I’m alive!
June 9th, 2009
Hi everyone. I am alive, even though I have not been posting. I have spent the past couple weeks designing the first prototype. It is nothing too great, but I did get all the circuit boards ordered last week. I am finishing up all the parts list and hope to have a unit together in about a week or two!
Are you any closer to knowing what a price point will be?
I should have a better idea in about 2 weeks. I have all the info on processors and controls side, but am working out the final details with the UI/Display. I am trying to work towards $250 wired / $300 wireless. But these numbers can still go down depending where I can find places to cut component cost.
The major cost is the temp probes! 4 fairly accurate temp probes with the hardware and circuits to power them is well over $100 of the cost!
Getting closer Ryan, thanks for the update. Good temp. probes are expensive… don’t know why.
