The pins are much thinner than the headers of the expansion board

[mendrugory]

Hi,

I have received my wipy with the expansion board and a couple of pin connector this week. My first try has been to use the wipy with the expansion board, because it does not have pins, but the pins are much thinner than the headers so they are not able to connect.

Am I doing anything wrong?

It looks like you got female headers instead of male headers (I seem to recall seeing options for both on some of the rewards). What you want is something that looks like:

or there are what's know as stackable headers which looks sort of like what you have, but with much longer leads:

Hi,

You were one of the backers that ordered female headers + the expansion board. Since female headers are not compatible (not directly) with the expansion board, we decided to make you guys a favor a send the headers loose instead of soldering them so that you can decide what to do.

Cheers,
Daniel

Thank you for your answers.

Although I can not take advantage of your favor, thanks again, it is very easy to use the expansion board.
