       feel like this is the ham radio/hacker equivalent of the "crazy guy pointing at pinboard with web of string-connected notes" memeupshot: I think I know which pins are VBUS/GND/USBD+/USBD- now.

       FTR I'm thinking on the pogo pin connector here, top left is GND, two underneath marked 2 & 3 are data, rightmost is VBUS.

       I love this teal-blue colour Motorola are using for soldermask these days, it's a vibe.

       Sprayed myself in the eye with contact cleaner trying to get the flux off the pogo pins >:(

       Really surprised they aren't doing any validation of the charger. The battery is marked IMPRES 2 but they don't seem to give a shit and are happy with 5V. I noticed the official charger (PMPN4500A) seems to just have a USB C input on it so I kinda guessed it'd charge from USB.

       I just need to figure out what the fucking screws are now. They aren't M2.5 or M3. Both of those fit but bind up after a few turns. Feels like a weird pitch? UNC? Erfff.
