looked at there site, and they seem to have some interesting hobbiest projects. I am looking more at the high voltage and misc stuff, not the lasers. anyone had any experiences with them?

I expected a device that detected extra salt on the skin etc, and got a empty board that required placement and soldering of the components, with the 'detector' aspect being two pieces of wire, one in a loop and the other straight. The 'nervous' nelly to be tested would be lying I guess if they couldnt pass the loop over the straight piece of wire without touching the sides and the immediate loud buzzer.... :-?
Moral of the story.. While they do have some cool stuff, be careful while browsing the 'misc' catagories
