Mechanisches DIY-Tastatur-Kit im Alice-Stil
Die Hände auf jede Seite einer geteilten Tastatur zu legen, ist ein ergonomischer Zug, und jetzt machen wir es! Um ein außergewöhnliches DIY-Tastatur-Kit zu sein, nimmt Epomaker Alice das "arisu"-Layout an, das sich leicht vom traditionellen Alice-Layout unterscheidet. Es ist auf der Grundlage einer 65% Tastatur geteilt, die aus dem ursprünglichen Alice-Layout entwickelt wurde, um die Nachfrage nach Pfeiltasten und einigen Funktionstasten auf einer Seite zu erfüllen.
Dichtung montieren & Schallabsorption Baumwolle
Dichtungsmontierte Tastaturen sind dafür bekannt, dass sie ein gedämpftes Schreibgefühl vermitteln, da die Platte nicht in direktem Kontakt mit dem Gehäuse steht. Im Vergleich zu anderen Befestigungssystemen kann eine mit Dichtungen montierte Tastatur, insbesondere mit einer PC-Platte, ein rückprallendes Tippgefühl vermitteln, da die Dichtungen den Stoß bei jedem Tastenanschlag abfedern. Was den Klang betrifft, so verwenden wir die schallabsorbierende Baumwolle zwischen der Platte und der Leiterplatte, so dass sich die Tastatur weich anhört und anfühlt
VIA/QMK Programmierbar
Epomaker Alice DIY Kit ist programmierbar durch VIA/QMK. Für Benutzer, die nicht an das Alice-Split-Layout gewöhnt sind, gibt es nichts Bequemeres, als die Tasten von VIA neu zu belegen, ohne die eigene Firmware neu zu flashen. Die Änderungen können auf dem Board gespeichert werden, so dass man sich keine Sorgen machen muss, dass der gespeicherte Speicher beim Abziehen und Wiedereinstecken der Tastatur verloren geht. Durch die Kompatibilität mit QMK bietet die Epomaker Alice ein großes Potenzial an Programmier- und Modifikationsmöglichkeiten, das es zu entdecken gilt.
3-Pin & 5-Pin Hot-Swappable PCB
Bei einer DIY-Tastatur sind die Hot-Swap-Sockel auf der Platine praktisch, um mechanische Schalter nach Belieben auszutauschen, ohne dass Sie Schwierigkeiten beim Löten haben. Da die Tastatur sowohl 3- als auch 5-polig Hot-Swap-fähig ist, können Sie die allgemeinen 3-poligen und 5-poligen Schalter nach Belieben installieren oder austauschen. Das Epomaker Alice DIY-Kit enthält in der Tat eine Vielzahl von Funktionen, die für Gamer und DIY-Enthusiasten interessant sind. Eine Alice-Tastatur selbst zu gestalten, klingt einfach gut!
Sorgfältig abgestimmter Plattenstabilisator
Die Stabilisatoren dieses DIY-Kits wurden sorgfältig abgestimmt, um ein Klappern der großen Tasten wie der Leertaste und der Modifikatoren zu verhindern. Im Vergleich zu den üblichen 2u-Stabilisatoren, die leicht auf dem Markt zu finden sind, bietet das Epomaker Alice DIY-Kit für mechanische Tastaturen ein hochwertiges und stabiles Tipperlebnis und bietet Heimwerkern eine alternative Option, um mehr Spaß beim Wechsel der Stabilisatoren zu haben./p>
Gestapeltes Acrylgehäuse mit erstaunlicher RGB-Hintergrundbeleuchtung
Tastaturen auf Acrylbasis sind cool für Tipper, da sie mit Hintergrundbeleuchtung viel heller sein können. Der Epomaker Alice DIY-Bausatz verwendet ganze Acrylteile, die zu einem kompletten Gehäuse gestapelt werden, und installiert LEDs und RGB-Module auf der Platine. Die Hintergrundbeleuchtung kann nicht nur durch die Buchsen, sondern auch von den Seiten der Tastatur aus leuchten und so auch bei Dunkelheit eine sichtbare Umgebung schaffen..

FAQ
About Group Buys
What is a Group Buy?
A Group Buy (or GB) is a term widely used in the keyboard community, which is super similar to crowdfunding. This is a process in which each customer unites together and uses the collective buying power to purchase goods at a reduced price or at all. Note here that products in group buy must reach a certain amount of products sold before manufacturing can start. After the buy hits its minimum order quantity (MOQ), and the GB period ends, production will begin and the shipment follows.
Group Buys from Epomaker.com are non-cancellable and non-refundable after the Groupbuys go live for 5 days. For example, a GB starts on Monday, then after Friday, we can't cancel and refund the order for you. This is because, after 5 days of the start, we usually have started to sort out the order data for mass production. Changes and cancellations will delay the overall process and ruin everyone's experience, which is the last consequence we want to see.
Each Group Buy has a "closed" date. If the group buy doesn't reach the MOQ by the end of the last day, the production will not be made, and you will receive a full refund without questions.
What are the benefits of joining a Group Buy?
- ✅ You get to purchase and enjoy the product at the earliest.
- ✅ Affordable prices for high-quality products. The price of a GB product is usually the lowest within at least 6 months.
- ✅ Extras and gifts. Depending on different GBs, you might get exclusively discounted add-on products, or free gifts by joining a group buy as an early supporter.
- ✅ Being more than a customer. You might also get to contribute your suggestion and feedback to the final product. Reasonable and realistic suggestions might be accepted and conducted to the final product. To us, there's nothing more valuable than your voice.
- ✅ Secure, authentic, reliable, and transparent process. I bet you have done your search and noticed that there are some shady vendors who disappear after collecting money from GB supporters, regardless of whether the GB meets the MOQ or not. The first crowdfunding campaign started by Epomaker can be traced to 2020. Since then, we have successfully fulfilled at least 6 campaigns for our supporters. Time has examined us for you as well as training us to become better and better.
So I placed an order, now what?
Well, now we wait. Kindly check the timeline and schedule posted on the specific Group Buy page, and you will know how long the wait could be before production and shipment. Keep an eye on the page update and your inbox, you will get an email including a tracking number when your order is shipped. Follow our socials or join our discords, you can also find notifications and help there

Update #2 New Change to Epomaker Alice!
Dear Supporters,
Greetings!
There will be two changes on the Epomaker Alice!
First thing of the first is that the PCB will be installed with south-facing LEDs, as we have received much feedbacks regarding the LEDs orientation. Another change is that underglows will be added to the keyboard, so it will be more shining with the transparent acrylic case.
Some of you may worry that the original shipping time would be delayed because of the improvement. Please don’t be worried about that. We will still arrange shipment for you at the end of October and will keep you updated.
Thank you so much for your feedback. Our community power always motivates us to make better products. We hope we can grow up together with all of you and become better!
Stay tuned!
Sincere,
Epomaker Team

Customer Reviews

Epomaker put the wrong shipping address for my item, it was “returned to sender”. I haven’t heard back from customer service other than that it’ll be destroyed when they receive the “return”
Hello,
Thank you for leaving a review here.
We are so sorry for the issue you met. It could cause an incomplete address if you didn't include 'Apt.#'. before your house or apartment number. But we are working on to improve this process to avoid the issue you met.
In the meanwhile, you can also choose to add shipipng fees to upgrade the shipping for your order. The express shipping will greatly avoid such matters. If you agree to upgrade the shipping method, our support will be happy to help you with it.
Thank you for your understanding.
Kind regards,
Epomaker Team
It went pretty well in the build even though a little fragile but it was described like it so its pretty ok
This is my first keyboard from epomarker and I absolutely love it along with the Alice Adventure keycaps... however there are two really squeaky spots. When I lean my hands just a little on the bottom left corner of the keyboard, it squeaks. It's like styrofoam. The left Shift and Control keys are extremely squeaky...
Other than that. I'm pretty happy with the board. It just sucks that I'm not comfortable with opening the keyboard to see if I can fix the squeaky keys.
Hello,
Thank you for leaving a review here.
We are so sorry that you found the keyboard not satisfying at some points. We will share your opinions with the factory to avoid the issue you met.
If you have met any problems about the keyboard, please feel free to contact us by emailing to support@epomaker.com and attaching your order number. Our support will be happy to help you out.
If you have other thoughts on the product, feel free to leave a review here.
Thank you for your understanding.
Kind regards,
Epomaker Team
Compared to the other reviews, I am in love this with keyboard base. It looks stunning, it was easy to put together, the VIA json file worked great (i received mine later than the other reviewers so it was fixed before I tried to use it). I also do not have any sort of squeaking or noise from the keyboard base. I'm really happy with it, it looks stunning and feels great as my daily keyboard.
