hey...fellas,now i wanna get some LED backlight for my keyboard...u see i dont wanna spent a few hundred on a logitech g11 or g15 keyboard....so instead, i wanna mod my keyboard for some backlight....

u see,my keyboard is from my 1st computer(like 6 years ago,HP multimedia keyboard) and i love my keyboard...

sometimes when i was typing at a room with the lights off,is hard to hit the key right....

so can tis be done??

any advice?

i wanted to find help but it kind of expensive and the cost of it can buy a g11 already...

another reason is tat the g11 is LOOOOOng especially with all the macro keys and it doent fit into my table....

thanks for all the lovely idea...haha...jk jk....

the bright light from lamp so need my eyes really hurt my eyes...

besides a light in the middle of a room sounds spooky and hairy,,,

nah....uv seems strange...i wan a LED backlight for the keyboard..any ideas?

anyway thanks for responding

sorry for not able to response any sooner....ya know mooncake festival is yesterday and i almost burn down my friends house and when i got home,my cousins almost burn down my house....lol...some kind of karma...

anyway...i reli like link to the other forum...is nice but onli back light but the letter dint illuminate....

and bout the EL wires,i should say this 1st,i'm using a notebook and my keyboard is external one not built in to the notebook's......so i duno the 12v connector is available for notebook.....

so now is the idea,i try to find transparent letter for my keyboard so tat it will illuminate when there is backlight...otherwise the whole point of this DIY is useless

thanks everyone for their ideas....
