Closed ACL Strobe Mk 2 bulk buy - ends 12 September 2014

[Bird]

Balance of the goodies turned up this morning. When I finish the job I'm working on I will start packing things up. I will put 1 kit of parts together this evening as an absolute minimum to work out what postage will cost.

As of Tuesday evening .. nothing has turned up for the US/Canada folks

I put together 2 panels this afternoon and took some photos and will knock together a rough assembly guide a bit later and put it on http://auschristmaslighting.com/wiki/ACL_Strobe_Mk2 .

North America now has resistors.
Two packages down and 1 to go.

Awesome! So are they still horny after the long trip??

After the long flight they look a little more calm

Looks like the packages from Ray were returned back to him?

I noticed that yesterday as well, informed Alan, and I'm sure he will be checking into that.

All of the Australian and New Zealand strobes have shipped. Most will have got them yesterday or today. jb09 and NZlongfellow will get theirs either Monday or Tuesday.
I've soldered up 5 panels so far and they were taking me between 45 minutes and an hour depending on interruptions. Soldering them up while watching tv and answering messages in chat removed some of my need for speed. Did I mention they were horny?

Got my Christmas present Alan! Thanks a bunch.

As Yagoona said, just need to confirm the next step.

So resistor and direction of LED I can see from picture, and from looking at boards it appears I just need to connect + and - and we are good to go.

Cheers,
Rowan

Strobes, sleeves, and covers showed up.
7pm was kind of a late delivery, but they are here.
Now the counting fun starts.

Looking at the box of covers ... I can say I'm glad I didn't received the amount Alan did.
