i just looked them up on youtube and that product has been around for at least 4 years.

it looks like they are using kickstarter as a marketing tool and basically free advertising.

if it worked we would have heard about it by now it's been in the market for years.

Looks good, quite an expensive but chilled hobby.

Interesting...

Unluckyalf · 9 Feb 2017 at 09:53

Curious! And also cheaper of that link too!

Haze · 9 Feb 2017 at 09:58

Kickstarter was the base for the Lampster, they just used Indiegogo as a shop to sell more

Unluckyalf · 10 Feb 2017 at 09:58

Im just hoping that they ship in May as promised. 2 years seems a long time to develop a lamp and its not like they have had financing issues!

IronWarrior · 11 Feb 2017 at 06:53

I just backed this: Nekopara Anime OVA

Originally it got funded in the first few minutes when it opened, but every $100k afterwards allowed for 10 more minutes then after $500k new goals got added.

So close to one million.

I just backed the Optimus 3D printer/Laser Etcher/CNC milling machine...

I have had a small 3D printer for a while (UP!Plus) and also have a LaserCutter (LS3060), but ive been wanting a CNC milling machine to play with, this all-in-one solution seems interesting and at only £1200 its cheap enough to use as just the 3D printer if the milling part of it isnt up to much.

Glaucus · 20 Mar 2017 at 10:41

i'm extremely weary of 3d printers on kickstaer the majority fail. although their has been some good ones.

Backed this https://www.kickstarter.com/project...best-cold-coffee-brewing-system?ref=user_menu
I have cold brew every day, and despite buying a very popular and well regarded cold brew set up, it annoys me, imo its very poorly designed. The only other one i can find that looks well designed I would have to import from the states.

Like usual i will keep an eye on it and if the creators dont fill me with confidence with updates and answering questions, then i'll cancel.

Same here. It was meant to be each others Christmas presents last year lol.

Fingers crossed for this Christmas.

I don't think I would ever back something over £30 on Kickstarter. Too many have failed and people have lost their money.

DiG · 20 Mar 2017 at 11:39

Is there a way of subscribing to updates for a Kickstarter without backing? There are quite a few that I don't want to take the risk on baking via Kickstarter, but would want to know when they are shipping and are available for ordering

this is where facebook comes in, just search for the company and follow them.

Would credit card guarentee not cover it if it didn't though?
