Review on Electop Micro SD to SD Card Extension Cable Adapter: TF Flexible Extender for GPS, 3D Printer, Raspberry Pi, TV, DVD - SD/RS-MMC/SDHC/MMC Compatible (2 Pack) by Robert Arneson

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Flexible micro SD extension cable.

Versatile. It was necessary to experiment with maintenance methods when replacement of the SD microchip was required. The advantage of a 3D printer is that the micro SD chip is loaded elsewhere on the printer, not on the motherboard. The Raspberry Pi 3 in LCD case needs this extension cable because where the Micro SD chip is, you need to disassemble the LCD case to upgrade or reboot the Pi. I made a hole in the side of the Pi/LCD case to allow the extension to be inserted in place of the microchip and conveniently inserted into the case where the removable cover exposes the microchip slot. Now this Raspberry Pi station with 7 inch LCD display is a joy to maintain.
