Estimate of cart price

2013-07-07 by Richard

Ok, I've got to get a price on the PCB from the manufacturer.

As to the components, they come to $47.00 (hi cost items are the SW, Plug and case, Only good manufacturers chosen so good quality. These items are $22.00 of the cost. The 4 Ram chips are $19.00)

I'd estimate the PCB's will be around $8 - $16 ea (based on previous experience. 

My time to cut the case for openings, build PCB and test - approx 1 hr
So if I ask for a token $15.00 for that (and man thats a cheap hourly rate...lol) you are looking at around $80.00ea

You can see why ultimately it is best to go surface mount and get them made....each pcb assembled from a chinese plant would be about 30 bucks!!
