Amazing product. Enjoyed very much putting it together. Now to try some 3d printed cases for it.
I was super excited to see that my kit was arriving today in Rhode Island. I was expecting it to show up this coming Tuesday based on my order. Fluxed it up and assembled in half an hour. :) Followed the video to get the software setup on Windows 11 and loaded to the ESP without any difficulty. It was so easy that I think the real challenge is getting the software to do even cooler things. it just worked :) !!!
Received my Info Orbs last night and had it all soldered up in a few minutes. I think I spent more time downloading and setting up Platform.io than on the hardware. I brought it to our monthly "Build Night" at Idea Foundry Columbus, our local Makerspace, and everyone loves how it looks.
Easy to assemble, easy to program! Works great!
Arrived with everything packed well and ready to go. Extremely satisfied with everything.
