Has anyone received their white ones yet?

Verifying as well, no notifications yet for my white one from DHL or zFrontier.

Any US customers who bought NEON, get refunded for reduced price without tritium vials? I still haven't lol...

There is a 100% chance we won't get refunded for the tritium.

So I ordered a white neon and just got a message from DHL that it will arrive on 2/20. I'll try and post pictures when it arrives.

As of today DHL messaged me that my white with purple flash is arriving on the 19th.

I received no notification from either DHL nor zFrontier, but my white case + black flash appeared today to Sweden, no import fees (which is magic).

The build quality is exquisite! Super impressed.

To be fair I ordered on 30/08 so I'm probably the last in line

Looks like there's going to be delays for some of our white orders. Though I'd rather get a good product a bit later than something I'll be unhappy with. Email from zFrontier:

Hi,

We are here to inform you that we have finish shipping 70% of the Grid 600 orders and we are sorry to inform you that this is as many as we could go as for now.

The delay of the remaining orders are due to the high defective rate of White Powder Coating finish (scratches, tints, uneven finish etc. on the surface) and these will not pass our QC standards and Grid is recalling them back to the factory to fix the issue. All the remaining orders are white kits.

Here's a list of orders that we have yet to fulfill. If your order number or one of your order numbers ends in these 4 numbers, your order or orders are delayed. Please be patient, we will ship them out to you once the cases get back to us.

Grid and us are working hard to get the boards to you as soon as possible and will work out a plan to compensate these unfortunately-delayed orders for the extra waiting time.

Since the grid is tray mount, you'll build the board, plate and all, outside of the board, then drop it in and screw it down. Make sure you connect the daughter board before installing the board into the case.

As far as I can tell, there are zero blemishes. The material is really nice and honestly once of the nicest boards I've owned. It's on par with stuff from Rama Works.

They are probably the same brightness, I dunno tho: https://imgur.com/gallery/fKl2Rqv. They definitely get blown out in even medium light. Still think they are cool as **** tho.

agbockus · « **Reply #196 on:** Sun, 10 March 2019, 18:27:21 »

Hey there fellow grid owners.

I got a grid600 and decided to swap to my flash module. While moving it around my desk, I held both of the buttons on the module down and I believe I have reset the module. However, there's no explanation as to what in the world that means, though now it only displays only white.

How do I use the RGB effects on this module after a reset? Is my only solution to solder the points on the PCB and re-flash it (they have this information on the gridishere.com website)? I don't want to have to do that and it seems that a simple button combination shouldn't make the RGB strip cease all other functions, but I'm at a loss.

Anyone have any help or advice for this?
