I bought the ready-soldered kit for my wife to use in one of our Raspberry Pi's, I was thoroughly impressed by the looks of it and the very nice quality when it arrived. Breaking it out of the board was a little tricky and did take a bit of careful brute force, but once out it was straightforward to plug in and get going. It looks really good when working and is very easy to program, my wife has now had her first experience of python and SSH to connect to it and has customised some of the scripts to have it running how she would like while it sits on her desk. I can thoroughly recommend this and I am a little sad that I didn't order 2 of them so I can have one as well !

Very easy to program using Python examples under the Software section. Bought pre-soldered so was up and working after 10 minutes or so.

Fantastic way to get the kids in the mood for Christmas and teach them a bit of tech at the same time :)

The Christmas tree is really nice to display. I put mine in the living room window. I’m not proficient at soldering, I am improving. Soldering the components onto the circuit board was fun and excellent practice.

I bought the "pre-soldered" version. The assembly did not take me more than 1/2 hour. Only weld the sides of the tree and the pins of the Raspberry. Then just install the system, test the examples and make my own program. Here you have the result ... https://www.instagram.com/p/BcRrBRcAsPv/?taken-by=blackhole66

The pre soldered kit was a hit with my 6yo and the solder kit was a hit with my 11yo. Now they have their own trees in their rooms.
