Why microusb breakout board, when it's can be type c breakout board for the same price?

[@makeit4less]

That's an excellent point! I guess it's up to whoever is building it

[@afaqahmed43]

im doing this next year, my partner lives a long ass way away so thisll be great

[@makeit4less]

That's awesome to hear!

Ahh, I wish I didn't have to wait twoo weeks for the parts. I wanted to do a blinking heart, but the Soldering Iron decided not to work. I have to rush to get a new one and start my work before it's too late.
I very much like this project, and thanks for everything so far :). I'm looking forward to see more like this.
P.D. uploaded a pic too ;)

I wish I had gotten the video out earlier so there was more time for people to get the parts but life for in the way 😝 I'm glad you liked the video and thanks for sending an image!

[@almaztech]

​@makeit4less It's all good, I understand. No worries:). Thanks anyway for posting, I may do it next year. And, you're welcome for the picture! I hope your partner enjoys it

This is awesome! First time I saw the original product in an ad, I though it would be pretty easy to make, but never got round to it. So thanks for doing the work for the rest of us! And happy valentines day to all of ya :)

[@makeit4less]

Obviously there's a lot more work involved to make this into a real product but I was surprised how easy the basic set up! I'm glad you like the video

[@me.ko.i1279]
