Title: SA or DSA keycaps which have function keys up to F24 / CMD24 / PF24?
Post by: cheater on Wed, 23 December 2020, 14:57:57

Looking to outfit a nice little (ok -- not-so-little) keyboard with a set of SA keycaps, but this is one sticking point. If worse comes to worst I'll have to have two rows of F1-F12, in different colors, but that's less desirable.

They are not SA, but right now you can get the custom /dev/tty MT3 set from Drop and the Extras have F13-F24 : https://drop.com/buy/drop-matt3o-devtty-custom-keycap-set?mode=guest_open&utm_campaign=Drop%3A%20Request%20Launched&utm_source=SparkPost&utm_medium=email&utm_term=Drop%3A%20Request%20Launched&utm_content=1608056085686.196010996757508887735270&referer=6J8BD2#imagecarousel (https://drop.com/buy/drop-matt3o-devtty-custom-keycap-set?mode=guest_open&utm_campaign=Drop%3A%20Request%20Launched&utm_source=SparkPost&utm_medium=email&utm_term=Drop%3A%20Request%20Launched&utm_content=1608056085686.196010996757508887735270&referer=6J8BD2#imagecarousel)

Oh snap, I didn't realize that. I wish the Susuwatari had F13-F24 too. I've had an eye out for MT3 for a while though. I might pick that up, but I'm still looking for something that'll go with a mostly black/dark keycap set, eg something with white text on black, or white text on red, or generally bright text on a dark color or on gray or on a very intense color (red, yellow, ...).

By the way, have you bought those or similar ones before? If so, how was the quality?

I have a set of the regular /dev/tty and and a set of Suswatari. Personally, I like the /dev/Tty a bit better. It feels like the ABS keys are not as grippy. Both sets worked for me out of the box. I have a set of the Custom /dev/TTy on order to finish off my second Boston build. Here is my first one using Susuwatari:

The extra keys are some row 1 SA keys from Pimpmykeyboard

Here is my original test mule in /dev/TTY:

SA Nuclear Data has a macro M1-M12 set that could serve that purpose

i've also noticed some of the FM Towns keyboards have a bunch of PF keys, which is cool, but they only go up to 20, and not 24
