【IC】1800-like PCB-Mounted Custom Keyboard

[shower_king]

I am a G80-1800 series addicted and PCB-mounted addicted.



Top



side



 

I gauge interest here since  I am not sure how many demand for this.

This prototype is inspired by G80-1800 series but with less top border



The original is above.

for update

First, I want to make less top border

like this



However, the ratio of slim border to bottom slop is a little werid and not so good.

I extend the slim top border a bit for wonderful ratio.

What colors will be offered?
I'm definitely in if MAO is available.

EVE and ALF will do MAO Microarc. If demand for this is high, I will add the color choice in.

Will it fit the old PCB?

Not fit, new ones

love the design, hopefully this will be after hbcp

I'm interested. Is it similar mounting to the JER-A06? What kind of PCB compatibility do we expect? How about programmability?

Plate material? Fixed layout plates?
Anodization options?

No problem. I have some details to discuss with render maker.

1, good question. Although both PCB-mounted, I have some details about suspending PCB inside to be confirmed. The JER's designer have given me some constructive suggestions for this.
2,Due to modified length-width ratio， I have contacted a designer to do new PCB. Currently, I have no exact details to share here.
3,No plate, this is for PCB-mounted just as G80-1800 series.
4,Microarc ? Colors?
5,about layout

Is it possible to have a full size numpad? I see that the layout allows for a 2u 0 but then the . is gone. It would be great to have something similar to a 1800 but with a full size numpad without getting a full size keyboard.

Thanks for the reply! Lol I'm so dumb to ask about plates when it's PCB mounted only -_-

I want to resurrect this thread.
I was in the JER-A06 GB and the turnaround was swift and the smoothest buy I have ever been a part of.

As I am also in love with PCB mount and 1800, I want this to become a reality!
Not only is this a great design, but this also has a great guy behind it. I don't know why so few are flocking to this IC.

I’m here to support it, yo.

Hope this one isn't on hold indefinitely would love to use this as a work board.

I am in!

I think I prefer the larger top bezel over the shorter one. Definitely interested.
