    I found this item easy to make and very sensitive - it is not a VU meter. For best looking results as place the leds as I have done. Can upload a video if given the option Mike

    It took my 8-yr old daughter and I an hour to put together - the board is printed clearly enough for her to work out, with a tiny bit of internet seaching. Great fun, and excellent value for money.

    This kit came with sufficient documentation to build it easily. Instructions are in Chinese but all you really need are the schematic and parts list. D3, D7, D9 = red LEDs D2, D5, D8 = yellow LEDs D1, D4, D7, D10 = green LEDs (I had some fun figuring this out, go to Google translate: English to Mandarin, enter "red" and match up the characters displayed to the parts list, etc. etc.) The - (minus) side of the microphone is connected to the case. C2 charges through R3 and is discharged when any sound picked up by the microphone is amplified by Q1, causing the transistor to conduct and dropping voltage on the clock (pin 14) of U1, pulsing the counter. Nice visual effect. Worked immediately. No issues.

    A perfect little construction kit - perfect for practice or as a small electronic gadget. The circuit works fantastically - as a noise detector or as a wheel of fortune (or both). My kids love it. The layout is meant for 4.5V operation voltage so that the green LEDs do not seem very bright with two batteries in the supplied holder. This can be easily adapted if necessary but. The price-performance ratio in this kit is unbeatable!

    Simple circuit, useful to learn how to weld and know the CD4017 counter.

    Bought this after reading the other reviews as they say at least that it is useful for soldering practice and I wanted that. Took me a couple of hours as I hadn't soldered anything in 30 years, Worked first go aft'er I finished it! Well impressed. It doesn't do much but flash when you talk. From the colours of the LED's I thought it might be a sound level meter VU meter style displat, but the lights just cyle with any sound, faster with louder sounds, but its still fun.One thing I wasn't so impressed withwas that the electret microphone had no pins or wires attatched so I had to put pins onto the base, but got it done eventually . My advice to anyone making it is to make sure the microphone pins got through the holes before final soldering on.or you'll be adjusting a few times like me. Overall very good though.

    This would be a great kit for someone to build to get more experience with soldering and working with electronic parts. The circuitboard that comes with this purchase is high quality and well designed. The LEDs that come with the kit are standard and it is possible to replace them with high brightness types that you can purchase here on this site (any color will work). The kit can be put together quickly, just be careful with inserting the LEDs, capacitors, and microphone, they are direction dependant.

    Great kit to teach kids soldering and electronics principles. I will definitely recommend. Good quality of components and board.
