Good module, decent sound, easy to use

This module does exactly what it promises in my tests. At first I thought I had a bad block, but I tested in a bright, sunny spot. To reset, the module must be in total darkness, then any light will work. Works great in the typical home/office spaces: first aid kit, drawer, refrigerator (diet alert?). Took the full 30 seconds and from my video he recorded and played the music GREAT with the mic next to the computer speakers.

Pros
  • Impressive
Cons
  • Repair

Great device, great price

This recorder is great! It is very easy to download music. Built-in power supply with rechargeable batteries via USB port. Volume control, on/off and light sensor on/off. USB uses a micro data cable to download music from an MP3 file. plug and play I made a little drawer under this jewelry box so it's dark when it's closed and as soon as the light hits the sensor music plays. I used duct tape to secure the speaker so it doesn't vibrate against the wood. She hasn't failed yet. The volume can…

Pros
  • Rugged construction
Cons
  • Ugly packaging

Love it! Great for scrapbooking!

This is a great recorder for your creative needs. I wasn't sure how well it would work for its intended purpose, but I'm happy to say it works beautifully. My husband and I are going to visit Pearl Harbor next month and I wanted something special for the album. I recorded 25 seconds of President Roosevelt's famous speech to Congress. December 7, 1941, a date that will live in shame. I have a voice recorder in front of my scrapbook and when the cover opens you can hear this famous speech. . The…

  • Pretty packaging
Cons
  • Some nuances

You need a ***DATA** micro USB cable, not just a charging cable

No instructions were included with the device, but the landing page for this product should be extremely simple, so who cares! Apparently I do. Now, do yourself a favor, scroll up the Product Information section and find the User Manual in the Datasheet section. This is the only place you will find it. After looking into Device/Disk Manager, editing registries, and doing countless Google searches as to why my computer isn't recognizing this device, I checked the item's description for company…

Pros
  • Slim design
Cons
  • Slightly wrinkled

Great little music player for DIY projects

I bought this to make a little music box for my wife. It was easy to use and with some samples of music files I was able to pack 4 songs into the 8MB internal memory. With the size of the speaker, you just can't expect fantastic sound quality, so there's no point in having really high quality, high bitrates, and therefore large audio files. I've used VLC to export to mono at 64kbps or 96kbps and they sounded ok and allowed me to insert more files. The light sensor works great so it only works…

Pros
  • Consistent test results
Cons
  • Negative result available

Very easy to use; almost an hour of lullabies

I ended up using it for another project that was originally planned when I bought it. A new project was a mini music box for my little son. I used an old phone charger connector and connected it directly to the red and white power wires on this board. I bought a small plastic box from Revain and used a spare heavy duty button that had lying around. I drilled a few holes, installed the speaker, routed the power wire, and mounted/rewired the original button. I connected this board to my Windows…

A neat unit that can be "hacked " for other uses!

This is a nice little digital recorder/player. I bought it with the idea of using it in a package or greeting card as stated on the product listing. But it soon turned into a fun little gadget that could be easily hacked. At first I couldn't get the device to play my message. I recorded the message, placed the device in the dark for a few seconds, then exposed it to the light and waited for it to play. It didn't play. Since it was late, I turned off the light and went to bed. The next morning I

Pros
  • Heavy Duty

  • Damaged

It's awesome! for digital voice recorders

So I have a cool project where I am making a little music box that is pulled by a steam train and plays candy themed music! This little candy (HA! See what I did?!? ;)) was exactly what the Candy Man ordered! I ordered it a day or two ago and it arrived today while I was at work. Took it out of the packaging. , well packaged and safely on its way to me, and connected to my computer with the micro USB cable lying around. (This is not included, you will need to provide your own.) I heard the…

Pros
  • Easy setup
Cons
  • There are other interesting options.

Operation and functions

Very neat product. Depending on the size of your MP3 file, you can get well over a minute. The only real problem I had was that there were no instructions included with the kit. Because of this, I don't have a clear idea of what the switch does. At first I thought this would switch the device from PC available to battery powered, however the onboard storage was available in either position. When I applied 5V DC the device didn't start until I flipped that switch. In one position it accepts DC…

Pros
  • Robust construction
Cons
  • Without automation
