I wanted to check if the RSSI LED would interfere with XSC radios. Pin 6 on these radios isn't used for RSSI and if there's an LED connected to it the radio goes into what Digi calls "pitch mode" and won't work. Checked the schematic and it is the wrong one (I think it's for the Arduino/Digi shield) so I had to buy the board and find out. BTW, the answer is "Yup", you gotta remove the RSSI LED in order to use this board with XSC radios. Aside from that, the board is good as gold, and half the price of equivalents at places like SparkFun.
This is just one of the many things that I have bought here, and I am still amazed at how good the quality has been so far.
It looks well designed. This adapter worked as advertised. I have used it several times and have had no problems using it. The header strips are a tight fit which makes for a good connection but is a bit of a challenge when removing XBee's from them. sainsmart seems to have a great arduino lineup, would definitely choose them again.
