Review on πŸ”Š Enhance Models and Crafts with Talking Products: MP3 Recordable Sound Chip Module, 4MB Memory, AAA Battery Box Included by Steve Guillen

Revainrating 2 out of 5

It worked, then the solder fell off.

I saw it for the first time and it looked fragile - too fragile to be a product for a consumer to handle and in a condition suitable for a manufacturer or chip expert. This should be put in a stuffed animal. After programming the sound I wanted, inserting the batteries and testing, I heard the sound, it worked perfectly, and then the wires that connect to the board came loose. Then, trying to figure out how to fix something so small, the solder connecting the trigger to the button also came loose. Nothing I did could cause this because everything was laid out on the table while I programmed and prepared it. Apply electronics safe glue to all soldered ends to keep them from coming loose. The wires are so thin that even if I wanted to solder it myself, as someone who doesn't solder, it would probably burn everything around the solder joints before any solder really sticks. Everything is so close together and small. Now it's a waste of money and not even worth trying to fix.

Pros
  • Multiple playback options including button and ambient light sensor.
Cons
  • Not everything fits
