chocofi VS cantor-remix

Hello guys! I recently got a chocofi:

I'm having a lot of trouble to set up my chocofi bought from beekeeb.

I am not sure if I expressed myself correctly. Take a look at chocofi keyboard; the microcontroller is not covered by anything. What is my concern here then? I use lead-free solder and I clean the flux with rubbing alcohol.

- [chocofi](https://github.com/pashutk/chocofi) / [fifi](https://github.com/raychengy/fifi\_split\_keeb)

I decided to upgrade from the ferris sweep that I built not too long ago to a wireless chocofi. I did some quick maths and saw that it would be cheaper for me to order the parts myself rather that buying a kit online, and as my parts have been coming I decided to check on the PCB. I used the gerber from https://github.com/pashutk/chocofi when placing my order, and the image on the github page shows a chocofi with a battery (I assume its wireless.) but looking at the gerber file I dont see a space on the board for an on off switch? I am new to wireless builds and have been trying to find resources online but wasnt able to find much at all. Any insights would be appreciated, thanks!

I find the chocofi to be really nice 👍

If someone wants to buy for $20 the PCB and plate form the chocofi, pls dm me.

Not specifically what you're looking for, but https://github.com/nilokr/cantor-remix is a 36 key diode-less open-source board that you might be able to get some concepts from. Keep in mind, if you don't wire a switch, then nothing breaks. You just need enough pins on the controller to handle the number of switches, so you could go a controller with less pins on a smaller board.

Cantor Remix is the 36 key variant, but it's designed for choc switches: https://github.com/nilokr/cantor-remix

If you wanna DIY like I did the Cantor Remix github has a link to the buid guide for the original Cantor that is basically the same thing. The Remix repo will have the gerber.zip that you need to print the PCBs. I went through JLCPCB for my prints and they did a great job.

I added it on a [nilokr/cantor-remix: Cantor keyboard by diepala with minor changes](https://github.com/nilokr/cantor-remix) keyboard though, it worked nicely.

Cantor Remix

Is this a request for gergoplex alternatives? If so, the cantor remix is excellent & has a more aggressive pinkie stagger. I built two of them - one for home, and one for work.

Split columnar ortho 36key keyboard w/ choc Very similar to a gergoplex Built a second Cantor remix along with my main one. Selling it as I don’t need a secondary. Soldering isnt professional but shouldve run into issues with it https://github.com/nilokr/cantor-remix Build -PCB x 2 -choc robins clicky switches -MBK Choc Low Profile Keycaps w/ homing keys -blackpill MCUs socketed -Aux cable included need a usb c to connect (not included) comes flashed with Miryoku layout https://github.com/manna-harbour/miryoku looking for 130. Can sell a magnetic usbc cable along with if your looking for one
