MitchElectronics Mission
The main goal of MitchElectronics products is to provide safe electronics to makers and professionals alike while keeping the cost affordable. MitchElectronics kits are ideal for classrooms whereby students can learn about electronics using a hands-on approach which is not only highly effective at teaching students but also improves hand-eye co-ordination as well as grow interest in electronics. Since MitchElectronics kits are aimed at novices and those who are new to electronics they are designed to use low voltage power supplies such as 9V batteries which are inherently safe due to their limited voltage and current capabilities.
MitchElectronics Liability
MitchElectronics kits must be inspected and tested by a competent individual before use and must be constructed by those who are competent to do so. MitchElectronics is not liable for kits and products that are constructed incorrectly or to a poor standard whereby poor standard includes (but not limited to) poor solder connections, overheated components, and damaged components. MitchElectronics is not liable for harm, injury, or damage caused by the misuse of kits and/or products if
- Incorrectly constructed
- Powered by sources other than “portable batteries” or the specified power supply
- Kits used outside their operational range (such as voltage supply, temperature etc.)
- Used as a sub-system (i.e. connected to additional circuits and modules)
- Used in a non-educational environment
- Used in a commercial environment
- Used in any dangerous or potentially hazardous environment
- Purchased from an unauthorised third party
Portable batteries refers to low-power alkali batteries. Lithium-based batteries and those with large current capabilities (such as lead-acid batteries) are not considered portable or safe. The use of the kits or products in the above scenarios automatically voids any warrantee or guarantee of that kit or product.
Kits must be
- Inspected for damage before and after construction
- Inspected for missing parts
- Constructed correctly by a qualified individual
- Used in an appropriate manner (i.e. within operational ranges)
- Purchased from an authorised seller
Those who are not competent to construct, inspect, and test kits and products must be accompanied by a competent individual and that competent individual assumes all responsibility for harm or damages and MitchElectronics is not liable for any harm or damage.
Missing Parts
MitchElectronics is only liable for missing parts for kits that have been purchased within 28 days and that have been purchased directly from www.mitchelectronics.co.uk. MitchElectronics is not liable for any product sold by an unauthorised third party.
