Sooo, what will be the better option with dark blue UK78: complicated white alps with DSA Lightcycle or Zealios 78 with GMK Lazer?
Will the PCB support the Panda/Outemu hot swap sockets?

Edit seems that they work roughly the same but are smaller which could be advantageous based on what rozakiin said on modifier row.I am leaning towards getting some and modding them with a tactile switch.

Don’t want to sink all the moola if they won’t work.
Thanks for posting the dimensions!I'm doing an ALPS board and thus probably using Granite even though I don't love typing on DSA. (DSA + ALPS tactile > Cherry + MX tactile though.) Wondering if that marble royal glam wrest in TKL size will look stupid being about 3cm too narrow. What do you guys think? White marble + silver "fjell" case + granite sounds nice. But half an inch on each side sounds pretty uggo =/

There were a few people on Reddit saying that panda housing zelio stems were amazing but panda housings aren't made for RGB 😥. Are the purps made for RGB?

That blue! Almost regretting getting the full base now hahaAlso wishing I ordered an extra pcb and albs plate - I'm guessing you didn't order extras?

blue PCB.. awesome. Blue case, blue caps (nautilus), blue pcb.. but not blue switches. Halos if I like them, otherwise 78g pandalios.
If rozakiin is okay with a transfer, I'm willing to let go of my order. Thanks.Fjell Top CaseColour:446CDiffuserSS MX PlateAssembled PCBBumpons, screws, shipping of case(more details to come if this is doable)
Are bumpons/screws something we had to ask for separately?
Thanks for the update. Will the colour change cause any delays?
Hi everyone,I have just added UK78 support to the QMK RepoIf you need the Caps Lock LED to work on your UK78 then you will need to use this build as the online QMK tool http://kbfirmware.com/ configures the LED incorrectly otherwise here is the json for the online tool.

Is adding a baseline Winkeyless (7u spacebar and 1.5u mods) layout a big chore? I presume the uk78.h file needs another structure to create the proper matrix for the keybindings?

Has anyone opted out/wished to sell their spot? I'd love to get in on this :O
I can’t quite tell, is there enough room between the PCB and the bottom for screw in stabs? I looks like it, but ya know... measure twice and all.Edit: I’m guessing we’ll need to use washer or tape on the PCB for the screws as well.
I asked previously, either here or in the IC check thread. They will fit but yeah, you'll need some washers. I'll try find the ones I got on ebay
