Help needed: "Tab" Keypad

[Quardah]

Hello!

I recall this week i have stumbled upon a 6 rows numpad with additional keys like "Tab". Since i am probably going to be working with a lot of Excel files, Forms and numerical-only related macro, i am strongly reconsidering the numpad...

But i just can't refind it :'[

So yea if you guys could show me some nice 6 rows numpad (or a 5 rows whatever) that implies a "Tab" key, that would be great. If it could be USB interface as well would be nice.

Many thanks eh, hope you know what i'm talking aboot.

GH36 pad?

The first thing that popped into my head was the Realforce 23u/23ub. Good luck finding one though  )

Looks like the Leopold numpad has the additional row too, as well as the Filco.

Goldtouch/Kinesis numpad have tab and are often readily available on ebay for low prices. G80-3700 can have a tab if you program it so. Fully programmable genovation might be something as well if there happens to be any up for a good price.

Yea i've seen this but it's not what i was talking about. It looks nice tough.

Yea it was either the Filco or Leopold one but looking at this image it's what i was looking for.

What's the difference between 23u and 23ub?

Are they all mechanical? The Kinesis one doesn't look mechanical on pictures but i don't know lol.

THANKS FOR YOU GUYS I FOUND MANY NICE NUMPADS NOW IMMA CHECK WHICH ONE SUITS ME BEST

I believe i'll be watching for a goldtouch; the FN layer AND the double zeros simply kills the other options. Is it available with MX switches? Like any MX switches?

23u and 23ub are topre numpads.  The b is the black version which is usually rarer and therefore more expensive.

Yeah all I listed have MX. Pretty sure Kinesis come with brown, Goldtouch with brown or black, 3700 usually black but brown and clear exist also, Genovation have MX and Alps models depending on age... but also some rubber so watch it though it's not hard to pick them out as they look really cheap.

Some Genovation use fake MX: be careful abut which ones you get. The few that I ended up with were all extremely terrible. The stems are close to mx clear in colour, but are faking an MX blue in design. Some of the worst mechanical switches I have used.

Cool!

Cool Cool Cool! Glod to know i can get pretty much any info in less than 3 hours in here  That's the cool thing about being part of the cool kid club.

So yeah i'll be going with the Goldtouch, gonna give it a try, getting the black one. Can i do a short Price check in here? What do you guys (Especially Ivan i know you know that stuff a lot) would you believe a black GoldTouch numpad would be worth?

Also how do i know what MX they have? Do they have different model numbers?

Merci encore vraiment, c'est très apprécié de votre part les gars!

Kinesis has a numpad like that.  I have one but currently only have It on display.  You can find them on classifieds for maybe 20 bucks.  30 if you're in a rush.

MX browns stock but I swapped to 62g lubed clears

KC 22 as well

Some old keyboards have one:

I have one of those, but haven't done anything to it yet.

I've asked a little question above which is still not answered :

Also how do i know what MX they have? Do they have different model numbers?

Thanks again!

I wouldn't pay more than $30 for one, and they usually have browns by default but I have seen black also. There was no indication as they had identical model number. More often you can find them for $5-20 shipped on ebay.
I've never seen genovation with aristotle switch, only seen those on crappy scorpious/adesso/whatever branded iOne numpads.

Ok well that's perfect, i expected to get some browns. I really got used to the tactile bumb, especially the brown one is really small so it would feel very good!

That way i won't miss the browns when upgrading my Poker II to clears yay

And 5$ for a mechanical input device is one crazy deal!
