Originally I did not see much benefits to put the nano into a box, however, after "reading the mail " here I see a "major" issue with the SMD coax connectors breaking off.
So I am not after making it bulletproof and super mini portable , but if I can convince my teenage grand-kid , owner of 3D printer , to print me suitable enclosure - with the goal to secure the connections...
Now as far as putting the HC module inside - I got no issue soldering wires if necessary , but on first glance there seems to be very little headroom to insert the module. BUT they make bigger spacers and longer screws.
From all this discussion - I find it peculiar that I just cannot identify if I have SMD pads or feed-thru without opening it up.
But it really does not matter - it has to be opened anyway. .
I suppose "open hardware" concept - with multiple clones has its "advantages".
