    A fine and cheap sonar for simple projects

    posted by bmagyar on 11/17/2012 Certified Owner

    Pros:
    Build quality is good. Works as advertised, however I wish the range was better. Price is unbeatable.
    Cons:
    I may need to tweak the code a bit, but using tutorials found in the Internet, the range isn't much better than 2-3 feet.
