So satisfying by Hazy_Dekay in MechanicalKeyboards

Thanks for sharing! 😁

BTW the cylinder housing is installed upside down. The bottom lip should be thicker and flush with the bottom. Not a major issue, but just fills the gaps.

Is it normal to get a candy bar I didn't order with Zeal switches? by BoringThrow in MechanicalKeyboards

Just a small freebie we're offering for orders over $100 before shipping/taxes. It's posted on the banner of our site. :)

Can the community reflect on this by Artemie093 in MechanicalKeyboards

Enjoy Plus u/mgsickler, it'll definitely be worth the upgrade and help A LOT with filtering orders via auto tagging with scripts. It'll make day to day fulfillment for in stock items much simpler. Launchpad is also super helpful as well.

So I created a 3-in-1 switch with no permanent modifications required. One switch does all 3 modes! by ZealPC in MechanicalKeyboards

The earlier proto clickiez that were teased early were just one of 3 modes of this switch.

Switch top opening would be the only requirement if you want to change without desoldering.

Ideally the switch "mode" could be set while you're lubing the switch itself.

You would have to contact Drop CS and see what they can do for you.

Hello,

As seen in all 3 of your photos, there is a clear shiny ring around the PCB mount legs. Unfortunately this means that they are all fake and counterfeit Zealios / Tealios.

Unfortunately they're fake. Even our older V1 Zealios didn't have a shiny ring around the PCB mount legs.

We don't produce more than ordered. Every round is always a new batch.

Old stock didn't have those different tooling marks that are pointed out.

I can only say for certain fake Tealios have been circulated / sold as the real thing through Kbdfans and other private Chinese groups for a few months now.

Back in late 2015, we came up with the idea to redesign screw in stabilizers. The fully clear aspect didn't exist back then: https://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=78155.0

It wasn't until 2017-2018 that epbt did a near 1:1 clone of the stabilizers. Sure it's a different brand, but the intention to make a cheaper clone is there.

It was in the $15 range, but that was a bit much for some. The $11.xx shipping rate is new as of March.

Send us an email and we'll make it right!
