FAQs

Does this keyboard support backlighting?

No, this specific model is designed for a clean aesthetic and does not feature built-in backlighting.

Can I use any mechanical switch with this board?

The hot-swap PCB is compatible with most standard 3-pin and 5-pin mechanical switches.

How do I switch between connected devices?

You can use the designated function shortcuts to cycle between Bluetooth and 2.4GHz wireless profiles.

Is the internal battery user-replaceable?

The Lithium-Ion battery is internal; for best longevity, avoid complete discharge cycles.

Does it work with macOS?

Yes, it is compatible with Windows and macOS, though some function key shortcuts may vary based on the OS.

What is the benefit of the 96% layout?

It provides a full suite of keys, including the number pad, but with a smaller footprint than a standard 104-key keyboard.

Troubleshooting

Keyboard not responding in wireless mode

Ensure the device is charged and the switch is set to the correct wireless mode (2.4GHz or Bluetooth). Try re-pairing the nano receiver if using 2.4GHz.

Specific keys not registering

Use the hot-swap tool to ensure the switch pins are correctly aligned and firmly seated in the hot-swap socket.

Bluetooth connection drops frequently

Clear existing Bluetooth profiles on your computer and re-initiate the pairing process; ensure no heavy interference from other 2.4GHz devices is nearby.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Versatile connectivity options
  • Space-saving 96% layout
  • Hot-swappable switches for easy customization
  • Gasket-mount design for superior typing feel

Cons

  • Requires manual assembly for custom configurations
  • Steeper learning curve for first-time mechanical keyboard builders

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setting up the V700DIY involves connecting via your preferred method: plug in the USB-C cable for wired use, toggle to 2.4GHz mode using the included nano receiver, or initiate Bluetooth pairing via keyboard shortcuts. Ensure the battery is charged via the USB-C port before initial wireless use. To maintain the board, use a switch puller to remove components for cleaning, and avoid using liquid cleaners directly on the PCB. Always store in a cool, dry place when not in use for extended periods to preserve the Lithium-Ion battery health.
