[sdiy] qingpu jacks in china

My only concern here would be ensuring they actually come from Qing-Pu.

You can trust LCSC/JLCPCB as much as any Western distributor to supply genuine parts.

I'm not sure who made the ones that Tayda sells (
https://www.taydaelectronics.com/hardware/3-5mm-plugs-jacks/pj-3001f-3-5-mm-mono-phone-jack.html
) but I used them on a prototype and they were very bad. The Normalizing
connection will stop working if a plugged-in patch cable gets some
sideways strain on it.

I think there's even been threads about this problem before, but it
always makes me think twice.

Let us know how it works out! Having JLC be able to place those jacks
would be a beneficial to lots of us I'm sure.

Mike
