90 degree headers - fadeddata - 12-08-2023
On the Multi-IO is it possible for future runs to have 90 degree headers instead of the straight headers? I have an Intellijel 7u case and the Multi-IO cannot fit where I want it when I2C is plugged in. If the headers were 90 degree this would be alleviated.

This is nothing I will do for a regular run as it is on the way of the text etc.
I can always make specials if you comment it in the orders / on request and if it is possible.

I don’t think the request changes the documentation of the project at all. I’m talking about the I2C headers on the back of the Multi-IO module. The change is from straight to 90 degree. Like these

Totally understand that you might have several 100 of these boards already made and that there isn’t much that can be done now but on a second run the 90 degree header (with the pins facing in, there is plenty of room) would be ideal.

I don't have the i2c adapter in front of me but if that change causes the header or cable end to go beyond the panel edge it could cause problems, depending on what modules are next to it (or case edges, etc.).

I’ve already made the modification to mine. The pins can face in there is plenty of room.
