Been iterating a bit on my revxlp design, and a frequent request is for a 10u/“5 col” version.

Finally did a build of the first protos, and it’s working great! I want to do a few tweaks for the newly added ability to use the single color LEDs for either per -key or bottom backlighting, once that’s done I’ll formally release the changes.

This particular build was half soldered by our elder daughter, and she fully assembled post-soldering including keycap selection. I love the look she chose, which she said “reminded her of a sunset over the water”

  • 10u revxlp
  • XIAO RP2040 running ZMK
  • Keycaps:
    • MBK: dyes from MKU and factory dyes from LowProKB
    • Asymplex convex 1u artisans for the bottom row
  • Choc whites
  • MJF nylon case print from JLC

    Awesome, you deserve thx so much. I will try again soon as some of the components are not available, indeed. Would be nice to get it assembled fully.

      Do remember that even with assembly on the bottom, you still need to solder the controller sockets, pogos, and battery connector.
