Picaxe chips and general electronics

PredaHawk,

Late last night/early this morning I got my PIC programmer setup working with a spare PC that didn't have a bunch of other programs on it, now I gotta try out a demo program and see how it goes....

My setup comes with an interface pod and a demo board; the interface pod connects to the PC thru the rs-232 port, and the demo board connects to that... the PIC is on the demo board.

They only sent one power pack and it needed two so I built one from a spare pack and the right fitting (of course, the spare pack's original little fitting didnt fit :p ), and now I can run the pod and the demo board.... now the demo board will have enough current to run a bunch of LEDs :lol:

Now I dig even further into Basic.... if y'all hear hollering and griping, its me

But when it works.... you will hear EUREKAAA!!!!

Nice to know that people have discovered the world of Picaxe chips! but I guess you can't go wrong for the price. Their forums are really helpful if you get stuck.

Here's my Picaxe controlled robot project I did a while ago:
