Hmm, I have to still check my board but maybe I should go for 70 just for alpha cluster.

Hi,
I placed my order just minutes before the deadline (CET), but haven’t received an email yet. Did it work?
Thanks.

I don't know. The plan is to order them when the PCBs are ready.

7bit, can you post the current tally? Will colors below 1000 be dropped?

Still rather confused between PCB and Plate mounting switches.
Would this be plate-mounting?

If there are two little posts next to the middle big post on the bottom, that is a PCB-mounted switch. Plate-mounted switches don't have the 2 small little posts on the bottom.

I'm in for more then :) I haven't gotten any confirmation email from the first message I sent out to Phantom yesterday though :?:

No. They are a lot longer, almost as tall as the center post. And those thin long posts form a straight line with the center post. The picture you have is a plate-mounted switch.

I will take a picture of both a plate-mount switch and a PCB-mount switch tomorrow.

Never realized all this while lol.
Was wondering why I had such a hard time aligning my Poker keys :oops:

Thanks for the help, Litster

yes, that last picture is a PCB-mount switch. You might want to fix your Poker's switches :-)

I've found someone with a supply of grey switches, and there's no minimum order quantity (although there's a limited supply). The switches won't be anywhere near as inexpensive as those being offered in this group buy, but I'll collect details and open up a new interest check, or I may string it off of my current interest check for the latching switches.

--edit--
Okay, I know I've got the right part number on the grey switches, but I've gone ahead and ordered a single green and a single latching switch to confirm that they're in fact the correct parts and numbers. Worst case, I'm out 30 bucks, best case scenario though, we'll have a source for all of the switches that don't meet minimum order quantity in this group buy.

HERE you could get MX Grey... but only PCB mounted. (cutting of pins?)
