KBDFans Taco v2 Plates

The hot-swap PCB allows you to plug in switches without soldering, making it ideal for beginners or those who like to experiment with different switch types. The solder PCB requires you to permanently solder each switch to the board, which provides a more stable connection and is preferred by enthusiasts who have a specific, permanent build in mind.

Yes, the board supports multiple plate materials including Polycarbonate, FR4, Carbon fiber, and Aluminum. You can also utilize the included foam kit to dampen sound and adjust the internal acoustics to your preference.

The keyboard is compatible with Windows, macOS, and Linux. Because it supports QMK and VIA, you can easily remap keys and configure layers regardless of which OS you are using.

The silicone bowl gasket structure provides a softer, more cushioned typing feel compared to a traditional rigid mount. It helps absorb the impact of each keystroke, resulting in a more consistent and comfortable experience during long typing sessions.

The Taco v2 is a barebones-style kit, meaning you will need to provide your own mechanical switches and keycaps to complete the build. It includes the case, PCB, plate, and foam kit, but switches and keycaps are sold separately.

The Taco v2 uses VIA and QMK firmware, which are industry-standard tools for keyboard customization. You can download the VIA software to your computer to remap keys, create macros, and adjust the RGB lighting effects in real-time.
