Title: Cases that a QFR TKL will fit in?
Post by: Wulfre on Sat, 23 January 2016, 15:50:46

I've read that a QFR PCB might fit inside a case made for a Filco or Phantom, but I want to know if anyone has actually tried it.

I've actually heard the converse, in which a Phantom PCB would fit in a QFR or a Filco Majestouch.

Would I be able to assume that if the Phantom can fit in a QFR / Filco then the QFR could fit in a Filco? Or does that not apply in this situation.

I think the ONI tkl from mechkeyboard can fit the qfr
They will restock it soon

I doubt this

I haven't came across a qfr inside an ONI but I might be wrong

worst case, you've to mod the case to fit it in
modding plastic base case like filco to fit a QFR pcb/plate is easier than modding an aluminium case

I have a Quickfire Rapid that's inside a black Filco/ONI TKL aluminum case from Tex. It's a little tight, but it definitely fits.

Now this confirms it

I owned an ONI case, but I can't handle the angle, not steep enough. Something you should watch if you wanna buy one
