How soon is it approximately?
So it's doable?  I only need f-rows while gaming and then convert back to stock layout while not gaming.

Btw, anyone have ice blue led ready? Thinking if modding full white led and different color for wasd, arrow and f-rows. And esc button. 3 different colours.

Another thing, keycool acrylic casing only for non led version or both? How much in myr? I can't check... mobile browsing sucks... sad.gif

It suppose to come out last June... But at this Coming Soon rate, I not sure whether it will reach by next June...

For the keycool, I think keycool's casing for 87 is standard, be it backlit or not. Hence the acrylic casing should be universal and compatible with both? hmm.gif

It is "Shine" series.
The term in ducky means it has LED.
Can you see the keyboard with LED on ?

To get back ur bw question
Yes require soldering.

Sai86 that is for pcb mounted switch.
Yours is plate mounted. So you have to desolder

How much is the price for the casing? Looks interested and I wonder will fit in other kb. Somehow I have problem browsing taobao from my mobile only. Btw, keycool and vortex is the same level or vortex superior than keycool? Seems like I don't really mind cherry as long they are universal, not like oni. sad.gif

I don't think the acrylic case have any purpose apart from aesthetic. Stock Keycool casing is already very solid and comfortable to be used.

The case cost around 200RMB? Not really worth it IMO. Even the money making MKC is able to sell their acrylic casing for less than 150RMB last time.

I not sure how will keycool fair with vortex, but will say Keycool is no where inferior in built quality. If they can provide a good quality stabiliser and QC, then their board are almost perfect.

apparently the kbt oni's spacebar issue was due to the spacebar's stem itself, according to a discussion couple of pages back.

the keycool acrylic casing is RMB198, which comes to about RM110+ without shipping to MY yet.
but RM110+ is for fully transparent casing. not sure if using 2 black top and bottom with transparent middle casing will alter the price or not...

It is the spacebar issue imo. I tested 3 different sets. 1 stock and 2 aftermarket. You need to mod the caps stem to adapt the odd stabs. Because the pink pbt doesn't have any isdue and the vortex dye sub perfectly fits on ducky shine. I'll be happy to post my keycaps if I'm at same island with oni owner to make comparison for now.

May I know what else problem that been plagued keycoo ledl? I'm happy to make comparison to the poker ii. Yeah 2 different size and factor but I had ideas for both. Plan to spend a long time with mech kb after this. Soon salary will be reduced. sad.gif

Scratchy means not smooth? Feels like there's a sand on the stem? But that can be lube isn't it? If that's the case, i guess poker ii is my next mkb... Hopefully I'll be happy with her.

Yar, get a poker and you can save a lot more on keycaps next time due to the smaller layout.

Or may be not since you are going to burn a few holes onto your wallet for getting custom casing for poker. brows.gif
