Important Notice: 5.0 BETA Firmware

You have selected 5.0 BETA firmware. BETA firmware is a pre-release version that includes new features and improvements, while rare, BETA firmware could contain bugs or usability issues. Please consider the following information before proceeding:

What is BETA Firmware?

  • Early Access: BETA firmware allows early access to new features that are not yet available in Stable Releases.
  • Testing and Feedback: It is intended for users who are willing to provide feedback and help identify any bugs or issues.
  • Potential Risks: There may be minor bugs, feature limitations, or performance issues.

Important Considerations

  • Are you comfortable troubleshooting and reporting any issues?
  • Do you understand the steps required to revert to a Stable Release if needed?
  • Do you have time to update your firmware more frequently, knowing that some updates may require a wireless reprogrammer?

Recommended Action

If you are not familiar with BETA testing, we recommend selecting the Stable Release version instead for the highest level of stability and support. For more details on our firmware release process, please review our complete guide here. If you have questions or need further assistance, please reach out to our support team.

How long does it take to receive MJG initiators (and what is the difference between USPS and FedEx)?

When ordering MJG initiators, it is essential to factor in the shipping time. This is even more important around major holidays, as shipping times can be extended due to higher-than-average shipping volumes with USPS and FedEx.

Due to hazmat shipping regulations, we are not able to ship MJG Initiators outside of the United States at this time.

Shipping Option Delivery Time Surcharge, in addition to standard shipping fee
FedEx Ground Hazardous Shipping 1 - 5 Business Days $25.50
FedEx Priority Overnight Hazardous Shipping Next business day $80
USPS Parcel Select Hazardous 2-3 Weeks, depending on the location $3

MJG Initiators are non-returnable once shipped due to hazmat shipping regulations. All initiator sales are final.
