  1. Allow repeat order without the need to upload the gerber files again

    If you repeat an order it should not be necessary to upload the Gerber files again. Most other PCB manufacturers do this.

  2. wired/wireless Grove-controlled 220V outlets

    A simple, wired outlet is something I find myself making all the time (left side of photo), but I'd rather buy something smaller/safer/nicer than keep making them :)

    The [more expensive] wireless product can have the same functionality of a "normal" rf (or ir) controlled outlet, but the remote control would also have a grove socket. If it's necessary to have 2 buttons/pins in order to control such a device (like the a/b buttons in the photo), you can use both yellow and white lines (unorthodox for non-I2C grove modules, but I don't see any reason why not).

  4. Optoisolator

    I wish that in the OPL parts, you can find a place also for an optoisolator like the PC817. This is a good component when we need to make a strong separation between different supplies. Especially for microcontroller!

  6. more detail on order status

    Provide more online detail on order status. e.g. "Processing" is too generic. more detail would be appreciated, including estimated shipping date.

  7. Max485

    I wish to have in your OPL list the posibility to use the well common MAX485. When I develop boards with Modbus communication feature, I always need to use this components.
    Thanks

  8. Create more longer cables for grove.

    Create more longer cables for grove. For example 2 or 5 meters would be really useful. Thanks

  11. Adds some opto-isolators to the OPL

    There aren't currently any opto-isolators in the OPL? This seems like a big gap in it's functionality. Something like the 4N35 or the TLP291-4

  12. Website Naviagtion

    I really like the products that you have on your site. I like it that Radio Shack also carries them. I found your site hard to navigate and find what i am looking for easily or even just to browse like an online store. On the other hand your competitors like SparkFun Pololu are really easy to navigate. I often find my self just browsing things on there store for hours. With this site i just don't feel like it give the feel to stay and "shop". I come in like i do when I go to radio shack retail…

  14. I'm having communication problems

    Very hard to do business with you. I'm having communication problems. I can not find contacts for communication. I do not have time. I can not spend time with you. I am in a hurry.

    I canceled my order and cancel the payment.

  15. Better inventory management needed

    Most products that I would to order are out of stock! :( Water pump, relay, flow sensor, etc. There should be an option for back-order or notification to customer when the product is back in stock.

  16. The grove serial mp3's sound is vastly superior than the grove mp3 v2.0 especially where volume control is concerned

    I wish that either you do not retire the grove serial mp3 or try an other mp3 chip for a grove mp3 v3.0. thanks

  17. Facilitate upgrades by opening a second hand trading section

    We´re trying to find a Jetson Agx Xavier Developer Kit 32GB for an internal R&D project in Madrid, Spain but I can´t find any available anywhere, and we can´t afford more expensive options.
    I imagine more people will be in our same situation.
    At the same time, probably other people need to upgrade to more powerful systems and could benefit from a discount trading in their used units, that you could revise and resell second hand?
    That way everybody wins!

  18. Add 4x20 Grove LCD

    The 2x16 Grove LCD is terrific, especially with the backlight color changes. Bring out a 4x20 version.

    By the way, what are the hidden I2C addresses on this device? They should be documented so multiple devices can be used.

  20. make larger flex circuits! PCB's go up to 30cm, flex circuits should too :)

    seeed flex circuits are very reasonably priced, however they don't go large enough to make a real wire harness replacement in any decent size project. Would love to see the flex circuits get the same size options as the rigid PCB's :)
