The HDMI adaptors are a bit over-insulated, and won't fit some connectors due to this. Fortunately, they can be shaved and then peeled, using a sharp knife (and a cutting mat, thick gloves, and eye protection). This reveals much-thinner sockets, attached to a PCB, and a plastic collar around the larger socket, which can also be removed. If that's still not enough space-saving for you, the larger shield can be pulled off (I haven't tested how well it works without a shield yet, although it still plugs in fine) and the end of the PCB shortened by about 5mm, saving even more space. Some insulation coating may need to be removed after shortening the PCB.

These adaptors work perfectly with my raspberry pi W. Ordered another and on their way!

Must-have for the raspberry pi 0, makes running much more easier then setting it up in headless mode.

Well nearly everything. But connector wise so you can connect the zero up it is. But why not treat yourself to a case as well and then have great looks to go with the stylish leads.

This kit is a requirement for most uses/initial setups of the Raspberry Pi Zero, to allow plugging in a regular HDMI Monitor/TV and also standard USB Peripherals. Well priced, and goes really well with the RPi0 to make a lightweight starter kit, for barely over double the price of the board on its own. Quality is decent.
