| About our kits
If this is your first time shopping with us, you may find the
following information helpful. Otherwise, click on Products for more information and to order.
What we sell: We sell kits of electronic parts for
building sound and photogate triggers and delay units. All of our
kits are designed to actuate electronic flash units. They will also
actuate many electronic cameras.
We also sell individual components
(SCRs, optical components, and timer ICs). If there's a
component you need that isn't listed, just
contact us to inquire about availability. We also have additional
cable lengths in order to provide greater
extensions for photogate and flash unit.
How much electronics experience is needed?
Some basic experience in reading a circuit diagram and
wiring circuits will be helpful. However, for most of the kits, we
provide online instructions with high-resolution photos showing the
circuits step-by-step as they're being built on solderless
breadboards. These
instructions are written for our breadboards, so you should purchase a
breadboard with a kit unless you already have a similar breadboard of
your own. We provide a discount when you purchase a breadboard with a
kit.
 How
to order and pay for your purchase:
Using PayPal: You can purchase kits
online using our PayPal
shopping cart feature and a credit card or bank draft. Payment in US
currency is required. If you prefer to send
payment by mail, contact us
first to let us know what you want.
Shipping, handling, and sales tax
US Customers:
We ship by USPS Priority mail and usually within 1 business
day of receiving your order. The Post Office claims an average of
2-3 days delivery time to all US addresses. If you need faster
delivery, overnight is available through USPS Express. Sales tax is automatically added to North Carolina
orders.
International customers:
We ship either by USPS Priority Mail International (6-10 business
days) or Express Mail International (3-5 business days). The latter
is a guaranteed method of shipping, and we recommend this method for
greatest security.
Customer Service
If you have question about an order,
email us. If you're
having trouble getting a circuit to work, first check the
online instructions for
your kit if you haven't done so already. If this doesn't help you
solve the problem, we'll do the best to help you troubleshoot via
email exchange. However, this amounts to some guesswork without
being able to see your circuit. If it looks like the problem
is a faulty component, we'll replace that.
We generally don't take returns on opened kits. You may return
unopened kits for a refund of the purchase price, excluding the
shipping and handling charges.
Privacy Policy
When you order through the PayPal shopping cart, the PayPal
privacy policy covers that transaction. (From the
PayPal home page,
click the Privacy link at the bottom of the page.) When you
correspond with HiViz.com via email, your email address and any
personal information you provide is kept private.
