Oh, because i've read a lot of websites they all say that the Red's are really really light to the point its not nice for gaming and typing.

I've never used a mechanical keyboard before so would it be easy to get used to?

Errors or typos are expected when first shift to it. After few weeks, you will get use to it and like it over rubber domes.


Btw, the sensitive you say just now is about easy to press? Then red is. To be safe better try it your own n4 you made the purchase. Different ppl having different preference of stiffness.

I wonder if the Trigger can change from red to blue LED xD

DIY yourself then. It will void the warranty though.


Added on October 20, 2012, 5:29 amWooha, disassemble of Logitech G710+ is out.

Added on October 20, 2012, 5:37 amAlso it should be pretty much confirmed that Logitech is using same OEM as Corsair for their mech kb. There are too much similarities between the two.

Sorry to ask, what is SP? btw this custom order are from GH forum?

SP - signature plastic

Cream Cheese is once a group buy in GH. But IIRC, Koreans also made their GB b4.

Oh signature plastic doh.gif hmm do u think tat if i custom order this kcaps alone will be expensive?

It is near to impossible insane to order little units from SP. The price will be exorbitantly great. It cost them alot to open a mold for GB each time so normally you only purchase from SP when there is a group buy.

It is like 10units will cost 100USD each, but 100units will lower the price to 50USD each(just an example).


Added on October 20, 2012, 11:40 pmFor a low units count, it is better to go for custom dye-sub PBT from IMSTO(KBC).

Congratulations! Unless you abuse the thing, the case will last more than 10 years for sure. The switches should be OK too for 10 years. One of my Kinesis keyboards, which is more than 10 years old, has MX browns that feel nice. (It's funny how different the switches feel on different boards.) But if something goes wrong with the switches, they can be changed easily. If the controller goes bust, that might be a little trickier but still possible to fix. Not sure if you will want to go through that much for a modern Filco though.

BTW, it is customary to take some pics of your new board and share them with the community. smile.gif
*
I came across some thread in China forums that they go to the extend that fixing burn controller themselves by replacing with new controller(some of them asking from the manufacturers of their boards and they get them). I must say nice skills and knowledge they had there. Controllers having many tiny pins, and it is hard to get them done without messing it up. A little bit of soldering iron left can lead to short circuit and the new controller probably gone again.

Some others even more hardcore, purposely buy those faulty boards/PCB and revive or made new boards from them. sohardcore.jpg

And according to current computing trend, keyboard may be obsolete or extinct in less than 5 years of time. Though, I guess that won't stop us from playing around with keyboards.

can provide link to the topic?? my friend got a faulty DK1008, thinking of replacing the controller

In Malaysia, I believe it is better to claim warranty for it if still under warranty.
Ducky is just distributed by distributors in Malaysia, not sure if they can/will supply you the replacement controller. Somemore 1008 kind of EOLed already.

just those 2? the keys will be the same? Because I saw the shine1 is at like rm330 from one guy in garage sales thought if it was jsut backlit diff then i might as well get shine1
*
Not sure bout other different but probably won't be the main factors(improved keycaps coating and so on).
Edit: Oh, just remember that Shine2 can save its backlit mode but Shine1's get reset everytime you off your comp.

If you found new Shine1 for only 330, then go ahead, it is a good buy.
