Post Your White LED Backlit Keyboards!
« on: Sun, 05 October 2014, 20:14:23 »
Just trying to find custom boards that have white backlit LEDs.

Colours are super popular, but I think white looks nice too, just can't find any pictures of it!

My Ducky Mini. You can see the white LEDs on the white caps much easier than in the picture, not the best photographer^^

I'm wondering whether this should be in the media section?
"Because keyboards are accessories to PC makers, they focus on minimizing the manufacturing costs. But that’s incorrect. It’s in HHKB’s slogan, but when America’s cowboys were in the middle of a trip and their horse died, they would leave the horse there. But even if they were in the middle of a desert, they would take their saddle with them. The horse was a consumable good, but the saddle was an interface that their bodies had gotten used to. In the same vein, PCs are consumable goods, while keyboards are important interfaces." - Eiiti Wada

Oh, that would be more fitting, if some mods could move it.

I just figured that backlights are DIY modded a lot of the times so I posted it here.

Very nice sir :)  Gray keycaps?  The few red LEDs are a nice touch :)

Thanks man! :cool: Yep, picked up a gray set for some two-tone goodness.

The red LEDs were a visual guide for the lock keys.

Old pictures of my Poker 2. Doesn't look like this anymore. New case, stock caps again (waiting for the right set to come along), Other switches (ghetto red, stickered, lubed) and waiting for new LEDs.

I have my stock quickfire TK :D

I've been using my Rosewill most often though, due to blue switches!

I also wish I can make my poker II look something like yours Fnzzy :))

This is exactly what I am after.  :thumb: I love your grey keycaps. Can you tell me where did you pick up the grey keycap set?
