Title: [GB] RGBKB Sol 2 (Ends Aug 3rd)
Post by: Legonut on Sun, 14 July 2019, 20:37:42

Hi, I'd like to introduce you to the Sol 2 keyboard from RGBKB.net (http://RGBKB.net)

Sol is a split, ortholinear keyboard with ergonomic thumb and modifier areas. It comes standard with pre-soldered MCU, type-C ports, and all necessary components. The base kit ($82) includes 128 pre-soldered LEDs, including super-bright SK6812 LEDs per switch and perimeter lighting. Options include gasket-mount, 4.8mm aluminum plates and a full-hand frame.

Parts will be ordered from China immediately after Aug 3rd, with an expected ship date of late November. Soldered build will require 2 additional weeks.

Hi all, there are 10 days left for the group buy!
Two quick notes: I've removed the brass gasket mount plate due to lack of interest.
I will be purchasing extra units for pre-orders and stock sales, they will be slightly more expensive.
