Sold Amiga MX Style Keycaps & PCBs

The switch is kind of a preference, but I think the "bananas" are very nice.

What are they like? Clicks, lo profile?

I don’t mind if they are clicky, or lo profile - just as long as they are good!

I like them, the bananas have good travel and a nice weight to them, they do click but nothing super loud.

Also bananas are what Aeberbach used when he was making the keyboards for sale, and I trust his judgement.

The banana switches are basically like MX brown switches but slightly heavier. They are a tactile - here's the PDF.

Any KS-33 with matching footprint will fit. If it fits and you like it, it's a good choice. Unless you pick blue and you use it next to me!

The mk2 keyboard intro on GitHub specifically says to use the KS-33 keys - as the board has changed from MX style keys?

And I’m kinda confused by “banana keys” is that another brand or something?

Thanks

Check the PDF - they are KS-33 style, Banana variant - it really just means they are a tactile keyswitch with a "banana" colored plunger. The plunger accepts MX-fit keycaps, but does not use the same mounting footprint as a MX keyswitch.

Thank you, that makes sense!

And the blue, what are they like please?

I want to get some of the pcb’s made, using your GitHub.

Would it be ok to PM you a couple of questions please?

 

[Aeberbach]

I find blue too clicky and annoying but some people like them. Sure you can ask questions.

today I received the CD-32 styled keys - I am attaching a photo because the light grey keys are very legible and they have no visibility issues , just like steveed said but the photos do not do them justice

Received my CD32 set today, very happy with them. Here's a couple of pics of them in black and carbon shells:

It was from the initial Kickstarter for the cases in a bundle with black keycaps, it took 4 years to arrive! I've never seen it for sale elsewhere unfortunately
