@smitty I just ordered a usb isolator with the external power input based on the convo from the recent workbench episode, so you can report back that you guys successfully helped someone spend money during that episode 😛
@N3VEM @smitty What’s the make and model of the one you ordered? Would you mind sharing your experience/tests after it arrives?

@AF0M @smitty sure thing - this is what I ordered - I’ll share how it works out when it arrives. Looks like it’s coming on the boat that goes round the other way though - right now it says mid September 😲

@AF0M @smitty I ordered the 4 port one with the external power input
@N3VEM I see the power input terminals that @smitty mentioned on the Workbench podcast for feeding power into both sides of the opto-isolator. Since it is the slow-boat shipping, I may just order one for testing myself--thanks!
