New PCB Boards

[Almighty Loaf]

I know that the new batch of PCB kits will be available for preorder in three weeks but I was wondering if the safe shutdown board will be implemented in to the new boards. Helder said he is working on something new but I'm not sure what. I also want to buy one of the safe shutdown boards before they sellout and I also want to buy one of the PCB combos but I don't want the new one to have the safe shutdown built into it in case that was the new thing Helder was talking about.But for all I know he could be working on a project that's completely different.

So if anyone knows if the new PCB's will have the safe shutdown built into them, please let me know.


Thanks

The only one that could answer that is Helder. I would plan on future revisions having more built in features and probably at a higher cost.

Currently the safe Shutdown board is an additional board that's soldered to the original PCB.

The new Preorders will have the built in battery meter circuit, the current boards are for the people who bought from the 2 batches who wanted to easily add the features of the battery meter and safe shutdown. HoolyHoo and I have been throwing around ideas of another feature to add with the board but I'll save that info for when we have something to show.

Thanks, I just didn't want to waste my money on a battery meter PCB just to get a PCB with the battery meter built in.
