Bulgarian Black Alps

[getf]

hello GH I am a long time lurker here

Wanted to display my Bulgarian Cyrillic Clicker Keyboard with Black ALPS, this is my first keyboard with ALPS.

Interesting note this is not a true mechanical keyboard as there is a membrane that the mechanical spring and slider sit on top of instead of a printed circuit board.  Double shot modifiers are a very nice addition to the extremely high quality pad printing on the Cyrillic legends.






also the Return key has two stabilizer bars and is very difficult to remove and install


Thanks for looking happy clacking

IIRC those are Tai Hao alps clones. Those Clicker boards with cyrillic caps seem to pop up all the time. Nice switch though

What do those switches feel like?

What do those switches feel like?

Sort of a mid-weight clicky. Somewhat high actuation. The sliders themselves are a solid mm or 2 higher than your average ALPS stem

What do those switches feel like?

They have both a bump and a click feeling on keypress.  This is due to a single narrow and single wide copper leaf in the switch housing. 

Here is a photo that kind of shows that:

Like hwood34 said they have a medium weight feel as well.

I think its possible to remove one of the leaves in each switch so you can eliminate the click sound.

Cool! Thanks for sharing

Those aren't black Alps for sure, it's a spring-over-membrane system with Alps mount sliders. Look quite comparable to Acer switches.
