I have both a Noppoo Choc Mini (brown) and KBT PURE (red). For the Noppoo Choc mini i have the white one with PBT keycaps. It just feels great quality for very reasonable price. I love the Noppoo and use it almost everyday on my work. For the KBT PURE i got dissapointed. One of the switches was not ...

What if you pull the keys off and take a look at the LED? Isn't it about the same level as the other ones. The lettering on the caps and the position of the LED (bottom of the switch) tricks the eye. At least if i'm looking at the keyboard. I guess you think that the side-printet keys are brighter t...

Shipping condition was very good though :) So it was just a faulty soldering on this particular switch.

I should have taken some photos when the keyboard was seperated.

Okay i actually just desoldered the whole switch. And guess what. One of the pins was bend as metafour suggested - so thanks for the tip :) The switch works like charm now, and really - That LED is so hard to get out. I even had a soaker to to soak the iron of the pins. It actually requires very muc...

#metafour

Keyboardco.com just got Filco TKL with red switches in stock in both ANSI and ISO.
I would recommend either Filco or CM Storm Quickfire Rapid Red (almost similar quality).

What layout and price are you looking at?

Still, no answer from Mechanicalkeyboard.com. Don't know if they just avoid cases like this. If they do, i can never recommend buying keyboards at their site. Actually got really disappointed about the build quality of the KBT Pure. My Noppoo Choc Mini is of better quality, and Filco feels WAY bette...

I have sent Mechanicalkeyboards.com a mail about the problem. I just wait for an answer.

I really hope they pay the transport, otherwise it's really not worth it to RMA :(

I tried your solutions guys, and when i desolder the iron, it seems like one of the pins to the cherry switch itself is missing or something? If im looking closely to the other switches i can see the little pins sticking out just through the solder, but not on this particular switch. Then i took a s...

KBT PURE ~ and ` not working

Hello, I just recieved my KBT PURE keyboard and so far its great. But i have a problem that the ~ and ` key right to the RSHIFT is not working. - At least i can't get it working.
