A very short update. I have just received samples of the Samtec SL-115-TT-19 and BBL-115-T-E machine screw socket and headers. They will allow us to mount the 1Bitsy very close to the base board making the whole design little less clunky and strange looking. The board to board distance using this combination of connectors comes down to 3.86mm. :)

Side-note: I hope that the measurements of the mill-max pogopin in their datasheet is accurate and this whole mounting scheme of the 1Bitsy will all work out. :)

Very nice! I recently found some 3mm high female pin headers for regular 2.54mm-pitch pins (male ones are easy to trim), so my projects will become more compact soon probably.
