[GB] Fox Lab - Time 80 Reforged

[Kohsta]

Senter, thanks for everything you do. When I order I won't change I promise 

[geshuni]

Did anyone not receive email confirmation besides from paypal?

Same thing here. I've screenshotted the confirmation screen just to be sure.

Update on this: I have email filtering at my host (that's hosting my emails), which flagged the order.
Check carefully your spam directory and if you have any other service providers along the way.

[eternalbuzz]

GB will be re-opened at 12:00 PM ET 09/02 and will last for at least 24 hours to make sure everyone who wants it can get it.
Again, take your time and place your orders carefully. I don't want to deal with so many change requests anymore.

Here is the Count down

Does this mean it is unlimited GB now and not 500 unit cap? Thank you!

[Curin Derwin]

I'd like to compare gold to Brass weight. Which image is which?

Thank you!

[noodleman]

gonna be my second foxlab board after the Key65!  Very excited for it!

[Brixzz]

Is it correct, that the Time-badge is available in Brass E-Clear finish, but the LED cover, which is directly next to it, is not?
How different does Gold look from Brass E-Clear? I will probably get a brass plate and brass weights, matching the badge and the LED-cover would be great. But different materials for the Time-Badge and LED-Cover might look a bit weird. Hopefully you can help me in the next 25h

I'd assume, based off the IC, that the brass is a darker, shiner tone than the gold.

Probably anodized gold (could just be lighter due to lighting conditions)


Probably brass



You can always look at other keyboards who've offered similar material choices for reference

[Brixzz]

Thanks! I checked out the build stream of the time 80 reforged prototype: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5KJHDm0FzD8&t=410s (Timestamped)
And the Key65 IC had a picture of an e-clear brass plate: https://i.imgur.com/YSd0LK0.jpg https://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=102609.0

I was mainly wondering if/why there was no option to pick e-clear brass as the material for the LED-cover

Also, does the plate support 6,25U spacebars, or just 7u?

[paperassgasket]

Are there renders of all the colors somewhere?
I was expecting pictures on the site to help me choose a color.

For example what does the aluminum gold weight look like vs the brass?

I know theres an album of a few renders: https://imgur.com/a/9CQCPgP but it doesn't appear to include all the options.

[Edaindil]

Anyone else having issues checking out via paypal?

[Kaiishiou]

Anyone else not able to process their payment on paypal?  I've never had this problem before, and its so frustrating because I really want this board!  AAHHHHHHHHHHH

[Edaindil]

Lol, is this the secret plan for geekhack to gain registered users?

payment issue on an exclusive message channel to vendor. Genius

Hi all, thank you for your support. We've received more orders than we expected.

However, I've received too many emails requesting order cancellation or changes. I've been working on the requests for the whole day but haven't finished it yet. For every order refunded, the 2% transaction will still be billed to me, so please take your time and make your decision carefully.

I decide to close the links temporarily today so that I can take care of the current orders first. The links will be available again in 24 hours.

If you have any questions, please send an email to runninghack@gmail.com or foxlabkeyboard@163.com but not both. Don't send messages on the forum.

Thanks.

I forgot to order the badge, so can I change my addition PCB to combo Plate + Badge after checked out?

I like that you message on GH even though the post you quote says:

My bank flagged the payment as suspicious transaction and they called me to confirm it.

I suspect the seller's name might have hit some sort of keyword when the bank was doing its automated screening

[Minam]

Are the orders that were successfully placed yesterday still good to go? I assume so but just making sure.

[cascadingdepth]

Unable to process payment with PayPal (even after addressing a PayPal fraud alert by text) like some others:

We aren't able to process your payment using your PayPal account at this time. Please go back to merchant and try using a different payment method.

A shame because it really is a beautiful board/design. Hope that this payment processing issue w/ PayPal gets resolved (or another processor is added to the foxlab site).

[GraemeG84]

Just got my answeer. There is no ISO.

Yeah shame - would have been in if there was ISO

[wybaugh]

I'm a huge watch enthusiast as well as keyboards so this is a perfect fit!

I ordered a blue with brass weight.  Wondering if I should have gone with gold?

[matrixzj]

really a nice design. should I take the first tkl ?

I'm sure they are, unless you were refunded I don't think there is anything to worry about.

[TieuNgu]

I just paid with Paypal just fine. Not sure why a few people are having issues though.

Could be paying with PayPal balance vs paying via a bank.

[noideawhatsgoing]

Mine was 1/2 balance, 1/2 bank account. I got a receipt and everything from PayPal; however, about 30 seconds ago I got a phone call from PayPal fraud detection. I accidentally hung up, so we'll see how this plays out. Hopefully Senter will let us know if payment is not going through.

I paid everything via my credit card. Gotta collect those points...

[Souzoku]

Does hotswap layout have the normal caps lock or stepped capslock?

Edit: Looks like from the image it's normal caps

[outerspace]

Do they charge foreign transaction fees for transactions processed by Paypal using linked credit cards?

Sometimes they do. I got charged for the cyberboard but not sure about this one.

[eternalbuzz]

Is this now an unlimited GB and no longer 500?

[thanatic]

Is the Final word on the PCB hotswap PCB does NOT have per key RGB and fixed 7U spacebar & Solderable HAS per key RGB?


On the website it looks like the opposite. The variable/solderable PCB looks like no RGB where the Fixed/Hotswap PCB looks to have per key RGB

[Horgix]

This board is really gorgeous. Such a nice bottom design!

However, like other people previously in this thread, I would like to have a bit more details on the colors/material combos before ordering:

- Is it possible to clearly identify which pics are Brass and which are Gold Aluminium?
- Any way to have a bit more combo renders? Like gray case bottom with brass weight, more badge colors, etc

Thanks for all the hard work <3

[estevaom]

What is the total weight of the board with alu weight vs brass weight? My decision depends on this answer.

[Lastpadawan]

This board is really lovely, I am a huge fan of the gears and the design.

Hopefully I can snag one next week if it's still around.

[24kpurehandsome]

Just snagged the board of my dreams. I am super excited!! 

[Gnarled]

Uh oh, lol. Did senter's PayPal account get restricted?

[Jolty]

This looks super!
I'm happy to see another top quality product from your brand :)


Edit:
It seems like paypal is having errors I'm trying to order and I'm getting this message.

"PayPal checkout for this store is currently experiencing problems. Please try another payment method."

wondering if I can still order this or if I'm late.


Thank you,

Thank you,

Just checked with Fox:

Some Paypal issue was occurred, but it has been resolved now. Please replace your order. If anything wrong with it, please let us know

Hmmm, still experiencing issues.
I did try on a different browser I'm getting the same issue.

[isaackang7]

Still have not received a reply from senter about the change.

Anyone knows if the last pic of the album (https://imgur.com/a/9CQCPgP , the black version) is a gold aluminium or brass weight?

Also, is there any pic somewhere of the grey powder-coating bottom with weight?

[eternalbuzz]

So, uh... is it unlimited now or........

[senter]

The GB has been reopened for almost 1 day. Just a reminder, I'll close the GB in around 90 minutes.
We've got enough orders. Everyone wanted to buy should have already placed the order.
I'll start replying messages and emails later today.

[prognostics]

Picked one up, made sure to place both orders within one transaction. 

[lovidore]

In! Good luck Senter!

[3yatt]

Just wanted to say thank you to Senter for giving everyone who wanted this board a realistic opportunity of getting it. This will be my first >$500 board and I'm really happy to support someone who is so on top of communication and busted their ass to alleviate any anxiety around this GB. I look forward to the next board. Love you!

I tried to find the layout by going through Senter's posts, but I don't see whether the hotswap is 7u like the Key65 or 6.25u. It looks like the plates are not universal, so I am thinking it is all (hopefully) 6.25u. The build streams all looked like 6.25u and since we only have one plate layout option, I'd have to assume it is all 6.25u.

Not a whole lot of information out there, at least not compared to the Key65 GB. Regardless, I bought one of these because the design is beautiful and Senter is one of the best GB runners in the whole community.

Someone on the prev page had said the hotswap was 7u.
