It's like the best bang for your penny deal I can think of, literally.

80% of my parts coming Sunday yay!

What exactly are we looking at?

Don't contact me about obtaining my board files (as you will not get them). If my Boards or PCB Kits are sold out, they will be restocked as soon as I can get them and there is demand for them. You can join the mailing list on my Website to be notified when they are available.

Ok I see it now but what will this solve? This is another thread started without any information to what was talked about prior to this vague posting.

I disagree - this is literally the best bang for your penny:

:lol:

The Micro to A adapters are a good find and cheap, too. Definitely worth having in your parts bin.

They are shims just in case I need to connect anything else or deviate from the guide at all. Keyboard for setting it up, etc. I got 5 for a dollar which seems like a good deal and backup plan to me.

What other thread?

What I think Helder is getting at is your thread. It is yet another thread like so many on here, that doesn’t give any information about what the post is actually about, in the title or first post.
Something like
“Hey guys I found these cheap little usb a to micro adaptors I’m using in bla bla bla application thought it may help someone else ” or something else of the like. I could be wrong I don’t want to talk for Helder, but there is a lot of posts on here with titles such as “HELP” then the poster gives absolutely no information. Basically be less vague.
As it is if someone actually wanted a cheap usb type a to micro usb adaptor and was looking through the forum could they find it in your title ?

This is exactly what I meant, you said Plan B and we get here and see you found some item which the image makes it impossible to know what it is and you have no information about this item or what plan B is. This leaves the common user browsing the forums scratching their heads thinking what the hell is this topic about.

Just put some info about what the thread is about so we know as we are not mind readers.
