ENTERED. Really hoping to get in on this!

This may be a stupid question but this is compatible with the Zeal PCB right?

I haven't tested it, but I can try to acquire one to test.

Should work.

Thank you. I'm a long time non-registered lurker though :) (Also, I'm oknytt on DT.)

Will the silver case be so light in colour that it's almost white? I mean with the name and all, a snowclad "fjell" would be beautiful.

Unfortunately it is not white, just silver. I hope to get some sample pics next week.

I love the purple, but a white option would take the cake for me ;)

Unfortunately there is no way to do a white anodize.

Here is an explanation as to why

NP. The only really good way to get white would be to powder coat, which we usually don't see in this hobby.

Either that or cerakoting, eh? I know there's an example that henz has of the Novatouch aluminum case that's white. I personally would rather anodizing anyway, especially on something with as many sharp edges as the FJELL, since those are usually weak points for paints.

The Matrix team tried a new technique with their Abel buy to get something like white anodization (read more here), but my understanding is they actually had to scrap it and ask the people who chose ceramic white to choose another color because it got dirty af and gross looking.

Powder coat holds up on edges better than paint dies. But yea, anodizing will always be a better, longer lasting finish process.

I believe selections have been made and invoices should be going out in February sometime after Chinese New Year? But don't quote me on that......

If anyone gets cold feet when they see the invoice... consider me a foot warmer!
