Question 2

Amazon says that this starter kit is frequently bought together with "Wall Adapter Power Supply - 9V DC 650mA". Do I need to buy this power supply?

Accepted Answer

No, Arduino gets power (and is programmed) from a computer via a USB cable that is included in the box.  The kit also comes with an adapter to hook up a 9v battery, but I haven't tried it yet.  If you wanted to plug in your arduino to a wall socket for power once you finished your project you would need some sort of power adapter like the adapter you listed.

Hi, Yes it includes a small solderless bread board. The breadboard is approximately 2.25 X 3.25 inches and is more than adequate for all the projects in the kit.Hope that helps
