Exclusive E7-V2

Sale price Price $458.00 Regular price Unit price  per 

E7-V2 is based on our first 75% keyboard E7-V1, where we keep the original layout and slim bezel (the principle that we stick to from the beginning). But this time, your latest Exclusive keyboard will be equipped with gasket mounting system, using gasket rubber instead of o-ring.

Product Information

The new design

"7" LED Panel

E7-V2 top case will have the LED panel that you have never seen on any board before: with different sizes of holes in between the arrow cluster and nav cluster, the panel will form the number "7" with a fully customizable RGB effect. With this brand new design, we can say E7-V2 is super clean and has a unique looking.

Typing

The typing angle will be changed to 5° (from 5.5° of E7-V1), with the height of the front side of 18 millimeters, you will get a natural typing feeling without the board being too bulky.

RGB

Besides the top LED panel, we also embed side RGB strip and bottom Exclusive LOGO to light up together (controlled by QMK/VIA).

Case design

  • With the top case being fully covering the bottom case, we can avoid any problems of color inconsistency between the top and bottom case, nor a noticeable gap between them.
  • You can easily grab the keyboard now, thanks to the "bridge" style on the back of the case.
  • The contrast between the bottom case and the LOGO really makes the LOGO stand out, when underglow lights up!

      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!
