Title: Ducky 9008 keycap replacements ?
Post by: Moogle Stiltzkin on Sun, 17 October 2010, 22:27:38

Ok so i just heard that the Ducky 9008 i just ordered might be silk screened keycaps !

According to this review by some Chinese dude.

Ducky Channel says they have a full set of PBT keys for the DK-9000 and DK-9008 but their out of stock. I think their laser etched but i am not sure.

So any ideas what would be a good key set replacement for the Dk-9008 ?

double shots or dye sublimated keys :X pbt or pom preferably.


Some of the Ducky keys have a small plastic strip so you can see the led.

That new was few months ago
I'm not in China at the moment, what I know from  ducky bbs is:
1, Ducky did sell the full replacement keys set, including ABS and PBT
2,PBT function keys got seriously fitting issues(overtough), it may destroy the switches, so Ducky stopped selling them for a while, not sure them were back to market.

Because i doubt there will be keys to replace the Ducky led lighted ones, so instead, just replace some of the keys i will mostly be using.
