Yummy, I will still have to wait for the EU batch.

Glad to hear that the process is smoothing out for you.

Is the shipping order roughly the same as the order of purchases? I think I was one of the first people to send my payment and was just curious if that meant I should be expecting a package soon? No rush, just curious, and excited.

SALES QUEUE - 945 paid

...

I plan on making ~~1000~~ about 1200 (250 specific for Europe via bitshopper.de) of the 2Pacs

Honestly I might end up having to make more of these, they're selling so fast. I gave the minion some pointers and tried a new process today that, between the two things, solve a lot of assembly problems and pretty much double the speed I can get sticks finished from the bench. If I can get it to where chips go down with near 100% reliability will be really good for Biggies. Part of the issue is paste wetting, and a lot of that is using the tail end of an old jar of paste. The new process with new paste should be pretty good.

I'm also going to dust off my beefy USB hub project. Klintay shot me some info I was having a hard time finding which should help out, and last week I came up with some ideas to simplify things while still getting the features I wanted. So that's fun. Nothing's even on paper yet, got other priorities, but it'll get there.

Sure would be handy if we had a hub thread for this kind of thing, instead of the sales thread.

Thanks for the update.
I don't know where my 6 sticks are placed in your queue but I made some silly contraption while waiting the new toys to show up.

That is exactly the kind of thing i was thinking of doing.....until i threw my old S3 case out Roll Eyes

This is awesome, I was thinking of doing something similar in a S3 case. I was thinking I could mount the hub and RPi right in there, that way it is just the wall plug and ethernet plug.

There is a large block of heatsink in the middle.
All the sticks will be mounted on this then connected to the hub via 6-inch Male to Female USB extension cable.
I don't know the quality of these cables so there could be some amp loss but I guess I have to play around to find out.

Ah...This would work (most likely).
Cheers

I came in over the weekend and got a bunch more sticks tested. Also tested out a new assembly procedure that should pick up the overall pace, which is definitely a good thing.

Anyways I have to go by the post office today anyway so I'm shipping out the next small orders. This makes the first 8 small orders, total of 47 sticks, shipped by day's end. The next 200 will be stashed for the first large order. By end of next week I should have that first large order done and be tearing into the next however many small orders. I'll have to retool for bitshopper sticks before long, so that'll slow up the domestic-order pace a bit.

Thanks for the update.

thanks...cute..., however, you will be cooling mostly the hub, not the sticks themselves with this setup as they will protrude much higher than the fan plane.
