Notice. New forum software under development. It's going to miss a few functions and look a bit ugly for a while, but I'm working on it full time now as the old forum was too unstable. Couple days, all good. If you notice any issues, please contact me.

Hi all.  

I have more then 60 of these modules now(and growing), which I no longer need.
Free to a good home, all I ask, is that you pay for the postage cost.

Not available to American members due to excessive shipping and tariff costs(out of NZ), sorry.  

But anyone in any other country.....

You don't have to take all of them - happy to share about.
Just reply here with how many you want, and I can reserve for you.

22pcs RP2040 Tiny (needs the little FPC cable and USB-C adapter board)
41pcs RP2040 Zero

I am collecting up more of the Zero modules on a weekly basis, as I systematically replace these with my own RT2040 design, as the WS modules don't seem to much like the taste of RF, which is a project that I was using them all in.

I am sure they would be fine, in a NON-RF type application.

G'day Grogster,
Many thanks for the generous offer, can I put my name on 10 of the RP2040Zero if that is not being too greedy, they are a great little module for testing my many maniac ideas  

There must be half a dozen here flashing away at me running different things on test  

Regards,
Lyle.

@ Mozzie - yes, that's fine.  Please send me a PM with your delivery address, and I'll get back to you in a PM about postage cost.

It won't be much to just hop across the ditch between us!
