Description

Our new fully self-contained EC switches will make building a breeze

Gone are the days of hunting down rubber dome sheets, springs, sliders and stabilisers. No longer will you suffer topre pains where you've misaligned the rubber domes, or clipping your GMK keycaps to fit into stabilisers.

We've taken what we love from Topre and refined it into a Cherry MX compatible switch, using the 14x14mm footprint, it allows compatibility with MX stabilisers and MX keycaps. The weight of Naevies EC switches is 45g.

We currently support our Satellite keyboard with an upgrade kit. For other boards, you may need to get a new plate cut to support, or design a PCB to fit.

Domes

Our Raeds HE and Naevies EC switches use a silicone dome that can be freely swapped around (with Naevies EC you will need to transfer the spring as well).

We have newly launched 60g Linear Domes as well for purchase.

Compatibility Notes

Domes: these switches are not compatible with Topre or other rubber dome sheets. Naevies use a custom rubber dome that fits into the MX footprint, and is aligned into our switches using corner pillars.

PCBSs: they should work with existing Topre/EC PCBs, but it is not a drop in replacement - you will need to do your own testing, and will need to be able to calibrate your EC PCB.

Plates: Topre plates are unique in that it is usually an injected plastic frame to support the sliders. Naevies use the MX footprint and you are likely to be familiar with this style of plate. Please note that we have specific screw/standoff placement, to ensure a fight and rigid fit that is required for EC PCBs.

Constellation: our current iteration of EC PCB is not compatible with the Constellation keyboard case due to o-ring pillars being in the way, but we are looking into solving this.

Existing Satellite Users

You will need to purchase an EC Upgrade Kit that contains the PCB, plate and 2 packs (70) switches. You will also need another set of Staebies or other stabilisers.

Written by Lightning Keyboard

Unlike traditional mechanical keyboard guides that focus on Cherry MX switches and standard PCBs, this guide explores the world of Electro-Capacitive (EC) technology.

EC keyboards have long been revered in the mechanical keyboard community, thanks to Topre and the rise of EC-compatible PCBs and aftermarket components like domes, conical springs, and stem sliders.

Whether you're new to EC or looking to refine your build, this guide has everything you need to get started.
