But those headers do look like the best idea so far for SIP strips. m On Sat, Feb 27, 2021 at 8:13 PM Jeffrey Birt <[email protected]> wrote: > Or you can just use the 'Arduino' headers which are 1/6 the cost, don't > have the shoulder, don't require a special PCB design, etc. etc. > > Not to beat a dead horse but why try to reinvent the wheel? > > Jeff Birt > > -----Original Message----- > From: M100 <[email protected]> On Behalf Of Brian K.
