As with many of the other coil cables I have ordered on drop, the cable seems to be of a good quality and nicely made. It color matches great with Skii Data but also with the drop 3277 set with tangerine accents.
I have a number of these cables, and they always scream quality to me. This particular one is no exception, and the colors go well with the keycap set.
As always, the only drawback is the price. But, if you have the disposable income to blow on it, it's a nice visual upgrade for your setup.
Edit:
Somebody at Mechcables saw my comment. I was contacted by Joe from Mechcables about the issue. The customer service with Mechcables (Joe) was outstanding. He was very helpful and friendly!
The cable works well and looks nice! I am now comfortable to say that I would recommend this product.
Old review:
The cable is fragile and not worth the money at all. Out of the box, the connection was iffy. When the cable is at certain angles, my keyboard would power off and 2 weeks in, it just keeps disconnecting whenever i move my keyboard. I contacted Drop's customer support and there was nothing they could do. They keep your money and tell you to fix it yourself. So i can definitely not recommend this product to anybody. There should have been quality control somewhere along the way. It's not worth 70 cad at all.
etchiiHi etchii! The cable should not be exhibiting those symptoms. Please reach out to us directly with your order info and we will get a replacement sent out asap. (contact@mechcables.com)
Just the look I was going for. Love the color way.
Cable is just what I was looking for. Great look as well as functionality. Colors portrayed are just like the actual product. Not sure what others were expecting from a cable when they mention “looks inexpensive”. The reaction from me and others is the complete opposite.
chrisperezhey I have the same keycaps on a different black case, I've been wondering if this cable would complement them but was never sure of the color tone differences. I can't get a good idea from stock photos. How would you say grey of the caps vs the cable and the orange of the caps vs the connector look? Not sure if you posted anywhere but I'd love to see a close up photo if possible. Thanks
Purchased this cable to pair with a new CTRL V2 build in the same color scheme and it arrived quickly and as advertised. Great build quality, color matched perfectly. Would be a 5 star review for me, however...
Unfortunately it seems either I got a bad cable or this cable was too long as it appears it won't supply sufficient power for either of my CTRL builds (I have a v1 as well and both boards are power hungry) and since I don't have a non-CTRL board to test, I can't confirm in either direction as to the problem.
It would have been nice to have been aware of this potential problem before I ordered, but don't let that stop you from buying one of these for your non-power hungry boards.
