Small plastic project enclosure - does a Powered Arduino fit

Post by jackiebrownia »

Hi,

I purchased a Small Plastic Project enclosure (https://www.adafruit.com/product/903) based on the promise that I could fit an Arduino Uno in it. While the Uno fits, it seems impossible to connect power to it, as the addition of a 5.5mm/2.1mm plug from a battery clip exceeds the dimension of the box. Is there a solution, e.g., a plug that takes a 90 degree turn? (The bigger box is obviously a solution . . . :))

Thanks, Jackie

You can connect power through ground and the Vin pin rather than the power jack
