Does anyone need a USB-C beam spring controller and/or solenoid driver?
I am ordering more of the beam spring controllers - fully assembled at the PCB factory - but this time with a USB-C connector.
Solenoid drivers work with all Model F xwhatsit and beam spring xwhatsit controllers, including the Brand New Model F keyboards.
They can now be ordered here - see this page for more details:
https://www.modelfkeyboards.com/product/xwhatsit-beam-spring-or-model-f-controller/I am also ordering USB-C displaywriter xwhatsit beam spring controllers. They are a separate design. I now have enough commitments to put these into production.
These should start shipping next month, but will be low priority compared to getting out the new Model F keyboards. Fortunately they are far easier to QC and ship than a keyboard. If the dye sub keys arrive then, these will ship out more slowly. Check out the above linked page for more details.
Timeline:
Placing the order: week of 6/29/20
PCB Production+Assembly: July 2020
Shipping: End of July or early August 2020
Below is a photo from the last run (not USB-C):
