Cherry Blues in a Kinesis Advantage

[paddy]

I like the layout of my Kinesis Advantage, but I prefer the tactile feedback of Cherry Blues. I have Cherry Blue switches in my XArmor U9Plus and I really like the way the keys feel. Has anyone put Blues into an Advantage, can I send my keyboard to someone and have them do that?

It can be done. keep in mind the Cherry Brown switches in your Advantage keyboard have diodes in the switch itself. Your Cherry Blues in your XArmor probably don't (the diodes are likely on the pcb) although I'm not positive.

Here is a link to good info on someone who converted their Advantage to Cherry blues:
