Handy Dandy USB Stuff
I'm using this on my Raspberry Pi Zero 2 W so I can get some USB support to my in-dash car audio unit. I'm testing out two of them and so far they're great. We'll see how they all do once summer hits and under dash temperatures reach "don't touch that" levels.These come with plastic stand-off pieces so I swapped them out for brass/copper/metal just in case the heat makes them weeble wobble.(Edit) I've noticed that if you choose to try to also use the Micro USB port on the Zero 2 W it 100% disables the USB hat (bottom?). I've been trying to get my RPi Zero 2 W to boot from USB and after a few hours, I've learned that for some reason, when plugging anything into the micro USB port, it zeros out all the useful full sized USB ports on this board. "Back to the drawing board for me".Would recommend.

Easy install
Works as advertised. Installation instructions are in the product description. Very easy.

Great. Works with Pisugar battery!
Works great. I have a the Raspberry Pi Zero battery from Pisugar, which also uses pogo pins, and I was trying to figure out how to use both that and this hub. Turns out, you can stack the battery right underneath the hub! The solder joints underneath the pogo pins on this hub work just like the little receptor circles underneath the pi (and are in the same place).Only thing I dislike is that you can't use any of the usb ports on the pi, or else the usb ports on this hub won't work.

I was wrong. The product works well!
I am editing my old review because I was wrong. You have to make sure the Pi Zero is NOT in OTG mode for this hat to work. If you have it set to OTG the Pi Zero acts like a slave USB hub and the hat does not work. The Pi Zero must be in the master USB hub mode for the hat to work correctly. I discovered this the hard way.=== Old Review ==I recently received this hat and installed it on a Pi Zero W. Long story short, the USB ports on the hat didn’t work. Perplexed, I tried two other Pi Zero 1.3 but the USB ports still didn’t work. It’s installed correctly so that’s not the problem; power applied through the hat’s micro-USB port. Randomly I discovered the ports work if I plug anything into the USB OTG port; they don’t work if I plug them into the power OTG port. When I mean anything works I really mean anything: even plugging in a simple OTG to USB-A adapter (with no device) makes the USB ports on the hat work. I’m really confused.... so far the product sucks.

Worked great for a RetroPie build
I put this on a Pi Zero 2 W I was using for RetroPie build to allow for multiple controller connections. Worked great -- plug n' play.

I bought for my v1.2 Zero board
This USB circuit board, the seller did not write whether it can be used on the raspberry pi zero v1.2 version. Unfortunately, my Raspberry Pi zero is v1.2. So I bought one and tested it (I have two The result of zero is not applicable, because the two contacts of the power supply are almost a bit, but I think if you buy it, you can get it and break the two strip contacts to contact the power contact of zero. Successfully used on the zero of v1.2. Even if it is written on the back of this board, it can only be used with W and v1.3. If you are the zero of your v1.2, you can also try my method. Buy another board for my other v1.2 zero.
