Anyone have an extra breakout board they are willing to sell me?  I like this design but don't need 5 for my Lethal Weapon 3 project

I have some but postage will probably kill the savings.

 

@dzorbas May have some left but you’d have to double check with him.

Ok. Thanks. The connectors are on back order at Digi Key and Mouser. Estimated six weeks wait.

I just placed an order for five boards from PCBWay.  Estimating a one week delivery after 3 days of production.  I also ordered the BOM components from DigiKey.  DigiKey (and Mouser) have one of the connectors on back order and it will be middle of October estimated delivery.  I only need one of these five boards.  If anyone needs a board let me know I have four available once I receive all the components and assemble.  It looks like they will be $15 plus shipping (estimate).  I prefer shipping to USA only to cut down on the hassle factor.  Sidenote:  I am a pilot and not an electronics supplier so flexibility and patience please.

Could have helped you out as I still have a bunch with all the necessary components. Not that I'm trying to selling them individually as they get shipped when I sell a display. I'm in Canada so sending one your way wouldn't have been an issue.

 

Looks like you are good at this point.

Thanks for the offer. I’d have snagged one. However I enjoy the process of building up something new so no big loss.

I just received my five boards from PCBWay.  I have three extra.  I anyone needs 1 to 3 boards I will mail to you for $8 plus shipping.  I have the components to build the boards up on order.  However the connectors are back ordered until middle of October.  If you want a complete board and can wait I will be glad to build it up and ship.  Cost will increase of course.  

[bushav]

I’ve got a few built up and available for $15 plus shipping. These are left over from the minimum order I was required to place. 
 

The board works great for tapping 12 and 5 volts.

Nice work!! This looks great and should prove to be more reliable than cable crimping as it sometimes can lose the -12v.  Dont ask how i know!!

I have extra DE/Sega power taps/adapters for sale in the US if anyone is looking. I ended up making a larger lot than I needed because it was a better value to buy in larger volume. 

 

$15 per assembled adapter

$9 for unassembled adapter (includes PCB and connectors)

$5 for power cable, made using crimp and stuff connectors and 18 gauge wire, tell me you length preference and what connectors/keys you want

$4.50 for USPS first class shipping (will not ship outside of the US) for up to 5 adapters

 

PM me if you want one (or more...)
