A number of Model 01 keyboards from the first two production runs developed ‘key chatter’ problems, either over the first few weeks of their lives or later on. This usually manifests as repeated keystrokes. For example, if you type ‘r’, the keyboard might instead send ‘rr’ or ‘rrr’ some or all of th…

I have founnd that my keyboard occasionnally generates a seconnd n when typing n. I have tried repeatedly pressing the n key, and haven’t yet nonticed any sort of pattern to the generation of double n’s. No other keys seem to be affected. This post itself is an example of the effect – I have not cor…

That’s no good. It sounds like you ended up with a keyboard that either has a defective keyswitch or a soldering issue on the switch or diode of your ‘n’ key. Can you drop us email at support@keyboard.io so I can set up a replacement for you?

I get double A’s fairly frequently and occasional double S’s, but I attribute it to being slow enough getting my finger off the key to trigger a held key repeat. I’m planning on ferreting out the setting to make that delay longer. Yours looks like a different issue to me, just noting my case for ot…

Today I noticed that my butterfly key doesn’t always register when pressed down. I’ve had my keyboardio for over a week, but since the butterfly key is mapped to Right Alt, which I never use, I haven’t noticed anything unusual about the key until now. Today I remapped the key, and was confused why …

So, in case somebody else stumbles upon this thread, one of the things mentioned via email was “to turn your keyboard upside down and to press the offending key 10-20 times.
