IkEY FT-88-911-TP USB Mountable Backlit Keyboard Integrated Touchpad & Adapter



They're going for about what you would expect from some sort of refurb/used/surplus TG3 cop keyboard, but they have some additional keys, including a Windows key. They're designed for mounting, just like TG3's boards, and they seem to boast the same sort of dust and waterproofing.

iKey's specs on the switch are basically as descriptive as possible without really saying much of anything definitive about switch type:

MATERIAL: ABS Polycarbonate plastic
LIFE: Greater than 10 million cycles
TRAVEL: 0.120 in. (3.0mm)
ACTUATION FORCE: 2.20 oz +/- 0.18 oz (62.39g +/- 5g)
FEEDBACK: Tactile with mechanical snap

A mere 10 million cycles maybe suggests regular rubber domes? Does anybody happen to know for sure? I'm pretty sure "ABS Polycarbonate" doesn't even make sense, as they're separate types of plastic, unless maybe one is shot into the other for some reason?

Interestingly, the product page also seems to suggest that a mere cable swap can enable this board to work through either two ps/2 connectors, or a usb connector.

Interesting. Wonder what kind of keycaps those are. And what "Tactile with mechanical snap" means.

Edit: looks like they're on Ebay for cheap https://www.ebay.com/itm/IkEY-FT-88-911-TP-USB-Mountable-Backlit-Keyboard-Integrated-Touchpad-Adapter/283765642462

I could have been more specific, but I believe I linked to the same auction in the first post. That was the point of the thread. You can snag them for about the same as you can usually get a TG3, but they have some more useful keys. I'm really hoping somebody on here has one and knows what the heck is inside of them. It would certainly be nice to know more about the caps as well, agreed.

I'm typing on a heavily modified TG3 cop keyboard at this very moment.
