Doubleshot RGB Set
by Signature Plastics (http://www.keycapsdirect.com/) (For Cherry MX Switches)

Original Price: [strike]$28.53[/strike]
$13.00 USD / set
BAM!!! That just happened.

Keycaps received from Signature Plastics the evening of August 31st

Pictures... In my opinion, they came out great! The font size is consistent on both shift keys unlike previous runs. I'm very pleased with the job.

Product Description:

Each set consists of 6 total caps, with white doubleshot (http://geekhack.org/showwiki.php?title=All+About+Keys#Double+Shot+molded) lettering.

1 x 2.75x Green Shift (right-side)
1 x 2.25x Green Shift (left-side)
2 x 1.25x Red Control
2 x 1.25x Blue Alt

These should fit most Cherry MX keyboards such as Filco/Das/Ducky/Leopold.
Please make sure the sizes match your keyboard before ordering.
If in doubt, ask Ripster (http://geekhack.org/member.php?1574-ripster). He's the number one keyboard expert on the planet. :-p

This is a similar example to what we're ordering:
(http://cl.ly/8aJX/example.png)

Actual colors will be closer to this:
(http://aggiejy.com/geekhack/rgb_sample.png)
(aside from monitor calibration issues, etc.)

* Note that this red does indeed match what was produced for Group Buy 3, and I would presume what will be produced for Group Buy 4. Should be no clashing! :)
(And, it's a *very* nice red in person. No orangish tint.)

_________________________________________________
For archive purposes:

New Bonus Added 7/20:

(http://aggiejy.com/geekhack/glow.png)
For orders paid for before the July 25th deadline!

These will will be shaped to fit the top two rows of your keyboard. Should make a fun ESC key, ~, whatever. They may suck... we'll see. Either way, this is an extra something I'm buying since I got a slight price break over 100.

If anyone would like to purchase extra glow caps (shape of top rows only), they'll be $2 each, max qty of 8 per person. Must be purchased with an RGB set.

Shipping:

You pay shipping once, regardless of how many sets. Shipping cost includes supplies.

USPS First-Mail (Default)
Will ship in this poly bubble mailer (http://www.amazon.com/100-Bubble-Mailers-Padded-Envelopes/dp/B002RXVZAW). Only fits 3 or fewer sets. No tracking or confirmation.
You've got to ask yourself one question: Do I feel lucky? Well, do ya, punk?
If not, move to the next section you paranoid hippie.

$3 to US/Canada BAM again.
$6 to pretty much anywhere
Any customs fees, if applicable, are your responsibility.

USPS Priority
Includes delivery confirmation and ships in a small flat-rate box. Inside of that box you'll find them in ziplocks. Because that's how iMav does it. (It's worth noting that for US Shipments, USPS claims the same time range for First-Class and Priority... mainly it's just the delivery confirmation and better packaging.)

$6 to US
$15 to EU/Canada and most other places
Any customs fees, if applicable, are your responsibility.

Deadline:

Deadline for payment AND ordering is:
Monday, July 25th, 2011 at 10am CDT.
The order will be placed on the 25th or 26th.

Current Signature Plastics lead-time is 5 weeks.
(Not including shipping/materials/etc... all of our colors are currently in stock.) If we order next week, we're looking at early September delivery. But you know how group buys can go... so let's just hope for final delivery before the end of September.

FYI, I do plan on (personally) ordering some extra RGB sets to give people a chance to buy after the order is placed, being that it's a quick 1-week sale. (Probably still $13, unless I've lost money on the pre-orders.) BUT... glow-in-the-dark caps are a gift to the early-birds only. So if your funds are tight or you miss it, you may have another shot... at least until they sell out.

Payments / How To Order:

To order, you may post in this thread, PM me, email me, or just send me money. In all these cases, I'll add you to the list with the correct payment status. Just tell me your username (if you have one), how many sets, and what shipping level.

All payments must be done via PayPal. Payments should be sent to: j u s t i n @ y o u e n s dot com. If you have a positive balance by your name below, you should be either sending a payment or letting me know to update/remove your order.

Please include your USERNAME in the the PayPal payment.
Or "Anonymous" if you prefer to keep your key cap habit secret and/or you don't have/want a Geekhack account.
Make sure you include your shipping address when placing the order.

Even if you've already paid, feel free to add/remove from your order up until the cutoff time. I'll adjust your "due" amount below. (And refund if needed.)

If possible, send as a gift or include an extra 3% + $0.30 to cover your fees when paying by credit card.
(Paying from bank transfer or PayPal balance incurs no fees.) This isn't a huge deal, but these prices aren't padded to cover this.
:yo:

Do me a favor and spread the word if you like this deal!
Successful group buys lead to more group buys!

I didn't think about it either actually... But I checked on USPS site, and it's saying First Class mail is the same. So I've updated it so that $3 applies to Canada, but for Priority, EU rates apply. Hopefully I'm not wrong on this... or if so, hopefully there aren't many of you canucks. ;-)

Sorry, I accidentally put " after those suggesting inches... it's been updated to "x". It's actually measured as a multiple of a standard key. So your escape key for instance is 1x. 1.25x is the modifier keys, etc. So to answer your question though... I have no clue about a poker. They look the same, but you should confirm with someone else. I just used that picture because it was the closest example to the white legends that we're ordering.

Not at all! Perhaps I should revise the OP if that's not clear! You have one week to place your order and pay for it. The order will be sent to the factory next week. Cutoff is Monday morning.

I'm sorry, but unfortunately not. Changing plastic on a mold is basically like starting all over, and thus the price would be huge unless there was big demand. The big Group Buy 4 (by 7bit) will likely have some colored modifier key options. (Though you'll likely have to wait a bit longer since it's a large order.)

I'll be filling out a form for customs (USPS 2976 I think). I don't know what you'll have to do on your end. It shouldn't be a problem though with key caps.

RE: Cheaper shipping: Yes, I don't think there's much to worry about. (Being that they are pretty tough ABS keycaps in bubbles wrap.) The biggest difference is no delivery confirmation with First-Class mail... just like a normal letter really. But, it's a risk you take I guess. I honestly am surprised at how many people are picking priority for this. :)

And yes, they should fit a Filco just fine. I'll add you to the list.

Let's just say I think you may find a few of our beloved caps on an ebay-like Chinese website in a couple months. But hey, whatever floats your boat. No doubt someone here will not find this group buy and pay $30 for a set from China in October. I wish there were better ways to advertise. :-)

I wouldn't *expect* it per se, but you can hope for it. :) These things are just plastic pebbles in a sack right now. But, the factory is quoting 5 weeks lead-time after payment. If payment goes in next week AND they hold to that timeframe, we're looking at early/middle September. Then, they have to ship to me, I to you, etc. (I'll do my best to turn my part around QUICK.) So "September" may be more realistic. But I'll keep the OP updated with info as I get it. :)

Post by: aggiejy on Thu, 21 July 2011, 00:21:52

Yeah, basically I have an Excel file with orders. When new ones come in, I put them there... track everything there. Then I have a Ruby script that parses that out, calculates balances, does the BBCode stuff to add flags, notes, colors, etc, and just gives me a blob of text. I am however just copy/pasting that over the original message. Doesn't take long, but I guess I could automate the posting as well. But messing with authentication stuff is kind of a pain. Still only takes ~30 seconds to update it after I get an order.

What profile are these keys? Are they the same as the keys from the previous SP round 3 group buy? I didn't see that mentioned in the quick scan I did through this thread...

also, would the red coloring of the Control keys be the same as the red coloring used from that same group 3 order (I imagine the blue on the Alt keys will be darker)? example:

I was making some comparisons between the moogle kit and chery corps ctrl, alt keys and found the font to be too thin.
The shift key was closer to the cherry corps fonts. Why they would make it like this is beyond me. Here's a pic:

Is there a way for SP to match the font thickness to the shift key at least?

Yes, the same profile as the group buy 3 keys in your picture. As far as the color, you'd have to check the swatch colors for Group Buy 3. (I think it was/is in 7bits first post in that long thread) Our swatch colors are shown in the sample on the OP. The red in our case is "RR", which is the brightest they have. That photo you linked looks darker, but that may be the camera because I have those two red keys on the left and I *think* they are RR too. But check that GB3 post to make sure.

I checked into this actually. But they have their molds set up for this legend already, and so I guess we get what they have. I assume it would be possible to do something custom, but it would add some cost to the production and slow it down a tad. (and a greater chance it could be messed up since it would be a first run.)

However, SP did send me this recently in relation to this question:
(http://aggiejy.com/geekhack/sample.png)

I have no clue what sizes or colors those are, but as for legends... that's some they made with the same legend setup. (Of course, all our legends will be white.)

However, there is variation within those to my eye: The top shift looks (slightly) thinner than the bottom. Not sure if that's the photo, different runs, or what. Also it looks like the Alt/Control on the left match thickness to the bottom shift, while the alt on the right is thinner. (though being black makes it hard to compare exactly.)

Either way, I've expressed that most importantly we want a uniform thickness. The slightly ticker font looks better to me and should match more boards. But I'm not sure we get to choose that in this scenario.

The joy of group buys, you never know *exactly* what you'll get. :)

Hmm, apparently the red keys from GB3 are "RA"

just wonder if the difference is enough that they'll clash...

FYI... this is for comparison only... to my eyes in real life, these are not so bright. Depends on light I guess. They also don't look as contrasting in real life. But for what it's worth:

I have the red gamer kit supplementing the GB3 standard kit configured like shown in my sig; WASD, arrow keys, Escape (which I use "PANIC" instead :P), and an "Any Key" in place of Pause/Break. I chose red for several reasons including; to match the overall theme I have (I have red edition Silverstone FT02), the fact that red is probably my favorite color, and partially because I'm using them on keyboards with Cherry Red switches.

As awesome as these keys might end up complementing a standard keyboard, I'm just not so sure how appropriate they'll be for my compatible keyboards with their themes. My 6Gv2 is no good because of its bum right Shift key and they'd be too out of place on my BlackWidow.

So really there remains only one option - I obviously need more keyboards.

RA seems to be more red, whereas RR looks to be slightly orange. even in the fist pic of the poker they look orangish.

If i were you, i'd just change it to RA for the fact that it matches the gamerkits.

Who would be mad about this change? You could probably change it and not tell anyone an know one would have known otherwise :)

Yeah, shades of red are hard to judge without equal white balance. But yeah, the one in your pic does look a bit more orange. Even more so than RR. There are several shades of red from SP, and RR and RA are next to each other. Like I said, I think the photo makes them look a lot different than they do in real life. :)

if its anything like the WASD keys that came with my Filco then they are definitely different, the red is duller and lighter. Granted, in average home/working lighting conditions the biggest first glance difference won't be the colors of the keys, it'll be the lettering (black on red vs. white on red).

If you want a closer match SP does stock and sell individual red escape keys with the choice of white or black lettering for $1.50 + S&H: http://www.keycapsdirect.com/redesc.php

Like bojinglebells said, you could order those from SP, though I'm not sure which of their reds those are. (You may shoot an email and ask, these are "RA".)

Or, in group buy 4 (one day) you can order a whole mess of red escape keys with various things on them. They should match. :)

Argh, looks like I missed the deadline by 5 days. Aggiejy, I'm not sure how you're handling the Second Chance orders but if you're doing a waiting list I'd like to get 2 sets please.

BTW, I was looking over this thread and saw the picture from post #132 of the shift keys with the different font thickness and I just looked at my shift keys from double-shot group buy #1 (also from SP). They look the same, the left shift (shorter one) has a thicker font than the right shift. In fact, the lines of the arrow on the left shift are also thicker than the arrow of the right shift. So I think those keys in that picture used the same molds as GB1.

Post by: aggiejy on Sat, 30 July 2011, 10:57:16

Yeah, I have a sneaking suspicion that we'll end up with the slightly different shift key legends as well. Though, I asked about that picture in #132 and she specifically said: "Rest assured your Shift keys will be the same line thickness." But if they aren't, it's not worth sending them back (if they would even take them). But it will be frustrating for sure.

Hey, due to some circumstances, I don't need the RGB set + glowcap, and I wanted to know if anyone wanted to be included in the first round of shipping. I'm #1084 on the official order list.

If you want to get the RGB set + glowcap (1 set) in the first round of shipping. I paid $19USD for one set (plus glowcap) + priority shipping. If anyone wants to take that spot over, message/PM me.

Oh, too late :(

Sure beats too-tight caps. I had stabilizers pulled out of PCB's and switches come apart when pulling tight keycaps before. I wonder if there's a way to untighten keycaps, some kind of tool to open up keycaps that are hard to push on the stems so they are safer to install/remove.

Super fast shipping to FL.

Couple of questions as I'm pretty new to all of this:

1. The only mechanical kb I have is a filco brown tkl (with ninja printed keycaps). The RGB set actually has a lower profile than the ninja keycaps. The front is just a tad lower, but the back is a good amount lower so the angle of the keycap is quite different. Is that the same with the RGB set vs all keycaps except Cherry corp (filco, leopold, ducky, das, etc)?

2. The left shift (shorter) has the white plastic everywhere underneath the cap, but the right shift (longer) only has the white plastic underneath the right 1/4 of the keycap (just underneath where "Shift" is printed). Is this normal or some type of defect?

Thanks again!

Thank you aggiejy for organizing an excellent group buy. You're a pro! I loved your mailing labels too, having a color keycap design with RGB on it :-)

Here are mine, the glow cap is fun to use with backlighting, I put it as my Poker's escape. The LEDs on the Poker are strong enough to "charge" the phosphor in the keycap, so it glows for a few seconds after you turn the LED off.

[ATTACH=CONFIG]25855[/ATTACH]

The other caps are from WASDkeyboards, I'm using the yellow dome keys for FN.

Here's a photo demonstrating the glowing keycap (LED turned off this time):

[ATTACH=CONFIG]25854[/ATTACH]

EDIT: Forgot to mention, the red doubleshots are the reddest red I've ever seen. PERFECT! My pics don't do it justice. Anyway, good thing the color got changed while this was being organized, it's awesome.

Haha, I chose the dome for "tactile" identification of the Poker FN keys without looking.
Probably need to replace the Menu key with an Orange blank, and the Enter and \| with white and blue for symmetry.

Did they really use BFN? The color tabs you have posted look spot on with the red and green but the final blue color looks at least a few shades lighter. BFN, in your picture, looks almost perfect compared to the real deal.

[ATTACH=CONFIG]25987[/ATTACH]

It is certainly more of a baby blue. I just went with the colors noodles256 picked originally, except to adjust the red to match round 3 group buy reds.

But regardless, I was a bit surprised at how light it was. It depends on lighting, but to me it looks quite a bit lighter than in this picture even. That's not to say I don't like it though... I like the colors personally. But that's subjective, and depends on if you're trying to match some other keys.

It's normal. Sometimes I can get stuff from New Jersey in a week, sometimes two weeks. When a Canadian goes through the border into Canada, the border people are usually good and you're on your way real quick; send a package across the border and they'll hold it up for up to 5 days in my experience.

hey how do you like your PLU87?
how does the build quality compares with the Noppoo Choc Mini or any of the Leopolds and Filcos?

Thanks!

Title: FINAL: Doubleshot RGB Set from SP - SOLD OUT
Post by: startacked on Sat, 17 September 2011, 15:36:35

I'm actually not using my PLU ML-78 with blue switches anymore. I like the MX browns on my Filco better.
Build quality is fine. It's pretty heavy, feels solid with no flex. I also have a Filco 104 (browns) and a Steelseries 7G (blacks) and all are build equally well. Caps are not better or worse than those on the Filco. The cable on the PLU is a little bit thicker but the spacebar, shifts, enter and backspace on the PLU rattles more and don't sound as nice. I will try to get some grease and see if that helps. The PLU is a nice board and I like the white version.

Thanks. For some reason, my favorite board is the Choc Mini reds. I prefer this one over my Leopold reds because it sounds and feels to my taste. It's weird because they're both plate mounted and they're both cherry reds but the Noppoo just feels so much better imo.

Has it to do with the fact that the Noppoo has much ticker caps? I like the layout of the Choc mini and I have seen a white version on eBay. I hope a white one with MX reds will be released.

There's a white Noppoo Choc mini?! I've never seen that before but it they do release one with cherry reds I might have to jump on it. I swapped the POM keys out from the Noppoo to WASD blank white ones. So the picture I posted before is not they way it is now. I'll take a picture and upload it soon

Bummer. I haven't gotten any packaged sent back, so hopefully it's just caught up on the way. Sadly USPS tracking seems to end at Chicago for international shipments. Even for those reported delivered, it still never updated the tracking. Not sure why some countries work quickly and some don't. I guess customs differences?

Either way, let me know if/when they arrive. I'm assuming they'll eventually make their way to you or back to me. (Hopefully!)

In contrast to the other colors the Alt blue seems quite a bit too light IMO. Consider this a special limited edition RGB modifier set, different from all the rest. Click-MX blue... (?)

Mine's partially filled with linear green Alps for testing in gaming, but the Fn key placement is holding it back from being fully populated with greens and used for a full gaming board. With complicated blues, it's a great travel board!

Yes, but the ISO left shift only sports the up arrow (not enough space for the "Shift" text legend), so I don't think the difference is going to be hard on the eye at all.
