Title: Unknown Bro Cap Keycap
Post by: DaBubbs on Thu, 05 December 2024, 11:45:40

Does anyone know what the name of this Bro Cap keycap is called?

[attach=1]

I forget exactly how I ended up with it, given that it is MX. I think that I ordered a Topre Lycan years ago and I was sent it by mistake and told that I could keep it. Whatever the reason, I cannot find the certificate card for it.

Thanks!

This is a Keyforge Orochi, it seems to be the Volcanic colorway. https://keycap-archivist.com/maker/keyforge/orochi/41bbbccf/

These look so cool, and I’m not much of a keyboard/keycap person. Do these work on a backlit keyboard? Or do they not illuminate?

I do not believe they illuminate, but I do not have any backlit keyboards. I mostly use Topre Realforce TKL keyboards.

The keycap is thick enough that I am not sure if any light would pass through it. I could be wrong though.
