If they discontinued to replace a newer kit that's even better. The original kit could be made so small if they used SMD components and used a 2 layer PCB

I can make 2 versions of the JayCar Kit if there's demand for it.

First one which is exactly identical to the Jaycar one (using through hole components).
Second one which uses all SMD components and is 1/4 - 1/5th the size.

Only issue is the 1st one would cost a lot more to make because of the pcb size so that may take longer to get done.

The circuit itself is pretty straightforward.

Duno what the story will be with copyright though. Pretty sure the 1st version may be an issue...

A mate showed me the new version in their print catalogue just recently - the old one would have been discontinued as its not the same item

It seemed illogical that they'd zero out stock and not supersede it. If you find a link maybe throw it up but my local Jaycar are still unaware of a replacement

Jaycar printed catalogue is drool worthy haha

Depends if it's worth the cost, prob not with the new one being $39. So far yet though the code doesn't return anything on both wholesale or retail sites. Must still be gathering stock.
