Review on Comprehensive ELEGOO Electronics Component Pack: Arduino UNO, MEGA, Raspberry Pi Compatible with Resistors, LEDs, Switch, Potentiometer by Tony York

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Good quality, but really just an extra set.

An interesting if simple prototyping kit. The quality is very good and contains a large number of high quality elements that you can find in other kits, including LEDs, resistors, etc. An interesting component is the optocoupler. I have used these kits from other brands including HSU, CanaKit and Freenove and this is the only kit that includes a 4N35 chip. There's also a small box with thicker molded falls, which you can see in the top-left corner of the exploded view; Again something I've never experienced before. Those items aside, this kit limits your experimentation with the Raspberry Pi or Arduino if that's all you get with one of them. This is a good addition to a kit with many components, as it lacks some of the typical elements found elsewhere such as various transistors, diodes, relays and especially sensors. All of this is also well packed in a nice little case. If you go to their website (elegoo.com/downloads/) you will see that this kit was actually designed to be used with the Arduino Uno. And since Elegoo makes several similar kits that include the Arduino Uno (and with a variety of components), I'm a bit curious as to how this kit fits into their product line.
