So.....do we think ALK monitoring is coming "soon"???

I don't think I've ever wanted a feature this bad! Manual testing is so 2016.

They are already on the market.

Here is one.

There are a few more brands scheduled to be released in the next year if they stay on schedule.

I'm referring to the Neptune version

IMO I don't think Neptune is going to jump in this game. If by chance they did im sure it won't be for a couple of years. But I could be totally wrong. I would hope Neptune would correct me if I was wrong.

Terence already has it on this system. So it would seem they are in the game but on the sideline still.

Holy smokes I never saw that! Last thing that I read was Neptune was not getting into the dkh machine market. But I read that a while ago. When did they make the announcement that they were building one.

Ooops! I was on my phone and didn't see that this was in the Neptune section. I'm waiting to see if and when they release one. I haven't seen anything since they sent out the survey asking if people would be willing to pay over $1k for an alk monitoring system.

I think it's generally about a year after they first announce a product. I'm sure they are running lots of hours and testing against prototypes and pre-production models. They bought the IP from Jim Welsh and it will be up to Neptune to productionize it. I bought a KH Guardian until we see what Neptune puts out. The KH Guardian has many years in service at this point.
