Hi folks,
I've upgraded the adapter lineup to brand new hardware and firmware. More info here: TouchDRO Adapter Feature Comparison
New adapters are a decent step up from the previous version, and a huge leap compared to the MSP430 platform. Part of TouchDRO's value proposition is that it's constantly being upgraded and you will not be stuck with an obsolete DRO. This is easy with the app, but adapter hardware is harder, so here what I can offer:
1. People who bough a fully assembled (in the box) TouchDRO Adapter for Glass and Magnetic scales, You will have an option to send the board to me and I will upgrade the firmware to the new version. This will get your access to TouchDRO Plus app, add support for over-the-air updates. For US-based customers It will cost $25, which will cover the labor to reprogram and retest the board, and send it back to you. If you are outside of the USA, please contact me and I will figure out what to do about shipping.
2. People who bought an old version of the adapter directly from me (from yuriystoys.com or touchdro.com) can trade in the old adapter for a credit towards one of the new adapters. The credit will be 50% of the price you paid for the old adapter, not including shipping. The adapter(s) does not have to be functional, but you will need to find the original receipt/PayPal transaction and include the printout when you ship the adapter to me after you place an order for a new adapter. I will accept one trade-in per new adapter. I.e. if you buy one board, you can send one old trade-in. If you buy 5 new adapters, you can send 5 trade-ins. When I get the old adapter(s) back, I'll send a refund.
If you are interested, please email or PM me.
Please note: I don't know for how long this offer will be valid. If it ends up being a huge amount of work, or people start abusing the system, I will pull the plug on it.
Regards
Yuriy
UPDATE 1/24/24 - I got quite a few emails/messages from people who missed the meaning of the first option: the V2 adapter sold as a bare board, kit with an unassembled enclosure, and a fully assembled unit. The $25 upgrade applies to the fully assembled units (i.e. what you bought had "Option" in the name, like Option A, etc., I can still upgrade the unassembled adapters, as long as the ESP32 revision is the latest version E, but this will not include the Plus app.
