5V Relay Boards

Here is an easy way to have the EZB control other electrical devices. 5v Relay Boards These relay boards will connect to the EZB and using a digital control, you can have them switch other items (AC or DC up to 10amp) on or off.

Data Ports

Hello to all, Well, I am out of data ports. Yes, I have used all 20 and need more. Is there a way to run two EZ-B's in conjunction? I don't think so. DJ, would you build me a duo? Is it feasable?

Servos Vs Motors

I recently gutted my daughters Hot Wheels Barbie chopper. I ended up with two 12 volt motor/gearboxes, wheels and a battery. The gearing is rather tight, as the chopper was designed to haul around a 35-40 lb child. When you speak of servos, is the term "motors" interchangeable with that? Will the EZ Board allow for direct hookup, or will...
