Title: Varmilo VA87M & VB87M, Keycaps, PBT Spacebar - ARRIVED
Post by: HendyZone on Thu, 27 August 2015, 10:20:00
We will carrying Varmilo mechanical keyboard from now on and forever :p

It's very great and solid board
I already test some sample from them, including their colorful PBT keycap

If you know that Varmilo ever comes with costar stabilizer, from now on they didn't use costar stabilizer anymore
all comes with cherry stabilizer. The cherry stabilizer not mushy on this varmilo, like they modified the stab. Same technique use on Ducky One, Ducky Shine 5, NT108 as far as i know

On September we will have incoming Varmilo inventory
- VA87M
- VB87M (Cheaper Version)
- a lot of colorful varmilo keycap set
- PBT spacebar

Hello, actually some VA87M already arrived and half already sold out by local customers;
since we are still developing the options + variants system for ordering through the site, we haven't listed the VA87M yet

In varmilo as you know; there are a lot of option and variants as an add-on

OEM keyboard but super complex :))

What kind of VA87M do you want ?
Switch ?
LED ?
Keycap ?
Case ?

This would be a great board for me if it was compatible with Mac. But it does some weird thing where it acts like multiple keyboards when you plug it in (probably for high KRO support), and Mac just chokes on this. It also means you can't use hasu's USB to USB converter, so no programmability.

I even tried using a USB to PS/2 adapter, back into a PS/2 to USB adapter. Nothing.

Switch ?
Gaterons browns/blues, probably. Actually, the cheaper the better, as I will put Zealios on it.

LED ?
Red leds.

Keycap ?
Are those black on black deysub already avalible? If not, the regular black on grey dyesub top printed.
What options other options you have?

Case ?
Again, what options are avalible? Maybe grey if there is any, or just regular black.

Thanks.

Yeah varmilo is great board,
The early varmilo boards are not compatible with Mac
Do you know that Varmilo keyboard already compatible on Mac OS X now ?
Both of VA87M and VB87M are compatible on Mac

Since you want to replace the switch; my suggestion is buy the cheapest Varmilo version then
the cheapest option is like this
va87m
gateron switch
black case
dark gray keycap (side printed)
no LED

you can add the LED by yourself

in this case you must wait around early december; we have this cheap varmilo version shipment on november including the Black on Black Dye Sub Keycap set

So, does regular version PCB support DIY leds? Thats very good to know.

Guess I will wait then. Those black on black dyesub look very nice.

Yes, of course
But we are waiting for the new models;
Varmilo still developing the new models for the fullsize board (detachable cable) and maybe low profile case too ;D
