M0118 sold, HAD caps price reduced

ThereminGoat posted a wordy review of the MX2A RGB Black on his site.
TL;DR: They need to be broken in to distribute the factory lube. There is less wobble. However, premium linear switches from the competition, and even the MX Black Clear Top ("new Nixies") are smoother and have less wobble ...

I'm quite interested in how they behave in terms of stem wobble and scratchiness

bump, reduced prices

Are they individually addressable LEDs or are they part of a LED matrix, driven by a LED driver chip?
If a LED driver, you could find the chip on the board (or the QMK source for the DZ64RGB) and then look up its documentation to see what the voltages is produces.

Looked it up in my original ...

Little update for those who are interested.
Was analyzing the LEDs a bit and checking the pins with a multimeter, but the results are "interesting". If they were WS2812B or SK6812, I expected around 5V on the Vcc and Vss pins, but it was only 1.9V on each LED pin (except Vss) and a global ground pin ...

What you're describing is called "underglow", "side-glow" or "side-lighting".
"Backlighting" is what the PCB already has.

Thanks, I always confuse those terms :roll: , updated the post.


I wonder if there exists a type of LED in the right size with reverse pinout to the LEDs already installed ...

Hello guys,
I have a question for an upcoming project. I really like the DZ65RGB in my Tofu acrylic case, but sadly it doesn't have unerglow, only per-key RGB, and there are only solder PCBs with underglow. So I thought, why not adding underglow myself.

Idea 1: Piggyback only power for LED strip ...

DE-ISO caps are in really good condition, without much shine or ...

Have been lurking for a while, and after 3 MX builds I finally made my first custom Alps build. I used Salmon Alps from a ASK and AEK caps on 4pplet's AEKISO60. It was quite the ride and really interesting to tinker with Alps and waxboil and stuff. Still waiting for my case though.
It's not much ...
