Is that micro USB? It was released mid 2022. You have to be kidding me. Why are they using that garbage connector when USB-C is standard everywhere? All the micro-B cables I have (maybe 10) are super loose, causing connection problems.
Probably to help keep the cost down. I seem to remember there was a shortage of USB c connectors at some point as well.
You only need it to program the unit, after that you can power it however you want to.
