Title: [IC] JetVan PCB (MiniVan case compatible)
Post by: evangs on Tue, 19 November 2019, 23:32:15
JetVan is a minivan case compatible pcb the supports a single layout. The pcb requires soldering the switches.
All smd components are pre soldered. The pcb has 10 rgb leds for underglow. The price will be ~$40 + shipping ($4 USA, $20 INT).
The production run will be black with white silkscreen.

The name JetVan comes from this layout originally being proposed by Jetpacktuxedo.

peacing out as a vendor. I still want to do projects and create stuff. I just don't want to manage a storefront etc.

Got it. Well this looks like a cool little continuation, and I have an extra minivan case sitting around, so I'm in.

Is the only layout difference between this and an MV44 the bottom row?

This also has underglow LEDs instead of indicators

I just gotta ask why you are offering a new PCB with a single layout when you had various iterations of the PCB already with things that people were asking before? Is it really that big of a difference in pricing?

Very much looking forward to this and using that extra minivan case you sent me for it.

bottom row, RGB underglow instead of indicators, not hotswap

Doesn't support split space =(
if you want split space use minivan pcb (more will be available in the future)

This pcb has different features than the minivan pcb. I don't like swiss cheese pcbs.

Thanks for the replies, all. I was specifically asking about LAYOUT differences so I could plan when scoping keycaps. ;D

Only difference is big spacebar.

I guess you could say it's a "big" difference

This PCB is compatible with any minivan case EXCEPT for R1 cases, called TheVan 44,  due to different mounting pattern.

potentially compatible cases (may have an issue with the stabilizer)
nickel plated
silver/black
white power coat
all painted cases

compatible cases include
Massdrop minivan
all plastic cases

I知 just wondering how you guys type numbers.

They're in a second layer, but which key maps to which number depends on the person's preference.  For me, I prefer them in the same place, i.e., across the top. So if I hold down FN and then hit Q, it's 1, W is 2, E is 3, etc. Some people lay them out like a numpad in the second layer, so FN and M is 1, comma, is 2, period is 3, J is 4, K is 5, etc up to O ("oh") being 9.

Not sure I want a 40% without a split space, but it is great to see you remaining active Evan!

I do the numpad approach

The IC form has been slowing receiving positive entries. My next question for the IC is December launch or hold off until the new year?
