Shes in Felixstowe 
Re: Idiot's guide to a self build battery
Good eh?

I'm home until 15th May, hopefully delivered before that departure date.

Also hopefully get a tracking number this week so we know what's what.

Will update once i hear.

Predicting 1 day offload, 3 days customs & clear port, 3 days for courier to get up here. That would be Sat 4th May so hoping for Monday 6th (ding dong)!
Let us know when you receive Robert?

Of course. I think I mentioned that my shipment popped up in my DPD account for a few days & then vanished again. Most odd ….

Yeah, I'm guessing the word got back to China but wrong location and a button was maybe 🫸 early?Lincs Robert wrote: ↑Sun Apr 28, 2024 9:01 amJoeboy wrote: ↑Sun Apr 28, 2024 8:48 amGood eh?![]()
