More notes on my hermes 2 lite
31st December 2023

Things I have noticed that were different in my shipment of the hermes in december 2023 that were different from what others have reported.

1. Several Youtube videos mentioned that no screw and nut was proveded for mounting the shim to the board and case. However mine came with two M3 screws and nuts for this purpose

2. in some youtube videos they show attaching the heatsinks as a step that has to be done before final assembly. My board had the heatsinks already mounted.

I think makerfabs is polishing their kit based on youtube feedback. Which is a good thing.
