Can you really run I2C over 10 meters—or more? It’s a protocol designed for short PCB traces, but in this video, Clem puts it to the test using Raspberry Pi Picos, coaxial cable, and some hands-on experimentation. From breadboard setups to cables running out the window, we explore how far you can push I2C before it breaks! bit.ly/3FsqCaz
