Drevo gramr reswitching+XDMOD
Posted: 10 May 2019, 20:51
I got myself a Drevo gramr to test out the layout and outemu brown keyswitches. The build quality of this keyboard isn't anything special, but its not bad. After a few days of usage i really started to get annoyed by the keyswitches, i decided to order Gateron greens to replace them with.
Once the switches arrived i got to work. One thing i didn't think of before reswitching is that the backlight is very annoying. These LEDs have very small legs. They are not hard to remove, just very annoying once you have done the first 20.
In the end it was worth it. I like greens much more then the stock browns. I also decided to replace the numlock, CAPSlock, and scroll lock indicators with dim green LEDs for a subtle accent color.
