Intro
The Phantom PCB is a custom tenkeyless board designed by bpiphany (formally PrinsValium) to be used with the teensy 2 programmable usb controller and a mounting plate.
Main features:
• 1.5x and 1.25x modifiers
• Center stemmed and off-center caps lock
• 7x Cherry spacebars
• ISO and ANSI layouts
• 5 extra keys above the arrow key cluster
• Costar and Cherry stabilizers
• 6KRO over USB
• In-switch LED at caps/scroll lock and Filco style LEDs
• Switch top removal without desoldering
• LED brightness control
• Firmware source code can be used to remap keys
We will be keeping the PCB black with white LEDs like the original GB
What's included
1 – Phantom PCB
100 – Diodes
2 – LEDs
2 – Resistors for LEDs
What you'll need
Cherry MX switches
A Teensy 2.0 controller with header pins: http://www.pjrc.com/store/teensy_pins.html
Stabilizers (Costar or Cherry)
Mounting plate
----Tools----
Soldering iron
Solder
Wire cutter (or if you’re cheap like me nail clippers)
Desoldering tool/braid (unless you never plan to desolder anything and won’t make any mistakes)
A DMM(or an old school multimeter) is useful to test for continuity, even super cheap ones will work fine
Pricing
Everything in the “What’s included” section above will cost $35 per board.
Shipping
I’ve calculated shipping based on estimated weights of various parts. Shipping boxes are 6 ounces, boards 5 ounces, diodes/leds/resistors are negligible, and 1 ounce extra for packing paper. Price below are calculated from costs from USPS (added $2 to each price to account for cost of packaging materials like boxes, paper, tape, etc).
Domestic (US only)
1 board - $8
2-4 boards - $10
5-8 boards - $12
International
1 board - $12
2 boards - $15
Unfortunately, international shipping is quite a bit more especially once several boards are involved since price hikes happen at 4 ounce intervals as opposed to domestic which increases prices at every pound. For larger orders, PM me and we will figure out the best/cheapest way to ship.
If it is the case that we have a large amount of international orders, it might be beneficiary to find an EU distributer, but for now just take the prices I have posted as the maximum you’d have to pay.
