Circuit board and case have been made to a high standard. Instructions for building the SD card could be made clearer. Now need to get into using this machine, been 45 years since Nascom 2. Looks like MOS is back level (V 1.04 RC1) because REN and TYPE don't work, read somewhere need higher version. BBC BASIC (Z80) is V3.00, *VERSION says BBC BASIC (Agon) V1.05. Downloaded V 1.06 and 24 bit version. Unsure how to upgrade MOS. Documentation is online but scattered over multiple sites and not always consistant. Readme files need software version number and manuals need the latest links. Spend 41 years in IT, proper documentation is vital. Hardware 5* but documentation 3*.

Hi Jamie, I had a question about the product, but just had to take a chance but my gripe is companys like yours do not publish a phone number to ask (sometimes) a simple question, as the email questions don't work as you need a immediate answer !

Everything is great except the sipping price, also would would be good if client should not pay the toll fee.

Pi Hut has always been my first shopping choice when it comes to electronic devices and microcomputer. As a person with a passion in Mechatronics, the products that Pi Hut offers are really robust, durable and accessible for both newbies and professionals.

I was having issues with my Raspberry Pi 3 (Model B) as the USB Plug that I was using had too low of a voltage, and was causing issues with my Pi, and slowing it down. The Pi Hut came to the rescue, and helped me out with a plug that I was unable to find anywhere else, that’s perfect for my Pi! No more ‘low voltage’ warnings. Thanks Pi Hut for delivering this the very next day, with tracked shipping, at a very cheap price! Will definitely be coming back again, soon…!

Fab store, just a shame that some of the piromoni items were cheaper on their site.

The audiologist recommended the glue ear headset for our daughter (age 3). The delivery itself was really fast which was great. The headset is fantastic and the sound is really clear - the only thing is as she is still quite small the headset is quite big for her and heavy so she doesn’t find it very comfortable to wear. But we’re hoping we can find a way for her to use it more to help her hearing. Overall would shop here again though.

Well, I bought an RPi5, a plastic box, PSU and a cooling fan. First point, I didn't know ther was a fan in the plastic box - not well advertised. Also not pointed out clearly is the fact that the HDMI soclest are the super mini size. No adaptor cable offer was made with it on the website. Also, no indication of good SDRAM cards was given. I think I must have bought slow ones. Further, setting up was / is remarkably difficult compared with any of the earlier RPis, I have had them all. And... good stuff is coming folks, but and... the out of the box setting of headless access via ssh and VNC was extraordinarilly slow. I think this was something to do with the fact I set start up conditions in the card formatter. Password did not stick ! OK, now the good bits - it is quicker eventually !

Reviews are a bit problematic for me. If you got the product to me in good time, in good condition and not too expensivelly, that is what I expect from suppliers. You did all that. If, somehow, you went beyond that I would praise you. As you did all that was expected of you, I am satisfied. C. Irwin Hutchinson

Selecting and purchasing the items we're straight forward. I did expect a free delivery based on second class postage, but that was not an option. Delivery was by either 1st class or express. Having chosen the former I was extremely pleased to receive the items first thing the next day. This is not the usual fare I can tell you. Well done!

Good stuff from Pi Hut and I expect to be doing more business with them. One request would be to have spec and data sheets for all the items available. For example the 5mm LED/photransistor pair sensor is internally connected in common emmitter mode (would rather have common collector) but it didnt say this at the point of sale.

Very comprehensive and complete selection of RPi components, accessories, etc. Fast and reliable delivery. The frist "go to" place for RPi shopping. Ideas for improvement: - It's very confusing to select the compnents that match (cases, drives, hats, etc). I think a configurator of some sort would be very desirable, when I start with the purpose I am shopping for (generic RPi, RPi with a camera, etc) and then compatible selections follow: (1) board, (2) case, (3) hat(s), and so on... And we end up with a complete hardware configuration in the basket. And we are sure we have everything we need. - Otherwise, a compatibility cross-check for components would be useful. - For given set/selection of items, it would be nice to get all the manuals linked in the email for the order, possibly including some tutorials for installation, configuration, and so on.

I was bought a Raspberry Pi Pico advent calendar for in December2023 and that was a good first, introduction to Micro comtrollers. I have then used the Pico and the Liquid Crystal display from the Advent Calendar ,with relays and reed switches (sourced from others) to automate one track on my model railway. The Pico randomly selects the route the model train takes and randomly stops the train at various stations. I have now purchased a second Pico and LCD display (from the Pi Hut) to automate a second track. The second LCD I purchased from ther Pi Hut was from a different manufacturer than the one supplied with the advent calender and it took me a little while to realise the different software and commands required to control the second LCD ( I2C) device. I still have some optimisation to do on the first model railway track and will then automate a second track. I use the LCD to show the various steps the Pico is running as it helps me understand what the Pico program is doing allowing me to debug my program. I did take me a while to start to understand Micro Python and Thonny; but I am pleasantly suprised in what I , a retired person, can achieve in 3 months. Why did I buy from the Pi Hut; the price seemed competative with others and they did deliver on time

My Pi5 kit arrived much sooner than expected so that was good. The setup instructions could have been a bit more detailed but over all a good experience.

The purchase was well packed and left Pi Hut promptly on its way to the US. A pity that DHL was the carrier, as after two days in the UK they shipped it by road to Germany and eventually 11 days after it shipped it arrived in the USA. Perhaps the post would have been quicker, at least it would have avoided a road journey to Germany.

Great item at a resalable price. Superfamily delivery. Only lost one star as I think.that the pi board should be better secured inside its packaging. Circuit boards are quite delicate after all. Will definitely be buying from them again in the future. Thanks again.
