==== Assembly Instructions ====


    - The 20-pin connector should be soldered to the PCB with the key on the side opposite of the writing, on the side with the little key graphic.
    - The Power Tap fits wires up to 18ga and has built-in strain relief. Feed the wire upwards through the strain relief and then strip the wires, feed through the soldering holes and solder in place.
    - Pull the excess wire back through the strain relief until it is taut.
    - If you need more assembly instructions than this, you probably shouldn’t be trying to attempt this.
