.....HOT DEALS

.....HOT DEALS
go right to the catalog! Skip the INTRO, Go RIGHT to the CATALOG!

* This is the equipment that is cheap. Incredible deals on great left-overs, refurbed older gear, as is stuff, oddball, weird, left over from other projects, accidental purchases, of mysterious origin, or we simply don't know what it's real purpose is. Scroll down to have a look! You deserve a treat today. How can you resist??

* NAVIGATION: To make your life easier, and help you find exactly what you want, we have broken the on-line equipment catalogs into smaller sections. Just CLICK on the item you are looking for at the left, to see the matching catalog. Large graphical catalogs are a bit SLOW, so please give them a bit of time to load. The top header of each catalog is largely the same, so don't think you are stuck in one place!

* ORDERING: You can order anything here just by picking up the phone, and calling +1 (250) 769-1834 during normal office hours, 8am to 5pm, PST. We process VISA/MC orders immediately. You can also send your order by FAX at: +1 (250) 769-4106. Or, EMAIL YOUR ORDER HERE!

* SHIPPING: Canadian ExpressPost (NOT regular mail, this is like US Global Priority/Courier) Rates: To USA destinations, shipping and packing minimum of $23 for any insured, trackable air shipment up to 1kg (typical delivery within 5 business days), Canadian destinations are typically $10-14 (delivery within 2-3 business days). It is also possible to ship uninsured, untracked, small packets (250g max.) for roughly $12-14 to the USA, but delivery delays can be up to 8 weeks according to the US Postal Service, and so we cannot recommend it. Virtually all of our shipment failures have been because of this method, so it should be used with caution. We have an extraordinarily good success rate (better than 99.9%) with ExpressPost, so we highly recommend it, especially for one-of-a-kind items. It is cheaper than couriers, trackable, more reliable, fully insured and goes almost everywhere.

Shipping/handling to Europe, Australia, South America and other overseas areas via Canada Post International ExpressPost air mail insured service or Canada Post International Air Service where ExpressPost is not offered is $51.00 for parcels up to 500 grams/1 pound. Shipping and packing via regular mail to these locales is $22.00 for parcels weighing up to 500 grams/1 pound. This service offers no guarantee, insurance or tracking and we then accept no liability for loss or damage. Transit times are unpredictable by this method.

E-Mail Susan if you want a quote for shipping to other destinations, or for something heavy. Sorry, we can't safely send individual small parts in a regular letter envelope, they get destroyed by the automated handling equipment.

We can also ship FedEx or UPS when time or weight is critical, and over-night FedEx P1 shipping is available. Note that our pick-up cut-off time is noon for FedEx. There is a packing charge for large equipment, see the FAQ for details. If we have your valid data on file, you can just click on the ORDER email link to place an order and indicate your approval to bill, and we will do the rest. If this is the first time you have dealt with us, you can phone (250) 769-1834 or FAX +1 (250) 769-4106 the billing info, or send it by the email link, as you prefer.
We accept VISA/MC or international money order
* CONDITION: To answer your questions, YES, we completely check and inspect all used equipment, and do not offer any we feel is substandard. That gear is normally scrapped, broken down for parts, or may get offered as-is in the HOT DEALS section, with the unit's condition clearly identified. If there are any marks or detracting features, we clearly state them in the listing. Before shipment, we burn in the equipment for 24 hrs. again and re-check to be sure it is good prior to shipment.

* The CATALOG will appear below shortly!
Don't forget these illustrated sections take a few seconds to load, but they are worth the wait!

1 Fascinating Pound !
CLICK to see what's INSIDE!
CLICK to look INSIDE the Bag!		 Wahoo, Electronic Grab bags are BACK!
We keep accumulating miscellaneous parts that are extras, come with bigger lots, and are being purged from our stock. At the same time, many people grumble about paying the minimum shipping charge when they ship something small. Well, we have the technology to solve this problem. We will add a 1 Pound grab bag of new parts (mainly, there might be the odd pulled or used but useful item) to fill up the extra weight in your shipment! Some of the material is pretty spectacular, you will certainly get good value for your money. They include resistors, capacitors, ICs, chokes, semiconductors, switches, assemblies, and all kinds of mystery items, NO TWO BAGS ARE ALIKE. We have four categories, electronic parts, mechanical/hardware, vacuum tubes (will be some used types in every bag), and connectors/cables.
Any type, US$15. If you want a 1 Pound bag by itself to add to any order, it's the same price. The stuff inside is really excellent material, you won't be disappointed!

JPL Parts, CLICK to visit! 		JPL, CLICK to visit!
Every so often, we get something quite strange, and this batch of parts is exceptionally unusual, even for us. I was surprised to find a large lot of genuine space qualified parts hiding inside a large military parts buy we made, covered in JPL tracking paperwork, flight ready tags and inspection stamps. There are parts from TIROS, TIRN, TOPX, GALILEO and other JPL space projects. None of these are rejected, they are just obsolete parts, spares surplused out, and should be good to go if you are hand-making that small spacecraft in your basement, or have a Gallileo space probe that needs repair.

S0157D/CYHC-42964-51, Amazingly powerful 2 inch diameter (4 inch long) 12VDC/0.18A gearmotors (approx. 1.4 rotations per second at 12VDC), with massive torque. These motors will run down to 1.8V/0.11A (with approx. 1 rotation per 12 seconds), still with torque so high you cannot stall the shaft by hand. Brush style motors with a reducing gearbox, they are excellent for all kinds of electromechanical devices, with enough rest friction to allow the motor to act as a brake on the drive shaft. There is also a tach/generator for speed control (yellow wires) which outputs approx. 9.29V/373Hz at 12VDC, and 1.2V/46Hz at 1.8V of motor drive. Red and black wires for the motor, with integral beads for RF suppression, and Faston connectors in the positive lead to allow a hash filter to be inserted. Tapped holes on both ends of the motor for attachment, and the shaft (D-flatted) is 0.25 inches in diameter by 0.65 inches long. Fully reversible, with all leads floating, draws 0.3A at 12VDC heavily loaded on the drive shaft.

12VDC Fan +T		 1.6"/40mm/12VDC FAN +T
Sanyo Denki FINE ACE 20 plus alarm assembly
40mm square DC Brushless fan, 12VDC, 0.11A, 20mm inch thick, with Tach output, flying red/black/yellow leads soldered into the PCB. Medium 0.225 cubic meters/min airflow (approx. 8CFM), 5-blade design, 32dBa noise level. UL/CSA/TUV Listed fan. Assembled into a fan/PSU alert module from Bird Products Corp., Assembly 50660, Rev. G. This can be run from 24 to 11VDC (or even less, but fan speed suffers). The fan is fixed at 12V or less (via the regulator), and has an integral fault alarm if it becomes stalled, which sounds a loud acoustic transducer.

A very handy assembly, this has input power leads with TYCO FASTON double connectors that allows a second connection to each lead. Very well made, and easily disassembled if the alarm is used separately from this fan, as it should work with almost any 12V fan that has a tach output. This assembly would be perfect to ventilate and cool a constantly charging 12V battery pack in a UPS or similar system. Each one is indivudually bagged and sealed in an anti-static bag for protection.
