AX3500

What is the expected date for availability of the enclosed AX3500, and will it cost more than the unenclosed unit?

It may be available in the second half of the year, at best.

We have already made a prototype and a drawing can be seen at <A href="dev.roboteq.com/dev1/ax3500preview.shtml" target=_blank>dev.roboteq.com/dev1/ax3500preview.shtml

Tooling for plastic injection is very expensive and we want to wait until we user feedback of the board version, and make sure that no significant changes will ever be required prior to making the commitment.

For information, there will be a small fan built into the case. It will be automatically turned on or off depending on the measured transistor temperature, which will help long term product reliability.

We would like the boxed version to be priced only marginally more than the board version, but it will be difficult to know until we are ready to go to production.

Is the non-enclosed AX3500 now shipping?
The website says Jan 15th, but the link on the ordering page goes to the wrong product (AX2850).

We ran two weeks late on that first sceduled date. We are shipping our first customers this week.

Next production run is due out in two weeks. Product is selling well and we encourage customers to place their orders early.

The "Order" button now links to the right place.
