Final Week

I can't believe the campaign has already reached its final week! We're still on track to possibly reach $20K before it's over, so if you know anyone who could use a LiFePO4wered/Pi+ for their project _please tell them about it_ and help spread the word before it's too late! The retail price will go up once the campaign is over -- don't tell me I didn't warn you. :) Read the full update.

Project History

On the campaign page I mention the previous iterations of this project, the LiFePO4wered/Pi and LiFePO4wered/Pi3. Since many backers may not be familiar with how the current LiFePO4wered/Pi+ came to be, I thought it might be interesting to recap a little history of how this project has grown over time to where it is now.
