Topre Uniform 30g
« on: Wed, 23 November 2011, 14:40:29 »
Does anyone know of any full size topres with uniform 30g keys that isn't a japanese board? All I've managed to find are the SJ38C0 and LA0200 which are both 106+ and have kana keys. Looking to replace my Cherry G80-3494 that has red switches as I have a slight obsession with keys that require almost no force to decompress.

They're all Japanese layout.  I was considering modding an ANSI one to 30g but got talked out of it.

Sounds like a very expensive endeavor although I'd be interested in the end-product. Too bad the japanese layout is so different from the american one with the tiny space bar, large enter key, and tiny backspace key.

Yeah, don't think I could get used to it.

One actually does exist.

The YG1300 can be confirmed as the only uniform Realforce (no modding required).

Control F "Uniform 30g", and you'll find it's true.

I'm fairly certain Dorkvader has a full size ANSI 30g Realforce.  I think his is a limited edition though that would be hard to obtain today.

I had the japanese limited edition one and it was interesting. 30g topre is a lot more mushy and it's VERY light. Resting your fingers even slightly on the key would make it bottom out.

I think it would feel sluggish as well, as when I switch from mx to Topre it takes me a couple minutes to get used to it.
