Really cool. I just ran into a situation where it would be handy to have a small Bluetooth device that plugs into USB-C. However soldering something like this seems a bit beyond me, is there a more turnkey solution?

The company that printed the PCB, PCBWay, also offers PCBAs. They're really not expensive, though you might need to order in batches of multiples of five.

  • JLCPCB also offers assembly and they're much, much cheaper, like an order of magnitude cheaper.

    • Wow thanks!!! I've been trying to find a cheap flex pcb supplier but the cheapest i found was $150 for 10. They are way cheaper making my project viable!

There's no makerspace nearby that could give you access to the tools and supplies to upgrade your skills?
