Here is what I bought, cheaper than I remembered $3.70 for 5 plush shipping. I paid $16.41 for 15 shipped.

I see, but shipping to my country is 90 USD...  :icon_eek:

I have a few of similar marked optos, maybe they're the same? Will check.

In the meantime, there are datasheets for Xvive products: http://www.xviveaudio.com/art/download-a0044.html

I'm not sure where you're seeing $90 shipping. I paid $16 for 3 packs of 5. When I tap shipping I see AliExpress shipping $3.05, EMS $40.17 and DHL $40.28. I obviously chose the first option. There's no way I'd pay $40 shipping for $10 of parts.

For my country, there's only one option for shipping, DHL and it costs USD 90... Before this COVID outbreak, shipping was possible using regular post and was dirt cheap, but it seems there's no more now.

Sorry, I didn't realize you were not in the US.
