I wonder too. Maybe I put it on the least used key. I have one key I hardly use: | and \ key, just beside the + key. I am on a Mac so I hardly ever need backslash.

Isn't the brobot a 1x sized key?

I think I am crazy to spend RM180 on ONE key cap. I didn't want to but I can't resist a steel made key cap. That looks really awesome. Yeah. I am done. I have R4 and R5 caps on the way and waiting for Penumbra invoice. Done done done!!

Fear not, it is easily an investment. I am pretty sure it's price will double/triple in future.

Anyone know of any good PCB mounted mech keyboards, preferably with reds or browns?
*
The only remaining maker of PCB mounted mech keyboards are Plum and Cherry, where both of them are in the stage of migrating to steel plate also...

So if you want it, better act fast.

Alternatively, some ergo keyboards are PCB mounted IINM.

Models recommended:
Plum 96 wireless version, Kinesis advantage, cherry 3000/34xx series, poker 1?

Alternatively, there are Neo Zelia 87, but I not too sure if it is a good choice.

Are most Vortex boards PCB mounted?
I know the poker is, but I would prefer to have the arrow keys and stuff.
(TKL but with Ins, Del, Home etc)

Hmm, you are right, I missed some products of Vortex range.

But apart from the Race and pure, their other products are plate mounted IINM.

Also, since previous line of race/pure EOLed, we not sure if they will do like what KBC did (they are sister companies with same manufacturer), adding steel plate like what happened to poker 1 to 2.

poker yes
poker 2 not.
actually I saw poker 2 oni and f104 the pcb support pcb mount.
but the stupid thing is it doesnt have hole to fit pcb mount cherry stabilizer.
so pretty much mod to pcb mount is pointless.

korean custom can do pcb mount.
all of them.

Actually, KMAC 1 GB price was just RM700.
Duck Poker case GB price was RM650

China/Vietname/Amedika/EU cannot fight with Korean pricing for customs

I guess eventually you will root to one particular switch only.
