New for Spring 08!

Post by brentp »

Here are some new things we've been working on this spring.

MJLJ V4

What started as a necessary migration to a new microcontroller ended up with just- ahem- a 'few more' changes- so now we're testing new firmware and a new board design.

Hard Rev Limiter production

We did a minor update to the hard rev limiter in advance of production. We adjusted the board size to fit V3 and V4 cases, and added in pads for a through-hole transistor, since the SOT-23 transistor is just too tiny and annoying to hand mount.

Lighting

Need something to do with those user-defined outputs? Here are a couple of choices- one is a dual LED cluster, the other a 5 stage sequential shift light which will use up all of your outputs.

The dual LED cluster comprises a ring of ultra-bright blue LEDs, with an inner ring of red. The LEDs overloading the camera's sensor, so it was a bit hard taking a picture of them while illuminated.

The 5 stage cluster will combine ultra-bright green, yellow and red LEDs. Pictures forthcoming!

As soon as we get the flat rate shipping working in the store!

Here are a couple of pictures of the sequential array- if you don't have a use for your outputs this could be a fun addition.

About 1.1 x 1.2" square on the dual LED cluster.

These should be up in our store as we've finally figured out the Priority mail flat rate envelope. $11 USD shipping with tracking!
