Coming as an outstanding keyboard DIY kit, the Mini Cat 64 kit from EPOMAKER includes a variety of features that appeals to gamers and DIYers. The 60% layout remains all the essential keys while saving space for the mouse on your desktop, and hot-swappable sockets are convenient for changing both 3 and 5-pin switches at will without having trouble in soldering.
Cutiest Ever Cat-Shape Design Style
It is well-known that cats are somehow keyboard-fetish: they all like to step or sleep on the keyboards when people are working! Inspired by Bongo Cat hitting bongos on the website (Bongo.cat), indie designers make this cutest ever case design. No doubt, the Mini Cat 64 will definitely be the most eye-catching product on your desk setup!
QMK/VIA Programmable
As a response to the community, the Mini Cat 64 kit is programmable by VIA. For users who are not used to the compact layout, remapping the keys by VIA without reflashing the firmware is a nice solution. You can save the changes on board, and be worry-free about losing your saved memory while unplugging and replugging the keyboard. Being compatible with VIA, there's a great potential of being programmed and modded in the Mini Cat 64 for you to discover.
Refinedly Tuned Stabilizers
The stabilizers that come with this DIY kit are refinedly tuned to prevent rattling on large keys like spacebars and modifiers. Due to this effort, the Mini Cat 64 DIY mechanical keyboard kit offers a premium stable typing experience as well as offering another option for DIY enthusiasts to unlock more fun of changing stabilizers. From assembly to program, build your exclusive mechanical keyboard with the Epomaker Mini Cat 64 DIY kit!
Stacked Acrylic Case with Amazing RGB Backlights
Acrylic based keyboards are friendly to typists as they can be much brighter with backlights. The Mini Cat 64 kit can pull up this experience to the full by applying acrylic pieces stacked to a complete case and installing LEDs and RGB modules on the PCB. The backlight can shine not only through the sockets but also from the sides of the keyboard, creating a visible environment even under dark conditions.
Type-C Connection & Compatible with Windows/Mac
Equipped with the type-C interface, the Mini Cat 64 kit holds a fast and stable connection. Moreover, the DIY kit is compatible with OS on both Windows and Mac. It surely meets the needs of each user to work efficiently or switch between gaming and working status.
