Open Vehicle Monitoring System General Availability

We are pleased to announce the general availability of the OVMS v2 system.

Our China partner (FastTech) has now also got PICKIT-2 compatible programmers up on their site for US$16.99 (including shipping). These are used to upgrade the firmware on the OVMS box (and that price is cheap enough that all users can now consider it).

As the FastTech site is still in their last days of private beta, you can use this special link to get in and order:

• http://fasttech.com/link/ovms

For Tesla Roadster owners, the pricing and product links you will need are:

• OVMS Car Module v2 US$ 99.00
• OVMS Tesla Roadster Cable US$ 7.50
• OVMS GSM Antenna US$ 2.50

(all the above including air-mail shipping)

EMS shipping (to USA) is around US$ 20.00 (estimate), bringing the total to around US$129.00 (confirm at checkout). Please note that EMS shipping is required on this, due to the value of the goods.

Optional: If you would like to be able to do firmware upgrades yourself, you will need:

• PicKit 2 compatible Programmer US$16.99

Feel free to sniff around on the FastTech site, and see what else they have that might interest you. They now accept orders for everything on their site, and most stuff ships from stock. They are an awesome partner, and are going to be an incredible resource for geeks and tech-heads.

For SIM, you can either arrange something yourself, or order a compatible global roaming SIM from our partner at this link:
