Title: Lynx Etherdongle COOP **** CANCELLED ****
Post by: tstewart on May 23, 2014,
This Coop is for the Lynx EtherDongle.

*********************************************************************************
Please read this post completely before posting in this Coop.

This Coop will have only one option. It will be for a complete kit including PCB, parts, and case.
You will receive all the parts you need to build a complete EtherDongle including the machined case. The Two main chips which are surface mount will be soldered on the PCB for you when you receive it so there is no surface mount for you to deal with.  The PIC chip will NOT be pre-programmed.

Please keep in mind that this Coop will take longer than others because of the time required to get the PCBs processed and the cases machined.

Kit 1 - Etherdongle with Case that has Etherdongle cutouts.
Kit 2 - Etherdongle with Case that has Etherdongle and Conductor cutouts.

Kit 3 - Case Only with Etherdongle cutouts.
Kit 4 - Case Only with Etherdongle cutouts and Conductor cutouts.


Information can be found here:
http://www.diylightanimation.com/wiki/index.php?title=EtherDongleUse
http://diylightanimation.com/index.php?board=41.0
*********************************************************************************
The Coop will be limited to 100 kits.

This Coop will close on August 31st at 8:00 PM Eastern Standard Time or when it fills its limit of 100 kits.

Full Payment is expected when the Coop is closed. No orders can be made until all members have paid. All members will receive PMs with details or will be directed by post how to pay once the Coop closes.

Please get your PayPal payments in as soon as you get the Coop invoice PM as no orders can be placed until all payments have been received.

By joining this Coop you also agree that the Coop manager, DLA (as a board to also include all administrators, moderators, and members) shall not be held for any liability.  You are joining this Coop at your own risk.

As with any Coop this Coop is subject to the forum rules.  These rules can be reviewed using the following link.

Forum Coop rules
http://diylightanimation.com/index.php?topic=111.0

*********************************************************************************

Here is the pricing breakdown based on the initial quotes. 
Pricing is in US Dollars and includes PayPal and Coop fees.

We have a base goal of 100 kits. This goal allows the cost per unit to drop low enough to make it cost effective to run the coop. Below this number we will not make the order.

EtherDongle Kit With PCB, parts and case.
Per Kit At Qty 50 - $102.00

NOTE: There is one part that went up by $4.00 since when purchased last time it was on sale.  I will be looking around for another source to get a lower price.

Case only kits.
Per Kit Under 50 - $7.25
Per Kit At Qty 50 - $6.25

This is an estimate. As always higher numbers reduce pricing and lower numbers increase pricing. 

*********************************************************************************

Shipping will be by US Postal Service Priority Mail Flat Rate boxes. All orders will require at least a medium flat rate box since the cases will not fit in a smaller box.

Shipping Charges: for the “Medium” flat rate box with PayPal fees. (In US Dollars)
Domestic: $11.98   
Canada and Mexico: $34.21
All Others: $49.64

If you wish to have insurance on your package it is your responsibility to choose the amount and look up the cost to add. You must add this to your PayPal payment and in the comments explain you paid for insurance and how much. We cannot be held responsible for your package once accepted at the post office and we have a receipt of shipment if it is not insured. 

*********************************************************************************

Post with the quantity you wish in this thread.  Please do not post questions or your thoughts in the coop thread. Start a new thread in the correct area for these. Coop threads are strictly for people requesting orders. If you later wish to change your quantity please post again clearly stating that this is an update to a previous order and how many you wish it to be now.

Thanks,

Todd

Excuse my ignorance but I am assuming this is a PixelNet Etherdongle. Correct.

The Etherdongle can be programmed to do either Pixelnet or DMX.

List updated.

COOP has also been extended to July 20th.  We currently only have 27 etherdongle kits order.  Also with the breakdown of cases 17 without cutouts and 20 with cutouts we don't have enough ordered to get a good price.

List has been updated.  We are now up to 33 ordered.  We need to get to 50 to make it worth it.  One thing that will be done to help keep cost down is the cases will need to be ordered with only the Etherdongle cutouts.  If we order a small quantity of both the price will go way up.

I have extended the deadline one last time to August 31st.  Any later than this I will be pressed to get everything done for this year.  It may still be trouble depending on part availability at the time of order,

I know that I'm not part of this coop but does it really make sense to keep extending it like this, especially with other members putting units for sale in the sale / trade board?   At this rate, people will not get these until the end of September, if at all.  I would determine what the price would be at the current order volume and query the members of this coop to see if they are willing to pay the higher price.  Since the only way to get one of these is in a coop, I would bet that the price is far from the motivating factor of being in this coop to begin with.

Post by: tstewart on September 07, 2014,
Due to the lack of orders we are going to have to cancel this COOP.  It is getting to late to be able to get this COOP done in time for this year.  There are two problem items with this COOP that need a good quantity before the COOP can be held.  The first is the PCB and the surface mount parts.  35 boards is just not enough to get the board house to do the order without a significant price increase.  The other item is the cases.  To get the cases with precut holes they also need a good quantity to justify the cost.  I extended this COOP for a long time to try and get the orders but we did not make it.

Sorry for the inconvenience.  For next year I will make the suggestion that this COOP start earlier in the year instead of the scheduled end of June start we had this year.

Are there commercial alternatives or other DIY kits that can take the place of the etherdongle?  Not sure where to go from here.

I posted in the sale/trade as Want to Buy Etherdongle and I had a response within a couple of days.  I have already purchased one from another member.  There may be other members with spare ones to sell.  Just another option you can try that worked for me.
