Hi,
Thinking of upgrading to a V3 PowerPod with the main reason being I am hoping using a Pitot tube would reduce the amount of times the PowerPod stops working in the rain. I was hoping to get one from Probikekit.com in the UK but they do not offer the Pitot tube as an accessory. I would buy a Pitot tube from you directly but for an item costing 9 dollars the shipping is 80 dollars!! Can it not be sent for cheaper?
I was considering buying the V3 using your trade in option as this is cheaper but I am bit concerned the import and tax would not make it worthwhile. Also buying from the UK makes it easier to deal with warranty issues.
Regards
Pitot Tube
Re: Pitot Tube
No worries, we can ship the pitot tube by first class mail. I'm not sure what the cost is but Tom will let you know; it is a lot less than $80!!!

I can't assess the economics of import tax vs trade-in value.

Re: Pitot Tube
I had the same question. I am from Canada. I want to buy a pitot tub from your website, $9. but the shipping is $11, which is more than the product itself. 

Re: Pitot Tube
We don't make any money from shipping. This is what it costs us to ship the pitot tube by first class mail to an international destination.kennyliu10 wrote: ↑Thu Jul 25, 2019 4:52 pm I had the same question. I am from Canada.
