Screw Terminals

[alexromp]

I have the 1.3 version of the hardware. However I really like the accessibility of the screw terminals in the 1.4 version that extend beyond the case.

Would those be compatible with the 1.3 hardware (pin spacing) if I had them, and if so, where can I order those (Digikey, Sparkfun, etc?)?

Thanks!

The terminal screws are sourced from China and the part numbers are 2EDG5.08 8p. Someone else asked about this and found the equivalent digikey parts:

Note, however, the cutouts on the 1.3 enclosure are not high enough, so I suspect these parts won’t be able to pass through the enclosure (unless if you can cut the enclosure yourself, or leave the controller without enclosure).

Very cool. I appreciate the info. I was in the right area on DigiKey but it’s easy to get overwhelmed by the number of results on their site.

I should be able to modify the case with a coping saw if I’m gentle. =)

Thanks again!
