would be neat to offer a full kit or bare pcb.
Very curious of the pricing. Would be great for portable builds where you need 3 channels rather then only 2. I'm interested.
Count me in please.
As I said, depending on the price, I may be interested in 2 bare pcbs![]()
Interested Rob..
count me in for 10 +/- Pcs of bare PCB! - depending on the pricing
Hoping the footprint is small

Just a quick update
I have been looking at this and have a modded circuit based as much as possible on the original, traced onto a 55x51mm pcb. It could be smaller but in the spirit of this project/thread I have kept it to a single sided through hole pcb, so no vias and no links. The reason for this is that it will make it easy for anyone with any skill level of electronics to build and whether we do make a pcb or not (its very likely we will) then there is still the option to etch a board at home for those who want to try. Plus the board has fixing holes in the corners for easy mounting.
It now has slow start and beam suppress and I have made 2 test PCBs - if I get a chance to drill them today I will, and then once its built and tested so I know its good I will post the drawings and get a proper quote on the pcbs but a rough guess on the PCB will be around £2 each.
As per the spirit of the project anyone can use the drawings for their own personal use, but not for commercial purposes.
