I'm more interested in the fact that he tried to bold his title.  I'm sure he will edit it and update with prices and more info.

Pm's have been replied to. As it stands the Leopold is still looking for a good home!

I have a question about the Leopold.

As I understand it, there is backlighting on a couple keys, Caps, Insert, w/e.

Does the circuit board have leads for backlighting on the rest of the keys on the board or just the ones where there are currently LEDs.

Would I need different firmware? I don't want anything crazy like ducky shine III effects, I just want them to activate when pressed

That is normally considered a 'crazy' feature and is part of the firmware it boards like the ducky shine II and III.

Yes 'reactive' lighting is considered an 'advanced' feature. I don't believe without a custom controller board with custom firmware it will  be possible.

wtfiswrongwiththeworld?

ok so you are serious, but wtf

there is already a circuit being closed and signal sent at actuation this can not be THAT hard to program into firmware

Heck it kind of makes me want to mod these old mx blacks to activate at actuation....

ugh, makes me annoyed, but at the end of the day, what I end up creating will be that much more unique

plus if I do it correctly, you would be able to throw a couple hardware based reactive lighting switches amidst the rest of your board to really pimp it out...

Thanks again, the more I know the more excited I get about my project!
