Power jack does not fit
« on: December 03, 2013, 10:51:24 am »
Got my first ETD from the last coop almost finished.  However the power connector studs do not fit thru the holes on the board.  I have not seen anyone else mention this.  I have slowly been shaving down the posts to make them smaller, but still have more to do.  This is my 3rd ETD and the two I built last year never had this problem.  Has anyone else seen this occur, I have not seen it mentioned on the forum?

I mentioned it in last years etd coop. I had to snip the leads on all of mine in order to get them to fit through the holes. Just solder it good and you will be fine

That what I did a couple years ago.
