[Article] Ube KickStarter Campaign Update

[electron]

It looks like all is still on track in Ube-land, as they just posted an update on the KickStarter website, indicating they are still going to make their October 2013 shipping date.  Ube also shared that they still have all the money in the bank, and are only using it for ordering of components (and not for paying salaries, travel expenses, etc.), which is refreshing to hear.  Ube also started working on engineering the 'Smart Plugs' and 'Smart Outlets', mentioned in previous campaign updates.
 
The update also mentioned that the 10% discount for preordering is still active, but will soon be dropped to 5%, so if you are on the fence about the product, it's time to make a decision!
 

10% Discount on Pre Orders – for a Limited Time 
 
You can still get a 10% discount on pre-orders for the time being. We are planning some changes to our ecommerce engine in the next few weeks and at that time we will reduce the discount for pre-orders to 5%. The 10% discount code is 0GVQF7X1DQNM.  The link to our store is best found from our website at

 
Last but not least, they also announced the formation of a KickStarter API team.  If you want your favorite software to support the Ube hardware, I highly recommend you let them know about this.
 

Ube is forming a Kickstarter API Action team! Help us build the killer dimmer by getting involved! If you plan on integrating the ube products with other 3rd party controllers / software, and you are a coder with knowledge in languages like Python, Java, etc… Send an email to [email protected] and write "API ACTION TEAM" in the subject line, we will contact you to discuss the details. 

 
For more details and the complete update, go to the Ube KickStarter campaign website.
