Title: Looking hard for these key caps :(
Post by: BrunoMars on Wed, 27 November 2013, 02:04:31: Hello, this is my first post on here :)

I'm trying so hard to find white keycaps that light up the letters like in this video for my ducky shine 3. Please help me them :( They MUST light up the actual letter.

yea thanks those are the only one's I've found. Was hoping another manufacurer made them for a bit cheaper. I've never bought key caps before so $71 seems a bit too much to me lol. I really didnt wanna pay much more then like $45 =/

Unfortunately, these specific shine 2 caps are semi rare, and Ducky seem to be the only manufacturer.

Can I ask what color LEDs your shine 3 has? Because if it is white, this group buy might interest you?

Only one day or so left!

My shine 3 has blue lights. I think it looks sooooo nice with the white keys and blue lights. I really don't want to pay $71 for some plastic keys lol. But if I have to then I suppose I'll think about it =/

Oh that's awesome to know, do I msg him on here for the discount or do I have to msg him on e-bay?

I have a feeling this website is going to put a big hole in my pocket lol. I'm looking at all these things I had no idea a keyboard could have lol. I am in love with keyboards now :thumb:
