The set comes in a small unadorned plastic assortment box, where everything is very tightly packed. Unfortunately, this also some pins z. B. from the LC display were slightly bent.
The Arduino Uno is a clone of SainSmart, but makes a good impression. Very good is the battery holder for 6xAA battery / batteries. A guide or CD is not included in the set, this can, however, be downloaded from the SainSmart page.
This pattern has been quite mixed and a beginner or Elektroniklaie should possibly get a point or another on the difficulties, since the components are not always well described and z. B. the LC display has a different pin designation as indicated in the instructions (the Ground-pin is the included screen with VDD labeled).
Through the blue body of the resistors, the code is not easy to see because of red already gladly times is brown. For this, however, you have a multimeter at hand.
Even the USB cable has fallen badly short - something you have lying around but anyway.
The projects in the guidance are widely available and you can here also serve other sources. When Keypad apparently the Keypad.h library does not fit, so this fails to compile. It can integrate but also different.
The mini breadboard has often considerable contact problems, which the novice should also like to conduct even in the wrong direction. The best start to use the supplied large breadboard. The Breadboard cable are sufficient only for smaller experiments. If you want to combine functions and create real applications, should you feel the same a few ordered separately.
Basically, however, all these are no real problems, we must not forget only that it is not simply a Lego-art box, but it revolves around serious electronics development, for which you should already have some relevant basic knowledge to make it right is funny.
Through a few extra components is my irrigation control with humidity sensor, wireless pump control, web server and weather information query already in the works. And the flash points of the photo studio is already. A favorable Ethernet Shield is:; camp = 1638 & creative = 19454 & creativeASIN = B009N826DY & Linkcode = as2 & tag = nbamz-21 & LinkId = RQURK3GW5P6RQT5S
The biggest problem with this set is: It's addictive and the nights are short seeeehr.
