We are now accepting payments! Please visit this thread!

We are now ready to start taking Preorders for XIM 2 DIY kits!

Completed, pre built and ready to go XIM 2's will start to be made as soon as we ship out all the DIY kit orders, which won't take that long at all.

DIY kits come with the following:

  • XIM 2 board
  • Wire to complete install
  • USB Cable
  • CD with software and instructions

Details:

Pricing will be in the $50-55 range + shipping.

We want to get a feel of how many DIY boards we need to have made before we start accepting payments for preorders. Please post here to reserve your spot for a DIY kit!


More info:

Note: XIM 2 DIY is not for everyone. You must have good soldering skills to be able to complete it. XIM 2 has a total of 22 pads that use 30awg wire, and 6 wires for power and PC USB connections. With that said, XIM 2 DIY comes with greatly detailed instructions.

Feel free to ask any questions!

Picture the contents of the kit in your head  Grin. I don't have pictures of what the kit will look like. I've shown you a picture of the board...

Only authorized sellers will be allowed to sell completed XIM 2's, and this includes no DIY kits. We are doing DIY orders first, completed units later (not sure when).

That is correct. You will need no extra wire. 005 is the only one supported (which is what all current 360 wired controllers are).

Yes that won't work. You can use the DIY kit but you will need to purchase a 005 controller.

Buy a controller from target best buy wal mart etc. Swap out and take a 005 instead. Rinse and repeat for other needed controllers.

What's necessary to become an authorized seller? I've sold roughly 80 XIMs since I because a user in Feb'08. And I could have sold a whole lot more.
