I'm not sure R1 is completed yet.

oneproduct · « **Reply #54 on:** Wed, 04 December 2013, 15:05:35 »

I'd be interested in white.

keymaster · « **Reply #55 on:** Wed, 04 December 2013, 15:08:12 »

Interested.

By the way, is there a reason why the entire switch housing isn't sold? (instead of just top cover)

SpAmRaY · « **Reply #56 on:** Wed, 04 December 2013, 15:09:20 »

Seems like there are quite a few from R1 who have not received their tops yet

That has a lot more components, including metal parts that are fixed. Are you asking them to make those parts too? Also, they still need to correct the inner dimensions of the existing tops--designing and executing the bottoms would need to have even lower tolerances for error.

interested 4 transparent definitely plus any other color.

joneslee85 · « **Reply #59 on:** Thu, 05 December 2013, 08:28:39 »

im interested too

Would love some transparent orange

JayKthnx · « **Reply #61 on:** Sun, 08 December 2013, 19:48:59 »

is there any word on led switch covers yet? I would be willing to pick up at least 300 if you decide to make those.

mousesony · « **Reply #62 on:** Fri, 13 December 2013, 13:56:41 »

Very interested in clear transparent.

Stevenator21 · « **Reply #63 on:** Sun, 15 December 2013, 18:14:08 »

So no space for LEDs? Bummer.
I think a cool color would be a transparent graphite.

These allow for an LED like normal cherry tops, however what was discussed before was the possibility of having a different mold made to allow for switch top removal while leaving LED's intact.

What? I thought the only issue what that the tops couldn't be removed with leds in, which is an issue with all mx tops that aren't modified.

Unless I am wrong and these don't support leds for some reason and I missed that.

Pacifist · « **Reply #66 on:** Mon, 16 December 2013, 16:05:45 »

Just do the socket mod and you can keep the stock case

You posted that while I was typing mine and I didn't go back and check

Notice the time stamp.

I think he means the not-at-all-easy-or-clean mod where you cut out that chunk of plastic that holds the LED into the top part of a cherry switch "case". So that allows you to keep the stock "case" (switch enclosure) that you started with.

But that is so tedious and I can't imagine it would be very clean or consistent, and is hardly comparable to buying a custom top.

Over 9000 +

the ones I have now have orange stickers under them.

JayKthnx · « **Reply #71 on:** Sat, 28 December 2013, 12:21:08 »

Would love to purchase around 300 clear covers now. Also adding interest for purple covers.

avtar · « **Reply #72 on:** Fri, 03 January 2014, 15:13:19 »

I would be interested in clear ones.

drumflavah · « **Reply #73 on:** Sat, 04 January 2014, 06:18:42 »

SpAmRaY · « **Reply #74 on:** Sat, 04 January 2014, 09:50:30 »

Sounds like R1 Canadian orders were never shipped.

JayKthnx · « **Reply #75 on:** Sat, 04 January 2014, 18:12:03 »

I saw that as well. Hopefully, that doesn't mean we won't have a second round.

avtar · « **Reply #76 on:** Sat, 04 January 2014, 20:46:19 »

Well that's definitely troubling if the first round wasn't sucessfully completed :/

That doesn't appear to be the fault of the GB organizer but the US distributor from what I've seen.

True but the organizer isn't doing anything to help in the process.

Hopefully a second round can go smoothly, a lot of people definitely seem to be interested.

tbc · « **Reply #80 on:** Sun, 05 January 2014, 06:45:33 »

what does the switch look like with the 'removable-without-removing-LED' feature?

The part around the led would simply not be there.

What exactly can they do? They don't have extras (or enough extras) and I doubt their talking to the proxy will be any more effective than the people who haven't gotten theirs yet.

daerid · « **Reply #83 on:** Sun, 05 January 2014, 13:28:39 »

I'm in for a couple of straight clear sets (non-colored).

Aluminum top plate, white PCB, clear switch tops and clear key caps on my ErgoDoxen... yummmmmmm

The GB organizer is still responsible when people have paid and there items are not shipped.

So your saying if you run a GB a group buy and have someone help with shipping and they don't shop or just don't respond the people who have purchased are SOL?

nubbinator · « **Reply #85 on:** Sun, 05 January 2014, 14:02:29 »

I'm saying that they can't force the proxy to ship it. I don't know that anyone has contacted the group buy organizer yet to see if they can find some kind of solution, so I can only comment that they don't have any extras based on what they've said in the past and that they can't get the proxy to ship any more than the people who participated and are waiting on shipment.

I would still love red cover tops and clear. If they come out eventually I would also love some green.
