Such a neat little gadget!

I've had this permanently attached to one of my Zero Ws, and it's so nice to just plug it in to any USB port and have it automatically boot up and turn SSH on. Then I can control it easily. Plugging it into a power brick is a nice trick, makes a solid connection with no loose wires. You can set it up for an ad-hoc or AP network, then connect to it with your phone and control it while you're out and about. Could have all sorts of things attached to it -- LoRa, sensors, whatever!

Everything from 8086 Consultancy I've bought has been worth the money, every time. Thanks for such a great line of neat gadgets!

Cam Gadget

I have a Sleepy Circuits Hypno video synth that takes UVC based video input. The Pi zero with dongle makes it into a sturdy USB camera source when paired with a camera module.

Slick Addition to My Raspberry Pi Arsenal

The board layout is very precise. This should make it a bit easier to futz about with a pi-zero, one less wire.

Tindie Legos!

I am using this with the Tindie "Ryobi USB Power Supply - USB QC 3.0 (TS80)" so that I can put temp/humidity monitors in hard to power places. It's very well made and works perfectly. It would be a worthy *official* Pi foundation accessory. I just need more projects (excuses) to buy more!

Excellent solution and sturdy build

This was quick to use and has proved very handy around the house, and to connect Pi Zeroes into my other projects' USB ports.

All three that I bought are well built, and happily fulfilling their duties.

Once I've a few more Pi Zeroes, I'll probably be getting more :)

All good, excellent product, made well, sturdy!

Opened the box, assembled on to my PiZeroW, screwed it down, and it worked the first time. Sturdy little bugger, love that it is there, but out of the way. Nice job.

Great product! Recommended.

This is a great dongle to raspberry pi zero, great price and works smoothly, solderless, just plug and play!
You can use just to power you raspberry pi or can use USB to device mode (what you think about turn your raspberry pi in a network card? usb to serial adatpter? or flash drive?)
Thanks mister "8086 Consultancy" about this creation, amazing!
