keyboard cables with heatshrink
« on: Mon, 05 February 2018, 08:07:11 »
I was wondering how well the heat shrink holds up over time on keyboard cable if you unplug and re-plug them in a couple times a week

No problems with the heatshrink. One of my boards I'd disconnect every day because the back lighting would stay on. Heatshrink still looks fine.

The port typically gives out, before the soft stuff does

"It turns out that for a decade, whenever Trump wanted to get a loan, or make a deal, he would inflate the value of his real estate. For instance, suggesting that his 11,000-square foot penthouse was a 30,000-square foot penthouse.
And the attorney general of New York knew that Trump's property values were inflated because when it came time to pay taxes, Trump undervalued the very same properties.
It was all part of a very sophisticated real estate practice known as “lying.”

No need. You really shouldn't be worried about the heat shrink.

I think the future is those magnetic cables, so you don't ruin the jack.
