Soldering Practice Kit 3 Leaves LED Rotating Gyroscope DIY Kit Soldering Project Electronics Kit Soldering Practice Kit for Kids Adult ISolderStore

I was worried at first since it seems complicated but it wasn't that bad. perfect project to get confident in smd soldering, you'll be a pro by the end of this one. the toy is a good quality and fun to play with once you're done also

This is a cool fidget spinner project. Took only a few minutes to assemble and works perfectly. I tried to take a video, but the video does not do it justice due to the framerates. If you are able to solder smd components and are looking for a fun gadget, I recommend this kit.

The assembly wasn't complicated qualitywas on the money the performance was also ok and the brightness was where I had problems because not of them turn on I dont know where I screwed up I have never send back anything that I have to assemble and don't work because it could it been me that screwed up. With all that said Im going to take my time to disorder the leds and put new ones also if you do not know where is negative and positive on the board that make difficult for the new person.

I generally look for projects i can practice soldering and then give it to my daughter. In the end she loved this. Its well made and everything is secured in the plastic housing so I'm not worried about the batteries falling out or anything like that. I would say that you shouldn't take this project on if you aren't perhaps moderate at soldering. The led's resistors, etc are very small. I have a microscope and tweezers so it was fine but if I didn't the project would have been impossible. Two tips, buy the 3 CR 1620s necessary as they aren't included. Second, mount the surface mount IC before the tiny capacitor and resistor next to it. Its far easier with those two smaller parts not yet on the board. I had to unmount and remount the IC as I didn't do a good job the first pass getting all the legs connected.

Bought this for a kid learning to solder but turns out it’s a pretty advanced kit requiring experience, skill and a high-quality magnifier. For us, it wasn’t even clear what parts went where because there was only a schematic. (The online instructions were basically the same thing.) Oh… you also need special batteries that aren’t included.

This is a nice toy, but I would not recommended for kids or beginners, it is not easy to solder.

I'm an electrical engineer, but (and as a surprise to most people) never was taught anything about soldering in college. At the time, I guess it was always assumed you would be working with technicians that would help with this stuff. Well, guess what, many companies don't have the luxury of hiring techs anymore. So, many times I've had to solder and learn on my own. I've been pretty good at through-hole, but surface mount has always made me nervous (especially tiny 0603's close together). I did this kit using just a decent iron with a skinny tip and a cheap digital microscope (this is a must unless you have eyes better than the sharpest eyed eagle!) I thought the MCU would be the hardest part to do, but it was not. I had only 4/11 LED's working initially, and after checking my connections, I found bad solders I made on the LED's. So in the end, I have 9/11 LED's going (enough to see cool patterns). Not sure why D6 and D11 would not work in the end. Checked all diode connections to MCU, checked all 11 resistor to diode, and all resistors to VCC, even swapped with spare LEDs given. Possibly the GPIO ports got damaged during soldering in the MCU. Anyways, I highly recommend this kit. As a bonus, you can give it to the kids to play with afterwards, lol! Don't forget to get a decent microscope (especially if you are age 45+ like me, lol)...

*This kit contains a printed circuit board with high-quality microcircuit components, but the components are incredibly small and require precision tools for attaching or detaching, which may not be readily available. *This DIY kit can be a fun project for those with the required tools and expertise. Take your time and don't be afraid to ask for help.Are you interested in a DIY project that is both fun and challenging? This kit might be exactly what you are looking for! It contains a printed circuit board with high-quality microcircuit components such as microchips, transistors, and LEDs that are comparable to those found in the latest tech devices.However, the components are incredibly small and require precision tools for attaching or detaching, which may not be readily available. While it can be a fun project for professionals, novice hobbyists may find it challenging.When I opened the package, I found the project quite tricky. The tiny components made it difficult to read the text on them, and the instructions were not very clear. Unfortunately, I ended up losing some of the parts, which were absorbed into the environment.In conclusion, this DIY kit can be a fun project for those with the required tools and expertise. If you're a novice, it might be challenging, but don't let that discourage you. Take your time, and don't be afraid to ask for help. It's a great conversation starter, and the result could be a fantastic piece of tech that you can show off to your friends and family.
