Yes, it’s still happening!

We showed a working sample of it at Computex last month. We developed new low-profile ALPS switches for it, which is why it took so long. Low profile switches with full travel were an extremely difficult technical challenge.

I’ll post an update when it’s ready to ship, but it is still happening.

Thanks for your question.

You really needed (and still need) to constrain yourself with a deadline if not other things.  You have let "perfect" become the enemy of the "really good."  10+ years is a ridiculous amount of time to spend designing a new keyboard and switches from scratch, no matter how good, and regardless of the adversity and challenges you and the world have faced.  You could have released intermediate products over time and iterated over the design.  I appreciate that you refunded my money a few years ago.

So, the listing is gone from Mekibo and they refunded my purchase (unasked for), so I'm going to assume this is cancelled? :(
I'm very sorry for this poor outcome, .Thank you all for your support and expectations. I hope next project will be successful. Thank you

Some kitting suggestions:

Base kit
Show Image
  • I recommend moving the R1 1u PgDn and End keys from base to the numpad kit (example) since those two keys are only useful for layouts with numpads, e.g. 1800/CP/96-key.
  • I also recommend removing the second R4 1u Ctrl key from base since there are no non-40% layouts that use two of them.
  • In place of those keys, I recommend adding two R4 1.5u Super keys to base, to support Mac layouts and various HHKB-style boards.


Spacebar kit
Show Image
  • I'm pretty sure most people prefer alpha-colored spacekeys, so I suggest changing the dark gray keys in this kit to white (to match the spacekeys included in base).
  • You can keep the 2u, 2.25u, 2.75u spaces gray as an alternative if you really want to, but I don't think you need to.

40s kit

drift boss
  • There are a lot of duplicate keys in this kit which should be removed. For example: R2 1u Delete, R2 1.75u Backspace, R3 1.25u Tab, R4 1u/1.75u Shift, accent arrow keys, R4 1u/1.25u/1.5u Ctrl/Alt/Shift etc. are all already included in the base kit and thus unnecessary in this child kit.
  • Offering only accent-colored spacekeys for 40% boards is weird. Consider changing at least some of them to white.
The color palette looks amazing. The dark gray, red, and purple tones fit the fallen angel theme perfectly.

Reviews / TTC Brother V2 Switch Review

Hey all,

A clicky switch? In 2026? When I heard that TTC was doing a re-up of their classic Brother clicky switches I knew for a fact I was going to review them and that day is finally here. This is your deep dive on the new click bar TTC Brother V2 clicky switches. I wonder how these shape up to the likes of Kailh who is in arguably *the* click bar masters?
