That's why we've tried to make it as easy as possible to start -by combining the Raspberry Pi with what we think are the best beginners' Pi accessories into one easy to use kit.

We've hand chosen these accessories as the perfect accompaniment to your new Raspberry Pi 2 Model B or Raspberry Pi 1 Model B+. It's everything you need to get going with a high quality power supply Raspbian SD card case WiFi adapter console cable and lots of prototyping essentials. It's agreat jumping off point for the rest of our extensive accessory and pack collection.

This pack DOES NOT include a Raspberry Pi 2 Model B or Raspberry Pi 1 Model B+ Computer!

• Adafruit Raspberry Pi 2 or B+ Case - Smoke Base / Clear Top- We are selling the Raspberry Pi B+ StarterPack with our brand new Pi Case. We think it's the Single Greatest Raspberry Pi 2 or Model B+ Case Ever - though ourPi Box Plusis also nothing to scoff at.
• Adafruit Assembled Pi Cobbler Plus- This is the soldered together version of our popularPi Cobbler Plus Kit. Comes with a breakout board that's perfect for cobbling prototypesas well as a40-pin GPIO cablefor your Pi's pins.
• ??a href="https://www.adafruit.com/product/239">Full Size Breadboard- In the past we've used the half-size breadboard for a lot of Pi projects - but no longer! WIth 40 pins to break out you're going to need some space - and that's why we're including a full size breadboard in this pack.
• Premium Male/Male Jumper Wires - 20 x 6" (150mm)- These jumper wires are great for making wire harness or jumpering between headers on PCBs. We include the longer ones so they work well with the full-size breadboard.
• USB to TTL Serial Cable- An old standby this cable's pretty much the easiest way to connect your Raspberry Pi to a USB port to log into the debugging/login console. Ideal for running the Pi 'headless'
• USB WiFi Module- Give your Rasp Pi the Internet with this USB port WiFi module this module is compact but has great range and is plenty fast.
