Title: Which keyboard kits/PCBs support RGB Switches?
Post by: trauring on Mon, 25 May 2015, 09:39:41

Which keyboards, keyboard kits, or plain keyboard PCBs support RGB switches? I noticed the recent Octagon GB supported RGB switches. What others do?

Also, do all RGB switches that are MX-compatible have their contacts in the same order? i.e. is there a standard?

Thanks.

AFAIK Cherry RGB have the same leads and as such should support any PCB with backlight, but I don't know for sure. Kailh on the other hand has four leads.
