Great product from a great seller

For 2.7V, 3.3V, 5V AVR prog. shield for Arduino Nano

The programmer shield worked like a charm, making it incredibly easy to convert an Arduino Nano into a dedicated programmer. The seller was also awesome, responding quickly and being very helpful! Would definitely buy from again!

Great little Calendar!

For PCB Calendar 2015, 2016, 2017, 2018, 2019, 2020

Purchased this calendar, added lighted back-panel and cover. Then powered on and off with a motion sensor. Panel hangs flat on my wall. Fun project!

Great Tool. We found big differences between our cables.

For USB Cable resistance tester

We were able to see that some cables had 2x the resistance of others.
This would lead to a big difference in battery charge time!

Not much to it, but works exactly as advertised.

For Pogo Pin ICSP SPI Programmer Adapter

I especially appreciate the abundance of clear pin 1 markings, so it's harder to mess up the orientation. I wish there were a 10-pin (2 x 5) version for JTAG programming.

Great tool for programming alot of boards

For Pogo Pin ICSP SPI Programmer Adapter

Great build quality, works great! I have been using them since I got them. Thanks so much!

Great little board

For 5V, 3.3V, 2.7V ICSP SPI Level Shifter for AVR prog

This is one great little board if you have a programmer that cant do different levels. Made programming a custom 3.3V AVR board with a 5V programmer effortless. It even has little LEDs which indicate which voltage the board is running at to eliminate any confusion. Great product.

Works Perfectly

For ESP8266 FTDI and breadboard adapter with 3.3V reg.

Great customer service, they helped me out when I messed up my order. Packaged and shipped promptly, no complaints. This handy adapter makes using an ESP8266 a breeze! Everything you need: breadboard friendly pin-out, regulated 3.3 V power, reset button for putting the ESP8266 in programming mode. Connect GND to GPIO 0, press reset, then send. Easy!

very useful product / very good transaction

For Set of 7 SMD soldering trays (second class)

This SMD soldering trays are really a great help to me, when doing my reflow assembling by hand.
The "second class" quality is absolutely OK for me - I can work with this items well.

This is my second purchase, that says it already.

For Set of 7 SMD soldering trays (second class)

This was my second purchase to have more trays and add some types. The trays are very useful and are way better than using tape and cardboard :-). The instruction video says it all and the product is nicely packed and arrived fast.

I can't imagine being without these

For Set of 7 SMD soldering trays

I'm just making the move to SMD so ordered a set of these to arrive in time for my first PCBs. And I'm so glad I did. These really are such a clever and simple idea I can only imagine how frustrated I would have become with all these pieces of cut tape without them. I ordered the acrylic bases too, and I like how that keeps the trays themselves under control.

The whole lot is compact enough that when they're not in use they stack away neatly and won't clutter your space either.

In hindsight I think I'd have got more of the orange ones (not sure if the colour coding is uniform) which suit the 0805 passives so tended to be the most in demand here. I could see a 3rd acrylic base with 3 orange trays as a future addition in fact.

I thoroughly recommend grabbing a set. They turned out to be more useful than I could have imagined when I ordered them. Zero buyer regret. Review Image

A creative & handy tool.

For Set of 7 SMD soldering trays (second class)

Keeps your SMD part tapes all organized with the next part right at hand and in line with all the other tapes. Plus pulling back the part film cover is precise and uncovers one part at a time.

Works Great!

For Pogo Pin ICSP SPI Programmer Adapter

This is a solid product. Check out https://cockrum.net/cnc_projects.html#progclip2 for more details on how we are using it.

Great product, works as expected

For Pogo Pin ICSP SPI Programmer Adapter

Not much can be said about a pogo pin adapter. It either works as advertised or it doesn't. This one works well, the pin placement is accurate and the pins are durable. I've programmed a few hundred boards with mine and it is still going strong. Well worth the money.

The PCB calendar is a great little weekend project

For PCB Calendar 2015, 2016, 2017, 2018, 2019, 2020

I bought the bare PCB calendar instead of the assembled, lighted version. I enjoyed building a frame and light for the calendar. The PCB was well made with perfectly crisp laser cut letters and numbers. It was sturdy enough to stand up to handling but be careful not to scratch the front facing surface. Once you get a light behind it, the calendar illuminates well and is easy to read. Overall, I enjoyed the build and would do it again. Would make a great handmade gift for someone.
Cheers,
Jericho

Works surprisingly well.

For Set of 7 SMD soldering trays

There has obviously been quite a bit of thought put into these holders as they work really well. I was a little skeptical at first as 3d printed product is sometimes a little rough around the edges. I thought the tapes might bind in the groves but this isn't the case. Great product.

One suggestion. Make a larger holder for 24mm wide tapes as an option. I use SOIC18 components (ULN2803A) that could use this handy holder.

Thanks for the feedback I very appreciate it. I'm going to make 2 trays as options where customers can choose from existing ones. I also started making 24x5mm trays. I will send you one for free. Just to make sure I have the right address, what city do you live in?
