Now, will it work? (The PCB, not the free holder :) )
It took 3 days 5 hours from FedEx pick-up to delivery.

Congratulations! :)

All this and now we find there's a goof on the pcb.
:scared:

Well, so far, so good. The power section works okay. I'm going to put the chips in tomorrow a section at a time. Hopefully, by the end of the week I will have compared it to the existing board it's replacing.
This is my first PCB. I used Eagle and hated it but that's what I sent to JLCPCB. I learned KiCAD in a day to do the 3D. I have to say I definitely prefer KiCAD. My god, it's free and to get 5 boards for $25 in a week is dumbfounding to me.
S. Petrukhin:
Funny: KiCad draws connectors with mounting caps in a 3D model. :)
JohnnyMalaria, I wish you 100 more PCBs and that they were all without goof the first time. :)

The connector models are from the manufacturer. The reason I gave up on Eagle was the nightmare of the "integration" with Fusion 360 and the painful, repetitive steps to go through to put in a new model.
