I would love to have a crockery keyboard, a pity that I live in Brazil and with the current situation, and taxes that keep rising the next day, a keyboard would come out with a very salty price, mainly due to the high dollar in my country, but like every Brazilian he is stubborn, and he never gives up and in his own way I will do something as cool! thanks for the video, u gave me some ideas!
cara, eu to costruindo o meu com oque eu sei, no momento to fazendo um corne, dps vou fazer um keyball ou um iris, parece complicado mas da pra fazer sem a pcb
Yes. this was done before I was made aware of these 301230 batteries. They indeed fit perfectly and probably have higher capacity than these LIR2032 too!
Well done on your build. What kinds of latency are you getting? When I checked the latency for BT5.0 I thought it was too much and would hold the experience back. Would be interesting to know if you have done any end to end latency testing.... Still impressive though! Well done!
Creo que la configuración es casi la misma a excepción de la distribución de las teclas, es cuestión de comparar el teclado inglés con el español y percatarse que tienen la misma cantidad. Simplemente te compras el Corne split sin las keycaps para usar un set de estas en español, el resto supongo que es cuestión de configurar el teclado en español desde la computadora.
@@BlueMicroWirelessKeyboards Will you be selling the little switch pcb's that you use to shut off the led battery drain as well? Those appear to be custom.
This is the corne keyboard that's available on multiple stores. All you need for the conversion are the controllers, battery and switch. I won't have this board available on my store. I do have the BlueMicro840 available. If they are out of stock, I will be building some more over the weekend. I have all the materials to make 50 or so without me ordering more parts.
Any idea on the latency? From what I saw in the video, the typing demo was overlaid and played early, so the frames don't match (play the video at 0.25x, play from 0:29 and pause at 0:31. The Y already is registered but his fingers are no where close to the key).
This is brilliant, however one thing that occurred to me is an issue with modifiers. I'm assuming anything you do with QMK and function layers only work on each side. Since they both connect via bluetooth to the pc, whatever is sent from each side is isolated and could theoretically have lag issues with modifiers like shift and ctrl. Is this correct? With a keyboard like this having a layer function on the right side and using layered keys on the right side is crucial to having enough inputs.
This is exactly what I have been researching to do to a Lily58 pro, do the two half talk to each other or does each side bluetooth to the computer as its own device?
I don't really recommend to use these coin cell batteries as they can't supply current for very long. I usually recommend the larger 301230 lipo batteries that fit under the controller, between the sockets.
The schematics and gerbers of the controllers are in my repo: github.com/jpconstantineau/NRF52-Board For the Corne, they are available from the original designer.
I'm new to building custom keyboards. From reading the other comments, it appears as though I can take any corne keyboard and add these pcbs that are available on OPs store for $25 each. How would I program the keyboard then? I'm assuming I can use QMK to program this? @BlueMicro Wireless Keyboards
QMK isn't recommended for nRF52840 chips. There are forks out there that are old and QMK won't ever support it because licensing of the SDK isn't compatible with QMK.
If i were to design a whole new pcb for a input device like a pro micro, do you think it could be the size of one? Ive started making a project atm and i was thinking if i were to add a rechargeable lithium drone battery instead of coin cells it could be pretty cool, im not sure though.
Not really. The sum of all components do add up very quickly and unfortunately, the two BLE controllers make a good proportion of it. Even wired with pro micros, the Corne keyboard with switches and keycaps would be more than 100$
Soldering small lipo batteries underneath the controller is much better (and smaller). Large 3000mAh batteries would make these RGB LEDs last much longer...
Oh. It's a paypal form and some people have problems with it; especially on phones and if launching other tabs is a problem.. If you want to buy something I can send you a paypal invoice with the same pricing as the store.
I would have to check if I still have one for sale but the other places would have them too. For the bluemicros, you can go to store.jpconstantineau.com
yes, I have done so. With the other type of battery (a small lipo that fits under the sockets) it's possible to have it at the same location without any special adapters.

no cable connecting the boards, no cable to the PC.
amazing.

@@jolarful puedes usar la ñ como en cualquier otro teclado en ingles pones distribucion US-Internacional y pones la ñ con ALT+N
yo uso mac y teclado gringo la ñ la hago apretando option + n = , y luego apreto la n, lo mismo para las tildes option + e = ´, luego apreto la vocal
us international --> "~" + N = Ñ
Nice one!
Love this , where can I get the 840s?
Once all testing is done, I'll be selling them on my store at store.jpconstantineau.com I have sent some to a few people for testing as well.

It's not QMK - It's using my firmware: BlueMicro_BLE: github.com/jpconstantineau/BlueMicro_BLE

hey bro, where did you get the keycaps?
This is exactly what I have been researching to do to a Lily58 pro, do the two half talk to each other or does each side bluetooth to the computer as its own device?
Nice job! Which sockets are you using, and where did you get them?
These are standard "tall" sockets from LCSC: lcsc.com/product-detail/Pin-Header-Female-Header_BOOMELE-Boom-Precision-Elec-C9811_C9811.html
man, could you make the pcb available in proteus pfv? I would really like it, or let me know where I can get these and other pcbs
Are there any prebuilts available? I’ve been searching for a split BT keyboard for a while but always end up in the DIY zone
Where can I get hold of the board for the coin cell battery? Also is there a build guide anywhere for this style of wireless coin battery corne
I don't really recommend to use these coin cell batteries as they can't supply current for very long. I usually recommend the larger 301230 lipo batteries that fit under the controller, between the sockets.

I have been using LiPo cells as they are much better.
@@BlueMicroWirelessKeyboards oh okay nice
Is there a keyboard like this that is under $100?
Not really. The sum of all components do add up very quickly and unfortunately, the two BLE controllers make a good proportion of it. Even wired with pro micros, the Corne keyboard with switches and keycaps would be more than 100$
How can I buy one of these keyboards? Or maybe a kit?
Will this still work wired with the trs ( the headphone slot ) and bluemicro also is it possible to get a usb c version of this 😅.
No need for TRRS cables. Also, the newest is all USB-C...
Hey! Nice build you have there. Why don't you solder two 3000 mAh batteries to them instead of using coin batteries?
Soldering small lipo batteries underneath the controller is much better (and smaller). Large 3000mAh batteries would make these RGB LEDs last much longer...
Great job! Unfortunately store/form doesn’t work( Utterly thirsty in buying one)
Oh. It's a paypal form and some people have problems with it; especially on phones and if launching other tabs is a problem.. If you want to buy something I can send you a paypal invoice with the same pricing as the store.
will there be 104-key version of this?
yep, i need the numpad and mouse' right click button
check out the lilly58, it has numbers
Also check out the layers. You can make those buttons
Man, still good job but... Keys are registered already before you even touch them. I guess too much latency made you edit the video?
Hi, I‘m very interested to build my own corn keyboard like this. Where can buy the components.
I would have to check if I still have one for sale but the other places would have them too. For the bluemicros, you can go to store.jpconstantineau.com
What are those batteries ? Rechargeable 2032 ?
Yes but I don't recommend them. Too low a capacity for keyboard, especially with those RGB LEDs.
Any experience with Nice!nano?
Yep. Same idea here. Nicell did a great job at making it readily available.
nice can you add an oled screen on top of it ?
yes, I have done so. With the other type of battery (a small lipo that fits under the sockets) it's possible to have it at the same location without any special adapters.
@@BlueMicroWirelessKeyboards what is the battery life with and without the rgb ligts after changing to lipo?
Where can i buy this assembled?
ya can’t lol
Assembled - not really. Soldering isnt too difficult...
Is QMK fully compatible with the BlueMicro?
Some people have successfully run QMK on the nrf52 chips. I haven't. There is a fork of QMK available.
can I use the blue micros for lily58 keyboard?
