Ergonomic, split and other weird keyboards

Rules

Keep it ergo

Posts must be of/about keyboards that have a clear delineation between the left and right halves of the keyboard, column stagger, or both. This includes one-handed (one half doesn't exist, what clearer delineation is that!?)

i.e. no regular non-split¹ row-stagger and no non-split¹ ortholinear²

¹ split meaning a separation of the halves, whether fixed in place or entirely separate, both are fine.
² ortholinear meaning keys layed out in a grid

Started having some pain after days of work + evenings of gaming, so I decided to get an ergonomic keyboard.

  • Board: Corne Choc wireless from Typeractive
  • Switches: Ambients Silent Choc Switches 20 g linear Nocturnal from lowprokb
  • Keycaps: MBK Low Profile PBT from lowprokb
  • Controllers: Supermini NRF52840 from Aliexpress
  • Tenting: Magsafe metal rings and phone holders from Aliexpress
  • Solar panels: Ixolar panels that are nearly the exact same size as the keyboard controllers from Digikey
  • Solar harverters: Solar harvester for Li-ion batteries on Tindie

It tents:

It sticks together:

All thanks to Magsafe rings and small magnets on the bottom:

And if I ever want to Switch up the color scheme:

Ooooh, i really like the magsafe idea. Seems like a more versatile version of the tenting puck.
