  1. Humble Pi

    Posted by Unknown on 14th Jan 2013

    Arrived promptly and intact and lived up to what it claimed.

  2. Exactly what I was looking for

    Posted by Phil Atkin on 13th Jan 2013

    I'm hand-building a small set of PIANAs (http://raspberrypisynthesizer.blogspot.co.uk) and the Humble Pi was exactly what I needed, and the price is insane. Thanks guys!

  3. Perfect

    Good quality
    Fits perfectly

  4. good board

    Posted by nw on 9th Oct 2012

    this is a good board - professionally produced and finsihed. It has a power and ground rail and all the holes are plated thru. The RPi GPIO pins break out to a a double row of PTH which can take a break out header (the GPIO numbers on silkscreen don't align to RPi programming numbers). There are two rows of pads x3 holes connected together which make it very easy to hook up lEDs, switches, temp sensors etc. There are also some pads which are designed to take a voltage regulator.

    I could wish CISECO show a pad layout/artwork for this board to explain the design intended for the Vreg and also a translation for the GPIO I/O numbers to the numbers used in RPi Python programming.

  5. Brilliant

    Used this to make a custom arduino pi add on board. Now I have a raspduino! Espicially like the plastic screw to support the opposite side of the board.

  6. Does exactly as it says in the description

    Posted by Unknown on 14th Sep 2012

    With a case from ModMyPi
    I built a DS1307 RTC on the board. It fits inside the case and there's plenty of space for other 'extras' as and when needed.

  7. HumblePi

    Posted by David on 13th Sep 2012

    It is a cheap but well made board.
    The power connector placing means the mounting hole by it is unusable.
    It came with a nylon screw and nut, why, what for? If the screw was 3mm longer and there was another nut it could be fastened on as a pillar to stop the board shorting on the metal can by the USB connector. As it is it can't be fastened in place.

  8. Great product

    Posted by Unknown on 21st Aug 2012

    Exactly what i was after and price was right. Cheers

  9. The best proto board!

    Convenient layout, holes for screws.
