The joke's on me. I already have it priced ay $149.99 for the kit.

Oh what the heck, I'll drop it another $15 so the assembled version is $149.99. #yolo

Get it now before I realize I literally can't afford to keep doing this. LOL

Once the current batch of components arrive, I plan on running the numbers to see if I can make a permenent price reduction.

I've been getting killed on shipping prices, but ordering in larger quantities helps mitigate that.

The other persistent problem is finding components in stock within 5-10% of the regular price. Building out a bigger inventory helps here too.

I'm optimistic. My goal is to get down to $150. Stretch goal is to hit $129.99 (the same price as Google's cheapest Nest)
