![]() The black plastic pre-moulds were roughly £1 + post and easy to solder, and the original grey plugs are $5 + post and you need to do each pin separately with a special tool which takes ages and costs more. The supplier simply said well that's the way they leave the machine sometimes, they are cheap and you can easily stretch/bend them (dick head!). Not ideal but again it does not change the way they work. I have tried my best to either straighten the plastic, make some cuts in the plastic, straighten some pins and/or pull out some pins. ![]() Some were slightly twisted and some of the pins slightly twisted. One other slight dilemma but does not in any way effect the operation of the devices is the pre-moulded plastic 14 pin connectors have had bad quality control. Turned out I had to plugin then unplug the USB which would to send the signal to cancel the USB, thus setting the bluetooth to master, weird, anyway luckily I had simply missed 1 solder connection off each circuit, BASTARD!!!!, took them all apart, soldered it, they all work fine! woohoo! finally happy as I have been losing my mind the past week I had no idea this was a thing to consider until now. I took the 11 out for testing before completing any more and found none of them worked properlyīasically the bluetooth was not registering itself automatically, these things have automatic master and slave settings, master was needed but slave was defaulting. So 11 of the new batch were 'finished' last week, and another 10 are 90% complete.
