GeeekPi Micro Python Programing Kit for Raspberry Pi Pico, Breadboard, I2C 1602 LCD Display Module for Raspberry Pi Beginners & Software Engineer

good stuff for my grandkids to teach them, love it.

Very impressed with the kit. Perfect starting point for everyone. Some sensors could be higher models but overall no point to complain! P.S. 1. to stop continuous beeping connect one of the ground pins to the beeping pin as it is showen in pictures attached. 2. If Arduino IDE doesn't see the board just click to upload the code anyways, it will work and the port will appear

Had a blast and a lot of essential things included that come in handy for other projects. Great little kit!

Ok

Pros, the kit really has a wide variety of products included. The items were packaged well, and the documentation is fair. I am sure the documentation will get better in time, so be prepared to do some web searching. GeeekPi has a video on the web with all the projects and code shown, and I highly recommend that you watch this. When you get good at the code, this package will really open up a whole new world to you. The Raspberry Pi Pico is the future! I am sure they will add other features and it will be exciting to learn the coding and see it directly in action. The technical support at GeeekPi was exceptional, and the Amazon support is always top-notch. Thanks to all that supported me.

Subtly one of those kits that you'll want after you get a good grip in certain aspects of the languages

The description says ‘for Raspberry Pi Beginners & Software Engineers’. This is neither for 'beginners' nor 'software engineers'. For beginners it does not teach you Python or MicroPython. And a real software engineer would not need something like this. They would go directly to the MicroPython documentation or to the Software Development Kit. It is mainly loading code, wiring up circuits and then watch them run. There is no detailed explanation of the code that a beginner would need. Here is an example from one of the programs that a beginner will not understand: tm.write([0b00111001, 0b00111111, 0b00111111, 0b00111000]). And most of the code for the individual sensors are just a few lines long that only show you that they output a digital high or digital low. The included book does not have clear diagrams for wiring up the circuits. They do have photos, but they are not good enough to help you wire them up. And the first two projects in the book have mistakes. They do have a YouTube video that shows how wire up the circuits and it does include close-ups so you can see where the wires go. It’s almost 3 hours long, but it does have time stamps in the description for each project. There is a link to it at the bottom of their wiki page for this product. Search for “wiki K-0586”. You do get a lot of sensors which does give the opportunity to learn a lot. But if you really want to learn this, you will have to search the internet for tutorials and videos on Python, MicroPython, on the Pi Pico itself and also tutorials on the specific sensors. I do like the Pico Breadboard Kit that comes with it. For information on it search “wiki EP-0140”. But that can be purchased as a separate item. I have bought a number of items from GeeekPi for my PI 4's and have been pleased with those purchases. It is just this specific purchase that has disappointed me.

The description includes verbiage such as "for Raspberry Pi beginners" and "enthusiasts to learn Python programming". This kit is neither. I bought this kit for learning Python. I've been building hardware since my first MC6800 kit almost 50 years ago, so I'm not afraid of hardware. I am disappointed that the documentation didn't include even the most basic assembly instruction or description of the development kit for real beginners (e.g. LED's, buttons, etc.). As far as learning Python, there's only downloading the experiment code, load it, and run it. No explanation of what it's doing, no comments in the code, no documentation, nothing. What documentation there is was poorly written and hard to understand what they were getting at. There were even places in the documentation where sections were obviously copy/pasted without editing that section for the current experiment. I have other complaints like labeling parts and code that flat out didn't work, but suffice it to say that this kit is not for beginners, and if you really want to play around, you better already be a Python expert.

I bought this as a Christmas present for a kid who’s really into tech, coding, and computers, and it’s been a brilliant introduction to several Raspberry Pi projects. The selection of components is good, nothing feels cheap, and it isn’t overwhelming for a beginner while still offering plenty to explore. A very useful and engaging kit overall.

Ist zwar made in China aber verdammt viele Komponenten zum experimentieren drin Handbuch nur in Englisch Leider funktionieren nicht alle programme da muss man selbst programmieren

Getting the product assembled was easy. Mostly worked as expected. Issue 1: The board has a speaker that makes a constant tone sometimes and manually has to be turned off by attaching ground to the sound pin. Very annoying that it does this and did not have any warning about it in the manual. Issue 2: the instruction manual has broken links and the instructions do not give you step by step instructions to get started. A lot of trouble-shooting and guessing or googling is required and possible damage to LEDs if external knowledge is not present. But googling found more than enough info to work through all the missing instructions in the book. Overall: the product is good. Assortment of devices is good. Just don’t rely completely on the manual for a beginner. Lots of fun.

Great little kit for starting programming and prototyping in Raspberry Pico ecosystem. But the breadboard kit has a major flaw. The buzzer circuit on the board is wired wrong. It's missing a resistor in the circuit. Easiest solution is to desolder the buzzer and use the half breadboard for any projects that need the buzzer. Or if you are feeling handy. Add the resistor into the circuit to correct. Other than that it's a great kit.
