Some things baffle me in electronics... like how there is seemingly no readily available DC power connector that slots into holes in veroboard (leaving you to spend ages cutting away at the holes so the paddles will fit in), like how it seemed right-angled turned-pin headers were impossible to find (got 'em eventually)... and loads of others, but I really digress...
...the current scratching of the head has been caused by the size of PCB terminal blocks, these kinds of things...
**broken link removed**
...and why their pitch always seems to be 2 holes wide on veroboard, as opposed to 1 hole wide. If it was 1 hole wide I could connect the outputs of my ULN2803AN transitor arrays directly into their track on veroboard, as it is, I now end up playing around with different pieces of wire connecting them up.
Of course, I accept I might well be missing something... does anyone know if such a thing exists (I've done some rudimentary, well - about 10 minutes or so) searching and drawn a blank so far.
Or any solution that allows me to put wires into sockets on my veroboard circuit (so I can remove them later as I wish) where the receptacle is a thing where the pitch is 1 hole apart?
