Title: Looking for purple backlit keycaps
Post by: harjoat on Mon, 04 July 2016, 07:07:47
I recently picked up a Ducky Shine 3 Yellow Edition and I've got to admit the keycaps hide the beauty of this thing. I found a picture of exactly what I'm looking for but can't find a UK ISO layout:/. Anyone got any clues of where I could pick some up?

I have 1 ANSI Ducky Shine 3 YYY and 1 ISO/Nordic Ducky Shine 3 YYY TKL.


The ISO layout hell, I have some ISO/Nordic Ducky Shine 3 + 1 ISO/UK Ducky Shine 3 and some ANSI Ducky Shine 3/4 and it is a hell here in Sweden to find any ISO/Nordic keycaps sets. Only one 1 shop here in Sweden sellin ISO/Nordic keycaps sets.

There is a Pink Ducky ISO/UK set here: http://www.kustompcs.co.uk/acatalog/info_30405.html

But you where lookin for a Purple set, sorry that I could not help you.

Yeah I know finding ISO layout keycaps is very difficult, I've seen those pink caps but I just don't think they'd fit with this keyboard. The majority of the big keycap suppliers do ANSI only which is rather annoying.

Yeah the yellow backlight on this keyboard is something I really like about it so would prefer keycaps that support backlighting

Not sure if this helps.  I haven't bought from him yet, but the seller gets good reviews.  It SAYS ANSI, but shows keycaps for ANSI and ISO.  Worth asking him:

that PBT looks pretty pink to me.

Those sets appear to support ISO enter, but not the split left shift.
