Who we are
Kobee is operated by Kobee Electronics, ABN 14 707 910 863. In these terms, "Kobee", "we", "us" and "our" refer to Kobee Electronics. The website at kobee.com.au, our shop, tutorials, calculators, apps, account features and related services are together referred to as the site.
By accessing the site, creating an account, placing an order, using a tutorial, app, calculator, configurator, estimator, selector, downloadable resource, code sample or other tool, you agree to these terms and to any policy linked from these terms.
Educational content, apps, calculators and tools
Our tutorials, calculators, apps, configurators, estimators, selector tools, guides, code samples, diagrams, examples, product suggestions, generated outputs, downloads and other resources are general educational information only. They are not professional engineering, electrical, legal, safety, compliance, certification, medical, financial or other professional advice.
You must make your own assessment before relying on any content or output. This includes checking suitability for your project, current laws and standards, manufacturer documentation, product ratings, environmental conditions, wiring, polarity, firmware, enclosure design, battery safety, heat, load, fusing, isolation, certification, and the skill level of everyone involved.
Inputs, defaults, assumptions and calculations may be incomplete, simplified, outdated, entered incorrectly, rounded, or unsuitable for your application. You are responsible for validating all results independently before buying parts, building a circuit, deploying software, connecting hardware or using any output in a real-world system.
Electronics, batteries, power supplies, tools, soldering, 3D printing, wireless equipment, mains voltage, vehicles, robotics, automation, and connected devices can cause property damage, injury or death if used incorrectly. Use appropriate supervision, personal protective equipment, test equipment, isolation, ventilation, fire precautions and safe work practices.
- Do not work on mains voltage or other hazardous systems unless you are legally permitted and competent to do so.
- Stop if you are unsure, if a device behaves unexpectedly, or if a component becomes hot, smells, smokes, swells or leaks.
- Do not assume photos, diagrams or videos show every guard, tool, warning label, PPE item or safety step.
- Projects, apps, calculators, code, library examples and outputs may become outdated as products, firmware, standards, software libraries, APIs and laws change.
- Children and students must be supervised by a responsible adult or qualified educator.
Products, orders and availability
Product descriptions, images, prices, stock status, specifications, weights and delivery estimates may change. We try to keep information accurate, but occasional errors or omissions can occur.
When you place an order, you represent that the products will be used lawfully and safely. You are responsible for confirming that products are suitable for your intended use, including any regulatory, certification, import, export, radio, electrical, battery, aviation, medical, automotive or workplace requirements that apply to you.
We may refuse, cancel or limit orders where required by law, where details appear incorrect or fraudulent, where a product is unavailable, or where the order appears unsafe or inappropriate for the stated use.
3D printing service
If you buy a 3D printed item from our catalogue or submit a custom 3D printing request, our 3D Printing Service Terms also apply. You are responsible for checking that any submitted file, model, drawing, dimensions, material choice, tolerance, intended use and instruction is accurate, lawful and suitable for your application.
Custom 3D printing is a manufacturing service based on the information provided to us. Unless we agree in writing, it is not an engineering, design, certification, safety assessment or compliance approval service.

The site may link to third-party sites, documentation, libraries, videos, payment services, shipping providers, analytics services, community posts and product resources. We do not control third-party services and are not responsible for their content, security, availability, policies or performance.
Warranties, disclaimers and liability
To the maximum extent permitted by law, and subject to non-excludable consumer guarantees, the site, content, tutorials, apps, calculators, configurators, estimators, selector tools, generated outputs, examples, support information and third-party materials are provided on an "as is" and "as available" basis.
