Feedback on the case #13

First of all, thank you so much for this great keyboard! I love it!

I messed up flashing the firmware (put a ZMK firmware on the wired version) and needed to access the board's B button. I had to disassemble the both splits to press the B button and fix my mistake, which was quite annoying :D. So my idea is to make the B button accessible somehow, either through a hole or a separate switch like the reset button.

Just an idea. Maybe I am the only one with that issue. Feel free to close the issue.

You can double click the reset button for the same effect.

That didn't work anymore in my case.

I needed to hold the B button while plugging in the board. After releasing the B button the board was mounted as a usb device.

I found this solution on seeed studios's discord.

Interesting, are you sure the reset button is connected correctly? You can always drill a hole using a manual drilll 0.5 mm or smth

Yes the reset button is correctly connected. Somehow putting on the wrong firmware leads to a state where you can't recover via the reset button but instead you need to go the B button way described above.
