<h1>When You Are Done</h1>
<p class="PlainText">Its important to disconnect the power from your BASIC Stamp and Board of Education (or HomeWork Board) whenever you leave it unattended or when you build or modify circuits on its breadboard.&#160; First, your batteries will last longer if the system is not drawing power when youre not using it.&#160; Second, soon you will build circuits on the Board of Education or HomeWork Board prototyping area.&#160; </p>
<p class="Caution" MadCap:autonum="Caution! &#160;"><span class="autonumber"><span class="TipSpan">Caution! &#160;</span></span>Circuit prototypes should never be left unattended with a battery or power supply connected. Always disconnect the power from your Board of Education or HomeWork Board before you walk away, even if you only plan on leaving it alone for a minute or two. </p>
<h2>Disconnecting Power</h2>
<h3>For the Board of Education</h3>
<p class="PlainText">With the Board of Education - Serial (Rev C), or Board of Education USB, disconnecting power is easy. Just move the 3-position switch to position-0 by pushing it to the left as shown below. (If you have an older Board of Education- Serial which does not have a 3-position switch, unplug the battery or power supply plug.)</p>

<p class="Caution" MadCap:autonum="Caution! &#160;"><span class="autonumber"><span class="TipSpan">Caution! &#160;</span></span>Do not remove the BASIC Stamp module from its socket, unless it needs to be replaced with another module!&#160;&#160;&#160; Every time the BASIC Stamp is removed and re-inserted into the socket, you risk damaging it.&#160; You do not need to remove it for storage.</p>
<h3>For the HomeWork Board</h3>
<p class="PlainText">Disconnecting the BASIC Stamp HomeWork Boards power is easy too.&#160; If you are using the BASIC Stamp HomeWork Board, disconnect the battery as shown below.</p>
