The UNO Shield To Power Them All!

Thank you to PCBWay for sponsoring this video! You can get this PCB here: https://www.pcbway.com/project/shareproject/W173989ASH41_Uno_Shield_bf27d3c5.html

I made a quick and easy (and beginner-practice friendly) shield for Arduino UNO and Mega compatible boards so you can drive heavier loads directly from the shield. I wouldn't push it TOO hard but you should be able to pull about 500mA per pin. A future, higher current shield is planned!

Here are the parts you will need for this:
