RGB LED Pixel

[JEC]

Hi Folks,

Wondering if anyone else would be interested in circuit boards for the color-changing pixel described in the DMX forum:

Pricing and board specifications are discussed somewhat in the thread listed above.

I am interested in the fully completed boards.

I might be interested in the through hole in a kit form, if it is cheaper. I would want to create soldered together strings, instead of RJ-45 connections you were mentioning.
In looking at the SMT design I guess that isn't an issue, except if they come assembled with the RJ-45s on. Maybe I am thinking this too hard.
I would be in for 10 right now I guess, perhaps more if pricing changes.

So, 10 assembled, smt, with RJ45s if I have to. Is that enough rambling?

Just got a photo from the overseas manufacturer. It's posted in the DMX forum:

Oh God I must have some of these :D :D AI

I spoke with the overseas factory late last night.

They've received the new flat-top LEDs I specified and are now re-working the boards. They say they'll be finished in three days - I interpret this to mean they're shipping to me on Thursday of this week. The package will be shipped FedEx international and should arrive in 2-3 days.

Once they arrive and are tested, I'll place the larger production order.

Lead time on my 150 pixels (plus whatever interest exists here in the forums) is said to be 20-30 days.

So the larger order arrives toward the end of October, best case.

Still working on final pricing for the larger batch.

At this point, my preference is to only order assembled and tested SMT models. As I mentioned above, there is a programming header on the circuit board, so the firmware can be changed as required.
