Akko MOD 004 Hot-Swappable Barebone Keyboard Dark Night $169 + Free Shipping (RRP $229) @ PC Case Gear

50

Part of Easter Sales that is happening at PC Case Gear atm:

The Akko MOD 004 Hot-Swappable Barebone Keyboard is a compact full-sized keyboard that features a tray-mounted hot-swappable design, north-facing RGB, is compatible with 3-pin and 5-pin switches, aluminum housing, EVA foam for sound dampening, includes stabilizers and a dark night colour theme.

Tray-mount
Hot-swappable
Compatible with 3-pin & 5-pin switches
North-facing RGB Backlit (Akko CS switches will NOT cause LED interference with Akko Cherry keycap sets)

Pro: Normally priced around $229. Good price including free shipping. Seems like a great entry custom keyboard into the enthusiast mechanical keyboard scene with the likes of GMMK pro and keychron Q1.
Con: North-facing RGB so it may interfere with the lighting for the usual cherry keycaps except the akko versions.

    Great deal! One thing to note though, is that this board is not QMK or VIA-compatible, and users will need to use Akko's own software to customise keys (no experience with Akko's software).

  • A keyboard without keys? That's like a bike without pedals!

    • There's a bit more missing than that. It's a barebone keyboard, which means you'll need keycaps and switches.

        Thats the funny thing about custom keyboard - you want to be able to get your own switches and keycaps and customised it as much as you want to get the best THOCK

  • Think I'd rather the 003 which is gasket mount

    Bought it anyway. Worst case I'll use it for work

    • yeah good point. Gasket mount would definitely be more ideal but i think given the pricing, its still a pretty good custom keyboard

    PCCG and free shipping is a deal in itself.
