Easiest way to attach breakouts to a Raspberry Pi. Great work on this one!

My soldering is a bit flaky at best, so I used this Mini Garden with a Hammer Header to plug in a BME280 (temp, pressure, humidity) sensor so I can monitor cellar temperature for homebrewing beer. Easy as pi (sorry, I'll get my coat).

It'a a must-have if you want convenient Pimoroni breakout boards and just like me are allergic to soldering :D

Works great. Totally plug and play! No problems at all.

Very handy for testing and setting up the breakouts without having to solder on a header. The SPI section has me doing some head scratching though. I have yet to get my 1.3' SPI Color LCD working. It needs better documentation on the SPI setup and use. The installer will only hunt for i2c connected devices.

Very handy for two sensors and a display and fits nicely on a Pi Zero. Would be great to have stand-off pillars for the far edge but a couple of nylon bolts and nuts fixed that. You do not need to solder anything to use :-) Simplest way of loading the software on Buster is to use the links from each sensor rather than the hodgepodge of notes on the Internet / Forums.
