What is the prefered USB cable type to connect to Adafruit F

Post by cad83 »

Hello,
I just purchased Adafruit Flora device, among other products to re-create the LED Firewalker for my own use.

I just realized that the Arduino USB cable i have isnt' the correct cable to transfer the program from my pc to the device.

I found this cable on this site: USB Cable - Standard A-B - 3 ft/1m

Is that the correct USB cable to connect to my pc to transfer code?

As an FYI, I have a 64 Bit windows 7 pc with the Arduino1.0.5 IDE installed. Please let me know if that cable above is correct or not so I can purchase it to complete the projects I'd like to do.

Thanks.

The connector on the Flora is a "Mini-B" so you need an A to Mini B
