[lukeluke]

Hi,
news ?

when arrive the new RA ?

will have the wifi built-in ?

[rimai]

I have one in stock
I'm working on getting some more made.
No built-in wifi. It would just cause confusion.

What are the feature differences between the RA and the RA+?

[rimai]

RA+ has 256K of code memory compared to 32K on the standard.

Wish there was an announcement thread or an 'in development' section, although I'm not really on the forums much which may be the reason I've never heard of the RA+ until now.

[rimai]

We are getting threre
Baby steps...
I can't invest in mass producing all the stuff I wanted to.
I have only produced (hand crafted) a couple dozen of those up to now.
So, I do a little at a time and we are at a point in time of the RA journey that the RA+ is becoming more and more a mandatory requirement.
In the past, we were able to wing it with the features selection, but it's becoming a lot harder to pack all the cool stuff that you guys created

So, it may turn into a regular product that can be purchased at the web store soon.

any possibility of upgrading actual reef angel?

[rimai]

Yes, you can swap out boards.

What is the cost of the board for an upgrade? I just got mine about a month ago and now that I am really starting to work with it the limited memory is becoming troublesome.

Thanks

[rimai]

It's $75 for a swap out head unit board.

[psyrob]

Is this going to be in the store? Or do we have to special order from you, like you will provide one at a time?

[rimai]

I currently have none in stock.
If you are interested, please PM me.

[BWolff]

rimai it looks like I am too new to PM you. What is the lead time on a plus board? Do you just send me the board and I handle the swap?

Thanks

[rimai]

You need 2 posts to be able to PM.

Wish I knew about this last week.

[deva]

oh glad I found this thread, as I am really really looking in to a RA.
but one question why such small memory? even with the upgrade it seams not that much??
granted the code cant be all that big. but with the growing needs of the reef community I could see it getting full.

OH BTW this is my first post here...

[Seedlessone]

I would say we are very far off from using 256k any time soon. It's plenty.

I'm interested, pm incoming

[lucho]

So am I . Can you please pm price?

[carlii]

I am looking to buy one this week. Ok, this is just a dummy post so that I can PM you.

[rimai]

They are now available at the web store for pre-order

[JohnnyL]

I'm ready to order a Reef Angel, and feel I'll need the extra memory that the Plus offers. What's the timeframe for fulfillment on a RA + PWM? Thanks.

[rimai]

about 2 weeks or so.

[JohnnyL]

Thanks Roberto. I think I'll just order the regular for now and worry about the upgrade down the road. I have a tank in immediate need of control!
