Title: Replacement Key Caps
Post by: skyblue on Sat, 02 April 2011, 10:40:38

Hi Everyone,

I only stumbled upon these forums about a week ago when I first started looking into mechanical keyboards (had no clue that these even existed prior to last week). After alot of reading, I decided to go with the Das S since it`s the most affordable in my area (about $95). Needless to say, I don`t think I`ll ever be going back to membrane keyboards :biggrin:

I apologize because I`m sure this is a noob question, but I was unable to find anything in the wiki. Are there companies out there that make replacement key caps for these keyboards? It would be great if I could somehow customize the looks of the keys or just completely replace all the keycaps a couple years from now to keep it looking like new.

Thank you!

Welcome to GeekHack!
There's a Group Buy subforum that you can look into for replacement keycaps, I don't know how many are still open however.

Thank you! I'll keep an eye on this subforum for future group buys.

These keyboards sound so amazing that I've started to play typing games just to have a reason to use it........
