Hi All,

Firstly - I am fairly new to the Arduino but have experience in C.

Hi,

Sorry if this post is in the wrong place but I don't know where it should really go?

Does anyone know if there is a piece of hardware that I can connect to an Arduino that will give me an accurate temperature reading. 

Are thermistorsaccurateenough to get a reading from?

Thanks in advance,

James

Is there a particular rated (power) soldering station that I should look to buy?  Also - what tempreature should I usually run it at for day to day use?

Thanks in advance,

James

Hi,

Is it possibleto read serial data from more than one arduino at the same time (using a pc or similar) ?  If so - how would you rig it up andwhat extra equipment would you need (if any)?

I was trying to think if it was possible and then thought that you might get data collision?

Thanks in advance,

James

... but how do I work out what size resistor I need to use when working with an LED?  I have looked around on Google but I can't find a formula / answer?

 Please can someone advise?

I am a newbie and dont own any kit yet but I have decided that I want to start out with the Arduino as I am a C# programmer so the C language of the Arduino is like second nature to me!

I think I'm going to go for the Arduino Mega so I have plenty of connections and memory to work with.  Problem is that I can seem to find any starter kits that come with the Mega - does anyone know of any out there?  If not - is there a suggested shopping list of things I should be starting out with to practice on - if so, what do you suggest?

Hi All,

I have just joined this forum so this is my first post!

I really want to start building my own robot but I don't know where to start?  I am a C# programmer so have lots of experience of coding and I have had a look around and seen that the Picaxe chips are programable.

My question is - where should I start?  Is there a particular place I should start bearing in mind my C# knowledge?  Are there any kits out there that I can use C# with?

Thanks in advance for any advice you may have for me!

James.
