Hotswap PCB & Plate - Pre Order

The Hotswap extras are sold as a bundle of PCB, plate, and bottom gasket since the plate and bottom gasket are specially designed for use with the hotswap PCB. Key differences include standoffs on the plate for fastening it to the PCB, and cutouts on the bottom gasket to accommodate the hotswap sockets on the PCB.

You may optionally include a middle gasket which can be placed in between the plate and PCB if you would like to achieve a more muted sound profile.

Plates are compatible with all Mode Eighty keyboards, and are intended for use with our hotswap PCB.

The hotswap plate supports a standard or Tsangan bottom row, normal caps lock, normal right shift, and normal backspace.

The Mode Eighty Hotswap PCB was designed by Gondolindrim and supports each of the layouts supported by our hotswap compatible plates. It runs on QMK firmware and may be programmed using Via.

Please note the daughterboard is not included with the PCB, please reach out to support if you need a replacement.
