Electro-capacitive keyboards have long been a hidden gem in the mechanical keyboard world—a cult favorite among enthusiasts who seek an unparalleled typing experience. Over the years, access to EC has improved, but never quite enough.
Until now, the choices have been limited. You’re either salvaging pre-built boards for parts or settling for standalone components that never quite hit the perfect balance of quality, compatibility, and price.
That’s where DynaCap™ changes everything.
Our mission is simple: to make electro-capacitive keyboards more accessible, less confusing, and better than ever. By offering a complete suite of high-quality EC components, we’re giving enthusiasts the options they’ve always wanted—without the compromises.
The DynaCap™ Stack
Learn about each of the 22 (and counting) unique products that make up the DynaCap™ ecosystem; individually engineered from the start to address and eliminate the limitations of EC designs. Not a single part of the DynaCap™ catalog is a white-labeled part. Everything was custom designed and manufactured to our very specific specs.
1u Sliders
Extended MX stem to match MX keycap height and prevent interference. Snug yet safe keycap fit. Clip-less design for easier installation and prevention of broken clips getting lost in your build. Optimized for DynaCap™, but works with third-party housings too.
2u Sliders
Just like the 1u sliders, we re-engineered the MX stems to eliminate keycap interference. The wire slot is designed to gently “bite” for a tighter fit; reducing rattle and improving overall sound.
Stab Sliders
Our stab sliders feature a closed-loop design with a V-cut bite to minimize rattle and eliminate ticking. It’s symmetrical, reversible, clip-less, and installs easily without any hassle.
1u Housings
Built from scratch to eliminate the dreaded keycap interference that has plagued EC for years. Designed for use in 1.5mm plates by default, but can also be used in 1.2mm plates with gaskets.
2u Housings
Zero keycap interference, no matter the profile. No shaving required. Tight tolerances make tuning easy when paired with DynaCap™ 2u sliders.
Stab Housings
North- or south-facing, no trimming, no degradation. Clip-less stem support for easier installs and smooth, unrestricted travel.
Light DOEMS
Not a typo! Our domes are inspired by OEM domes, so we call them DOEMS (doh-ee-ems)
~35g | Our lightest domes with softer tactility and quicker press. Translucent silicone for a clean look.
Medium DOEMS
~45g | OEM-inspired domes with a nostalgic bump and lively rebound. Red silicone, perfect if you’re new to EC or a seasoned happy hacker.
Heavy DOEMS
~55g | Firmest option with strong rebound, minimal wobble, and a rounded bump. Black translucent silicone for a bold touch.

DynaCap™ Travel Specs
DynaCap is optimized for use with 0.5mm silencing rings, which provide 0.25mm of pre-compression to keep everything snug and eliminate unwanted rattle. We know some EC enthusiasts prefer a bit more travel, so we also offer 0.3mm rings, allowing for up to 3.95mm of total travel. Technically, you can use DynaCap™ without any rings, but doing so leaves a 0.25mm gap above the slider, which may introduce rattle on the upstroke from the lack of a ring. We don’t recommend it, but we’re sharing the specs anyway so you can make an informed decision.
