I just found out about reactive lighting and I MUST HAVE IT. What keyboards have this? I checked Google and only came up with Duckys and the Corsair K70.

My ducky shine II has this as a mode!
-
ah, right there on the video it says ducky shine 2, LOL ;D

And I obviously can't read :'(

the next series of deck keyboards coming out will have reactive lighting
-
As if it wasn't already bad form to look at the keyboard when typing, now also drawn to it by light!
It sounds cool for showing off though.

You won't see the reactive lighting.

I can see reactive lighting on my Ducky Shine II when I turn up brightness. Can't really see it at minimum brightness, but it's very apparent at medium-to-high brightness levels.

WHICH never happens given the crowd on this forum

You don't need to look at the keyboard to see flashes of colored light popping up in your peripheral vision. Unless your monitor is really high up, or your keyboard is right by your chest. Just sayin' :)

I still think it would be cool (in a show off kinda way) if teh LED lights as you press the key, but stays lit for a second or so afterwards, instead of either flashing or just staying lit while the key is pressed down.
-
It's a cool novelty function. I kept mine on that setting for the first couple days of owning my new Ducky and then swapped to non-flashing full-time (lowest setting) full backlight. It seemed cool, but in practice it was distracting.
-
It seems like a cool idea on the face of it, but in practice it would only serve as a distraction, at least for me.

Not really a big fan of LED's but I must admit, it's fun. I have a custom that lights up the entire board when any keys are pressed. It's pretty cool as ****.
