This week's EYE ON NPI is going double-or-nothing, not only is this segment brought to you by DigiKey, the product this week is also from DigiKey: it's the DIGIKEY STANDARD Tool Kit DKS-TK1 (https://www.digikey.com/en/product-highlight/d/digikey-standard/standard-tool-kit) an all-in-one pack that contains tools and accessories to make electronics assembly & repair a breeze.
Part of DigiKey's new branding is stocking some of their own designs under the "DigiKey Standard" name (https://www.digikey.com/en/supplier-centers/digikey-standard). For example, DK has their own line of battery holders (https://www.digikey.com/en/products/category/battery-products/6?v=8174,4883,4957,1618,4937,4935,4783,5021), project prototyping boxes (https://www.digikey.com/en/products/category/boxes-enclosures-racks/27?v=8174,4883,4957,1618,4937,4935,4783,5021), and heat shrink (https://www.digikey.com/short/bbfzd04f) amongst others. This product is reminiscent of our "Ladyada Toolkit" (https://www.adafruit.com/product/136), a $100 pack for folks who kept asking us how to "get started soldering and assembling Adafruit kits"
Included is...
- Hakko Blue 508 soldering iron (https://www.digikey.com/short/3787w0h1) with conical SMT tip installed. An extra tip is also included. 120V 40W US plug
- Soldering iron rest with sponge
- Wire solder - 0.8mm diameter, 50 g
- Solder Wick - 2mm wide 5ft long
- Solder Sucker
- Screwdriver Kit - with Philips 00, 0 and 1 plus Flathead 2mm, 2.4mm and 3mm
- CAT III multimeter with leads, for resistance, continuity, voltage, and current measurement. A 9V battery is also included and should be installed before usage
- Fancy Wire stripper - with slots for 10 AWG through 24 AWG
- Wire Cutters
- Needle Nose Pliers
- Rugged hinged tote with labeled slots for all items
All together, a great starter kit for a student, school, technician or maker who needs a little bit of everything. In particular we like that DigiKey splurged on a Hakko quality iron and gives you an extra soldering tip!
