Core, by who? Who makes the board? I love low-profile and it looks like it was constructed very well.

OLKB Planck has the low profile case option -- I'm using it right and I do recommend it.

This magnetic cable includes a USB mini-b tip if you get the complete set.

Yep, got a Pok3r rgb just a week ago. First thing I was searching after I get it, was a mini usb magnetic connector... nothing like it on the entire planet.

ElForasteroIt's better not having to do that. But I think magnetic usb is really nice, sorta like mag safe.

I can't lie. A lot of the reason I ordered this board was because of your post here. I'm typing on it now. There is going to be a huge learning curve but I think I can manage. And I think it's going to be worth it. Also first time with clears. Love them so far!

It’s a bit lighter than a pok3r. If weight is your main concern then it’s a great option.

cbalcom03i actually really like the weight. the pok3r is prolly the heaviest keyboard i own. the heft makes it feel higher quality

As a side note, the lack of magnetic Mini-B adapters can be circumvented by using a Mini-B to Micro-B adapter...
If those exist. I can't find any.

You lucky son of a...
I'm stuck with a FC750R and a V60 Mini that's coming this April. Both have Mini-B; I'm out in the cold.
I shouldn't have bought salt in Ishigaki when I went there this February. *sigh*

My ANNE PRO uses micro i think, its the same port im using to charge my android phone. But tbh I wouldnt mind seeing a skip in Micro/Mini and jump straight to USB Type-C. Everything is going there now.

UW_NBI'm surprised so many of the keyboards here still use mini given the stated problems with that connector. I would love to see projects like Planck go into that direction.

Seriously, what brands out there do people have experience with. I would like to find one where I can swap out mini and micro tips.

jceaserSadly I have not seen mini usb tips.
This is good: https://www.amazon.com/iKNOWTECH-Magnetic-Braided-Charger-Indicator/dp/B01MA6JT6K/ref=sr_1_7?ie=UTF8&qid=1486314910&sr=8-7&keywords=magnetic+usb
This is also good because you can use your own micro usb cable. https://www.amazon.com/Magnetic-Adapter-ZIYUO-Charger-Android/dp/B01MFBHXI5/ref=sr_1_26?s=wireless&ie=UTF8&qid=1486315019&sr=1-26&keywords=magnetic+micro+usb+cable
I currently us this, but I don't know when it will go back in stock. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01GJ4IDCW/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o04_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

BrannyI've been using "Charge ASAP" products for years. I like the smaller device end than the 'adapters' I've been seeing in this thread. I use them for USB-C and USB-micro.

Does the ALT v2 PCBA support USB-C e-marked cables?
Currently my ALT v1 does not work with e-marked USB-C cables. I was wondering if the v2 PCBA does support these types of cables (thunderbolt 4 cable for example)?

How do you do per-key RGB lighting on a Shift V2?
I saw the online configurator that lets you do this on the Shift V1, where it spits out a compiled firmware file to flash. The V2 doesn't seem to have this function in the Windows configurator, though. I can't imagine the answer here is "you're going to have to manually write the hex for every key in QMK, compile it, and flash that".

One part I really like about the Core is the Micro usb connector, This allows me to attach a magnetic USB cable and base.
I wish magnetic cables were made for Mini usb. (someone do it quick)
The magnetic function allows me to easily remove the cable without wearing down the internal micro usb.
I am living the core so far and I hope you all do to.
Happy clacking,
