Description
EDIT: These are now fully sold out. Apologies if you didn't get one, but you had more than 1 week before it sold out! Options will be finalized on May 20th - I'll update the spreadsheet again tonight (15th), and again on the 17th, 18th, 19th, and 20th.
The Satisfaction 75 is a 75% keyboard featuring a rotary encoder (knob), and an OLED screen. The design was inspired by Pirate Captain Henry Morgan's flagship vessel the "Satisfaction". The curve in the back of the case is supposed to be reminiscent of a pirate ship.
The keyboard has all of the following features: OLED Screen Real time clock Rotary encoder with really nice knobs VIA Configurator Support and Powered by QMK STM32 ARM Microprocessor South facing backlight LEDs (single color) "Burger" o-ring top mount plate 6 degree slope Aluminum Top and Bottom, Brass plate, Brass weight Right side USB-C Weights 1.7 kg / 3.75 lbs without switches, PCB, keycaps, or knob Dimensions: 327mm x 136mm x 40mm (with default knob and cherry keycaps)
The PCB supports ISO, but plates will not be offered in ISO. DXF files for plates will be made available once the purchasing period ends. The PCB will be a blue color. PCB Layout Support
The bottom weight has some engraved artwork.
The saber will move to the right to be close to the treasure chest in production. This will make the weight look cleaner. Blank weights are available as extras.
Every kit comes with a top, bottom, sandblasted brass plate, and sandblasted and engraved weight. Additionally, a PCB, an OLED screen (white or blue), rotary encoder, and knob will also be provided. Each Satisfaction75 will also come with a neoprene carrying sleeve. The brass is raw brass, its not sealed, and as such, it can patina. You can use brasso every so often to clean off the developing patina. But this should look really good with a nice patina.
After the group buy period ends, I will release plate DXF files to the public.
Pricing for this group buy will start at a base price of $399.99. I wanted to aim for lower, but the factory I ended up going with is one of the pricier ones. In return for the added expense, they meet my quality bar.
The following colors are available: Deep Ocean Blue (Navy Blue - Pantone 2767C) Cloud White (E-white - Extra $20 Charge) Stormy Gray (Dark Gray - RAL 7021) Pirate Black (Anodized Black)
Color examples and renders: Original Prototype, Pirate Black. NOTE: DESIGN NOT ACCURATE TO PRODUCTION.
Cloud White w/ GMK Mizu (Render)
Stormy Grey w/ GMK Modern Dolch (Render)
Deep Ocean Blue w/ GMK Voyage (Render)
Deep Ocean Blue w/ GMK Calm Depths (Render)
Only 40 units of the Cloud White color will be made available. COLOR DISCLAIMER: The prototype is not quite Pantone 2767C. The factory has not guaranteed being able to get a perfect match, but they will get as close as possible. This also applies for the RAL 7021 Dark Grey.
By default, the kit comes with the following knob: You can choose between silver, black, and gold.
The following extras will also be available: Extra PCB +$45 Extra OLED +$4 Extra Weight (Blank) +$45 Extra Plate (Brass) Standard +$45 Extra Plate (Brass) WKL +$45 Extra Plate (FR4 - White) Std +$25 Extra Plate (FR4 - White) WKL +$25 Extra Default Knob +$7 Pearloid Knob +$13
The Pearloid Knob looks like this: And fits best with high profile keycaps. It's also available in silver, black, and gold.
Unfortunately, due to the CITES Conservation Treaty, I will not be offering Mother of Pearl knobs. Since I can't ship them outside the US, it would add an extra layer of logistics I do not want to handle.
Finally, I'll also be offering a beautiful RAMA knob to go with the Satisfaction 75, and should pair nicely with Cherry profile keycaps. It's a Brass knob with a gold PVD finish.
There will be 200 slots for this group buy. I do not expect to hit 200 units sold, and I hope that everyone who wants one of these boards can get one, but 200 is the absolute limit of what I can handle. I'm willing to QC and fulfill so many units in an effort to prevent ridiculous flipping as soon as the GB is over. Estimated time of delivery is Late October. Shipping will be staggered, and orders will be fulfilled in the order that they are placed.
Shipping will be charged at time of purchase, based on the rates I will have to pay to ship the items.
In summary: $399.99 Base Price - Includes top, bottom, brass plate, engraved brass weight, PCB, OLED screen, rotary encoder, knob, neoprene sleeve 200 Unit Limit, 40 Cloud White Limit Shipping paid upfront Estimated time of delivery is Late October Shipping will be staggered, and orders will be fulfilled in the order that they are placed.
