Just received my F1-8X V2 shipped from Korea !
Hotswap Gondolindrim PCB, I like that this time there are leds only under the capslock and numlock keys.
And look at this, there are plenty vias around kailh hotswap pads !
This addition is a must to not rip hotswap pads during switches installation, great !
I will most probably build it somewhere in May.
I have some still unused 8008 Gateron Ink switches but I am not sure those are the best for this board.
I was planning maybe to buy some Gateron Oil King or Cherry MX New Nixies, don’t hesitate to give me feedback on what would be the best
And last picture is the unbuild F1-8X V2 in front of my own Aquanaut design.
A lot of inspiration designing this board comes from the F1-8X, a board that I never owned until today
