That’s awesome!
Man, I dream of a discount like that some day.
I get a discount through my job. I work for a sign/electrical company. I get to use their business account. I get roughly 40% off of the regular price on Samsung, bridgelux, some meanwell stuff. Mostly I just use it for the strips.

Edit: sry for the long delay in reply. I didnt see it.

gen2 aren't going out of style anytime soon nice choice
Yeah I'm still happy with my choice but you know the whole newer bigger better thing. Though I do have room on my driver for up to 4 more strips so there is always the option of mixing the 2 provided their voltage is the same.

The rep told me gen 3 ánd gen 4 are hitting the market at the end of Q2 so i'm very disappointed because he first say that gen 3 was ready at the end of last year.

Any news about gen4? Sounds somehow strange to release gen 3 and 4 within a half year. Why the heck they should release gen4 this soon?

Hmmm it’s been well over a week now
To be honest, i think "for sale" means digikey, arrow & co will be able to order the strips this week. Lead time is usually 8 weeks. Theres still no datasheet for them, only that sheet that seems more like some sales literature. I think end of summer is more likely.

Mr. Amsterdam, iiuc, gets his info on a distributor level, so for sale means orderable fpr them. But again, only my ideas...

Don't feel so bad about the Gen 2 build now, looking forward to grabbing some of those Gen 3's to tac on to the build though.

So, still no news regarding Gen3, Gen4 or a possible vesta2? =/

Regarding Gen3 it looks like RocketSoul is right, probably won't be released to consumers until the end of summer.

But damnit, I want to build my next rig with those gen3-strips! >.<

I feel kinda like Eric Cartman in that SP episode when he's waiting for the Nintendo Wii, xD

Anyways, have a dank summer everybody!
