It’s an incredible experience we’ve been through, creating a brand new product from scratch, running a Kickstarter campaign, and subsequently selling every single Triggertrap v1 we’ve made. Now that the Triggertrap v1 is completely sold out, we’ve started getting quite a few e-mails about what our plans are next, and when we’re launching a Triggertrap […]
Read MoreBirthday Mega-Sale of Triggertrap v1!
Happy birthday to us! Happy birthday to us! Happy birthday, little company! Happy birthday to us! It’s incredible to think that it’s a full two years since we launched the Kickstarter campaign that would eventually turn into Triggertrap as we know it today. It’s been an amazing journey so far – thank you all for […]
Read MoreNew Firmware for TTv1 & Triggertrap Shield!
It’s been pretty quiet around Triggertrap v1 and our Triggertrap Shield for Arduino – but that doesn’t mean that stuff isn’t happening in the background! Today, we’re announcing that we’ve released a brand new firmware update for both devices, bringing the version number up to version 0.3.36
Read MoreTriggertrap Mid-January Sale!
We had a bloody great number of you ordering Triggertrap Mobile and other products in November and December. I know, I know, it sounds pretty unlikely, but it turns out that there are still one or two photographers in the world who don’t have a Triggertrap. So we decided to run a mid-January sale!

If you’ve ever found yourself outdoors, taking photos at night, wishing you were able to give the sky a bit of a ‘kicker’, before giggling at the ludicrousness of that idea, feast your eyes on this photo taken by ‘deuler_b’ on Flickr, posted to our Triggertrap Flickr pool. The photographer used a Triggertrap v1, set […]
Read MoreTTv1 & Triggertrap Shield schematics
As part of our Kickstarter campaign, we promised that the Triggertrap Shield and Triggertrap v1 would be as ‘open’ as we could make them. In practice, this meant that the source code and the schematics would be completely open source. We’re really sorry it has taken us this long to release the schematics; we meant […]

Read MoreEasily update your Triggertrap v1 firmware on OSX and Windows
DEPRECIATED I’m afraid this version of updating the Triggertrap v1 and Triggertrap Shield firmware is out of date. Please follow these instructions instead.
Read MoreQuick update on Triggertrap v1 and Shield
We’ve been waiting patiently (by which I mean that we’ve only been calling and e-mailing our manufacturers every six hours, rather than every 3 hours…) for the next batch of Triggertrap v1‘s to come into stock. It turns out there was another round of problems with the acrylic casings, but the most recent update from […]
Read MoreReplacing batteries / Fixing a loose battery compartment
So, it turns out that some of the Triggertrap v1 models have a bit of a manufacturing foible: On some Triggertrap v1’s, the battery compartment is a bit loose, which means that the batteries can rattle inside the casing. It doesn’t usually cause any harm, as the solder points should be strong enough to withstand […]
