5Pcs Longruner Arduino Mini Nano V3.0 ATmega328P Micro Controller Board Module With USB Cable For ArduinoIDE Review

They work great, once you install a boot loader. It is really annoying for me to do though, because I didn't want to install the pin headers that you need to do it for my project. Plus, I think it would be required to state in the description that another, working Arduino board is required to make these work. The only other working Arduino that I had was installed in another project, so I had to take it all apart and use it, then reinstall it and reflash it. I was able to do it, but I wish that

These are at a good price and very reliable. I have used many of them over the past few months and they all worked falwlessly. I have connected to these little boards an array of analogue sensors and used them to control 2812 LED strips without a problem. Some projects like the board in the pictures have plenty of code running to deal with multiple photo resistors, led lights wireless communication and self calibration. This Arduino compatible board is not just a good inexpensive solution but…

Whenever I want to build a new Arduino project have to tear down my previous project to reuse the Arduino to build a new. Now that I can get these nanos for less than 4 dollars each it becomes practical to use a new micro controller each time.These nanos by Longruner work well and appeared to be well made. I expect I will be buying more.

This joystick is HUGE and the buttons are LONG and kinda hard to press! This set is meant for a MAME cabinet and not fightsticks.

All of the nano units I received will not take an upload from the arduino software! They are useless. Maybe I got a bad batch?

An elections component like these, either works or doesn’t. I have used 3 that worked just fine. They came packaged neatly.

Nano from this retailer will only work on Windows.Only if you download and install ‘Ch340ser.exe’ for drivers.In IDE select ATmega328pThese Nano will not function with Linux on Raspberry PiSo that’s why only 3 stars

All three boards that I purchased are in good working condition. They came individually packaged in static shielding bags, and they also had none of the pins soldered (which I preferred). I did run into a couple small issues when trying to load a program on the boards, so I'll share them for your reference:1. I was unknowingly using a charge only Mini-B USB cord when initially trying to upload a program. I wasted a bunch of time thinking that I didn't have the correct drivers before I realized…

This is a great product. First of all, it arrived promptly, which is not always the case with amazon. I ordered it for 2 day shipping and it arrived in the morning of the second day. The packaging was good, Arduinos individually wrapped in electro-protective coating. Its always annoying when sensitive electronics arrive without static protection.These were all then boxed in a sturdy cardboard box.Note that you will need a mini cable to access these Arduinos. This is basically the cable used to…

Let me just say that out of the literal hundreds of Arduino Nano clones I’ve owned, these are the absolute most frustrating units. All 12 I received have eventually failed in very strange ways running very simple and safe experiments. The analog pins (non specific) fail, same goes with the digital pins. It’s the craziest thing. They just stop working and you spend hours troubleshooting thinking you had something wrong in your circuit only to find out it’s just the board having hardware failure…

Good value, and they work well. But you need to find the right driver for the chip. They will not work with the standard Arduino IDE without it. Once you've installed the Chinese driver, they work very well. I'm using them to control led strips inside small lasercut boxes.

Great little chips. Can't beat the price and you can do so much with them. I haven't tested all of them, but the ones I have used all have worked.

Haven't had a chance to use it yet as I'm in the process of building a bartop arcade machine. However I can feel the quality. The buttons have a nice smooth action and a solid click when depressed. The joystick is also solid and a lot heavier than expected with good action as well. Great price and fast shipping make this a fantastic buy.

All 10 of my Nano boards came with the wrong bootloader installed.That is why many have not been able to program them.I found that selecting the Genuine Uno as the board and not the nano works.You can also reflash the bootloader to nano. That works.I do not advise buying these boards. I wasted several hours due to the manufacturers mistake.

These are well made and packaged Nano boards. So far I've only done limited testing on one unit, but with very positive results. I'll update this review after more testing. The only issue I encountered was that I could not initially connect to the boards even with the most current Arduino IDE software on either a MAC or Windows computer. Research showed that these boards require the CH340G driver. I found excellent information and links on the driver at a web site that includes the text…

I bought because i thought they were pre-soldered, based on the first picture showing the items with pins inserted. Upon further inspection after receiving items, the remaining pictures make it clear they are not pre-soldered. Disappointed. Hopefully they all work.

5 very small arduinos, so far none of the ones I tested were DOA witch is a good sign. There what you would expect and seem to work well.

Some of my projects mount in shallow cases and I’ve had trouble with clearances. With these I solder right angle pins from the top which allows them to lay very flat and the pins take molex connectors out to the various sensors and displays. For power and ground I make small buss bars from the pins they provide and seal the common bar with hot glue.They require flashing of course so I just get the burner nano set up and do them all at once.

Although it stated that there was a boot loader installed, there was not. I bought these specifically so I would not have to mess around with loading the boot loader. Luckily, I had a spare Uno around that I could use to burn the boot loader on these. I still have yet to actually use any of these- stars may change when I try to run my sketch

As mentioned in prior reviews and now in the product description. This uses the ch340G driver. If you are new to Arduino IDE or on a new computer, it won't work with Windows 10 automatically till you install this driver from the Chinese company. Windows does not autoinstall the driver either.(Use google). If this makes you nervous, buy the official version. Product image shows the headers soldered - description is correct in that they come unsoldered -as many folks prefer.
