  • Nov-Mu V2 on its way, if a mule, then this I would say! Everyone seems to love this light.

    I just ignore the existence of E07x Canon because if I just open its webpage I would end ordering it, too :D Hopefully it can be modded to make the beam pattern work with dedomed 519a - I also like a nice, even beam!

    Yeah the output with 4000K could be a letdown, espetially if the tint is greenish. Maybe I’ll change to the FFL emitter, but I really want to try out the 70.3. Maybe it won’t be the right host after all, I would like to drive it with as much current it can take! Does someone have suggestions on the best host for a 70.3 - high output wall of light, good sustain? The Convoy hosts (L6?) look very interesting.


  • Nice “black and white” collection you have there! Cool to see the two different and very characteristic styles from Hank and FF side by side.

    I have a Nov-Mu V2 in fossil grey on the way and the color looks awesome in pictures, with the marbled texture up close. For the X1L I’m debating, but I think I’ll go with matte black for the contrast with the shiny gloss of the stainless steel parts - unfortunately no clip in glossy black, but I will take it out eventually.

    I’m glad you report no issues with your lights!








  • Thanks! After the few days with a light use: very confortable, nice light texture, the dished caps really work well and are visually striking. I am only slightly slower than with the almost same board (Q10) with GMK CYL that I use extensively each day, so I would say the transition is really smooth. The reason for this is the very similar height profile of each row. Still, I believe that CYL is more efficient because I feel less “trapped” in each row than with MTNU’s spherical profile - as the correct typing movements involve more vertical finger movement than horizontal, so CYL imo makes more sense. The effect is obviously quite minor and I am nowhere near to being a fast typer, so take my feedback in this context ;)






  • I don’t have a lot of experience with ergo keyboards, but I found myself liking this Alice/Arisu layout quite a lot. I can keep my shoulders and arms more relaxed (I’m also quite tall, so a bit more room for my arms and hands is nice…). Only downside of these Keychron models is the tall height of the board. One could use a wrist rest though - Keychron themselves sell one - but I don’t use one. I also don’t type without interruptions the whole day, so it’s ok for me. Easy enough to go back to normal/laptop keys due to almost standard stagger and key layout.
