I ordered the HMC5883L triaxis magnetometer break out. It works well. Just a couple of things:-
the bldr instructable video shows a different make of break out.
the example software needs amending as there needs to include #include<Adafruit_Sensor.h> and #include<Adafruit_BMP085.h>.
When testing I found that there is a permanent field in one axis which is possibly due to the 4pin link supplied. The breakout should be connected to the Arduino by a length of non-magnetic ribbon cable.
These are small problems but some amendments to the docs would make things easier for others.
Thanks for the service.
The other two items have not being used yet. One product at a time.
