This thing finally got so old that I replaced it. It lasted for an estimated 200 million keystrokes, without ever giving me any problems, but I was wearing through the keycaps and wanted to try something new.
So now I’m using one of these:
Very nice :+1:
It sure looks nice, but you only know for sure after a million keystrokes 
give or take.
As for myself, I always was very fond of the classic IBM keyboards. It had a typical mechanical click, almost like pushing in the shutter of an analog foto camera (dare I say gun trigger?)
I still do have one mechanical keyboard from 1998.
Got passed down from my father to me.
Multigenerational keyboard still working 
On a more positive note, It took Newport News Shipbuilding less time to build (and commission) the first ship in a class of entirely new aircraft carriers (Essex) than it has taken to put together this flashlight. Way to go Newport News Shipbuilding!

Good thing the FW3A is just a flashlight. Right?
Flashlight are way more complicated than Ships. But good job anyway.
I still have a couple old buckling-spring keyboards, but they’re pretty much never found in the 65% form factor I like. So I have newer keyboards with MX-style switches.
According to my logs, this new one already has about 5 million keypresses on it.
I’m tempted to look for one with Kaihua Copper switches though, instead of the Hako True switches I’m using now. It’s a lighter touch, more tactile, and less spongey toward the bottom. Or maybe I’ll just finally get a key switch tester board to try a wider range, and find a keyboard with hot-swappable switches. I happen to know a guy who is making one, and it runs open-source firmware, and I’ve already added stuff to that firmware…
There’s more than one rabbit hole to fall into. 
One for me. Thank you
Hey! Leave my rabbit hole alone! Barely room for me in there and I NEED my rabbit hole!

Lance_Hardrod would like 2 of these lights.
Great stage name.
Please drop me from the list #963 Thank you! Good luck to all!
In 1941.
The current construction schedule isn’t quite as tight.
That’s a nice mecha.
What brand & model is that?

Once again, I’m confused by your posts.
I have the impression his wallet thinner detector broke loose while seeing that keyboard.
These types of keyboards do sell for a pretty penny.
It’s called a WhiteFox. It’s one of very few models I’ve found with the HHK+arrows layout (HHK = Happy Hacking Keyboard). I have the keys on mine rearranged a bit compared to the picture, but it’s still reasonably close.
If I get another any time soon, it’ll be similar but with a split space bar, RGB lighting per key, hot-swappable switches, and cleaner firmware. I made a physics simulation of a swimming pool which responds to keypresses and splashes colors around as if each key stroke is someone dropping a bowling ball into the pool. It’s totally unnecessary, but it also makes typing really satisfying. Did I mention I like shiny things?
