What's this part called: lever close multi-pin things on cheap tester tools

@Robert What's the deal with that 24LC32A programmer board? Does is power by USB? I've been using a Dev Board pedal for years, but it's a bit cumbersome when I'm flashing a several chips at once.

Yep, USB-C.

Want to try one out? It's just a prototype but it does what it's supposed to do.

It'll work fine with a USB-A > USB-C cable, that's what I'm using on one of my PCs.

Cool I’ll send a message about getting it with my next order

Right. Well, I think I had a different, stupid approach, where the pin headers on that board I laid out wire connected out to the clamps and my poor brain couldn't brain. it was going to be pin headers on the PCB, then wired and then the clips would attached to F-M DuPont connectors.

Scale isn't 100% accurate, but this is the concept, but I'll adjust it when I actually get it in my hands

Haven't wired it yet, but this is looking to be the size of the board. The the case is looking to be ~170x170mm

Not glove tight but with a bit of shims…

Can shrink some of the access gaps (also didn't remove the glue stick residue)
