"The problem is no-one knows how to use the parts unless they are assembled into kits... that's my problem."

Funny, I've designed and built from scratch all sorts of advanced analog and mixed-signal circuits using my "secret" EE knowledge. I've also built kits from Adafruit. I had a great time doing both, and do not consider them mutually exclusive.

I don't think the ignorance of _other_ people is your problem.

"There are plenty of us before Limor who did the same stuff without the fanfare and movement crap."

That's true. Unfortunately, there doesn't seem to be any way for people to buy your kits and learn from your vast engineering knowledge, so they've all started giving their money to someone else. Whose fault is that?

Talk is cheap. Consider putting your money where your mouth is.
