When Valve moved facilities, we came into possession of some pre-release VIVE gear. Not sure how present-day compatible they are, but you can find out for the value of the CR123a cells & chargers in the kit! solarbotics.com/product/0901…

Also: Lots of shame regarding lack of updates. Online presence maintenance is definitely a thing that I suck at. Sorry, internet.

OY, what a job. Finally finished the semi-annual updating of our Active-Tech virtual store. What you see at Solarbotics ain't always what we have in-person (they're converging, but slowly!). So take a browse here if you can't see it on the website. bit.ly/3EJp4Uf

Lithium Polymer batteries! Wow, we've finally found a decent vendor for these. Not the high-rate discharge ($$$) type, but great for electronic projects. We'll have them at the @activecalgary store soon too! bit.ly/3s0uIhl

We've got our new 3D printers! Of particular interest, we have the CR-30 "Printmill" conveyer-belt, and the LD-006 Resin Printers. Time to learn "Infinite-Y-Axis" and goop- printing! bit.ly/3443fhe
