Ah, it seems as though it won't let it even add it to your cart if you're outside the US. I'm planning on having it shipped to family in the states, so I guess you have to use a vpn for that.

If you're using a VPN to order the batteries but they are going to someone here in the USA that's fine but if you or anyone is planning on using logistics companies to re-mail things out especially to the countries I banned sales to like the Asian countries I will ban you and your email and refund you.

Someone tried this today and needless to say he will not be getting a kit through me, also you could have emailed me to talk about this personally instead of making it public. :roll:

-2 short pieces of wire for the speaker. 30 gauge silicone coated is recommended.
I have pre-ordered the pi kit and in the video it was said that no wires have to be soldered. Is this true? No problem if it is or isn't, I just want to be prepared. Thanks!

Only for the speaker as mentioned here and on my site where you bought the kit.

The batteries on Helder's site are sold out. Would there be additional ones coming or should I go for the suggested alternative?

Thanks

Well, I'm afraid that there will be no second round for the USA, only for Europe / UK... So I guess you could better get the alternative, or be patient and see if there will be a second time for the USA.

According to Helder, there will be a second round of batteries for US. Timeline is hopefully late February for them to be able to get ordered. EU people should be able to order theirs around the same time also.

US people can join an email wait list on the battery page to be notified when more batteries are in stock: https://heldergametech.com/shop/mintypi ... 3-battery/
