Make: Electronics Kit 1 Economy (3rd Edition)
Covers Sections 1-3 (Experiments 1-14) In The Third Edition of Make: Electronics by Charles Platt
The ProTechTrader Make: Electronics Kit 1 Economy has been designed specifically for the 3rd Edition of Make: Electronics by Charles Platt. We worked with Charles Platt directly for our kits to follow his experiments, just the way he intended. While the economy kit saves room by omitting the bulkier tools needed, it is the perfect option for someone who already owns the main tools required or wishes to purchase them separately. The ProTechTrader electronics kits are highly recommended by the author and are a perfect introduction for the new electronics enthusiast. Rounding up all of the necessary components can be frustrating and time consuming, whereas we think learning electronics should be fun and exciting! The component shopping has been done so you can hit the ground running and complete all of the experiments in sections 1 through 3 of the 3rd edition book.

About ProTechTrader
Book Author Charles Platt
After developing both a personal and business relationship with Charles Platt in creating a kit for his second edition book, we were fortunate enough to work alongside Mr. Platt to develop the kit for this third edition of “Make: Electronics” and to unveil the kit to coincide with the release. Charles' down-to-earth, old-school approach to teaching electronics gives the reader an easy-to-understand way to learn basic electronic circuits and principles in the book series that continues to be an best-seller.
Our Small Business Story
We are a small family business from New Jersey. Our ProTechTrader mission is two-fold: teach and provide. We are dedicated to teaching the basics of electronics hobbyists through resources and personalized service. As a small private business, we pride ourselves on service that is personal and tailored to your specific needs. We are also dedicated to providing the sort of electronic components that are not always easily available.
Make: Electronics Third Edition Book
Completely re-written with photos and schematics replaced and updated, this latest iteration of Charles Platt's seminal beginner's guide to electronics continues the "Learning Through Discovery" model for which it has been praised since the first text was published in 2009. “Make: Electronics” is certainly the definitive guide to beginners’ D.I.Y. electronics.
