Thanks, after pushing it several times over the past hour it has oddly seemed to have fixed itself... It must have been just a weak connection or something.

If it ends up not working for good, would all i need to do is re-solder on a new switch in its place?

I just received my Ducky Shine 2 (Green LEDs & black switches) in the mail today. I was very excited as it is my first mechanical keyboard and because i had to wait so long to get it. (it was always out of stock) However, when recording the backlighting profiles I noticed that the F9 Key (which is u...

if you don't switch keyboards often using the same mini USB cable, it's not a problem at all. If your Ducky is plugged in a 100 percent of the time, you shouldn't have any trouble with the connector. Okay thank you. It will be plugged in 24/7. And by any chance, does anyone know how often Ducky re-...

I'm about to purchase a Ducky Shine 2 (one it comes back in stock). Do you think this issue is bad enough for me to reconsider?

Personally, I LOVED the default keyboard that HP shipped with their PCs in like 2008 or 2009.

With the Chinese New Year approaching, I was wondering if anyone has heard anything about the possibility of a "Year of the Snake" Edition keyboard from Ducky? If so, have you heard anything about its f...

Thanks for the help guys, gonna pick up a keyswitch sampler kit first just to make sure that I want black.

I can't remember anything useful about the Meka, but I would personally choose the Ducky without a shadow of a doubt. I can't really justify it though, someone who knows more about the Meka might argue that it's a better board, and they could be right, but I would personally be happier with a Ducky...

Yeah, I was looking at either the Ducky Shine 2 or the Thermaltake Meka G1 Illuminated.
Any opinions about which is better?

looking for my first mechanical keyboard, any help would be great. Used for gaming and typing. Needed: Mechanical / MX Black Full Backlighting Media keys Full size (not 10-keyless) Either no wrist-rest or it must be removable Optional but preferred: Under $150 Dedicated Media Keys Macro keys EDIT: I...
