EPOMAKERCIDOO V65 V2 Wireless/Wired Gaming Keyboard DIY Kit, 65% Hot Swap Gasket Mount, with VIA Programmable Software, South-Facing LED, Aluminum CNC Casing (Dark Green)

The keyboard is excellent. I am new to the keyboard building scene so I was skeptical of every board I was looking at, so I gave this one a try. I bought just the case not the complete build with switches and keycaps. It feels about 4-5 pounds of solid aluminum. The switches were easy going into the board. Everything works as advertised. The RGB options surprised me, and the keyboard functions are easy enough to use. The only complaint I have about the board is indeed the stabilizers. Like I said, I am new to this scene so forgive me if I misspoke about anything said here. The stabilizers are not 'terrible', if you don't care about the sound profile of the keyboard then your expectations will be blown away. The stabilizers are plate mounted, so I took them out fairly easily and then did my first ever lube job using 205g0 lube and made sure to lightly lube the housings and then put generous amounts on the wire stems and 'elbows'. While the lubing did improve the overall sound of the stabilizers, it did not fix the 'ticking' noise that comes whenever I press the right side of my space bar and enter key. My guess is that this must be a 'luck of the draw' kind of scenario whenever these stabs were being produced, the wire must be slightly bent or the housings are not perfectly even with each other, either way I am not 100% sure. Nonetheless I ordered replacements and will swapping them with Durock plate mounted stabs to finish my first build. I am giving this item 5 stars because the keyboard itself is just that good and that the stabilizers gave me a good learning situation for future builds. While I understand people are rating this board based on the stabilizers alone, I feel that it is unfair to justify docking a star based on something that can be easily replaced for just few extra dollars.UPDATE:After installing the new Durock stabs, I noticed that the wires were slightly different, like nano meters difference. This difference resulted in a mushier feel, so I ended up just changing the housings and keeping the original wires and I gotta say I love the result!

I've build everything from budget $50 keyboards to $500. This keyboard which I bought to build a gift keyboard for a friend of mine actually surprised me! The sound profile of the metal case, the polycarbonate plate and the morandi switches I added really created a pleasant sound! It easily sounded three times as expensive as it actually cost. The bezels around the keyboard are pretty thin, that might be good or bad depending on your style. And I kind of like the retro styling to the case. The built in stabilizers weren't great so I suggest replacing them or lubing them yourself. But for the price I can't really complain.

si quieres un teclado custom y aun precio módico este es el indicado la calidad es muy buena creo que la única pega es que si quieres modificarlo los tornillos estos debajo de las gomas, pero igual el teclado trae repuesto.⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Keyboard initially worked alright, though the software it comes with is total garbage and its modes are rather unintuitive.I also notice the ALT and WIN keys are flipped which wasnt a deal breaker, but annoying.However I noticed the USB C cable it came with broke after only a week of use, becoming loose and non-functional. This didnt surprise me, it was a cheap cable so i replaced it with another, higher quality one.What i didnt realize is that something internally was shorting out the cable so it was melting its charging cable. The original cable likely wasnt the issue, but the keyboard itself.I noticed the occasional "ozone" smell of shorting electronics and dismissed it, and then noticed the charging cable was disconnected. I grabbed it and it burned my finger. I looked closer and noticed the keyboard had melted the connector off and even got so hot it changed the color of the metal housing. I very quickly turned the keyboard off and disposed of it.The keyboard was also getting slightly warm to the touch (which is very scary considering this has a sizeable battery inside of it.) which makes me believe something is wrong with the charging circuit in my keyboard.Im incredibly disappointed in this product and that my keyboard became a potential fire hazard. Highly recommending avoiding this product.

great quality, great value for the cost. the aluminum is legit, it's a good weight. definitely recommend getting additional stabilizers and lubing them yourself- the ones included aren't good.EDIT: it's been a month and this has become my runaway favorite keyboard of the ones i've bought pre-built and the ones i've built myself. durock stabilizers, morandi switches, osume winterglow eve keycaps and it has that poppy/thocky sound from review videos.

It's probably one of the better bare-bones kit on Amazon, sounds good, good gasket performance and stabs are decent expect the space bar is a little rattly, but that's the only complaint.

Bought the board to start a new build. Spent plenty of time purchasing things to start the build and now that I have it all together, I've noticed the board doesn't work. The letter Z won't stop flashing and nothing works including the Bluetooth mode. What a waste of time and effort. I do not recommend this board to anybody unless you want a heavy paperweight.

The entirety of the keyboard is of exceptional quality. I love how simple it is to build with, the light pastel green is very soft and it’s for me looks perfect for how I wanted my build to turn out. Great value of features for the price and very pleased with this purchased.

Just add switches and key caps. Creamy and marbley sound profile.

Ein sehr gutes Keyboard, hab meins mit Leobog Greywood V4 Schaltern und den PBT Iceberg Keycaps aufgebaut. Clicky/Creamy Sound ... gefällt mir sehr, auch die Gasket Performance bei dem Keyboard ist sehr gut. Einzig muss man dem Keyboard manuell sagen, dass es am Kabel funktionieren soll (Space + Fn). VIA Funktionalität ist gegeben. Wer sich mit dem ANSI Layout anfreunden kann, erhält ein rundum gutes Keyboard.

The media could not be loaded. I've been using this board for a couple of months now and I'm still so happy with it. I paired it with some Blubererry Swirl switches which are a bit on a heavier side and they make the keyboard sound quite poppy. I love that it's metal as well, which isn't very common for keyboards around that price range. The colour is really beautiful and fits my setup :)

I really like the keyboard overall, but the title on the listing clearly said Bluetooth, 2.4 Wireless and wired (triple mode). I checked with Epomaker and the new V3 keyboard has all of them. What I got instead was the V2 dual mode keyboard. As Bluetooth has too much latency for my needs and I wanted a clean cable free setup I was really looking forward to the 2.4 GHz wireless functionality.Nevertheless the keyboard functions great and sounds amazing.
