The “Electronics Lab” by SmartLab comes with a book and 20 experiments.  The book is called “Wired!”

“Wired!” explores the basic concepts of electricity.  It gives you lots of information about circuits and how they work.  It is a lot like the “First Electronics” kit by SmartLab, but this kit tells you about capacitors, resistors, transistors, and lots of other stuff.

In one of the experiments, you make a burglar alarm.  Another one of the experiments is about making a traffic light.  You learn a lot about circuits while doing all of the experiments.

Overall, I think that this kit is great.  My favorite part of “Wired!: Electronics Lab” is the burglar alarm because it was cool to catch my sister entering my room!
