Never been fond on LEDs however this is quite interesting. Do you have any more information such as price or where to buy it from?

i think your friend ripped you off. it looks cheapy, tacky, and it also looks like caps and esc don't light up.

I actually got it pretty cheap considering its fully programmable. And the esc is just a freebie(no keyset was included) i placed my ducky abs uv coated caps to test out the leds but im replacing this with some varmilo pbts coz im not really turning on the leds only the underglow.

Yep, i know the steel plate would make it more sturdy :)

He says this is a gh60 pcb but i dont really mind as long as it had the underglow effect.

The full acrylic build makes it more portable tho
