This Coop is for the PixelNet Zeus Controller (SSCs & Hub).
*********************************************************************************
Please read this post completely before posting in this Coop.
This Coop will have only 2 options. It will be for a complete kit including PCB and parts.
You will receive all the parts you need to build a complete PixelNet Zeus controller.
Kit 1 – 16 String Zeus Controller (Zeus 16)
Kit 2 – 8 String Zeus Controller (Zeus 8)
*********************************************************************************
The Coop will be limited to 400 kits.
This Coop will close on September 15, 2013 at 5:00 PM Pacific Time or when it fills its limit of 400 kits.
Full Payment is expected when the Coop is closed. All members will receive PMs with details or will be directed by post how to pay once the Coop closes.
Please get your PayPal payments in as soon as you get the Coop invoice PM as no orders can be placed until all payments have been received.
By joining this Coop you also agree that the Coop manager, DLA (as a board to also include all administrators, moderators, and members) shall not be held for any liability. You are joining this Coop at your own risk.
As with any Coop, this Coop is subject to the forum rules. These rules can be reviewed using the following link.

*********************************************************************************
Here is the pricing breakdown based on the initial quotes.
Pricing is in US Dollars.
We have a base goal of 200 Zeus 16 kits and 50 Zeus 8 kits. This goal allows the cost per unit to drop low enough to make it cost effective to run the coop. Below this number we will not make the order.
Zeus 16 String Kit With PCB and parts
Per Kit At Qty 200 - $55.82
Zeus 8 String Kit With PCB and parts
Per Kit At Qty 50 - $37.38
Pricing does not include Paypal fees or coop fees or shipping.
This is an estimate. As always higher numbers reduce pricing and lower numbers increase pricing.
PICs will be programmed
*********************************************************************************
Shipping will be by US Postal Service Priority Mail Flat Rate boxes. All orders will require at least a medium flat rate box since the PCBs will not fit in a smaller box.
Domestic: $11.98
Canada and Mexico: $40.95
All Others: $59.95
If you wish to have insurance on your package, it is your responsibility to choose the amount and look up the cost to add. You must add this to your PayPal payment and in the comments explain you paid for insurance and how much. We cannot be held responsible for your package once accepted at the post office and we have a receipt of shipment if it is not insured.
*********************************************************************************
Post with the quantity you wish in this thread. Please do not post questions or your thoughts in the coop thread. Start a new thread in the correct area for these. Coop threads are strictly for people requesting orders. If you later wish to change your quantity please post again clearly stating that this is an update to a previous order and how many you wish it to be now.
Thanks,
John

Thanks in advance. Russell

Payment PMs are going out today.
Please pay as soon as possible. There is one vital part that has a long lead time and the sooner we get it ordered, the sooner it will get here.
If you have any questions, send me a PM.
John
-
Payment sent! Thanks for running this!
-
I have had a couple of payments from the paypal mobile app and they don't include addresses. I don't know if you have to add your address or if it won't include your address. I have refunded those payments. Please check to make sure that you check Goods as type and make sure that your address is included.
Thanks,
John
-
Payment sent. My new Paypal screen doesn't seem to have a "goods" check box anymore but it does ask if shipping address should be included so hopefully you will still be able to print the mailing label. If this causes any problems please let me know. Thanks again for all your hard work to keep the rest of us blinking and flashing ;D
-
Payment sent. I likewise no longer have the ability to select "Goods" as what I am paying for.
-
Payment sent, my account is the same no goods box. If there's a problem let me know. Thanks again for the coop.

$$ sent. Thanks for doing this.

John, I believe that paypal has changed the layout of their screens since the last coop was run, and this may cause problems...don't know for sure.
The "BUY" page now defaults to "personal". In order to choose goods and get the address list, mailing address, etc screens that most of us are used to, you now have to choose the "business" tab.
Mike E.
-
Perhaps those that don't have the goods anymore choose to streamline with ebay?
I still very much have the goods option today.
Payment sent, with an address!
-
Payment sent
I found by the user name a link to the classic view or something to that effect, I can't get it to show the new layout now. It now always is showing the tabs with send money with the I'm paying for goods and services radio selector.

Payment window is closed.
Please check the 2nd and 3rd posts of this thread and make sure you are paid.
We have a lot of members that did not pay or backed out of this coop. I will do some calculations and see what we need to do to make this coop work.
John
-
I cannot remember ever seeing a coop with that many non pays. There is still some demand out there, but I wonder if it would be enough to close the gap. Good luck with figuring this one out.

I suspect that this coop took too long to materialize (through no one's fault).
If you don't already have your assembled gear in hand, it will be difficult to make it happen in the remaining 7 weeks.
-
I think that I have to agree with Steve on both points. There were a whole lot of newbies in this coop as well.

+1, I'm sweating even being ABLE to have a show this winter, no matter how small. The list closed up pretty good on payments in the last few days, and a quick peeks makes it look like we are still over 250 units.
-
Hello,
Well I know were all getting busy as lights on is not real far off. For me I was hoping to use one of them but it was more of a backup as well. Hoping for good news from Rainlover soon on this.
I counted 239 on the 16 channel units but perhaps we had a few extra people pay today too.
-
Sometimes you can offer up the unpaid kits to any member who makes a paypal payment in the next day or two? I've never seen so many non payers.
-
I think that I have to agree with Steve on both points. There were a whole lot of newbies in this coop as well.
+1 Might not get to them this year but I paid for mine.
I hope this comes out the right way... We hit the base units, so I say we cut the non-payers and get this going. Since the Zeus is new gear, folks will need ample time to learn how to build and use and time is limited. There's not even a manual for them yet. It's not quite like running a last minute COOP for existing gear like the aether II where the build is well documented...
Thanks for running the COOP John and RJ for creating the Zeus!!!
-
It may make sense to re-open the coop IF the coop closed because all slots had filled.
But everyone had their chance, and the coop ran the whole time period -- so there won't likely be new folks trying to get in.
I agree, lets cut off the non-payers and move forward. <yk..
-
I have requested new quotes for the PCBs and getting prices from suppliers.
With the number of kits that were ordered, we were able to reach some quantity discounts. With all of the nonpays, we don't reach those quantities. While it is still cheaper to buy 5000 of a part rather than 4600, the price has to be divided by fewer members, so the cost goes up.
I am still optimistic that we can do this coop at the price we quoted.
I will keep you posted. We may open this back up for a day or 2 and see if we can get any more members to buy.
John
-
I would be willing to take 2 of the Zeus 8 Kits....
-
Thanks for the update!
I swore this COOP was gonna max out in a few hours and there would be people flipping out they didn't get in...
-
You can add on (1) Zeus 8 to my order and I'll pay you today for it. I believe that covers the unpaid Z8 kits.
-
i will take one z16. i don't have plan to use it this christmas but I might next year..hopefully :). I still have the ssc v1 from the first coop untouch <fp.

You can add another Z16 to my order if it will help....Just PM me with the new amount...
Bill A.
-
I have calculated everything 5 or 6 times and everything is going to work out okay. The price of the Z16 is up by $.65 each, but I scrounged around my office and shop and found some leftover labels and enough shipping and packing materials to almost offset the increase.
I am going to order the parts today. Hopefully, the lead times on 2 backorders will be less than stated.
I appreciate all the offers to purchase more controllers.
I will keep you all posted.

Let us know how it goes, I will be happy to send in a $1 donation to the cause. I never want to see a coop manage take a hit. I am expecting to see a lot of +1's on this.

Update.
All parts have been ordered. Some parts have arrived. More are due this week. There are a couple of backorders that won't show up until the first part of November.
We have a big dinner on Sunday, So the dining room sorting table is not available until next Monday.

Thanks for all the updates!!
Wow, I knew I was taking a risk going with the Zeus this year ... but I can feel some serious late night soldering in November coming my way ! Thanks again for doing this! <res.
-
Update!
We have good news and more good news.
One of the backordered parts that was supposed to ship on 11/8 is now scheduled to ship on 10/31 from Mouser.
The other backordered part that was supposed to ship on 11/1 was shipped today from Digikey.
We still have all the PICs and PCBs on order. I will let you know when I get a delivery date for them.
Sorting will start tonite.

John
-
Update.
All of the parts that I have received have been sorted. I am supposed to receive the last of the back ordered parts on Wednesday. I am still waiting for the programmed PICs, the PCBs and some fuses.
We are at the mercy of the manufacturers.
If you absolutely need your Zeus controller for this years show, please let me know and I will do everything I can do to get it to you. I can make no promises.
John
-
I really DON'T need mine for this year so you can move me more toward the end of the list.
-
Please move me to the back of the list, but in front of tbone321. (jk :) )
I've got the hardware I need for this year's show.

You can put me at the end if the list also.

I have active hubs if necessary but no ssc's. if it's not looking like it will make it for this years show, let me know so I can order ssc's. I bought the hubs and then saw the progress of the zues and didn't buy any ssc's. if at all possible to get it for this years show it would awesome! thanks for your hard work at running this coop.

Just remember that the Zeus doesn't have anywhere near the range of the hub and seperate controllers.

I can wait. No problem.

Taking a year off to work on other projects so add me to the send last pile.

you can send mine when you can I am good for this year :)

John,
Understood that no promise can be made. I am relying on Zeus for my show this year, and I won't have a show if it doesn't show this year. If you can put me close to the beginning of the deliveries line, you'll make my neighborhood happy ;)
If it doesn't work out, we'll know you gave it your best shot and that it is not your fault.
Thanks for everything.
Francois

Follow up on previous post (I didn't find the modify icon anymore?):
I really only need one, the other would be nice, but won't break the show if it isn't there. If it makes things easier, I'll pay for double shipping and can wait for the second one way longer.
Thanks,
Francois
-
Yes - I need mine for this years show.
Thank you for considering those of us who are show dependant on the Zeus.
I appreciate everything you have done for us managing this COOP.
Thank you,
Pete

Thanks

Thanks again for running a great co-op Rainlover!

OK to send mine whenever you like. I won't them this year.

It's not do or die for me however it would definitely help to have it for this season.
Thanks for your hard work!

Sir, please ship my order for this year's season. Thank you for all the hours of work have put into this COOP and the extra effort in getting some of the kits out this season.

I can do without. I have enough ssc and hubs.

Still haven't built the dozen SSC 4 kits that I have so I guess I can wait. :)
-
you can move us to the bottom also. No need for this years show. I will have to wait for after christmas to order my flex strips anyway.
-

SSCv4 and Zeus do not go together, btw. SSC functionality is built into the Zeus board making SSC unnecessary.
Hang onto the SSCs however, with a hub you can reach further distances from the board and power supply than you'll achieve with the Zeus.

Must be a bad joke when I have to explain it, but I meant I have more than enough controllers for this year without the Zeus. :-[
-
I am hoping to pull off a last minute mega tree and would need a Zeus to run it. Please add me to the BOTTOM of the need list and if happens great, if not, it's cool.
What ever you do, make sure Scott (taybrynn) get his!
THANK YOU!!! <res.
-
Hey Zwiller I didn't put up my pixel tree last year until mid December and only had one sequence using it to start, but I'm glad I did it even though late because it gave me some experience to use for planning this year. Now if I could just sequence like you do......
-
I won't need it for this year either..
-
I can wait until after the season as well. Thank you for your hard work!

Update,
The PCBs, fuses and some PICs have arrived. We are still short about 4000 PICs.
We should be able to ship countrollers to everyone that said they need them for this year. The rest of the controllers will go out in the order that they were paid.
We will start packaging tomorrow night. Hopefully, some units will go out in the next few days.

I would need mine to do the mega tree I am adding this year. I need the Zeus to complete the project. Thank you for doing this coop this year.

Update
Most of the hot rush kits have been taken to the post office. I will get the rest out tomorrow.
It looks like the PICS will be the holdup for the rest of the kits. Microchip has changed the ship date again.
John

Thank you John. I really appreciate all the extra work you did juggling the shipping around so that those in need get them sooner (of which I am one of).
Thanks Again

BTW I love you motto and now keep telling the wife I need dance lessons.

John,
Thank you very much,
I appreciate all the time and effort you have put into this Coop. Thank you for for considering and working to get Zeus controllers to those of us who planned our light displays using these controllers.[size=78%]

Another update.
The rest of the must-have kits are going out tomorrow. I am also sending some kits out in the order they were paid.
If you have any problems or issues with your kits, send me a PM.
John
-
I hope that when you get a chance you update the list to show who's kits were shipped. I can't speak for others but I like to know when something is on the way so that I can keep an eye out for it. And of course, we need to make sure that Steve gets his ahead of me. ::)

Ditto for me what tbone321 said.
Thanks again for everything, I hope to get it together in time for thanksgiving night!

The way that I see it... there were a LOT of people that asked to go to the back of the line after you started the trend.
That puts them BEHIND you, tbone! everyone, except -- obviously me! So, I expect to be at the front of the pack after the I-NEED-IT-NOW-crowd. ;)
-
Yet another update.
All of the must-have kits have been shipped and I shipped out all of the kits that I could with the number of PICs that I had in the order that they were paid.
The list has been updated.
My wife insists that I move all of the coop stuff out of the dining room by tomorrow so she can decorate for Thanksgiving and get ready for 24 people to show up for Thanksgiving dinner.
Unless there is a new ship date from Microchip, the remainder of the PICs are not going to be here for a couple of weeks.
If anything changes, I will let you all know.

And thanks to everyone who moved to the end of the line as well I really am grateful for that and appreciate you all for it as well.
170 Hours eh? Shoot I'm looking forward to watching the show while eating a turkey sandwich! Pretty much ready to go and looking forward to it. The Zeus will tie in my 12 flex strips and I'll be good to go ;)

Now if only I could test it...

The PICs arrived at my office today.
Holy Microchip!! That is a lot of PICs.
When I get home, I will start breaking them down and getting kits put together. If murphy doesn't show up, some kits should start hitting the post office by Wednesday.
I apologize to everyone for the delay. Microchip was supposed to ship these over a month ago.
John
-
Update!
I shipped a few kits today and I will ship a few tomorrow.
We have company coming for the holidays on Saturday and I had to clear out of the dining room.
I will start shipping more kits after Christmas.
Bear with me. You will get your kits.
John
-
No problems on my end, John. Even if you got it out soon, it would sit till way after Christmas anyways!
-
John, I hope I can speak for the rest of the coop members and say we perfectly understand that this time of year is very busy so a delay ingetting the kits out is understandable. Thanks again for running the coop and thank your wife for sharing her dinning room!

Thanks again for being the first to run this coop. Is this a record for the number of participants in an initial coop?

Not even close. The initial smart string coop was off the charts. The initial offering filled up so fast that the coop manager and RJ reopened it and let it run for the full time and the numbers of both kits and members in the coop were just WOW!!

All packages have been shipped except for 1. The paypal transaction did not include an address and I have not received a reply from the member.
For future knowledge, you must designate "Goods" when you send a payment on paypal or the address won't be sent. Some of the mobile apps make it difficult to find that option and I did not check when I received the payments.
I would like to thank everyone for their patience. Enjoy your new controllers.
