We used to have a few different stores that were somewhat like it, like CompUSA, Fry's, Circuit City, Radio Shack... now all those are gone, or a former shell of what they were. Micro Center is IMO better than all of the above, and tends to have a wider selection of parts for any of the types of project they support! And they don't need to pay me to say that. Just wish they had more locations.

@@JeffGeerling I'd say the craziest thing is that not only is it still supported but some folks are still using them daily and most of the older models are still available for purchase, so it is so easy to keep doing so! I was until recently still using two Pi1's... Finally had the SD card fail in the one remaining original pre memory upgrade version and the last of my other 26pin GPIO age ones so until a week ago or so I'd have been one of them... And I expect I'll be one again soon, as after a spruce up I think one of those projects is going right back into use...

I've spent many hours in the Norcross, GA MicroCenter store. I noticed that when I connected to the store's WiFi that I couldn't connect to my VPN. The associates informed me that their network is VERY locked down. So, I'm not surprised that you had _issues_ on their network. I'm also not surprised that given their techie clientele that their network had to be super locked down. BTW, great video. I have relatives in Charlotte and now I have somewhere to hide out when I need to escape. 😆

We lost Tandy years ago then Maplin recently, in the UK. RS Components is good, my nearest is in Bristol is about 35 miles. Was lookig for Amphenol MS type connectors recently, got them from Mouser, amazingly they were dispached from Texas and delivered 2 days later, they also happened to be the best price. I buy nearly all components on line, usually on eBay. Any thing built for outside or mobile equipment gets military spec parts as most of my jobs involved them, they last longr and are more rugged. Thanks Jeff for another great video.

This is a really helpful resource. I've been watching your videos for a few years now and I'll say since buying a pi some 8 to 10 years ago, half the things I learnt was from Jeef Geeling, and the other half has been from the rest of the internet. I do wish I have some retail like this near me though that stocks plenty of pi parts. Here in Australia, my most reliable places so far has been two online retailers, one in NZ and one all the way in UK, and with the exception of some shop I stumbled across in Akihabara in Tokyo, I've yet to go into a shop where I can look at all the parts and just pick the ones I want. On the other hand, having a place like that near me would send me broke.

I had the TV Tuner hat. It worked fine when plugged into my Pi. But I wanted it in a case, a TV, and they couldn't exist stacked, so I made a custom wire loom that was only about 6 inches (150mm) long, and... the hat didn't work anymore. I had the thought that maybe the wire is too long, but I can't do anything about that, but it's probably interference... So I individually wrapped each wire with aluminium foil, and then connected one end to ground, and it worked fine.

I tried several alternatives and regret the time I wasted. I ended using a Canakit 45W supply which made all the power warnings go away. The 5 is noticeably faster than earlier models and I believe forced cooling will be necessary in the long run. Thanks for sharing your experience-

Thanks for the video. I was in Micro Center in Houston yesterday and the RPI and RPI accessories display and inventory were pathetic. I'll shop online for now.

Got the crazy idea this morning to make Raspberry Pi motion-activated security camera so I went on the MC website and ordered 9 parts (Zero 2W, PIR, Camera 3, etc). All items showed at least 2 in-stock (Aisle 12). So I ordered and jumped in the car for the 1 hour drive to Tustin. 30 minutes later I get an email saying only 6 are in stock and to check inventory online and reorder. I checked. They still show in-stock. So I go to call to confirm that the email is correct (not just that someone hasn't thoroughly searched Aisle 12), but NO PHONE #. Yeah. You cannot call a store. Ahhhhh! 😱 Just a little a little frustrating. Gonna order from PiShop since they have a version with Pre-soldered headers for only $5 more.

Yeah... maker section stuff can be dicey. I've had a few orders come back as having no stock. The problem is they normally only have 2-3 of some of those items in stock regularly. The organization in those shelves is a little spotty, and customers sometimes drop stuff down below where things get lost to time. I'm usually lucky enough to find the thing the employee couldn't, but I do wish each MC would have someone more focused on those shelves in the maker section.

I had a client who's network went down, and they needed a temporary network component to get the facility back online... only to find it was two days before the Charlotte MC opening (I think it opened on a Fri). So I was able to "overnight" ship the parts in the same time it'd take to wait for the opening. I thought it was ironic/funny that it was that Charlotte store you mention, b/c that was a frustrating week lol I do love this type of video tho. This was a long learning exp for me when I first got into Pi's

Hey Jeff thanks for sharing this video ❤, question for you: do you actually recommend to get the air quality sensorbshown in this video for house hold usage? Keep on thinkering! ❤❤
@JeffGeerling
@JeffGeerling 9 күн бұрын
They seem to be pretty decent; I personally have some AirGradient monitors in my house, but would happily deploy one of these HATs with a Pi for a spot check. It seems to use decent sensors all around, though I haven't been able to get the MEMS microphone working for audio levels yet.

Hey Microcenter. We need one in Maine. I would of bought my Korad bench supply off you among other things. You'd probably want a retail space in Portland. Closest one we have seemed to be Massachusetts.

Oh, yeah, there isn't much here in Greenville, NC in the way of electronics. There is a Robotics group at ECU and you could have contacted the Pitt Pirate FIRST Robotics group. They may have had some parts you could have used. Wish there was a Micro Center here though.
