I'm sad my Ducky Shine did not come with one if these :(
-----
Does anyone have white thick PBT caps to show how they transmit backlight (at max brightness and at lowest brightness settings)? I saw a photo not long ago (can't find it again) showing gray IMSTO PBT not transmitting any LED backlight, but white did. But the photo was not of a Ducky keyboard. I'd like to see how white thick PBT would look with top-mounted LEDs.
Also, similar question for double-shot ABS in light colors.
Photos would be greatly appreciated of dimmest and brightest LED settings!!

Thanks! Yeah, the only one I have now is the DK9008 G1 w/ Blues because I sold the others off in favor of the Ergo-Clear that's upcoming :P I really do kind of regret selling the Greens but it was too expensive to keep and I wasn't using it enough.
The black on black did come stock from Ducky on my Blues. It's a pretty old keyboard now so I don't know if they still sell those keycaps. If you look at my first picture of the Blues, those are the white on white equivalent of the black on blacks. Here is another older pic of the full set:

Thanks guys, I'm very happy with my Ducky! It's way more pink than I had planned for, but eventually I want to mix the pink caps with white or gray... once I find them. It'll be more like the Valentine theme from a recent GB here. Aluminum spacebars were a no-go... they just look too dark with Shine caps and backlight on.
-
Finally swapped out the keys for a more two-tone look:

I also did a little soldering and swapped out the LEDs in the Caps Lock, Scroll Lock, and Number Lock to red to make them more noticeable when they are toggled.

That gray and black go well together, especially with white backlighting.
I was surprised to discover (when I originally bought it) that the caps/scroll/num LEDs on my Ducky with red backlights are actually blue. Made for a nice contrast.
Curiously my other Ducky with green backlighting is all green.

My Ducky with pink LEDs is all pink as well.

Funny story about how I ended up with white backlighting: I couldn't make up my mind at the time of purchase and went with a neutral option. ;)
Whoa...blue indicator LEDs...sounds cool! I think I'll see if I can get some blue LEDs and experiment on the 4 app buttons on the upper right of the keyboard.

The other mods I have in mind are:

- mod the switch tops to allow for removal without having to desolder the LEDs -- got the idea from WFD too ;)
- stick to the existing browns then lube and sticker 'em or throw in clears...55g? or 62g? :confused:

I saw a photo not long ago (can't find it again) showing gray IMSTO PBT not transmitting any LED backlight, but white did. But the photo was not of a Ducky keyboard. I'd like to see how white thick PBT would look with top-mounted LEDs.
Also, similar question for double-shot ABS in light colors.
Photos would be greatly appreciated of dimmest and brightest LED settings!!
Pretty sure I see where you're coming from on this question - I'm highly interested in the answer to this, too, for thick PBT. As far as the DS ABS goes, m00nshake posted pics of his CCnG set on a Shine II with Green LEDs at full brightness, and in the same thread explained that while there was some passthrough, he got sick of the inconsistent effect it had on visibility of the legends and went to thin white PBT:
http://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=35806.msg670258#msg670258
Another thread on it where somebody mentions a generalization about ABS being better than PBT for passthrough:
http://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=36348.msg685010#msg685010
And of course, Vesper's videos that show how well the thin PBT gets it done, think you were already in this thread:
http://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=41947.0
I don't know if it's just a hard thing to search for (maybe?), but otherwise the complete absence of pics for Shine IIs with the stock white ABS caps is tough, maybe even evidence of how big of a flop they've been as an offering -- but I really want to see a view of what one of those keys looks like in reactive mode (i.e. considering the entire key, with a covered legend) in a darker setting.
On the PBT, there has to be somebody with a Shine II and a set of imsto's thick white PBT - might be worth starting a new thread to see if you can catch somebody's attention / get some pics.
-
I tried using thick grey PBT's on my Shine II and it didn't come through very nice. You could still see some light but it was just a small circular light but didn't really illuminate the whole entire keycap like it did with the thin PBT's. I hope that helps at all.

Vesper, you've got a custom LED recording activated in this pic, right? None of your base set seems to be lit like your NumLock - hoping that's not just a difference in room lighting causing the difference.
Interesting layout compared to just the lettering in your videos, too. I'm assuming they're the exact same thin/'regular' PBT sold by feng / qtan.
-
Yeah, that's a custom backlit setting, and yes I believe they are the same ones from feng/qtan.

I tried asking him about it both here and on eBay. He only posted the Purples on eBay after I messaged him about the Greys, then never posted Greys and never confirmed (or even replied, at all) that he had Greys when I replied directly to his Shine keycap announcement thread here on GH:
http://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=42441.0
He was quick to fix the error Photoelectric pointed out, too, so I know he saw my post and just never responded. No way I'm lobbing my money over a silent wall and crossing my fingers, no matter how established a vendor.

I so want another Ducky. Bought a Ducky Shine 2-78 version, and sold it to my boss two days after I got it. I wasn't really that impressed with the choice of switches, and she was born in 78, so that made it an easy trade.
What I really want is a Ducky Shine 2 with MX Green or White switches, green LEDs, and white keycaps. Not a combination they currently have on offer... So, do I just wait to see what Shine 3 options will be available, or get a Shine 2 with green LEDs and swap the switches? Seems a shame to do that to a brand-new board.
I'm conflicted...

Hence the group buy -- guilt him into taking a (much) smaller T&M premium for a high-volume order. If the proof-of-concept price he quotes you for just your unit is too high, you might even be able to find some people to pitch in donations to making sure something happens.

I don't know what kind of modding tools you're already equipped with / invested in that could justify the effort, but without additional info, I would have to discourage the idea of mixing & matching to customize a Shine2 at this point, given what we've seen about the expanded lighting options of the Shine3. And since Ducky and other brands have already run successful offerings with MX Greens, it should be reasonable to expect / hope that they'll add Green switches to the cross-LED switch lineup -- leaving just the keycaps for you to acquire separately.
Waiting also has the added benefit of potentially getting your 'Green w/Greens' combo with a well-priced stock aluminum case.

Here is my Ducky Shine II MX Brown. I ordered up a 104 WASD keycaps set to get a feel for them. My one fail was not making the dark gray keycaps as light gray. No worries those, scored a set of Shine keycaps in gray and I'll have em on Tuesday.
Aside from that I've owned(and re-sold) several other Ducky boards and they are by far my favorite. I also own a CM Quickfire TK Limited Edition(gifting it to my daughter) and a Corsair K70 with Reds(wife loves it with the WASD .2mm red o-rings).
I ordered up a Dye-Sub DK9008G2 Pro Gray+Blue keycaps(love that scheme) in MX Blue and can't wait until Tuesday for that board.

It was actually pretty easy too, especially with all the help I got from Photoelectric. First thing I've ever really painted too haha.

Oooo I see! I wouldn't have been able to tell if it was your first time or not because it looks brilliant!
Photoelectric will have himself a PM coming in as soon as I get back home! Thanks for the info ;)

Oh dear :-X I'm always happy to help and provide tips, but Metal's work is his own, so I can't take much credit. I can only provide words of advice (unless someone wants to bother with shipping, but it's far more fun to make things ourselves), and the rest is practice and careful execution.

Yep! He convinced me that DIY was the way to go and it absolutely was! I had a TON of fun painting it and was extremely satisfied with the job I had done :D Just had to get some noob tips really.

Oh man! The white numpad on the white case looks absolutely awesome! :cool:
Got a few questions for you and Photoelectric:
Did you use glossy paint?
How did you go about preparing the case for painting? Did you sand the case smooth of the textured finish?
-
1. RustOleum oil enamel (in this case Painter's Touch in white, matte I think, or satin. Clear coat is Painter's Touch matte clear, very thin layers)
2. This was a "matte" textured case project, so no glossy paint was used. You can definitely use clear gloss in multiple layers, followed by sanding and polishing to achieve a very glossy reflective look.
3. You dont need to do much preparation. You need to clean the surface of any grease and impurities (mild low-residue liquid soap, maybe some alcohol). Sand any roughness with 400-grit+ sandpaper, as anything less smooth will come through the paint in the end, after it dries. Though if you do a lot of clear coats, the paint layer will be thick, and you can sand off a lot of unevenness and orange peel texture later. But that's something to do only if you are sure you want a reflective finish and needs more tips.

Just to confirm what I used / did:
For prep I just washed the board with soap and water, and made sure there wasn't any lent or stray particles on the board. I also taped up the 3 bottom screw holes as well as the 8 tabs on the inner walls.
I then sprayed light coats until I got complete even coverage with Rust-Oleum Flat White http://www.homedepot.com/p/Rust-Oleum-Painter-s-Touch-2X-12-oz-Flat-White-General-Purpose-Spray-Paint-249126/202071354#.UcnATPmPN8E (http://www.homedepot.com/p/Rust-Oleum-Painter-s-Touch-2X-12-oz-Flat-White-General-Purpose-Spray-Paint-249126/202071354#.UcnATPmPN8E).
Followed by 2 light clear coats of Rust-Oleum Matte Clear http://www.homedepot.com/p/Rust-Oleum-Painter-s-Touch-2X-12-oz-Flat-Matte-Clear-General-Purpose-Spray-Paint-249087/100670439#.UcnATvmPN8E (http://www.homedepot.com/p/Rust-Oleum-Painter-s-Touch-2X-12-oz-Flat-Matte-Clear-General-Purpose-Spray-Paint-249087/100670439#.UcnATvmPN8E).

Thank you Photoelectric and metalliccharles for your answers!
Hmm...thinking metallic gunmetal gray for my Shine II!
-
I'm thinking of beige. :D
-
Great information and directions! I will definitely have to give this a shot on my DK9008. Thanks!
-
Make sure to read directions on each can. Try to do the base + clear coat together, within 1 hour. Thin layers, veil-like, so that there are never liquid pools of paint in places, and wait to do each next coat until the previous one stops being shiny and feels dry.

Got white Shine caps today (thank you, metalliccharles), and now my dream for this keyboard is complete :) I had to take lots of photos :)
There were lots of cool variations, but I settled on this one for now:

A purist would say that `~ and \| should be white, but who cares? ;)

I'm weird in that I prefer that they're not white. I much prefer the symmetry created by them being the same color as the modifiers. The asymmetry created by sets with those the same color as the alphas drives me absolutely insane.
-
I don't like that asymmetry. I've tied it. But since we're color coordinating and using custom keycaps and all, aesthetics > logic.
-
@Photoelectric: Sweet color combination! It reminds me of cotton candy and strawberry foam candy! ;D
As for the asymmetry on the `~ and \| keys...to each his own
BUT my gray \| key is staring me in the face surrounded by black modifiers and begging to be swapped out. :eek:
Time to browse the forum and find some inspiration for a two-tone layout!
-
@Photoelectric: Sweet color combination! It reminds me of cotton candy and strawberry foam candy! ;D
Haha, it definitely looks like you could bite into a key and it'd have a strawberry filling. Yummy! :p

Was deciding between reds and browns went the browns. The switches feel miles better then the browns I had on a ghetto choc mini I got from ebay.
@photoelectric, looks killer back-lit!

Welcome to the Ducky club! Mine has Browns too, I love them--very smooth as well. Ducky must have gotten ahold of a nice smooth bastch.

Are you both talking of keycaps right ^^" ? not sure, not the backlights right? cauz I guess that black case with that grey + purple check borders is kinda weird
then... maybe the problem is the black case..
Have you ever seen a good color scheme with checked+old school? wanna see the mixing colors

So the darker modifiers are purple, and the middle is pink + white? Just trying to get the colors straight. If so, that purple (and also gray) are so much darker than Ducky shows on their advertising photos.

I'm a sort of Ducky headcase, got myself a few of them, but have not quite gotten into swapping out key caps and such.....not yet anyway. So, w/o further delay, here're my Ducky collection...
Ducky Shine II 78 Version #210/399 (swapped out stock black key caps with grey ones, and the transparent WASD and Esc key caps as well)

(http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v333/mikeysg/20130516_182645_zps6f3387b2.jpg)
Also went and got a used DK9008 (Blue) in preparation of the Miami key caps, sprayed it white as I believe it'd go better with the key caps. Meanwhile, stuck my Ducky white on white key caps so that I can use it for the time being. It's pure white, I guess the lighting make it looked.....not quite white?
(http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v333/mikeysg/20130727_134556_zps65bd1586.jpg)
BTW, I have already made a deposit on an Aluminum YOTS (Blue) with the local distributor in my neck of the woods, so I'm assured of a YOTS regardless.

Not too far away! I'd love to see pictures and get some feedback on the aluminum Ducky when you get it. *rawr*
The shops over here have a "buy-if-you-want-to-try" policy and the local distributor here is slow.

I saw someone over at LTT, who's from the Philippines as well, say more or less the same thing. He's hoping it'd be earlier than the expected 08/30. And yes, I'd be back with pics of the YOTS.....

To those who've changed LEDs for individual switches: which LEDs did you select, spec-wise? I'm interested in trying to swap some to orange and a few to green. I don't know how well that will work if I don't swap the resistor, and the original LEDs are purple or white.

I swapped the white LEDs on my Shine II with the red LEDs from my QFR.
(http://imageshack.us/a/img43/5452/8030a.jpg)
(More pictures in this post: http://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=44203.msg921827#msg921827)
I tested the voltages on the boards:
- Shine II (white white LEDs) -- Caps Lock, Num Lock, and Scroll Lock: 4.2V (these are always at maximum brightness regardless of the brightness set on the kb)
- QFR -- Caps Lock, Scroll Lock, and Win Key Lock: 5V
I didn't mess around with the resistors anymore...what's 0.8V between friends? :))
Anyway, it's been about 2 months and the LEDs are fine...haven't burned out yet!
-
Yes, but which LEDs did you get specifically? I've gotten and experimented with T-1 LEDs from mouser.com but for a different board. I'm not sure what the best shape wold be for Ducky LEDs.
-

I just swapped the stock LEDs from the QFR and the stock LEDs from the Shine II. Yup, the size is 3mm or T-1.
By shape, do you mean the LED itself?
Both the stock LEDs I used had domed tops:

Thanks--I'll test some of my accumulated amber and green T-1 LEDs. All round top :(

From what I know, the difference with domed top and flat top LEDs is the spread of the throw of light. Can't find a picture for reference at the moment. :(

Well, a new addition to our "keyboard family", a full-sized Ducky with MX Clears for my OH
(http://i.imgur.com/izV8eNL.jpg)
(he likes full-sized keyboards)
Interestingly, I never really tried stock MX Clears before. I modded them to 62g ergo-Clears right away when I put them into my Filco. I did not care for ergo-Clears, as they seem to lack the solidity and coherence of stock Cherry switches. What a surprise it was when I tried this keyboard with stock Clears, and it felt great! And I normally love very light switches, like Browns and 45g Jailhouse Blues. Stock Clears is how Clears should remain, in my personal opinion (though I'll try 60g springs in my Filco soon). They are great! Such a solid and satisfying bump and vertical motion (whereas ergo-Clears feel kind of loose and wobbly, though they are definitely not actually wobbly--it's just the long bump).
I don't know what I'll do with this keyboard yet. Need to decide on a color :)
(Also, have I mentioned I love Ducky keyboards? I love Ducky keyboards!)

Here it is with my newest keycaps....with an obvious missing key...hopefully sherry gets back with me soon.

Well, a new addition to our "keyboard family", a full-sized Ducky with MX Clears for my OH

(he likes full-sized keyboards)
Interestingly, I never really tried stock MX Clears before. I modded them to 62g ergo-Clears right away when I put them into my Filco. I did not care for ergo-Clears, as they seem to lack the solidity and coherence of stock Cherry switches. What a surprise it was when I tried this keyboard with stock Clears, and it felt great! And I normally love very light switches, like Browns and 45g Jailhouse Blues. Stock Clears is how Clears should remain, in my personal opinion (though I'll try 60g springs in my Filco soon). They are great! Such a solid and satisfying bump and vertical motion (whereas ergo-Clears feel kind of loose and wobbly, though they are definitely not actually wobbly--it's just the long bump).
I don't know what I'll do with this keyboard yet. Need to decide on a color :)

I guess full checked fits more my taste
Whoa. Nice! Is this purple backlight or blue that because of camera looks like purple? ;)

Wah these black keycaps looks like metal with your painted case @_@
edit : I mean a little bit :o
-
The silver ones are metal :) (zinc). The case is stock--not painted yet.

Wow... I was really looking forward getting a blue LEDs one :o
There's really a little feel of metal with the little blue reflects
-
LEDs are kind of odd when it comes to color temperature. White LEDs are usually quite bluish, and that's what you're seeing in that photo. The LEDs are white, but easily look blue when photographed. Purple / pink LEDs are difficult to portray accurately, and Ducky's blue LEDs have some violet tone to them, so they can look purple-ish on photos. The only unambiguous color is green :) Red can come out looking orange or washed out / pink.
-
I read somewhere (here) that the Shine 3 blue LEDs are really bright blue, but the Shine Zero blue LEDs are a much paler blue.

You did that for me (more or less)? Wow - thank you :) :-*
That combination looks really great - better than I expected.
The 4 extra keys above the numpad in pink I think suit it much better than if they were purple.
And on a YotS too!
Almost enough to tempt me away from my pearl and pebble Model M :)

YotS ? Looks nice :D

Always wanted a YOTD, but there were only a couple of Cherry Red models left in my neck of the woods. So, while out browsing around in the local tech mall, I stumbled on one with Cherry Brown switch and I gave in to the temptation....

I'd dropped by the local distributor's office and asked about the YOTS, he said that he's been told that they'd be shipped out next week. I don't know the the time frame between shipping and their physically being put up for sale, but I'd think it's about 10 days to 2 weeks more or less.

Did me some horse trading earlier, swapped my Trigger Red for a Ducky DS9008S MX Blue with green LED, it's a nice looking keyboard. Looking at the green backlight, I'm beginning to wonder why I do have more of them, green LED is pretty pleasing to my eyes. Yes, it's an older Ducky, but in excellent shape, disinfect the key caps and thoroughly removed dust and whatnot with a brush and a can of compressed air.

Green is real easy on the eyes, I had a white led Ducky and it was annoying looking down at the keyboard it took a second for my eyes to focus. I bought white thinking it would be more neutral but it wasn't. Green is good on Duckys.

White is best for various coloured custom keycaps as they highlight the natural colour of the keycaps.

Damn, I had forgotten to post pics of my YOTS which I had gotten some time back, posted them on some other sites, and believed I'd done so here......getting old, my mind's playing tricks on me. Anyway, mine's an MX Blue version.....pardon the bad photography, using my phone cam.

God you guys make me jealous... I wish I was able to buy a yots version still waiting for my shine 3 I'll be posting pics soon...

Those are some nice ducky's!!

Really like the chinese zodiac logo. : )

I like how everyone posts the number of the YotS keyboard they have.
-
To all the YOTS owners, do you feel any different typing on the Alu frame with plastic base? Or it is really just for the cosmetic?

No difference between typing on YOTS and typing on the plastic frame ducky shine2.
What differed is the overall built quality between the two. YOTS looks better built to me.

Yes, they did, and there was a whole thread whinging about it. That is why I wondered if this was a darker purple, or actually blue. Blue it is.

Not purple lol. Just the way my phone picks up the LEDs.... I guess I should have lowered it lol.

Even Ducky reps can be wrong :)
Ducky Nordic linking the Pro PBT keyboard with gray dye sub caps down the page, saying those were MX Whites:
http://deskthority.net/marketplace-f11/ducky-nordic-keyboards-keycaps-projects-and-misc-stuff-t4718-360.html
(down the page, there are photos showing Clears--no nubs and some trasnslucency)
I posed inquiring about those being Clears instead of Whites... and their nordic vendor partner said they were Whites too, heh...
For some reason in Taiwan MX White is indeed sometimes used to refer to Clear and instead milky White is used when referred to true soft click 85g switch type. The currently available Ducky G2Pro dyesub thick PBT darkgray model is true MX White (model DK9008G2Pro-WFIPHH) although the click is indeed very subtle compared to MX Blue or Green.
Edit. To demonstrate how difficult it's to see the difference from pics, here are a few taken from Shine2 Special 78 model.
I was going by the fact that previous Ducky models were listed with MX Whites but then turned out to have MX Clears. That, in combination with what the Facebook text says, indicates MX Clears. But if you've actually opened up and looked at the switches and guarantee that they are MX White, I'll take your word for it!
P.S.: The photo I linked is from Ducky Nordic, and it does look more Clear than White to me, as the switches have some translucency.
Can't say for sure, but it just might be that on that Facebook text they were actually referring to models with MX Clear as there seem to be at least ANSI layout versions available in States for G2Pro dyesub Dark grey with Cherry MX Clear switches (55g tactile). Although global Ducky Keyboard Facebook page has often usefull information, some of it might not be valid for us here in the Nordic area.
And it is true that previously there has been some confusion about this same thing. For that special G2Pro TKL Tactile with mixed Cherry MX Brown/Clear (shadow caps) it read in the box that it would have MX White although they were that time actually referring to MX Clear. So yes, it makes perfect sense to wonder about this and double check before buying whether the keyboard has tactile 55g or (soft) clicky 85g switch :)
Btw, this is a pretty nice wiki entry for different type of Cherry MX switches: http://deskthority.net/wiki/Cherry_MX (http://deskthority.net/wiki/Cherry_MX)
So they insisted that the Pro dye sub PBT Ducky had MX Whites in it, when it actually had Clears--as even demonstrated by the photos (and our ANSI version had Clears as well, as sold by MK.com). So lesson is: have to do your own thorough investigation sometimes when it comes to differentiating Whites from Clears. Even the people you think should be correct can be mistaken.

They are white though :P

Yeah, they're Clears.
There has been some confusion 'bout Whites and Clears in my neck of the woods, even the local Ducky distributor had it wrong when he told me they had a couple of DK9008G2 Pro's with Whites, we removed a couple of key caps and discovered they were in fact Clear. Deskthority got it right though, whites have a more solid shade of white and have an extra 'finger/stem' sticking out on the right of the switch. I took a pic of the Clears and Whites on my 78Version, the 3 from the left are Clear, the four from the right are Whites, you can just make out that extra 'appendage' on the last White on the extreme right....

Interesting. So technically, a Poker II modded with LEDS is about, if not almost the same as the Ducky Mini.
Yep, to me the layout is actually pretty nice to use. ;D

Almost!
What gives 'em away is that these block out quite a bit of light so you have to set your keyboard to max brightness to get a good amount of color.
I'd say max brightness with the color changers is equivalent to the lowest or second lowest brightness without them.

Full bright is too bright anyway. I usually have mine on the second setting from the bottom.

With a little jiggery-pokery and a few extra parts soldered on, yup :) I found which lead feeds the WASD backlights and jumpered it to the LED lines to the rest of the board. Need to bridge the "resistor" points in a few places, too. Haven't tested with more than just the 2 LED's so it may need an FET upgrade too, to handle the current (piggyback another on top of the existing one). I plan to run the LEDs at lowish brightness anyway, so it suits me. Was just something I was playing around with last night.
Of course you don't get the full lightshow of a Shine, just on/off.

Of course you don't get the full lightshow of a Shine, just on/off.
I hope you will document your results here, along with some photographs! (Or in a dedicated thread in the DIY subforum).

There ya go. Will add to it if/when I find time.

Very nice. I have two of that model. One with Blues and one with browns. I love the one with blues, but I personally don't think the one with browns feel that good with cherry stabilizers. So iam going to put the caps from that one on my DK9087 G2pro with blues.
-
I almost bought that one. I was looking for a shine 2 with clears to no avail and settled for a shine 3.

The gray set really goes well with the alu case! (So jelly of the alu case of the YOTS...)

I guess since I posted the gutted G2Pro earlier, I should also post the result.
This is my custom ergo board made with Ducky plate pieces and switches with white PBT caps:
[attach=1]
Still busy modding the switches and fine tuning it a little (this is why there is still hot glue all over and unfilled holes), but I use it as my daily driver at home :)

Holy ****, that looks awesome! I hope the finished product will look even better. Not really sure why you had to hack up a full keyboard though :D
But why do you have your spacemouse in the center? seems like an odd way of using it :D

This reminds me of some thick cardboard cutouts my other half has of her and her dogs when she was younger. They don't spin around though.

I just absolutely love this dog and the meme. It just happens so that one is able to edit the meme to fit into almost every situation ;)
Speaking of the doge, I just had a massive relaunch of my personal website (http://www.saschaheissler.com).

My first mechanical keyboard:
(http://i.imgur.com/ficse.jpg)
Ducky TKL with blues. Really nice board, only eventually sold it because I wanted to try other boards/switches and couldn't justify/afford to keep it as well.
I currently use a Quickfire Rapid at work but I am temped to sell it and get a Ducky, they're just so nice!
-
My third mechanical keyboard was this Ducky 9008 G2 Pro with mx red switches. I gave it to my wife for her job, her first mechanical and she loves it. She is a heavy user that would wear-out typical rubber dome, membranes in about 6 to 9 months. The Ducky is going strong after a year only the caps were getting worn. I replaced them with some GMK doubleshots (not pictured) and she should be happy for years. I still miss that Ducky.

I bought a Ducky DK9008 Shine II White LED Backlit Mechanical Keyboard (Brown Cherry MX) (http://mechanicalkeyboards.com/shop/index.php?l=product_detail&p=322) for my wife last year, which she loves. When my mother-in-law came to visit she fell in love with the keyboard too. I explained to her that it was a limited edition keyboard and that they had been discontinued, but told her I'd see what I could do.
As luck would have it, they must have found a couple in the back and I was able to snag another one! To dress things up a bit, I also bought a set of Cherry MX Keycap Set - Shine White ABS (Ducky) (http://mechanicalkeyboards.com/shop/index.php?l=product_detail&p=710) and the results are below.
I let my wife pick out which color combination she preferred and then sent the other to her mother for her birthday on Monday. She was over the moon and loves the keyboard!

I bought a Ducky DK9008 Shine II White LED Backlit Mechanical Keyboard (Brown Cherry MX) (http://mechanicalkeyboards.com/shop/index.php?l=product_detail&p=322) for my wife last year, which she loves. When my mother-in-law came to visit she fell in love with the keyboard too. I explained to her that it was a limited edition keyboard and that they had been discontinued, but told her I'd see what I could do.
As luck would have it, they must have found a couple in the back and I was able to snag another one! To dress things up a bit, I also bought a set of Cherry MX Keycap Set - Shine White ABS (Ducky) (http://mechanicalkeyboards.com/shop/index.php?l=product_detail&p=710) and the results are below.
I let my wife pick out which color combination she preferred and then sent the other to her mother for her birthday on Monday. She was over the moon and loves the keyboard!

Nice [former?] collection VesperSAINT. I forgot all about the OC.net edition until I saw yours. Pretty cool. And where did you get those blank windowed keys in the first image? Are those straight from Ducky?

Thanks! I knew white was hard to come by so I snapped these up given the chance (and funds haha :p). I don't think the keycaps are in production anymore since they additional legends for the media keys, etc. are only for the Shine 2. I hope you soon find what you're looking for! ;)

Congrats on your ducky!
Quick tip: Pressing Fn+ F9 will light the remaining function keys back. You also want to keep the function key settings on F1 and F5, else you'll be making lots of typos!

Basically Ducky managed to force keystrokes faster than your OS' repeat delay/rates on the hardware side. F1-F4 controls the delay before each character shows up, and F5-F8 controls the repeat rate. Under normal usage scenario, you'd want to keep your repeat delay & rates at 1:1, or else a single keystroke could result in multiple repeated letters. :) The accelerated keystrokes may be helpful if you're gaming and spamming skills on Cooldown timers though.
Here, this video will help you visualize what I mean.
Btw, noticed that you're using a different enter key. Any particular reason for that? o.o
-
Thanks Zeal! I see in the manual it says the acceleration mode is set to F1 and F5 by default, so that's where we'll keep it.
I wouldn't know how or why to change it anyway, LOL but I saw how to reset everything to the default settings so that'll work.
Thanks!! :thumb:

those speed sertings are primarily intended for gamers i think.
i can't even begin to imagine how many rma requests they've gotten because of those. it really should have been hidden under a dip switch

Well, my first post here. Stumbled upon this site by accident. I had a DAS Model S Ultimate which I loved, however my house was broken into, and my laptop stolen along with the keyboard! New laptop, decided to get a keyboard with backlighting, a guy at work was "bored and wanted a new one" so for $50, I snagged his old Ducky Keyboard. After researching, apparently it is a limited edition. My research brought me here to show it off :)
Is there a way to swap the duck key and the Alt key? on the DAS I had it this way around and it was much easier on the fingers when copying and pasting.

Says 760/999.
So there is only 999 of them?
Heh, only. That's a lot. I wonder how many normal ones get shipped?
I've spent tonight rewriting one of my screenplays as a test for this new keyboard... It's bliss compared to the circa 1999 Apple Pro keyboard I was using in the interim, but compared to the DAS? I think I prefer the DAS.

WHAT IS THE NAME OF THE PAINTS U USED? did u use sandpaper?is it hard to open shine 3 for painting purpose?
For the top case, I used True Metallic Plasti Dip Spray in Aluminum Silver: https://www.dipyourcar.com/True-Metallic-Plasti-Dip-Spray.html
I did not sand paper the top case. I just cleaned it with isopropyl alcohol and applied the plasti dip in 4-5 coats.
After 22 days, it looked like this:
(http://imageshack.us/a/img201/7650/yup2.jpg)
(http://imageshack.us/a/img13/7195/zznu.jpg)
The Plasti Dip started to wear off at the corners of the Shine 2 case where it makes contact with the plastic cover that I use as keyboard roof.
On opening up the case, I don't have a Shine 3 but if it is anything like the Shine 2 it should be similar to this: firebt's write up on taking apart a Shine 2 TKL: http://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=39292.0

Infinity I like what you did with the red LED for your caps lock, nice touch! :thumb:
Might be something that Ducky does - my Shine with red LEDs has blue LED under Caps Lock and Num Lock (and those top 4 extra function keys).
Thanks Txduck! It's a simple mod to help the lock keys stand out. ;)
Mine were all white so I swapped out the locks with red LEDs. ;D Oooh...should I do the extra function keys too?
Interesting!
My other Shine with green LEDs is all green. The Yellow Edition is all yellow.
Maybe it was an exception that only some colours had a different Caps/Num LED.
I don't mind the different colours, especially the contrast between the red and blue. But of the top 4 extra keys I think the only one lit is the one indicating the repeat speed.
The other computer is not on at the moment so I can't double-check.

Yay another mini with aluminum case! Isn't it way better? Love mine. Nice! Welcome to GH! :)

Yes, it feels a lot more solid, especially when bottoming out.
Thanks for the welcome. I've been lurking for ages, but finally registered.

added DSA to my ducky :D
it cuts out the lights alot, but I think it looks great with 'breathing' enabled at 2nd highest speed and maximum brightness.

I actually took that case, simply because it was the last color available.

Got a new family member....a new Ducky 9087 TKL S3. I'd hand out cigars but I don't smoke. ;D
She's dressed in black Vortex PBT Double Shots with a few of her original backlit keys included for function and aesthetics.
It's my first TKL and I must say, I REALLY like the shorter board.
The lighting in the photo makes it look lighter, but it's all a good sharp black, so it looks better on the desk than it does in a photo.

Yep, I am loving it so far. Too bad they'll replace this with Ducky Mini II. Which in my opinion is a major downgrade from Ducky Mini I cuz the ugly case is way to big and you can't change the case like you want.
So I got this before all Ducky Mini's are gone (which I am sure they'll be soon).
Thank you btw. :cool:
Awesome board buddy! I love seeing other Mini 1 owners! :)

Ducky Mini MX Black with Ducky PBT keycaps. Custom USB-cable from Pexon PCs.
Loving it so far, little weird without printed keycaps, but hey, looks better in my opinion.

Yeah I see you're in Norway! I was lucky enough to get mine imported from Norway from epZy. Awesome dude. So glad I gave in because I agree, Mini 2 is horrible. The led follow your key strokes feature is neat looking. But left side usb and huge case is a horrible thing...

Impossible to get these keyboards in Norway these days...
Teraset.net is sold out, and wont take in anymore, since the production has stopped.
I bought mine from www.inet.se, and got a swedish forumuser to proxy it for me. Was pretty pricy cuz the delivery wasnt cheap.
Sure, there are plenty goodlooking 60%'s, but the mainproblem here is ANSI. I can't stand ANSI. Used HHKB for 2 weeks, and I did never settle with it. Hated it, and still hating it.
So, 60% + ISO isn't a easy thing.

So very blue!
I am tossing up whether to get white (goes with anything) or blue (my SO's favourite colour) backlighting for my next backlit keyboard.
Then I remind myself that I have run out of IT budget for the foreseeable future, and I get sad.

Ducky kinda got it right with the legends on the number row - both are backlit, but the numbers are slightly lower. The older Duckies put the numbers at the top of the key caps, like you have to press Shift to get them.

I just read through this entire thread and I have to say, there are some good looking Duckies in here. Quite inspiring.
I'm new to the club as I've only had my Ducky for a couple of weeks. I'm really enjoying it!

Shine 3 - MX Brown
I have since replaced the four extra keys above the numpad with some blank ABS caps. I've also fixed the tops of the caps so they don't have that little bit of light bleeding through a few of them. I really like the look of the opaque tops on the doubleshots.

Nice and clean :)
Any thoughts of finding a cable to match the keycaps?
-
No, I just got that cable from Pexon. It's blue because my Define R4, M-Audio speakers and Ducky has blue leds also, in the end I don't know where that came from to get all blue. Purple caps were kind of a extempore buy but blue leds makes the caps look like gray, so I don't want to use anymore backlighting. :)) I kinda don't want blue caps, so it's for now that way. Poker II is on the way, same brown switches and blue leds and I thought to keep it with black caps so it would match with blue cable and other leds. :cool:
But Ducky is pretty that way too, so it's not soooo bad thing. :-*

Hey guys, my first post here!
After lurking for a while, seeing all the cool(and sometimes expensive) keyboards and artisan keycaps on GH I now don't feel so bad about my 130USD expenditure.
And this is what 130 dollars got me;
(http://cdn.overclock.net/d/d7/d721db0f_IMG_1627.jpeg)
The Ducky Premier with Cherry MX Brown switches. Don't mind they keyboard in the back, that's just the old Razer Blackwidow Ultimate that the Ducky is replacing. Bought it before I saw the light. :D
The Ducky looks good, but keeps me craving for cheesecake so I've ordered the Max translucent black keycaps to try out since it was half price due to the Black Friday sale.
Loving the keyboard so far. Feels solid unlike the Razer, which is going to be my project board. Already ordered LEDs to try soldering on.
Hoping to learn more from the people on the forum. So many new things about keyboards that I didn't know even existed before this!
Cheers,
Ali :thumb:

Thanks for the welcome. Got a bit worried when no one replied to my post :))
I'm starting to slide a little. Already ordered a translucent black Max keycap set and getting a SP cloud key from the classifieds and having it sent over to replace my escape key. I'm going to name it "escape to the clouds".
I'll wait till my keyboard is out of warranty before modifying the LEDs. For now, my old mechanical will suffice as a test board. Planning to swap out the LEDs and paint the top. If i get good enough at soldering, I can begin to customise boards for friends.
As I've already said in other threads, I've been reading on the artisan caps and have already fallen in love with them. In my head I already have an idea if which stock caps they will replace.
I hope I don't go all crazy and start buying everything to pimp out my board. :eek:
Though I am hoping to learn more about modifying my board from you guys, especially the electrical parts. That would be a big challenge since I don't have any background in it. For now, I'm concentrating on aesthetics, trying to make the Premier truly mine

That looks good. Especially liking the red key....
Haha, thanks. My buddy said the same, when I got it.
I must say, seeing all the TKL Shines on this thread makes me somewhat regret getting a non-backlit keyboard sometimes. :-\

Lol no dude. The only thing I have lit is the snake spacebar, and it's dimly lit. The rest of the lights are always off. I only use the backlights to show off, which is not that often once every one of your friends has seen it. Unless you want it just for that purpose, you're not missing out.
-
I do use the backlight often as i usually type in the dark but only set it to the lowest level.
Sometimes i need to remind myself why i bought a non-backlit keyboard.
1. i need to touch type better
2. i couldn't stand it when one of the keys on my old board did not light up

I want the red nonaproval and the Spongebob caps :p
I used backlights before, now it just makes purple caps looks gray. Odd what purple cap and blue light gets that. But if you buy a board it's just same to take with backlit, IMO. :D Because your'e need it sometimes that's for sure. :p

second that.sometimes you just need the backlight. The white ones i have on now pick up the glow from the monitor quite well so for now I have no problems. but i may have a problem with the Max key caps.time will tell though.
Ever thought about swapping out the LEDs to a different colour?

Nope, it isn't worth it. I just don't use backlit for now, easier way is just black caps again if it's too disturbing to watch with backlit on. I ordered Poker II few days ago, I'd patch up the mistake by taking white leds but realised there's just blue and green. :-X
Still I'm just thinking should I sell the Ducky after the other one's here.. :-\

I'd just had to order it, I have some obsession with 60% boards.
I just noticed that now with the Pexon USB-cable this Ducky goes crazy if there's backlit on. :eek: Some keys may do ggggggggg or they just don't write anything. :eek: Is this cable problem? Pexon? Or is the Ducky whipping out?

I'm more tempted by normal TKL ones....
Don't take my word on this because I'm still new to the mechanical keyboard scene, but I've read that certain cables do not work on the ducky. some guy had to go through a few cables before he found one that worked.

I've tried those Max translucent caps and I didn't particularly care for them. They did look very nice with the backlight but I wasn't too fond of their texture. I think you may find that you prefer the feel of the PBT caps that came with your Premier. Leopold makes some really nice black PBT caps, or you could try Vortex PBT caps if you plan to mix and match them with the Ducky caps since they are both OEM profile.
Then again, you might absolutely love the Max keycaps.
-
I was hoping to have them without the leds on.... :D
I'll try them out. but so far, i've been quite insensitive to these things. but who knows. I might be one of those #pbtmasterrace guys eh?

You guys took modding to a whole new level lol mine feels so outdated compared to the extremes..

Kind of embarrassed to post my Ducky keyboard now. It's only stock keycaps!

My few month old, very first mechanical keyboard. Recently had some chattering issues with it and cleaned it up with some 99 isopropyl alcohol, which seems to of fixed it for now :)
Samsung Galaxy s5 doesn't seem to have that good quality :(

It's pretty even if it's original :-* But fullsize is something weird, I get used to the TKL and all bigger seems weird :p

When I first saw 60% board, hehenri's bumblebee V60, I was sold. That's it, just that is what I want and TKL is somekind of compromise but not The Thing which is 60%. :)) And December 9th it'll be here, I'm just in love with it already :-*
TKs are awesome but they're so big and I don't need numbad, even I used it alot but got used to live without it immediately. :))
Sorry for so much offtopic. :-[
-
I get where you're coming from.maybe my next one will be TKL.anyways, are there resources that show ducky premier modifications? Havent been able to find any.seems like the premier isn't as popular as the shine 3
-
What's the difference between Shine 3 and premier? Just caps?
-
What's the difference between Shine 3 and premier? Just caps?
The shine 3 has many backlighting options (all keys have leds) and that is the main feature, the premiere only has a few backlit keys and has dip switch selectable support for Dvorak and colemak as well as a typist mode. And as you said the stock caps will be different as well.

I use the number pad for work and had a razor lycosa for around 5 years before this keyboard, so even going from that huge thing to this keyboard was strange. Though I could imagine life with a TKL, maybe for the next board as viewing here and /r/mk makes me want to kinda start a collection too, is this a good idea?! And yeah I do want to change some keycaps but I literally only very recently started looking at forums and such regarding mechanical boards and I have no idea what fits what and all that. I did see some nice translucent keys that's I was super interested in, but being from the UK and ordering from the US with postage seems to be pretty expensive and I don't really know where to look to get caps to go over just the letter keys, I think it's called alphanumerical? Though I did see a back lit dota2 key on GeekKeys that I ordered immediately. Considering getting a cable from Pexon as that vendor is about 10 miles away from where I live :p
-
@KH, as stated by spamray, those are the differences between the shine series and the premier.
@Geoph a collection? Well, most people here have a few keyboards. I personally cannot justify spending that amount of cash when I won't be using the items often.If you have the funds, why not?? As for the keycaps, take a look around the forum.There are vendors and artisan caps etc. I got my links from there. For Ducky keyboards, it uses the OEM cherry profile, which is something to take note of only if you're changing a few key caps.If you're changing the whole set, then it shouldn't really matter so long as the cap sizes for the modifiers are the same.Also take note if your board layout is ANSI or ISO. Off the top my head, I know that the enter and capslock keys are different between the 2 layouts.
I've recently ordered a keycap set from Max keyboards and the shipping to Singapore seems reasonable.
As for changing cables I've read somewhere that not all cables are compatible with the Ducky keyboards due to a different wiring or some sort. So be sure to take not of that.
I also recently ordered a cloud keycap from Signature Plastics that is going to replace my escape button. I think it's gonna look good with a blue backlight

That would suck if I wanted to get a custom cable and it didn't work, thanks for the heads up. Only want the translucent letter keys to be fair but my girlfriend think it's totally silly that I want to customize by keyboard because it's "just a keyboard" Also a good reason for a full layout keyboard is more keys to customize! I was looking at some of the artisan keycaps and thought those would look awesome over my pc/home/email/calc keys.

Have patience - another sale will occur eventually.
Also prepare for disappointment. Some get lucky on their first sale, some on their second, some on their tenth.

Yeah.it's no biggie....cool to have, and some have really nice designs.. but it's fine if i don't
wasn't here during when artisan keycaps were going for high prices but i still like the direction the members are taking, those with spare caps selling it to the new guys at cost.
never seen anything like it

Just a standard Shine 3. Nothing special... yet. Gonna get a set of Vortex doubleshot backlit PBT caps for it soon.

There recently was a vortex doubleshot pbt backlit compatible set on massdrop.was tempted to get it untip i saw that the secondary functions on the keys did not light up

I held off on that drop since they're on MK.com for not much more. And yeah, that's the only thing that kinda turns me away from them. It's not that I need to see the secondary functions, but it's not as visually appealing when they aren't lit up. They're still the best quality backlit caps available for a reasonable price, though, so I guess I'll have to deal with it.
-
True....one of the reasons i changed from a blackwidow is because the secondary functions weren't lit.couple that with the colour of the stock keycaps, i just couldn't sed anything when i type in a dark room, especially when the backlight was off...looking for a pbt set where all the characters are lit.....know of any?

I received my first mechanical keyboard in the mail yesterday. It's a Ducky Shine 3 TKL with white LED Cherry MX Brown.
(http://i433.photobucket.com/albums/qq51/blaklyte82/Keyboard/IMG_1346.jpg) (http://s433.photobucket.com/user/blaklyte82/media/Keyboard/IMG_1346.jpg.html)

So far I'm not too sure if I like it or not. I bought it mostly for gaming, I play a lot of CS:GO, EvE Online, League of Legends and a couple of others. Maybe I didn't use the keyboard enough yet but I feel like the keys are so tall that's it's hard to do certain quick tap. Also I feel like the keycaps move more from side to side or more of a wiggle them my old Logitech G11.
An other thing is that I was expecting it to come with the Ducky spacebar and it came with the Snake spacebar only. I had to call NCIX and they said they will see if they can send me a Ducky spacebar. I hope that I will be able to get used to it, had for now I feel like it's more distracting then anything else during game. Any of you found the transition from membrane keyboard to mechanical keyboard difficult? Did you learn to like or even love it?

That looks good. Exactly the board I would've bought if the store had them but in the end I was reminded why i avoided a backlit board on my recent purchase. For me it did take quite a while to get used to the height of the caps, especially coming from a relatively flat membrane keyboard. You can't exactly rest your wrist on the desk now, especially if you don't want to strain your fingers/wrist.

So far I'm not too sure if I like it or not. I bought it mostly for gaming, I play a lot of CS:GO, EvE Online, League of Legends and a couple of others. Maybe I didn't use the keyboard enough yet but I feel like the keys are so tall that's it's hard to do certain quick tap. Also I feel like the keycaps move more from side to side or more of a wiggle them my old Logitech G11.
An other thing is that I was expecting it to come with the Ducky spacebar and it came with the Snake spacebar only. I had to call NCIX and they said they will see if they can send me a Ducky spacebar. I hope that I will be able to get used to it, had for now I feel like it's more distracting then anything else during game. Any of you found the transition from membrane keyboard to mechanical keyboard difficult? Did you learn to like or even love it?
If you are coming from a membrane keyboard, I can understand how you might have issues with a perceived difficulty in double-tapping due to key travel. You are used to having to bottom out your keys completely in order to register a keypress. With Cherry MX switches, you only need to press the key down about halfway before the switch will actuate and register the keypress. There is quite a bit of travel below the actuation point but it is unnecessary to press the key this far down. In reality, your new keyboard should be much more responsive than a rubber dome keyboard. It's just a matter of getting that muscle memory for the new switches.
If you find you are having trouble with the height of the keycaps, you can always try switching them for a shorter profile keycap set (such as Cherry profile or Signature Plastics DCS profile). Keep in mind, some people have issues with keycaps hitting the LEDs and not bottoming out properly with some backlit keyboards when using very thick, shorter profile keycaps (like the popular Leopold thick PBT set).
Hope you get everything worked out with your new keyboard!

Thanks for all the replies. Not bottoming out the key will take getting used to. Also I feel like the number keys or way taller then what I'm used to "I mean where the top of the WASD keys are and where the top of the 12345 keys are", not sure if you understand what I mean by that. But switching between weapon in CS feels weird because of that height. I sometimes hit the side of the key cap instead of hitting the top. I will practice this week and see if I can get better and if it will start to feel natural.
Do anyone find membrane keyboard just had good for games? I talked to some pro CS players, I've told them that I never did the switch to mechanical, They all told me I was behind the curve and that I should get one. Now I'm wondering if I should have kept my old keyboard :-\

Rather than consciously trying to avoid bottoming out (which would be pretty difficult, especially while gaming), I'd say it would be better to try to train yourself to just be aware that you don't have to bottom out. Once you do this, it should start to feel more responsive and over time you'll find that you aren't deliberately pressing the keys down as hard.
The keycaps that come on the Ducky Shine 3 have a very pronounced curvature which makes the sides of the cap stick up a bit further than other sets I've seen. If you don't plan on changing them, it's just a matter of getting used to them

I did thing of changing the keycaps, I knew it was an option when I bought it. People talked a lot about PCB keycaps but I didn't really look into it. I was also thinking that o-ring might help but I don't have enough experience with mechanical keyboard and don't know what kind of difference it would make.
There's only one store were I live that sell mechanical keyboard and the only one they have is Razer with Razer switches. I kinda had to make my decision half blind, and could not test anything beforehand. I just hope everything will fall in place.
-
O-rings will reduce the downward travel and dampen the bottoming out sound somewhat.
If you prefer flatter more uniform keycap profile, try DSA.

Well considering it's my first mechanical keyboard, I like it very much.
The 5mm thick aluminum case top is nice and smooth. I guess due to that, it is heavier than what I expected it to be.
But I don't mind the heaviness, as it feels very solid. I just wish they made a clear switch variant.

Yeah I don't know why ducky doesn't make more boards with clears, I've got a brand new shine 3 I will probably add clear switches to some day. Thanks for the info!

No problem. Before I forget...
One drawback of this keyboard is that the usb cable is not removable, so no quick and easy cleaning as I need to plug it off the computer.

That is a little surprising on what I would have considered a high end ducky board, kind of disappointing actually.

They're so much fun! The only things with it are that it doesn't have any legs to angle it or prop up the base and the micro USB is on the left-hand side which you can see was a bit of a menace for me as my cable needs to run to the right. The cable supplied by Ducky is right-angled though so all is good!

Silents are IMHO better then standard reds, the silents are softer in bottoming out and really are quieter than their unsilenced counterparts, they also have a little reduction in travel due to the dampener, my batch of silent reds are smooth, very smooth.
They are very nice to use and I believe the S-blacks will be snappier and even better to type on. :)) Hope that helped.

The one thing I don't think I'll like about Cherry MX Silent is the travel reduction. That's the main reason I could never use O-rings.
Still want to try them tho.

O-Rings are terrible, for me at least.
But Silents are only reduced by 0.3mm if I recall correctly and they feel much more natural if you know what I mean?
The experience is very nice overall, think of it as a softer MX Red that isn't as sharp and I can't repeat this enough. It's smooothhhh

Yeah, their "quiet click" switches. I would still rather there be no travel reduction, but I do like them. Probably my favorite Matias switch.
