littleBits mounting boards hold a finished circuit together so students can pick it up, turn it over and carry it without it falling apart. Press the feet of your Bits into the holes, and use the corner holes to fix a build permanently to a project. Boards come two to a pack and can be tiled for larger circuits — a staple of our littleBits accessories. Try it: mount a circuit vertically or upside down for a display, or fix one inside a cardboard build.

The littleBits number Bit displays information about the signal it receives on a two-digit, seven-segment screen. In read mode it shows a value from 00–99 or a voltage from 0.0–5.0; in count mode it counts up or down with each trigger and can be reset — a great bridge into data and maths within a circuit. Pair it with the rest of our littleBits output modules. Try it: use count mode with a button to tally presses, or read mode with a sensor to display a live reading.

The littleBits USB power is a small but capable power Bit — connect the included USB cable to a computer or phone charger and it sends power to your whole circuit, with a red LED to show when it's on. You'll get around 500 mA from a computer's USB port, or up to about 1 A from a USB wall adapter. Browse the rest of our littleBits power modules for other options. Try it: connect it to an LED for the simplest possible littleBits circuit. (It supplies power only — there's no data connection.)

littleBits powerSnaps supply power to an open input without needing extra forks, splits or power supplies — a tidy way to keep more complex builds simple. Each pack includes three powerSnaps, and they work with the rest of our littleBits power modules. Try it: use a powerSnap to feed a spare input when your circuit branches in several directions.

The littleBits pressure sensor is touch-activated — give its pad a squeeze and the harder you press, the more signal it sends. It's a hands-on way to introduce variable (analogue) inputs, and works with any of our littleBits input modules. Try it: put it before a vibration or DC motor to control how much something shakes or spins.

The littleBits proximity sensor detects objects in front of it and can tell whether something is near or far — a great starting point for automation and robotics projects. Combine it with other input Bits to build responsive inventions. Try it: use it to make a self-navigating vehicle that avoids obstacles, or a hands-free instrument you play by waving.

The littleBits pulse is like an electronic heartbeat: it sends out a steady stream of ON signals, and you can speed them up or slow them down with the included screwdriver. It's a simple way to add timing and rhythm to a circuit alongside our other input Bits. Try it: use it to make an LED blink steadily, or to drive a repeating motion in a build.

The littleBits remote trigger lets students control a circuit with an ordinary infrared remote — point almost any remote at its sensor and press a button to activate the Bits that follow. It adds a wireless element to builds and works with the rest of our littleBits input modules. Try it: build a remote-controlled light, or a gate that opens at the press of a button.

The littleBits RGB LED is an adjustable colour light — turn its red, green and blue channels with the included screwdriver to mix almost any colour you like. It's a favourite for adding a personal touch to a build, alongside our other output Bits. Try it: match the light to the colour of your creation, or fade between colours as part of a display.

The littleBits screwdriver is the small tool used to adjust any Bit with a micro adjuster — like the sensitivity on a light or sound sensor, or the colour channels on the RGB LED. It's an inexpensive but essential part of the kit, and sits with the rest of our littleBits accessories. Try it: keep one on hand to fine-tune sensors and dials as students test and refine their builds.

The littleBits servo is a controllable motor that can swing back and forth or turn to a set position, giving students precise, repeatable movement in their builds. Its cross-axle shaft fits any littleBits accessory with a cross-axle opening, and it works alongside our other output Bits. Try it: attach a flag or arm to make it wave, or use it to steer and point a moving model.

The littleBits servo mount bucket attaches the servo motor to a littleBits mounting board, holding it steady so it can push, pull or turn without shifting around. It's a simple fix for making servo builds more reliable, and part of our littleBits accessories. Try it: mount the servo firmly to build a moving arm, lever or gate.

littleBits bitShoes are small hook-and-loop mounts that stick to the bottom of your Bits, so you can attach a circuit to fabric, felt, cardboard and other materials — no tape or glue needed. They're a simple way to build Bits into wearables, puppets and craft projects, and are part of our littleBits accessories. Try it: stick Bits onto a felt banner or a cardboard model so a finished invention holds together and can be handled. HOOK & LOOP Shoes come with an adhesive-backed Hook & Loop strip. The strip can be cut to any size you desire and affixed to clothing or fabric to enhance your wearable project. ADHESIVE Shoes can be secured onto any surface -- paper, cardboard, plastic – you name it! [Adhesive backing is one-time use only.] MAGNET shoes allow you to adhere your circuit to any magnetic surface--like your fridge! VARIETY PACK comes with 5 Adhesive, 5 Magnet, and 5 Hook & Loop; everything you need for experimentation and building.

The littleBits slide dimmer is a slider that sends a smoothly changing (analogue) signal as you move it — perfect for fine control over things like brightness, volume or motor speed. It's one of the most useful littleBits input modules for adding a "dial" to a build. Try it: place it before an LED to fade the light up and down, or before a DC motor to control how fast it spins.

The littleBits sound trigger reacts to noise — a clap, a shout or music — and sends an ON signal when the sound is loud enough. You can adjust its sensitivity with the included screwdriver, so it works in quiet or noisy rooms. Combine it with our other input Bits for sound-activated inventions. Try it: build a clap-activated light, or a noise meter that lights a bargraph when the room gets too loud.

The littleBits split sends a single input to two wired outputs, giving you flexible ways to branch a circuit — for example, using one control to drive two separate parts of a build. It sits with the rest of our littleBits wire and logic modules. Try it: use one keyboard to control two oscillators, or simply treat it as a wire Bit when you only need one output.

The littleBits temperature sensor measures how warm or cold it is and sends a signal that changes with the temperature — a simple way to bring real-world data into a circuit. Pair it with the rest of our littleBits input modules to build responsive projects. Try it: connect it to a number Bit to make a digital thermometer, or to a buzzer for a "too hot" alarm.

The littleBits threshold only lets a signal through once it passes a level you set with the screwdriver — turning a gradually changing input into a clear on/off point. It's a great introduction to decision-making in a circuit, and sits with our other input Bits. Try it: put it after a light sensor so a lamp only switches on once a room gets dark enough, not the moment the light dips.

The littleBits toggle switch is a simple manual switch: flip it one way to send an ON signal, the other way for OFF. It's the most straightforward way to give students hands-on control of when a circuit runs, and works with the rest of our littleBits input modules. Try it: use it as a simple power switch for a build, so a light, motor or buzzer only runs when you want it to.

littleBits wheels attach to the DC motor so students can turn a circuit into something that moves — cars, buggies and other rolling inventions. They fit onto the motor (using the motorMate) for a quick, reliable build. Find them among our littleBits accessories. Try it: fit two wheels to DC motors to build a self-driving car, then add a proximity sensor so it steers around obstacles.

The littleBits wire Bit lets you physically separate parts of a circuit, so you can position Bits exactly where you want them — like putting a light at the top of a model while the controls sit at the base. It's a building block of neat, flexible layouts, alongside our other wire and logic Bits. Try it: use it to run a signal up, around or across a larger build without everything sitting in one line.
