Gaming Mechanical Keyboard Dark Project ALU87A Midnight RGB

Dark Project ALU87A Midnight RGB Gaming Mechanical Keyboard – All-aluminum CNC Chassis, TKL Format, Hot-Swap Technology, Gasket-Mounted Structure and Factory-Lubricated Components

Bring your battlefield into the deep shades of night with the sophisticated and uncompromising design of the Dark Project ALU87A Midnight RGB. This high-end enthusiast-grade mechanical keyboard is inspired by the "Midnight" concept with its stunning, dark aesthetic and rich, contrasting backlighting. Designed in the classic and extremely popular Tenkeyless (TKL) format, the ALU87A combines a solid aluminum body, revolutionary Gasket-mount architecture, and a Hot-Swap PCB for quick switch replacement, transforming every gaming session into a premium experience.

Solid, All-Aluminum Aircraft-Grade Chassis

The main highlight of the ALU87A Midnight series is its chassis, CNC-milled from a single solid block of aircraft-grade aluminum. The special anodized coating in a rich black color is extremely resistant to wear, scratches, and fingerprints. Thanks to its substantial weight, the metal construction ensures that the keyboard will not move a millimeter on your desk even during the most aggressive gaming sessions. The all-aluminum architecture completely eliminates twisting, creaking, and hollow plastic resonances.

Key Features and Engineering Advantages

1. Elite Gasket-Mounted Structure for Perfect Acoustics

The Dark Project ALU87A Midnight is built in the likeness of the world's best custom keyboards. The Gasket-mount system used isolates the internal PCB from the aluminum casing through soft silicone gaskets and multi-layered sound-absorbing pads (PORON foam and silicone dampeners). This architecture softens typing pressure and absorbs structural vibrations, creating the class's iconic clean, deep, and rich clicking sound (the so-called "Thocky" sound).

2. Full Hot-Swap Functionality (3-pin and 5-pin)

No need to limit yourself to just one switch model. Hot-Swap technology allows you to change mechanical switches in seconds, without touching a soldering iron or requiring special technical skills. The PCB supports both 3-pin and 5-pin switches (Cherry, Gateron, Kailh, Outemu, etc.), giving you complete freedom to experiment and modify the feel of the keyboard at any time.

3. Factory-Lubricated Switches and Stabilizers for Silky Smooth Travel

Each switch and stabilizer on the long keys (Space, Enter, Shift) undergoes a precise factory lubrication process with high-quality lubricants (Krytox-style). This eliminates friction, the "springy" effect, and the annoying rattling of large buttons. The result is an incredibly smooth, "silky" keypress right out of the box.

4. Optimized Tenkeyless (TKL / 80%) Format

By removing the numeric keypad (Numpad), the ALU87A Midnight optimizes your gaming space. The compact size maintains a natural and ergonomic hand posture and provides a huge working radius for wide, aggressive mouse movements at low DPI – a vital factor in intense FPS shooters and Esports titles.

High-End PBT Keycaps and Midnight RGB Backlighting

• Durable PBT Keycaps: The keycaps are made of dense, thick-walled PBT material using double-shot injection technology. They have a pleasant matte texture for excellent grip, do not wear out over time, and are completely immune to the appearance of a greasy or shiny effect.

• Dynamic Midnight RGB System: The black keyboard chassis serves as a perfect contrasting background for the vibrant RGB backlighting. Individual lighting for each key supports millions of colors and dozens of dynamic effects, which are easily controlled and programmed via specialized software.

Technical Specifications

Who is the Dark Project ALU87A Midnight RGB keyboard suitable for?

• Esports players and shooter fans: A perfect choice for titles like Counter-Strike 2, Valorant and Apex Legends, where fast switch reaction, brutal stability of the heavy chassis, and maximum mouse movement space are required.

• Keyboard enthusiasts: Anyone looking for the feel, weight, and premium sound of expensive "custom" aluminum-cased keyboards, without having to assemble and lubricate parts manually.

• Streamers and programmers: Thanks to the sealed Gasket-mount structure and lubricated components, the keyboard operates pleasantly, softly, and solidly, without generating unnecessary noisy frequencies that could interfere with the microphone.
