My tracking hasn’t updated since arriving at the sort facility in Shenzhen. Been the same for four days.

22

Galvaniz pipe is what I will be using, very strong and don’t have to worry about rust! Mine is showing in Hong Kong also👍 Can’t wait for it to arrive!!

23

In the shipping/logistics business, it is not uncommon to send labels for a package days/weeks in advance. I would assume that the entire route for the shipment was notified before it left the factory…

Arrived at Sort Facility HONG KONG INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT----HONGKONG - CHINA

4 :2018/8/13 15:00:26 :grin:
Just a heads up for Aussie backers- Bunnings has 1.8 metre 32 mm OD gal pipe for 24 bucks, I’m going to use a star picket driver to set it into the ground-also packs of 4 ultimate lithium AA’s for about $15

mines in the same area as yours but you can get lithium batteries off EBay for $12 per pack of 4 if you want to wait a couple of days for postage

Thanks John, I must have missed the listing there-but hopefully the batteries will last 12 months and WF did have a solar option planned which would be the ultimate solution for SKY- as it will be going on a bigass pole and I dont have a cherry picker to get it down :smile:
Hopefully mine might get to actually sample some rain in the near future as it is really pretty dry here.

Hi, I hope WF does bring out the solar option it would certainly make life easier.

Yep the rains a bit of a problem I am at Wattamondara a very small village 15 k sth Cowra nsw. and this year we have only had 168mm…av annual is about 600-800in a good year but we’ve had two very much under av previously … anyway we are getting about 5mm each week just enough to keep the place in a state of green drought

Regards

Is any body else who’s station was shipped in this latest batch has a tracking status still saying “processing”? Mine is being shipped to NZ.

39

Mine hung there for a few days but then moved pretty quickly,maybe there are less flights to your country than Australia and the logistics are a bit slower?
Actually got through customs today and is in transit on Fastway couriers (I thought it would be Auspost), hope yours moves soon.
