It's worth every penny!

The length of the cable and its flexibility were decisive when creating my photo box. The cable had to run from the Raspberry Pi up through the top of the case to the bellows chamber. The cable works flawlessly and allows me to take great pictures of people at parties and family gatherings.

Pros
  • Like everything before
Cons
  • 0

Worked for Octoprint!

I used this to connect my RPi camera to an RPi 4. It's black so it matches my Ender 3 perfectly! There are no communication or quality problems.

Pros
  • Great for a small home
Cons
  • Ugly packaging

I needed some long cables to connect cameras to my Raspberry Pi to monitor a 3D printer. I tend to have enough distance between the Pi and the camera, so these longer cables work well for that. The price is reasonable and the black cables are aesthetically pleasing for the setup. No complaints except that the pack really isn't reusable so I have all the extras I haven't used but refuse to keep them tidy.

Pros
  • Computer Components
Cons
  • Can't remember

So far, so good. One week. It's out of the box and works fine. I have read/heard that these cameras are very sensitive to static electricity. I would recommend being cautious if you have this in your area. I don't think these ribbon cables are very secure, so I'd recommend glue or tape to prevent them from partially pulling out if you accidentally tug on them. I think that might be more of an issue with longer cables like this one.

Pros
  • Single Board Computer
Cons
  • Doubt

Breaks easily even when not moved

So far I've ordered 2 of these because I need a black cable to connect the Pi to the Pi's camera. The image shows what the camera shows when the cable breaks, there is a flashing pink filter over the image about every half second. The first one broke right in Amaon's return window so I returned it. The second is "broken" after 3 months. I use these with my 3D printer to set it up and then leave it alone so the cable shouldn't break. I am very disappointed that this cable breaks while…

Pros
  • Computers and accessories
Cons
  • Long delivery time
