what will wet sand paper do? my case is the caps went from matte surface to "mirror special edition" after some heavy usage (SFIV,TF2,MW2,O2Jam,LR2,etc). lol

Professionals don't use macros.
Was trying to source for blank PBT orange caps 104 sets, but no luck searching in geekhack, or maybe i missed it. =\ taobao most of them sell 34 instead.
*
well... to be honest.. i did use macro.. =X

But all my macros are on the mouse and i prefer my keyboard to have no macro.

Yes, it's ABS.
Only KBC makes PBT.

I don't understand why people keep saying PBT is better when ABS are used to make Lego.
Even my childhood Lego have no problems lasting so long.

Well, they tends to have read some misleading info.

For PBT, their main advantage are they will not get brown/yellow over years of usage. But Cons are, keep in mind to avoid direct sunlight on PBT Keycap.

I could only see this advantage PBT Keycaps that features white color. Maybe Lasered PBT Keycaps will be better?

Yes, i have to agree with you that ABS plastic have no problems in lasting for long time. I myself would prefer to have doubleshot ABS keycap instead for frequent use key. because when it gets shiny, i can just straight take it off, and brush it with wet sand paper to get back the rough surface, and reuse it back.

Any idea how much are the TKL version going for?
The only thing bad about them is that they yellow and shine as keycaps.
My chemistry knowledge isn't up to par but maybe that's why PBT is chosen to be the material for replacement key caps.

i wondered when will we see PBT Plastic with Double Shot, that will be so so so so awesome

Retail, would like to have a feel of the keys.

i think lowyat plaza would be the place ideal for you. currently only Ducky and Filco are available for testing in lowyat. Leopold would not be available unless you wanna drive to come to taiping which is a far place to come test the switch yourself.

you mean button? althou this is not keyboard related. try search for a switch called "omron switch" those are mouse switch where people purchase separately and mod it into their mouse, the switch lifespan is far greater than other mouse click switch.

Corsair's K60 and K90 are not full mechanical boards  vmad.gif
Some guy noticed there the keys used for the F1-F12 look slightly different, and got this response from Corsair:

"The top row keys, ESC thru Pause/Break, and the Insert thru Page Down keys are dome-switch keys. The same for the G keys on the K90."

OMG, i was just thinking about trying K90, man. that is some nice info, thanks for the heads up man.

For your concern, the size is same to KBC Poker which is a 61 key keyboard.

It is also not a tenkeyless keyboard.

ou crap, i just read carefully about the thread. holyomg.

if what i read is correct, the KBC aluminium casing is sold separately, that means it is a casing which you can replace with your current KBC Poker keyboard casing.(swapping a ABS Casing to a Aluminium Casing)

which means, it is not the keyboard ifself that he is selling.

I opened up my ducky 9008, need some information how to repair my failed LED

When the LED is light on (Connected parallel with another keyboard)

When CAPLOCKS LED On - Multimeter measured 1.2v
When SCROLL LOCK LED On - Mutlimeter measured 1.2v
When NUMPAD LED On - Multimeter measured 0.9V on the failing LED

When it's off All terminal report 0v measurement

Does that indicate a dead LED? I thought it's a lousy soldering job and c causes bad contact but actually the board have some very neat soldering job!

well, i think they will still provide you with support even you did void your warranty, but have to pay for spare parts since you buy from them and replace it i think.

btw off topic, storm88, please give me your bank details, i'll bankin you for sending back the ducky keyboard to me.
