Re: GBZ Issues

Its 1.27mm ribbon cable. I separated the wires as it was just hindering my soldering. They are tinned on here so they do have stranding. I use these as well 1 x Hook-up Wire Spool Set - 22AWG Solid Core - 6 x 25 ft. From adafruit they are much more solid. But harder to manipulate, left me with a cou...

Re: GBZ Issues

I thought I would check the pins on the underside as you suggested and I can see a bunch of them bent. Not sure how I've done that maybe while soldering. I doubt it will make a clear connection like that. I'll take it apart and see if I need a new one.

Re: GBZ Issues

Thanks guys. I have only twisted the data so far.
I will redo the wiring as suggested. They are about 8.5cms I cut off about 3.5cm. What kind of shielding would I use? And yeah the sd card is imaged I'm using the same one direct into the pi.

I have tested the continuity with my multimeter and all seems good. Any pointers on where I'm going wrong? Or something I'm missing. The soldering isn't great but I ca...

Re: [Pre-Order] Safe Shutdown Switch (BangGood Edition)

Hi,
Just noticed I ordered this one when I have an adafruit Powerboost is it compatible. If its not compatible can you advise of which Gearbest one is? :)

Thanks
