J80's debut on GH https://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=90589
J80 (JER-A06) Round 1 GB https://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=96264

[attach=2][attach=3][attach=4][attach=5][attach=6][attach=7]
JER PLANT - J80 (JER-A06) Round 2 "Electrophoresis White"
The J80 is a OG Cherry style(no plate) custom 80% kit.
It is characterized by the fact that the hoisting PCB has no steel plate and can fully reflect the elasticity of the linear shaft. Tested by the buyer, its feel and typing sound are different from other custom keyboards and are satisfactory. It has a simple and elegant original cherry-like shape, the author's original intention is to start from the touching feel, let everyone have a comfortable tapping experience. The light stick module in the upper right corner is detachable, it could be switches (3 keys) or the light stick module. When using light stick module, PrtScr Scrolllock and Pause are achieved by pressing FN+ Insert / Home / Page Up.
However, due to the tight schedule and the number of orders in China at that time, in order to ensure the quality, 40 sets were limited. On the same day, the group was cut off. Later, due to the author's personal PAYPAL problem, a small part of the order was cut, and I would like to say sorry to all the people who has any trouble with J80 R1 group buy.
At the end of this month, we will bring you a new surface treatment process of J80 - electrophoresis white and anodized J80.
Electrophoresis is characterized by a delicate surface and durability, and this time the electrophoresis white is the same as the white craft used in the previous JER MINI, but there is still a little difference. In order to make it look more retro, the factory opened a brand new processing pool - it will be a slightly yellowish milky white color, compared to the micro-arc gray of j80 R1, both the texture and the color itself have a great upgrade, check the following pictures for a compariation of the micro-arc gray in R1 and the new electro white in R2.
For Round 2 there're 3 colors to choose from: electrophoresis white, black (anodized), dark gray (anodized). Due to cost, electrophoresis white will be slightly more expensive. This group will no longer provide J PAD or provide J80 NCR color matching, because the author is trying to do some new process J80 NCR color matching which takes some time.

Looks really good, however this should really be $100 cheaper considering its simple construction/materials. The Rama u80a is the exact same price. :eek:
I think it's easy to assume that it should be $100 cheaper when you compare "features" from other boards but I'm not sure where you came up with $100. The slope to match the vintage style costs more than just a straight line when compared to the Rama U80A. Also, it's hard to compare costs if quantities are vastly different. I think it could be cheaper but I think $420 is a solid price when you consider everything else in addition to construction/materials.

Can you show the difference between 1R white and 2R white?
Is there a lot of color difference?
R1 white is MAO, it can be easily scratched. R2 white is more resistant to scratch, and it is whiter, and a lot better than R1 white.

Winkey on both sides can't be done on a 65%, left arrow is in the way. UNLESS you swap to 6u spacebar and change it entirely.

You are correct sir. I have absolutely no idea why I failed here, must have looked at another keyboard and then saw the question :S Brainfart.

Looks really good, however this should really be $100 cheaper considering its simple construction/materials. The Rama u80a is the exact same price. :eek:The G60 (similar sloped sides also inspired by the G80-3000, only in a 60% form factor) was $300 base, but some colors raised it $36. This uses significantly more material and has an F-row and nav cluster, but no plate or Bluetooth connectivity so $420 really isn't absurd for the volume, but I would like a better PCB.

I watched some vods and talked to the amazing people in the QMK Discord and now I'm running QMK on my PCB. Need to do some clean up of the code, but will do a PR to the main repo when the code is ready.

First, when is it coming back?
Second, how does in compare, in practice, to the new NCR80 board that also mimics the old Cherry G80-3000? Obviously, the NCR80 is built way cheaper, but how might the typing experience be different?
