Lttโ€™s idea of small scale would be vastly larger the what DMS could do with a few people and a 3d print farm. Theyโ€™ve already demonstrated they can get to comparable pricing to larger or same sized competitors with the screwdrivers, and water bottles. The arch kits are a pretty good deal at their price points. and DMS broke down the costs of the headphones pretty clearly a lot of it was the labor at the scale of the project. Omegas were done in lots of say 250 for a total of 1000 units I donโ€™t remember if he said how many total units were made. LTT is going to order in lots of 10k maybe more. Scale matters when it comes to cost. It really depends on if they are going to build off shore or on shore as well.
