Yea. I have one LK201 that I fried the controller board on by connecting
12V to the wrong lead and popping a few components off the board... I've
replaced the exploded ones and it still doesn't work :( Would be cool to be
able to use it again...

However, if it

the
keyboard and they are not easily repairable for
one reason or another, I
may
be interested in a drop in replacement for the
original electronics.
Since that wasn't my scenario I haven't tried to do that. It seems easy
enough. The main issue is that you need a controller with enough I/O lines
to run the scan. A BeagleBone would be ample; an Arduino might not be.
