Didn’t even know that sort of site was a thing. I do have a few kits I want to pass onto people who will be able to use them. Thanks!

Are you in the US? I see a few XDA sets in darker schemes like this one: amazon link for dark theme set $25

Double check and make sure it has the coverage for your specific keyboard, I don’t recall which brand(s) but something like Razor or the like have non-standard spacebar size 5.5u , etc.

Am with kilted_ on this one, possibly look at one of the other uniform profile like KAM as he mentioned, or DSA. XDA is not very comfortable to type on extensively, and tends to wobble on lighter switches.

I’ll toss another silent tactile into the ring: Durock Shrimp tactiles. I use Zilent 62g, U4 62g, and Shrimps interchangeably and like them the most for the consistency(least spring pings/scratchiness), smoothness, and bump.

You’re right. I had a brainfart and confused that bt function would be disabled without battery. And you wanted a hard switch, sorry.

You would need a pcb with matching mounting style, and with a jst connector for the daughter board - will be tough. That said, you should be able to use the board without the BT, just don’t install a battery and use 100% wired as you want.
