Title: QFR Unbranded? QFR Customization?
Post by: Narcix on Sun, 14 July 2013, 09:05:39

Heya, I'm still looking for a qfr to replace my qfire pro, and while searching on ebay i found an unbranded one with blues for about 85€ shipping included. But I'd also like to customize it: nothing to fancy, just some nice keycaps...problem is that i dont know which ones are compatible with that keyboard, and i wouldnt like to buy stuff i cant use....also, is there any eu website that sells keycaps or i have to rely on us ones? thanks in advance

QFR has a very standard layout. Most sets out there should fit. If you have any specific sets you're concerned for you can ask here.

As for EU suppliers I have no idea.

1 more question: are qfr leds bright? i'd like to put a transparent/backlit key on the scroll lock button, but i dont know if leds are bright enough to light it up....the ones on the qfire pro are almost invisible

They're pretty bright.

Have a look here (http://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=45672.0) for our list of keycap vendors.

There are a few in the UK.
