Summer module push begins tomorrow

2009-06-28 by Paul Schreiber

I'm back from vacation (went to Key West, FL for some decent fish dinners 
and to see Ernest Hemmingway's house) and starting tomorrow, the Summer 
Module Push begins. Here is the schedule:

June 29-July 3: assembled module backlog shipping

July 4 (AM): I will post to the list a link to 2 PDF files. One is a list of 
outstanding Assembled modules, the other kits in the backlog. These will be 
by First name/Last initial. The 2 lists will be what *I* have in my records. 
If you disagree, please let me know by July 6th. Also, if you are going to 
be gone in July and either want to hold off shipping or ship to another 
address, let me know *now*. I know Europe like August holidays, but let's 
waiting a few weeks to worry about that :)

July 6 - 11: this is be *100% of the time* kit backlog build and ship. NO 
assembled modules, NO MOTM 2.0 order will be shipped. JUST KITS. The '700 
panels are in process, these kits will ship *later* in July. I have '190 
panels on order, these kits may ship the following week depending on the 
panel arrival. MANY of the kits will have new pots and pots w/the "chicklet" 
board (replaces blue Bourns panel pots). I will have a generic PDF file/link 
posted that explains (with photos) how to replace the Bourns pots with the 
new pot/pc board (it's not that hard). The MOTM-800 EG will *still use* the 
Bourns pots (because they are pcb mounted).

July 13-18: this will be 30% shipping assembled backlog/MOTM 2.0 and 70% in 
R&D of new modules. Also shipping any kits that didn't make it out the door.

Additional kits? - there *may be* a *few* kits unspoken for AFTER everyone 
has been shipped (orders cancelled, etc). If so, I will place then in the 
cart and send out a notice to the list ~ July 16th. The pricing of these 
kits *will increase* due to my cost increases over the last 2 1/2 years 
since the kits were last offered for sale (except the current power supply 
kits).

I'm anxious to get all of the old orders shipped and have more time to work 
on new modules.

Paul S.
