I’m sure a more integrated and stylistically integrated version is quite a bit more desirable to some so the extra cost covers that.

I’m excited for you. I want to hear how it goes.

I don’t know how relevant it will be, but this was from Bondtech when they announced the founders kit.

There was discussion about this on “the other site*” when the founder’s kits were released. The basic answer ended up being something like “since the nozzles heads are dumb, you’re still getting the same amount of smart (more expensive) components so there isn’t a lot of cost to save”.

*- I still lurk a few communities, but don’t interact. Fuck Spez.

They address that in the FAQ at the bottom. It’s coming, the smaller one was just ready 1st (or they tried to split the traffic spike to the site too possibly).

Same, am I still going to buy one after others have been the guinea pigs to work out bugs? Yes, but that’s still a chunk of change.

I think I saw that the add-on nozzles end up being on the cheaper end though. Not sure what my plans are for those yet.
