[Ovmsdev] OVMS v3.1 Availability

Tue Apr 3 11:53:41 HKT 2018

FYI:

The first 80 modules have been shipped by Fasttech. They should start to arrive to end users later this week.

The remaining 20 modules will be shipped by Fasttech later this week. At around that same time, I will get stock of 10xEU and 10xUS. If anyone urgently needs these, let me know.

Fasttech have also updated their listings with the latest photographs of the final version (including serial number sticker).

Regards, Mark.

Wait a couple of weeks to ensure no hardware issues (either design and production) - if ok, then proceed with a larger second batch. I still think that is a reasonable plan, so would mean the next batch go ahead would be probably mid April, with available early to mid May. From then onwards, we can keep plenty in stock.
