JB3 ***1.3*** Update Status

Just wanted to give you guys a quick update on the progress of 1.3 The beta testing has gone extremely well and we have had so much positive feedback [Thanks to all]. I have been told that 1.3 8D4 will be finalized at the end of the week

There are many new features on the table but at some point 1.3 needs to be released so any new features will be included in 1.4 The latest 8D4 represents an awesome tune and great upgrade over 1.22!

For updates, ideally we'd like everyone to get or have access to a burner. It's cheaper and easier for everyone.

As an alternative, you may mail a spare chip to us and we will burn it with 1.3 and mail it back. They are light so a stamp should do. We will pay the return postage. To take advantage of that ship to our office:

US and INternational Customers can send their chips here

BMS
22120 Clarendon St
Suite 300
Woodland Hills, CA 91367

Canadian Customers please PM for the address

As a second alternative we have listed chips with 1.3 burned on our website for $20.

If you have any spare chips lying around please send them in so we can re-use them and we will provide you with a $5.00 store credit per chip


Thanks
Mike

Ahhhh... customer service. It feels so warm and snugly when it's done right, like hot-chocolate on a winter's day..

Now go buy the burner bitches (or find someone local who has one)!! Makes updating a 30sec affair.

Thanks for the update, Mike! I see that you have the PnP's now shipping with the v1.3. Do the pinout versions ship with v1.3 as well?

LOL... 1.4 will begin development as of next week, but I wouldn't expect it for many months

PM me when you're ready to order and we'll take care of you. Right now all JB3's ship with 1.3 which is a blast to drive.

So if we have 1.22 right now, we can purchase for $20 the 1.3 chip off your website and replace? Is that how it works? The whole chip burner thing, while simple, i'd rather not deal with.

Yes, or mail a chip back and we will update it and return it for free! We're low on chips right now.
