When I bought the [Elevation Dock](https://lesterchan.net/blog/2012/10/23/elevation-dock/), it was shipped with iPhone 30-pin connector, because the Kickstarter project was planned before the new Apple Lightning Connector was announced. [Elevation Lab](http://www.elevationlab.com/) has been hard at work since then to manufacture the Lightning adapter for the Elevation Dock.

Finally on the [8th November 2012](http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/hop/elevation-dock-the-best-dock-for-iphone/posts/347014), the Lightning adapter is production ready! The Lightning adapter cost US$15 (S$18.30) and shipping cost US$7.22 (S$8.80), paid a total of US$22.22 (S$27.10) for it. This bring the total cost of the Elevation Dock to S$148. At that price, it is very expensive for a dock, but the quality is awesome and it is Made in the US product. The dock is future proof as the adapter is exchangeable as long as [Elevation Lab](http://www.elevationlab.com/) is able to produce it.
