What's with the male USB type-A connector at the board edge? Are users actually supposed to plug the board straight into their computers? Seems like a recipe to break connectors, the board is a strong lever with that length.
If that's not the idea, the more correct way would be to use one of the USB connectors meant to be placed on cabled devices like B, mini-B or micro-USB.
- theon144 10y agoYeah, it is quite odd. Fortunately, you can still plug it in with one of those USB extension cords.
