Review on πŸ”© HVAZI 320pcs M2.5 Nylon Hex Spacer Standoffs Screws Nuts Assortment Kit; Black Male-Female by Louis Abrams

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Wrong size for Raspberry Pi helmets - questionable quality overall

Please note potential buyers these racks will not work with a Raspberry Pi Hat system. The correct height for the pi hat stands is 11mm - right between the 10mm and 12mm stands that come with this kit. I'm embarrassed that I didn't notice this when I bought this kit based on other misleading reviews, but that's not a reason for the 3 stars as I figured I could still use them for other parts of the project, on that I worked. However, the quality of nylon parts and threads varies greatly. Many parts still had the extra plastic tabs over the threads, and some still would not thread into other good quality M2.5 metal racks without visible problems. Existing M2.5 screws also had problems with some. If you're just using the hardware in this kit you might be fine, but trying to make it work with other M2.5 components is a gamble.

Pros
  • Best in niche
Cons
  • It's ok
