Title: Buy IR LED emitter and detector pair Canada
Post by: Xyver on July 09, 2010, 02:29:17 AM

Where can I get an IR emitter and detector pair online that will ship to canada for cheap?  I've seen them for 1.50$, but I cant for the life of me remember where.  At the Radioshack by my house, they sell them for 5$, but thats too expensive.  Any ideas?

no problems. i have found they have the best range and the best prices for thoses sorts of components.

some times it takes a whil to reach you but if your a student like me you dont have any other choice ;D

for me all of my orders have taken about 2ish weeks, give  or take a day or two.
