Happy 4th all! What a present we received for America’s bday 
Final 3D print version (notes below)
Some pictures of them testing the light leakage, which is virtually zero (3D print - see notes below)
This is the control sample we were told to test against - Control 4 version which is a $250-300 switch
A couple of videos:
Notes:
This is straight from the engineer regarding the 3D models.
Since all the plastic parts are 3D printed, the structural dimension accuracy is not enough, the surface is not smooth, and the elasticity of the lever is insufficient, resulting in some corner buttons not bouncing back in time. At present, this effect can only be achieved, and the good thing is that the gap between the buttons is reduced.
Basically saying that these are 3D prints so don’t expect it to be perfect.
Regarding the light leakage.
Eric Hines Please see the video and pictures.
- There is a phenomenon of color mixing between the backlight and the led bar, and the light of the backlight shines on the led bar, which is more obvious when the led bar is off or the brightness is low.
2.The button gap has a small part of light leakage. Reducing the brightness of the backlight can reduce these phenomena. It may also be possible to add a small number of baffles around the led bar to avoid mixing colors. We plan to send 2 inovelli samples and 2 B2B samples tomorrow, but the firmware is not perfect, there are basic dimming and OTA functions, and some backlights and led bar can be turn on by pushing buttons. You can also test button feel and light leakage. I hope you can confirm the tooling through these.

I’m excited to get these and move onto testing!
