We've launched an exciting new project of our own! Introducing the Kickstarter app for iPhone!

Update on MakersLED

Update #3 · Mar 30, 2012 · 1 comment

It doesn’t seem as though our Kickstarter funding goal will be met before the deadline of April 8th. Nevertheless, WE HAVE MADE THE LEAP INTO PRODUCTION!

Kickstarter is a great platform for launching a new product. Unfortunately, without offering the LEDs, the niche market for designer LED housings wasn’t mainstream enough to get us off the ground. With the support of a 3rd party, we have secured enough interest to move forward and purchase the tooling to create the aluminum extrusion and plastic parts.This was the biggest hurdle!

Don't worry! If the Kickstarter campaign doesn't go through and you have pledged prior to 3/30, we will provide you the same great deal. Just email andy@makersled.com with the name you used on Kickstarter, and we'll set you up.

As always, "LIKE" us on Facebook and stay tuned!

      Wow, so stocked you guys were still able to get some support and have your project take off even if it doesn't do so on Kickstarter. Can't wait to play around with the finished product.
