Hello all,

I am not sure if this is correct place to post this, but I wanted to purchase an AP-16+ tonight from the main website and I was directed to another site that said "Sorry, the product was not found".

Is the AP-16+ out of stock right now?   If so, I am curious to when you will have it back in stock.

Thank You,

Geo

They're on order now and will be back in the store ASAP (I cannot give a date because I do not know it). We sell the AP-16+ to many industries and have been a bit overwhelmed with its sales rate.

Oh, OK.  I kind of figured that you were out.  I just didn't see the notice on the main site.    Yeah, it is a great product, no wonder you are out!

Do you know when you are getting it back in?

Oh, Ok.   Thank you for the tip off, but if you are going to get them in in the next few days, I can still wait.  There were other things I wanted to order from you as well.

It's not going to be the next few days -- go ahead and order from Parallax.

Ok,  I just thought if it was only going to be a few days then I would wait so I could buy everything from you.   But if you are saying it is going to be longer then I will split my order and just get the AP-16+ from Parallax.

Anyway, thanks again for the info.

Hello All

I received my AP-16+ board from Parallax today.  I couldn't wait to open up the package and finally get a good look at the board.  For one thing, it certainly has some weight to it.  Really nicely made.

Over the next few days I will be running some tests and will report back here.   Since I bought the board from Parallax, sadly though, I wasn't able to get the better 18 volt supply.   I do have a 12 volt 3 amp supply that I can use.  Hopefully that will be sufficient.

While I was at ordering from Parallax, I also ordered/received the Propeller Demo Board.  So yeah, I am going to take the plunge and learn to program the Propeller.  This little board should keep me busy for a while.

I did notice some extra solder pads on the board that are not noted in the documentation, so I posted a new thread inquiring about the functions of those.
