Hello

I want to intall a 6 relay HAT on top of the strompi 3 large battery and want to secure this HAT with standoffs.

The problem is that there are 2 holes missing in the battery PCB so that i can install only 2 standoffs instead of 4 to secure the relay HAT.

     The charge LED should be moved away as they are located in the zone for a hole for standoff

     For the second hole it is just a mater of drilling it in the battery pcb as there is no pcb track in this zone

Also it seems risky to use metallic standoff due to proximity of via or pins from headers in the strompi3 PCB.

Could you envisage to update the design of the strompi 3 PCB and battery PCB to increase the nogo zone arround the fixing holes for the standoffs.

Also the Battery connector header is too close to the only hole for the standoff and clashes with the standoff inducing mechanical loads on the connector. The battery connector should be shifted by 1mm to avoid that. Idem for the header on the strompi3 side.

 

best regards

Hello Domv31,

thanks for the comment, we'll take a look at it and see if and how we can optimize it.
