Title: Noppoo Choc Keycap Help
Post by: dreamingftw on Tue, 10 May 2011, 15:55:27

Just purchased a Noppoo Choc cherry browns off ebay... Just wanted to know where I can find colored keycaps for them.

Welcome to GeekHack.
Look in the Group Buy forum for the colored KBC keycap thread.

Technically any keycap for Cherry MX switches will work.

I'd say give the Noppoo keycaps a try before switching em out. If you're basing the look off of that horribly photographed picture Ripster always posts up, it doesn't look like that in person at all. Still might not be for some, as it is darker than normal, no question about it, but I actually like the way it looks in person.

Also the keycaps feel great in my opinion. Better than the default ones that came with my Leopold and better than the caps I got from a Cherry donor board. It's the texture, feel, height, sharp edges, and thicker Pom style to it that make it feel really unique.

thanks for the help guys... I will definitely give it a try before I purchase any caps for it. I was just wondering in case I wanted the change the way it looks.
