Customers say
Customers find the single board computer kit a good value for money and fun to build. They say it’s a great learning tool and a good project for soldering practice. However, some customers have reported issues with the device not working properly after assembly, which may be due to user error.

Awesome kit!
A great evening of learning and fun! Mine didn’t work perfectly when complete, but it’s fairly safe to assume user error on my part.

Fun little kit, good for improving your soldering skills
I assembled two of these over the last few days. The first one I think I messed up as 6 of the LED’s did not illuminate and I am pretty sure it was my mistake. The second one I assembled and I was much more careful with my soldering using a finer tip and it worked out perfectly. It is fun to build and really helps with dialing in your soldering skills. The finished product is an adjustable light chase and is exactly what the product claims to be and I think it was well worth the money. I would recommend a good solder sucker in case you make a mistake for easy solder removal/cleanup.

Worked as expected and all parts ok
I wish someone would just sell the PCB. I have tons of through hole parts which I would love to use for things like this. Good product but expensive when you look at the parts list.

Great way to test out a new soldering iron
It’s also just a really really neat circuit. And unlike most cheap kits, it actually comes with a paper schematic so you can trace any issues! I will certainly recommend this seller to anyone who is learning to solder.

Fun build
Fun to build, a lot of soldering and precision placement practice builds a fun fidgeting toy.

a WONDERFUL ELECTRONICS KIT
This is an excellent product for those who are interested in electronic devices, for children who are interested in learning about electronics and for those who are interested in their electronic kit building skills. I do have one suggestion for anyone who is interested in purchasing this kit. You should purchase a small kit with DIP sockets. It is better to place the integrated circuits into sockets so that if they ever need to be replaced it will be easy to complete the step. You need to have two 8 pin sockets and two 16 pin sockets.

Great for practice
I bought two of these. My only complaint would be that the power jack doesnât make good contact with the provided cable, so when you move the cable around it makes the lights jump around. Not a huge deal, but it might make you wonder if you messed something up.

Was missing 3.3k resistor
It was missing the 3.3k resistor, but I had a 10k and a 5k laying around that I was able to put together to make a 3.3k resistor. Besides the missing part it is a pretty cool kit

This is a nice kit to spend an afternoon building with a fun result. The board seems to be surprisingly good quality with nice clear markings for component placement. All components are good quality. All this makes for a good project for beginner to intermediate soldering skills.You will need a multimeter to measure the resistors, but if you do t have one, the colour bands are nice and clear.General tips for beginners:- solder iron temp max 700 degrees- don’t apply too much time/heat soldering the LEDs, as they are sensitive to heat damage- take note of the LED polarity: SHORT LEAD = negative = the line on the board marking = flat side of board marking = flat side of LED bulb bottom rim- use IC Sockets (not included) if you have them- mount components in order from lowest to tallest height (resistors 1st, then LEDs, small switches, capacitors, transistors, pots & jack, ICs last)- take your time, take a break & enjoy!

fully functioning fun for kids
ChrisDecember 18, 2024
This is a great little kit to not only practice your soldering skills but to also have a ton of fun playing with it, took me around 20 minutes to assemble, really simple instructions and the pcb is very clearly marked for each component, the diy aspect really gives you the sense of accomplishment when you’ve finished building, gives it that nice touch knowing you put it together yourself! This is a relatively easy build for someone with basic soldering skills, worth every penny!

To preface my review: i’ve never spent a minute soldering anything before, so I was going into this completely blind outside of watching some tutorials on youtube.The instructions are well written and document every single individual component required to complete the project, and there was never a moment I felt confused or lost due to poorly made instructions. The pictures are pretty blurry, but they ensure to circle every solder point on the board and indicate what numbered component goes where so you don’t end up putting a capacitor where it shouldn’t go.It took approximately 6-7 hours across two days to complete with the right hardware in hand (heat proof soldering mat, soldering iron, flux core solder, fume sucker, solder sucker, and some copper to remove any accidental soldering plus a multimeter will be handy for testing components prior to soldering). Very fun and simple to do if you have an idea of what you’re doing or have worked with small consumer electronics before, but I could see how someone with zero experience working with electronics would easily get lost.I managed to get it working on my first try, but had to replace an LED Diode as it was dead out of the box. I’d recommend this to anyone who wants to learn how to solder and has been working with repairing electronics or computers in the past, but maybe not someone entirely new. Beginners should start with practicing on wires!

Nice kit to build. Good soldering practice board as there are a lot of components included. Instructions included but they are not really needed as the board is well laid out. Doesn’t do a great deal as a finished project but if you like soldering and making kits it is a good buy and value for money.
