that is if u know-how to mod it urself, most ppl wouldn't want to do it on their own and willing to pay more for it, no need to risk spoiling the whole keyboard while modding it...

i spoilt mine, no worries. made own reason to get another kb.

My ninja arrived ! expected the blue switch a bit louder but its fine to me . Time to practice my typing to be faster The reviews on the internet didnt lie when they said filco is sturdy and heavy. . Kinda sad though, my house is kinda dusty too. the sexy black keyboard gonna be gray later.

You guys who got your keyboard from taobao, how do you claim the warranty?
Send it back to China?

Got a box the other day,
and opened up:


got quite some freebies from Taobao


so here is every things,
the DSA keycaps from GH, is sent to me together with the keyboard.
so the keyboard comes with:
the cleaning gel...
a brush, for cleaning purpose,
and a wire management strap..


Super Clean EUROPE NEW...... What's with the Europe thing...


Inside the keyboard box,
there is a mini USB wire,
RGB modifiers (thick PBT),
and a wire keycaps puller.


so this is how the keyboard look like from top.



From side,


Got a dust cover for it,
last time ask the guy to bend it with one single piece,
that work, but it warped when it's done,
and according to the maker, it is inevitable due to the process of bending it is heating,
and it warp after it's cold down... So I ask him to glue them together.

And last but not least:

LEDs modded by Kai. ask for his assistance if you need any,
look great with the LEDs! it look like a spaceship if you ask me.

bro show dsa keycaps also ma

How long he take for modding the LED ?

Great one, is that poker with Purple LED or Blue? I have got a similar dust cover for mine as well. And someone gonna say "haha you have got a China version Poker 2"

Judging from Kaysa's earlier post, should be around 2-3 weeks

I see, but.... who is Kai, actually

Kai's modding not so long la, that time line include the time I order from Taobao.
you all must ask Kai for how long it take, my took longer since he is not at home when the keyboard sent to his hometown.
The DSA keys is quite nice, but the spacebar doesn't fit to the Poker2...
it's a bit sticky, wonder what is the reason...... maybe will post some image or video of it later. or in a few days time..... or maybe will forgot that

Kai you also dunno ah???
LoL.

He is one of the oldest mechanical keyboard Guru in this topic.

Thank you, just keep it if needed for future

Buy the one from alixinzhai, he/she made a acrylic casing for pokers.

haha its nice to see the mech kboard family getting bigger and more people getting into it than before would like to get a DK2108s but my KBT race still working fine xD and gf wont let me buy another keyboard hahaha

Then better not buy liao. : P Otherwise later argue and pecah : (

Yots preorder is starting, i can help you secure chances higher

then it is time to poison them and bring them to the "mech" side

Ducky's quality is fine, won't say it's superb though... as least better than your average mechanical keyboard

Ducky feels more sturdy than Rosewill??? But Ducky uses aluminium backplate while Rosewill uses steel backplate


Good things indeed don't come cheap, that is after you exclude backlits and Razer's....

Hah. Perhaps I confused you right there. What I meant was the led size to fit into the poker 2. And if anyone knows which led would be suitable ? The round headed ones or square ones.
Many thanks.

From what I read around.. the square ones are better. Cherry keycaps are better for square ones, and they are brighter right?
