from a company called 'sunfounder':
you add 4 18650 li-ion batteries and that's it, everything else is included. the arduino shield hack is my doing - that is not part of the kit (lol). but it comes with 2 arduino nano modules (strange, though: pl2303 chip based for usb/serial, not the ch340 and not the fake/real ftdi chips). it runs open source code that sunfounder provides.
took me about half a day to read thru it and build it. it went together very nicely, in fact. you have to calibrate the legs (lol) and that was a little time consuming but it was a one-time process.
I'm doing some testing on another arduino board that is NOT in the nano form factor and so I had to throw together this adapter hack. it works though, and I was able to do some porting/testing on that other board.
kit is about $130 and since all the parts are included and the cost was not much above the raw parts cost, I treated myself to an interesting learning toy.
