Unfortunately, I've been adding things to the circuit without really keeping track. The biggest chunk of the cost is probably the power components. Of course, all the little things add up quick - I think I had an estimate of 300-400 for everything so far. Depends on how crazy you want to get with a box and switches and everything. It'd be nice to add an LED display or something, but that adds more cost. I think if we're under 500 for something very functional, it's a winner. I think I also mentioned that lower voltage/lower amperage would be easier and cheaper to do.
At some point, when this design gets to a full prototype, it'll be easier to put together a bill of materials. as of now, all i have are estimates.
