FYI, this has the FR-4 PCB. The IC controller is Cypress.

Is this somehow different from other Archiss/Leopold boards or do they all use FR-4 PCB and Cypress controller?

[keyboardlover]

That I don't know for sure, but I don't believe they all do. I just know the specifics of this particular board because the designer told me.

Would you plant an idea of Bluetooth model (with detachable cable providing USB/PS2 connection and charging batteries) into his mind next time you have a chat? Thanks.

do reds require a lighter press than all of the other cherry switch types or just black ones?

[keyboardlover]

I would say they are the lightest I know of. Lighter than browns.

datacomp made these keyboards?

[sixty]

Should be.

[neo]

And who manufactures Archiss/Leopold tenkeyless? Datacomp or Strongman?
