Where to find out about upcoming hardware releases?

[Dmxr100]

As a noob, one thing I worry about is buying a piece of hardware, only to find out a few days later that a newer version has just come on to the market... It almost happened to me just yesterday when I ordered some Kangertech 1.5 coils for a mini protank. Fortunately, the shop owner contacted me to inform me that the manufacturer had stopped making those versions and had just released a newer, better version, which he offered to supply to me for the same price! (Thanks Kurt!)

So it made me wonder... where can I find out what hardware is due to be released soon?? I'd rather wait a couple of weeks for the latest model than waste money now on something which is going to be out of date in a couple of weeks.

How do you keep up-to-date?

I'd say it's about half Facebook, half manufacturer websites.

Also, newer doesn't always mean better. Sometimes, if you have something that works and you can still find the parts you need... why change it? It is good to keep up with what is out there, just don't think that you have to use the newest thing to get results. For me, they key is safe, effective and I like it.
