Any user looking for Roccat Ryos here?

not like that... most mkb led is on top so the front printed key cap doesnt light up...

Drill?

If thats the case then I have no idea lol

Go taobao shopping then, alot of china branded keyboard, try your luck to search over there

Backlit keycaps are rare, and they don't innovate to the extend of doing font printing on it yet.

Somore, I don't think it will look good as the legends will be very near to the reflected light from backplate this the contrast going to be poor.

gaming type mkb hard to get attention here

taobao... it never loads properly for me... and i cant read chinese at all... even buy2taobao.com doesnt load properly for me too...

what type of keycaps the best for backlit keyboards? doubleshot too thick for the backlighting to pass through right? only ABS type?

If you can do with blank keycaps, go for blank transparent or jelly keycaps.

Else, do it like lowyatguy did, give up on the backlit (penetratebility) but utilize the reflected light.

Last time I was like you try searching around the keycaps with side print for backlight, at the end I give out because if you want the side print keycap to light up ( if you found it ) your LED must be at the bottom to shine, but my Ducky Shine 2 is at top, I feel if I found also not beauty to light up like that.

Now I using PBT white keycaps to shine through effect like glowing whole keycaps, like to use it with LED function point and light up.

Other than that using black PBT don't let the LED shine through but just let them glow at side.

these stock clears are the best for me, but damn, i miss my LEDs. lulz.

i see... erm kinda hard to know whether the keycaps is good with backlighting on my QFTK... i kinda like watching the breathing effect... so dont think gonna go completely black anytime yet...

so far, there's no stock keyboard that comes with backlit + side print key caps

the reason is they wanna showcase the backlit-ed letters..

just buy a backlit keyboard and a set of side printed caps, then you're done

u mean this?

Haha, just now decide to tell your story here, but hadn't done it and you come.

yes something like that is what i meant... a front/side printed backlit mkb... that looks kinda cool... so they do exist... or is that some custom mkb?

Custom modded backlit and custom modded keycaps.

Closest you can find is the KBT Pure, side printed secondary key legends are cool to cure your thirst at least

If you don't mine 2 face also light up, KBT pure also not bad
