Customer Reviews
10/10 wonderful zmk integration
I am pretty technical, but not particularly experienced with hardware. The soldering and assembly was easy, and the troubleshooting documentation was exactly what I needed to understand which of my terrible soldering jobs was to blame!
This was my first custom keyboard and I look forward to doing many more.
I bought the kit with the solderless pins and had a blast putting everything together and it works perfectly. Everything comes nicely packaged. Very recommended
1 week battery life is a bit lower than I would expect for my first small form factor, boutique board. Unless I'm missing something, the default keymap is also missing a question mark.
I've only had the board for 2 weeks at this point but typing on my full size board already feels awkward. My accuracy is still a bit rough but improving.
Everything that you need comes with the kit. I opted for the non-soldered option and everything was great.
