## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    No Magnetic Base - Good Otherwise
  

*by G***E on Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on 8 April 2018*

As noted by other buyers; this DOES NOT have a magnetic base, despite the description saying otherwise.If you need that feature, look elsewhere.Otherwise, it works well with my Debian SBC with no configuration whatsoever - just plug and play.One important thing to note; when you first plug this in, don't be surprised if it produces an empty NMEA stream for a while (e.g. 15 minutes); it will be downloading almanac and ephemeris data from the satellites. Subsequent fixes are much faster.You can monitor the NMEA output in Linux with 'cat /dev/ttyACM0'. Ideally though you'd install something like 'gpsd' to interpret the NMEA data for you and return coordinates, altitude, speed, etc.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Plug and play with RPi
  

*by J***T on Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on 28 December 2019*

Plug and play with my RPi 4 providing accurate clock time

### ⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Works as expected but ignore any comment regards magnetic base as it's plastic
  

*by A***W on Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on 1 October 2017*

Works as expected.Why 3 stars?Description says it has a magnetic base, it neither has a magnetic base nor is it metal. It is plastic that looks metal.
