Perfect nifty device

For DSTIKE WiFi Packet MonitorV3 PCB antenna version

Device does what is claims, seems to be well designed and looks well manufactured. There were no problems using the device or viewing the .pcap files in wireshark. The only negative thing I could think of is that you really need to format the uSD card. That said, it is clearly stated on the website and if you forget to do so and it doesn't work because of that, you will discover it the moment you switch the logging on which is ok. Great device and also a nice development platform for other ESP32/OLED/uSDcard projects. The source code is very readable and is therefore of educational value as well. It is a great time to live in.

Nice piece of hardware

For DSTIKE WiFi Packet MonitorV3 PCB antenna version

This was to get a first hands-on on a ready-made ESP32 plus display. While I plan for an all-in-one solution using a larger display, this itsy-bitsy module will be nice to evaluate these functions while I'm waiting for my larger displays.

The product works and the seller is amazingly nice

For DSTIKE NodeMCU-07 V2

Got the product and it works really nice, seller answered my questions and provided blueprints and diagrams for the product! really nice seller!

Fantastic All-in-One Microcontroller

For DSTIKE D-duino V5

I've been using these for all my new projects, and so far have not regretted it--the price is very reasonable for the features you get.

Having the screen built-in makes development and maintenance much easier, because you can see right there what the status of the controller is at any time.

This model also adds an external antenna which is a nice touch and gives some flexibility for range and placement of devices.

The switch to ESP07 (1MB flash) does mean you will need to lower your SPIFFS allocation if you want to do OTA stuff.

Fun gagdet

For DSTIKE WiFi deauther OLED V3.5 (Added RGB LED)

This board was easy to put together and fun to use. I have only 1 negative comment. The problem was the USB port for external power snapped off on about the 6th use. I will admit that the USB cable connector I used did seem to not be of the best quality, but I wasn't putting excessive pressure on the plug. I was unsuccessful in re-soldering the port back on the board so I'm ordering a second board and will be careful when plugging/unplugging external power sources in the future. Of note: the battery will not power the board once the USB plug has been removed.

I was very happy with the performance of the device while it was working.

Edited because I realized I made a negative comment about a different product I ordered. Only one negative point on this product!

good product and nice seller

For DSTIKE WiFi deauther OLED V3.5 (Added RGB LED)

Its a nice designed board and it works straight out of the box.
You can also flash the board by yourself if needed. Its a great product.

I had some shipping problems but the seller was very helpful.
Thank you very much!

Good product; possibly prone to user error

For DSTIKE WiFi deauther OLED V3.5 (Added RGB LED)

Got the deauther quicker than expected, worked fine out of the box. Then I mistakenly put the battery in backwards and fried the charging chip. So don't do that.

Good Product bad QC

For DSTIKE WiFi deauther OLED V3.5 (Added RGB LED)

Edit 14th Nov 2017: Travis sent me a new board, with problems mentioned below fixed, it's working well with battery and USB port problem is also fixed. Thanks Travis :)

Received the order in acceptable time frame, everything was good except.

1.) USB port was not soldered correctly, it ripped off on very first plug out.
2.) Used 18650 Li-ion cell and it smoked, i am sure about polarity, don't know what went wrong.
3.) Love the product but poor quality control, not only way to use it is to power it from pin header.

I am improving this product.
Looks like your product has a big problem.
What is your order number?
I can send you a new one

A+ Seller & (newly improved) Product!

For DSTIKE WiFi deauther OLED V3.5 (Added RGB LED)

Beautifully designed board, pre-compiled w/ Spacehuhn's DeAuth coding.
The external antenna provides a Much longer range than those without external antenna (I was honestly surprised by the Significant range increase). The on-board OLED screen allows one to either connect remotely to it & execute commands or simply use the buttons & screen on the board to execute actions without wirelessly connecting to it (giving it more of a plug-&-play style feel).
The updated design is quite nice, namely the improved battery-life & certainly the new buttons, which are not only of better quality than before, but are now more appropriately positioned to allow much easier physical access (especially w/ the clear front shield attachment).

The seller was of great help, replied to ALL of my (many) questions & concerns. Fast replies & great shipping!
'Would recommend this seller to any friends or family & I'll personally be ordering from this seller again very soon!

Works just as described. Fun to use.

For WiFi Packet Monitor (Preflashed D-duino-B)

The device came with a short USB cable, so I could plug it in right away and it worked exactly as described. It monitors one channel at a time, and provides a count of the activity on that channel every few seconds. Along the bottom of the display, it shows a running graph of counts over time. Since the code is available on github, I'd like to modify it to show activity over all the channels simultaneously, at least as one option. In addition, the unit could be programmed to do almost any type of IoT device that needs a small display for the user to see what's happening. For example, it could show the output from a wifi weather station, or a remote sensor, or even a group of remote sensors.

Just, a really good product.

For DSTIKE WiFi deauther OLED V3.5 (Added RGB LED)

I bought this and I just received it today along with my x-ring, the shipping was okay took them a while but that's what you get for 5$ shipping. Anyways, the screen is just huge along with the text. Here's a picture of the Wifi Deauther Preflashed OLED compared to this one: https://gyazo.com/e752f5a1b76f6afbaaa98649960ce384 (the picture is looks smaller than in real life). The product came in safely intact and everything worked well and the buttons were moved into more comfortable positions. It worked like it said it would. Perfect. edit: after two days the circuit board got messed up with the antenna, just a mistake from the seller.

Wish battery voltage measurement was on board

For Pocket 32 V2

I bought a couple of these Pocket32 V2. Nice idea to include battery holder attached to board. Actually, I had one holder come unattached at the + end. I re-soldered easily. No problem for me. However, I wish a battery voltage resistor divider to a analog input was included on the board. I would guess most folks who would buy this would want to be able to read the battery voltage. And with the ESP32 there are certainly enough analog pins. I can build my own resister divider and the software is easy, but it doesn't appear the battery voltage is brought out to an accessible header pin. Please inform me of the easiest hardware connection methods to measure 18650 battery voltage.

Update 5 Sep 2017. After using the Pocket32 V2 board a little more, I have some additional comments which may be of interest to other folks considering this board for battery-powered purposes. First the good news. The seller seems to be very prompt in responding to my comments, both here and via private email. I believe he is very interested in customer comments and improving his products. Also good to know, both of my boards have the latest rev1 silicon for the ESP32 chip. This fixes several issues with the original rev0 silicon.

And now the bad news. If you want to use this board for long-term battery powered applications using the deep-sleep function of the ESP32, you will likely be disappointed. My measurements indicate 15mA from the battery during deep-sleep. (Note this is with rev1 silicon and Arduino IDE fixes for deep-sleep.) The ESP32 alone should only draw around 10 micro-amps during deep-sleep, not milli-amps. The seller believes the main reason is the charging system. The board uses a TP5410 which is a boost regulator which works something like this: 3.7V from 18650 battery --> TP5410 boost to 5V ---> regulated down to 3.3V for devices on the board. Further research on the internet tells me designs using this TP5410 are not meant for lengthy stand-alone battery use. Much too power inefficient. The board will be fine if constantly connected to USB for power and then 18650 will be the auto backup supply. Also, as I stated before, it doesn’t help that there is no way to programmatically monitor the actual battery voltage on this board.

Sorry for my mistake of unsolder the holder.
I do not have experience of how to measure 18650 voltage by esp32.
I will do some research about how to measure it.
If you success please also inform me I can make a V3 Version.
Thank you very much.

nicely designed product / shipping good

For 0.96 IIC Tiny OLED

The "0.96 IIC Tiny OLED" is a nicely designed product,
it don't waste any square-mm of precious space on you PCB.

Shipping to Europe ran smoothly and quickly enough.

There could be more documentation especially what voltage levels are allowed on the I²C lines, in case the supply voltage is 3.3V or 5.0V.
The I²C address is fixed and can not be changed.

Great product for educational

For WiFi Packet Monitor (Preflashed D-duino-B)

This is a great product for educational focus. I use this in my classroom when I want to explain the use of Arduino and graphical primitives.
Great Work!

Very good, thanks

For D-duino V2(Arduino&NodeMCU&ESP8266&0.96OLED)

First unit was wrong, after a quick comunication with the seller, he replaced it very fast.
Product is just as described

Bareny | Jan. 7, 2017

Great Product!!

For D-duino (ESP8266 & NodeMCU & 0.96 OLED display)

This is a great product. The company service is SUPER!! The first unit arrived doa, but they made good and sent another quickly.
VenomVFX will be using this product (and others) in our future Prop controllers & Escape room products.
I like a company that stands behind there product.

Very good product, well integrated

For D-duino V2(Arduino&NodeMCU&ESP8266&0.96OLED)

Well integrated module working flawlessly.
Shipping was perfect : sent two times because the first time I never received the product.
Communication is perfect too : Travis Lin answer very fast and is very kind.

Documentation however is almost missing.
You have 10 lines of explanations and that's it.
General documentation is very low. Instructables are cool but also lacks of clear instructions.
No documentation about how to handle the device as an arduino.
Documentation about hardware is not complete (what is the screen exactly for example (resolution, UCG/U8G model)).

Well, it's not that hard so almost everyone would do it.

But no sorry, this device is not a platform for beginners to learn coding. Because to be so, documentation must be improved.

Bareny | Dec. 12, 2016

Great customer service!!

For D-duino (ESP8266 & NodeMCU & 0.96 OLED display)

I am a bit of a noob with Arduino. The customer service was SUPER! Walked me through setup and compile. My luck I received a DOA unit , customer service is send a new one.

This person stands behind there product, wish all did.
