Any mech keyboard to recommend just purely for Typing, 10less key, back lid, below RM400?
*
Cooler Master's Quick Fire Rapid-i is the first one i think of
but if backlit is not a must, i strongly recommend filco majestouch 2 tkl

Why you prefer Filco?

nothing against cm, personally i think their keyboard is very solid. but usually LED means one more thing to worry about

Poker3 is pricey, but if you can afford then it's ok.
Otherwise, will recommend KBParadise V60 then Poker2.
By default, Poker3 provided the all keys like in full layout.
The downside is you needs additional Fn keys to trigger such keys like F1-F12, arrows etc.

If you feel the keys not suit you or you wish stronger remap/script options...
You can use software to remap your keys to suit your daily use. I recommend AutoHotKey.

where you guys get KBParadise here? taobao also?
thinking of getting a pok3r but lady at home been nagging about spending way too much on keyboards so looking for a cheaper alternative

can't find KBP keyboards on taobao but i have seen a few in Heavyarm. for the price of Pok3r, you can get a custom built using GH60 PCB, cases from lambo/enjoyPBT, and gateron switches

good point.

saw this and order for my colleague, it is rather huge (parcel nett weight: 2.41kg, parcel volumetric weight: 7.20kg) resulting in higher air freight charges, totaling to RM170ish

Why not leave your keyboard at office, no need to bring home!

Which MX switches you use at your office?
*
Mx Brown, use to be blue though. been a blue guy since 2009, until i start typing on brown.. miss blue though, shouldnt have sold all of them blue keyboards. sad.gif

QUOTE(davey.havok @ Nov 18 2015, 11:23 PM)
IMO better to just buy the exact same model of keyboard for your office instead of starting to spend money on accessories & taking the trouble to carry it around.

Look at my signature, that's the main reason why I have many dupe keyboards.
*
I have other keyboards at home, just not feeling too comfy to leave my baby at office.. am thinking to get a 60% so will be more convenient to carry it around, but unable to decide blue or brown.

I guess I have more computers than usual, but most of my KBs still remain unused  smile.gif  That's okay as I still enjoy owning & collecting them.

My setup is something like this:
1) Office desktop - Majestouch 2
2) Office laptop - QFRi
*Leave in office drawer - KBP v60
3) Home theater Mac Mini  - Majestouch 2 convertible
4) Home main rig - Blackwidow TE & orbweaver
5) Home secondary rig - QFRi (recently got a Novatouch which is plugged in here as well)
6) Home laptop - KBP v60

I only use 1, 2, 4 and 6 regularly. The rest are just sitting there.
Just lock it in office drawer/cabinet bro... That's what I do.

Speaking of carrying it around... Does anyone here WTS their 60% or 80% Grifiti sleeve? Got some from Massdrop a month ago, but need more now.

thats the spirit! tbh i regret selling off all my blues (except k70 red led). am currently having a hard time deciding poker2 or v60 mx blue. and secretly, i plan to collect a mx red, a mx blue filco mj2 tkl on top of my current mx brown.. but not entirely sure how to hide them from my SO..

my desk is the only one without drawers, and i dont even have stationary .. vmad.gif vmad.gif mad.gif mad.gif

Get both poker2 and v60 (they are under RM300 each new, if you know where to look), use same keycaps for both and tell everyone they're the same  tongue.gif

Then get the 2 MJ2 TKLs, you now own 3, nobody would realize since they look the same.
Time to change job  tongue.gif

very very curious about this.. i got quote 349 for poker 2 and 369 for v60 and i am pulling the trigger this weekend on... one of them. so if there are cheaper alternative, do tell brows.gif

It only looks nice, but the quality is sh*t.

The material is really thin and can tear easily. Also, it is a mega dust magnet.

The worst part is if it kena water. gg

ok, thanks for saving my hard earn money biggrin.gif
but seriously though, it looks damn nice on youtube

Eh, chroma bag? Sorry I was referring to the normal TE bag with velcro.

The chroma bag looks thicker & better as it has a proper zip.

err... sweat.gif please stick to your comment so i dont think of buying it cry.gif

but really though, i havent met someone who is willing to sell sad.gif
