I bought this kit off ebay with a variety of components. I am trying to create the simplest of circuits, light an led with a resister using a 9v battery.
The breadbord I receieved has no markings on it at all, so I don't have a clue where positive and negative should go from the 9V.
Sorry for the newbie questions. So my first question is, where is the positive and negative on this board?
The dovetail tabs and grooves on the outer edges of your breadboard are for joining multiple breadboards together or attaching bus strips for power and ground connections. You will find bus strips very useful when you start working with ICs. To find compatible bus strips, check for a brand label on the back of your breadboard.
