KBD.news Published August 24, 2024
The NostrumX by Bennytrouser is a 32-key split keyboard with some splay, using Seeed Xiao BLEs.
This is my new board, based off my other board, the Nostrum, but this one is using a Seeed Xiao BLE instead of a Nice!Nano. Designed to be used with a case only, with the batteries under the PCB – Benny.
Features
32 keys
Choc, hotswap or soldered
3° splay on pinky and ring columns
Seeed Xiao BLE
mildly tented custom case
