Aftermarket E/X-Mag Boards!!!!!

[p8ntbal4me]

yay, can we pre-order?

Nope!

No pre-orders here bud. I purchased most of the parts myself (UTBs, Wire harness, board connectors, HES, crimpers, wire connectors, etc) so when you order a board,... your paying me directly for your board. Chris is making ALL the boards in advance,..

Since most of the cost is on my end,.. I can sit back and wait for someone to buy a board,.. then ship. Just a rough look,.. Id say from the time you purchase it would take a week or two, to get it in hand.

So whats the word on final cost and when and where can we start making a purchase?

Updated prices are at the bottom of post #1.

So far I think the cost will be $150,... and if I can get a deal on solenoids,.. we are looking even better on those.

As of today,.... the E-Mag UTB daughter board project is on hold.

I have contracted out the work to another company and we are looking at brand new stand alone boards to replace the entire setup as it is.

More to come,...

Any word on when the new boards will be available?

[p8ntbal4me]

The manufacturer contacted me yesterday with questions on last minute proto-type changes. They informed me that one specific change would not be possible due to the size constraints.

The first round of boards will be a test product.

The second round will be a complete solution. There is a reason for doing it this way,....

so are we going to get a date?

[flyingpootang]

so are we going to get a date?

I've seen a pic of Jai and he's not much to look at, so getting a home run on the first date is likley

All jokes aside I can't wait to see the board...

The delay is the number of boards I am purchasing.

I went with 100 board over 1000.

It would cost me roughly 11,000 to make the boards cheap enough.

Doing the math out thats $37 per board (with some other machine and labor fees.

Then add in components,... drives the price up.

Then add in assembly fee,... drives the price up.

So I went with the best of the options. Have them made here in the USA and take longer and pay only for parts.

Boards will still be costly,... but they will have more features,... options,.. and they will be upgradable/expandable.

Whoa whoa WHOA!!!


I lost 47 pounds since the last time I posted a video of me on AO!!!!

I will make an new video of the board when it comes along for testing..... should be very impressive from what I was going to be purchasing.

Kind of curious...what happened? I mean, it seemed that we were so close, then all of a sudden, BAM!

Long story short:

I paid $3,000 for UTBs that were supposed to control the daughter boards Chris was contracted to make.

He failed to make the boards. I have a bunch of UTBs that have no homes.

I have contracted the work to a board manufacturer...... the boards will be made now,.. I have a CONTRACT to have them made. They dont get paid until they deliver the boards.

Did I just read OLED in there?

OLED is VERY expensive.

Not needed.

Not even as an option? What about a LCD?

[p8ntbal4me]

Let me put it to you this way:

If someone can come up with $9,300 for the LCD,..... and the assembly,... I will make it.

As soon as you have a price on whatever it is that is coming, I need to know, so I can budget that amount from my tax return.

[my automag]

wow, so its been a while since i could stand on my own two feet in life.
first thing i do i check in here and this is what i find, a year long teasing project topic.
maybe the hard life of being broke and homeless isnt so bad after all,
especially when you come to read this whaiting game.
man i would like one of those boards. i guess i can only wait now some more for things to fall into the right places.
good luck and dont give up.

welcome back all friends, nice to see some familliar names and activities still happening hope all goes well

i read this for the first time yesterday and was totally stoked
read through the whole thing then looked at the dates
i was slightly discouraged, but i know these guys are busy
and as much as they are busy, they are also serious
so im with you, ill wait for it because it will be worth it

[p8ntbal4me]

This project is 100% moving forward.

I have contracted the work to a new developer.

Just a teaser,..... you tell me....



Its 90% done in this photo.

The one pictured there is too wide to fit in an E-Mag. I have since then made it 1.75" long by .60" wide.

Testing will begin in 3 weeks.
