Title: Leeku's MX1800/3000 PCBs available anywhere?
Post by: ojrask on Sat, 29 July 2017, 18:33:30
I just bought an old G81-3000. Initially, I just thought to harvest the caps and make it a project board. Now I heard about some Leeku's MX 3000 PCB which could convert the board to be compatible with regular MX (PCB-mount?) switches.

Any idea where, how, and for what money one could acquire those PCBs? Google turns up "help me pls" threads and dead domains.

I just messaged kin on telegram and he got back to me pretty quick and shipped me two leeku1800 v2's quickly after I paid.

You can find his telegram in his signature I believe. He's the one running the tx 1800 r3 buy right now

Thanks, I'll inquire about purchasing one after I receive the board and check it out.

SMD soldering is something I need to learn anyway in case no presoldering is available, but will have to invest in a new soldering iron for that (a $30 shaky stick is not probably going to cut it :D).

Thanks!
