heathmAnyone from a previous drop swap Zealio Switches in that they could post some pictures of? Which Zealio switch did you use? Any issues? Please depict the Zealio switch with the LEDs shining through if possible.
aouesnthIf i was to do it again i would get one of those and change all the leds to either pure red or white. but i don't think they will be doing the RGB ones anytime soon
I don't know if any feedback or advise from me can do anything, but here goes: I suggest you add the option of including Zealios switches the next time this drops. I really like the concept of being able to switch out keyswitches to your liking, however, if you can only provide one brand of switch as an alternative to those rubbish preinstalled switches, it will appeal to a smaller group of people. I understand that the Gateron switches are modified so that the SMT LEDs are able to shine through clearly, but the last time I checked, Zealios switches were also compatible with these LEDs.

P.S: I don't want this to sound like criticism, I just want to express my ideas for how this drop could be much more successful. (Zealios are in high demand) I also don't want this to sound like I'm a beggar, but if I was, I would beg for 62g tactile Zealios. ;-)
di_duncanfor some reason zeal doesn't like going thru massdrop to sell his switches. the few times they are on here they are part of a prebuilt board done by a manufacturer who already had stock of the switches to use.
asperatusthat does make it a different product though none the less. last time they had the rgb version on amazon it was going for $100 you have to compare apples to apples not apples to oranges. rgb makes a huge difference especially when the available light colors are so mismatched and glaring on the base model so yes there is a justification. if it was just pure white or someth8ing then might have been overlookable.
Question to those how own this Team Wolf keyboard, will any MX Cherry keycaps fit on their GAOTE switches? And if not can you swap out the GAOTE switches for MX Cherry switches?
leongabancherry/gateron housing is very different from the gaote housing. yes you can swap the whole switch but you will have a slight problem in that the switch will stick out a little. to fix this you can take a dremil to the underside of the housing by the led area and make it just big enough to fit around the led. if you don't care for the led you can also just unsolder the leds
Seems the LED under the "SL" key is not lit :(. It won't come on even under all the fancy lighting modes and doesn't come on when you engage it either.
Actually I found out this a known bug in X for Ubuntu and a lot of Linuxen. The scroll lock LED functions properly in a virtual terminal when X/Gnome isn't running.
