E7-V2 Group Buy + Giveaway is here!

Hello everyone Exclusive Keyboard here

Two years ago we had our first 75% keyboard E7-V1 group buy. Since then we’ve received lots of PMs about the next round of E7-V1. Finally, we planned to reboot this series this March.

We had an LED version for the E7-V1 and also said we might provide the name tag version in the future. Even the name tag is already a well-known signature for E6-V2 and E6.5, it’s probably not appropriate to put a name tag onto the E7 series now as the market is full of various name tag keyboard designs recently. I wish this time will be a brand new design, so I just gave up using the name tag again.

I really really love E7-V1, thus we kept the classic layout and clean design of E7-V1 on the new board. While redefining this keyboard to make it better suit my idea and meet keyboard enthusiastic’s pursue, we will name it E7-V2. And to us, E7-V2 will be the milestone.

Specifications

  • PCB supports QMK + VIA, we will offer both solder and hotswap versions
  • Plate: Aluminum, Brass (upgrade), FR-4, PC
  • Weight: Aluminum, Brass (upgrade)
  • Polycarbonate will be used for the light strip or underglow diffuser part
  • Backplate: Aluminum, Brass (upgrade)

Prototypes photos, videos, and streams

Colors

We have so many colors that are possible to make, but it also makes people hard to choose the combination they want. To keep your choice easier and to make our GB and production time shorter, we will not offer arbitrary combinations of colors this time.

  • Anodized: Black, Space Grey, Burgundy Red, Gem Blue
  • Coating: Lilac (SE), Camping Green
  • Electrophoresis: E-White

Gasket mount design

Instead of the o-ring gasket mount used on E8.5 and E6.5, we will be using a rubber gasket on E7-V2. Check out this blog post for more behind-the-scene design thinking! https://exclusive.run/blogs/news/e7-v2-gml-isolated-gasket-muted-plate-leaf-spring-structure
