“I used the Pico to hide in my bosses office desk lamp to run a small website that i could use to turn the lamp on and off remotely (non wifi/bluetooth lamp) hours of fun so far, still hasn't figured it out yet.
Cannot fault the product at all, packaging was perfect, deliverytime was perfect with good tracking.
Thanks Pi Hut! (im going to mess with his PC speakers next with a small motor)”
“I am setting up 'Home Hub' system based on a central Linux host logging inputs from, and sending control instructions to, various peripheral devices over my WLAN. I looked at various options for peripheral microcontrollers and settled on the Pico because: (a) it is inexpensive (b) it seems technically very capable - plenty of GPIO pins, fast(ish) CPU, plently of flash memory/SRAM and (c) (perhaps most importantly) it is easy to program using either the well documented RPi SDK, the Arduino IDE or (I believe - though I haven't tried) MicroPython .
I now have three of these devices working reliably as as TCP clients to my central host and can certainly recommend them for this sort of thing.”
“the first Pico Pico came damaged, the envelope had shoe marks and the board was crumpled, I filed a complaint and got a return label, after sending it back I quickly got a new Rapperry Pi Pico in .
Efficient and recommendable service, unfortunately the next PI came in the same envelope as before, i.e. with a high risk of damage.
Despite everything, I recommend this service and the Raspberry Pi Pico as a great controller for controlling small projects.
Great controller for a great price.”
