RASPBERRY PI / ACCESSORIES / KEYBOARDS AND MICE / KEYBOARD WITH BLUE-TYPE MECHANICAL SWITCHES AND LED BACKLIGHTS
DESCRIPTION
If this keyboard doesn't catch your eye, we don't know what will! It's cool, it's colorful, and it's
clicky
in the best way, and it'll make you feel like you're operating some kind of retro-futuristic
typewriter. It's the Keyboard with Blue-type Mechanical Switches and LED Backlights! With 87
keys and rows that are backlit by LEDs, you'll be hacking, coding and gaming with unparalleled
style. The six rows from the top down light up red, white, green, blue, orange, and purple–but it
doesn't stop there!
There are six built-in LED backlight modes (and even more sub-modes!) that'll keep you
mesmerized for hours on end:
Traveling mode; the light travels around the keyboard one key by one key, ending at the
"O" key and repeating.
Breathing LED backlight mode; the brightness of the backlight cycles from off to its
brightest setting.
Spreading mode; the backlight defaults OFF, but each key you press will release a ripple of
LEDs around it.
Lights ON mode; all 6 colors of LED backlight are always ON.
Gaming mode; ASDW, ESC, and arrow keys are the only keys lit; there are also 5 sub-
modes within this mode.
The keys which you press will light ON for a few seconds, and recline gradually (this is our
favorite).
