I have been tied up on other things, but my new "reflow oven" (i.e. electric skillet

) is here and will be put to use here in a day or two. I should be able to get them all out next week.

All LED and lense only orders have shipped. All those that have ordered LEDs, lenses, AND drivers (like your order neelix) will ship starting later this week.

Agreed. It's like Christmas Eve and you can't get to sleep... Especially since no one is sure that they're getting a shipment from the first batch or if they'll have to wait a few more weeks. THAT'S like being in line when you're dividing up for teams for dodge ball - PICK ME, PICK ME!

He still has to test all the sunpod fixtures before he sends them out as well. 2 weeks sounds like a miracle if you ask me.

I'm not trying to be a pain, but whats the status with the 12" satellites? Everyone has been bugging you about the lenses, led's, drivers... but I haven't seen anyone ask about the fixtures. If someone has then I apologize. It is kind of a pain to read through 29 pages looking for something specific haha.

sorry, so what exactly is the status for those who ordered leds and drivers? has the shipment you got in last week shipped out? just wondering....

A handful of orders made it out last week, and a few more at the begining of this week. I was hoping to get a good chunk out today, but my house got hit bad by a storm that rolled through SE Michigan, and we have been scrambling to get the damage assesed and water cleared up. I will try and get some orders out tomorrow.
My vacation is screwed, so I will be home next week and will get more orders out when I can. Because of the damage, I have to put all work on Sunpod actinic and Satellite retros on hold until I can get back on my feet. The Pico lamps are all complete and just need to finish shipping those. I will try and get things out to you guys as fast as I can, but realize I'm going to be pretty tied up for a week or so managing this mess. If anyone feels the need to back out, I totally understand and I will issue a full refund for the products ordered.
Right now, I need your patience.
Thanks everyone.
