Issues with the BPPC2 and GND Plane

Hi Chucky -

The guy seems to have a reputation as a flake and yet you carried forward and spent money with him? And now you have a bad purchasing experience. Surprise?

What other outcome could have been expected? All the gnashing, videos, copies of email conversations, etc... is just a lot of drama.

This thread seems like a cry for attention on your part more than anything.

Feel free to flame me, but this is my knee-jerk opinion.

Oh good grief. The phase 5 guy has a reputation as fake5. That has been going on for quite some time now.

It's like buying a car from a used car salesman on a street corner with no license or retail premises who says "trust me" and then acting all surprised when it breaks down 10 miles down the road. And then warning others not to do the same? Duh. And then making a video?  And copying/pasting email exchanges? drama.

I am in no way defending fake5, but at the same time this whole episode is a bit silly.

Hi Chucky -

Thanks for the gracious reply. I can put my flameproof gear away. Drat.

If anything you have definitely removed any doubt as to the quality of the "flake5" product. They (he) can't even get a PCB manufactured. Good grief.

Shame about the bppc... that was an expensive investment.

Looking forward to seeing what other hardware projects you come up with. I have plans (evil plans) for the I/O ports on the Vampire 4.

Cheers!

NO.  That is what makes the whole thing such a farce.
