Mine was shipped via SF-Express, their tracking is trash though. It always has one of the following problems: tracking server down; can't load captcha; the whole site is down.
Mine arrived today. Took a total of 12 days. Went through customs in 2 days though.
Okay thanks, guess I'll wait and pray.

Has anyone tried putting holtites into the pcb? Or does know if these will work:
LED – 6-1437514-6
Switch – 8134-HC-8P2

I wanna make sure before ordering a bunch.
Would you guys advise against holtites in the first place? And if so why?

i always advise against them, i've had nothing but bad experiences with them, and it's faster to just solder switches in and commit instead of being non-committal

It's cheaper to buy a chinese desoldering station like the ZD-915 than it is to equip 2 boards with holtites and the chinese desoldering station will even work on all of your boards.

Give that man some info. Why do you think so? Why do you post a comment without content?

I advise against reading Puddsy's posts at this point.

it takes 1 hour to solder/desolder/resolder a keyboard of this size at most if you have a desoldering iron

it took me 4 kinds, and 5 hours to install holtites on a 60% because the holtite compatibility spreadsheet is a lying piece of ****

and then i liked the first switches i put in it so it didn't matter

that was just the first time i tried them, it's only gone downhill from there

Apart from what Puddsy said, pulling a switch out of a holtite and a plate once clipped in is also a biatch. Pulling a switch out of a sock like the ones included in Outemu Ice and Panda switches is worst. I'd recommend switch top modding before holtites/condom sock thing, but I don't think TGR plates support switch top removal.

Has anyone tried putting holtites into the pcb? Or does know if these will work:
LED – 6-1437514-6
Switch – 8134-HC-8P2

I wanna make sure before ordering a bunch.
Would you guys advise against holtites in the first place? And if so why?

i always advise against them, i've had nothing but bad experiences with them, and it's faster to just solder switches in and commit instead of being non-committal

Give that man some info. Why do you think so? Why do you post a comment without content?

I advise against reading Puddsy's posts at this point.
It's easy to say that Holtites are not the best idea once you have tried a few of them at least. With the way they stick out at the bottom of the PCB after insertion, it's more than likely that movement shock, a small push while assembling, and other possibilities would dislodge a Holtite rather easily. It works for some people, but frankly, it's one of those things that wasn't created to be optimal for the PCBs we work with. I tried some on my Zeal60, where they would arguably fit perfectly. They do fit well, but it was far too easy to take them off. With that kind of stability, I would rather commit to a switch choice and simply desolder when the time comes to make a big change.

Holtites are trash.

Just get a desoldering pump or wick.

Lose the holtites and deal with your commitment issues.

Also, desoldering ain't so bad.
