Build the Satellite1 Together
Commenting on the Core Board And Satellite1 module together - I did not use them apart. I found the integration into Home Assistant to be very straightforward while using the instructions on the web site under support. Excited to put this to full use.
Great product, I'm satisfied
Once I set it to Aggressive for finished speaking detection, this has worked very well even with a TV on in the same room. I'm looking forward to permanent mounting on my ceiling and getting more if it works well.
Surrounding Noise is Not canceled. I have to mute the Radio / before talking to the Satellit
The cable fitment in the in the USB port is a teensy bit less than positive but seems to do the trick. When I moved it from one location to another it came loose and I thought something was wrong with the satellite 1 as it did not power on. Realized it had unplugged itself a wee bit. Just be cognizant this is possible when handling the adapter and make sure its snugged up tight.
