Generation 2!

I would reach out to orders@rachio.com and they can handle this question.

Thanks!

:cheers:

The upgrade is available through 3/2 (tomorrow!). To be eligible, you had to have an installed Gen 1 prior to 2/2.

I’ve been holding tight, and I know it’s only been “Spring” for a week or so :wink: , but any more specific idea when the 8 zone version might ship? I’ve got cash in hand but only 5 zones, so the 16 feels a little wrong…

I’d hold tight and not get the 16.

Believe middle of April is when will be available for sale. We are shipping to distribution channels.

Hope this helps.

Ready to pull the trigger on the 8 zone. Checking Amazon every morning to see if it is there.

I’ll post here when available on Amazon and our site (better margins :smile:) .

Software has been released to app stores, being sent to distribution channels (on trucks).

Think the target is mid April, so should time well with our 2.5 release that I hope to submit today to the app store :wink:

I’m being told April 12th is the date, so barring any unforeseen issues it seems like that is what we are currently targeting.

Do you expect the retail price to be $200? I recently purchased an 8 zone 1st gen Rachio. I was about to install it last weekend when I discovered you’ll have an 8 zone 2nd gen coming out soon. I’m thinking of returning my 1st gen but the last day I can return it is tomorrow (Fri). Not sure if I necessarily “need” the upgrades of the 2nd gen as my control unit is inside my garage and I only have 3 zones, but I’d prefer the newer version if the cost isn’t too much higher. Any info would be appreciated as I have to make this decision soon…thanks.

Even cheaper, $199!

LOL. If you PM me I’ll get you some free Rachio swag. :wink:

Ah! Given I only have 3 zones and am not even using my controller yet, I could have saved myself $50 by waiting an extra 2 weeks to buy. Oh well, hind sight is 20/20 right?
