Title: Low-profile PBT set like Das Professional 4
Post by: neiru37 on Sun, 23 November 2014, 21:04:29

Anyone know of where I can find a low-profile PBT keycap set like the one on the Das Professional 4?

My goal is to have the smallest thinnest keyboard I can get, so a nice low-profile keycap set would be ideal to reach it.

The features I'm looking for are, in order:
1. Low profile
2. PBT
3. Supports backlight

So the features I'm willing to give up on are that in reverse order.

And while we're in the topic, anyone know where I can get a low-profile case for the Race 2? Ideally acrylic like the TEX Acrylic case that was on recently on massdrop.

Thanks for any information!

Well, I'm not sure about DCS or Cherry low profile PBT, but there's also the option for DSA. As for the case, there will be a wait but Sprits doing a GB right now with cases and PCBs and you can get really low profile cases there
