keyboards with thick pbt key caps as stock key caps
« on: Tue, 20 May 2014, 17:11:32 »
Hello,
I'm looking to see what other keyboards use thick pbt keys besides the poker 2.  I I already have a poker 2, but was wondering what other keyboards have thick pbt keys?


What keys do the cool master tenkeyless have? 

Thanks
Does anyone have any accessories or key caps or other poker 2 related things lying around that they are not using?  I don't mind taking it off your hands if you no longer want it...

Coolermaster TKL has thin ABS.

The Ducky DK9008G2 PRO boards have thick PBT, and I think KBT ONI/ONE have them too. The duckies are dye-sublimation, the KBTs are lasered.

any gaming brand is going to have thin abs as far as I know (some are still worse than others).


ducky premier series will have thick pbt in two bicolor schemes.

i THINK the deck hassium and francium have thick DS PBT with translucent legends.

of course, there are a whole buttload of vortex sets sold separately
ALL zombros wanted:  dead or undead or dead-dead.

Pretty sure the HHKB and the RealForce boards all come with thick PBT from the factory.

Realforce EK45 (Silenced)  |  Realforce 87UW (45g)  |  Realforce 87UWS (Variable)
Filco MJ2 TKL (Cherry Clears)  |  Phantom 87 (78g Gateron Clears)  |  Phantom 86 (67g Zealios)

Certain older Cherry G80/G81 (not only S, but L as well).

There really aren't that many that come to mind aside from the Poker 2:

The non-backlit KBT Race and KBT ONI have thick PBT caps like the Poker 2.

Ducky Premier and Yellow edition have thick PBT caps. The G2Pro and 105-key PBT sets are THIN PBT, the newer 109 key sets are THICK PBT.

I think some of the Keycool 84 and 87 (and possibly 108) boards come with PBT caps, but they're medium thickness, in between Ducky thin PBT and Poker 2 thick PBT.

Certain models of Cherry G80 and G81 had thick PBT caps, some had POM.

Noppoo Choc Mini has thick POM caps.
Buying more keycaps,
it really hacks my wallet,
but I must have them.

The FC660M with thick PBT dye=sub caps is on Massdrop right now, or you can grab one from Qtan's shop.

I can't say I like the grey color of the caps though.

QTAN also has them in different colors... Blue looks cool

Are they thicker than the pad printed version? Those weren't that thin, but I wouldn't call them thick either.

They are definitely thicker than the stock pad printed keys. I think I saw that they are 1.3mm, but don't quote me on it.
