OK. The final purchase has been made, it’s time to total up the cost.

• IRIS PCB/Case – $57.30 : keeb.io
• TRRS Cable – $3.89 – Cable required to connect the left and right keyboards together. : Monoprice
• Purple LEDs – $9.25 – Have to have back lit keyboards! : switchtop
• LED Resistors – $7.99 – Need to control the power flow to the LEDs : Amazon
• Arduino Micro Pro (x2) – $39.90 – These are a bit pricey, but I hear they’re the better ones. : Amazon
• Gateron Switches – $18.25 – Blues for my FN keys (16) and Browns for my Alpha-numeric (40). : switchTop
• Keycaps: Modifier keys and Alpha-numeric: $69. Modifiers from WASD and the Alpha-numeric from MAX.

I wasted $6.95 buying the wrong LED’s from Amazon.

The grand total for this was: $212.53.

More than I was expecting to spend on a keyboard, but it was so much fun to build and customize. I love that I can change keys on a whim, or if I find myself pressing the wrong key, I can change it and if I don’t like it, change it back. There is a little bit of coding involved, but it’s pretty simple once you see how the logic works on the firmware.  I’m expecting to get my keycaps next week, and when I do, I’ll upload my pictures I’ve taken of this project. It’s been a blast, and I can’t wait to build another one.
