I received mine from Gigaparts and within a week, the little power slide switch on the top fell off the (inaccessible) circuit board. Sue from Gigaparts quickly arranged a replacement, but to their credit, they checked the 1 in stock and it had the same issue. RFinder came up with a more robust switch and now I have it back in service. CONS: if you unplug it from USB, it causes unit to reboot even if fully charged battery (no battery indicator either). No external sma jack - Zumspot has one and is cheaper. Time/date only displayed in European format. Usual quirky Pi-Star issue changing/adding wi-fi (solved by powering unit down) PRO: nice to have IP address displayed. Also nice to have RF TX/RX frequencies displayed.

[@albing1397]

Correction: There is a battery indication on the backside. Numbers indicating 25, 50, 75,100
