Onju Voice PCB group buy, Central Texas

Copied from another thread for their group buy in the UK:

So first some disclaimers for you to note and understand;

  1. This is a private group buy and not in any way endorsed or warranted by Home Assistant or Nabu Casa.
  2. I am not the designer or maintainer of Onju Voice.
  3. I have no affiliation with PCBWay.
  4. This is for UK addresses only.

Is that enough of a get out for me do you think, or do I need more?

So, I’m proposing that I gather sufficient funds to make a group purchase of assembled PCBs, place an order with PCBWay and then distribute the assembled PCBs to the group.

So my initial ask is who in the UK would potentially like one or more of these? No money yet and I’m not holding anyone to their initial response. Once i get an idea of quantity I’ll make a more formal request from PCBWay for costs and we’ll see where we go from there.

I have already gotten a quote for 10, since I currently have a home mini in every room. I only need 8. If anyone wants to jump on board in CTX please send me a message and I will start a google sheet everyone in the group has access to to see updated statuses for the group buy. The more orders we can bundle together the cheaper it should be.

I have received the quotes for quantities in increments of 10 up to 50. I am not sure why the quote for 20 is more than 10 (per each), but the rest are lower respective to how many are purchased.

Attached is the quotation of 10, 20, 30, 40, & 50 sets, pls check.
And the lead time is all about 22-26 days.
