FYI it's a JST S4B-EH

Although currently OOS on Digikey, $0.22.

FYI: There's no tab on the earlier chassis' to keep the smaller boards like Model-H in place, had to resort to sticky back foam.

Thanks a lot for the part number. I'll add it! If you 3D print the little piece around the UBS connector, it will hold the board in place, even without the tab in the chassis.

No problem, glad to help :+1:

I did print that piece off (just not pictured) - and whilst it does sandwich the board to some degree, it's far from "held" and still rattles around without the tape sadly.
