ReOrtho60 L-HE

A low-profile magnetic switch 60% keyboard in an ortholinear grid layout — sharing the ReLow60 case and FSU, with only the layout rethought

ReOrtho60 L-HE

This model is in development. The release order is decided by vote (see the series page). Specifications, names and design may change.

Overview

The ReOrtho60 L-HE arranges its keys in an ortholinear grid. Row stagger is a leftover from typewriter linkages that had to clear each other; with the linkages long gone, this model puts the keys back on a grid. It shares the same aluminium case and FSU structure as the ReLow60 L-HE; only the layout is rethought.

For the features shared across the series (low-profile magnetic switches, 8000 Hz, FSU, ReConf), see the ReLow60 L-HE series page.

Layout

A 15-column × 5-row grid with two 2u keys in the bottom centre (five keys to the left, six to the right). Almost everything is 1u, so a set of low-profile 1u keycaps covers nearly the whole board.
