V Design
FEATURES - Eclipse lip lowers front height even more and adds comfort for thumbs. - Seamless side with minimal thickness bezels. Deep edge chamfer enhances the appearance without being too thin and affecting sound. - Multi-directional alignment sections for easy assembly. - Magnetic, swappable emblems are enamel filled and hand-finished. - TAP authentication microchip. Ownership can be registered and transferred.
PERFORMANCE - Integrated 8 point silicone force-break to prevent unwanted resonance. - Maximized internal mass while maintaining plate flex and low front height. Provides sound diffusion helping isolate second reflections. - Optimized plate mounts for unformal flex at home row. No mounts under the spacebar for best typing feel. - Distance between the bottom of switches to case is equal across the board. - Sound travels uninterrupted between PCB and bottom aluminum case. No weights, daughter board, foam, or screws are exposed to the bottom of PCB. Producing a uniform and bright sound-signature. JST cable is routed from the back of the chassis.
ASSEMBLY - Convenient mountable magnetic weight. Can be removed while fully assembled with the included KEY tool. - Cable Shield allows the use of a longer JST cable to make install easier and prevents wire damage. Cut from polycarbonate so you can see if the cable is pinched. - Pressure fitted feet that do not need to be removed for disassembly. - Tadpoles and gummy o-ring can be customized to different harnesses. - T10 Magnetic hardware for the entire build, can be built with the single included Torx bit.
