Re: [Paparazzi-devel] Molex PicoBlade: pre-crimped wires or DIY?

[gtoonstra]

I bought 10 pckt of double crimped of 150 and 300mm types at element14 (3each 
type). Digikey doesnt seem to sell them. I also bought several different 
housings (2/3/4/5/6/7). For spi keep wire length less than 100mm by cutting out 
a bit. By cutting in the middle and soldering to other things where required 
you save up some.

Rgds,

Gerard
