That sux! All the best places to go to build stuff are going away. GEMOLITE, FOAMED PLASTICS, KIT KRAFT, CONTINENTAL GRAPHICS, ALLIED TRAINS, BERGER BEADS, MOSKITELLS, FRYES, among others.

LIS Technologies is on the road to transforming nuclear fuel enrichment through advanced laser techniques, ensuring a sustainable and cost-effective approach to energy production.

I got my start in a sort of family business that now has no connection to any of mine. None of the generations that have come after me and my contemporaries had any interest in making their livings in the building trades – so my family – including me slowly – divested ourselves. The difference – perhaps – is that the old businesses, that I was associated with are continuing under a somewhat different set of owners.

All Electronics is an electronics discount store. They carry surplus parts and misc supplies, such as switches, wiring, LED modules, and more.

Mjp electronics

We had a great run and much if not nearly the vast majority sadly of remaining manufacturers of these products aren’t made domestically anymore and haven’t been in decades in many cases. Sure there is a need for skilled labor and I’ve been saying that since the 70’s yet automation and innovation have made this a relic of the past.

Tayda Electronics

What a bizarre, defeatist PR position. They might as well spill the whole story of how it came to be then. Selling trinkets for a few bucks is hard to survive in Van Nuys….

Reuven Silverman of Ophir discusses the critical role of M2 measurements in laser technology for optimization and quality control in various industries.

A helium–neon laser or HeNe laser is a gas laser consisting of a mixture of neon and helium within a small bore capillary tube, which is excited by a DC electrical discharge. It was the first gas laser invented by Javan et al in 1962 at Bell Telephone Laboratories. It operates continuously in the red, infrared and far-infrared regions. However, the most widely used HeNe laser operates at a wavelength of 632.8 nm in the red part of the visible spectrum.

The process of producing He and Ne in specific excited states is known as pumping. In He-Ne laser, pumping occurs through collision of electrons and atoms during an electrical discharge. The 632.8 nm optical light is emitted by the laser when the Neon atoms decay from an excited state to an ordinary state. The light emitted by the He-Ne laser is extremely monochromatic, unidirectional, spatially coherent and aligned to be parallel to the body of the laser.

Lots of fond memories skimming through and buying parts from their catalogs…. Especially when I was back in school decades ago, and constantly tinkering with electro-mechanical things. Sad to see them finally go… though I think the writing has been on the wall for a very long time.

Jameco Electronics

I spent much of my youth in the late ’70s and early ’80s hacking together all sorts of electronic gizmos. When I wasn’t skateboarding or doing homework, I was at my desk with a soldering iron and bins of parts from All Electronics and Radio Shack.

Sad to see them go but the owner must have retired or passed. I’ve been buying electronic parts from them since the 1970’s, away from the big parts stores like Mouser, Newark, Digi-Key, and now Amazon. They and Jameco were my go to.

As a Izmir Adnan Menderes Airport car rental company, what is the retarder, what is it good for? We discussed a content on the question.

Browsing All Electronics is kind of like going through a tinkerer’s spare and harvested parts rack. They’ve got a bunch of useful stuff for prototyping with, but I’d never buy parts or components to spec from there.

These F-theta lenses by Avantier are designed for consistent spot size and uniform field curvature correction, ideal for high-resolution imaging applications.

Allelectronics corporation

I first learned of the company years ago, probably through a magazine ad, and fondly remember going through their slim booklet-style catalogs.

You are probably correct. Might have been a family run business. The founder (s) 56 years ago may have passed on or retired. The next generations may not be as keen on the business and think that the building and property (if they own it) is where the real money is.

Sad. My dad and I used to peruse their catalogs 30-40 years ago for hard-to-find, discrete components for whatever hobbyist projects we were working on at the time. There were several “mail order” businesses like All Electronics back then; most have probably faded into the sunset.

Really, I do think the killer is how expensive shipping is, especially in conjunction with the direct-from-China availability of so many things (and the subsidized shipping through USPS making that even more exaggerated).

Electronicgoldmine

My millennial self still orders occasionally from places like this. I’ve known of all electronics for years, but nothing stood out to me about them. I tend to shop goldmine electronics. They tend to have more of the NOS/odd parts I can come up with a use for at reasonable prices.

He-Ne laser is used widely in commercial and industrial applications, and commonly used in laboratory demonstrations of optics. It is the most common laser used in holography.

It is the end of an era. I remember ordering stuff from them way back. I enjoyed their catalogs and browsing their website. They kind of remind me of American Science & Surplus ( sciplus.com ) and Surpluss Shed ( surplusshed.com ) for optics. With those surplus stores you never knew what random item you might come across. Hopefully the latter ones stick around a little longer.

As many have commented, I grew up taking for granted places like All – anyone remember PolyPaks ? Or Lafayette Electronics (I’m in NYC). Up until the early 70’s there was a wonder of retail places in downtown Manhattan (“Radio Row”) selling this sort of thing, and WW2 surplus electronics. It was so fun browsing – you never knew what you’d find…often sold by the pound ! I still have some of what I picked up.

I’m definitely going to miss them. They used have a second loaction in DTLA. I’ve been going there for 20 yrs. I still shop there, I was actually just there 2 days ago & a couple weeks ago. With them gone, now there will be no local surplus stores that sells the type of stuff they had which is sad. There’s Apex but they’re a totally different type of surplus store. A few of the guys there have a plan though & I really hope it works out for them, for their sake & ours.

Aug 2, 2024 — Anti-reflective coating on eyeglasses is designed to reduce glare, making nighttime driving easier, and reducing eye strain from computer use.

Searched that site for a while and in my opinion, with the high cost of shipping virtually nothing on that website you can get elsewhere for roughly either the same price or maybe somewhat cheaper. Look I am all for supporting small family owned businesses and businesses that aren’t corporations. Heck I even go out of my way if I can to support several I know because they aren’t part of a chain.

Old guys i.e. boomers such as me are likely the largest demographic that still are interested in this. From the 1970’s to the mid 90’s there was such a demand and interest with electronics of this nature. However those days are very much long gone and are never returning.

I do remember some of their electronic connectors being really poor quality. I got a batch of 20 PL-259 connectors that had the softest plastic insulator and only 2 holes to solder the shield instead of the normal 4 holes. Those were a absolute PITA to install without turning the whole thing into a puddle of molten plastic. I did succeed and used all of them up, but learned a good lesson about spending a bit more for better quality.

IF you can even get a raspberry pi kit. Most places are on backorder through 2024-25. Or on ebay for 4x’s retail pricing.

As a teen I used to shop these places to build all sorts of projects in magazines like Popular Electronics. That experience encouraged me to get my undergrad degree in electrical engineering. At the university we did build some things in our lab classes, but most of our time was focused on theory. Advance a few decades forward and a person can buy a fairly advanced raspberry pi kit for less than $50 and do everything in software. The market is really shrinking for a lot of these component parts retailers.

Futurlec

When I read the headline I momentarily thought a big EMP blast had hit the USA. But then realized my iPhone wouldn’t be working to read the headline if hat was so.

In the early 2000’s shortly after I got into amateur radio I ordered a bit from them as they were one of the easier options available once you wanted more variety than was available from radio-shack. I remember them as having a decent if slightly odd selection of surplus parts and inexpensive new electronics parts. The reasonably sized catalog was a pretty good source back when websites seldom offered online shopping options. Back then Digikey and Mouser Electronics had much smaller offerings and much more difficult catalogs to sift though. I assume that the supply surplus electronics has probably slowed to a trickle as less and less is manufactured here. Along with so many more options for low cost electronic parts (Amazon, Ebay, ECT…) that making a profit in that market would be difficult.

Active Surplus, BG Micro and now All Electronics. Who’s next? Jameco? Very sad, but I can see how the market has changed.

Lee'selectroniccomponents

The VINCI series of ultrafast fiber lasers has a central emission wavelength of 1064 nm and features a unique combination of short pulse durations.

I didn’t get the email announcing this!! I would have bought a bunch of stuff before they went away forever. For instance, those little rotary 5 position switches (that they apparently had a million of) were on my list to buy on my next order. This stings a bit.

That said I am old enough to come to terms with the hard reality that this type of business is a relic of the past. This isn’t me being harsh but the blunt reality. Think of the youth of today; with exceptions of course most aren’t interested in the analog or “old school” technology.

Red HeNe lasers have a number of industrial and scientific uses. They are commonly used in laboratory demonstrations in the field of optics due to their ease of operation and relatively low cost.
