Update on the list. I don't mind updating this every day or two. It's looking like some want enclosures, some don't...and some are specifically asking for terminal blocks as well. I think it's up to Lewis to determine how granular the options he feels comfortable in carrying out for the different orders in addition to how he'd like to define what a 'default' kit should be .

In the meantime, I'll do my best to keep the list maintained as an impromptu record keeper. Please do check your name on the list though and if there's an error, let me know and I'll correct it when the list gets updated.

Perhaps for now, unless otherwise spec'd, we'll assume that a number beside your name means you want an assembled kit with an enclosure and terminal blocks?

Please add me to the list for 1 fully assembled with enclosure, just in case.

Thanks in advance.

Lewis,

By my count this morning, it looks like you have been asked to construct about 75 +/- kits for this project! This is a huge effort. Is there anyway we can assist you in doing this? We all appreciate what you have volunteered to do; but, did you expect the response to be of this magnitude?

In for one kit please, don't care on the assembly.

Thanks!

Hey Lewis!

Please count me in for two full assemblies with enclosures and terminal blocks.

Just lemmeknow how much to send you, and I'd also like to send a little more because you are going the extra mile.

Cheers!

Hi everyone,
Just a quick update. I am posting this on an iPad, from the bottom of a hole where my septic tank used to be, waiting for the new tank to arrive. Yes, I know, **** happens, i've got the T-shirt ... and I've learned a lot about septic systems in the past month.

I will be sending the PCB files out this weekend after I do the final dimensional checks and package checks. Based on the current list, I will be ordering 100 boards, so we will get the best price.
As soon as the PCB files are out for fab, I will also order the components from DigiKey and the boxes from Mouser (for those who want the enclosure...you can mount this on your own with velcro or your own box).

In order to simplify things, I will probably go ahead and build all the assembled units with the wire to board terminal blocks, rather than solder wires to the PCB. This allows folks to choose their own style/size/color wires.
If there is anyone who does not want the terminal blocks and must have soldered wires, please let me know how long and what type of wire and I will do my best to accommodate.

Once I receive all the boards and parts, I will be able to determine the exact cost per unit (parts + shipping). I will post that information in this thread.

As far as assembling and soldering, it's not big deal. It will actually be relaxing, as I've been doing this since I was a kid. Doing 1 or doing 75 really won't matter.

Once assembled, I will start sending PM's so folks can provide me their shipping addresses. Inside the package will be the unit, a hardcopy of the schematic, a hardcopy of the PCB layout and a return address envelope. When you get the unit and everything is OK, just use the envelope to send payment. I am a trusting person when it comes to RL members, so I have no problem sending out the units prior to receiving payment.

Sorry it's taken a bit longer than I would have liked, but between work and the septic failure, it's been "fun".

Besides, assembling electronics will be much better than shoveling **** ... the only ones happy about the current septic situation are the dogs.
