Keycaps advice
« on: Sat, 21 May 2011, 05:08:14 »
Hi,


This is my first post. I would like to have your advice in regards this.

I have a FLICO Majestouch 2 and I have been looking for keycaps a reasonable price (including shipping to Australia). I found that aliexpress has reasonable price including shipping.

BTW Thx for sharing your knowledge and experience    

UPDATE:

I found the answer already http://geekhack.org/showwiki.php?title=Island:17988&highlight=kforce  :-)

Thx

I am also curious what other people's favorite keycaps are. Are they one size fits all? Or are they switch/brand dependent?

Well, $15 is $15 but I still like the look of Filcos better.  That Logitech decal look bugs me.

But at least the UV/Hardcoat decal coating means finger sweat will stain the keys less than Leopolds/Ducky/Noppoos (oh wait, Noppoos ship stained).

Or KBC PBTs
 But that cost me $75.  Kinda crazy.

I wish Majestouch had found a good source of Double Shots.

Welcome to GH OP, I'm also after non printed blank keycaps, I'm thinking about PBT red/black coloreds but idk where would be the cheapest/best place to get them and have them shipped to South America(where I live), if so, I'll let you know, GL!
