This is a super-neat design, and I'm glad someone has made it. But I would never buy it, in part because of the cost. It is really neat though.

- type0 3y agoYou need to tinker often for it to be useful. I find less and less usage for the breadboards when you can simulate most of the things in software and then put it on the prototype board in a neat package
- synecdoche 3y agoWhich simulation software would you recommend?
- ansible 3y agoI don't have a simulation software recommendation, though /u/type0 might. I would recommend just using an "expensive" prototype board, that costs maybe $20 USD, instead of over that costs $4. There are different levels of quality with regard to the little clips that grip the wires and components. The wires are really the least problem in experimenting with electronics.
- a_rabid_squid 3y agoI actually love using Falstad, it's fairly simple which is great because usually I just want to look at the ideal behavior of things to get the circuit working before I worry about the exact characteristics of every part. This link will take you to that crosspoint switch demo. https://tinyurl.com/yr34sym6 https://tinyurl.com/yr34sym6 https://wokwi.com/ https://wokwi.com/ is great for simple, digital only stuff. https://fritzing.org/ https://fritzing.org/ will kind of lay out the PCB for you, but it's kind of a pain in the ass. Wokwi and Fritzing are more "Breadboard Simulators" than real circuit simulators, but they do have their place.
