I have 3 Panther DMX Player Kits ready for shipping that I am offering up to 3 individuals that are will be help beta test the Panther. I have programmed the ATMEL Chip. The panther requires a voltage from  7 - 12 Volts DC. I do not have any power adapters for them and I do not supply the SD Card as I want you to test with what you have. The Power jack is the same one used by the Lynx TX/RX Wireless Modules. You can find the a power adapter on eBay searching to "12V DC 2A Power Adapter", thats where I purchased mine. I'm Looking for Individuals that have a range of DMX Equipment. If Interested please post here with what DMX Equipment you have that you are willing to test with. The complete kit runs about $25 which includes USPS priority mail shipping.

Reports from exist beta tester have been good with no outstanding issues, and they seem to be pretty please with the Panther.

Thanks

I have D-Light DMX boards (AC, DC, and Firefli), DMX Servo boards and DMX AC boards.
I've been most interested in the Panther for DC and Servo standalone operation.
Have Soldering Station/Will Solder for food.

I have some DMX floodlights, from a Chinese supplier, I use for landscaping.  I also use Lynx LE's and holiday coro 3 channel modules.  My first year for pixels will use smart strings.

I am using a couple of the Chauvet color splash Jr par cans.  3 of the American DJ Par 64 cans. As well as a few flood lights I made up using the 3 channel DMX controllers that Holiday Coro sells, and DC Servos I control via DMX.  The rest of my DMX system includes Rays 27ch DMX controller board, and the LOR iDMX-1000 controller.  I also use some of Rays small DMX ribbon controllers. I use a wide variety of DMX software made for holiday lighting and a few for venue lighting.

I'm running some destiny floods, rainbow floods, LEv5s, a chineese 512-channel pixel controller, a holiday coro 3 channel RGB controller.

I'm actually thinking this could be an interesting use in my boat. :)

Is there anything needed to program (update) the code?  I have a pickit 3, but I don't have any arduino apparatus.

Steve, The ATMEL Chip will come programmed. However, if you needed to flash a new firmware you would need a AVR compatible programmer. I have an Arduino put I also have picked up a USBASP programmer off ebay. Here is a link to the one I got. The beta board does not have a ISP (In System Programmer), but I will be adding one. The ISP is a six pin, so if you get an USBASP which is 10 pins you'll also want to get a 10pin to 6 pin converter kinsa like this.
