Title: Looking for gift for electrical engineer
Post by: kaystar10@yahoo.com on December 01, 2021, 08:58:52 PM
I discovered Tiny Circuits a few weeks ago want to purchase a product for my Dad, an electrical engineer who likes to take computers apart for fun (lol). I want to get him a project that will take him some time, and will be a bit challenging. Any recommendations?

Hello!

We have tons of kits that are great for gifts for anyone, including engineers or tech-interested people who can look deeper into them to either customize or alter functionality. Our TinyTV is our most popular kit that allows users to interact with hardware directly during assembly, paint the TinyTV case, and add their own videos to fully customize it. Here are our most popular kits including the TV: https://tinycircuits.com/collections/diy-kits

That being said, the TinyTV isn't much of a challenge and users don't need to see the background software if they're not interested in that. Many just like having a TinyTV that plays their favorite shows or movies.

Our other more hobbyist kits that include sensors and other boards are great options for someone working on a DIY project, or someone that wants to learn more about embedded components. The Wireling kits are pretty neat! If they like plants, the Plant Monitor Kit would be a good option. Otherwise, the TV is great for movie buffs, and the Arcade systems are great if your dad likes retro video games, or writing their own games!

Let me know if you have any questions or need help picking something you think they'll love to tinker with!

Best,
