Pros & Cons
Pros
Has hot swap switches and nice pbt keycaps. The feel of the default keys and switches is fine. The only small caveat is that i think i'd prefer a cherry profile.
Epomaker's numpad is compatible with gateron optical switches. I work from home on my gaming rig so i need my peripherals to be able to handle both.
If you have an epomaker compact keyboard and need a ten-key pad this is a 'no-brainer' imho. I prefer brown for general typing, but for numeric entry, the blue's extra resistance is great.
Epomaker makes a great, fully customizable product. Works great for laptops on the go. Good product, very satisfy with it and works well.
The amount of customizing that can be done makes this numpad my top choice for someone who isn't wanting to spend too much right away but wants something they can customize later. It's weighty and very stable.
Highlights
Quality
The quality is great and it works perfectly.
Epomaker makes a great, fully customizable product.
If there are any significant faults with the feel of the pad right now, it’s the incline of the entire board (which cannot be adjusted).
Price
The price is amazing and matches a lot of different keyboards, include the really high end ones.
Shipping
They responded fast and gave me options for a solution.
Packaging/appearance
I've swapped out the keycaps to match my build and downloaded the software that was linked in one of the q&a answers.
I also love that the keycap markings are clean, with no special functions marked.
Competitiveness
I run a tkl keyboard and have this on the left side.
If you have an epomaker compact keyboard and need a ten-key pad this is a 'no-brainer' imho.
Led colorway does not exactly match the th80 keyboard.
After placement of my own lubed and filmed switches and holey modding the stabs, the board manages to sound like a much more expensive one.
