I know the global supply chain issues & chip shortages have hit Audiomoth/GroupGets/LabMaker hard, but is there any sort of realistic estimated time that the next GroupGets campaign will be? I keep seeing it pushed further and further back, now into 2023? Is there any more concrete timeframe? Like a target month?
I know the Hydromoth campaigns just finished up so didn't know if there would be a focus back to Audiomoths (I realize the recorder is fundamentally the same, case is the big difference & I need the terrestrial case).
Thanks!
Hi Carly, Yes, there is little to no global microcontroller stock at the moment, suppliers are estimating that AudioMoth chips will be back by 2023. We can't give accurate estimates, but are hopeful for a new batch of AudioMoths by early next year with the availability of the new supply. We will prioritise AudioMoth 1.2.0 manufacture when the chip supplies do come back. For cases, GroupGets and LabMaker have plenty of the terrestrial and underwater versions if you need them. Thanks,
