Very good product

For Hantek 6022BE Dual Channel USB Oscilloscope

The Scope is more than enough for logical signals and analyzing digital transmissions. Good stuff, intuitive and easy to use. The shipment was very fast.

Reasonably priced.

For KY-008 Laser x Laser Detector

The detector is straight forward with pins marked accordingly but the laser leaves much to be desired. My laser minus is negative pin, "S" is positive and the middle pin is unknown so far.

No customer support for non-functional parts

For DIY Line Tracking Smart Car

I wrote the seller with concern that the unit did not work. We have a bad LED that will not light up. There is 1.3V at the LED but no light. Being one of the two LEDs for the photo-resistors, it is functional not a cosmetic light so the unit will not work at all, just goes in circles.

It's been 4 weeks and we received NO RESPONSE AT ALL!

Nice fast display.

For 3.2" TFT Touch LCD

This is a nice fast display once you find the right library for it. While the touch screen can use the UTouch library, the only one I could find that worked with the display was a modified AdaFruit (the mcufriend_kbv) library. If running on a Mega 2560, the shield is necessary. This is a 3.3v display and has more pins than the Mega. When I need another 3.2" display, I will definitely be buying another one of these.

I gave the communication a 5 star rating only because it's required. I never had a need to communicate with the seller.

It works

For TFT Mega Shield

I bought this with the 3.2" touch display. There is not much to say about it, beyond it is needed for the display (see my review on that display).

I gave a 5 star rating on Communication only because a rating is required. I never had the need to contact the seller.

Kit looks great, Instructions are online.

For DIY Line Tracking Smart Car

I got this because I know a professor who loves line follow bots. I got it as a gift so I cant review the kit itself. It does come well packaged and looks nice. The only small gripe is that the schematic and instructions are given to you as a hyper link on a card. That said its not really a big deal. It shipped fast and was well protected. I would recommend it to others.

Great deal

For 2.4" TFT LCD Touch

Display works great. I have not tested touch and SD yet.
It was very hard to figure out which driver in UTFT should I use to communicate with display. At first, I also forgot to connect unused RD signal to logical 1 which made it even harder to make it work. Finally ILI9325D_8 worked for me.
I was unable to find suitable 16 bit interface driver or switch it to 16 bit (there is not a switch mentioned in the documentation).

Better than I expected

For eLab Peers Einsboard

I needed another Arduino and wanted something that balanced price and quality. I liked the price and it looked decent so I decided to try it out. So far (had it for a couple of weeks now) I like the Einsboard better than my Uno for a few reasons. I like that it uses a mini usb connector, which makes the whole thing thinner. Some shields come really close or even touch the USB connector on my Uno, this is not a problem with the Einsboard. Also, the status LEDs are in a better location which makes them easier to see when using a shield. But maybe the biggest plus for me is that it doesn't get as hot when using a 12-volt adapter to power it. My Uno feels like it will melt and will burn your finger when using a 12-volt adapter. It's a little better on 9-volts. The Einsboard is only warm on the 12-volt adapter. To me this is a much better board than the basic Uno at a better price.

Thanks for the encouraging comments!

Well designed and well thought out.

For 4-Channel 5V Relay

This is a quality relay board with all of the little details included, like optocouplers to protect the GPIO pins on my Pi. I only gave the documentation 3 stars because I did not see (or need) extra docuemntation (though I would have liked to see the circuit protection details mentioned in the description - I gleamed that detail from a clode ciew of the product images).
