Hi here! Createkeebs is back, and we're thrilled to share our latest work with you: the LuminKey75 keyboard. It will be available for purchase on Createkeebs' official website and from our vendors in June 2023. https://createkeebs.com/pages/createkeebs-luminkey75-hot-swappable-custom-mechanical-keyboard We're launching this IC to gather some final feedback and gauge interest in the board before it goes into market. Let us introduce it to you. On the front: The 75% layout features F13 keys and arrow keys, making it more convenient to use directional keys and functional areas with the compact than 80% layout. The alpha area has an extra slope for a more comfortable typing experience. We also chose a horizontal encoder roller instead of the common vertical encoder knob, providing longer service life and a more coordinated look for the front of the keyboard. Side: We designed special joints on the upper and lower shells of the keyboard to make it look suspended and more technological. In the right corner of the bottom case, design concave and engraved logo “CREATEKEEBS” make it more recognizable. Back: The back of the keyboard is equipped with brass weight and a luminous block of RGB in the corner. The '07' engraving on the luminous block represents our 7th work. About the inner and structure: This time, we adopted a 1.6mm PCB without grooving. After repeated experiments, we decided not to do grooving treatment, as there is little difference in sound with or without grooving under the addition of ixpe and plate poron foam. However, grooving without the use of ixpe or plate poron will seriously affect the sound and result in poor consistency. The soft elastic feel of the gasket is provided by the Leaf spring and gasket socket on the PC plate. To ensure consistency of the typing sound, we designed an aluminum cover plate of the battery on the Bluetooth battery room, which can cover a large area of the bottom case. (Tip: Luminkey75 can be updated to BLE version later.) Optional color: For the first batch, we offer two colors in-stock sale: Dark Black(Anode) and Cream white(Electrophoresis).more GB Colors will be released in future. About the fully assembled keyboard: To make it more convenient for you to experience our keyboard, we've launched a fully assembled kit that includes switches, stabilizers, and keycaps. Gateron Switches:It equipped with Gateron baby racoon linear switches, It is lengthened POM stem and lightweight 2.0 top housing, with silky feeling and smooth bottom, so that the type sound is more concentrated. Gateron baby racoon Switches parameters: Operating force: 55g Pretravel: 2mm Total travel: 3.6mm Top housing material: PC Bottom housing material: Nylon Stem material: Pom Spring length: 20mm Factory Lube: Yes Stabilizers: Gateron stabilizers,each adjusted and corrected by factory. About the keycaps: We're honored to have a long-term cooperation with Enjoy-PBT. Createkeebs Luminkey75 will debut WOB-75% custom models with Enjoy-PBT's latest two-color PBT process. We believe that both the workmanship and touch feeling will be satisfactory.
