Equalz Zer0.9EE TKL keyboard(GB complete)
« on: Mon, 01 July 2019, 12:22:20 »
Hello,Geekhackers

It's been too long since our first custom keyboard kit Zero.Now we bring you something from the Zero series. We call it Zero 0.9,in short term Zer0.9

New features of this kit:

1, Iron plate. We been trying to find out the best type feeling keyboard for a long time. Tried nicked iron plate when we did Zero,but it oxidated very quickly. And now we have been using electrophoresis. It gives a whole new type feeling. We feel like this is good choice for a tactile switch.

2, LDN series PCB,16.77M color RGB,fully programmable,with Type-C port.

3, High-light chamfering around the case.

4,Top mount,with O-ring under to reduce noise. And a silica gel plate between PCB and plate(it could reduce some of the noise)

5,Custom made Aluminium.  After months of experiment, this aluminium can reduce the color difference between the top and bottom case.

Pictures:













Typing test video:

Color options: Black case+Black plate+Red nameplate(the small plate cover the usb port and under the weight)
                     Coffee case+Black plate+Black nameplate
                     Yellow electrophoresis case(No High-light chamfer)+White plate+red nameplate
                     Grey case+Black plate+Black nameplate
                     Purple case+White plate+Pink nameplate
                     Dark Green case+Black plate+Black nameplate
                     All the colors above is fixed and can not be changed
                     The brass weight is sandblasted PVD. Have 2 colors Gold and Silver

GB time: 3 days after i post the form link

Lead time: 4 months

Price:$450+shipping+pp fee(5%)   shipping fee will be charged before shipping out,we will have to figure out what's the weight when the package is finished.

Form link:  https://forms.gle/9KW7fsnAs77PFZyj9
                Anything regarding payment,please PM me.
                Anyone want more than 1 please fill more forms.


Thanks everyone for reading this.

Coffee color will be like Zero. But if you know about anode. It can not be 100% same with different batch. You can see it like this:

Yea I think that's a deal breaker for me. Great looking board but I don't wanna have to source another PCB and test fitment and such since I won't use theirs. Oh well

I was quite busy so i closed the form a little bit late than i want. I am not selling extra plate and PCBs. There's no need for that,we will make sure our PCB are all good. And we always share our plate file for buyers to make whatever material they want

Updates for this project:

Unfortunately,we are facing delay for Zer0.9EE. The anode shop is too slow and we need another step(polish chamfer) before this finished.

I can't tell how long the delay will be right now,but i will working with both anode shop and CNC place to make it happen as soon as possible.

Will keep updating this both on Geekhack and Discord.

Update for Zer0.9EE/Polycarbonate
I am sad to tell everyone this bad news, my CNC factory have escape with my money and they haven’t deliver anything.They are not answer our calls,email,instant message and we have go to their place and find out it’s all empty. So today we can be sure that my CNC guy have run off. I am really sorry about this and we couldn’t let you guys be response for all of this,so here is how we want to deal with this situation.
1, We are making the case with another CNC shop with same quality. We will re-new the leadtime. That means another 3 month for now and we will deliver this keyboard. All other stuff(PCBs,packing,etc)is already in our warehouse now and this project is too good to be wasted so we still want to make it happen. For compensation,we will give everyone a set of stabs(random color) and our newly made tangerines switches(90PCS).
2, We understand some people are not willing to take the risk again. We will give full refund to you and a set of stabs(random color, free shipping)for compensation.
Refund please email to erduo.ear@gmail.com with a form like this:
Invoice number:
GH ID:
We will give refund next Friday.
3, This thing affect both Zer0.9EE(alu) and Zer0.9 polycarbonate.
4, Since we are re-making all of this, we will take new orders if anyone still trusting us.I doubt there is but we will rebuilt the trust.
In the end, i just want to say that we value our brand so much and we will take all the responsibility for this kind of thing. We are prepared to refund everyone.
Sorry again for this,I promise we will learn from this and be more responsible in the future.

I'm super sorry to hear this, what an enormous stress for you - sounds like you are handling it with your customers the right way though.

May I ask, for other would-be GB runners, how would you do things differently next time in terms of choosing, researching and interacting with a CNC shop?

Thank you! We will have proper contract and I am using a factory that much near me. The old one who run off is like 1000 km away. I will personal see the whole production myself and take photos to keep updating.

It's not like i dont want to do this before. Just they always telling they will take photos later and never send them.

This actually is very strange thing to us. They are doing good and suddenly they are gone. I guess the owner must lose a lot of money by gambling or do drugs

Hi guys, Now we are doing re-new orders and filling the open spots.
1, If you want to re-new buyer protection, please email to erduo.ear@gmail with you invoice number(4 digital number). I will send new invoice and refund your old ones.

2, Here's link for new orders.   https://forms.gle/g78ZRPHuiP4FHQts5
For Zer0.9EE we will only take maxium 15 oders(to match refunded orders). I wont take anymore than that becasue we have put down this many orders to our new factory.
FYI: We will change the dark green color for Zer0.9EE. New colors will be like the new iphone pro midnight green.If anyone is not confortable with this new color you can still send an email to me to refund or change colors.

3, any problems please pm me here or find me on discord.

Thank you everyone for all your support.

I got my board as well and the quality is out of this world, well worth the wait  :thumb:

BTW, the new LDN PCB's and the accompanying software is pretty damn sweet. There is a learning curve for sure and I'll say it's got the best back lighting and under glow features of any firmware I have ever used. So if you are hesitant to pick up one in a future GB because it's not QMK as long as you take some solid time to learn the software to configure it, it's really really good and you can tell they put a lot of work into the software.

Anyhow here is my build:
