Welcome to the future of GPS technology with the SparkFun ZED-F9R GPS pHAT. This isn't just any GPS board; it's a high-precision, sensor fusion marvel that boasts top-tier configuration options and leverages u-blox's cutting-edge Automotive Dead Reckoning (ADR) technology.

Stellar Accuracy and Performance

Equipped with the ZED-F9R module, this pHAT is a powerhouse. Featuring an 184-channel u-blox F9 engine GNSS receiver, it can tap into GPS, GLONASS, Galileo, and BeiDou constellations, delivering jaw-dropping accuracy of approximately 0.01 meters! This precision is achievable through RTK navigation when paired with a correction source. Keep in mind, the ZED-F9R functions solely as a rover, necessitating a connection to a base station. It supports simultaneous reception from four GNSS systems, and its fusion of GNSS and 3D sensor data ensures real-time positioning at up to 30Hz.

Unwavering Performance in Challenging Environments

Urban jungles and dense areas are no match for the ZED-F9R. This module excels where others falter, maintaining continuous, accurate positioning even under poor signal conditions or complete signal loss—think short tunnels and parking garages. It's the go-to solution for autonomous robotic applications demanding pinpoint accuracy in tough settings.

Easy Integration and Versatile Compatibility

Integrating the ZED-F9R with your setup is a breeze. It uses the Raspberry Pi's serial UART for communication and comes with pre-soldered headers—no soldering needed! Stack it onto a Raspberry Pi, NVIDIA Jetson Nano, Google Coral, or any 2x20 form factor single-board computer effortlessly. Plus, a few 0.1"-spaced pins and a Qwiic connector are broken out for those needing additional connections.

Comprehensive Configuration Options

The ZED-F9R is configurable through the feature-rich, albeit dense, u-center software. Adjust baud rates, update rates, set up geofencing, spoofing detection, and more. Tinker to your heart's content and tailor the module to your specific needs.

Rapid Start with Onboard Battery

Say goodbye to long wait times. The ZED-F9R includes an onboard rechargeable battery powering the RTC, slashing the time-to-first fix from ~24 seconds (cold start) to a mere ~2 seconds (hot start). It maintains RTC and GNSS orbit data even when not connected to power, keeping you ready to go at a moment's notice.

The SparkFun ZED-F9R GPS pHAT is also equipped with an on-board rechargeable battery that provides power to the RTC on the ZED-F9R. This reduces the time-to-first fix from a cold start (~24s) to a hot start (~2s). The battery will maintain RTC and GNSS orbit data without being connected to power for plenty of time.

This product requires an antenna: Any GNSS receiver will be fine, this board uses a U.FL antenna connector but you can also use an adaptor if needed

Very Powerful Frother!!
Color: White
I’ve been using a frother daily for my drinks, and this one really impressed me with its power for such a compact size. It blends heavier powders into smooth, clump-free mixtures in seconds. I’m a big fan of the build—the metal whisk gives it a solid feel, and it comes with a stand to keep it neat on the counter instead of being shoved in a drawer. Cleaning is a breeze, just a quick rinse, and the rechargeable battery lasts much longer than I anticipated between charges. Just a little tip: start in a taller cup and don’t fill it all the way to the top, as this thing can create a serious vortex if you’re not careful. Overall, it’s been a super handy little tool, and I’m so glad I bought it.

I love it!
Color: Black, Size: Rechargeable
This thing works great! It holds a charge for a long time. I love that it has different attachments. I use it mainly for mixing powder into my drinks. It is very powerful. The speed is adjustable too. It feels good to hold too. It lights up when you squeeze the trigger and when it starts losing charge, the light bar gets shorter. I highly recommend it.

Perfect all-around frother, stand keeps it nice and neat on the counter within easy reach.
Color: Black, Size: Rechargeable
Rechargeable, lightweight, variable speeds and optional whisks all make this the perfect item for your kitchen. You can quickly froth milk for your coffees, whip a small batch of whip cream, and even make mug cakes with the hook attachment. The price is very compatible with the competitors, but the ease of use makes this a top choice. The variable speeds makes it much better to control than the push button ones. When you let go of the pressure switch it turns off, no need for a dedicated on-off switch. Having the pressure switch on the top makes it extremely easy to use! It fits very comfortably in the hand and with the metal stand, looks quite nice on the counter, ready to use at any time. I highly recommend this InstaWhisk!

Great product from a great company
Color: Black, Size: Rechargeable
This product works very well. There are several other whips to use also. I absolutely love the cream it makes and that is important so I can enjoy my morning coffee. I used this whisk for quite a while then all of a sudden it stopped working. I wrote to the company to explain. A few days later they sent me a beans new whisk. GREAT item and great company to work with.

Great Frother - almost too powerful
Color: Black, Size: Rechargeable
I’ve been using the Tyohur InstaWhisk milk frother for a while now, and overall I really like it—but I wouldn’t quite give it 5 stars, and honestly it’s because it might be a little too powerful for its own good. First, the positives: this frother does an amazing job. The single-button control is super easy to use, and I love that you can adjust the speed just by how much pressure you apply. It feels very intuitive, and you can really dial in the exact texture you want. Whether I’m making a latte or mixing something thicker like a protein drink, it handles everything smoothly. The performance is seriously impressive. On the lower speeds, it creates nice, silky foam, and when you turn it up, it’s incredibly fast—like café-quality foam in seconds. High-speed frothers like this are designed to create rich foam very quickly, and this one definitely delivers on that promise That said, the power is also what knocks it down a star for me. If you’re not careful (especially when using higher speeds), it can splash pretty easily. The product description says it’s designed to prevent mess with stable low-RPM operation, and that’s true if you stay on the lower settings—but once you ramp it up, you really need to keep the whisk fully submerged or start slow, or it can send milk flying out of the container
