Review: Usable, but pls read for important comsiderations - 5 stars because all 5 of these were cheap, not irretrievably bad, and serve my purpose. HOWEVER: You need to know: 1. Carefully inspect the back. On mine, I found several questionable solder joints to the two displays. It seems the SMDs (7219,C1,R1&D1) were machined reflowed (perfectly) but the two displays were then hand-soldered, some crookedly and not terribly carefully. Those that were crooked I desoldered and resoldered flush, and touched up all the other display solder joints. 2. Remove diode D1, and short its pads with a wire. It serves only to protect against reverse polarity. Fine, except it’s inline to the daisychain VCC out, so will drop 5v too much to any daisychained displays. 3. I added a 10uf electrolytic across VCC & GND, as close as possible to the input & 7219. It, along with C1, helps decouple 5V load spikes as the LEDs change state. The pos leg of my cap serves to short the D1 pads. See the pic. I used a 50V 10uf ‘cause that’s what I had, but a 25V one would be even smaller. 4. The 7219 chips on all 5 units were *completely* unmarked. My guess would be that these are, at best, clandestine “overnight overruns” of legit runs of Maxim/AnalogDevices. Or, of course, total clones. The price of legit MAX7219 SMDs in quantity is multiples of what we’re paying for these entire modules. Nevertheless, the chips appear to work fine albeit quite warm at full load (8 digits on at intensity 15). 5. Finally, the overall design of the board leaves something to be desired. There’s no way to abut these modules to create a seamless 16, 24, etc digit display. Enjoy.
Review: Poor quality, received non-working units - Do not buy - I received non-working displays and spent more time figuring it out than I saved by buying cheaply from this seller. Very disappointed.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ They work... if they aren't DOA and you remove the diode
*by N***L on September 9, 2020*

I ordered 10 of these to use as part of building a physical radio stack for a Cessna 172 in Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020 using MobiFlight and an Arduino. Pros: * They are cheap * They ship fast * They work with MobiFlight right out of the gate Cons: * One of the 10 boards I received didn't work properly * Each board has a diode on it to guard against +5V/GND being swapped, but this diode cuts the voltage so much you can't daisy chain beyond two boards and in my case also prevented them from working when connected to an Arduino via a breadboard. If you plan on using these I recommend removing the diode and replacing it with a small piece of wire. It takes no time at all to do and makes these actually usable in a daisy chain situation: I have six connected in series with the diode removed and they work great. Also plug each display directly into +5V/GND and only daisy chain the three control wires. I strongly recommend methodically testing each board upon arrival as well to save yourself a TON of heartache trying to figure out why things aren't working. Solder the connectors on all the boards and then: 1. Test every board in isolation to ensure it displays properly. Mark the "in" end of each board as OK. 2. Take a board with a known good "in" and use it as the second board in a daisy chain. Test every board as the first board and verify both boards light up correctly. If this works then mark the "out" of each board as OK. In my case I had one board that didn't work properly for "out", and regardless of where it was in chain it would cause havoc with the other boards.
