[IC] TacWorks TAC-K1 Mechanical Keyboard Kit

[BerserKeys]

Hey there!

We are excited to partner with TacWorks to bring this stunning custom mechanical keyboard to life!

KEY FEATURES:
Colourful Themes
Introducing the new TAC-K1 with a splash of colour and some awesome new features. There are 8 fantastic colour schemes for you, ranging from fun and cute themes to sleek and simple solid colours. Pick the one that vibes with your style the best!

Endless Fun
The TAC-K1 is packed with loads of cool features to keep you entertained and make your life easier. Imagine fun audio speakers, handy interchangeable USB-C port, a customizable nameplate area, and a super soft and bouncy pressure bar gasket mount. We have put our hearts into this, and we hope you feel it every time you use it.

Audio Speaker
The built-in speakers come with a variety of sounds that play with your keystrokes. Choose between wired and triple mode versions for your perfect audio experience.

Decorative Nameplates
Customize your look! The small square nameplates on the rear side can be moved around, and the large backplates work across different themes. You can mix and match with a 3+1 nameplate combo or go all out with four small squares.

Adjustable Horizontal Bar
The horizontally adjustable decorative bars let you decide where to place your USB-C port and nameplates. Flexibility at its finest!

Pressure Bar Gasket
an FR4 material is opted instead of the traditional aluminum alloy for the pressure bar gasket. It is more resilient and gives you a fantastic pressure feel and sound performance.



Sound-Dampening Foams
Depending on your PCB version, the TAC-K1 offers different sound schemes. Our layered sound-dampening foam pack includes battery compartment foam, silicone base pad, IXPE bottom foam, PORON switch socket foam, PET sound pad, and more. While there are slight differences between wired-mode and triple-mode versions, the main materials remain consistent, delivering excellent sound and feel.

Plate
The plate has been upgraded to high-quality FR4 material with a sleek black core and purple edges. This offers not just durability but also a stylish look. Plus, you can choose between matte PC and aluminum alloy plates for a softer or sturdier typing experience.





PCB
The K1 comes with two PCB options: a wired-mode VIA version for key remapping and variable layouts, and a triple-mode version that supports RGB backlight and is great for office use. Whether you prefer wired or wireless setups, we have got you covered. Both versions support the fun audio features, so you do not have to compromise on the things you like.

Surface Treatment
All eight colour options of the TAC-K1 are coated with a high-performance composite ceramic finish, ensuring they look and feel amazing.

We cannot wait for you to try out the new TAC-K1 and experience all the fun and functionality we have packed into it. Enjoy!
