BAUER LITE
DEVELOPMENT PHASE
+ We have received the final internal part samples to be able to really test the 3D-printed prototype and MAN does this thing sound good! We have some changes that will need to be made, which means another prototype before tooling can begin.
+ Also we've kept y'all in the dark about the material for long enough. It will be injection molded in polycarbonate.
Known Info
+ Injection-molded Polycarbonate
+ Bauer Lite PCB will be the same form factor as (and compatible with) Bauer 2
+ Bauer Lite plates will be the same as (and compatible with) Bauer 2
+ Bauer Lite top/bottom case is not the same as Bauer 2 metal versions (i.e. not compatible) because the injection molding process requires a different design for production
+ Bauer Lite mounting system will be the same style as the Bauer 2, with neoprene pads and taco bumpers
+ Will be consistently available and may launch it with an unlimited preorder
+ There will be a hotswap PCB
Unannounced Info

- Launch date
- Color options
