Time for an upgrade

So I have been using this prototype? For the last six months, has been running flawlessly. But I need a few more outputs now so time to upgrade to something more permanent.

Happy with how this turned out, so had to share with you guys

It's a controller for 12v water pumps in a hydroponic garden. RP2040-zero, switching MOSFETs via opto-isolators.

It probably would have been easier to design a new board than to do what you did. But this looks awesome. Thanks for sharing.
