Yes! That was just under 2 years ago. It's the same project.
DIY is great. The problem is that after I published that article, everyone on Hacker News went and bought-out all the USB-A magnetic breakways on Amazon. And they literally never re-stocked (I found out later it was EOL from the manufacture).
The reason I launched this crowdfunding campaign was to put these USB-A magnetic breakaway cables back on the market so people could build their own again (and to sell the whole kit, to lower the barrier of entry to non-techie journalists).
