The current target for the entire kit is $300 (PCR, centrifuge, shaking incubator, gel electrophoresis box, micropipette + chemistry/biology/plastics for 3+ experiments). This may turn out to be too low for the first run, but we're aiming at making this as affordable as possible while maintaining a quality that's good enough for day-to-day citizen science work.
