Hi everyone! I’m planning on getting a split keyboard to replace my planck, but I don’t have a soldering iron.
What are my options ? Ideally I want:
- DIY, no soldering involved
- QMK firmware
- 40% format
The keyboard I’m leaning toward is the let’s split as it’s a planck split in two halves, but it seems that you need to at least solder the keycaps yourself, which I can’t.
1 point
Or one could buy any of the existing pre-built splits. Which might be more expensive, but it does not involve something one very explicitly said they don’t want to do.
I’d rather spend twice as much on a well built keyboard with warranty than trying to solder one together myself and botch it up, and then it suddenly costs more than if I just bought a pre-built one.
