Products

Overdrive Electronics is a store where you can find everything that your looking for to outfit your R&D lab, Ham Shack, or any other facility that requires a selection of low-cost and high quality products.
Some of the products we carry are Oscilloscopes, Function Generators, Frequency Counters, etc. In addition we also have a wide selection of both Active and Passive components. Although we try to keep an inventory of the most common component parts available, we aren't always aware of the most current and advanced components or devices. In cases such as this, please just use the request form at the bottom of this page. We will contact local manufacturers to find the components or devices that you have requested. Usually it will take about 3 days to get a quote back to you along with a competitive price. We encourage you to also shop around. Though we generally have a set price from our suppliers, from time to time the prices fluxuate, in which case we will pass the savings on to you. Finally, to make your next purchase more convenient, we will add the products, devices and components into our main inventory. Who knows, perhaps another customer will be looking for that same product.

Services

History

In 2005 i decided to make a drastic career change. After about 10 years in the IT market i was ready for something else. What else could be more drastic but dropping everything i had, and leaving to a foreign country and teaching those people English , a country in which i couldn't speak the language none the less. So, that's exactly what i did. I moved from my comfortable home in Arizona to Shenzhen, China.
I had always been building electronic circuits as a hobby (usually dealing with high voltage devices), and i had continued to do them when i arrived to my own place in china. I didn't know what would be allowed or not allowed through customs in when i crossed the border, so i decided to leave everything in America, and start over in shenzhen.
From the first time that i walked through the technical market, i quickly learned that any piece of equipment that i need can be purchased here rather cheaply. There are many products that are low quality and not acceptable to buy, but at the same time, there were also some very affordable products with equal quality standards as what i could find in the u.s. From that point on, i decided that one of my main goals while in china would be to start my own exporting company. That is what I'm offering everyone today - Quality Products at very affordable prices.
