It’s always like Christmas every time a package from Mouser arrives. Now we have lots of Bourns pots in stock, hopefully enough to last through Christmas.

Then the FPC cables just arrived straight from the manufacturer! This gets me so excited.

That 19-pin jack is still my favorite! Now we got some PCB mount variants. The Elves are tired crimping and soldering lots of small wires.

Naked NUs! It’s just like the original Neos with an upgraded preamplifier plus Permalloy shields. There’s lesser pull from the magnets too. The Neodymium magnets are down to 3.5mm from 4.7mm.
