Defective circuit board and/or library

This device did not work for me. At some brightness percentages the bulb is dim, at others it is completely off, and at others it shines at full power. Seemingly random when I went up (20%, 30%). Tried multiple bulbs with the same result. I can't tell if it was a hardware issue or a software library issue. First, the packaging was terrible - just wrapped in a thin piece of styrofoam in an anti-static bag (not a box) and then shipped in bubble wrap - so it's possible the device was damaged inโ€ฆ

Pros
  • AC phase control circuit (dimmer circuit) / home automation, school projects, work related projects
Cons
  • Functionality

Blown out 2 of my desktop fans

Plugged it in, blinked esp32 then smelled like burning. Are the fans dead now? Be careful. I feel like it's half my fault, half theirs. They provide a semi-finished library hosted on Github that probably needs tweaking to prevent this from happening.

Pros
  • Applications: AC/DC motor controller, AC electric pump, AC tools, AC fan
Cons
  • Hard to remember but it was

2 of my desktop fans burned out

Plugged in, flashed esp32 and then smelled burnt. Are the fans dead now? Be careful. I feel like it's half my fault, half theirs. They provide a semi-finished library hosted on Github that probably needs tweaking to prevent this from happening.

Pros
  • Computers and accessories
Cons
  • Doubtful purchase for the elderly
