why spacebar they choose to be ABS doh.gif

Adik, pbt is well known for shrinking when cooled. This is the cause of the infamous curved pbt spacebar.

So to overcome such problem, they rather opt for abs instead.

Custom order's spacebar? Too sharp? Must be signature plastic.

yeah this was the double shot SP custom bulk we did on geekhack. I mean generally it was good, but the spacebar was atrocious.

I must say the awkward angle made my thumb feels very uncomfortable. I dislike SP spacebar.
Cherry or OEM will do fine.

I thought you said want to wait for IMSTO PBT?
His set already arrived. Black Blue Green Red.
Like weeks ago.
This is the green. Looks nice. Do note that his caps lock is white for standard layout like filco ducky etc

hi unseen,

well..... this is what i tried to explain when i created the first malaysian mechanical keyboard club.

It's exactly this awareness i wanted to raise. I was like you once, i had a Logitech G15 V1, and i thought that was the best there was, but actually it was a overpriced posĀ  sweat.gif

Just because a keyboard looks nice and has lights, does not make it a good keyboard, because there are many things people who did not know the difference, did not take into account such as......

1. the keycap quality. the print type, as well as the plastic used.
- the print type effects how easy the printed characters will fade off. also is the contrast of the characters good enough to see clearly ?
- the plastic used. the cheap ones tend to get shiny over time, which is most apparent especially on the spacebar.

2. the actuation force when typing on the keys.
- on a membrane keyboard, this can feel very mushy and unsatisfying, but even worse, when your gaming or even generally typing, when you thought you had clearly pressed the key, but it didn't output the character you typed. This is because it's not as precise/reliable as a mechanical switch.
- for mechanical keyboards there are many switches with actuation forces ranging from black (hard,), brown (medium), blue (slightly lighter than brown), red (lightest)
- there is also linear/non-linear; clicky/non-clicky. For me personally i cannot stand clicky typing, so i stick to non-clicky. If you want the quitest, there is the topre keyboards that use a hybrid mechanical switch.

Been busy playing game, watch anime hehe  nod.gif

Not to mention broke (spent at least Rm 1XXX on keyboard so far lulz...) so not trying to get poisoned .... (although i was the first to poison malaysia with it  laugh.gif )

cool.gif
I use the pbt spacebar from my Ducky Dk-9008 Tiger limited edition. I really like the feel and the shape.

The other spacebar from my custom made order was too steep and didn't feel comfortable. There is a totally big difference between the 2 doh.gif

PS: no shine even after a few years of usage  nod.gif  so pbt lives up to it's reputation.
