Zeal,
I'm getting an endless loop of my order being processed. Any ideas?

<edit> nvm. Did it on phone. I think there's something with the work firewall. Hopefully i didn't just place 20 orders...

I don't see any redundant orders, so it should have gone through properly. Check your email confirmation?

Yep, everything is cool. Something about that computer/connection didn't like the redirect at the end of the process. Thanks!

Hey Henry, just a heads up that I noticed your stock check doesn't work when you update quantities within the shopping cart, only when you try to add from the item page. Guessing that's a known issue, but thought I'd throw it out there!

Not sure if I follow. Adding anything to your cart doesn't guarantee or reserve the item for the user. Inventory levels are only deducted upon successfully checking out.

If you're referring to maxing out the order count at cart, trying to checkout will bring up this page.

Ah got it, I just had them in my cart and wanted to check how many you actually had available and noticed it let me put in any number, I see the check is made once you check out.

Aristotles live, shipment received.

Got 120! I may be using Zealiostles on my VE.A depending on how clicky they are!

Quick question, how long do you think they will stay in stock? If there are any left next month I plan on ordering more just to keep them for future builds (clicky switches are my jam) but I don't figure you'll have any left.

I didn't see these until just now! God I need to pay more attention... I'm going to need to buy a load of these to go with my clear stab housing.

And Zealios as well. Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck

Where does one go about lubing aristotles?

Very light oil on the guiding rails or none...Any bit of lube that gets into the click slider will kill the click.

Do you recommend any on the spring or should I just leave it completely unlubed if I am not going to worry about the sliders?

OK. I probably won't, especially if they one you sent me all those months ago was an un-lubed Zealiostotle. Thanks for the answer in the other thread as well dude, Ima go ahead and order a load of stuff :D

You can lube the spring without affecting the click slider.

Yeah, that Zealiostotle was completely unlubed. Just put the stem into a Zealio housing with iirc 67g.

Would You recommend 67 or 78 springs with them

Spring weight comes down to personal preference...You would really have to go test them yourself and find the perfect balance for your fingers. I personally like the 65/67g weights, but someone else may prefer something heavier or lighter.

Post by: romevi on Thu, 08 September 2016, 22:33:08
Some have reported that they feel heavier than other switches, like the Zealios, with the same springs. Do you find that true from your own experience?

In for some. I added this to my note on the order but just wanted to follow up here too. I'm not dying to get the aristotles right away since im gonna use them on a board I wont have for a few more months.  Is it possible to add my order to my R4 Zealios order?

Thats interesting. Yeah 5017 and 4593. If you already took care of packaging and shipping, its fine tho. Don't want to be a hassle

EDIT: I received the refund for shipping on the order. Thank you so much! I really appreciate it
