So the Large 2.1 repeater is now Complete.
I took the information i learned from the flex repeater using capacitive plates and added it to the 2.1L. This is now the final release of the new V3L repeater (Version 3 Large).
The new V3L went from a 2 Layer FR4 board on the 2.1L to a 4 Layer board to have 2 dedicated layers for the capacitive plates.
Thickness went from .0220in (.56mm) of the 2.1L to .0290in (.74mm) on the new V3L
The rest of the Dimensions stay the exact same.
So How does it stack up against the V2.1L?
V2.1L
V3L
I have a lot of struggles with these repeaters and the capacitors that i get them assembled with. The capacitors have a tolerance of +/-10% usually and it throws off the tuning so i often have to test each unit. I dont “need” to be exact but within the range 13.56mhz but i make it a point to try to get tuning as dead on as possible. I cant do that with the capacitors when they have variances. With the capacitive plates i have much more control of the capacetence that is delivered and i get much more consistent results with the runs i have done.
These are now available. They will be replacing the V2.1’s as i am thrilled with their performance.
Also these will be available on Amazon shortly for a significant price hike (have to account for amazon fees). The best place for biohackers to get these is through me directly.
Field Detectors
Also since i posted this in the DT Club (Which i reccomend you join if you havent yet), i also have went ahead and turned all of my failed V2.1S repeaters into Field Detector’s/Repeater Placement Locators.
These are great to find the perfect location too place your new RSP or my MFGC repeater stickers or the V2.1S as it can show you the area of the device the field is strongest. mark the edges and drop your sticker right in place.
