Pre-ordered, seems like I am starting my Pi3 build just at the right time!
Now all I have to do is wait ((;

The PCB maker has the boards made they are waiting on 2 final packages to start assembling. Maybe in 2 weeks or so I should have the boards here.

Don't contact me about obtaining my board files (as you will not get them). If my Boards or PCB Kits are sold out, they will be restocked as soon as I can get them and there is demand for them. You can join the mailing list on my Website to be notified when they are available.

This looks great..!!

I'm currently designing a new project (in CAD given) but given the lead time and lack of mounting holes of your board, is there any chance you can post the CAD dimensions of the board layout?

I know you said the board size is 23.5mm x 34mm but it'd be nice to know the position of the USB connector, pads etc.

EDIT: This is my best guess so far :)

I can provide you a DXF but what about the lead time? also your image isn't working, try uploading to the forum or use a image hosting site.

Sorry Helder - what I meant about lead time was that given it's going to be until mid-late September before these are available, it would make progressing my design hard - hence my request for the CAD.

Anyway, I've fixed my upload so hopefully it's showing up now..

Is there a reason why my order got cancelled and refunded?

Hi Helder,
Thanks for your psu. I still have an external power supply with 5.45 v and 4a, can I use it or should I buy another? Or what would be the maximum input voltage? Sorry for my stupid questions in bad English.

You mean you plan to use that to charge and play the PSU? the PSU is safe up to 8v on input to charge BUT I DO NOT RECOMMEND IT!!.

That charger is safe to use though.

for everyone else the boards are almost finished assembling, I would say maybe the first week (midweek) of September I should get them and start shipping.
