Works Great!
about 2 years ago by Member #695307 verified purchaser
These breakout boards were a great help in making my custom keyboard. I didn’t end up using the leds, but I
popped a diode on, soldered them together and it’s working great so far. They are handy little boards.
Works perfectly

Using them for a project emulating old console buttons on military-style machines. Work beautifully!
Works wonderfully

Easy to solder as key-switch snaps into place…no adhesive required. I recommend soldering the headers first
though.
