The Pendant discussion

I’m not sure about paying double, but when it came time to replace a faulty SKR board, I had the choice between using another SKR with a (wired) touch screen, or going wireless with a Jackpot and using a networked phone or tablet.

It was a pretty easy decision, I went with the wired choice. Not because I don’t understand networks or technology (my education and employment for the last two decades was in networks and technology). Rather I appreciated the reliability and simplicity of the touch screen, and didn’t want to have to regularly troubleshoot or fiddle with network or connection issues.

So IF I ever went the Jackpot route, I would probably look for a wired controller option, rather than going completely wireless.

But as someone else said, I’m a sample size of one, so maybe I’m a bit of an outlier…
