Cool rig but burnt out in a day

I used this on a 0w raspberry pi with rhasspy installed. Installation was easy with online scripts. Features are great for the price. It worked pretty well, but after a day or so I could smell a strong odor of burnt electronics. The central main chip seems to have blown itself up. The product is cool but useless if it doesn't even last a day.

Pros
  • 24bit I2S Dac 2x1.3W stereo amp for external speakers
Cons
  • Useless features

WILL NOT WORK ON RASPBERRY PI ZERO W

I tried many different methods to get this product to work. This is the same audio encoder (WM8960) as the launch speaker and many other audio hats. All of them seem to stop working on Raspberry Pi Zero W. They don't work at all! I've tried following the install instructions and rebooting many times. It just doesn't work. Avoid the headache and don't buy this or any other WM8960 audio encoder for Raspberry Pi anywhere!

Pros
  • Built-in stereo speakers
Cons
  • New competitors have arrived

Cool unit but blew out within a day

Pros
  • Headphone out (24 bit)
Cons
