double shots?
I grabbed this, thanks for posting it. I've been looking for a keypad that was normal sized (most keypads seem to add an extra row) and cheap. This checked both these boxes. Now I just have to decide how to hack this to work with my computer.

It looks like it DOES use Cherry switches. It says tactile, so I'm guessing it uses MX Brown.
Got this in today. Turns out the switch type is white alps (clicky). And the keycaps are pad printed. So pretty disappointed.
But I might still use it. I did want a clicky 4x5 keypad. So even if it isn't exactly what I was hoping for it might still get some use.
There are a lot of interesting keycaps available for Alps, if you want to update the look a bit. And I believe you can swap Matias switches in for Alps, their quiet click versions are pretty sweet (and cheap). Of course, you can also mod clicky Alps switches to non-clicky (linear) versions.

Who sells alps keycaps? I took a quick look around and all I saw was Signature Plastics selling a red esc key.

It's actually pretty yellowed. It's hard to tell from one photo but compare the top picture to the bottom. It's supposed to be the same color all the way around.
They keycaps are sadly not double-shot they are pad printed. But they don't really show any sign of wear other than some yellowing.
