Looking at the PCB of the original HSS2 i got reminded of the curved traces, i never really used this feature in Fritzing (a feature request i did that got accepted 💪) this seemed like the ideal moment for it. When designing the layout the arduino TQFP package looked like a little 🦠 with the via's and the curved traces, fitting very good in 2020.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp class=\"\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e3X AAA battery power\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIt works best with NiMH batteries because the have a discharge curve that make the battery have keep a similar voltage over a long period in time.
