bugfight Posted December 12, 2007 Report Share Posted December 12, 2007 I removed the detents on some of these and they do seem way more solid after the operation than the alpha or alps equivalents Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sasha Posted December 12, 2007 Report Share Posted December 12, 2007 Jimp, did you took off the spring completely or you just flattened the "teeth"I`ve removed the detend spring completely and noticed the encoder is little bit bouncing compared to unmodified encoders. Maybe it would be more stable if the teeth is just flattened with the pliers, but than rotation is not so smooth. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bugfight Posted December 12, 2007 Report Share Posted December 12, 2007 Jimp, did you took off the spring completely or you just flattened the "teeth"...i bent the spring down out of the way, so theoretically it is reversible, though i plan to never try it.i haven't exhaustively compared them for electrical stability, but mechanically they are far better Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mc4 Posted December 14, 2007 Report Share Posted December 14, 2007 Just a little update for the second run: 700 pieces so far: 2007-11-29 aeiou42 1002007-11-29 Enth 1002007-11-29 wicked-E 1002007-11-28 mrmeana 100+2007-11-28 Jack 1002007-11-30 Dave 100 2007-12-14 Steve 100The MOQ (minimal order quantity) at soundwell is 2000 pieces, my MOQ is 100, because there isa lot of extra work involved. Wilba told me the encoders will come disassembled with washers andnuts in extra bags. Counting and packaging will take a while.Hope you understand. :)Frank Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Echopraxia Posted December 14, 2007 Report Share Posted December 14, 2007 Is there a wiki bulk order page for this second order?I would like 100 encoders please. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wilba Posted December 28, 2007 Author Report Share Posted December 28, 2007 I don't know about "hard-tested"... I connected them, tried all the speed modes etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ganchan Posted December 28, 2007 Report Share Posted December 28, 2007 some time this happned with cheap enc that i find in local store here, in rome, if you make it non detented, the pot rotate too fast and not with a little resistance. i like non detented enc always, just for menu enc i like it det.uhm.. but if this enc are cheap, due to the bulk order, and are good non-detented, my above 'declaration' is false.. :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wilba Posted December 29, 2007 Author Report Share Posted December 29, 2007 There is still good resistance after removing detents.... and I think more resistance (and nicer feeling) than removing detents from the ECC/Voti encoders. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KnowGood Posted December 29, 2007 Report Share Posted December 29, 2007 Mine arrived just before Christmas. Thanks Wilba! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bugfight Posted December 29, 2007 Report Share Posted December 29, 2007 There is still good resistance after removing detents.... and I think more resistance (and nicer feeling) than removing detents from the ECC/Voti encoders.i found they give a bit less resistance than the alps and alphas, but i like it better this way. there is enough resistance to hold them in a particular position, but they are easier to move. i had to replace 3 alphas in my mb-6582 already (some of the tabs broke off) too bad, though, that now i want to replace the other 12 so they match in feel. these things are a major PITA to remove, even after cutting the leads off...

NorthernLightX Posted December 31, 2007 Report Share Posted December 31, 2007 Does anyone want to sell me a couple, say 25? I didn't join the bulkorder because I will never use 100 of these and have stocked up enough on other stuff, but I need a couple, and voti is more expensive even though the shipping is local. If noone is willing to part with some I'll just order them from voti and no offense will be taken ;)cheers, Alex. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mc4 Posted January 6, 2008 Report Share Posted January 6, 2008 It's time now to confirm the inquiries made by you. :)If you like to order a set of 96 soundwell encoders, please send me your real name and shipping addressper personal mail.In order to survey the status, I have linked an image of an excel sheet which I try to keep updated.Because Jason told me, the encoders are packaged in trays, it is simpler to ship 96 instead of 100 pieces.Try Reload frame in your browser to see the newest update of this image.
