@ddrfraser1, @dwarflemur, the Windows keys are Pad printed. You could also get the same 95 win logo with a set of EPBT windows keycaps kit or a CRP windows keys kit and those are colored and dyesub.

You can get colored ones here when they are back in stock:

Originative is pretty good about restocking some of their GMK sets.

the amount of work that went into this is crazy. Awesome job!

how much extra space is there for a larger battery than a 1500? I’m gonna get a Yang controller and was eyeing a 5k lipo cell

Thanks a lot :slight_smile:

It could get up to 2500-3000. Here’s a 3000 one someone mounted : https://imgur.com/i4ZdcHV

On their taobao shop they are presenting and offering 2500 ones as you can see in the instalation video from KBDFans

Taobao shop

I chose 1500 because I couldn’t find the big ones @ Europe and these small ones were 2 for 5$ on Aliexpress. (I got 2 HHKB’s Type S, one Novatouched and one lubed topre, both with yang controllers)

These controllers are pretty energy efficient, so you could easily get 1 month with a big 2500-3000 one, but I rarely use my HHKB via BT, it mostly sits on my desk plugged in and as a hub for a Kensington Trackball Expert and a Logitech G305.

That’s beautiful, I’m just considering Aperture housing for my HHKB so helpful to see it clearly and in context. Gorgeous hipros also, where are those from?

What are you using for the white keycaps?

And how did you mod the cable?

Swapped in the white caps from KBDfans’ EC9009 set. Pexon PCs does a realforce mod cable so I ordered that as well as parts from space cables and summit cables and put this bad boy together.

This thread is going to be flooded with shiny Heavy Grail HHKBs in a few months, lol.
