Cautionary Note:Cautionary Note:
Cautionary Note: The PCB contains delicate electronic parts that can be damaged by static electricity. When
handling it, take precautions to minimize the risk of generating a static charge lest you damage the board. So, no
scuffing your feet on the rug, rubbing a balloon on your shirt, or other shenanigans. If you have an electronics
grounding strap made for this purpose (the kind that drains thru a resistor, not a bare copper wire bonded to the
cold water pipe), wear it.
