# Lotus 58 v1.27
# Lotus 58 Glow

Starting with simple tweaks to the Lily58 Glow before ordering a set of PCB's it quickly spiraled out of control, and I ended up with what wasn't quite a Lily58 anymore, and although very similar in layout, it is no longer compatible with plate and case design.

Because of this, it was renamed Lotus58, referencing another flower much like the lily in the name Lily58.

# Lotus 58 Glow v1.26

**The second mayor release of the PCB and plates.**
The latest version of the classic TRRS version uses winged SK6812mini-E RGB for BOTH per-key and under-glow RGB for an easier build. Revamped RGB selection allows of BOTH underglow and per-key RGB to be soldered in, and selectable, but without exceeding the power avaiable form the USB port. Retained support for battery cut-off switch for easy wireless builds with nice!nano. Several minor tweaks.

Fully backwards compatible physically identical outline for plates and identical firmware. Updates rewuired to 3D cases for the reset/power switch.
Fully backwards compatible, physically identical outline for plates etc. and identical firmware.
