Before use, you'll need to attach headers so you can plug in this sensor into a breadboard. Soldering is essential!
Note we show images of the BME280 sensor, which looks similar - the process is the same as it would be for the CCS811
Prepare the header strip:
Cut the strip to length if necessary. It will be easier to solder if you insert it into a breadboard - long pins down
Add the breakout board and Solder:
Place the breakout board over the pins so that the short pins poke through the breakout pads
Be sure to solder all pins for reliable electrical contact.
