items recieved. The switcher without ribbon does not work. Only red or green light but no boot, only black screen. The other untested but dont want to get more disapointed.
Forgive me but will not leave any feedback.

Update: Second unit doesn't work also. Pressing RESET does not change LED color, black screen also

I have tested them before to send. They work fine.

What is the model of your Amiga?

Sorry for the following silly questions:
Did you put the little clip onto the Pin 18 of the 68000 (and not and another?)
The clip must not touch an another pin of the 68000.
Have you put the kickstart Switcher in the right direction?

I'm not waiting for feedback. I don't make the Kickstart Switcher for having good feedback.
If I have made this KS, it's firstly for me, and it's working onto my A500, A2000 and A600...
And after I have decided to allow to other Amiga fans.

You are not happy with your Kickstart switcher, NO PROBLEM. I take them back.
Send them back to me, and I'll refound your money after I'll receive them.

I'm really happy to hear!

PM sent to jcarvalho just now to ask him to return back the switchers.

I have sent them in functional condition, I hope to receive them like that.
A complete test is always made before sending them. (Time selector and priority bootrom)

Hi Tuxbar. ....are there any news about my ribbon version ?

Yes, you are onto the second batch for the ribbon Switcher. Only Stand alone versions of the second batch are sent, because it's not the same PCBs and I had begun to work onto this version in waiting to receive PCBs for the ribbon version. It's a little bit long, I'm really sorry. I'll be able to work more onto them during the X-mas holidays!

Ohhhhhh no problem. .....i'm in love with my Amiga for over 26 years. ...so i could wait for this GREAT tuning hardware til it's ready. ........:):):);)
 
Hi! in ribbon version, I have added a little bit of solder in one component and now it is working. Will inspect the other this weekend. I bet that the package had a hard voyage.

I know that you do this not for feedback, but to share something with the Amiga lovers, but it is nice to have good feedback when you work hard to earn it

Wow! It's a good news for you! I'm really happy, but I have to check much better my PCBs.
I'm really sorry for the inconvenience. Onto which component did you add solder?
Please, keep me informed of the outcome.
