Presoldered split keyboard - eviltoast

Hi everyone! I’m planning on getting a split keyboard to replace my planck, but I don’t have a soldering iron.

What are my options ? Ideally I want:

  • DIY, no soldering involved
  • QMK firmware
  • 40% format

The keyboard I’m leaning toward is the let’s split as it’s a planck split in two halves, but it seems that you need to at least solder the keycaps yourself, which I can’t.

    Or one could buy any of the existing pre-built splits. Which might be more expensive, but it does not involve something one very explicitly said they don’t want to do.

    I’d rather spend twice as much on a well built keyboard with warranty than trying to solder one together myself and botch it up, and then it suddenly costs more than if I just bought a pre-built one.
