either he gave me a fake tracking number or my plate genuinely got lost in the mail somewhere in china but im thinking i'm never getting my plate, i totally de-soldered my poker and its ready for a pretty red plate

the **** is up with plate GB's always going wrong (not counting Beast poker as GB because he made the plates before selling, extremely smart move)

Is there any way to get one of these anymore? I know the GB has been closed for a while, but I figured it's worth asking.

I may have one of these or a GH60 (from that group buy) plate available. What layout are you looking for?

Poker preferably. Doing a Miami themed poker, and want one of these to re-anno. It's the best plate I've found. Never thought I'd get my hands on a Miami set, and now I have one, soooo... lol

This will fit a standard poker 2 layout, yes? If so, PM me, and I'm sure we can work something out.

I posted in the other thread but it looks like its dead.

Picked up my plates today. A pure plate and a poker 2 plate.

Imsto said they both would be compatible and neither of them fit.

The pure plate doesn't have a cutout for the caps lock led and the poker 2 plate does not have the cutout for the 2 LEDs beside the space bar.

I'm not understanding why imsto said the plates would support these keyboards, because they simply do not.

Any suggestions? Should I go to a machine shop and have them modify them? Or should I Desolder the LEDs? Is this even possible?

We he said pure plate, instead of plate for KBT Pure, I think what he really meant is Pure layout plate. It's a bit surprising that poker 2 plate does not have cutout for LEDs though, cuz I think the LED question was brought up very early in this post.

What's the color of your Poker 2 plate? If you decide to get rid of it, I would be happy to take it off your hand depending on the color.

So if I buy the Poker 2 version, will it work for my Poker 2 pcb?

Or, is this just for the GH60?
poker2 version is the exact verion for poker2 not for gh60, poker version is the one for gh60.
Quote from: stancato9 on Sat, 07 December 2013, 23:27:52
what's the meaning?
How long do we have to order?

Quote from imsto saying the Poker 2 is the exact version for the Poker 2 ^

I find this very misleading considering I now have to remove LEDs for the plate to fit. Imsto what's the deal with this?

Also by the logic that a "Poker 2" plate was for a poker 2, I assumed the "Pure" plate would be for the pure.

But no^ I'm going to keep them, I would just like to hear what imsto has to say about this. I ordered these plates when I had little knowledge about keyboards, going by imstos word that the Poker 2 plate is compatible with it.

Edit: How would the caps lock LED work on a pure / poker 2 if you were to desolder the original LED and add one to the switch. Would it always stay on?

WinterIsle · « **Reply #171 on:** Sun, 02 March 2014, 01:56:04 »

@stancato9
For Poker2,
If you solder led on the switch, it will light up when u enable backlit system by pressing FN+V.
If u solder on the led hole besides the capslock, it will light up for indicating capslock are on/off.

Yeah. I did that and now I have no visual indication of when caps lock is on. Which is really crappy.

It's kind of obvious as soon as you type anything.

But sure, it's a flaw in the design that some LEDs are not possible to fit. Caps if any should be as that's one of the few that has the necessary cutout:

Pexon's ongoing group buy is for a low profile case. Extras have been popping up randomly as people cancel last minute (he just started invoicing), so of you camp the thread you might be able to grab one at the pretty-awesome GB price of $60 + shipping.

The Pexon/Vortex case looks like a metal cast version of the standard plastic case. I wouldn't call that low-profile. Low-profile to me would be the Tex 60% or the Pure LE.
