So it looks like all of these new cameras go out in the metal case. Did you purchase the case or it was included?

 

[Wil Wong]

Congratulations!! Say what day did you order it? I'm just trying to figure out when mine will ship as today is the 5th business day of what was estimated as 3-5business days. I know Red isn't the speediest but just curious.

Congrats Ayan! Samir, my Epic X was from early stage 4 and also came with that very nice looking metal case...

 

[Ayan Pratap]

Thx guys!
Comes with the case, which is awesome, I am planning to maybe insert the whole case in a pelican 1650! The case also has custom marks for side SSD and Side handle. I ordered mine on 11/09, but had to have it shipped to IL to my brother and then to me here in LA. Just got it a few hours ago.. that AB Hytron 140 seems to be draining fast on standby!

The standby drain is a firmware thing they say. You do not have to worry to much about it as Jarred has told us that power management is being improved in the next build.... and thats schedule before christmas.

Thanks for the update Bjorn! I was getting scared for investing $1K in AB 140s to see them die so fast! The only problem I have with AB 140 is that you can't pull out the mag without taking the battery plate out. Not a big deal, but annoying. Until I have the AB on a bracket on my rail sys, I will just have to dismount the plate to take the mags out..

The case is nice. I might sell it when I migrate the Epic and accessories into a 1650 for local work and a smaller version 1510 for travel..

Which AB mount is that? Fourth picture.

thanks

Hey Hamza,

I think mine took a whole month after ordering to deliver. Yours might actually be way faster as I believe their shipping times have improved significantly after their system change..
