Through the past several months of speaking with our awesome and good-looking customers, we’ve noticed that there are a few questions about Luxi (and/or the app that goes with it) that seem to come up time and again...probably because they’re very good questions.

You’re always quite welcome to contact us with any questions or concerns, of course. We love hearing from you guys; it helps us improve the product, because we get to see...

So we’re really optimistic about getting them in the post to you starting the first week of August. I’ve brought on a great new hire, Jarrod. He’s smart and he’s fast and he’s going to work all...

We shipped the machined (hand-finished) Luxis out on May 30, so the super-early adopters should have theirs now. We’re especially grateful to you guys for your investment in the Luxi project.
