MYLAPS RC4 Transponder Bulk Buy
 

OK Guys register your interest here.

Basically if we can get at least 6 people together, it'd be around £60 each for a transponder and that includes postage costs. The more the merrier and I will contact them for further discounts. UPDATE: As mentioned below, the transponders are soon to be available in the UK and discounts are available for 10 or more. They will work out under £60 each.

Leave a reply here to let me know your interested and we will see what can be done!

OK then, a good update. Totally forgot to check BBK and they are introducing the new transponder with a price of £57.66!!

I'll contact them for a bulk price so we can still get in on the savings but it will be 10 transponders or more.

If there is a saving to be had I will take 2. :thumbsup:

James

So I take it there'll be a few people with the old type they wish to sell? If so I'm interested in buying a second hand one...

Pm me.

Barry

Same:thumbsup:

i would have thought anyone wanting a new RC4 pt that has an old style one would be trading it in for the discount. i will be

Depends - if it were me I'd go with whatever was the best deal. I.e. if I only got a fiver for my old one as a trade in i'd be looking to sell it.

Barry

Can you put me down for one aswell. PM me if you need contact details before ordering.

Cheers

Ben

you not looked on the mylaps or bbk websites then.discount is a bit more than a fiver:)

i think its more of a saving for the postage as what i have heard it is about 40 euros

No, I haven't. As I said, I'm. Just interested in 2nd hand PTs and 'a fiver' was a random figure to justify my reason for inquiring.

Just to check, will these new transponsders still work with the old AMB club systems? Mentions on the website you need to check with your club that they run the software?!?!?

If they have an RC2, RC3 or RC4 decoder, then it will work. (RC2 was the first to accept the current/outgoing PT). If you can run a PT now, you can run the new one. Unless the club has an RC4 the voltage monitor cannot be used.

As far as I can tell, they will work with any club who has the red handout transponders and above. So basically, if its a digital loop it will work? I think anyway

Good stuff as the meeting we are at on Sunday are taking pre orders at £50 plus £2.50 postage - reckon he will be taking a few quid:thumbsup:

site says they will work
am testing some on sunday using a rc2(original style)decoder.so will know for sure after then :)

Sorry disagree, especially about the RC2 type decoder:thumbdown:! Maybe I'm reading this wrong? And it would be good for Rob to clarify!

http://www.mylaps.com/index.php/uk_e...c4_transponder

But the way I've read this is that if the club has got a RC3 type decoder the new RC4 Transponders will not work until the release of free firmware upgrade in FEBRUARY 2010.

And if you are in the unfortunate position of owning a RC2 type decoder, then this will have to be traded in for a RC3 type decoder (at the cost of Euro400!) which will then be subject to the FEBRUARY 2010 firmware upgrade.

From what I can see (and the website seems to confirm this) the only advantage of buying now is 'As an early adopter you profit from attractive discount prices'.

Check & discuss!

I think you are reading it wrong, site states the following..

'It is hybrid in the sense that it works on all tracks where a MYLAPS RC2 or RC3 Timing System is installed, as well as the new MYLAPS RC4 Timing System, which will be available in February 2010'

Yeah, I think you're reading it wrong too. The bit at the bottom
simply means that if your club wants an RC4 decoder (so you can benefit from the voltage readings etc), these are the upgrade paths. They are not required because of this:

Like I said would be good if Rob could give absolute clarification.

That all looks very clear to me. Those statements all make sense, do not contradict and clearly state it will be compatible.

James

Anyone else? just need 1 more person to make up the 10

Think I'll pop my name down for one too. Cheers.

Can you stick me down for one please? , thanks.

Yes, I will also have one if you want to have more than ten people.

Regards
Neil

Please add me to the list

Listen very carefully, I will say this only once (I wish!)
 

The RC4 Transponder (aka Harry) will work on ALL RC Decoders, RC2, RC3 and RC4 NOW.

The RC2 (PT), Clone AND RC4 Transponders will work on RC4 Decoders NOW.

EVERYTHING WORKS WITH EVERYTHING

In February 2010 RC3 Decoders will be able to upgrade the firmware to get all the features of the RC4 standard, double hits, temp and voltage detection. If you have an RC2 Decoder (last sold July 2006) you can upgrade it to an RC3 Decoder for a very low price compared with a new Decoder. I'm working with MYLAPS so that you can do it via me so you won't even have to pay the international UPS shipping.

Years ago I sold a lot of PTs in bulk to Clubs, sounds like you guys are forming a Club, good for you. Alternatively you could suggest that your Clubs do the bulk buying with Club funds and sell you the transponders. Saves on postage and as Clubs have cheque books the saving on retailer credit card charges means the price is cheaper. Win Win. Just a suggestion. Worked fine a few years ago, might work again.

Rob, your website shows the PT's available to buy with discounts of 10 or more and you accept PayPal payments. I presume it's alright for us to do this?

What about james neil?

Ry, pete & ben who race at NNRC want one aswell, I will send you Petes number.

i am going to start racing again after the turn of the year , would be good to have a pt so put me down for one too please, ta.

say if you have 3 cars, dont want to use the same pt in each, can they be programmed to show the same number?? a clone as it were

as far as i can tell you can have as many as you want on the same tranponder number but give them all different names if you want, check the web site link above for more info.

Your answer seems to be in the other thread,

http://www.oople.com/forums/showthre...470#post318470

post near the end #177, seems yes, but next year.

so only 200 are available at the moment? if thats the case they wont last long and demand i think will be high...will you be getting anymore quickly or will there be a delay in supply?

i like the idea if trading in your old one, im guessing its to buy back the transponder number so they can be used in these new ones??

Ry@ JE.Spares, when would you require payment for these?

cheers
