QUOTE(JohnDiew0107 @ Jun 15 2013, 02:43 AM) even bizarre.. if any of you notice that Filco Minila's R1 (ZXC row) is slightly offset (0.25 units) to left due to the shorter left shift and cramped right section Sounds familiar... Oh, it is the TEX with its 2X size left shift... |

QUOTE(KepalaRadio @ Jun 15 2013, 02:54 AM) Wow good eye, that might be a problem for many people. Even one don't have good, it doesn't take a genius to identify the bizarre spacebar, LOL.In short, anything apart from 6.25x, 7x or the minimum 6x spacebar is a big NO. |

It's a Razer on steroid.  Without the Razer RMA I hopeQUOTE(CyntrixTech @ Jun 15 2013, 10:50 AM)  There's a bit of problem with Topre. The shipping rate is very expensive..it's USD 200 per carton (RM60 each keyboard) and USD 500 per 5 cartons (RM 30+ per keyboard). I want to keep the Type Heaven at RM 499 and not over RM 5xx. Will be working hard on getting them in to hit this price range. This post has been edited by Human10: Jun 15 2013, 11:29 AM |

QUOTE(Cyclonechuah @ Jun 15 2013, 11:34 AM) gigabyte mechanical keyboard has been existed for a long time before filco entered malaysia and before i started announce i'm bringing in leopold, which is years ago. its just that they had bad reputation, and they qc is really bad enough to make people avoid their product you can search for their history. I know, that stuff.Quite a unique stuff back then, probably the "1st gaming mechanical keyboard". Now for the osmium, it just feel like "yet another BWU's brother..." |

QUOTE(epsilonphi @ Jun 15 2013, 12:03 PM) Hi all sifus here, If significantly not same brightness then you probably got a (soon to be) faulty LED.I got a backlit mech kb recently, and found that one of the led on a switch was not as bright as the other keys. Is this normal? |

QUOTE(jedi_dc @ Jun 15 2013, 01:08 PM) I've got my geeky eyes set on the Ducky Shine 3, due to the reactive backlighting! Go Baram find diaBoliQu3, owai.Will this be a good first mech keyboard? tested the razer blackwidow ultimate, loved the 'click' , and did some research ; it's running cherry MX blues if im not wrong. So will the Shine 3 produce the same 'click' and feel? Unfortunately there's no ducky users here in Miri  |

QUOTE(d-ky @ Jun 15 2013, 04:11 PM) anyhere heard of noppoo (some random china brand, probably) Noppoo is not ordinary random china brand, they being making mkb quite long time already (they are OEM by PLUM, which dated even to an earlier time).the cheapest board goes under 200 with led; and yes, im interested just for collection, fyi  BTW, your under 200 with LED board is which one? AFAIK, I don't really recall having such things, except for my PLUM96 modded with LED. This post has been edited by Human10: Jun 15 2013, 04:29 PM |

Nyan cat on taobao,
http://item.taobao.com/item.htm?spm=a1z10....&id=20549639129 QUOTE(CwwKiT @ Jun 15 2013, 04:46 PM) He got light blue PBT, but dye-subbed. I think you need to special contact him to get blank one.BTW, just FYI, PBT rarely had black color (the dark grey PBT of Vortex is among the only few I came across). Thats why they (manufacturers) normally always use POM for black, PBT for white. If you do consider POM, then Keycool got them. http://item.taobao.com/item.htm?spm=a1z10....id=14011959835& Apart from black POM, you can also opt for rainbow POM. http://item.taobao.com/item.htm?spm=a230r....&id=10750871018  This post has been edited by Human10: Jun 15 2013, 05:24 PM |

QUOTE(ainuddin @ Jun 15 2013, 07:18 PM) had a nightmare desoldering leds before. Yar, regarding desoldering LED part, I agree.  but its a great challenge though.It is better to have a proper desoldering gun than using soldering iron + vacuum suck... BTW, the one in my link got non-LED version, get it for the sake of wireless. This post has been edited by Human10: Jun 15 2013, 07:38 PM |

QUOTE(kaiserreich @ Jun 15 2013, 07:40 PM) Desoldering LEDs needs a ton of solder, a plier and a good vacuum sucker. I tried to look for a device like this b4 (which is a hybrid of vacuum suck with soldering tips), but no luck finding it locallyI recommend the Edsyn soldapult. http://item.taobao.com/item.htm?spm=a230r....f&id=2456052135 Radioshack (not local one) also seems to having similar device, but instead fusing 2 device directly into one, they simply combining them at the tips http://www.radioshack.com/product/index.js...oductId=2062731 BTW, if the LED is not going to be salvaged for future use, I simply heat it like no tomorrow till all solder melt off it, LOL.
