Title: Pok3r Caps/Layer LED replacement
Post by: Zaskar on Fri, 11 December 2015, 00:37:49

Looking to pick up a Vortex Pok3r and add LED backlighting using 2x3x4 Rectangular LED's. If I also want to swap the Caps lock and 2 Programing layer LED's under the spacebar with a different color can I use the same kind of 2x3x4 Rectangular's?

Very probably, considering that they should have long legs. The actual leds for those layers are actually larger sized leds though. I think they are 3mm round leds. I'll go grab my pok3r and check. (I removed caps led though... Had to replace the switch and got rid of the led at the same time.)
