  1. JEFF LAWTON (verified owner)

    Great little device. It showed up in one week and was very easy to install after following set up instructions. We had an ID glitch that required replacement. The staff responded quickly and resolved the issue. Excellent, quick support response. If you are a geek, this seismograph is for you!!

    Great instrument !
    I use it to monitor earthquake activity on Mount Etna (Sicily, Italy). With students, we deployed a few of them in local schools (and we intend to install a few more this summer). The staff at Raspberry Shake is awesome, we recieved the devices quickly, the instruments are easy to understand and to use ! The installation is fast, the setup of the device as well. There is no issue with the Internet connection. Having the data online really helps sharing science with everyone ! I would recommend this for citizen science projects !
