This keyboard is designed on the original Equalz Zero. Compared with Zer0.9EE, this is more like the original Zero.

What do you need know about this kit:
1,Case are CNC poly carbonate with sandblast
2,Plate are brass with mirror finished PVD
3,Nameplate and weight are sandblast PVD
4,PCB is our LDN series with 16.77M color RGB,fully-programmable,TYPE-C port,pre-soldered everything. Just need put stabs and solder the switches.
5,Extra Poly carbonate plate and PCBs are available this time.
Timeline:GB will start by the end of this month. Leadtime is 2-3 months

Would it be possible to have a different option/logo for the gold badge above the arrow cluster? I think it would look a lot cleaner if you integrated the “C3” or “ZERO” branding rather than using the current characters, especially to Western markets.Of course,we could give another badge saying Zero for sure. Thanks for the advice.

The only way it should be.

Thirded. The badge sitting a little more flush with the case and being a little less prominent would be nice too.

I have heard that polycarbonate is a hard material to work with which results in a very fragile keyboard, possible alignment issues, etc. (see Polaris GB). Have you encountered any of these issues during your prototyping? Do you have concerns regarding this?It's a very hard material to work indeed. It easily bend after CNC. We have working on it since last November. Tried a lot of different Poly carbonate and a lot different ways to CNC them. The Top case and bottom is not aligned like aluminium case,etc. Fortunately,we have solve most of the problems.The only thing that not perfect is the alignment between top and bottom case.That being said,you could hardly see the problem,only if you touch it very carefully you can feel a little bit of it.And a lot of aluminium cases have this problem as well.This is nearly impossible to solve for a TKL. Rest assure we won't run something that have a lot problems we can't solve. It's too bad for our Brand. We value our brand more than profits.

Thank you for the thorough response. It’s unfortunate PC is so troublesome to work with (at no fault of your own, it’s just the nature of the material). I will definitely be in for a board though, your efforts are much appreciated!

I'm unsure if I could pay the invoice in time depending on when the GB starts and ends. (Aug 19th is the earliest I could pay)My experience tells me the shipping cost would from 25-40 depend on where you are. We ship it from China and US/Korea have the cheapest shipping Fee. You can discuss payment time when GB is live with me. PM me when GB started,Thank you

Good article. Poly carbonate do have its own limit. Especially shape change after CNC. It's a Hugh pain in the ass. Luckily we have found the right materiel provider and right way to machine them.
Look the bright side. The look of it is just so good that we can refuse it. ;D ;D ;D

I was just wondering if there are any universal pcbs like h87a that fit certain tkl keyboards.
em... H87a is probably the most "universal" TKL pcb there is right now. H87a page (https://hineybush.com/collections/pcbs/products/h87a?variant=16030978867264) links to a compatibility chart and mentions boards that aren't compatible (it won't work with commercial TKL boards).
That said - I have no idea if H87a PCB will work (more like fit) with C3 boards. It probably doesn't really matter as LDN series PCB has USB-C, RGB lighting and is fully programmable. Even googled a bit (c'mon guys, do a bit of research before asking questions) and it looks like LDN TKL pcbs support all the usual layouts (https://geekhack.org/index.php?action=dlattach;topic=95713.0;attach=195945;image) (WK/WKL/ISO/split backspace).

Is the plate design a prototype or final? It looked like it could only accept stepped caps lock.
The only way it should be.

I think they're both insanely pleasing to look at.

This is so great to hear, honestly. Both badges look so good I'd feel slightly disappointed if I couldn't use both of them.

like that much better.
If the weight and badges are both sandblasted, is it possible to do a sandblasted plate as well? I'd prefer sandblasted brass over pvd so they match.
I suppose I could take it to my cerakote place and have them sandblasted it.

All the brass part will be PVD. Just different finish. It's nearly impossible to cover the tool mark for the letters,there goes sandblast. We tried mirror finish and not turned out perfect.And as for your questions, we wont do a sandblasted plate because with PC case and RGB pcb, mirror brass plate will be more beautiful. And offer another plate is just too much.

in the pricing it says shipping+pp. is the pp paypal transaction fee or something else?yes, paypal charge a fee for every transaction. Which is 4.4%. I just need to get 320 USD for every kit.

totally understandable. the fee would be 14 bucks out of every order. adds up.
only noticed this group buy yesterday and i think i may join it. think gmk kaiju will look great on it if that ever ends up running.

Yes, the fee will be (320+shipping)x4.4%. I think most GBs are like this.
Also, Polycarbonate fits a lot keycaps. You'll love it.

I saw the compatibility spreadsheet where it says Equalz ZERO is theoretically compatible.. any updates on that?Are there any universal pcb that would fit this left corner usb pcb?What do you mean? I am totally lost here...
I was just wondering if there are any universal pcbs like h87a that fit certain tkl keyboards.
em... H87a is probably the most "universal" TKL pcb there is right now. H87a page (https://hineybush.com/collections/pcbs/products/h87a?variant=16030978867264) links to a compatibility chart and mentions boards that aren't compatible (it won't work with commercial TKL boards).
That said - I have no idea if H87a PCB will work (more like fit) with C3 boards. It probably doesn't really matter as LDN series PCB has USB-C, RGB lighting and is fully programmable. Even googled a bit (c'mon guys, do a bit of research before asking questions) and it looks like LDN TKL pcbs support all the usual layouts (https://geekhack.org/index.php?action=dlattach;topic=95713.0;attach=195945;image) (WK/WKL/ISO/split backspace).

Dude... Like if there's no updates in the spreadsheet than how could anyone except C3Ears update you on a board that's still in GB? Buy the board, find out for yourself and let Hiney know if it's compatible or not.
