The Kousa TKL is an ortholinear keyboard pcb designed to fit in H88c compatible TKL cases. It uses 1.5u Ergodoxian modifier keys, like a TKL version of the Promenade or original Boardwalk. The center column is designed to have hot swap sockets for either six 1u keys or four 1.5u vertical keys installed. This version comes with four hot swap sockets for four vertical 1.5u keys installed. The footprints exist for those that want to convert the board to 1u center column, but it requires soldering.

This is the PCB ONLY and does not come with keycaps, switches, a case, or a plate, etc. There are plate files available on the Discord server.

    • Layouts

    1.5u Layout Options ⌨ While the F13 layout aligns the center of the F-row with the center columns of the 60% alpha section for a symmetrical aesthetic, F12 layout is also possible. 1.5u version can be converted to 1u version and vice versa, but it requires desoldering and resoldering hotswap sockets.
  • 2u, 3u, 6u, 7u Spacebar support
    • Warning! Clip-in stabilizers or screw-in stabilizers can be used for 7u and 6u spacebars. Screw-in stabs are required for 3u and 2u stabilizer because the holes overlap and cannot be secured with clip-ins. For a 3u-1u-3u layout, clip in stabs are required due to hotswap socket obstructing the inner stabilizer screw holes.
  • Some of the switch locations on the 1u version require some switch legs to be trimmed if using 5-pin switches.
