The East-European prototype is (sadly) not yet assembled. Personal issues have taken precedence for the last month and a half ...

However, I was asking around about mounting options of the bus-bars on the pcb since I was not able to source the conductive epoxy. Some friends suggested using a thin sheet of cooper, annealed so it becomes very soft, and rely on mechanical coupling. Apparently the cooper will become so soft that will shape itself into close contact. I would probably have to provide (bronze/brass?) washers on the other side of the pcb to spread the clamping force and use some locking product on the threads.

What do you think of this?
