Is there someone here that can read mandarin and is willing to buy for me from Taobao this Realforce 103UB? I will pay whatever reasonable commission you want. Thank you.

Realforce is seriously expensive and it is risky to ship such expensive stuff all the way to here.
Also, incase any mechanical failure(like switches), unlike Cherry switch, it isn't easy to find parts and fix it by yourself.

Ask Cyclone, he is the Malaysian distro.
If there are any issues, it will be much easier.

Switch Try Numpad is Ready !!!!


Anyone who wants to try them switches before buying anything, PM me and I'll add you to the list
To test is free, but you will need to pay shipping to the next person

This numpad will allow you test out the keyfeel of the Cherry MX switches.
As to the noise part, the numpad has a rather hollow construction, and the noise has been amplified and makes a louder noise on the Clacking of the keys than other keyboards.

Hmm, is the board still functional? hmm.gif
Why don't just shipping cutted 4 keys PCB like what being done in GH?
BTW, nice one there. Plate-mounted, mean nobody(unless he is despo...) will disassemble the switch unnecessarily

Yes, the board is still functional, hence no cutting.
Plus, just a piece of PCB, would not be good enough to get a closer keyfeel.
Numpad is as close as you can get without going to a keyboard.


@noobandroid,
The requirement is for anyone joining to ship it to the next guy, whichever method possible.
Recommended to use poslaju/posdaftar whenever possible.
PosBungkusan will be too slow.

The person shipping to you will also have to pay more to get it shipped to you.
If you don't want to pay for shipping, you can opt out from this.

about the Legend:
Black + Brown Spring = Red
Clear + Brown Spring = Ergo Clears
Blue + Black Spring = Green

busted black + brown spring = red.
I've tested it, feels a bit stiffer than the actual red. tongue.gif
and clear + brown spring feels totally "sedut".
blue + black spring doesn't feels much better as well.

Yeah.
But I don't have any Red stems lying around. It's as close as you can get.
Clear + 65g springs is much more springier than with brown springs. Don't have the sticking feeling that you are talking about.

I did blue + black spring since i have the blue switch lying around and 2 normal blue switches are more than enough.

Not really recommended but it is among the cheapest option available in Malaysia, so no choice if you had no better budget or only want to test water first(though it may still not deliver what a real mechanical kb will fell, especially the solidness).

If you ever want to get it, normal edition to save yourself some problems(in case anything break down) and moneys. If you plan to resell it in future, Ultimate may had a better resale value(just based on my assumption that lots ppl out there like BL over no BL).

Meh, it will cost you at least 470 USD b4 did, problems? whistling.gif

Well I already have an orange set, and it was 110 US$ without shipping and 160+US$ with. It's so pwetty though!

Am trying to source for a All 30G/45G Topre Realforce but it seems only the Topre Pro offers it, and I don't trust Taobao shippers enough to take care of the package :S

The most expensive stuff I've ever buy off Taobao was a FILCO, it came in nicely packed.
All 45g for ANSI layout is available in 86u/87u/104u
All 30g is also available for JIS layout.

There's a question I want to ask you guys, do you prefer to type on a flat/un-elevated keyboard or elevated keyboard...

because I find my ducky shine's extra elevation is still too low, and I put a few small blocks to increase the height.

For you guys that are asking why 60195302920 isn't working, well... the truth is.. i screwed up. i posted wrong number.

It is suppose to be 6016-530 2920


QUOTE(ricstc @ Feb 25 2012, 03:18 PM)
Is it only me?

I have been calling Tel: +6019-530 2920 which is supposed to be a Leopold distributor but the person picking up is a lady which is a native Sabahan in the state of Sabah Easy Malaysia itself.

The number was also the same in V4 and copied over this V5 here. Why hasnt anyone asked about it except me?

Can anyone comment especially cyclonechuah?

Thanks for pointing this out, i fixed this, it's weird that no one ever pm me and asking about this problem. For Contacting me. SMS is preferable. try contact me thru there.
