Trying to color match LEDs to plastic is hard, especially the purple that hyperfuse uses.  There's always white!

What I meant was: what color led would look best with hyperfuse, not what color will be the same as hyperfuse.

I probably misunderstood what you wrote...


Anyways I was going to go with white as well.

The teal on the top board goes well.

Can we get them to build the Alps ten feet higher and get Cherry to pay for it?

I'm doing full white with my Hyperfuse. Maybe some magenta? We'll see.

Hmm, teal seems hard for me to source with a proper resistor atm. Seems pretty nice however.

Teal is really hard to find.  Looks good though

Aqua and indigo, obviously... though both colors can be a pain in the ass to find in 2x3x4mm or stupidly expensive. Otherwise for the easy and cheap route, cold white.

Are you trying to match LEDs to the original DSA/DCS Hyperfuse, or to GMK Hyperfuse? If you want LEDs to match DSA/DCS Hyperfuse, I think the LEDs I posted match best. If you want LEDs to match GMK Hyperfuse, I would go with white LEDs.
