I am still wondering how you would describe the difference between MX GREEN and the new MX WHITE...
Could you give it a try?

Just order whites (aka albino greens) as many as you like.
Also, they will be a cheap as other switches if there are enough orders.

So how are the MXWHITE different from MXGREEN? And what happened to MXDARKGREY?
Posted: 24 Feb 2012, 19:15
by 7bit
MXDARKGREY are 140 switches which come from PrinsValium and are sold out.
MXWHITE is like blue but instead of cracking egg-shelles it is like cracking mushrooms, says sixty.

Errr...cracking mushrooms? What is the Cherry part number?

Just ordering the following from Phantom:
MXCLEAR 16
MXRED 16
MXGREY 3
Initially ordered 110 MXCLEAR switches from Phantom for a keyboard mod, but I got impatient. Decided I'd buy a Cherry G80-3000LQCDE-2 instead and harvest all the electronics in addition to the clear switches.
Gonna attempt this over Easter depending on when I get the switches-

Order more!!!!
Especially MXWHITE has got a bit too few orders. The price could get down a bit.

Are MXWHITE still being produced? Or is it just new old stock from somewhere?

Sorry, but I had to reduce my order.

Thanks!
BTW, I am getting switches for the same purpose as Salisen - to mod both my N52 and N52TE

They are produced again, or are an entirely new switch.
edit: This is still open until I order from the supplier...

Hey 7bit, got the mail I sent you about two weeks ago?
I've just got a response that the mail was rejected.

Firstly-

Awesome, good luck!

With the n52te I'm gonna hopefully drill through each part of the copper connections underneath each key to make pseudo pads with a pillar drill, to reduce the need for hotglue. Just gonna have to be check the circuitry carefully to avoid shorting something on the back...
Secondly- I've paid by Paypal, but haven't had anything through for confirmation- I included PH 0134 Salisen in the payment email that was sent automatically by paypal. Has it gone through correctly?

Your invoice math intrigues me!
Total | | | | 78| 53.60
Payments | | | | |-54.10
Amount Due | | | | | -0.49
EDIT:
Hmm so payments is rounded figure? And it ends up missing 0.01?

Just send a message to Phantom. In around 1h you will know what you ordered.
Be quick to order the MXWHITE and MXLOCK and MXDARKGREY switches, becuase I will order only as many as are in the list by next Friday.

Maybe Perl is not so good for calculations ...
I will re-write it in some computer-algebra system.
Any suggestions?

Lol wtf. Shouldn't be rounded, because all prices are precise to the cent? 7bit: don't use floats internally but integer "cents"?

EURO payments go with what conversion ratio? Only source other than floats I can think of...

Good point. And we don't know what black magic 7bit uses in his calculations.

I'm quite sure where it comes from. Perl is not the perfect language for the job.
I will fix it when I'm home ...
