Guided Basic Electronics with Real Prometeo Cases
Start with the tools, build intuition with resistors and RC filters, then move into logic and switching.
Why pay for this?
Information is free. Order is expensive. You are not paying for datasheets or tutorials—you can find those for free. You are paying for a Structured Method to avoid getting lost in the noise.

Kit essentials
How to follow this course
- Follow the modules in order (even if you have experience).
- For every case: replicate, measure, change one parameter, re-measure.
- Save evidence: photos, scope captures, BOM, and what failed.
Your Personal Assistant: Professor Prometeo
All course students have access to our specialized AI assistant. Unlike generic chatbots, Professor Prometeo has been trained on the verified cases of this blog. It understands your measurements, knows the common faults of this kit, and helps you debug your circuits 24/7 without hallucinations.
