Title: My newer style Choc Mini keycaps foryour older style
Post by: BiNiaRiS on Mon, 18 July 2011, 02:06:15
Anyone want the newer style caps that have brighter and easier to read lasering on them? I want the older style caps that in low light are closer to blank.

My set of keys are nearly brand new and most of them have never even been typed on.

Here is a pic of the keys that I have (not my actual keys):

The easiest way to tell what caps you have is to look at the colored modifiers in the upper right hand corner. The older styles have the coloring on the top of the key, and the newer style has it on the side of the keys.

Where are you located? I have a Choc Mini and I hate those almost blank keycaps. Would trade in a heartbeat if you were in Europe.

Hmm, mine is the newer one but they still aren't quite as bright as yours

That is quite the contrast change from old to new.  Lame they change the coloring of the lock keys as well.  

Free bump as I am on the same side of you and loving not being able to read my keys.

The color has just been relocated to the front of the key instead of the top. It's pretty redundant to have both labels but the scheme makes more sense that way with the color strictly in the front and the gold on the top

You are the second person from Europe that has wanted to trade :\ I'm of course in the US.

Sorry that this is kind of irrelevant, but does anyone know where I could get some makeshift/replacement keycaps for the choc mini? Thanks.

Never see any...prologue cause It's too new.

All my middle keys are replaced with black doubleshots right moa though. Its that small alt and such that makes it tricky.

Aw man. I sold my Choc Mini not too long ago because I hated how dark the caps were. I would have taken you up on this in a heartbeat.

Good luck.
