    As the title suggests, we have been ordering and receiving a LOT of parts. We received all of the header pins, which are pictured below. The power jacks and AC adapters are in the mail and our manufacturer has received all of the parts to assemble the energyShields. I even got to snap a picture [...]

    By Aaron Liebold|2014-07-22T08:38:59-04:00July 22nd, 2014|Arduino, energyShield, Kickstarter|0 Comments

    The last few weeks have been a really busy. As I mentioned in the last update, we had sent out for a prototype design. The PCBs and parts arrived the following week. Then we assembled them and put them through some rigorous testing. In the end... it worked PERFECTLY! In the last week and a [...]

    energyShield Update #15 – Another Prototype

    By Aaron Liebold|2014-07-22T08:38:18-04:00July 22nd, 2014|Arduino, energyShield, Kickstarter|0 Comments

    We've spent the last couple of weeks vetting the last prototype. We tested inputs from solar panels, wall adapters, and USB. We've varied the load on the energyShield. In all of this we found a few bugs. Trying to pinpoint the cause of these bugs was a challenge. Yikes! As you can see, it was [...]

    energyShield Update #14 – Quick Update

    By Aaron Liebold|2014-07-22T08:37:21-04:00July 22nd, 2014|Arduino, energyShield, Kickstarter|0 Comments

    As Mark Campbell reminded me, I'm overdue for a quick update. We have received the flashlights and the T-shirts! We also prototyped the next version of the energyShield and it seems that we have worked out the major bugs. However, we are still discovering and correcting some small bugs. It looks like we need to [...]

    From Our Customers

    Great battery pack, just what I needed for some light controls via Arduino, I have already ordered 5 more.
    Michael W., NightShade Customer
    This is the 2nd unit I have purchased from NightShade Electronics. It is very well designed, and of high quality. There are a few simple parts included as a kit to solder in place to fit one’s configuration need. The PDF instruction was very helpful in explaining how to apply it. I had some outlying questions, and the people at [email protected] were quite helpful.
    Geoff, NightShade Customer
    This was an excellent purchasing experience and the energyShield from Nightshade Electronics is an excellent product.
    Brad Bibler, NightShade Customer
    These are great for energy storage and provides excellent data. Robust and simple to code. I use them in my solar projects and wirelessly xmit data back into my house. Thanks again! Great product!
    Anonymous, NightShade Customer
    Purchased mine through the Kickstarter campaign, but am so glad that I have one. Need many more.
    John H., NightShade Customer
    Would highly recommend this. Very useful and online directions are an exact match at what you have. Have all readouts in a simple Library. Voltage, Current, Temp and Socket Voltage (Solar or Wall Plug). Using mine with Solar panel @ ~12V…the VMPP pot adjustment included is a great plus. Perfect! Nice shield!
    Anonymous, NightShade Customer
    This shield is awesome! Having a rechargeable battery with so many internal diagnostics greatly increases the functionality of my Arduino projects.
    Daniel, NightShade Customer
    This works exactly as described. I’ve integrated into a little Arduino weather station and it is working perfectly.
