    I like the prize. My brother is getting started in electronics and is always drinking coffee. This would be perfect for him!
    I used to have one of the items we’re guessing on (different model though). They’re hard to find these days.

    sweet prize!

  6. Pete Says:

    The mug would be neat if they didn’t pimp their website all over it. A cheat sheet is pretty useful for those resistors we don’t use that often. It’s a pricey cheat sheet at $13.75 though!
