Just to get ballpark ETA, are they going to Canada / North America by boat or by plane?

In your opinion, what is the most economical way to order the various parts (as listed in the BOM) needed for this kit? Overall it is a small volume of parts required, and I don't happen to have any on hand. You can PM me specific links or sites. I'm located in Canada.

Is there any technical difference between this badge of KIT and the batch before or is it just a layout thing (box than tube)?


Yes, this is considered a different version than previous sensors, with more design reviews and considerations than just the package format.

Just curious if anyone else is considering using an Intel Galileo board as a stand alone low power Linux host for the sensor? Should be easy to place it anywhere with a mini PCI Express WIFI for connectivity.

I'll post about BOM.
It will work with USB Host with Linux/Windows OS's on board so with RPi also.


What would be the best way to order the parts required once a final BOM is determined?
Also interested to know if the enclosure is designed for the LCD dimensions in the preliminary BOM?

Hi Cosmicboss,

What are you recommending to have updated?

Welcome to the forums to the last few members who posted above.

To start off, the best way to find out about potential future orders is to check the news forum periodically (unless admins state otherwise). Currently, there is no "waiting list" for future orders.

Generally, a post is made when they are gearing up to take (pre) orders.

Right now, to my knowledge, the organizers are awaiting for shipments of some of the remaining parts for the kits, and making sure all is good before shipping them out.

I will also add - the people organizing this, as well as the participating grid of users are volunteers. Their approach to date appears to be keeping the devices as affordable as possible. It is true that they could be mass produced as a more complete unit, but the price would also increase accordingly.

Does the V2.60 detector work ok with Rpi and similar small boards running Linux variants?
