There are a number of posts on this board about problems with Nano Every. Actually none of them work with the Nano Every in this office. We bought 3 Nano's and we were sent three Nano Every's, even without asking for them. I do not recommend buying a Nano Every unless you are sure of yourself.
We are going to return them, they either do not work or require serious special treatment that is not in the updates we receive.
I'm sorry to hear that you were not satisfied with your Nano Every boards.
It's true that a Nano Every is a significantly different board than the classic Nano, but I do think this is a nice board for people who want to experiment with the ATmega4809.
If anyone is having problems with the Nano Every, they are always welcome to ask here and we'll see if we can help them out.
I tried all the fixes that were suggested. It took almost an hour, which was quite a waste considering I just bought 3 more Mega's that work fine for a few dollars a piece.
