Orion V2 Kustom TKL Group Buy

3 including Christmas day

[Pemdas]

8 months 17 days from placing my order, I now have a working Orion V2 in my hands! What a journey!

Definitely worth the wait!  Haven't fiddled around with the keymapping yet (gonna start now) but got it all assembled!

I used 65g tactile Zealios only had 4 switches with the chattering problem but got them fixed up no problem.







All in all VERY satisfied with the board! Loving the blue and silver combo too glad I switched over from black 

Thanks Elton and Duck and anyone else invovled 


And a link to some more pictures I took during the build if anyone is interested

Very nice! I see you sip-socketed your switches but didn't add LEDs, how come?

Thanks! Can finally join the kustom club 

I prefer keyboards with no backlight usually. I think out of the 10 keyboards I own only 1 has full backlighting. With that said I put in sip sockets because I like having the option to go full out with the lighting if the mood hits me. Better to put them in now than desoldering the board and putting them in later

Yeah sip-socketing is always a good idea even if you don't like backlighting it helps if you ever need to sell the board. I love backlighting myself so I, the Orion v2 is meant to light like the sun.

Glorious, simply glorious. I love the way the RGB shines up through the Zealios.

Hotswapping is always a good option, even if you never use the functionality yourself. Whether it's for switches or LEDs. I've SIP socketed ALL of my MX boards and it's very nice to switch up the colors at will if needed.

Oooh, that aluminum on aluminum though. I CANNOT wait for the Octagon v2, where I'll finally pick a more subtle color as opposed to my overall favorite case color, red. It's super hard to find a set that really gels well with a red case, but it's hard to pass up that fiery hue. Ahh, so good.

This time I'm going to go for silver top and blue grey bottom!  :thumb:

Did you end up getting two different bottom halves, or do you have TWO Orion v2s? :O

If you're wondering if it's possible to have two different colored halves for a single order when you go for the octagon then yes you should be able to do that. My orders were like that and they came out perfectly.   I say should because you never know if duck will change that option in the future.

Oh no, I was asking more so whether or not he bought a few different lowers or actually bought two different Orions to go with the angled acrylic bottom and the aluminum bottom in his imgur album.

Yeah, I'm expecting Duck to leave that option open, especially considering how he had some renders of the Octagon v2 with dual tone color schemes.

3 including Christmas day

Well that's mildly worrying, then.
Fingers crossed someone just forgot to update tracking data and it's on its way.

[Pemdas]

sweet man!  Just made me realize I need to get order a usb cable  )

I still need to order a new cable that's just for the Orion too!

Yeah sip-socketing is always a good idea even if you don't like backlighting it helps if you ever need to sell the board. I love backlighting myself so I, the Orion v2 is meant to light like the sun.

I'm probably gonna light this one up sooner or later, with the acrylic back I'll be able to use this as a flashlight )

Well that's mildly worrying, then.
Fingers crossed someone just forgot to update tracking data and it's on its way.

I've had so many packages just show up without updated tracking, hopefully you get yours with no problems!

I just got one Orion with 2 backs. The silver bottom and acrylic angled bottom, and now that I've seen the pictures I'm kicking myself for not getting the flat acrylic bottom it was so cheap....

And go red again! You have the Jukebox set you're set for life on keysets that look good on red keyboards :p I want to get a "out there" color for my next one. Like a pink or purple.

6 switches lubed and sipped

just did 90 zealios today... not for orion though.  took a good 3 hours to take apart, lube, SIP socket.

Congratulations! That is as great looking boards, and I especially love the look of the LEDs with the clear switch tops.

Hehe, I've got a potential Alps Orion v2 build lined up for Slushi so I have to be prepared, but SMD isn't so bad!

[orcinus]

SMD diodes are easy peasy. Much prefer dealing with those than through hole components.
All it takes is solder with good flux and tweezers.

Still no updates on my tracking T_T

It's not difficult at all just tedious, it's relatively easy but having to solder a resistor, diode, LED, and then the switch itself for a TKL board takes quite the amount of time.

I hear ya.
Always sucks. I've been accumulating parts for a new (custom watercooling loop) rig for months now.

There's always some **** missing and i have to wait for it.

Yep, the waiting and cost is why I chose a h100i for my rig.  Got it for $40 new reddit deal

DONE! Man this took me forever to finish. I was doing everything in fine detail. I am having an issue with my print screen button going off hundreds of times in seconds any ideas?

The LED's were going to be temporary because I didn't have enough of cyan but I really love how the colors mix. Also the TA set looked ugly at first but now it is love at first sight on the orion

Are you using zealous by chance? I had a couple chattering issues that made the switches activate before actually going all the way down.

Have you tried de-soldering just that switch and seeing if the issue persists? I'm not really sure it could be the firmware after messing around with it a bit, or it could a defective PCB which I sure hope not.

its the switch... once I remover solder from the joints it stopped the print screen. I wonder whats wrong with it. I can't take of the switch since my solder sucker sucks ass. just got this http://www.amazon.com/Engineer-SS-02-Solder-Sucker/dp/B002MJMXD4/ref=sr_1_3?dd=aKrOoZPHPFjYz6XKVlNrCg%2C%2C&ddc_refnmnt=pfod&ie=UTF8&qid=1451524284&sr=8-3&keywords=solder+sucker&refinements=p_97%3A11292772011 if I kept trying id probably burn the bad off

Ah at least it's the switch. I have the same solder sucker as well, I find it best if you can not get suck up all the solder the first time to re-solder it, heat up the solder, and then try and get the best seal possible with the solder sucker and then hit the button to suck it up. Sometimes if you leave a little gap it won't completely suck up all the solder, I'm definitely going to invest in a de-soldering station one of these times.

burn the pad*

yeah thats good I can live without a print screen for the mean time. yeah I tried to resolder and suck it out but my sucker just sucks. I don't want to burn the pad :( I just remembered my friend has a soldering station! going to take it to him to remove the solder.

do you know how to access fn or the other layers?

Have you tried de-soldering just that switch and seeing if the issue persists? I'm not really sure it could be the firmware after messing around with it a bit, or it could a defective PCB which I sure hope not.

its the switch... once I remover solder from the joints it stopped the print screen. I wonder whats wrong with it. I can't take of the switch since my solder sucker sucks ass. just got this http://www.amazon.com/Engineer-SS-02-Solder-Sucker/dp/B002MJMXD4/ref=sr_1_3?dd=aKrOoZPHPFjYz6XKVlNrCg%2C%2C&ddc_refnmnt=pfod&ie=UTF8&qid=1451524284&sr=8-3&keywords=solder+sucker&refinements=p_97%3A11292772011 if I kept trying id probably burn the bad off

Ah at least it's the switch. I have the same solder sucker as well, I find it best if you can not get suck up all the solder the first time to re-solder it, heat up the solder, and then try and get the best seal possible with the solder sucker and then hit the button to suck it up. Sometimes if you leave a little gap it won't completely suck up all the solder, I'm definitely going to invest in a de-soldering station one of these times.

burn the pad*

yeah thats good I can live without a print screen for the mean time. yeah I tried to resolder and suck it out but my sucker just sucks. I don't want to burn the pad :( I just remembered my friend has a soldering station! going to take it to him to remove the solder.

do you know how to access fn or the other layers?

I'm pretty sure there is not a key to layer change or function(since I have wkl) with the preset hex file loaded onto the board. I ended up changing my Pause key to layer change and it makes it very easy to rotate thru the layers. I have my second layer set for the LED controls.

Also the TA set looked ugly at first but now it is love at first sight on the orion

That's not how love at first sight works!
