This is a very neat and tidy design Gene. Shame about the issues - good luck with developing a solution.

Kind regards

Oh man, I sympathise. Getting a PCB back from the manufacturers after 3 weeks only to find the library footprint was wrong and holes are too small, or finding you’ve misread the datasheet and sized pads for a 50nH inductor instead of 50uH inductor. Very frustrating. I’m keeping my fingers crossed that I’ve learnt my lesson but somehow....

Hi Gene,

Sorry to hear that, and it's super-frustrating I can imagine, given that you're so close.

Still, at least you've got code, managed to prove out your enclosure panel tech, and for want of another Arduino, the project is likely to work! Great idea for such a project too.
