Improvements: Instructions for 1. Videos to watch with pictures so we know that we are using it correctly and an active area on github with searchable issues and answers
DO NOT BUY

Very poor instructions come with the product you have to hunt and search the internet to find how to use the thing and then following the steps it doesnt work or respond.
