How are you getting that cheap of a priority mail shipping fee?

Dreamre · « **Reply #3 on:** Thu, 28 January 2016, 22:02:17 »

Will these for sure be plate mounted? Or will it be more of a gamble?

All switches work with a plate, it's just whether or not they have the two extra pegs at the bottom to clip into the PCB for extra stability. Even if they were PCB mounted you could still easily clip off the legs with wire cutters.

My bad, I thought I had updated it. Should be $6.80

These are plate mounted, I haven't been able to find PCB mounted ones.

Are there any price drops after 100, say if we hit 250? I ordered a generous quantity to get you started.

Also, just curious, how are you getting such cheap Canadian shipping? Are these not sourced from the US?

no price drops, the distributor is pretty firm on the price(I actually made a quote request for all of their stock, they didn't budge on price at all). i'm sending it as a first class mail package from the US which is surprisingly cheap.

I'm pretty sure I placed an order a couple days ago for a couple switches. I know the invoices haven't been sent yet but I ordered through my phone and I'm not sure if I actually submitted the order... Can you confirm real quick?
Sorry for the troubles

lashiel · « **Reply #21 on:** Thu, 04 February 2016, 17:37:19 »

So, I love the idea of these, and will likely grab a few, but I'm curious what keys people tend to use them on? I guess caps lock is the obvious answer, but I've gotten into the habit of remapping caps lock to ctrl or fn on most of my boards.

Make sure the PCB supports locked switches. A lot of customs can't read the locked Caps Lock, so some just use them on Scroll Lock or something. If they can't use 'em on Caps Lock, they're a novelty.

I could see it as an "auto run" key for gaming, or sprint/crouch lock. You could also use them as a CTRL or FN lock, especially if you need to use the "numpad" or arrow keys frequently on a ~60% board.

I'm personally thinking of using it for a mute button, if that is actually possible...

Hi,

How do we know if the order form has been submitted? I did not receive any form of confirmation. Have ordered a few days ago.

Thanks,
