Huntsman Elite Keycap upgrade

I recently purchased a Huntsman Elite and was seriously disappointed to discover that I had picked up the only Razer keyboard that didn't have the secondary/shifted characters illuminated. This is certainly not a feature. :mad_:

If I throw more $$ at this by buying the PBA keycap upgrade, will these keycaps be FULLY illuminated? I'm referring to the number (top row) and punctuation keys. Will I need to purchase any tools separately?

Thanks in advance! :smile_:

Yup, they're fully illuminated. Tools are included (keycap puller and stabilizers).
Thanks Vanguard! I appreciate the fast response!
Are these keys the correct ones for the Huntsman Elite KB?

If so are they an exact match to the keys that come with the Huntsman Elite? (shape & size)
Hey @Razerstein that’s right, I did the same upgrade; it’s kind of worth it, a definite improvement but I’d prefer to pay a couple extra bucks up front to get the elite keycaps with the Elite keyboard. Might get me kicked out but the HyperX pudding keycaps have PBT tops, feel as good and spread a lot more RGB love, check them out before you pull the trigger

Yes, they're compatible. There are 2 sets of bottom keys for Razer's non-standard layout (like Huntsman Elite) and standard bottom row like BlackWidow V3.
i have the same issue, i have a PT layout keyboard of black widow chroma v2 tournment edition and the numbers are not iluminated :eek_: i reallly dont know what to do because i believe razer keycap set is in us and uk layout. i dont understand why the numbers arent iluminated.
Bought this PBT-Keycap-Set - and sent it back. It's only UK/US-Layout. What about a Layout for DE-Layout? Why I can't buy this, though german language countries have some more buyers than UK? Will there be such a set for DE-layout?
