What is your favorite road test on element14?

What is your favorite road test on element14? Either one you did or one someone else did.

Or what road test would you most like to see on this forum?

You can find all the road test blogs here:

(+) RoadTest Reviews - element14 Community

This link shows how many views and likes each review received. It can be a bit misleading if the review blog is a summary of a series of other blogs that each had separate views and likes. 

One of my motives for asking this question is to discover if I missed any great road tests, so be sure to include a link.

    Care to share a link to this? I'm currently trying to get LabView to talk to my DMM and the initial learning curve to get into the software is daunting.

    I was looking for a link to my LabView roadtest only to find it was in fact a Design Challenge.  I spent a LOT of time on that one, really testing out the scope and potential of the software.  First prize was, unfortunately, a year’s subscription to the LabView top tier software but with a renewal price of nearly £4k it wasn’t something I could use.  Design Challenges really produce some great output, arguably more indicative of capability than some of the Roadtests.

    Indeed.  By the way, the first glimpse I had of the material you were putting together for the Arduino Giga R1 review was a YouTube notification.

    I did both a series of blogs and summarized them in a road test.

    Maybe the question should've been "What is your most useful road test" as in, which road test did you gain most knowledge or most benefit from. A favourite would be one that you actually did.

    For example, I've found the Nordic Power Profiler Kit 2 review to be very useful.

     dougw  I was going to nominate your Arduino Giga R1 road test but then I couldn't fully remember if it was a road test because I remember consuming the material in bite size chunks.  I seem to recall a series of blogs dedicated to specific facets of the product... but now that I see it is a road test proper I officially nominate it.  Thumbsup

    Right. I maybe applied for that one but did not get it or maybe I did not cause I was doing another road test. 

    After Randall is gone, the road test is not that exiting thing that much.

    Having reviewed many road tests, I would have to say that most have their own specific epiphany result.

    So I can't say I have a favorite.

    Design Challenges are always memorable, however my favs are my first one (Smarter Life PSoC4) (where I won a trip to Germany) and Safe and Sound which was a Project-of-the-Year. (prize was a DJI Phantom 4 drone)
