Deck Keyboard Tech Specs

 


11 reasons why we are better than them.

1. Lighting: All keyboard characters are INDIVIDUALLY backlit by single L.E.D.'s. Each and every key, NOT just the frame and gaps in between.

2. The L.E.Ds: Deck™s lights are rated at 200,000 hours of life. That's pushing 22 years if the Deck™ is never turned off. It has seven different intensity levels and full brightness is tweaked to 5.25 milliamps.

3. Bottom Pan: Industrial diamond plate metal. Not just mere plastic.1

4. Connection/Interface: USB 1.1; Type A plug. No separate cord, Déck is powered by your PC.

5. MTBF (mean time before failure): 86,000 hrs.

6. Switches: Will absorb near 20 years of heavy use. Deck™ is constructed with 50-million cycle switches and gold cross point key switches. Putting it into perspective, the keyboard you are using right now is most likely using 1 million cycle and no gold.

7. Board: The FR4 (fiberglass printed circuit board material) is built for strength, reparability and straightness. We reinforced the double-sided plate through holes with a black solder mask.

8. Op Temp: Deck™s operate smoothly from minus 40°C to plus 70°C. So you're safe in both Antarctica and Death Valley. You never know, you know?

9. Key Caps: Characters can't chip off the key caps or wear down to oblivion. Period. Deck™ uses a sublimated negative printing process which drives the ink into the plastic keycaps at 525°f. This means permanent printing from the inside out, not on.

10. Add ons: Deck™s ship with an extra skull & crossbones key cap, setting the stage for your mod.

11. Typing Rate: Type up to 240 characters per second! Go that fast and still get the codes out in the right sequence. You cannot type this fast. Ever.
