Hi geekhack! Recently getting a little more interest in mech kbs and I saw all those custom Korean kbs. Oh geez, anodized aluminum housing. Well, I'm not that crazy to jump on and getting one for myself but I do have this Razer BW ultimate (first gen) that it's LEDs are dying on me and the blue switches feels weird as some of them have inconsistent feel compared to the other. After testing out few mainstream MX switches, i felt that the brown suits me the most, the blue is just pain in the ass to type at night when I'm rushing on my assignments at night, most important it wakes up my mom, she is a light sleeper.
Now that I study at college, I have less time to spend with my mech kb and have to deal with those laptop scissors kb
. My sister will use the kb most and she told me my kb feels weird lately and more LEDs are dying. So, should I change out all the keys to brown? Then add sticker, change out to korean spring, lube it, and change out all the LEDs. I don't know where to get good 3mm LEDs with no ridge (I suppose the ridge will make the LED impossible to sit on the switch). If fellow geekhackers can shine me some light on these, I'll be really happy.
