Title: WANTED: Assembled Dongle or Dongle PCB
Post by: mcalderaro on December 27, 2010,
I would like to buy a dongle if anyone has one they are willing to sell.  I am willing to purchase just the PCB, or fully functional one that has already been put together.  I currently do not own one yet.

If there are any additional dongle PCB's out there after mcalderaro finds his, I'm also looking.

Thanks!

I am curious, if you need more than one Dongle, why dont you just switch over to something like the Joshua System Ethcon Gateway  DR4 or even the 8 DIY kit . Price per universe is much cheaper.

Its uses E1.31 protocol.  There is a 4 universe unit that comes soldered.  The 8 universe unit is a solder kit as far as I know.  Cost depends on the unit your buy and with what options..PicKIT2  Pickit 3, a case, etc.

DR4   http://www.j1sys.com/ecg-dr4/  (http://www.j1sys.com/ecg-dr4/)

DMXRen8   http://www.j1sys.com/ecg-dmxren8/ (http://www.j1sys.com/ecg-dmxren8/)

The DR4 is available with a really nice aluminum case. 

Edited by Aussiephil - Link to other forum removed as it is off topic in thread. I'll leave it to the other Mods to determine if the DR4 info is off-topic, personally I think it is just advise.

I have the following:

ENTTEC Pro

RPM ENTTEC Clone

DR4

The DR4 is the winner overall, both on price per Universe and quality.
