Fast and good

For jolliCube – 8x8x8 LED Cube (SPI) DIY Kit

1st time i've bought it 1 year ago. but 1st pancake is bad. this time i have enough time to make the cube as perfect as possible.
a bit disappointed by wood form, but i guess it's ugly only because of weight limitation.

Good product, fast delivery documentation is nice

For JF sLOMO (Slow Motion) Frame DIY Kit

I bought and build and it work like a charm.

Fast delivery, well protected. Product as described.
The documentation is good, but for few details is might be tricky. Anyone can build it knowing basic soldering. But it is a challenging kit, so take your time and enjoy.

The pcb layout is good and clear, all pieces are good quality. The plastic frame is very neat.

The frame that a bought in IKEA is not perfect, and don't know if I was unlucky or not, but it is swollen a little. So it's not a perfect fit, however it is still quite good. The kit allow some room for error, just be careful when buying the frame.

I can't find double led strip so I double one strip and it work just well.

The electromagnet is quite strong and the result is not to noisy.

Overall, I'm very please with this purchase.

Package took a long time to arrive (Canada)

For jolliCube – 8x8x8 LED Cube (SPI) DIY Kit

Exercise caution if ordering from Canada; my package was ordered on May 25th but did not arrive until July 12th. This is not the fault of Tindie or the vendor; it is simply the reality of shipping overseas, customs delays, etc.

Very satisfied

For JF Audio Spectrum Visualizer Board (Basic Kit)

I was so delighted to see it working exactly as publicized and on first attempt that I shot a video: https://youtu.be/7Q3iLHPZltI

This instructables http://www.instructables.com/id/Arduino-Based-Mini-Audio-Spectrum-Visualizer/ was also a good complement to the short documentation provided by this project.

Working as expected ... Best DIY for Beginners

For jolliBot - Arduino based Line Follower DIY Kit

Best DIY have ever came across.

What I liked the most....
1. Communication was the best. All my queries and Request answered in a Day.. Amazing keepit up.
2. Easy documentation . With detail Video and Documentation - Supported with Source code.
3. Shipping was fast with safe package (but compact - that was Good!).
4. Neatly labeled / marked the components. (one of the LED was not working - but no worries had spare with me)
5. Working straight after keenly following the Video tutorial. - This was the amazing part!!!

Some of the Area to improve...
1. One of the LED from the components was not working. Since it was LED, I was able to manage with a spare LED that I had with me.
I hope you take some extra care in sending the components after some basic testing.

2. There are some grey areas though (e.g., soldering Motor Wires based on Polarity), I needed to Zoom the pictures to identify how it was
soldered. The document or marking in the components could have been more detailed for Novice / Beginners.

Great board work but have problem

For JF Audio Spectrum Visualizer Board (Basic Kit)

Hi very fast shipping 5day to Switzerland.
Good card but with a problem of pcb + tagging for the Vcc and the - for the ground it was reversed I almost to grill my component by plugging it is at the connector where there is the i2c output the SDA is SCL is in order but the power marking has been reversed. The rest is in order

Peace of mind

For JF Audio Spectrum Visualizer Board (Basic Kit)

If you buy this you are either too lazy to build up the example circuit from the spec sheet of the MSGEQ7 or it is more economical for you. For me it was both. The board does what it advertises, in a neat little package. I soldered pin headers to the bottom of the board, so I can plug it onto existing arduino nano mother boards which have a double row of pin sockets. Overall very positive. Documentation is somewhat lacking.

Hair | Nov. 8, 2016

Thank you, I have received the product satisfactorily

For jolliCube – 8x8x8 LED Cube (SPI) DIY Kit

Things to improve on the purchase, it would be good to get more information on jf stereo spectrum, for example list of components for this, but otherwise very complete. Many thanks from Bogota, Colombia

Commande du jolliCube

For jolliCube – 8x8x8 LED Cube (SPI) DIY Kit

-Le temps de livraison est tres rapide part avion moins d'une semaine.
-L'embalage est parfait mais pour le montage il pourrait rajouter un peux plus de fils.
-Pour l'assemblage tres bien explique mais manque de petite precision sur le sens d'installation du panneaux de LED sur la plaque electronique (si erreure tous s'affiche a l'envers), attention a bien suivre le sens des fleches pour la connection 5 pin, et installer toute les puces meme pour les essais.

Led cube PC board Assembly

For jolliCube – 8x8x8 LED Cube (SPI) DIY Kit

This is my second order placed on March 2020 real fast shipping, the first one that I ordered back in October 2016 was fun to assemble that I order a second one and the assembly is going along great. Easy to assemble and to wire up. Great product. Keep it up.

Matthew | Oct. 1, 2016

Fantastic

For Large 8x8 LED Matrix Module DIY Kit

Great product easy to assemble, solder and program, so far has been clock, timer and flashing lights to mesmorize the kids with

Michael | July 15, 2016

Nice product, easy to setup..add-on part a little subpar.

For jolliCube – 8x8x8 LED Cube (SPI) DIY Kit

The boards are well made and the setup video was easy to follow. There is a lot of soldering so not a first time project, recommend building a smaller cube. I also bought the component add-on kit and jig. I have had 50 - 60 LEDs that were bad right out of the bag. I have had to order additional LEDs to complete the project, Kit should provide a large amount of spares(include at least 600 leds instead of the 520(add-on said 540, but I only received 520)). Because this board uses the MAX7219 chip, it is a little harder to find other examples to understand the code, there is a nice library MD_Cubo that uses MAX72xx and has some nice docs to add functionality...overall a nice product, fun to build...just not happy with led quality (still waiting on additional LED to finish the project)

Response from jolliFactory | Sept. 3, 2016

Sorry for the late reply and the quality issue you face with the LEDs. We were quite shocked to learn that more than 10% of the LEDs in your kit set were found to be bad out of the bag and that you received only 520 LEDs instead of the stated 540 LEDs.

Our usual practice for this kit is to pack the LEDs in 2 separate packs. One contains 500 LEDs which is machine counted and packed and another is manually packed with 50 LEDs. This gives a total of 550 instead of the 540 LEDs as stated. The LED cube requires only 512 LEDs and the additional 38 LEDs should normally be sufficient for replacements.

We carried out sample checks on our current LED stock and did not find any quality issues with them. We thought we could have a batch of bad LED stock and so we waited to see if there are more similar feedbacks from other buyers. It has been almost 2 months and so far, we did not receive any feedbacks regarding LED quality issues. We hoped it is an isolated case of bad LED quality.

Currently, we only source our LEDs from one vendor. We will not hesitate to look for other vendors if we discover there are quality issues with their supply.

Hope you like the LED cube and we are sorry once again for the bad experience you had with regards to the LED quality issue.

acrylic enclosure

For jolliCube – 8x8x8 LED Cube (SPI) DIY Kit

Hi, i love jolly cube i still haven't received item, but i'd like buy its acrylic enclosure, i have not found anywhere ,let alone in your site.

Response from jolliFactory | June 6, 2016

Thanks for your your interest in our LED cube. Currently, we do not sell the enclosure and do not intend to sell it in the near future. You may build one yourself if you are a handy man or have it custom made which may be quite costly.

We will let you know where to purchase one if we are able to find it.

Asking MORE effects for Jolly Cube.

For jolliCube – 8x8x8 LED Cube (SPI) DIY Kit

Hi Jolly Cube,
I am just a hobbiest of led cube. My first cube is 4x4x4 with arduino. I like using arduino IDE because of easily unstandable programmer. But my knowledge is very limitted to writing codes with C or any other languages. This time i try with 3d8 cube with jolly's kit. I do assembly myself and tested yesterday with your demo code. Amazing! I went through all instructed steps during assembling time. Very convenient to finished the job , ofcourse take time abit. I need to request you to create more EFFECTS for your cube and distribute from Instructable. BTW, you can get the return from the user for your sharing, teaching and generousity with millions thank.

Response from jolliFactory | April 26, 2016

Thanks for taking time to write this review. It gives us a great sense of satisfaction to know buyers are happy with our products.

We hope your review will encourage hobbyist to take the plunge and build this 8x8x8 LED cube though it may look like a difficult project to handle.

We will try to update with more effects for this cube in the near future.

Chris | April 4, 2016

Fun to build, great instructions

For jolliCube – 8x8x8 LED Cube (SPI) DIY Kit

I had no trouble following the instructions, the videos really helped understand exactly what to do.

The only thing I had to put some thought into was making Jig#4. I have no drill stand, so I opted to carefully mark out an 8x8 grid with a very sharp pencil, steel ruler and set square, this worked out well with good accuracy achieved. I then drilled the holes with a battery drill, first with a small pilot drill, then with the 3mm drill. I found it hard to drill holes absolutely vertically, resulting in the leds not quite being vertical, but when viewing the cube running, this is not noticeable.

I also successfully ported the code to run on a Particle Spark Core, so I can wirelessly control the cube.

Response from jolliFactory | April 12, 2016

Thanks for taking the time to write this review.

Glad you managed to successfully complete the LED Cube and even ported the code to run on a Particle Spark Core. We may offer jig#4 as an option for purchase in future for those who may not have the means to build one themselves or do not want to take the trouble to build it.

Great kit- good documentation

For jolliCube – 8x8x8 LED Cube (SPI) DIY Kit

I bought this kit so I could build an LED cube. This is my first cube and I like the fact that its basically built and ready to go. A little bit of soldering is needed (and obviously you have to build the LED cube), but other than that its a great product. I would like my next one to be built from the ground up so that I can better understand how everything works, but the instructable for this does a good job of that. Overall, I am happy.

Response from jolliFactory | Feb. 24, 2016

Thanks for taking the time to review our jolliCube 8x8x8 LED Cube kit. Glad you are happy making your first cube.
Hope your review will encourage potential first time LED Cube builder to take up the challenge to build an 8x8x8 LED Cube instead of building a small LED Cube for a first cube.

William | Jan. 30, 2016

Great kit!

For jolliBot - Arduino based Line Follower DIY Kit

I built this in an afternoon, no problems aside from one or two tight fitting components. Uploaded the code and it ran right from the start. Great project and very well packaged!

Response from jolliFactory | Oct. 4, 2015

Thanks for taking time to write this review. Hopefully, this will boost the confidence of hobbyist to build jolliBot using this kit set.

Awesome Customer Service!

For 60mmx60mm Bicolor LED Matrix Driver Module DIY Kit

Thanks to JolliFactory's wonderful customer service, I finally received my package in Saudi Arabia after two attempts because of the unreliable postal service here. JolliFactory was considerate enough to refund the money of the first package and I really appreciate it. Now, I'm ready to get building for my semester project in an engineering course. Hope it works! Thanks again!

Nikola | March 19, 2015

Great quality and fast shipping!

For 60mmx60mm Bicolor LED Matrix Driver Module DIY Kit

I live in Europe and I must say the order came faster then excepted, the package came as described I have found no complains on that and everything is working properly as it should and as it is described :)

I used them to build the Snake game on Arduino Nano (thanks for that project too), I had no complications to get it to work, here is an image so take a look, srry about the cable over the display but I still did not connect it to an battery so it is kinda in the way :P

My regards. Review Image

Response from jolliFactory | March 19, 2015

Thanks for the time to review our kit set. You may not know it but this little review is very encouraging and means a lot to builders and sellers like us.

We saw that you fabricated a small PCB to interface with our LED Matrix module from the link provided. You may be interested to know that we sell a bare PCB which does what you have built. You may find it at https://www.tindie.com/products/Nick64/jf-interface-board-1-bare-pcb-board-with-headers/. In fact, you may use this board for most of the LED Matrix display projects we built and published on instructables.

Unbelievably slow delivery

For 60mmx60mm Bicolor LED Matrix Driver Module DIY Kit

I ordered 2 of the LED matrix kits one month ago and still do not have them. Not sure why this is taking so long and I wonder if I will ever get them. I needed them for a time sensitive project that has now past its deadline.
I do not recommend ordering from this company unless you live in Singapore or you have the luxury of waiting for a very long time to get your order.

Response from jolliFactory | March 19, 2015

Glad you finally received your LED matrix kits. Hope you enjoy building projects with our kit sets.

Just for those reading this review - The package Peter ordered was dispatched without delay by us but somehow it was stranded within Canada Post according to tracking records for a long period. We had to raise a Registered Article Enquiry through Singapore Post to track the parcel and surprisingly the package was then delivered shortly after.

Veerasamy | Jan. 19, 2015

Excellent response by tindie.

For 60mmx60mm Bicolor LED Matrix Driver Module DIY Kit

Tindie- An excellent source for budding engineers. Received the product in well packed condition. Response to the queries was excellent by JF. Apart from sing postal charges, again I paid $14 for postal charges inside India.

Great kit at a great price.

For 60mmx60mm Bicolor LED Matrix Driver Module DIY Kit

I have 2 of these and they work great. Much easier and probably cheaper than rolling your own.
I use them in my project described in my blog here . . .
http://brohogan.blogspot.com/search/label/Life%20Clock
They are the way to go if you have a matrix project.

Response from jolliFactory | Dec. 28, 2014

Thanks for taking time to write this review. I am glad you like this kit set.

For those reading this review, John is the author who contributed to the article Multiplexing the MAX72xx to Drive a 2 Color Matrix from which I gained the knowledge to build this kit set and projects based on this kit set. You may find his article at http://playground.arduino.cc/Main/MultiplexMAX72xx.

Response from jolliFactory | Dec. 25, 2014

Thanks for the review. Glad you managed to get the kit to work and happy with it.

Note: Here is a little background for those reading this review by Djoko from Indonesia. The first kit set he purchased from us was missing during delivery. We at jolliFactory sent him a FREE kit set out of good-will along with another 2 kit set he subsequently purchased from us. Following this unfortunate event, we decided to send all our items using registered mail.

Good product that works, competitive price and good service

For 60mmx60mm Bicolor LED Matrix Driver Module DIY Kit

I ordered 7 LED Matrix Driver Modules. I live in the USA. At first, I was skeptical ordering parts from overseas, Singapore. Since I am buying multiple modules, I have to find best price available. The package was arrived quicker than I expected. They also included 14 generic MAX7219 ICs and they were all worked fine for me. Customer service from jolliFactory is excellent. He answered all my questions and I was able to successfully build all of the LED Matrix Scrolling Text Display projects.

Response from jolliFactory | Dec. 22, 2014

Glad you like our product and a thousand thanks for the great review. We hope your review will boost potential buyer's confidence in our products.

Mohammed | Dec. 10, 2014

Quick Question!

For 60mmx60mm Bicolor LED Matrix Driver Module DIY Kit

Its been 2 and half weeks and my product has not arrived. I am hoping it arrives by the end of this week and was wondering how long it usually takes for your products to arrive to the customer.

Response from jolliFactory | Dec. 22, 2014

We communicated through private messages about this issue of late delivery. Glad you finally received your Bi-color LED Matrix Module kits. We found that the items you ordered reached Canada within 5 working days from the day you ordered via the tracking code provided to you. We simply cannot understand why the postal service in Canada took another 11 workings days to deliver the items to you.
