Title: Do PBT rgb kits exist?
Post by: lightsout714 on Thu, 26 January 2012, 22:07:48

I don't like having multiple types of keycaps on a keyboard. Has anyone ever seen a pbt rgb kit? I am also looking for a red WASD. I think qtan said he could get that I will have to ask him.

considering what the cherry ones are supposedly worth, I think it'd be much easier to get some cheap ones from unicomp and modify them for cherry MX usage.

Buy normal PBT caps and use RIT dye.

I RIT dyed my unicomp spacesaving keys. Was easy and worked well.

Not really a fan of the dye. I wonder how hard it would be to mod a BS cap to a cherry. Aren't the BS caps two peices?  Sounds like more trouble then its worth I may give it a look for the hell of it though.

Mine are on my Unicomp. Except the stabilized keys.
