Any info about this Viglen ?

(1/2) > >>

Lenny_Nero:
I have been using this Viglen for quite a few years and have yet to see another with the close set (but standard layout) keys, any help.
It has white Alps which I think are the bigfoot type, its a while since I pulled the one that fly's apart when doing so and got a good look inside as I rebuilt it.

Model Number DFK2020UKF104

that looks like it's a tight fit with the numpad

Pretty cool.  Looks like it has the same size enter and secondary keys as a siig minitouch, but full size. huh.  Also has a place for a buzzer and other stuff, really cool.

Acer/Viglen 'boards have used mechanical on membrane switches in the past that looked like Alps switches but weren't:

Yours look different though. Maybe open the board and see what you find (pcb or membrane).

Acers have the same stem, but the body of the switch is completely different, you can tell what they are right off.  That photo is pretty dim, but looks like alps as far as I can see...  Of course the only way to be sure is to pull one apart, which he should do to see what kind of alps switch it is anyway.
