The Lucky65 keyboard from Velocifire boasts an impressive line-up of features at an incredibly affordable pricepoint! There are seven case colours to choose from: five anodized and two electrophoresis coating colours, five types of foam, a tri-mode PCB with included battery, per-key RGB, and a gold-anodized aluminum back weight. There are also five layers of various types of foam, with a mix of IXPE, poron, PET, and EPDM, so you’ll be able to mix and match the foam to your own personal preference. The board also includes pre-lubed Xinmeng V2 plate-mount stabilizers, which have been well-received by reviewers for factory-lubed stabilizers.
Internally, the Lucky65 uses a relatively standard PCB gasket mount system, with flex cuts included in the plate and PCB. PCB options are split between ANSI and ISO support, and both are tri-mode, supporting wired, 2.4ghz, and Bluetooth connections!

Introducing the third board from Neo Studio and QwertyKeys – the Neo80! Seeing as how the 80% layout is bulkier than the typical compact keyboard, the Neo80 was designed with a curved edge and chamfer in addition to the Neo series’ iconic slim side bezels, giving the board a softer appearance. Effortless assembly is core to the Neo series’ identity, but an alternative to the unibody case design had to be considered due to the limitations of the 80% layout – eventually settling on a custom ball-catch structure that fits the board’s slim profile without compromising the design. The Neo80’s layout omits the F13 key to make the board more practical for everyday use, and is available in both WK and WKL configurations!
Extras for Neo80 include spare plates and PCBs, kits containing gaskets or mounting essentials, and more!

- The SALVATION combines the soft and vibrant typing experience of an innovative leaf spring mounting system with a 60% tray case design.
QwertyKeys has come a long way in a relatively short time – back in 2022, they released their first board, the QK65, officially launching the brand, and have continued to make customizable mechanical keyboards accessible to more and more people, regardless of budget. Now, almost two years later, they’re introducing a new generation of their milestone project – the QK65v2!
While the QK65v2’s iterated design has seen appreciation, QwertyKeys understands the additional external features offered in the v2 may not appeal to everyone, minimalists especially. QwertyKeys has made sure that these voices are heard, and thus have decided to introduce a classic version of the QK65v2 for those who prefer simplicity. By omitting the mini screen and the LED strip, the QK65v2 Classic aligns more closely with the original QK65’s design language. We hope this variant can meet the taste of those who prefer a cleaner look in their peripherals. Internally, the board has seen some revisions, with both top and gasket mounting supported for the build process, and featuring the positively received magnetic PCB connectors, obviating the need for internal cable management. Additionally, a clip-in mechanism has been incorporated in the case design, allowing the QK65v2 to be disassembled in a matter of seconds simply by popping off its feet and releasing the clips. And finally, the addition of a Hall Effect PCB and accompanying Neo Lavender HE switches! Hall effect switches detect the strength and direction of a magnetic field generated by a permanent magnet or electromagnet, allowing for a digital (on/off) or analog (continuous) signal.
Extras for the QK65v2 Classic include spare plates and PCBs, badges, daughterboards, and more!

Following the success of the Neo65, the Neo70 is being designed as a long term project with multiple rounds to address FOMO and better serve interested customers! Derived from the Neo65’s, but designed with a FRL TKL layout, the Neo70’s unibody case features an elegant minimalism, with an inward-sloping edge on the board’s side, and a compartmentalized case design that separates the function keys and the alphas, minimizing any potential hollow sounds and allowing for easy access and adjustment.

You asked for it and QwertyKeys has delivered! The QK100 has everything you need, including an F-row, numpad, and even an LCD screen complete with fifteen bezel options, making it the ideal office workhorse and a perfect gift for friends and family who crave the familiarity of a full-sized board.

There are ten weights in a variety of finishes to pick from, including the all-new colour-shifting “Synth” finish, as well as the popular “Ice Crystal” finish – returning from the QK80 GB! Being that the summer is coming up, a camping theme was chosen this time around – with the external weights featuring a mountain peak-shaped indent, and the internal weight etched with a calm tenting scene.
Extras for the QK100 include spare plates of all five materials, PCBs, daughterboards, as well as three bezels for the board’s screen in five different finishes!

The Model OLED keyboard by Play Keyboard is heavily inspired by the IBM Model M, arguably one of the most iconic keyboards to have been produced and is still sought after by vintage keyboard enthusiasts. The Model OLED brings modern trappings to the iconic shape – USB-C connection, QMK firmware with VIA support, a 1.2mm hotswap PCB, and the piece de resistance – the programmable OLED pushbutton doubling as an F13 key in place where the iconic IBM logo is typically located. And, as it is vintage-inspired, the Model OLED also includes a solenoid to let everyone in your office know how cool your keyboard is.
Extra parts for the Model OLED include an extra chromium-plated bottom case and an extra PCB.

Cat65 is the result of a collaboration between Jacky Design and their good friend :3ildcat! Using the cat as the central theme of the board’s animal-inspired design, the case was molded over an extensive design process to create a pleasantly curved board with a refined profile and a shallow angle for comfortable typing, adorned on its underside with a decorative cute cat weight in your choice of mirror PVD steel, and anodized or matte coated aluminum!

In response to popular demand, MM Studio has designed their own take on the Happy Hacker – the MM-HHKB! While the Class60 supported an HHKB layout, its internal structure was not compatible with the parts from official HHKBs, something the MM-HHKB rectifies with full compatibility with the HHKB Pro3 and Pro2, as well as YANG’s BLE mod. This level of compatibility is achieved through the customizable weight, available in two styles and your choice of solid brass or Bluetooth-friendly PC!

The Mercury65 keyboard has been crafted over the past year through a love for space. The back engraving is one of the defining factors of the Mercury65: each bottom piece has to be machined and anodized perfectly to achieve the two toned effect you see on the engraving.

Numerous optional parts are available for the Mercury65! Four badge colours, four plate options, and an extra solderable PCB or a hotswap PCB.

Manufacturer’s Quality Disclaimer
– The bottom of the Aluminum Wrist Rest is defined as a B-level surface because the bottom side is the hanger side during the anodized process. Per the QC standard for B-level cover, blemishes under 1cm are approved on the surfaces and edges. Three or fewer fine trachoma, dust spots, etc. with a diameter under 0.5mm are within our quality acceptance. Color uniformity is a normal phenomenon around the process hole, but it is guaranteed that it will not be visible after installation.
– Warranty is only applicable for the original customer who purchased the board on IRISLab’s website or from a participating vendor, with proof of purchase such as order number and confirmation email.
– The warranty covers the PCB for one year of use or if dead on arrival without any modification.
– Broken parts due to any human error will void your warranty, including but not limited to: mill-maxing PCB, tape-modding PCB, hotswap sockets that are pushed out of the PCB solder pads, not following the steps to flash PCB causing a non-functional/defective PCB.

TPS40 is the newest 40% board from Deadline Studio – featuring an asymmetrical bezel design, a knob, and external bluetooth switching. The board uses both tray and gasket mounting to support its internals, and features large leaf spring and poron foam at the bottom of the case to create a soft and bouncy typing feel.
Extras for the TPS40 include spare dual-mode hotswap PCBs, plates in both PVD brass and polycarb, and case and switch foam – all of which support both the Daisy (staggered) and Planck (ortho) layouts! Additionally, an alternate carbon fibre spring is available for purchase as a softer alternative to the rigid titanium spring that comes stock on the board.

MM Studios are debuting their newest creation: the Class 80, a TKL board inspired by the retro aesthetic and iconic white-and-red case of the Famicom. Inheriting the wide bezel design of its predecessor – the Class 65 – the Class 80 has a vintage chunkiness that gives it an air of authenticity, furthered by the distinctive controller-shaped weight on the bottom of the board and the included buzzer and solenoid to give you that old-school sound. Class 80 is available in three colourways; an aluminum case in E-white or E-red, or anodized black. Furthermore, both solder and hotswap PCBs are available, with a hotswap BLE PCB option for those who prefer a wireless board.
Extras for Class 80 include a wide variety of full and half-plates, PCBs, indicator lights, a signature keycap set, spare solenoids and buzzers, and more!
Brought to you by Wind Studio, WIND X98 is an aluminum gasket-mounted keyboard with a modified 1800 layout, based on the WIND X (65% + Numpad) with added function keys. Following the minimalist style of the WIND X, the board features a slender brass weight on the back and a brass accent above the arrow keys on top, as well as a multicoloured PVD ‘X’ logo on the front between the Escape key and the F-row to catch the eye.
WIND X98 has a number of extras available for separate purchase, including extra PCBs, plates, weights, accent pieces, foam kits, and much more!
Originally conceived back in 2021, before the foundation of Deadline Studio, the New Retro #66 is designed to mix the modern with the retro. The board features a “layer-up” structure that encases its opaque aluminum case in a translucent polycarb shell, further decorated by spliced parts, exposed screws, and aesthetically-pleasing brackets and blocks, giving it its signature cobbled-together, almost prototypical appearance.
Extras for New Retro #66 include PCBs, plates, rods, brackets, knobs, and blocks!

Designed by streamline, the saevus Cor was created following a 6-month plunge into the foam rabbit hole; they felt that, while the foamed boards sounded great, the uniformity between their sound detracted from the personality of each. Thus, the saevus Cor was created: a plateless 65% XT keyboard that aims to produce a unique sound without the need for case foam. Beyond the gentle half-heart-shaped slopes of the case’s profile, considerations for comfort are present within the saevus Cor‘s design, as it features a low 6.5° typing angle and a cherry lip on the case front – providing a more comfortable typing experience when used without a wrist rest.
Extras for saevus Cor include PCBs, plates, and badges in a variety of materials!

LiNK65 is a 65% board packed with innovation and creative design, representing a push forward as well as a return to Owlab’s roots. Spurred by the laborious repetition of assembly and dismantling countless prototypes, Owlab was made to ask a simple question:
“How can we simplify the build process?”
The answer comes in the LiNK65’s elegant screwless case design, inspired by the mortise and tenon joint structure that has been used in the construction of wooden structures for over 7000 years. The top case is made from anodized or electrophoresed aluminum and finished using an anti-fingerprint technique, whereas the bottom is made from sandblasted and PVD-coated stainless steel, enhancing the sound profile of the board by reducing resonance with its high material density. The bottom case also includes a PVD-coated trunk that serves as the lynchpin to the board, providing an eye-catching glossy component to the bottom’s facade while keeping the pieces snugly in place, but ready to disassemble at a moment’s notice. Both the top and bottom case are available in a variety of colours, with a total of 60 combinations!
Internally, the LiNK65 utilizes a mounting system inherited from Owlab’s Spring board and tweaked with a number of improvements – some notable examples are a reduction in the size of the leaf spring chamber to reduce echo and obviate the need for plate foam, and the addition of the ability to install rings and nibs directly to the plate, further easing assembly. Although improvements have been made to create a distinct sound profile without the need for foam, Owlab’s signature three-piece foam kit is nonetheless included, and features a new plate foam piece that seals the chamber between the plate and PCB, owing to an improved Poron blend with a higher foaming ratio. Due to the simplicity and ease of assembly, we encourage you to try multiple different foam configurations to find what works best for you!
As is typical for Owlab’s projects, plates are available in a total of four materials (Aluminum, FR4, Polycarb, and POM). In keeping with the theme of simple assembly, the vertical beams have been removed from the space on the plate reserved for larger modifier keys, opening up access to the stabilizers, and allowing them to be adjusted or even removed more easily. Finally, both solderable and hotswappable PCBs are available for purchase, and both feature a brand-new collapsible “slip” design inspired by bamboo slips, a popular form of stationary from the era before the invention of paper.
