Title: Breakout's/DPDT Wiring Boards and Soldering
Post by: K3yPr0gg3r on April 28, 2016, 07:27:10 PM
Hi,

I keep on forgetting to ask this question. In build documents/other pics I see, there are contradictory images shown. Some show the board soldered to the 3PDT/DPDT, some don't. So which is it?

Thank you!!!

Not following you.. you got a build doc as an example?

Hi Cody,

In the first DPDT pic, (Guitar PCB), the lugs don't look soldered, but I've seen pics with soldered lugs for Breakout Boards/DPDT boards. I just don't want to get everything in the enclosure, and find out I had to solder the lugs for the true bypass board. I have a few breakouts, and I've tryed to fit them onto a 3PDT. They don't seem to fit, or maybe I'm just being too gentle... Hope this helps, and thanks for any clarification!

Yes definitely solder them in.  If it doesn't fit, it might be that the board was designed for switches with PCB terminals instead of solder lugs?
