Behr-Bonz 2015

I hope I didn't break any rules but i left a notification on the VIC 20 face book page that the Behr-Bonz cartridge is back in production.

Could I get on the list to order a Behr-Bonz cartridge in NTSC?

How could there possibly be anything wrong with that ?

[Rylos]

Cool. Hopefully pre-orders will pick up. Again, thanks for making this happen!

PM sent!

PM sent. I likely won't be online the rest of the evening, but if you provide payment info it will be sent to you in the morning. So happy to hear these are going to be available again!

Hey eslapion,

What color PCB's did you order?

[robc]

Hi there!

Presuming there's still some available - I'd be interested in putting in an order for a PAL one too (postage to Australia)!

Hey eslapion,

What color PCB's did you order?

To keep the price of the boards low I had to use green this time.

Interesting to note is that no 2 batches of Behr-Bonz are exactly the same color.

Early 2015 ones were light blue, later ones were dark blue bordering on magenta, the very first ones in 2008 had no solder mask at all and later 2008 were light green.

[Rylos]

Ah... I have a clear case coming and was hoping for red or blue but its all good.

[eslapion]

So far 8 people have sent prepayments.

Thank you all for your support!

[Rylos]

Woot! Was hoping for a better showing but hopefully 8 will cover your expenses.

Do you have pics of all the released Behr-Bonz populated PCB's?

Also what kind of time you expect before shipping? Hopefully I didn't overlook this being discussed.

I didn't keep photos of the various versions of the board but I can tell you, if you look at past posts of this very thread, the red ones were NOT made by me.

I expect to get the boards around early August and the first shipments will occur within a few days after that.

I have both the original handmade Behr-Bonz and one of the first 50 boards with no solder mask.

Hey eslapion,

Ok. Good information. So it looks like it's going to be a great August!
