Does not include everything needed to program it
For Raspberry Pi Automatic ON/OFF V3.0 (NEW Version)
While this may end up being a great product ... shipping took forever and after purchasing I'm now realizing it does not include everything needed in order to install any python scripts or modify the startup/shutdown parameters. This was not clear until downloading the documentation.
Apparently more hardware is needed to do this. The description made it seem like you just hook pwr gnd and acc and your done. Also seems like there are additional recommended hardware to add inline for the pwr and acc lines.

Hi Troy,
thanks for the review!
The order was made on Aug. 30. 2012, sent 02.Sep.2021. 19:34:17, delivered 17.Sep.2021 16:04:00, not so bad for this COVID time ...
As you can read in the product description, it is clearly written: "To change this values you need any USB / TTL serial adapter (CP2102, CH340G, ...)." ...
The product normally has reprogrammed (default) values, as written in the description, and as such works immediately after connecting the connecting wires to the screw terminal ...
So a USB / TTL adapter is not required for the device to work ....
All the best,
Marko
