WOW! Where'd you get those? Mind posting a picture of them installed on a switch without a keycap?

metalliqaz · « **Reply #301 on:** Sat, 12 October 2013, 09:30:04 »

I've seen them on Taobao, and I think someone put an IC in the marketplace somewhere.

Are the LEDs as bright with those color changers as without?

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.

It used to be a G2Pro.

I used pieces of it for another project. I really liked it while I had it all in one piece, but I needed that plate. In the picture I am testing a possible backlighting mod. I may get some more switches and use it without the plate someday, but with low level full backlighting.

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.

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.

C5Allroad · « **Reply #324 on:** Fri, 08 November 2013, 18:18:35 »

I almost bought that one. I was looking for a shine 2 with clears to no avail and settled for a shine 3.

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

If you put a red colour changer thingy on it it will just turn sort of purple.
