My 1st Order

My first BatchPCB order arrived today, I am extremely happy with the quality of the boards, and I really can’t wait to get hold of my 2nd order!

Excellent service and I’ll definitely be a return customer!

what’s the cost, size? And how long did you wait to get them.

I just received my first order. I am extremely satisfied. It took 16 days to get my order.

Listen, if you are wanted something quicker than batchpcb.com can offer, go pay for it! I for one, cannot afford it and do not wish to pay the high prices that other shops charge.

I find the batchpcb service invaluable. I have allready referred it to my friends (one of which has placed his order last week).

I received my first order a few days ago, and I am delighted with the quality of the boards. Altho I had ordered boards before with Goldenphoeni, but I realized that they sometimes can not deliver a constant high quality product for some reason. Not sure if cost cutting is to blame. Anyway, I am a happy camper right now… :smiley:

I do also find the service very useful and reasonably priced. I find 16 some days reasonable, altho if that could be reduced to less than 10, it be the killer.

Cheers

What’s all the fuzz about BatchPCB? I don’t really get it. Places like Olimex offer better prices and lower production time. A 160x100 standard board would cost over $70 from BatchPCB and about $40

from Olimex.

@monstrum:

And how much does a 1" x 1" or 3" x 1" single proto cost? The idea behind batchpcb is for prototypes without having massive outlays. Here in the UK, if I only want 1 x 1" x 1" proto I would have to pay for a full eurocard at the very minimum costing £25+. With batch its only $2.50 per inch. :slight_smile:

For production quantitys I would switch to GP, 1000sq cm for $99. 8)

I just got my first PCB too. It works great! Even with the custom-sized drill holes and pads that I used, everything was done correctly and it works perfectly.

I got my first boards a few days ago. Very happy. I had 3 designs, ordered 1 of each and received 4 of 2 and 2 of the third.

I also got my first order yesterday, very nice looking cards, better than I imagined. Let’s just hope I designed them correct :slight_smile:

Waiting for mine on panel 727, says the last panel shipped was 725, hoping for next week.

Little sloppy on the silkscreen but all and all looks good, AND it works!!!

Got my first order back today. The boards look great! They are pretty much exactly what I was hoping for. I’ve dry fitted most of the parts, and so far so good. I’ll be soldering it up tomorrow and see if I got the layout right!

I have to join in and say I’m very happy with my first design. Other than two problems, holes too small and a small wiring error (both my problems) the board is perfect. I’m so happy I’ve sent off three more boards to be producted.
