Re: [WTS] Alps blue (SKCM BLUE)

Are the clips that let the switches clip to a plate intact on all of them? yes they are Awesome! Thank you! I'd like to buy them but can't afford to now, so I'll contact you in the future if you still have them. Hello there thanks for your interest but the switches have been sold. Thanks again.

Re: Yet Another Bolt Mod

swelling of the rubber mat causes premature actuation. replace the mat if possible if not, remove it.

You didn't show the good stuff in the video! Let's see the PCB.
It is a prototype and there are a few amendments on it. but will not make a final one so just leave it as it is as the keyboard is working now.

see the photo of the pcb below.

I use a pro micro and a usb mini host shield for one and heak shank the combo. I also use a reed switch as reset.

the pro micro is 5V. I need to replace the regulator to make VCC output 3.3V while the mcu still running at 16Mhz.

Re: Model M Requires Hard Key Press on S & F Keys
