You have the die hard fans that are with it all year. You will see everything pick up soon before May 24 weekend. |

it was great Scott touched on a couple good things
here is a quote from him
Hi Richard,
1) New firmware for 3.0.3 with fixes to known issues and Audio Box support - release in next few weeks
2) New beta firmware 3.1.0 with added improvements to 18R2 and Audio Box functionality
3) COBRA power adapter release before summer for external power, internal rechargable, and cold weather operation
4) Other larger releases planned for 2014 to be released
Thanks! Scott
if there is enough people wanting to do this again then I will host again , Scott has no problem talking with us

How about negotiating a group discount with him?? Perhaps if there's enough interest it may be worthwhile?

Any formal Club gets an automatic 10% discount, check his website and see what his requirements are for what constitutes a club and go from there.
He also offers some good deals on packages on his website. If a handful of you got together and ordered a larger package, plus an extra remote or two, I'm sure you'd save a stack of money that way as well. Only problem would be shipping - This forum doesn't appear to show where everyone is from.
He's fast to reply to emails - shoot him a message and ask what he can do if you put a buy together.
I live close to the USA border, so I usually ship to a drop-box on the south side and pick it up to save a buttload on shipping - if any of you are in the same position, I'd try that to shave a few extra bucks off as well.

Ya, Scott is terrific for communicating quickly. You know, his company is exploding at a pretty fast rate, he's done good for himself. Its a great product. I use Dewey's sparkfire systems from remotefiringsystems.com and they are super reliable themselves but looking into getting Cobra.
The only thing I hate is they are only 18 cue's. Since I use 32 cue's its going to be hard changing to a 18 cue's on each unit. I have three systems with 32, 96 total for now lol.

I have spent a bunch of time trying to think up a way to matrix the system to get more cues out it. Inexpensive Sequencer add-ons are probably the best way to expand without buying more modules. Now that the firmware will allow you to repeatedly fire the same cue, it seems like a great way to "cheat." I may make up my own little sequencer this summer for fun. Scott has hinted that there could be different versions of the module in the future. I know he has a smaller 1 or 2 cue unit in the works for the indoor pyro crowd, hopefully he's got a 36 cue box in the works as well...
