Title: Phantom keypresses on Leopold FC660C
Post by: Rad Lad on Thu, 28 April 2016, 04:25:15
Hi everyone!

I have recently purchased a white version of Leopold FC660C Topre KB from widebasket seller on Ebay.
I have been enjoying it for a couple of weeks, until it started to randomly register keys 7 U J N while lying still. That is, when I leave it for like 10 minutes, it will try to communicate with me with messages like this:

777777777777uuuujnjnjnnjnjnjnjjjjjjjjjjjjjjj777777777777uuuuuu777jjjjjjjjjjjnnnnnnnnjj7777

Unfortunately, Leopold's warranty does not work outside of South Korea, so my $250 lil' beauty will have to be repaired locally somehow.
Did anyone experience such issue before? Is there hope?  :(

Any help would be appreciated.
