For the most up-to-date information about the status of our project, check our project updates on Indiegogo!

When will SKY be shipped?

SKY is still in the process of engineering and testing. As of Sept, functioning pre-production versions of SKY are working great in internal testing. Next step is to produce ~100 beta devices and get them out in the real-world for field testing in late Sept. Timelines depend on performance of the beta devices in field testing. We’ll keep all backers updating via IndieGogo updates.

What do I need to begin using my weather station?

1) Four AA Lithium batteries for the AIR – recommend Energizer Ultimate Lithium.
2) A common USB wall charger with minimum of 1amp output.
3) WeatherFlow Smart Weather app. Download free from the app stores.

Will AIR + WiFi hub function without SKY?

Yes. AIR and the WiFi hub will function just fine as a weather station. AIR provides a wealth of weather data including temp, humidity, pressure, lightning detection, dew point, heat index, air density, and more. (SKY can be easily added to your system later).

Why do I need to pay for shipping?

Due to a loop hole in the IndieGogo system, some backers may have been allowed to place an order without paying the required shipping fees. Don’t worry, you can pay for shipping here on BackerKit and your perk will be delivered as promised.

When should I expect my 'add-on- purchase to be delivered?

If you selected the WINDmeter or WEATHERmeter, we will deliver within a couple weeks from our fulfillment warehouses in US, Canada, or EU. If you selected to add-on another weather station, we will fulfill from our second production run later this fall 2017.

If I opt for my rewards to be shipped separately, will I be required to pay an additional shipping fee for the second shipment?

Nope! You can opt for a split shipment in your survey and won’t be required to pay any additional shipping fee :)

BackerKit FAQ

What is BackerKit?

BackerKit is a service that crowdfunded project creators use to keep track of hundreds to tens of thousands of backers—from shipping details, pledge levels, preferences and quantities, whether they have paid or had their card declined, special notes, and everything in between!

The BackerKit software and support team is independent from the campaign’s project team—BackerKit does not handle the actual reward shipping. For more information about the preparation or delivery status of your rewards, please check the project's updates page.

How does BackerKit work?

After the campaign ends, the project creator will send you an email with a unique link to your survey. You can check out a walkthrough of the process here.

I never received my invitation. How do I complete the survey?

The most common reasons for not receiving a survey email is that you may be checking an email inbox different from the email address you used to sign up with Kickstarter, Indiegogo or Tilt Pro account, or it may be caught in your spam filter.

Confirm that the email address you are searching matches the email address tied to your Kickstarter, Indiegogo, or Tilt Pro account. If that doesn’t work, then try checking your spam, junk or promotions folders. You can also search for "backerkit” in your inbox.

To resend the survey to yourself, visit the project page and input the email address associated with your Kickstarter, Indiegogo or Tilt Pro account.

How do I update my shipping address?

BackerKit allows you to update your shipping address until the shipping addresses are locked by the project creator. To update your address, go back to your BackerKit survey by inputting your email here.

When will my order be shipped, charged or locked?

That is handled directly by the project creator. BackerKit functions independently of the project itself, so we do not have control of their physical shipping timeline. If you want to check on the project’s status, we recommend reading over the project's updates page.

I completed the survey, but haven't received my rewards yet. When will they arrive?

As BackerKit does not actually handle any rewards or shipping, the best way to stay updated on the shipping timeline would be to check out the project's updates page.
