[sdiy] Power Connector Sizes

[Rob Spencer]

Agreed. Most repairs I get in are for broken USB sockets. 

There's a guitar midi foot controller, designed to be kicked around on a stage which has an SMT connector, no mechanics holding it in place!

Keeps me in work, I guess!

Now we are about to see those teeny-weenie USB Type C connectors that will supply up to 20V at 5A. Wow. Anyway I hope they are more durable and dependable than micro-USB. I have so many cables and adapters that I've either trashed or converted to barrel plugs.
