Hello everybody!
I hope you are all well. I am back
with updates to the Pollen65 kit!
The Pollen65 is a 6° sandwich mount kit that includes
the case, plate and custom KeyBee 65% PCB (KB65), all
wrapped up in our new custom packaging!
ABOUT THE CASE
With the Pollen65, we want to expand on what weve
done well and improve in areas that need it. We learned a
lot from the Stripe60 as it was our first project. This
being said, we will bring everything we learned into the
Pollen65.
The official colors for the case top and
bottom parts of the case (not plate) will be:
Orange
Tangerine
Blue Blueberry
Purple Concord
Pollen65 Concord with GMK Avanguardia
Black
Blackberry
Pollen65 Blackberry with GMK Oblivion
The cases
will be 6061 aluminum for the top and bottom pieces with a
6° angle from the back of the case as shown. For the plate
materials, we will be offering brushed brass, brushed
aluminum, and frosted polycarbonate for those who enjoy a
little RGB in their lives.
Official Pantones:
-
Tangerine
-
Blueberry
-
Concord
-
Blackberry
ABOUT THE PCB
For this release, we
plan to offer a PCB that is made for the case. This will
play off of popular compact 65% layouts that utilize 68
keys, so there is a possibility that we will sell the PCBs
separately for those who need one for a separate build.
The
PCB will be hotswappable and offer front-facing LEDs. We
wanted to make sure that this PCB offered something for
everyone. Of course, you may turn off the LEDs if thats not
your thing. We plan to have this be compatible with your
favorite software. VIA is currently in our sights, although
you may let us know if you think we should go another
direction. The PCB will also utilize a USB-C port on the
back left side of the case. We plan to work with a local 3rd
party cable maker for an option of a color matched cable!
RELEASE AND PRICING
The
preorders will run for 8 weeks, starting on 3/15. During
this time, I will be doing QC personally and packing the
orders as they arrive. Of course, these are tentative, but I
feel confident that we can stick closely to the timeline
given.
We’re looking at $224.94 for the kit as a
whole!
