Any idea what board/switch this is?
« on: Sat, 26 November 2011, 17:25:16 »
I found this board any idea if it is any good? What switch is that, it looks alpish but has a spring on the outside. Seller said that it clicks when he/she presses it. I cannot reply to this thread because GH is broken for me and I can make post and pm people but the message box never loads to respond to threads. Thanks in advanced.

In the pictures, it looks a lot like a keyboard I have, which has fake clicky Cherry MX switches with white stems. Rumour has it that these clones were made in Taiwan.
My keyboard has a rubber sheet inside to make it waterproof, but I think that it was modified, with the sheet being in place of a metal plate that the keyboard seems to have been designed for but does not have. The keyboard also came with a clear plastic cover, similar to the one in your pic.

I have seen similar keyboards for sale on ebay.co.uk a few times.
I have heard that similar-looking keyboards exist with ALPS also.

It will be very helpful if you remove a keycap.
