Numpad options? (Cherry switch if possible)
« on: Sat, 07 November 2015, 19:42:23 »
I have been looking for a Numpad with Cherry switches without no avail.

I would build my own preferably using Zeal switches or a different switch, but seeing as to how I don't know how to solder I don't want to mess anything up.

That said, anyone know options regarding Cherry Mx switched numpads?

Goldtouch I believe is the most common numpad also.

if you decide to go with the Leopold FC210TP, then i would make sure if it sends 'proper' keycodes.
because some versions send out the proper numpad-codes, while others send out 'normal number' codes.

I stumbled into a Goldtouch numpad at the recycling centre a while ago, it was a nice piece of kit :) .

I got this Adesso a few years ago and sent it back:


http://www.amazon.com/ADESSO-AKP-220B-Adesso-Mechanical-Numeric/dp/B0038KN3YY/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1446952253&sr=8-1&keywords=ADESSO+numpad


It has a funky key layout. In fact, my review is still the top review hahaha. November 5th, 2012. Point is, not all numpads have the same layout so be sure to check out the pictures.


I ended up buying a RF 23U and have no regrets. And it does send the correct key codes.

You can also have Hojin at winkeyless build you a custom b.pad. won't be cheap for everything soldered though.
