Interest Checks / [IC] KKB 1001 Nights
« Last post by yowzers2026 on Thu, 15 October 2026, 03:23:41 »
KKB 1001 Nights



Hi everyone!

I want to share my first set design, KKB 1001 Nights, a Cherry keycap set manufactured by Key Kobo.

1001 Nights is inspired by the imagery from the stories in One Thousand and One Nights (Arabian Nights). The set uses deep midnight blue, metallic gold ABS, and light periwinkle accents. It features metallic gold Arabic sublegends and a novelty kit with designs based on elements from the stories + macros inspired by the multi-volume published editions.

The Arabic sublegends and novelty artwork are UV printed, while the main legends are 2shot.

I'm also leaning toward converting the Alt Alphas kit into a full 60% kit. I'll follow up with updated renders once those changes are made.

Hello everyone! I am terribly sorry for taking this long to update you, I wanted to wait for the final numbers and confirmations before saying anything.
Cobalt will... Move on to production!

I want to thank every single one of you who supported this project and made it possible, it means more to me than you can know.  :D

No one's talking about how Amazon has inadvertently taken over the USPS
I placed orders on 3x sites that were not Amazon-affiliated, and all 3 used Amazon to ship.
The silent takeover, although I don't think that was Baldzos' plan

This TKL keyboard kit thread is super helpful for comparing builds. I always struggle with getting the right specs, just like when I need to <a href="https://upscaleimage.pro/dpi-converter">Change image DPI</a> for printing. That free tool makes it easy without uploading anything.

Tp4 is very Xcite for  Ventiva, ionic cooling modules.

Basically, scientifically it's dat bald guy with the ionic breeze air purifier,  but smaller.


Now,  Tp4 thinks the ozone gas issue is an acceptable trade-off, 

But the big hurdle here is,  This is almost certainly going to kill someone's pet-parakeet,

Annnnnnd,  boom,  no one wants to buy supr silent ionic coolers.

Major headwinds.

Even if it's safe for humans,   they're going to jump on the thing the moment it hits internet viral outrage generator.

OH NO,  My  Dell Laptop killed my Parakeet,    Hide yo wife,  hide yo kiz,   laptop = murder.


Understand that parakeets have exceptionally sensitive lungs different from humans, where even "legal" emission standards for Ozone COULD KILL the birbs.

Many'o news cases over the years where air purifiers with built in ionizers have Murdered people's pet parakeets.




Upon further research, they is says,  40watt solution is more/less the max given the physics and the constraints.

This is pretttty gud, patherlake is quite gud @ 40 watt.   Though TP4 argues it currently stilllll needs 65 to really getrdone, in reality maxed out, pantherlake is a 100watt design.  They lie about the 80 even.


That being the case,  Assuming TSMC's  bleeding edge AMD chip, on their 2nm+++++ ,  You could see something quite gud' @ 45 watts.

Though,  mmmm... Even with optimizations, 45watt is not a fun place to be overall. but for ultra-portable.  It'll have to do.


The depressing news is , this won't scale to 100watt solutions, so you'll almost certainly NEVER achieve silent G4m3r laptop.
