Hi there,
I'm following this tutorial https://learn.adafruit.com/infinity-mir ... -baby-glow
Using a Adafruit ItsyBitsy nRF52840 Express - Bluetooth LE with an Adafruit LiIon/LiPoly Backpack Add-On for Pro Trinket/ItsyBitsy[/b] and a Breadboard-friendly SPDT Slide Switch[/b].
I've triple checked that I followed the instructions for soldering on the Slide Switch and I just can't seem to make it cut off battery power to save my life. I've flipped it around and tried both ways of installing it.
Any tips for trouble shooting this before I buy another switch?
Thanks y'all!

Did you cut the trace on the backpack board between the switch connections? See https://learn.adafruit.com/adafruit-pro ... ch-1942369.

Hey Dave,
That totally worked, thank you!
I wasn't sure what that meant when I was reading the tutorial. Got it all figured out now.
Thanks again
