Why parts designed for hobbyists are not ideal for professional manufacturing
We think components from hobbyist sites from the likes of Seeed Studio, SparkFun, and AdaFruit are fantastic. They have some really unique and cool products that you can't always buy from normal distributor channels in the United States. However, we generally recommended that customers stick to using these types of parts for only hobbyist projects since they aren’t suited for a professional manufacturing environment.
