Sorry for not posting recently, usually I was getting emails about new posts and it stopped sending them to me. Still waiting on trays but as I said should be shipping to us on the 12th then a few days after that I can start shipping I plan. All can participate in the group buy still. Everything is going forward as planned.

HI all,
So here is what I decided to do. Since I don't want to post open public prices on the forum I am going to ask anyone interested to please send me an PM. I will respond with the same boilerplate replay to all on the pricing offered for the group buy.
I will offer 3 options (A,B,C) as I stated below and the pricing on those options in my response. Then you can just reply with a PM to me with what option you want to go with. Of course I can change out products to what you want if you specify something different.
A) RS30, and Battery Tray, and Optimate 0.8 Amp Battery Charger/Maintainer
B) RS-30 Battery, and Battery Tray
C) RS-30 alone
Some facts about the Group Buy.
1- I am still waiting on the final trays... yes they are in production and toward the end of it... but I am just getting a first Shipment date from the Machinest to me of May 12th for the UN-ANODIZED Models... the Anodized Colors will be a week later. Please keep in mind they are SHIPPED to me on May 12... I assume 5-7 day after that I will have them in hand and be shipping them out. I DON"T control the shipping or final fabrication dates on the tray. Yes I am pulling my hair out to get these but as you can see from the pics below they are going forward...
2- The Optimate Charger we sell does NOT come with a Cigarette lighter plug in like the CTEK for the Porsche Battery (thought they do offer one) ...The Optimate Charger come with Clamps AND a SAE charging pig tail in the kit. And you can run the pigtail right from the battery and easily hook the charger up at the base of the windshield without having to go into the car (how I prefer)... I will try to post a pic later on what I'm talking about. Also note, there are two model of Optimate a .8amp model or a more expensive 5 Amp model. .8A is fine and you should really not have to use it much if ever unless you have something that creates a high parasitic draw and you don't drive the car often.
3-There will be anodized colors of the trays... Black, Blue, Red, those are coming approximately a WEEK later than the raw aluminum trays due to the time to do the anodizing process.
4- Once I have the trays I will keep the Group Buy open for 3 weeks to a month to make sure nobody missed it.
If you have any questions or I missed something let me know.
Regards,

You would need a lithium maintainer or charger due to the fact that a Lead/Acid Maintainer cycles a Lithium Battery excessively because it is designed for lead/acid which has a much higher "self-discharge" than a Lithium batteries do. So they keep trying to top off a Lithium Battery and Lithium does not like that. I have posted a much more in-depth statement on this somewhere else earlier in the tread if you want to search for it... I just can't remember where.

Hey Shane, I can make the offer but the shipping to the UK is off the charts... I think it like $350 to the UK. We just shipped to a Customer there for an R8. Sorry but I can only charge what shipping costs are.
