Hello everyone,
There are some things that need to be clarified:
1. Metal plate mount options only "Black" not white. Regardless of the case color you chose.
2. Everyone concerned about this board whether can be programmed, unfortunately it can't. So far, it is just a numeric keypad. But it can be upgraded in the future. We are currently developing a software editing kit that is expected to launch in Q3 2017.
3. For 2 different cutout usb ports in the case, one for normal keypad use (connect with your PC), the other is for our future products.
Here is CNC machined color for option:

Happy New Year!

VortexThanks for the pics, they all look wonderful. So switch plates will be only black and will not match case color, correct?

VortexWhat about those holes above the switches. Do they support RGB LEDs as the manual suggests? and if so, what kind of LEDs? Thank you for the updated info!

VortexHi Vortex, It is a new drop. Will you please clarify if the plate will once again be black even though MD is once again showing it in silver? Would you please have your good friends at Ducky let us know where to get the LEDs for this product? Or even have MD offer a new drop with 25 of the LEDs? Or even better, have Ducky solder them on when they bake the PCB? Thanks!
