No solder spring header installation

Hi guys, I’m building my first ever corne from Typeractive, feeling really excited now!

I was reading the installation guide of nice!nano from https://docs.typeractive.xyz/build-guides/corne-wireless/nice-nano.

It says for No-Solder Hotswap headers, I only need to insert them into the top of PCB, but since there are two ends of a solderless header and the pins on each end has pretty much the same length. I am not sure which end should be attached to PCB?

Thanks for your help!

Hey there!

For the no-solder headers, insert them into the PCB by pushing on the plastic part until it's flush with the PCB.

The length of the pins shouldn't matter since it's no solder.

Let me know if you have any other questions!
