## Description

desertcart.com: Make: Electronics 3rd Ed Kit 1 Economy - Beginner, Intermediate, & Advanced (Teen - Adult) Component Pack for The Experiments in Make: Electronics 3rd Ed by Charles Platt - Covers Sections 1-3 : Toys & Games

Review: Very Good, with Small Flaws - Original Review: Excellent kit, everything needed to work on the book. Good quality components and totally worth it for beginners, no sense penny pinching and going through the ordeal of sourcing all of these as a first timer. Edit: After getting half way through the book experiments and using the kit more, I stand by my original review, this kit is outstanding for a newbie starting out. But there are some flaws, I will describe 2 of them here: 1. One of the early experiments in the classic "make a battery with a lemon" experiment, and it requires a copper electrode and a galvanized steel electrode. These can be acquired as coated screws in most hardware stores, but they are not included in the kit. No mention is made of this anywhere so I spent a good 20 minutes trying to figure this out. 2. One of the experiments requires a 10(uf) ceramic capacitor. This is not included, there is only a 10(uf) electrolytic capacitor. This may seem dumb, but for electrolytics unlike ceramics have polarity, so which way do you fit them in? This is not covered because the book uses ceramics where it doesn't matter. If you have a couple of these in your circuit and you are a newbie, it will take a while to figure out. It strikes me that some compromises were made without explaining them to the user. Overall its a great kit, I went ahead and bought the next one as well (Make: More Electronics) so this is not a deal breaker. But it would be great if these compromises could be explained on the product page so I can acquire all I need at once. I am further shipping all this stuff home to South America so doing the shopping piecemeal as I discover what parts are missing is expensive and slow. Customer service is OUTSTANDING. Just make clear whats not in the pack guys.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: how many projects can you do with kit 1 economy?**
A: The ProTechTrader Make: Electronics 3rd Ed Kit 1 actually has all of the electronic components and parts to complete the first 14 experiments, (of the 30 in the full book) covering the first 3 sections of the latest edition of Make: Electronics by Charles Platt.   We worked with the author directly to have the perfect components for the electronic projects to work as he designed them.

**Q: Does kit 2 have all required items for section 4 and 5?  or does it assume you purchased kit 1 and have some items already.**
A: The ProTechTrader Make: Electronics Third Edition Kits we make for Charles' Platt book does include all of the required basic components for all of the experiments in all 5 sections of the book.    As you asked they are split into 2 kits for your convenience in purchasing and the Kit 2 does build upon Kit 1 meaning a few of the electronic components are reused to complete the experiments in Section 4 and Section 5.   We also offer an Ultimate Kit 1 & 2 Deluxe Bundle with a Carrying Case that includes some of the common tools and upgraded components as suggested by author Charles Platt in the book.

**Q: Which of the versions contain all the necessery chips?**
A: Kit 1 has all of the necessary components to complete sections 1-3 in the 3rd edition of the book while Kit 2 has all the components required to complete sections 4-5. So Kit 2 will have all of the integrated circuit chips as they are introduced in section 4.

**Q: Are there any kits for make: more electronics, the sequel to the 1st book, needing more ic's and others?**
A: We do not make any kits for the Make: More Electronics book at this time. However, it is something we are working towards. If you would like to send us a message, we may be able to help arrange certain components.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great book and kit
*by K***R on March 1, 2026*

This is an awesome book and kit, we’ve only started, but my son is really excited to learn and is enjoying the format

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great Kit - Buy a better multimeter
*by D***S on February 25, 2026*

I spent hours searching for components on the sites listed in the book and got nowhere. Some of the tools in the kit are not great quality, but glad they were included and cost of the kit was likely a factor. The multimeter he uses (photo on pg 5) is a BK precision 388B and is $175. Ouch. But, the multimeter in the kit doesn't have the basic settings you will need to do all of the experiments. Also, the soldering iron has a screw near the tip which will make it challenging to find a stand that will work. I recommend getting the kit first and then looking for a stand to avoid having to do a return. Great carrying box and super convenient to have all the parts you need clearly labeled. Have fun!
