@@ -8,6 +8,12 @@ Note that using ADXL345 requires some soldering and crimping. ADXL345 can be
connected to a Raspberry Pi directly, or to an SPI interface of an MCU
board (it needs to be reasonably fast).
+When sourcing ADLX345, be aware that there is a variety of different PCB
+board designs and different clones of them. Make sure that the board supports
+SPI mode (small number of boards appear to be hard-configured for I2C by
+pulling SDO to GND), and, if it is going to be connected to a 5V printer MCU,
+that it has a voltage regulator and a level shifter.
