A couple of my switches actuate just a hair short of touching them. All I did was open them up and add an LED inside, what could I have messed up to cause this?

Did you accidentally bend the leaf contacts? Try taking the switch tops off and see what happens when you press down on the stem.

Received mine today.

I've never had the opportunity to pick up any Clears, so I was blown away by these. Perfect combo of tactility and spring weight.

Absolutely off tap mate, good work.

Looks like I'll finally be moving away from my Greens.

Will most likely wait until Mira to put any in a board.

Though I've been planning on doing a mod project on one of my Ducky YOTD boards so maybe I'll put them in there.

Either way, thanks a lot Zeal. Love your work.

That's what I was thinking I did, but they're so tiny I can't see very well what's going on in there. I was being super careful. It was only a small number of switches and more likely my own ****up so I just desoldered them and swapped them in with a few fresh ones and the Face still functions.

Very eager to try these out, leaving Greens is asking a lot hence they better have that special bounce back that all Green and Grey Switch lovers like.

I am sure Zeal will be by later to comment, but if you ordered lube (specifically spring I think) - it hasn't arrived yet. He also just recently got his thick and thin, so that may affect it. I am sure he has a reason and wouldn't worry.

I got two separate shippings with different zeal switches. One has lube in it... But that one without lube.

Firstly, I read reviews and it said that unlubed version will be better so I just order thin and thick lube. But it turns out that the review samples is a bit different from mass produce version (according to Zeal and gateron) , other people suggest that we need to lube spring for the best feeling.

If I order zeal spring lube at this time, it will be expensive because of shipping fee. Can you suggest a place where I can find these lube with good price in Asia?
