8000mAh battery

[rahlquist]

I've spent several hours looking through the forum here, but I cannot find any word, (official or not), on the status of the 8000mAh batteries some of us have ordered. My question is simple, have they started shipping yet? I haven't seen anyone in the forums here or on Kickstarter mention that they have received their batteries. My understanding, according to what I could find in the updates, was that the Pine64 Team had the batteries and had worked out a solution to shipping them to backers here in the U.S..

Anyone have an idea of this? I already received my 2GB board, RTC battery case, LCD touchscreen, and the wifi/BT module. I'm simply waiting on the 8000mAh battery and the PlayBox Enclosure, (which I already know won't come until around August).

I am having fun  playing around with the board currently, and as everyone else probably knows, only the one version of Android, (designed for the LCD screen), works on the board.

Thanks everyone.

From the last kickstarter update may 27th.
