Hi... I have a Chessnut Air... is there any chance of getting Chess.com to have an option for users where you can switch to clocks only when playing?

Very much enjoy using the Chessnut Air - very nice.

Hello chessnut friends,

I'm having problems playing against a bot on lichess. I get an error and then it just doesn't work. Could some you try so we can see if the problem is on my end?

The bot's name is

Boris-Trapsky

Don't know if this helps, but playing against Boris-Trapsky bot with the Pegasus and Chessconnect I got no problem. Ciao wink

How did you keep track of the time?

@keithearls - Just used my Air for two games this past week, using the Chessconnect extension (thread found in this sub forum, developed by Chess[]com member @joernupbde) and it performed flawlessly.

The only time I looked at the screen was to start the game and to either say good game or offer a draw. The entire time I only looked at the board. One game was 43 moves, the other was 53 moves.

Indianchessart is the same as Chessbazaar. Do they really have DGT and Chessnut pieces? If so where is the link?

I have purchased 2 sets of predrilled Chessnut pieces from them. Quite good. I currently have one of the sets on my Chessnut Evo board and they look very, very nice. Added sensors and they work very well.

Maybe go to the link provided and search for them.

Which sets did you get? Sounds cool!

Building an ecosystem sensor compatible sets is an excellent idea. We as buyers get a lot of options for our wooden chess sets

1) Why not ?

2) If it works, it works, if it doesn't, it doesn't wink

Happy Life !

Very interesting thread 
Just about to order a Chessnut Air from Amazon.com as that looks like the best option with prepaid duties and postage (I'm in the UK)

Id very much like set of sensor chips but postage from doubles the price.
Does the chess.com hive mind have any info on other sellers (UK, EU or WW) . I think $ P&P on a $ order is a bit steap
