Zoompad Nov 23 batch will be imported from China into Canada via Ocean Freight only
Arrives to Canada via a ship. Takes 45-60 days in transit. This is the standard import method used in most keyboard / deskmat group buys. It's much cheaper than Air Express but takes much longer to arrive.
All units ordered via Ocean Freight are scheduled to ship out of Meletrix around March, 2023 and should arrive at Mech.land around Q2, 2024
Air Express is not being offered in this batch
You cannot combine Ocean Freight and Air Express items in the same order. Each individual order has to contain either all Ocean Freight or all Air Express items. This is because they arrive at different times
Please keep in mind the ETA is just our best guess according to the information currently available to us. Unexpected issues and delays can happen at every stage of the process.
In this round we're only offering 7 out of the 20+ colorways offered in the last round. All add-ons and accessories are available as well. It's an unlimited pre-order so nothing will sell out before the end date.

Special Edition Zoompads (with the exception of GT Silver) will have an accent chamfer on the inside edges. Chamfers are polished too like in Zoom75.
These new default knobs function just like any other Zoom series knobs, but they have a frosted window to let the LED in the encoder shine through the knob!
The Tri-Mode PCB support per-key RGB lighting. You can choose from provides a wide range of colors and effects for a different visual experience. The wired only PCB doesn't support this feature.
Zoompads are the perfect companion to Zoom75! Zoompads come in the exact same colors as Zoom75. When placed side by side, they have the same typing angle and front to back length. Leave a screen on your Zoom75 and use the knob on your Zoompad, or have a setup with dual knobs - your choice!
Both wired and Tri-Mode Zoompad PCBs feature Kailh Hot Swap sockets that allow you to just push the switches on, no soldering required! Changing switches is a breeze, you can go from linear to tactile in a matter of minutes, all on the same keyboard!
A slight revision of the new stabilizers were under development for almost one year, and will be included with every edition of the Zoompad.
Zoompad uses a gasket isolation mount structure for a soft, bouncy and pleasant typefeel that won't fatigue your fingers even after hours of typing. Gasket mount keyboards sound better and feel more even throughout the board than the typical off-the-rack tray mount keyboards.
The gasket sleeves are made of supercritical foam, it can stabilize the plate as the same time giving appropriate space allowing it to flex in a balanced way. Just the right softness, not too stiff, not too much flex.
In order to reduce resonance, many tests were done on the foaming material of the Zoompad. Meletrix made the new PORON lighter and denser, as a result they make the keyboard sound more concentrated and deeper than stock settings.
