one 2 mini with QMK, mods

Another project which made me a lot of fun: Modding a stock keyboard until it is just amazing!

Therefore I bought a Ducky one 2 mini model version 1861ST and started some modding.

What I did:

  • cleaned the keyboard
  • unsoldered the switches
  • spring swapped the springs of the switches
  • lubed the switches with Krytox GPL205g0
  • lubed the stabs with Krytox GPL205g0
  • applied the tape mod
  • filled the case with PolyFill
  • flashed QMK incl. working RGB light (the QMK merged build is not activated to work with RGB LEDs so far but this worked for me: link)

I am really satisfied with the result and happy to gift the keyboard to other future enthusiasts.

Hey!

Could you leave a write up or link to a write up to how you flashed QMK w/ the RBG working?

I was deciding between the Ducky One 2 Mini and the Anne Pro 2, and this would definitely make me lean towards the Ducky One 2 Mini.

Also, would you have the Ducky One 2 Mini v2 model? or is this v1?
