$0.51 more expensive, shipped within a week. Just sayin.
EDIT - if you select shipping from USA Warehouse, and if you stay in the USA. Don't know shipping rates to other countries.

payodpandaOh man I love the Engrish on that page. I wonder how to apply to be a copywriter for these types of gigs or if they just don't care...

payodpandaYes if you can trust BG and their ships out in 1 business day! Also note that the one on BG DOES NOT include the adapter..... just an FYI if others are going that route

dfccompIt does work with any DC adapter in 12-24V range, and that means you can use virtually any adapter(like reusing your old laptop adapter) because most of them fall in this output voltage range.

dfccompWell. It says delivered within a week. Deliveries (from shipped to delivered) never take five business days for me, more like 2-3 days. So even if it ships out within 3 days, then depending on where you live you might still get it within a week of your ordering. :)
And, well. I was just giving an option. I didn't even know about BG until I read another post with a link to the tips sold for this there. I am only starting out with DIY electronics stuff, and I really don't know much / enough to recommend products.

payodpandaFor the record, BG's stuff is usually good, but shipping can take forever (no tracking, either). Not trying to discourage, just letting it be known!

bsatowFor now, basic soldering skills. Not sure about the future though.

ronCYAI think he was talking about amperage

bsatowBased on the power adapter it takes and the fact that it's supposed to be wireless, I'd say the current requirement is going to be irrelevant as long as you aren't using a DIY converter or anything. I don't imagine the thing will fuss to much about how fast it's getting the power as long as it isn't coming with too much voltage.
