Yeah even my high temp gorilla hot glue isn’t as strong

What’s your favorite glue gun? I know there are a ton of options out there

Hell, gluegun.com is a thing

I’m still using this black one from Sears - it’s technically my parents but I took it from them lol so I need to buy one for myself and give it back

It’s ancient but it works really well

I’ll look it up!

Edit: HAH right :rofl: $280? I guess I’ll live in peasant land for now. I’m looking for $50>

I thought you wanted quality :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

Let’s not talk about the fact it’s 250$ for a box of glue stick for that gun :rofl:

Whenever you see amber glue on our stuff, admire the dollar signs :laughing:

I do like those black hot glue sticks. I wasn’t on board with hot glue until I tried those. Sticks really well and usually removes pretty clean still. I use it on the threaded nut for switches and charge ports and hasn’t failed me yet. It’s a pretty good tool for testing different setup too since you can remove it.

Yeah idk what’s different about them. Must be something in the glue compound, they just stick really well

Yknow seeing enclosures like this really brings into question how much these radios interfere with each other.

Andrew have you guys ever run into issues with cross signal interference?

Any device operating on the same spectrum will create noise, which impacts link budget.

We’re aware of this and have designed the FreeSK8 system to keep noise to a minimum; Robogotchi logs offline without a BLE tether + our OSRR only brings it’s wifi online for pairing and then disables it during runtime, so only the primary Xbee3 radios are active.

The GPS and cellular radio in Metr LTE shouldn’t have tangible impact, it’s really 2.4ghz that’s problematic.

Why not just put some kapton tape over it and then hot glue? You prefer the to live life the risky way? :sweat_smile:
