micro:bit Basic Kit — ElecFreaks Beginner
$37.00 ex GST
($40.70 inc GST)
The cheapest way into micro:bit electronics, and a sensible first purchase for a Year 3 or 4 class. Five plug-in components clip onto the basic:bit board, and every one of them works with MakeCode's default blocks — no extension packages to install, no wiring to get wrong.
What's included:
basic:bit breakout board with an onboard buzzer and three GVS groups (P0, P1, P2)
LED module and crash sensor
Potentiometer and ADKey five-button module
180° servo motor
Battery box, USB cable and printed user guide
micro:bit board is not included — add a micro:bit V2 at checkout
What students practise:
Connecting a component and seeing code control something physical
Reading an input — a button press, a dial position, a bump
Block coding in Microsoft MakeCode with no setup beyond opening the editor
The habit of changing one thing and testing it
Six documented projects on the ElecFreaks wiki, including a light controller, a Morse code sender and a function selector. Recommended by ElecFreaks for Years 3 to 4. Because it is our lowest-priced kit, it also works well as a class set where budget is tight.
micro:bit Starter Kit — 24 Parts, 14 Lessons
$51.00 ex GST
($56.10 inc GST)
This is the kit for students who should understand the circuit, not just the code. Twenty-four components and a breadboard adapter, with fourteen lessons that build up from lighting a single LED to driving a motor — each one explaining what the component does and why the circuit works.
What's included:
micro:bit breadboard adapter and breadboard
LEDs, RGB LED and a rainbow LED module
Button, self-locking switch, trimpot and photocell
Temperature sensor, buzzer, 180° servo and DC motor
Jumper leads, resistors and connecting hardware — 24 component types in total
micro:bit board and batteries are not included — add a micro:bit V2 at checkout
The fourteen lessons:
LED, button, trimpot and photocell — the basics of input and output
RGB LED, self-lock switch, temperature sensor and servo
Buzzer, motor and rainbow LED
Accelerometer, compass and ambient light, using the micro:bit's own sensors
All fourteen lessons are documented on the ElecFreaks wiki. The kit supports MakeCode block coding, Python and JavaScript, and works with both micro:bit V1 and V2, so it stays useful as students progress.
micro:bit Starter Kit + 10 Academy Lessons
$80.00 ex GST
($88.00 inc GST)
The best first step into physical computing. A BBC micro:bit V2 arrives in the post, and ten self-paced lessons in the Sammat Online Academy take a child from their first flashing LED to a working step counter. No prior coding needed.
What's included:
1 x micro:bit GO pack (V2) — board, battery pack with 2 x AAA batteries and a USB cable
10 self-paced lessons in the Sammat Online Academy, with written guides and video walkthroughs
The V2 board adds a built-in microphone and speaker, a touch logo button and a power button

Text blocks — a scrolling name badge
A and B buttons — flashing happy and sad faces
Sound and the logo button — an emotion badge that makes noise
Shake and tilt — reading the accelerometer
Light sensor — turning the LED display into an input
Dice, and rock paper scissors — two lessons on randomness
Step counter and thermometer — using the built-in sensors
You will need a computer, phone or tablet with internet access to load the Microsoft MakeCode editor. Headphones, crocodile clip leads and conductive materials like foil and paper clips are useful but not required. Work through the lessons at your own pace — there is no timetable and no expiry.
micro:bit Tinker Kit — ElecFreaks Octopus
$88.00 ex GST
($96.80 inc GST)
The Tinker Kit solves the problem that stops most classroom electronics lessons: messy breadboard wiring. Every module plugs into the Octopus:bit board with a keyed connector, so a class spends the lesson coding rather than hunting for a loose wire.
What's included:
Octopus:bit breakout board with a micro:bit edge connector
OLED display, PIR motion sensor and soil moisture sensor
ADKeypad, crash sensor and buzzer module
Three LED modules, a potentiometer and a servo motor
Crystal battery box (2 x AAA), micro USB cable and nine connection cables
Full colour printed guide covering five projects, with more online
micro:bit board is not included — add a micro:bit V2 at checkout
What students practise:
Choosing the right sensor for a problem from a box with several options
Reading a value, setting a threshold and triggering an output
Block coding in MakeCode, with officially certified extension packages
Debugging behaviour rather than debugging wiring
The Octopus:bit switches voltage level on some GPIO ports, so 5V sensors work alongside 3V ones. More than thirty documented projects on the ElecFreaks wiki cover a music machine, a plant monitor, a fish feeder, a lie detector and a maze game. Developed with Tinkercademy in Singapore, and used in classrooms in a number of countries.
micro:bit Experiment Box — Circuits & Code
$86.00 ex GST
($94.60 inc GST)
The Experiment Box puts circuit design and coding in the same lesson. Fourteen components sit on one printed board, connected with banana plug leads that push in firmly and pull out cleanly — the same connectors used in school physics labs, so students learn a habit that transfers.
What's included:
Single-board layout with 14 components, connected by banana plug leads
NTC temperature sensor and photocell
LEDs, RGB LED and a rainbow LED ring
Buzzer, 180° servo and DC motor
Button, self-locking button and trimpot
MOSFET transistor and resistors of several values
micro:bit board and batteries are not included — add a micro:bit V2 at checkout
What students practise:
Current, voltage, resistance and Ohm's law, with a working circuit in front of them
Reading a resistor colour code and predicting what a circuit will do
Block coding in MakeCode to control components they have wired themselves
Designing a circuit, then designing the program that drives it
Eleven documented cases plus two circuit design exercises on the ElecFreaks wiki. Usefully, the components can be explored as a plain circuits lesson with no micro:bit at all — which makes this the one kit here that serves a physics class as readily as a digital technologies one.
micro:bit Ring:bit Car v2 — Beginner Robot Kit
$40.00 ex GST
($44.00 inc GST)
The Ring:bit Car v2 is the gentlest way into micro:bit robotics, and the only car in our range that students build themselves from parts rather than unboxing ready to drive. That assembly is the point — a child who has bolted on their own servos understands the machine differently from one handed a finished robot.
What's included:
Ring:bit v2 expansion board, which breaks out three of the micro:bit's GPIO ports
Two 360° continuous rotation servos and a car chassis
Rainbow LED module with eight full-colour LEDs
Assembly guide, with build and code walkthroughs on the ElecFreaks wiki
micro:bit board and batteries are not included — add a micro:bit V2 at checkout
What students practise:
Building a working machine from components, then finding the fault when it won't move
Sequencing: getting a robot to do the right things in the right order
Measuring and adjusting — a square that doesn't close teaches more than one that does
Block coding in MakeCode, with Python sample code available for older students
Expansion modules for line following, obstacle avoidance and drawing are sold separately, so the same car can carry a class from first program to independent project work. If you would rather start with a robot that arrives assembled and driving, look at the Smart Cutebot instead.
micro:bit Smart Cutebot — ElecFreaks Robot
$57.00 ex GST
($62.70 inc GST)
Cutebot is the micro:bit robot car most people picture when they think of one. It is small, quick and almost entirely pre-assembled — only the batteries and the ultrasonic sensor need fitting, so a class can be driving within minutes of opening the box rather than at the end of the lesson.
What's included:
Cutebot rear-drive car with dual N20 high-speed motors
HC-SR04+ ultrasonic distance sensor
Large line-following map and user guide
Two RGB LED headlights, two NeoPixel rainbow lights and underbody clearance lamps
Two line-tracking probes, a buzzer horn and an infrared receiver
Runs on 3 x AAA batteries, not included
micro:bit board is not included — add a micro:bit V2 at checkout
What students practise:
Sequencing and speed control — the difference between full speed and gradual
Line following and obstacle avoidance using sensor thresholds
Block coding in MakeCode, progressing to Python, JavaScript or C++
Measuring, adjusting and testing rather than guessing
The arc-shaped shell takes knocks well and the motors are fully enclosed against dust, which matters for a robot that spends its life on classroom floors. A 3-pin port allows sensor expansion, and the body accepts standard building bricks. Measures 85 x 85 x 38 mm.
micro:bit TPBot Smart Car — ElecFreaks
$79.00 ex GST
($86.90 inc GST)
The TPBot works straight out of the box without a micro:bit — it will follow a line and avoid obstacles on its preset modes alone. That matters in a classroom, because a child who is stuck can still see the thing work, then slot in a micro:bit and start changing what it does.
What's included:
TPBot smart car with an ABS shell
Line-tracking map
Sticker sheet and user manual
Runs on 4 x 1.5V dry cell batteries, not included
micro:bit board is not included — add a micro:bit V2 at checkout
What students practise:
Sequencing and steering — getting a robot to follow a planned route
Using sensor input to make a decision instead of running a fixed program
Block coding in Microsoft MakeCode, with Python available for older students
Designing a body for the robot, then testing whether it still drives properly
Lock joints on both sides and studs on the roof take standard building bricks, so the same car becomes a police car, a delivery truck or a football player. Four sensor connections and four servo connections allow expansion, and it works with our Interactive Coding Accessories Pack. Winner of a bronze IDEA Design Award. Measures 113 x 128 x 90 mm.
micro:bit Cutebot Pro — ElecFreaks Robot Car
$88.00 ex GST
($96.80 inc GST)
Cutebot Pro is the version for students who have outgrown approximate. Its encoder motors are closed-loop, so the car can be told to travel a set distance or turn a set angle and actually do it — which changes the kind of problem you can set. Four line-tracking sensors instead of two mean it can read crossroads and T-junctions rather than a single line.
What's included:
Cutebot Pro car with closed-loop encoder motors and wide-grip tyres
Four-way infrared line-following sensor array
Ultrasonic distance sensor
Two rainbow lights, two headlights, a buzzer and an infrared receiver
Integrated 18650 lithium battery box
micro:bit board is not included — add a micro:bit V2 at checkout
What students practise:
Controlling distance and turning angle precisely, then measuring the error
PID line following, using four sensor readings fused into one value
Block coding in MakeCode, progressing to Python or JavaScript
Competition-style problem solving where accuracy decides the outcome
Please note: the 18650 battery is not included and cannot be shipped with the car under air freight rules. You will need a flat-top 18650 cell (3.7–4.2V) — a button-top cell will not fit. Bluetooth, infrared remote and Joystick:bit control are all supported.
micro:bit motor:bit Smart Car Kit
$50.00 ex GST
$73.77 ex GST ($55.00 inc GST)
$73.77 ex GST ($55.00 inc GST)
The motor:bit Smart Car Kit is a two-wheel robot students build themselves, then teach to see. With an ultrasonic sensor at the front and two line-tracking modules underneath, it can park at a fixed distance, hold its position behind a moving obstacle, or follow a taped line around the classroom floor.
What's included:
motor:bit driver board with a TB6612 chip, 12 GVS ports and an I2C port
sonar:bit ultrasonic distance sensor
Two line-tracking modules
Acrylic chassis and assembly hardware
micro:bit board and batteries are not included — add a micro:bit V2 at checkout
What students practise:
Using sensor input to make a decision, rather than just running a fixed sequence
Threshold thinking — deciding what counts as "too close" or "off the line"
Building and wiring a working machine from parts
Debugging behaviour they can watch happen
Six documented projects on the ElecFreaks wiki take a class from fixed parking through line tracking to Bluetooth remote control, so the same car supports several lessons rather than one.
MakeKit Wheel:bit – micro:bit Robot Car
$90.00 ex GST
($99.00 inc GST)
The MakeKit Wheel:bit is a three-wheeled micro:bit robot car students build from scratch and code themselves. Clip a pen to the front and it becomes a drawing machine — turning geometry and angles into art the class can see.
What's included and how it works:
A build-your-own micro:bit robot car with laser-cut, sustainable parts, designed and made in Norway
An open, customisable design — rebuild the body with cardboard, 3D printing or a laser cutter
