tigersharkdude,

LED cables are restricted to 3ft only at this time. :( Heatshrink style is also only available with gold plated ends. Price of LED cables are $25+shipping

Non heatshrinked ends would look like this:

Let me find some string and see if 3' will work.

is 3' the total length or just the cable (not including ends)?

End to end is 3ft and a bit more. I'll confirm the length with you in 3-4hrs. If another owner of my LED cables could give an exact dimension, feel free to chime in. :)

in for total length. I just measured and 3' works but not enough slack for comfort, 3'2" or 3'3" would likely work

Good news, total length after both USB ends are plugged in is 3'3" :)

Got some beautiful Zeal cables today.  I love them--so nice!  Thank you, Zeal!  My first custom cables (other than the one I made myself out of a shoe string and a stock Filco cable  ;) )

Neon turquoise + clear and clear/black

Pretty well actually.  The cables are a bit more blue, but without a lot of direct light the difference is minimal.  All the blue stuff tends to look more teal at my desk, which is a-ok with me :thumb:

Yeah I love how the clear casing cables basically 'change' colour when different light hits it :P

My red led cable goes from pink -> orange -> red depending on the light :)

Hey Zeal,

Cable finally came in today! The wait was worth it, cable is awesome. Here are some crummy pics. It's too sunny at the moment, so these pics don't do the cable justice.

Awesome! Not sure why Vermont took 2 business days to deliver though, probably because it has a really small population. At least the cable arrived _really_ early.  :thumb:

Is there any kind of an adapter for keyboards with routing tracks underneith like the CM Storm and Ducky cases? I dont know if the paracord or LED cables will accomidate them. I really want to get a UV pink LED cable and possibly a rose pink paracord cable but Im very leary about them not fitting in the tracks..

Both of my single sleeved plastic/paracord mini usb cables fit in the routing tracks of Ducky boards. :)

LED cable might fit if you route it down the middle (I'll double check tomorrow), but do note that they are restricted to 3ft.

Thanks very much from Nova Scotia :D I'l be sure to place an order eventually when I get the layout I want figured out. Gunna go for a cyan (or teal) and black or pink keyboard so once I have that settled I'l get the cables to match. :3

Just curious, why not order a shorter TRRS cable so you have less/no bundle in the middle?

I may want to spread the Ergodox out to 2-3 feet at some point, so I need some slack. I could have gotten it cut down to 3.5-4 feet instead of 6, but since I'll have a bundle most of the time anyway, it doesn't really matter.

Zeal also mentioned he can make coiled TRRS cables, which I may order in the future and would be the ideal solution in theory. However, he said that the hand coiling is not really meant to be stretched multiple feet, so I am experimenting with a couple of coiled USB cables before I buy the more expensive coiled TRRS.

I don't normally have USB 3.0 cables in stock. I do have both USB A & Micro USB 3.0 connector ends though. Please PM me if you'd like to discuss further details regarding length, sleeving type, colour options etc. Lead times would be ~2-3 business days.

It /can/ fit, but I wouldn't recommend it, as LED cables aren't "round" enough to sit properly in the routing hole.

So basically, the cable would plug into your Ducky, but would twist a bit to sit "straighter", since it's flat, to fit through the hole.
I'd recommend LED cables for keyboards that have the usb ports exposed on the outside.

Not a problem. I want my customers to be happy with their cable. :)

Make it double sleeved with plastic. It's still very flexible and makes the color stand out more.

I got two cables, one white paracord and one white plastic. The paracord one was supposed to be small and flexible. After they arrived I realized the paracord was a darker color. The one that was covered in plastic looked much better and was not noticeably stiffer. Now that I know better I wish I would have chosen to get them both doubled sleeved.

Do you still do the LEDs in the cables?
If so, which colours do you have?

The LED cables come in red blue and green and are limited to 3 feet.

Does anyone know what red LEDs with UV pink looks like?
I just want to know if it brings out the pink, or just looks like it adds red.

Sorry for the late-ish reply, FrostyToast. Thanks Kayla for answering some questions :)

Under normal lighting, it looks like the UV pink sleeve with some pinkish-red light. When all the lights are out, it looks exactly like my red LED cable with clear sleeve.
