Laneware's latest design to be offered to the Mechanical Keyboard Community! The L-PAD is a gasket mounted macropad with rotary encoder, releasing on the 25th of February 2023 at 20:00 PT as an in-stock purchase for $99 USD. This is the first keyboard we have bought to market that doesn't utilize the Group Buy method, for this reason, we have only manufactured 50 of these as a pilot run.

When designing the L-PAD, we had one focus in mind, to design a product that our customers could use forever. This focus was broken down into three key design parameters, to offer:

  • A product that can fit in aesthetically with any desk setup, both now and in the future.
  • Is small enough to sit off to the side, yet offers all the utility you need out of a macropad.
  • Is built to last, with CNC aluminium body and keycaps and a PCB with ESD, over voltage & over current protection.

Vendor:
Worldwide - https://lanewareperipherals.com/

Base Kit Includes ($99 USD):
Case: Aluminium Base & Top
Plate: 1.5mm Aluminium
PCB: QMK/VIA with Encoder
Daughter Board: USB-C with ESD, Over Voltage & Over Current Protection
Hardware: Encoder, Screws, Gaskets, Feet, Laneware Stickers
Knob: Includes

Keycaps Include ($25 USD):
x5 CNC Aluminium Keycaps

Just saw recently that your store is based in Australia, do you actually sell stuff in Australia too?

Is there a picture of the bottom?

Would a sat75 type knob fit or would there be a large gap between the rim of the case and the knob?

Our store is in USD unfortunately due to our customer base primarily being US based. If this is an issue, we’d be happy to arrange sale direct through PayPal :) just reach out to us via email or discord!

Thank you

But yeah, deal breaker sorry. I am not big fan of companies that are not willing to routinely do business locally. Reminds me of our gas and fishery industries but they at least willing to sell a small fraction of their products locally on a regular basis. And you can find Australian prices too.

I would suggest that you can set up a local site with Australian prices or team up with local retailers. I don't think that will be much extra cost for your company but there are some profits to be made locally. Much easier for you to have local customer than having to deal with overseas ones all the time.
