Last time I bought keycool white pbt key caps fits nice on Ducky, but not Filco stem.
Maybe not universal enough to fits all nicely.
Got another marketplace for keycaps
http://www.keycapsdirect.com/marketplace.php

If can fit ducky, I don't see why can't fit filco.

Btw, POM got problem cause POM tend to counteract more compared to abs, hence POM keycaps that use same mold as abs do will become too tight.

need another type of keycap puller just for changing POM keycaps.
method of pulling keycaps also diff from what i saw in some post or taobao links.

Actually, it still cause the stem is too tight. A properly made POM won't have such problem.

My mx brown stem on filco is bigger. All key caps feel tighter on filco.

Ducky mx blue stem are smaller. Non-standard.
I will try to get d measurement and see.

That's something new, post it up here when you get the comparison picture.

Wait FMJ TKL Case.
Wait OTD TKL Case.
Wait Sprit Lambor TKL Case.

This MX Brown stem from Filco Majestouch 2,


This MX Blue stem from Ducky Shine 2,

Another stem,


As you can see, Filco MX Brown stem is a little different from Ducky MX Blue.
Ducky 1 easy fit for many of keycaps even keycool keycaps, but my Filco can't fit keycool coz too tight.

Edit: stem measurement are same for both, only differences is the cutting of the plastics as show in the picture.
I also dunno that cut area is what name, "bump" ?

For submarines, please check my siggy

Hmm... Your siggy added few more games ~

Not mainstream enough

Whats the other website for keycaps?

quite a few, u can check on the first page.

There is an issue with the old rk-9000 with the weak mini usb socket loosening or breaking off. The newer model fixed that by gluing the socket to the pcb which is still not that ideal. All this to save 5cents by cutting out the usual plastic connector and wires to the socket. The included usb cable is thick and inflexible which puts more stress on the socket connection. I would use a cheap thin usb cable instead of the included one

Right, I must've missed it.

Not a heartbreaker since the issue can be fix.
Thanks for the info.

I can't remember if it was you or someone else who said that it was an easy fix with resoldering the broken connections. I disagree, resoldering is not the type of work someone should put in for a supposedly more reliable mechanical keyboard and its beyond the capabilities of most users.

Not me. You may always ask the soldering service from sifu from this thread, if your keyboard is broken.
But somehow, is that resoldering is learnt from school day?
In the product manufacturing line, there is something called dppm(defects per part million), if you are unlucky, you will get the product that have defects.
Sadly, to say, this is unavoidable.
You can choose to RMA
Somehow, for people know how to fix, they will like hassle to RMA since it takes few weeks to process. So, they will try to solve by themselves aka DIY.

Mechanical keyboard in most people mind is, high repairability - that's why mechanical lasts for more than 10 years time and even 20 before you need to replace it.

this hobby brings out the mr.diy in me =.=

Its dpm. And its not a small problem like you are implying, its quite common if you use the stiff cable which is not surprising looking at the very weak connection of the socket to the pcb. Soldering is not in the basic schooling curiculum and even if it was, its still a non trivial task for most users.

Rosewill should've spent 5cents and glued the socket to the case which would've solved the problem. People don't get mechanical keyboard so they have to waste time to fix problems like this. Swapping out switches after tens of millions of key presses is one thing, this broken socket problem is a proton saga level of flimsy design.
