********Closed 3rd Lynx Express Coop********
« on: February 27, 2009, »
This Co-Op is for the Lynx Express.  As explained later on there will be three kit options.

Please Note there is no limit on these units. You may order how ever many you need.
The only limit will be the $5000 coop limit per coop rules. 

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

Kit1 - Lynx Express Complete Kit Parts, PCB, Heat Sink
Kit2 - Lynx Express Heatsink (Anodized Red)
Kit3 - Lynx Express PCB only

No kits will contain the Cases as it is just as cost effective for the users to order them and easier for the coop managers.

This Coop will close on march 31 2009  at 8:00 PM Eastern Standard Time zone or if it is filled sooner it will be closed at that time. Full Payment is expected when the coop is closed no orders can be made until all members have paid. All members will receive PM’s when the coop closes with details of payments due.

Please get your paypal payments in as soon as you get the Co-Op invoice PM as no orders can be placed until all payments have been received.

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

What is a Lynx Express you may ask?

Well the Lynx Express is a new 16 Channel controller based off the popular Lynx and FreeStyle designs but with some nice new features.  The Lynx Express supports on board push button start address programming, the ability to program the Pic without removing it from the controller, and On board diagnostics.  In addition this controller has some advanced features.

Some of the features are:

1.  Custom dimming curves that can be assigned on a per channel basis. What this means is that you can have standard and Led light strings plugged into your controller and be able to get them to dim at the same rate.

2.  Testing.  If you have problems with your LE.  You can now put the LE into a diagnostics mode that will help isolate those problems.

3.  Future item.  Wireless  Yes that’s right this controller will support a plug and play module that will allow your controller to go  wireless.

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

You will receive all the parts you need for the complete kit, Heatsink, or just the PCB based on what your order.  To complete your setup you will need power cords for the AC hookup and a DMX dongle to use along with the Vixen software program.  At the time of this writing I can only suggest the use of the Lynx USB DMX adapter or the Enttec Pro.  There are other adapters that can be used but due to issues that have been found with them I cannot recommend them.

Now for the pricing.  Well by now I am sure that you have asked what about pricing?  How much do I need to pay to get one or more of these great Lynx Express units?

BOM’s can be found in the DLA wiki at the following URL.

We have a base goal of 75 kits.  This goal allows the cost per unit to drop low enough to make it cost effective.
 
Pricing is below broken into the 75 unit levels.  The pricing below will include all fees, shipping and handling charges to get the items to the Coop Manager. Full Details are included in the attached spreadsheet as per coop rules.

*****75 Kit Level*****

Kit1 – Lynx Express Complete Kit /w heatsink  (No Case)    $67.76
Kit2 - Heatsink                                               $5.75
Kit3 - PCB                                                       $11.21

Shipping will be based on the USPS flat rate box.  This is the box that will ship in the US for $10.35 a box and international for $29.95 Canada and Mexico $41.95.  This is the shipping cost per flat rate box.

Depending on the quantity we end up with we may well have parts on backorder so this coop is being started early enough in the year to make sure we have time to fill this with plenty of time for everyone to build all of them for the season. We could be looking at 2 months from the time of part order to the time of shipment to you. This would be about the end of May for you to have them.

Post with the quanitity you wish in this thread.
