Has anyone gotten/seen any indication on when the new 64W lasers will ship? I don’t follow social media stuff, so If they’ve posted I wouldn’t have seen it.
The only thing I’ve seen is the blurb “First Units Expected To December 2024” on the product website.
Personally I find Onefinity’s order status communication to be sub-par for 2024. The My Orders page in one’s account should really have a shipping estimate.
I can relate to your feelings @stuckinohio. My order has a ~8 week lead time too. I’m curious to know why their lead times are so long. I think Onefinity charges all customers at the time of order. From what I’ve read, Onefinity should get that money in just a few days. Therefore, Onefinity has the cash from our orders months before they ship them! I wonder if Onefinity is waiting to order from its suppliers until they have the cash from our purchases. Even if they are not, I would think they would find someway to put that money to work rather than let it sit in a checking account.
The jtech orders likely are fulfilled by jtech, i would expect. It would be illogical for onefinity to stock them (importing to Canada then exporting them back to their largest customer base). I would reach out to Jtech Photonics, who have always been helpful and responsive.
