Thanks for the welcome! And, you read my mind! XD
I was searching for cool-looking, good-quality USB cables last night, and couldn't find anything to my liking. That site has just the thing. :')
I love the Tai-Hao Miami set, it's so pretty (and even more with the matching cable). I'll consider a Lucky Shine if I can save even more. The pink Ducky One is the one I was eyeing, but I do get second thoughts sometimes, and wonder if I should get it black. Anyway, I have until December to decide. :)
Thanks so much for sharing!
Hello!
I discovered custom keyboards / mechanical keyboards about a month ago, when two of my co-workers (we are programmers) first brought theirs to the office, and instantly, half the office decided to jump in as well. I am one of them.
However, cheap that I tend to be at first, and very cautious, I decided to go with a low-end mechanical, for which I am very worried, because I not only interested in the beautiful, clicky sounds and tactile feedback of the blue switches. I am strongly drawn to the customization aspect of this hobby, and I don't know how far I can go with this one. I am a gamer, and I love colors, but the rainbow does bore me after a while. Customization is therefore key to my personal needs. Because of that, I think I'll fit right into this hobby. ^^ Anyway, I went with a compact E-Element keyboard, because I like them with backlight, removable cables, and waterproof, at a price I can afford without raping my bank account. XD I also ordered 4 printed keycaps to start with.
For the not-so-remote future: I am already eyeing a Ducky One, though. I like simple designs, with the idea of giving them my own personal touch, and the One, being full-sized, seems like my perfect home keyboard. I'll keep the E-Element at the office.
Nice to meet you! Any wisdom you want to share is welcome.
Hello and welcome.
I have 2 Ducky Ones, 1 RGB YOTG with Cherry MX Black and 1 pink Ducky Transparent One with Cherry MX Red and white LEDs, the only thing I don't like on those k-boards is the Calc button, I liked the browser (?) button on the Ducky Shine 2/3/4 boards better.
Where I orderd my 2 Ducky Ones, there is some Ducky One without LEDs and some with LEDs. So keep a/or 2 eye/s open when you're buyin/orderin, so you get the right k - board.
With LEDs.

EDIT: Blues stay away from me.
At the moment I usin the Tai - Hao Miami keycaps set and a matchin Paracord 550 Miami sleeved Micro USB cable on the RGB board but are missin 4 caps, the Miami set is only 104 keys and the k-board are 108 keys. In Sweden where I live we have the terrible ISO/Nordic layout with this 3 letters Ö, Å, and Ä, 88 - 105/109 k - boards. It is a hell to find ISO/Nordic keycaps sets, so I bought my first ANSI k - board some years ago.
