Hi @Raspiaudio,
A half year ago or some time around that we talked about some ideas to include in a new revision of the proto board.
Now that in the marked to by 2 more of those boards (almost every room get’s one) i was wondering of the board on amazon.nl is the same as before or a newer revision.
Not sure what all the ideas where but one that i now like to have is disabling the charger led and the onboard speaker.
Thanks for your work,
Hello! everything in stock in all countries is the new version USB C
Hi @Raspiaudio,
I can’t find any stock in Europe and with my previous order I did not get enough proto boards. I’m looking to purchase at least 2 more boards to complete my multiroom audio setup with squeezelite and MASS.
Any chance I can get them at least before Easter?
Tried amazon com.be de fr nl it, berrybase…
Thanks for any info!
P.S. First time posting but the product, the forum and your detailed and helpful feedback convinced me to give in 
Hi thanks for your message! Proto is out of stock everywhere but we are making a new batch that should be ready in 2 weeks, I will send you a message to let you know.
This batch will have a few improvement such as better WIFI signal and an I2C battery management system but still 100% compatible with the previous version.
Awesome, really.
Would the wifi improvements also help to reconnect to wifi if signal was lost for one reason or another?
In my use case, I noticed that I can’t reboot my AP (following regular updates) without rebooting the proto board after that.
I’m thinking it is either a fix that I can have on the proto side, or a workaround scheduling a reboot (however possible) when an AP is getting an update.
Love to hear your thoughts!
the reconnect thing is probably something on the software side, the PCB upgrade might not solve this.
Proto boards is available on amazon so I ordered 2x and an MnCast too…figured I can try it out.
Got ‘em and set ‘em up with squeezelite.
Quite cool what one can do with simple zigbee buttons and mnCast + Music Assistant.
Great product!
Thanks! don’t hesitate to share some picture or video
I got them all linked in HomeAssistant / MusicAssistant and control each using zigbee buttons/knobs.
Each room has a designated button/knob that controls that speaker (Dutch: luidspreker).
Coolest thing is you can also use the AirPlay feature and play music from an iOS device instead. In this case you cannot control the speakers’ volume using zigbee as control is taken over by iOS.
Automations I have running are using helpers, conditions whether that device is playing or not, whether it is the alarm in the morning kicking in or even slowly reducing volume in the evening for the kids to fall asleep.
One of the catchiest ones is if you just play music in the bathroom, it starts with 80% volume, unless there is movement in the shower cabin, when it goes to 100%.
Kids love it, I enjoy it.
Feel free to ask away for help on any automation/setup.
Best,
iGor
