Thanks in advance for your help.
I have a Photon Battery Shield and want to connect a Solar Panel. Rather than the SMT connector, I would like to use an in-line connector and solder the wires to the shield. I can see the schematic, but can't find anything to correlate the schematic to the actual pad layout on the board.
Based on the image of the SMT connector, I think I would solder the "+" (center pin) wire to the two pads on the right side and the "-" (outside shield) wire to the two pads on the left side based on the image here: https://learn.sparkfun.com/tutorials/ph ... okup-guide
Is this correct?
Thanks,
