This 10 Kg Strain Gauge measures 80mm long and has the same functionality as the 75mm long version. We got a few of these when we ordered the 75mm version and rather than toss them we are offering them for sale at a discount!
Strain gauge excitation positive / power lead. Adafruit HX711 guide says E+ connects to the red wire on a strain gauge.
Strain gauge excitation negative / common ground lead. Adafruit HX711 guide says E- connects to the black wire on a strain gauge.
Wheatstone bridge positive differential signal. Adafruit HX711 guide says A+ connects to the green wire on a strain gauge.
Wheatstone bridge negative differential signal. Adafruit HX711 guide says A- connects to the white wire on a strain gauge.
