So I'm trying to figure out the best way to connect the accelerometer to the Flora, and it's more difficult than I thought. Currently I have a cloth ribbon cable soldered to snaps that are sewn into the sleeve, connecting the contacts.

(Sorry for the blur)

I'm concerned about the snaps, to be honest, because they have to be squeezed pretty closely together... I can see a short happening pretty easily. I'm starting to wonder if it'll just be better to bite the bullet and use conductive thread down the length of the sleeve, even though it'll have a higher resistance than wire. Maybe it'll work if I double up the thread?

Here's a photo of the sleeve powered up and sort of working, though it's depressingly unreliable compared to version 0.1. Does anyone know if it's possible to upload video to a project? Do I just need to link to youtube? I'd like to show the sleeve in its full, functional glory once I get it working again.
