you're used to the tactile feel i suppose, back to using linears will tend to bottom out all the time  biggrin.gif
No one bringing their product in anymore.

Got few options..
1st is like -Hzu- said, muscle memories. But this need you to reach touch typing level.
2nd is get high contrast keycap for those 2 key (V, B), example a green and a blue, other keycaps remain black.
3rd is buy a table lamp, which is recommended as well, although looks nonsense from a perspective of advice.

I recommend the 2nd option.

The drawbacks of 1st option is when you type, your muscle remember, but if you want to find a certain key in your keyboard.
You will have a hard time.
Note: I'm a touch typist using modified dvorak layout

Drawback of third option, if you have roommate or siblings, just don't use table lamp.

thanks for suggestion, actually now i was thinking to get the rainbow pbt set from taobao.

1.i able to do some touch type, problem is that v and b are both under same finger and if i go back to f to feel the little groove before going back v or b its slowing down.

2. rainbow keycap are they have enough contrast?

3. nah, limited light, anymore will disturb my grandma

just my opinion on the switches:

Blue - noisy shit, hate it
Brown - love it for gaming, but for typing the tactile feel kinda get in the way sometimes
Red - Using now, balance between gaming and typing. but no tactile mean cant double tap effectively
Black - so hard, my finger pain
