Hello Adafruit Support team and Adafruit community members,
I purchased the Pimorino Skywriter HAT , but was unable to get it to detect gestures or taps on a Rasberry Pi 2 model B.
The instructions present on the following github page were used
https://github.com/pimoroni/skywriter-hat
When I run test.py, errors are not generated.
A i2cdetect test did not return any errors
The address of 0x42 was returned as expected.
To confirm that the issue was not related to a Raspian OS version , I performed fresh installs of both Bullsey and Buster.
It appears that the Skywriter HAT that I received might have been defective.
Does anyone have any tips or suggestions?
Thanks.

Hello mikeysklar,
Would it be possible to request a return? I purchased the product from Adaduit. Originally I was going to use it to control some lights, but it seems that using a set of tactile buttons might be a optimal solution.
Thanks.

Sure we can start the return process if this was purchased in the last 30-days. What was the date of purchase?
