<p>The Impulse RGB gaming keyboard showcases hot-swappable switches, delectable full RGB lighting, and special shine-through pudding keycaps. </p>
<p>Available in BOX Brown (Tactile) and BOX White (Clicky)</p>
<h4><strong>hot-swap switch sockets</strong></h4>
<p><strong></strong>The Impulse now features hot-swap sockets! Change mechanical switches with no soldering required! Make the ultimate customized layout with different switches for individual keys, or simply explore the extensive world of mechanical switch variants with the Hexgears Impulse!</p>
<p>Check out our <strong><a href="https://kono.store/collections/switches" title="Switch Collection - Kono Store" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Switch Collection</a></strong> for various styles of switches to explore and hot-swap! Compatible with any MX-compatible plate-mount switches.</p>
<h4><strong>durable pbt keycaps</strong></h4>
<p>PBT is a specialty engineering plastic that resists shine and finger grease. This is far better than cheaper painted ABS plastic used by major brands. The Impulse RGB uses PBT for their doubleshot injection molded keycaps — meaning that the main letters won’t ever wear off.</p>
<h4><strong>mind-blowing rgb backlighting and rgb ring lighting</strong></h4>
<p>The Impulse offers one of the best RGB keyboard implementations on the market. No software is required, which ensures compatibility with various operating systems. Once plugged in, the RGB ring lighting and per-key RGB backlighting is remarkably smooth — and translucent pudding keycaps showcase it in a way that other keyboards can only dream of. Numerous interactive, static, and RGB backlighting modes / adjustments allow you to select an experience that matches your battlestation.</p>
<h4><strong></strong></h4>
<h4><strong>mechanical kailh box switches</strong></h4>
<p>Kailh Box switches are rated for 80 million presses — significantly above the industry standard. They come equipped with drainage ports and self-cleaning assemblies to ensure that they can keep up with the rest of the keyboard. Box switches also feel excellent, as they’re less wobbly and noticeably smoother than standard models. Tactile Box switches result in quiet mechanical keyboards when compared with competing designs, but the clicky versions go all out.</p>
<p>Clicky Box switches use a revolutionary click mechanism, the click bar, to create their signature noise. Click bars provide a cleaner click than standard Cherry MX-style mechanisms, which tend to rattle. They also have a nicer tactile response — see <a href="https://input.club/the-comparative-guide-to-mechanical-switches/" title="comparative switch guide" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">this guide to learn more</a>.</p>
<h4><strong>customization options</strong></h4>
<p>The Impulse is designed to be a plug and play device. Its feature set offers exactly what you need to get up and running fast. 2-stage angle adjustment feet match your preferences. In addition, basic onboard functions like macros and Windows key locking enhance your experience.</p>

Designed in Japan by Tokyo Keyboard, the Tokyo60 is a compact HHKB-style board with a sleek, seamless design. This Season 4 version features two new case colors, the return of the black-on-gray keycap set from Season 2 (and the coral Fn key from Season 3), as well as a USB-C PCBA. Constructed with two pieces of 6000-series aluminum, the case is machined to have a 5-degree angle. This angle, combined with the Cherry-profile keycaps, is optimized for an ergonomic feel. Built into the aluminum case, the integrated plate adds even more stability. Thanks to the hot-swap sockets on the PCBA, you can swap in new switches in minutes without any soldering—so feel free to try a new feel whenever you want. With a fully programmable layout and RGB lighting, the board can be customized any way you like. For more on the Happy Hacking Keyboard style, check out this interview with the creator.

<p><strong>The Gemini Dawn mechanical keyboard pairs warp speed input with super-bright RGB LEDs and advanced programming features — it's the ultimate gaming peripheral.</strong> A machined all-metal case, custom PBT doubleshot keycaps, and hot-swappable switch sockets set the Gemini Dawn light years ahead of lesser offerings.</p>
<h3><strong>twin styles</strong></h3>
<p>Match your desk, rig, and peripherals with a Gemini Dawn. <strong>You can also investigate the <a href="https://kono.store/products/gemini-dusk" target="_blank">Gemini Dusk</a>, its cryptic shadow-colored twin.</strong> Both have keys that shine like suns in more than 16 million colors.</p>
<h3><strong>durable pbt keycaps</strong></h3>
<p><strong>The Gemini Dawn's doubleshot PBT-plastic keycaps are massively better than the cheap ABS-plastic caps used in big-name keyboards.</strong> ABS keycaps get shiny, discolor, and often have painted legends (letters) that wear off quickly. Our PBT keycaps resist shine, shrug off discoloration, and maintain a comfortable texture. Their two-part manufacturing method means that letters are virtually impossible to wear off — each one goes all the way through its keycap.</p>
<p><strong>A never-before-seen Cherry profile PBT doubleshot keycap set, with shine-through legends and 1.5mm thick walls, has been sourced for the Gemini Dawn.</strong> This provides a substantial upgrade over the keycaps originally advertised with the keyboard. The set will likely appear on future projects as well.</p>
<h3><strong>premium features</strong></h3>
<p><strong>Comfort and style complement Gemini Dawn's performance.</strong> Dual USB-C ports provide future-proofing and effective cable management options. Flip out feet (an irritating relic from the 80s) are nixed in favor of a magnetic angle adjustment bar. Custom-made LEDs pump out extra light. All of those features, and more, are amplified by unmatched control over your gaming experience.</p>
<h3><strong>open source advantage</strong></h3>
<p>Hexgears partnered with Input Club, a group of keyboard enthusiasts, to make their vision of keyboard precision widely accessible. <strong>Optimized Open Source firmware and a powerful microcontroller translate your finger movements into onscreen action.</strong></p>
<h3><strong>hot-swap sockets</strong></h3>
<p><strong>Customization doesn't stop at the firmware level — you can change switches at will with the Gemini Dawn's hot-swap sockets.</strong><span> Try different mechanical switches easily and quickly; create the perfect switch layout based on your preferences</span><span>.</span><span> </span><strong>No soldering necessary.</strong><span> </span><span>That means you can have linear switches, tactile switches, and clicky switches in the same keyboard (if that's your thing).</span></p>

Hexgears Gemini Dusk — Hot-Swap TKL Mechanical Keyboard

The Drop CTRL High-Profile is just like the original CTRL, but now it  comes with a tall CNC-aluminum case that covers the switches. Machined  at a 6-degree angle, the case is ergonomically crafted for a natural  feel—and it’s quite a bit heavier than before. Thanks to the Kaihua  switch sockets, the keyboard allows you to swap switches whenever you  want with no soldering required. It’s also fully programmable via QMK,  meaning you can assign macros or custom keybinds to every key. With dual  USB-C connectors, the CTRL High-Profile is outfitted with the latest  connections. What’s more, it has customizable RGB backlighting and  underlighting, so you can set it to a single color or light it up with a  rainbow wave.

Drop CTRL High-Profile Barebones Keyboard

Space Gray

The Drop CTRL High-Profile is just like the original CTRL, with one looming difference: it features a tall aluminum case that covers the switches. Now, in this special barebones kit, that case comes in a rich dark purple color. Machined at a 6-degree angle, it’s ergonomically crafted for a natural feel—and it’s quite a bit heavier than before. Thanks to the Kailh Kaihua switch sockets, the keyboard allows you to swap switches whenever you want, with no soldering required. It’s also fully programmable via QMK, meaning you can assign macros or custom keybinds to every key. With dual  USB-C connectors, the CTRL High-Profile is outfitted with the latest  connections. What’s more, it has customizable RGB backlighting and underlighting, so you can set it to a single color or light it up with a rainbow wave.

Drop CTRL High-Profile Dark Purple Barebones Keyboard

Default Title

Our largest keyboard to date, the feature-loaded SHIFT does full-size right. Now, it’s back in a barebones package that gives you everything but the keycaps and switches. Constructed in a Compact 1800 layout, the SHIFT is still significantly shorter than a traditional full-size keyboard, which frees up desk space for other gear. And though the numpad and arrows are much closer, they’re still broken out, so they’re easy to find without looking down. Just like the CTRL and ALT, the SHIFT features a sleek aluminum case, customizable RGB backlighting, a fully programmable layout, and hot-swappable switch sockets. That means you can pop in new switches whenever you want without any soldering.

Drop SHIFT Barebones Mechanical Keyboard

The Drop ALT mechanical keyboard is just like the CTRL, but with 67 keys instead of 87. Absent of function keys, it wastes no space—but it still has a full set of arrows and numerals. Constructed with a solid aluminum frame with a built-in switch plate, the ALT is rock solid. And thanks to the Kaihua switch sockets, it allows you to swap switches whenever you want with no soldering required. It’s also fully programmable via QMK, meaning you can assign macros or custom keybinds to every key. With dual USB-C connectors, the ALT is outfitted with the fastest available connections. What’s more, it has customizable RGB backlighting and underlighting. Set it to a single color or light it up with a rainbow wave pattern.
