Yep. Will be the same regardless of connector. It's not ideal but not really a problem, spend a few minutes bending the pins in and it solders nicely. Wide pins, high current capability, strong physical connection and it lines up perfectly with the centre of the PCB edge.Ahh, k. Was that the case with the Sullens edge connector too?Oh, re the gap, you need to manually bend the pins inwards with pliers or a screwdriver.
There are through hole edge connectors but I'm not sure I like them. They're more expensive and more difficult to source.
