Basement Beacon Update: We're Getting Closer to Kickstarter!

Hi everyone!

I wanted to share some exciting news about the progress of the Basement Beacon!

Beta testing is underway!

Our first group of beta testers has received their Basement Beacon units and is now putting them to work in their own homes for the past month. They've already been providing me with valuable feedback about the device, the mobile app, and the overall experience.

This is an important milestone because it gives me the opportunity to see how Basement Beacon performs in real-world conditions, identify anything that needs improvement, and make sure the final product is ready for customers.

Another major milestone: Assembly is complete!

I'm also excited to report that our assembler has completed assembling the Basement Beacon kits! This is a huge step forward in preparing for production.

The next step is receiving the final assembly cost per unit. This is one of the last major pieces of information I need to determine the retail price of Basement Beacon and finalize the plans for our Kickstarter campaign.

So, when is Kickstarter launching?

We're getting closer!

Once I have the final assembly costs and have incorporated the feedback from our beta testers, I'll be in a much better position to establish a launch date and share the pricing with everyone.

I know many of you have been patiently following the development of Basement Beacon, and I truly appreciate your continued interest and support.

What started as an idea to help homeowners monitor their sump pumps and protect their basements is getting closer to becoming a reality. It's been an exciting journey, and I'm looking forward to sharing the next chapter with you.

Stay tuned — more updates are coming!

Thank you again for being part of the Basement Beacon journey!
