USB Variable Power Supply Has Less Than A Day To Go

Update #13 · Jul 9, 2012 · 1 comment

Hi Everyone!

We are very excited about how well received the USB Variable Power Supply has been received.  We have backers now that include college labs, hackers, developers and plenty of individuals around the world.  We are literally counting the hours until we will know exactly how many to start producing.

With only 23 hours left, this will be the last opportunity to get the Kickstarter only version of the device.  Hopefully we will be able to put the device on retail shelves in the future.  If any of you know how we can contact the buyer at Radio Shack, we would like to get in touch and try to get the VariPower 500A on to their shelves.  And if there are any suggestions for other outlets we should contact, please let us know.

Here is the link again for easy access:

Thank you all for your support and continued involvement with our project.

Sincerely,

Brad and Mike

USB Variable Power Supply 4 Days to Go

Update #12 · Jul 6, 2012 · comment

Wow, these last few days have gone quickly.

Hopefully everyone who is still interested in getting their hands on one of these USB Variable Power Supplies has jumped over and made a pledge on our re-launch page.

Thank you all for your support.  This is very exciting and we will do our best to get these produced and shipped as quickly as possible.

Since there are only 4 days left to pledge, this is also a good time to remind anyone you know that might be interested that they are running out of time to make their pledge.

Thank you all!

Update #11 · Jul 1, 2012 · comment

Thank you everyone for your continuing support for our project.  We are thrilled that so many of you have jumped right in on our re-launch.   There are only a handfull of days left before the pledging is over and we can begin the production and shipping.  If you haven't jumped over to the re-release and you still want a USB Variable Power Supply, please do it soon.

As always, we really appreciate all of the support you have given us.

PS - don't forget, if you backed the original project and don't back the re-launch you won't get the device.  If you still want one, you have to make a pledge on the re-launch page.
