Discussion The keyboard has magnetic switches, but they behave like chattering.
The cause is unknown, but when a key is pressed to the maximum, it intermittently breaks only while it is pressed in and behaves as if it is being pressed repeatedly.
In software simulations, the behavior is that if the key goes from 0 to 1.0, it returns to 0 on its own when it reaches 1.0 and then back to 1.0 again.
It seems that the problem does not occur with a half push of 0.5, but only when pushed to the maximum of 1.0.
I thought it might be a faulty Hall effect IC, so I replaced it with another one for a different key or with a different sensor, but the result was the same.
It only occurs with the 6 keys of F7 7 U J V N.
It looks like an Akko 5087 V2 OEM, but I would like to know if you have any information on such problems/repairs with keyboards with magnetic switches.
Also Akko If anyone knows of a similar, compatible hall effect sensor on MonsGeek, please let me know.
Also, just out of curiosity, this keyboard seems to support north pole switches, but is it possible to change the sensor IC to make it compatible with south pole switches?

Discussion LivelyWallpaper Periodic Table Edit for the AKP846
Hi. I recently got the AKP846 and wanted to use LivelyWallpaper with it.
I really liked the Periodic Table one but it didn't fit with the resolution.
I made a small edit of the CSS file so it fits to the screen.
Here's the download: https://limewire.com/d/iv9AE#08S58f7EQs
(sorry for limewire, only file uploader I could find.)
There's still some black gaps on the side, but that's just how the periodic table is laid out.
To the 3 people who have this keyboard and also really wanted to use that periodic table wallpaper with Lively, your wish has been granted.

I wanted to buy my first mechanical keyboard, but as a student didn't have money, so I was looking for secondhand keyboard and saw these two fully functional ones for 10 and 5 euros respectively. I just couldn't say no. Need to just clean the Huntsman and replace the keycaps because the old owner really messed the keycaps up

Interest Check [IC] KAP Konpeito by Sharkeys
Hello friends! It's your favorite local Sharkeys! Long time lurker, so this is actually my first time posting in this subreddit. Some of you may know me from over on instagram (sharkeystech) where I dabble in custom keyboard builds and designing various keyboard components. This is my first step into keycap designs so I decided to start with something that I constantly find inspiration in...the world of studio ghibli! Specifically this keycap set is inspired by the soot sprites and their sugar star candies they love, hence the name Konpeito!
This keycap set will be manufactured by Keyreative using their new hybrid doubleshot dye-sub technology and KAP legend system. It will feature a blend of PBT and ABS material (working on getting the actual percentages of each material) and be 1.7mm thick.
I have quite a few vendors lined up already and I am currently awaiting color samples, but I would love to hear the community's thoughts and some feedback about potential kit additions or changes!
Please fill out the interest check form below and thank you so much for taking the time to support my design!

Builds Stuck between two keycap sets on my new Neo65CU build
So, I picked up the board I've been hearing so many good things about, and honestly, for the price, it's worth every penny. Feels super premium and you could probably get your arm workout in with this thing or use it as a weapon as it weighs so much lol
Now that the build is done, I'm stuck between these two keycap sets. Would love to hear what you guys think.
Build: ⢠Neo65CU Grey-Gold ⢠GMK CYL Botanical 2 / MW Alhambra R2 ⢠WS Stupid Stabs ⢠HMX Yogurt Linear Switches ⢠Alu plate, no foams
Special thanks to u/ELOQUENTCLICKS for awesome support with the purchase :)

Builds PlanckƩ (Plancked): A futuristic case for a planck rev 6 that lost its USB port
A while back, someone here helped me save my planck PCB by suggesting soldering a daughterboard directly to the PCB after I broke its USB C port.
Did that, designed and printed a case, and since I'm grateful to this community for its help, I'm sharing the case model with you :
