The sales of the A-129-1/2 became very poor during the last few years (less than 5 per month). In addition the VCAs used in the A-129-2 (CEM3381) are no longer available. So we decided to stop the A-129 series as a redesign does not make sense because of the poor sales.

We have one last A-129-1/2 combo with blue LEDs left which you could order from us directly. Please address your order to me directly ( hardware@... ) as the sales office would tell you that the modules are sold out.

Best wishes
