i desolder the black switches and solder blues in.

i still dont like the kind of blue transparent housing and the height of it.

Nice mod. I first saw Sandy55 do that black to blues swap and it's a royal PITA with all the leds.

How long did it take?

Dye the housing! Or paint it from the inside.

P.S. I'm still waiting for the first keyboard with LED RGB caps.

hard to say, how long it takes...
multiple sessions 6-8h

in real the colors are darker and more powerful.

Stylish. (Although I think Christmas trees look best when on fire.) Do you have a picture collection of differently configured LED keyboards from which you pick photos by demand, or do you mod a keyboard for each post?

Preventive mods... :lol:

Btw the first one was just an experiment to have the dual color legends more than a style exercise.

In Italy we call that kind of color matching "Americanata", do you need a translation ? :lol:

I found the translation, but your word is better *lol*.

I happen to have one spare black case for a TG3 BL82 board - it should be the same as a Deck82 case.

I'll trade a green (toxic) case for a black one if anyone's interested.
