[GB] Fruitbar R2 Extra PCB

Welcome to Fruitbar Round 2, the long awaited successor to one of the most popular introductions to 40s keyboards!

The group buy is open from 11 February until 3 March (midnight GMT) and is expected to ship in May 2023.

Extra PCB for the Fruitbar R2 kit

A complete board can be built using the PCB and the stacked acrylic case designed and produced by 42. Keebs.

Features:

• Factory-assembled PCB – you only need to solder in switches of your choice, or install Mill Max switch sockets to make the PCB hotswappable
• Red solder mask, white silk screen printing, gold-plated contact finish
• Base kit compatibility! With almost every GMK and ePBT base kit including arrows and the extra 2.25u shift key, Fruitbar is compatible with the majority of your existing keycap sets!
• Full QMK/Vial support – comes pre-flashed with Vial for easy on-the-fly keymap modification using the Vial software
• Optional OLED screen – navigating layers can sometimes be hard on 40s, the OLED screen provides an easy and customizable readout of what layer is currently active
• Supports optional EC11 rotary encoder in the top right position
• RGB underglow can be added easily using a WS2812B LED strip
