Advantage2 KB600

Long time Kinesis fan here: I’ve been using the advantage for 15+ years. At home I have a 360 pro - one of the original first 500 run from the presale in 2022. I added a few macros to the ZMK firmware - and it has sat pretty much unchanged since. The Bluetooth is stable usually, but a PITA. As it ne

I'm not handy with the soldering iron. So I sent it off to someone who is, Upgrade Keyboards, which is an authorized partner with Kinesis. They sell customized Kinesis keyboards and are willing to work on aftermarket Kinesis keyboards. So I just bought a Kinesis Advantage 2 from eBay and then sent i

I’ve been using the Kinesis Contoured (now Advantage 2) since 1994. It was a game changer for me. Finding one for free is insanely lucky. There are many mods/upgrades worth considering: replacing the keycaps (SA row 3), replace the controller, adding damping inside, and advanced: swapping switches (

There you go. You are set. By the way, if you want to customize a Kinesis Advantage 2, Upgrade Keyboards is a fantastic shop to send your keyboard to. I had them customize both of the Advantage 2 keyboards that I use, one for home, one for work, and swap in custom switches and both of them are perfe

I come from a Kinesis Advantage2 which has a ton of thumb keys and had the same experience as you with the Moonlander. On the contrary the two thumb keys on the Voyager are very well placed and I just need to worry and use two keys per thumb. The experience has been so good for the 9+ months I’ve ha

I've done it myself -- and more: I added a trackpad between the keys, add PBT, add QMX clips, then added custom switches. The PBT I have are exact duplicates, but the group doing them went out of business. Kinesis makes PBT for the Advantage 360. Here's a review of those on the Advantage 2. PBT is q

Huh. Nuphy should update their spec page, then. You cannot go wrong with TTC Frozen Silents. Funny thing -- I don't have a full set of them. I think I have enough for half a board. Eventually, I'll pull the trigger to get more, but I am always wanting to try something new. For my day to day, they do

If you want spare parts you should go to kinesis, the source. They used to provide them for the advantage2.

I am relatively new to Kinesis. Had Advantage2 for about 2 years and just got a 360 Pro. Have zero issues typing on my laptop keyboard except some keys are in different places but I got used to the switch pretty quickly. Using Kinesis and normal laptop layout. Just makes me want to use the Kinesis m

The Kinesis Pro. That's an oldie. I still have my Kinesis Essential. Don't know if still works, though. If you haven't already, I highly recommend buying an inexpensive mechanical keyboard, trying out the plethora of Cherry MX switches, finding one that you love, and then buying an Advantage 2 off o
