Here is what isn't mentioned. This thing is designed to be snapped together. You can take the power rails off of one side and add them to the other or remove them all together. If you buy more than one of these you can snap them together to make a much larger BreadBoard.
Last point, there is a companion SB400, that is a single sided PC board that has the exact same layout as the BB400, so once you have a working design, you can transfer it right over to a PCB to solder finalize.
All in all I'm impressed with the thought that was put into this simple product.

Bought a couple to create modular systems for the design of a device I have been working on for about a year. The connections all seemed to be snug and I had no issues with loose or ill conected components. Using the modular design concept allowed me to substitute different a module and immediately evaluate the overall changes in the device and also allowed me to return to a previous set up with a minimum amount of fuss. I would buy several if you are working with digital or analog systems just for the convenience alone.Best Deals for BB400 Solderless Plug-in BreadBoard, 400 tie-points, 4 power rails
This is a good breadboard.My only problem:
I purchased this BB400 and the larger BB830 together. I assumed they would fit together with their tongue and groove system. This is incorrect.
The BB400 has smaller joints than the BB830 (which makes sense, now).
It was my fault for not taking a closer look at the pictures.
Honest reviews on BB400 Solderless Plug-in BreadBoard, 400 tie-points, 4 power rails
This is a great little breadboard. Plenty of room for small projects, yet compact enough to be mountable without getting in the way. The plastic seems to be of high quality, and the adhesive really sticks! I've typically used a nice piece of hardwood as a base for different projects, and this breadboard fits great among the other components (battery holders, lasers, mechanical arms, etc...).Keep in mind you can remove both power rails, and also join multiple boards together. A handy feature.
I've already used three, and I'm back for more!

This is a breadboard. It's very simple yet incredibly helpful in prototyping circuits before committing to a permanent solder job. HOWEVER, this particular model can be ruined if you use the seemingly great adhesive bottom. All of the contacts are held in by the adhesive layer. I had this stuck to a project to keep the wiring stable, but when attempting to remove this product the adhesive layer tore off in chunks, taking the innards with it.Needless to say, I'll be replacing it with something much more durable and well-designed.
If you buy this (the price isn't bad at all), just don't stick it to anything!
