Ingenuity Precision trickler

[JGRJR]

The original trickler ships fairly quickly. I would contact IP to see what the lead time would be. The way it works is you place an order and it usually ships in a couple weeks. Mine did. With in the last year though there have been times it took longer. Their service is pretty good. Contact them

I can’t wait for 30 minute monotonous video with too much talking.

I hear ya. Go to the settings button and scroll down to playback speed; try 1.5 or 1.75 for a more enjoyable experience.

Oh, I was kinda kidding

I totally just wanted to revive the thread

I emailed earlier this week and got this response:

Current estimate is late Aug we should have most everything in house to start packaging and assembly if you ordered before about 3-1 . Units should start shipping thru September and October.
If you preordered after about 3-1-24 then you will be in the second batch later this fall. This is a brand new product being released for the first time and is exactly why it had a zero money down wait list and estimated eta. Good things take time and the first batch of a product is the hardest. Sorry for the wait but I promise it's worth it!

 

[secondofangle2]

^if they’re saying 6-8 weeks to start shipping you can count on it being double that, ie 12-16 weeks out for first ahipments

Recall that this outfit has never before tried to assemble and ship such a large volume of some thing this complex. And they don’t even have all the parts yet!

May be more reasonable to triple the 6-8 weeks to 18-24 (4-6 more months, placing it almost a year behind the original Feb estimate)

We shall see. Glad I got my ATV2.75 on the meantime

My view is that I have a powder measure system (MatchMaster at the moment), I have no money involved with their zero deposit policy, so I'm just going to wait and they will be shipping at some point or not. If not, I have lost nothing (but I really, really want one of these).

But I can't see them not shipping at some point....they have too much time invested and money at stake.

If they don’t ship this then that would mean going bankrupt. I can’t imagine how much he has invested in this and unless he had a ton of money in capital then he will NEED this to be very successful.

 

[NICETRY]

They will ship. Paul has only invested his own money in this but not shipping won’t bankrupt him. Additional units have been built to send out to beta testers as production parts have started to arrive. Beta test units are just to test the programming to make eliminate any issues that may affect users.

 

[secondofangle2]

A larger investment that risked bankruptcy might have kept it more on schedule

 

[ma smith]

One has to give the benefit of the doubt here.

The area where systems are weak right now are the powder cups, the breeze shields, the data input/control (=not on phone), and the hopper/powder transition process.

Note that the auto-throw itself isn't really one of those areas of weakness.

But the "powder thower" when considered a system is only as good as the wekaest link.

The trickler itself is very well designed. That's all I will say.

There isn't any excess complexity, the parts are all very high quality. There isn't really an obvious need for any aftermarket upgrades to it, etc.

I suggest hitting the settings button and speeding up the video to at least 1.5 so you don’t fall asleep. I ran it on 2.0 and still had to skip ahead.​

Well, it's now awkward since he officially joined Gavin now.

 

[Baron23]

Well, I guess that explains why F-Class John's vid on the IP powder system seemed like a Home Shopping Network infomercial. lol

I have heard rumors that Gavin gets $5,000 per product video he does.

 

[secondofangle2]

I just want what I pre-ordered

 

[NiteQwill]

Feels kinda low... I would guess higher.

A buddy of mine is a filmmaker, has done with with Toyota, Nike, Rivian, etc. and his daily average rate is much higher than that for 30 seconds of film. Of course, not a great comparison as far as production goes, but you get the idea.

"...we SHOULD have most everything in house.... units SHOULD start shipping September and October..."

if someone gets one of these before 2025 I'll be very surprised

His prices start less than that. His prices also vary depending on content of the video.

He is selling himself low then

@vh20 I tried running the funnel and trickler up top like you showed and that actually works pretty well.

 

[wkarma]

Anyone heard anything recently? Any updates @NICETRY @Ingenuity1 ?

 

[jdne5b]

Loaded 50 rounds on one of these Saturday night. Using the settings it was on for Varget, with n150 it was pretty amazing.

Even more impatient for my email now

Where? Address? List of times they're not home? They have any dogs?

Quick update. Controllers are being assembled. Further beta unit testing has shown some flow issues with Retumbo due to it wanting to clump up so the funnel part of the dropper has been getting a revision to flow faster. And for those with a Sartorius working on a slick windscreen for the top. Those with the less sensitive AND will not have to worry.

Sigh….sometime you just have to finally release a product

+1

Beta testers are probably own/using 2-3 different lab grade scales each or something
so they want a widget that works w/ all their toys day 1

Meanwhile, everyone else is going insane ...

So, you're saying the AD scale isn't good enough?

SOB! Really?? I basically only use one powder - guess which one...

 

[TheOE800]

Perfect is the enemy of good?

 

[secondofangle2]

Wait. We’re here, on August 6, 2024 and the powder that was just discovered to require a design tweak is…..wait for it….not 870 pulled from WW2 surplus, cuz it was “clumping”

But it was RETUMBO. A wildly popular powder.

So, the so-called beta-testers just now tested RETUMBO?

I know a fabulous beta-tester who’s a product engineer type who tested the shit out of the ST and abandoned it (not me) and was rebuffed when he offered to beta test the IP ( u know who you are)

And all the while the F-class guys were running their usual powders through it and JUST NOW….

We learn of RETUMBO issues?

FFS. Yet another SNAFU

This is what happens when you enlist confederates friends fanboys and Gavins as your “beta-testers”. More like alpha-testers

Just wait till the gamma and delta testers get their hands on it. V2,3,4,5

 

[NiteQwill]

Good testers, among a range of LR shooters, would have been a few from each: BR, F-class, ELR, PRS, NRL-H, gas gun shooters (Comp dynamic folks), etc

That would have covered a wide variety of shooters who use vastly different powders to get bullets on target.

The issue with Retumbo would have been found much earlier.

[vh20]

What I don't get is, why Retumbo? It's a pretty basic stick powder, not physically much different than H1000, H4350, etc. It doesn't have the huge kernels of say, N570, so why is there a problem with Retumbo and not the others that are physically very similar?
