NOTICE: BalBots cannot be ordered at this time! Please read on...
Dear BalBots customers,
As many of you know, we experienced a very unfortunate fire at our headquarters in 2006 which wiped out our inventory and some production equipment. As a result, order fulfillment and technical support are currently unavailable. Please do NOT attempt to place any orders in any fashion, as we will not be able to process or ship them. However, if you would like to be put on the waiting list to order products, please contact us and we'll be glad to add you to the list!
While I have been desiring to rebuild BalBots since the fire, other business priorities have kept me from being able to do so. I have heard from you and I know there are many loyal BalBots customers waiting for production to be up and running so you can place your orders. I am saddened that you have had to keep waiting. Therefore, I have decided that if the right buyer comes along, I will be willing to sell the BalBots business to them. If any of you would like to take over the business and will be dedicated to serving customers very well, then please use the "contact us" form. Serious inquiries only, please! If the business does not sell soon, I plan to ramp up production again myself as soon as business priorities allow. One way or another, I want BalBots to ship again. And with your help we may be able to make it happen sooner.
In the mean time, don't forget to contact us if you want to be notified when we are shipping again!
Thank you for your support and understanding.
Sincerely,
John
President
Swope Designs, Inc.

What's a BalBot?
BalBot is the first-ever commercially available balancing robot
kit. If you're looking for a fun robot kit, or have robotic ideas you want to
try out, a BalBot is a great platform to start with. The fact that it balances
like an inverted pendulum gives it a personality of its own, and makes it great
for classroom demonstrations and for inspiring students to learn about
electronics and robotics-- We have found that our own BalBots turn heads
wherever we take them! Technical and non-technical people alike are very often
excited to see it drive around and usually have no shortage of questions to ask.
Besides being fun, the BalBot can be expanded to nearly infinite
possibilities. So whether you want to make it navigate autonomously, operate by
remote, or use it as a mobile platform for miscellaneous sensors and
electronics, BalBots are well suited for the
task. |
