Feeler for The Water Port

[Enzo4370]

Hey all,
Digging all the support and interest in this group buy. So I've noticed a lot of you want to do this group buy ASAP. So I talked to owner of group buy just a few minutes ago and we are going to go ahead and start the group buy tomorrow! I will create a new thread on the group buy page to an active status and no more feeler thread.

So far we have a total of 26 people interested in the water port. Owner is going to offer if we sell 20 water ports we will all get 20% off your individual order! Woot Woot!

I appreciate everyone who has sent me a private message of all your details of what you want but we have decided to make it easier. The owner of WaterPort will give me a code tomorrow and I will post it and we will just apply the code when you purchase your product through his website. The 20% will show it applied immediately. The code will only be valid for a week or so but I will put the exact dates and details tomorrow.



Some other notes he wanted me to share:

- Shipping prices varies. he can't do anything about that. he is located in Southern CA so closer you are the cheaper. He is willing to do local pickup if you want to meet him personally. He is located in Encinitas CA. If you want to do this you will have to contact him personally either from his website or make a note of it during your purchase.

- He has also created another way to attach the water port. He is currently creating a mount that attaches directly to your trailer hitch. But he says it will be another 3 weeks before it can be ready to be shipped. He will get me pictures/vid tomorrow and I will forward along.

- For everyone who wants the frame mounted version, He is already back ordered on the mounting hardware. He says he will not be ready to ship the frame mounted version until middle of August. He will move as fast as he can. He prefers if you want the frame mounted that you order now and use the code that will be provided but it will be awhile until it ships.

If you have any questions/concerns/complaints, ect... Feel free to contact me or contact Adrain through his website. He is a really cool guy and would love to tell you more about his product.

[MENTION=120033]Enzo4370[/MENTION] Thanks for the leg work! Good info ^

Does the guy have a phone number? I pinged him on IG and through his website, no response.

Additionally, is 20% the cap? What if we get up to 50 participants for example?

Refilling off-grid

FYI:

"HI David,

All systems can be refilled without a hose except for the frame mount. The tanks have a 3/4" top cap that can be opened to refill. We recommend
staying under 50 psi when pressurizing with a bike pump. Let me know if
you have any more questions.

Thanks,
Adrian Frick"

Make

Hmm wonder how hard it would be to make one of these. 3" PVC pipe, two ends, a screw cap end, and a shcrader valve.

Hmmmm

Oh no worries man

Hmmmm

For a 100 bucks, is it worth the trouble?
It's not like he's charging thousands of dollars for it ...

 

[DirtyDanno]

Totally agree. Looking at it from a simple project viewpoint. When all said and done probably save about $30-$40.

Hmmmm

IF you already have the materials, I'd say it wouldn't be hard and in fact there's a write up on Expedition Portal to do just that. Pricing out the materials though, it starts get up into the 60-80 dollar range. So for another 20-30 you can have one premade and ready to go.

Hey all. Group Buy is now active. Go back to the Group Buy home page and you should see and new active group buy thread there. All directions and everything you need will be on the new thread.

Thanks to everyone who expressed interest and more importantly to everyone who participates in it.

Just curious how well it will hold up in the heat of AZ mount on roof all summer. Definitely have scalding hot water! Lol
