So I know that the ducky series had keyboards that light up after each keypress, like if I hit the L key it would light up for the duration that I clicked it, I was wondering if there was a mod out there that could do that for my cm storm quickfire tk. Just a thought, I always thought that was a pretty cool feature of a light up keyboard haha

does the controller even allow that?

I have no idea to be honest! Completely new to mechanical keyboard so I have no idea! I thought you could just flash some software by throwing it onto the existing software or something like that.

I don't own cm but you'd first need to be able to modify the firmware. easiest way if the controller sucks(which it most likely is) is to get a new controller. bifany(or something like that) is making DIY controllers for boards, they may have made one for the tk

Ahh I see :o I'll look into it :> Seems fun to start modding keyboard right off the bat! Thanks for the info! :thumb:
Just wondering though, where would you find the controllers and the like? Would it just be on the forums or do they have a particular website?

the amount of work that would take for you to get this to work on your own.. you're better off just buying another board which already has this feature..
I'd imagine you'd get board of it quickly though..
because logically.. everything that's important happens on ur computer screen..
How long are you going to look at your keyboard..

Haha I suppose it would just be easier to get a keyboard with a feature but I thought I'd just ask you guys here to see how hard it would actually be, and I know its not really a useful feature, just a gimmicky for fun thing :> I just really liked the layout of the cmstorm tk over the full size of most duckies but yea, thanks for the help guys!
