ROUND 1 (COMPLETED)
More

Hello Geekhackers and Mech friends,
We’re Team Mechlovin’ - a small team of 2 mech enthusiasts specialised in providing third-party PCB and Plate solutions. We’re kind of new here on Geekhack, but the fact is we have run 2 very successful GBs on Reddit for the Hannah 910 (TGR 910 compatible) PCBs & Plates. Due to our products being offered in limited quantity (40 for the 1st run and 20 for the 2nd run), we never had the chance to post our GBs on Geekhack because they all sold out too fast! We have received very positive feedback from our customers, and learning so much along the way, which is extremely rewarding. This time, as we go unlimited, we’re happy to offer a new and improved version of the Hannah 910 PCB & FR4 Plate, and a new arrival: The INFINITY CE PCB & Plate - compatible with the Jane V2 CE and other boards that use the same layout.
**WHAT’S AVAILABLE FOR THIS BUY?
**
Hannah 910 V2 PCB & FR4 Plate - compatible with all TGR 910 variants and now, the Exent 65! We’ve decided to add compatibility support for the Exent by adding switch footprint at the top right position. Also, underglow RGBs are now available and pre-soldered for your polycarbonate goodness!
Infinity CE PCB & FR4 Plate - compatible with the Jane V2 CE and other boards that utilise the same layout. Underglow RGBs available and pre-soldered! Also, to celebrate the comeback of the glorious F13, we’ve added customisable RGBs at that particular position (see here: https://EnterEnter.oss-cn-shanghai.aliyuncs.com/geekhack/104345/GyH1G1M.jpg?x-oss-process=style/EnterEnter ). It’ll be great for your favourite artisan cap!
No other materials for plates apart from FR4 will be available for this round. Since we decide to go for unlimited quantity, we would like to focus on the fewest items possible. We’ll be working on other materials for plate (aluminum, brass, polycarbonate…) and offer them once our site is live in near future.

F13 Goodness!

• Price: $45 (USD) per PCB and $25 (USD) per FR4 Plate, plus international shipping from Vietnam (calculated based on buyer’s location
• MOQ: None. Maximum order quantity: None
• Group buy form opens on Thursday, January 23rd at 23:00 (GMT+7) for TEN DAYS.

Shipping will mostly be handled by my trusted proxy with USPS tracking for US-based buyers; DHL Global tracking for Canada and some European countries (expected delivery: 2 weeks). For countries that are not yet supported by the proxy, Standard Post (trackable) will be utilised. You can also choose EMS express service, and while it’s quite expensive, it is great if you live in Asia or Europe and want quicker delivery (normally within 10 days).

ROUND 2
**OVERVIEW: WHAT’S CHANGED (AND IMPROVED)
**

  • The Hannah 910 PCB is now also compatible with the Exent and Dolinger 2017 thanks to the added switch footprints. IMPORTANT NOTE: We had a major oversight in production of the previous round of Hannah 910 PCB (Rev. 2), making it incompatible with the Exent despite our earlier communication. Anyone who bought Hannah 910 Rev. 2 for use with the Exent (and unable to), please contact us for free replacement.
  • The new Infinity 88 PCB (formerly known as the Infinity CE) has gone through a major design overhaul, and is now using an ARM-based MCU (compared with the ATMEGA43U4 from the previous round).
  • We decided to remove the upside LEDs on both PCBs (top right blocker position on Hannah 910 and F13 position on Infinity 88) due to the fact that they aren’t very robust, especially during transit.
  • Added polycarbonate plate option.
  • Added Petite 1.2mm PCB option

**WHAT’S AVAILABLE FOR THIS GROUP BUY
**- Hannah 910 PCB Rev 3 - Compatible with TGR 910 and Exent; Dolinger 2017 and Dolinger RE (and possibly other 65% boards with centered mini-USB port). The USB port is a bit recessed on the Dolingers, but the cutout on these cases are quite large so the right cable should work (ones without the large connector heads). RGB underglow LEDs pre-soldered. Mini USB. Available in Standard thickness 1.6mm and Petite 1.2mm with 0.4mm spacers included.

  • Infinity 88 PCB - Compatible with Jane V2 CE; KFE; N-Dash and other boards utilising the same footprint (88 key layout with A87 Mini USB connection). RGB underglow LEDs pre-soldered. Mini USB. Available in Standard thickness 1.6mm and Petite 1.2mm with 0.4mm spacers included.
  • Hannah 910 FR4 & Polycarbonate Plates - Compatible with TGR 910 (and other boards using the same plate design)
  • Infinity 88 FR4 & Polycarbonate Plates - Compatible with Jane V2 CE (and other boards using the same plate design)

LEAD TIME AND SHIPPING
We have a limited number of the Standard thickness (1.6mm) Hannah 910 and Infinity 88 PCBs already in stock, so some early orders containing only those items are ready to ship. In general though, the expected production time is around 6-8 weeks, so shipping’s expected to start around mid-end January 2021.
Shipping during the pandemic is difficult. We have reliable US and EU proxies (12-14 day delivery) and a contract with DHL(3-5 day delivery) with very competitive pricing. Though we’re still offering standard shipping (using national post) for non-US and non-EU destinations, we highly recommend choosing the DHL option for much faster and safer shipping, especially for large orders as the added cost per item is more than worth it in our opinion.
Shipping rates shown in the form are applied to up to 5 items, and are subject to increase if the number of items order exceeds 5.
Thank you and stay safe everyone!
