The Allium58 is an open source 6*4+4keys column-staggered split keyboard. It is based on Lily58 Pro created by kata0510. The Allium58 shares the same layout as the Lily58 Pro and also supports using the original Lily58 Pro firmware. However, several changes have been made to the board:

  • Enhanced Wireless Capability: The Allium58 is designed to be more suitable for wireless builds. It provides native support for utilizing power-saving nice!view or other memory-in-pixel displays. This allows for efficient power management and extended battery life.

  • Improved Battery Management: To enhance battery management, power switches and JST battery sockets have been added to the Allium58. These additions make it easier to control power supply and facilitate seamless battery replacement.

  • GLP (Gateron Low Profile) Socket Compatibility: A variant of Allium58 that works with Gateron Low Profile sockets. This allows for the use of Gateron KS-27/KS-33 low-profile key switches.
