Review on Re_Computer Stackable Compatible ODYSSEY X86J4105 BeagleBone by Janet Nelson

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Similar fan issues are good for computer components

Overall I wouldn't recommend the Odyssey, but you may need to fiddle around a bit to get it working properly. Just like many people have described my 4-wire PWM 5V devices, the fan was not working. Even after applying the new BIOS update. The Seeed website has a fan pinout. This is the exact opposite of the standard PWM CPU fan pinout. Pin 1 on the Odyssey is the signal line and pin 4 is ground. It's either that or the board has a wrong pin 1. The board has 3 power pins, so I plan on just buying a regular 3-wire fan and using that instead. I give 3 stars because it's not a total loss. Everything else works perfectly.

Pros
  • Pretty packaging
Cons
  • -
