@zapta Gift card code sent via Chat.

Thanks a million for this.

Hi everybody, when you purchase the gift card, please purchase at amazon.com and not at at local amazon sites. I believe that any amazon account should be able to login to http://amazon.com.

@zapta Beautiful!

@zapta

Mine arrived.

Thanks much.

The color of the case doesn't match my eyes but that's OK.

And I cannot find the manual. It wasn't in the box. You do have one don't you?

Seriously though, where do I go to read about using this little gem?

Thanks again.

@fcwilt, you can find documentation in this page https://github.com/zapta/simple_stepper_motor_analyzer . If anything is not clear, please let me know an I will update.

Basically you go from screen to screen using the right/left arrows. On the home page you will also see an icon that leads to the settings screen.

Some screens have additional features such as run/stop or scale (tap on the chart to toggle, there should be some visual indication such as text change if the tap changed anything). The trash can icon clears the data.

BTW, it got to Twitter Noticeable current degradation at high speed. https://twitter.com/LukesLaboratory/status/1410670399705202695

It's called Greenery, was the color of the year 2017.

I got it from Filacube, I like their filaments.

Code is in our existing chat

Hi everybody, the first batch of 11 seems to go smooth so far and we established the shipping rates to the US ($9) and to Europe ($16), which mean that total cost is $39 for the US and $46 to Europe. For other places it will be $30 + US post office shipping rate.

The next batch is almost ready and should go out in next week (expecting 9 units). After that, plan to have at least one more batch (expecting 10 units, ordered today parts from China).

I went over this thread and my IM inbox and collected the names of people that were interested to get one in order of request. If you are still interested, please send me a message with your shipping address.

@zapta

Is there any possibility to sign up on the wait list?I like to have one of those analyzer

Thanks

zapta · 4 Jul 2021, 17:53

@sotidii, yes, please do, and make sure to purchase at http://amazon.com, and not from international amazon websites. (no need to create a new account, international accounts are good at http://amazon.com).

I do have 9 units ready. Shipping boxes are on on order, should arrive in few days.

@1ri, I added you to the list.

CCS86 · 5 Jul 2021, 01:22

Gift card sent, thanks!

@zapta

It seems to me that @duke23 is me and there was a small mistake in the nickname but I sent you a gift card and shipping address

zapta · 5 Jul 2021, 05:50

@dudek23, yes, that's you. I copied it manually and didn't understand why the forum software didn't convert it to a link.

Sotidii · 5 Jul 2021, 12:28

@zapta Gift card sent, OK?

This will be so helpfull for me.

zapta · 7 Jun 2021, 22:03

5 units were shipped today to the people below. Should arrive with 1-2 weeks in the US and 2-4 weeks internationally.

For the next people in line for this batch, if you are still interested please send me via IM you shipping info. Otherwise will move to next people.

After this batch I plan to have at least one more batch of 9 (already have parts on order). Not sure if/when will do additional batches to fill the demand, but will help anybody that want to make them, including commercially, which is relatively simple if you are handy with electronics. Could also be a great Kickstarter campaign since the R&D is done and free.
