Excellent Bluetooth radio! – JY-MCU Arduino Bluetooth Wireless Serial Port Module Reviews

posted by Prepperandflash on 02/02/2012 Certified Owner

Involvement:General (knows how to use it) - Ownership:more than 1 month

Pros:
This an excellent product!
--It's really cheap (3 to 4 times cheaper) if you compare it to other bluetooth radios sold on other sites
--It comes with free shipping
--already has the male pins attached, there is no need to solder or make a board for it.
--you can plug it directly into your breadboard
Cons:
NONE whatsoever.
Other:
I still need to figure out to change the Bluetooth name.
There are a lot of AT commands out there, and some people already started hacking the firmware.
Bottomline:
It's a excellent product if you want to take your electronics project to the next level. It's really easy to use with Arduino.
I use my Android phone with the app 'Bluescripts' to control my arduino wirelessly.
