Also no mentioning of the power connector? I have too little experience with USB-C, but the micro USB connector used on early Raspberry Pi's is just asking for trouble. That might be (barely) good enough for charging, but a computing device w/o battery-backup won't take lightly the power interruptions when jiggling the cable a little. I finally got around to replace it with an old-fashioned (time tested!) barrel connector. Easy way to improve the robustness significantly.
- bemusedthrow75 3y agoAs with my DSLRs/mirrorless cameras (particularly the ones that use the wretched USB mini) when tethering I have ended up with a right-angle adapter cable secured with a cable tie (or the super-strong Tethertools Jerkstopper), and a USB micro cord into that. USB micro is designed to snap at the connector, not the board. And the connectors will indeed snap.
