Need a BIG DC Power Supply? Emona can help you
If you need a very big, programmable DC power supply – up to 2MW and
more(!) – talk to Emona.
They’ve just been appointed the Australian and New Zealand distributors for
Magna-Power Electronics, a worldwide
leader in programmable high output DC
power supplies.
Magna-Power Electronics designs and
manufactures robust programmable DC
power supplies ranging from 1.25kW to
2000kW+. This extraordinarily high DC
output range is unique amongst power
supply manufacturers.
Magna-Power’s products are used by

60 Second Sound Recording Module
has a wide range of applications
KitStop’s newly introduced KSSM-60S Sound
module has double the storage capacity of the
popular (but now superseded) KSSM-30S.
Other improvements in the KSSM-60S include a higherrated battery set and a better sound from its on-board 16ohm 40mm speaker. The latter extends the applications
well beyond the talking greeting cards and gift boxes for
which these modules were first designed.
Suggested applications for the KSSM-60S include
sound effects for models, artworks, super hero costumes,
science fair story-line delivery, DIY doorbells, nature
sounds, point-of-sale alerts and add-ons to security sensors.
Optional triggers for the KSSM-60S include tactile switches,
micro switches, LDRs, reed switches, ultrasonic and PIR
detectors, all of which are available from KitStop.
For a modest surcharge, model builders may purchase the
KSSM -60S in a knockdown form (suffix MM). This version
is supplied with
an off-board 4.5V
3xAAA switched
battery compartment and additional tactile switches.
This gives model
makers the flexibility
to mount the electronics, battery, switches
and speaker remotely

3D At Your Fingertips with Wacom Pro Pen
The new Wacom Pro Pen 3D, designed for use on a Wacom MobileStudio Pro, Cintiq Pro or the 2017 Intuos Pro
Pen Tablet, brings intuitive creating, sculpting and designing to your fingertips.
Notably, it includes a third button, a feature frequently
requested by creative professionals working in industrial
design, game design, animation, virtual and augmented
reality and 2D/3D art.
This button provides additional ways for users to manipulate and speed up the design processs, allowing designers and artists to do most of their work in 3D applications
right from the pen, without having to touch their keyboard.
The pen’s default settings for the third button controls
tumbling and rotation, engaging users with all the small
details in a 3D model.
The Wacom Pro Pen 3D retains the same performance
features that creative professionals love in the Wacom Pro
Pen 2, including 8192 levels of pressure sensitivity and a
sensitive pen tip. All settings and functions can be customised to suit the user’s preferred style of work and workflow.
Built to work with any Windows or Mac application, Pro
Pen 3D provides a natural digital experience and unparalleled control.
The aluminium barrel and slightly thinner grip give it a
new, sleek appearance and make it a great tool for any designer or artist working on one of Wacom’s professional
creative products.
The Waco Pro Pen 3D is priced at $149.00 inc. GST
and is available direct from Wacom or from selected retailers.
