Kit Delivery Delayed

by Rajeev Piyare

Hello all!

It’s been a few weeks since our last update. We originally estimated delivery of the Conexio Stratus kit and the shields would start on the end of May. That schedule was based on having all the components in stock, manufacturing, and testing completed by the end of April. We did manage to complete the manufacturing and assembly of the Stratus kit, and the boards we already shipped by our partner PCBWay from China. However, due to mishandling, FedEx lost track/ability to locate the package in their warehouse since April 13, and is trying to investigate. So far, no concrete feedback has been provided. We have filed the lost package claim hoping to recover the losses.

To circumvent this, we have already started a new order of PCB manufacturing and assembly, so the boards will be completed by the end of June 2022. Due to these factors, it is unlikely that we will be able to ship Conexio Stratus to the backers until the end of July 2022 at the earliest.

This is not the news that we hoped to share today, but it is our responsibility to inform our backers in a timely manner and provide the shipment update.

We would again like to thank you for your support, and apologies if today’s news disappoints many of you. Some things are just out of our control!

We will update you soon with the new shipment date after we receive the finished boards.

Thanks

-Rajeev
