Getting started with Jackpot on LR3

Success!

I unscrewed the Jackpot board from the base, lifted it up in the air, wrapped the wires on top … around underneath it, without even unplugging them, molded and shaped them a bit, and then pressed the board back down into position and screwed it down. This did mean that I had a pretty significant trunk of wires exiting at the bottom of the board — while existing holes (in the shape of the V1E logo) are up high, and this caused a binding of wires between the lid and the board that prevented the lid from being slid on completely.

In my various remixes for the SKR cases, I notched the bottom of the lid so that it could be removed without threading wires through holes, and just now I had to manually make cuts in this lid to create a notch at the bottom, so that trunk of wires could exit without binding between the Jackpot and the lid.

I will probably remix the case to add that notch for any users who haven’t printed it yet, but would like to.

Finally, the result of this was that I was able to have full strength Wi-Fi connectivity bars instead of only one bar. Very good.
