Kit for disposal

Free to a good home, no warranties, etc. Quite a bit is functional, some not but may be useful for hacks.

Tools etc

  • "performance power" (B&Q brand) hammer drill, in plastic case with charger Request: David O (for one or other drill)
  • "performance power" (B&Q brand) non-hammer drill and circular saw with TCT blade, in plastic case with charger Requests: Jared R (for saw)
  • 6 battery packs for above, but 2-3 have weak cells and could use replacements.
  • conference phone - old US Robotics "3-legged" model

I'm still waiting for word if OxHack wants any of these.

Networking equipment

  • Netgear RO318 "security router". Could be used as 8-port 10/100M ethernet hub
  • Netgear RT338 ISDN router
  • 3-COM Officeconnect 8-port dual speed (10/100) ethernet switch
  • old-style ethernet tranceivers (15-pin 802.3 ethernet to coax (10base2) or TP (10baseT))
  • 16-port 10/100 ethernet switch; internal power supply
  • NEW Netgear DG834G v3 4-port Ethernet/Wifi/ADSL router (useful for EMG village, for local WIFI?)

I'm waiting to hear if the OxHack, or anyone, is interested in any of these.

Electronics and computer components

  • Old tower server (based on early dual Athlon processors). Various peripherals.
  • Various memory modules
    • 240 pin, 1Gb, PC2, 5300, I think they're unbuffered.

Taken:

  • Keyence "Engager GS III" E770, early generation quad copter in need of some repairs. Some spares included. Includes 40MHz transmitter. This is an old model, purchased in Japan, that uses conventional motors. I don't know if the electronics are hackable. This has been left at OxHack with Jared; Jared: I also have two original batteries (6-cell NiCad) and charge cable to bring in for you.
