    missing lighting cpc

    Personally I think the OP was only looking for someone to say it was OK to take a CPC from somewhere else , not wanting to entertain any other sound advice and now we won't hear from him now someone has said it is OK.

    I.p rating of the bottom of the board exceeded IP2X Sharp metal edges of the containment have not been provided with protection. Both classed as a c2.
