Heck yeah! With BLE now included in modern smart phones and tablets... ## Pricing - **Price:** $30.10 (inc GST) — $27.36 AUD, exc GST - **Quantity discounts:** 10+ $26.55 (exc GST) · 50+ $26.00 (exc GST) ## Availability & dispatch - Out of stock — the product page offers email notification when it returns. ## How to buy - **Build a cart:** compose `https://core-electronics.com.au/cart/link?items=ADA2487:1` (comma-separated SKU:qty pairs) and share the link. Opening it shows a confirmation page with live pricing and stock before anything is added to the cart. - **Verify the cart first:** fetch `https://core-electronics.com.au/cart/link/ADA2487:1.md` for live line prices (inc & exc GST, quantity discounts applied), stock and dispatch estimates, and totals. Append `/to/{AU-postcode}` (or `/to/{country-code}:{postcode}`) before `.md` for delivery options and prices to that destination. Unknown, retired, or out-of-stock SKUs are flagged. (Query form `cart/link.md?items=...` also works but some robots parsers refuse query strings here.) - **Checkout** is completed on-site and includes a captcha at the payment step. Share the cart link; checkout takes it from there. - **Search the catalogue:** `https://core-electronics.com.au/search/{query}.md` (URL-encode the query; pages 2-3 at `search/{query}/{page}.md`; `search.md?q=` also works) - **Payment methods, purchase orders, policies and contact details:** https://core-electronics.com.au/llms.txt ## Description Would you like to add powerful and easy-to-use Bluetooth Low Energy to your wearable FLORA project? Heck yeah! With BLE now included in modern smart phones and tablets, its fun to add wireless connectivity. So what you really need is the new Adafruit Flora Bluefruit LE! The Flora Bluefruit LE makes it easy to add Bluetooth Low Energy connectivity to your Flora. Sew 4 traces (or solder 4 wires) and BooM! Bluetooth Low Energy! **Get started fast with the Bluefruit App!** Using Adafruit's Bluefruit [iOS App](https://learn.adafruit.com/bluefruit-le-connect-for-ios) or [Android App](https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.adafruit.bluefruit.le.connect&hl=en), you can quickly get your interactive project prototyped by using your iOS or Android phone/tablet as a controller. Adafruit have a [color picker](https://learn.adafruit.com/bluefruit-le-connect-for-ios/controller#color-picker), [quaternion/accelerometer/gyro/magnetometer or location (GPS)](https://learn.adafruit.com/bluefruit-le-connect-for-ios/controller#sensors), and an 8-button [control game pad](https://learn.adafruit.com/bluefruit-le-connect-for-ios/controller#control-pad). After you connect to the Bluefruit, you can send commands wirelessly in under 10 minutes For advanced hackers, they'll be very happy to use the standard Nordic UART RX/TX connection profile. In this profile, the Bluefruit acts as a data pipe, that can 'transparently' transmit back and forth from your iOS or Android device. You can use our [iOS App](https://learn.adafruit.com/bluefruit-le-connect-for-ios) or [Android App](https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.adafruit.bluefruit.le.connect&hl=en), or [write your own to communicate with the UART service](https://learn.adafruit.com/introducing-the-adafruit-bluefruit-le-uart-friend/uart-service). **You can do a lot more too!** - [The Bluefruit can also act like an HID Keyboard](https://learn.adafruit.com/introducing-the-adafruit-bluefruit-le-uart-friend/hidkeyboard) (for devices that support BLE HID) - [Can become a BLE Heart Rate Monitor](https://learn.adafruit.com/introducing-the-adafruit-bluefruit-le-uart-friend/heartratemonitor) (a standard profile for BLE) - you just need to add the pulse-detection circuitry - [Turn it into a UriBeacon](https://learn.adafruit.com/introducing-the-adafruit-bluefruit-le-uart-friend/uribeacon), the Google standard for Bluetooth LE beacons. Just power it and the Bluefruit will bleep out a URL to any nearby devices with the UriBeacon app installed. - [Built in over-the-air bootloading capability so they can keep you updated with the hottest new firmware](https://learn.adafruit.com/introducing-the-adafruit-bluefruit-le-uart-friend/dfu-updates). Use any Android or iOS device to get updates and install them! [This is the same module and firmware as Adafruit's BLE UART Friend](https://core-electronics.com.au/adafruit-bluefruit-le-uart-friend-bluetooth-low-energy-ble.html) but in a nice rounded shape, so you can switch between the two and have the same working code. This Bluefruit LE does not have the hardware flow control pins (Flora doesn't need 'em) so it is best used with a microcontroller with hardware serial support (like, y'know, the Flora!)
