New BrickRPM Dual VR Conditioner Board!

Post by Fred »

We're out of stock of the current BrickRPM design! Apologies to anyone who wants one. A new slightly updated design is on the near horizon, and I'll update this thread with some photos of the new board once they're finished and I have them in my hot little hands.

Thread about the final stock of the current model is here: viewtopic.php?f=14&t=2080


---------------------------------------------------------------------- Original post:

I'm proud to introduce the product of many weeks of drawn out work! A new tiny VR input board suitable for DIY FreeEMS builders and MegaSquirters alike!

For a full run down be sure to visit the product page on the BrickEMS.com website: http://brickems.com/brickrpm/

I put quite a bit of effort into laying out your options for you, see the comparison page too: http://brickems.com/brickrpm/comparison/

Contact, VR "how it works", and installation are just place holders for the time being.

There is limited stock available for the short term, so I'm only interested in direct word of mouth sales, preferably to people that I know and trust.

All comments and feedback welcome, either here, or via PM.

Thanks Dan! :-) I hope it comes in handy for some FreeEMSers wanting to do TA card setups!

Comparison page updated! http://brickems.com/brickrpm/comparison

Added Zeal board, Symtech board, NCV1124 chip, corrected some details, etc.

I wouldn't worry too much. The competition isn't very good. A few things incorrect with it, that of which I won't bother mentioning.

The BrickRPM board is still superior in my opinion. :-)

Factually: It's smaller and cheaper.
Subjectively: It's prettier.
Practically: It doesn't have mounting holes.
Honourably: BrickEMS.com did a small board first...

I'd like one! PM me your paypal with shipping information and I'll send over payment.

I plan on using this on my CubeECU, which, being breadboard based, will take advantage of the conveinent DIP-8 package.

Stencil arrived today, will make a batch soon, but need to find some cleaning fluid and wait for ultrasonic cleaner to arrive. Will mass produce a batch then. Thanks for your open support, appreciated! :-)
