I just finished building a PPCB Protoboard and everything seems to be working as expected, which is great!
While testing I noticed that my female ended jumper wires don't grip the pin headers at all - they are basically just sitting on them and slightest touch will knock them off. Have other people had this same issue? Is there a different brand or connector type that fits the pin headers better? Surely the connections are not intended to be this delicate?
EDIT: Embarrassed to say that I just wasn't pushing the connectors down firmly enough to latch. They work great.
I sure feel stupid...Carry on folks, nothing to see here...
