Smraza Basic Starter Kit: Breadboard, Power Supply, Jumper Wires, Resistors, LED - Arduino R3, Mega2560, Nano, Raspberry Pi Compatible Review

on the power board shows that it accepts a voltage of 712V and there are jumpers to select the 5V or 3.3V output. Jumper on 5V, output 12V. (Meanwhile, if you set the jumper on 3.3V, the 3.3V output will work as shown.) I'm not sure if this is my misunderstanding or a problem with the board is.

I would give this product 5 stars and it's still worth the money but I've had a couple of sweaters that didn't have a through hole. My only guess is that the connectors weren't crimped enough to penetrate the wire jacket. I spent quite a bit of time wondering why my Arduino project wasn't reading data just to test the jumpers and found I had at least 3 bad ones in the bunch. However 4 stars with such caution.

The product represented good value for money but I would be much happier if it contained the information promised. In the box was a card with a link to the tutorial for the kit, that link went nowhere. So I emailed the company asking for information and waited 4 days with no response. So yes it's a good price but I didn't get what I think I was promised.

There is no tutorial for this base kit on the website. Yes there is a PDF on: Arduino and R-Pi but NOT for the basics. This kit does not include these more advanced items. The components in the kit appear to be of very good quality and I can say the power supply works well as do some of the resistors and LEDs but without instructions using the buzzer, ICs etc means a lot of research. We will, but were hoping for some projects (other than LED backlighting) - right out of the box.

This set is fun to play with. When I first received the kit, the power button worked for maybe a dozen presses and then failed in the on position. So power was still coming to the device, but I couldn't turn it off. I wrote to Smraza who responded very quickly and sent a new set. I stated that only the power adapter is needed, but they immediately sent a whole new set. Excellent service and interesting product. (Small pushbutton switches are difficult to install on a breadboard. You have to…
