Well, I didn’t miss this falcon christmas forum group buy from Andy (harrison0550) before it ended, so that is certainly good news. In fact, this is going to be running until Feb 21st and has already gone over the 500 board break point to drop each unit by $0.50. This still means $11.50 per assembled board, but this would be one of those times where spending some cash can save hassle and time down the road. I have always believed in spending the cash to have the right tool for the job as trying to open a paint can with a hammer can be messy!
As you can see it is a single power input board with 6 fused outputs. Most people might say… “why don’t I just run my own wire and save the money?” In my opinion it would depend on how far away the psu is from the points you have to power inject. If you have a ways to go (like the top of a megatree), wouldn’t you rather run one pair of wires up instead of 6 pairs? I would, especially if I am looking at injection numbers that would require more than one of these boards. I think the same would apply to running across the yard to a location where you have several elements but no good place to put a larger psu.
