Do you covet SD cards? One might be tempted to buy the newest, shiniest, largest capacity card simply because it is amazing. For the times when all you need is a simple SD card to get the job done – or a spare to prototype with – this is the card for you. 1GB capacity is plenty to store MP3s or log environmental data, and still dwarves older memory systems like magnetic core memory.

This card is not the Ferrari of SD technology, but thats what makes it perfect to use in permanent projects that require some non-volatile storage. It is a Class 4 SDHC card. This means it is rated to write up to 4 MB/s. A simple test on our PC showed the available space as 942 MB and a write speed of ~5 MB/s.

We do not plan to regularly produce SparkX products so get them while they’re hot!
