Found Old Keyboard Sejin Electron Made in Korea
« on: Sun, 28 April 2013, 11:49:22 »
okay, I found this keyboard this morning in my church's recyle bin.

It looked interesting so I put it away for next Sunday to see if its worth anything, and took a couple of pics and wrote down some info.

I have no idea if it works or not. The Big enter keys seems to be a bit stiff though, maybe sticky with something.

Makes a nice clicky sound, and very tactile. Very easy to press as well.

on the back is written Sejin Eletron Inc.

Model EAT-1010

Its yellowed but keycaps looks good, seem to be double shots. Look like Cherry stem. so from some googling i'm taking a guess for them to be Futaba clicky switches.

here are some just plain AWFUL cell pics ;)

The other keyboard in their an old logitech with missing keys, awful rubber dome.

So should I pick it up next week, or put it back in the bin?

Definatly snatch it up because even if you end up not liking it im sure there will be some keyboard enthusiast willing to buy it/ wanting to try it out

Plus im pretty sure throwing away mechanical keyboards is sin

I don't dumpster dive, I just passed this one by while I was throwing something in the trash!

and thought it looked interesting.

still not sure i'm going to pick it up though.

as i'm not sure it still works.

Wonder if the keycaps will work on Cherry MX since they look similar.

I think the keycaps are "inside-out" Cherries.

Do take it for a test drive, you may really like it. I have a board that I think I could love, but it has a few dead keys.

I saw someone light a model M on fire once... he'll be burning the same way soon.

Hmm from the lack of responses...

Looks like this not good of a find.

I'm probably just going to put it back in the bin next week!
