Sofle RGB V3 Hotswap Split Ergo 50% Keyboard Kit

Designed by Dane Evans based on the original Sofle Keyboard by Josef Adamcik (GitHub repository). Build guide here (does not mention the power switches that are mounted on the top of the PCB on each side).

Modified by 42. Keebs with larger pinky stagger (same as on Sofle V2), power switches and a battery headers.

Please note, be careful when soldering the RGB LED modules. Due to the way the PCBs were manufactured (vias not covered with solder mask), a solder bridge could form from one of the RGB LED pads to a via, causing a short on a data line. If that happens, adding flux helps greatly in removing the solder bridge.

Build your very own split custom keyboard from scratch!

  • Split 12×4 + 10 (50%-ish) ortho/ergo layout
  • Uses Kailh hotswap sockets for Cherry MX-compatible switches
  • Supports 2x EC11 rotary encoders, one in each half
  • Optional OLED screens
  • Quite easy to build – based on Pro Micro controllers. Uses SMD diodes though.
  • Includes FR4 switch plates
  • Tinned lead-free finish, black solder mask

Kit includes:

  • 2x main PCBs
  • 2x FR4 switch plates
  • 2x 2/3 mm clear acrylic bottom plates (your choice)
  • 60x SMD diodes
  • 2x TRRS sockets
  • 2x SMD power switches
  • 2x reset switches
  • 58x Kailh MX hotswap sockets
  • Brass standoffs and screws
  • 2x acrylic covers

Parts required to finish build not included in the kit:

  • 2x nice!nanos / Froods / Pro Micros / Elite-Cs or compatible controllers
  • 58x Cherry MX-compatible switches

Optional add-ons available but not included in kit:

  • 2x OLED screens
  • 2x EC11 rotary encoders
  • 2x Encoder knobs
  • 12-72x SK6812 MINI (3535) RGB LED modules (2x indicators, 12x underglow, 58x backlight)
  • TRRS cable
  • Acrylic tenting kit (coming soon)

Please note, controller and RGB modules displayed in the product photo are not included, but they’re available as add-ons.
