Short answer: not guaranteed.
Our Corne Premium Case is designed around our Corne Wireless PCB geometry and mounting pattern. Fit is only guaranteed with our PCB. Third‑party/“normal” Corne Choc PCBs can differ in outline, standoff hole locations, and part placement.
If your custom PCB matches all of the below, it should fit:
- 10x M2 standoff holes in the same positions we use for the case mounting.
- 4x display cover standoff holes located under the JST jack and power switch areas.
- nice!nano placement so the USB‑C lines up with the case opening.
- If you plan to use the case’s switch interface: on‑board power switch and reset positioned where the case expects them. (You can skip the interface, but alignment still affects fit.)
You can see how the PCB needs to sit in the case and where interfaces line up here:

If you’d like, reply/tag me with a top‑down render/gerbers (edge cuts + drill) and I can sanity‑check hole positions vs. our case. For order changes, email hello@typeractive.xyz.
