Keeb

My collection of mechanical keyboards.

Keyboard

iKBC CD87 Cherry MX Blue

My first keeb.

Damn it's so loud :D

KBDfans X Lazurite D60Lite

I bought it from my friend.

Specs

keeb-002

keeb-003

  • USB-C
  • PCB: DZ60 RGB-WKL Hot-Swap
    • 2 switches in the top left (usually keys ESC, 1) need to be reversed to work.

Layout

For mapping I use VIA. Thankfully. my friend already flashed it for me.

Alternatively, you can use Vial.

VIA layout JSON

My layout is based on HHKB layout:

keeb-004

My layout's quirk:

  • Replace Caps Lock 1.75U with Control 1.75U.
  • 2 Command 1.5U.
  • 2 Alt 1U.
  • 1 Backspace 1.5U.
  • 1 |\ 1U.
  • 1 Shift 1.75U.
  • 1 Space 7U.

Review

Things I don't like, also honest review from Reddit:

  • The sides don't have any gaskets, so the keys on the far left and right bend down more. They will pop out of the hotswap PCB or the plate if pressing too hard.

Currently, I use Akko 9009 Cherry Profile (having all basic keys) and EnjoyPBT 9009 Cherry Profile (only vim keys).
