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/SS110060762:1.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 The [BBC micro:bit](https://core-electronics.com.au/micro-bit-v2-australia.html) is a pocket-sized computer that can easily realize your creativity without much electrical and coding knowledge. There are numerous possibility of creation you can dig out by micro:bit, from robots to musical instruments. However if you want to create more things, just 1 micro:bit is barely not enough, That’s why we introduce the Grove Inventor Kit for micro:bit to you. The Grove Inventor Kit for Micro:bit brings endless possibilities to your micro:bit. The core board in this kit is the Grove shield for micro:bit, with which you can use plenty of Grove modules including sensors, display, actuator to interact with micro:bit. If you never used and have no idea what grove is, here is the introduction of Grove. All you need to know is that with Grove, there is no need of soldering or jump wires any more. Your prototyping will be easier and much more convenient. We have already prepared 8 grove modules to let you get started with micro:bit. With these grove modules, you can measure distance and display it, use gesture to play different music, or make a smart guard for your desk or room. We have prepared all the necessary libraries (packages) for free download. If you are a beginner to micro:bit, don’t worry because we have also prepare 12 different project which can teach you step by step. If you are an advanced user, this kit will help you more creative project than others. #### NOTE: The output voltage of micro:bit is around 3.0V, use microbit or AA battery to power the circuit may cause malfunction of Grove modules which requires high input voltage and drive current(e.g Grove - Ultrasonic Ranger). In order to make these kind of Grove function well, please use the micro-USB port on Grove shield for microbit to power the circuit. **Features** - Works with both the [micro:bit V1](https://core-electronics.com.au/micro-bit-by-bbc.html) and [micro:bit V2](https://core-electronics.com.au/micro-bit-v2-australia.html)[1](https://core-electronics.com.au/#Note1) - Cool extension shield with rich and convenient peripherals; - 8 well selected Grove modules for working with micro:bit; - 12 awesome projects to let you get started quickly; - Well documented instruction. **12 Projects** - Control the Light - Sunshine micro:bit - LED Bar Controller - Music Player - Gesture Recognition - Smart Guard - Shake Counter - Ultrasonic Meter - Rainbow on The Desk - Guardians of The Secrets in Your Bag - Guardians of The Secrets in Your Room - Magic Musician **Technical Details** - Weight: 329.5g - Battery: Exclude **Part List** - 1x Grove Shield for micro:bit - 1x Grove - Rotary Angle Sensor (P) - 1x Grove - Speaker - 1x Grove - Ultrasonic Ranger - 1x Grove - Light Sensor v1.2 - 1x Grove - WS2812 Waterproof LED Strip - 30 LEDs 1 meter - 1x Grove - Gesture - 1x Grove - 4-Digit Display - 1x Grove - Red LED - 1x Micro USB Cable - 48cm - 1x 12 Projects Manual - 10x Alligator Cable - 7x Grove Cable **Documents** - [Grove Inventor Kit for micro:bit User Manual](https://core-electronics.com.au/attachments/localcontent/Groveinventorkitformicrobitusermanual_2007232a434.pdf) - micro:bit Getting Started Videos - About micro:bit - micro:bit Hardware - micro:bit Apps - [Grove Shield for microbit\_eagle file](https://core-electronics.com.au/attachments/localcontent/202001587_GroveShieldforBBCmicrobitV1_120962ac356.zip) - [Grove Modules for microbit v2](https://github.com/SeeedDocument/Bazzar_Attachment/raw/master/110060762/Grove%20Modules%20for%20microbit%20v2.xlsx) 1 There may be some rare cases where there are incompatibilities.
