Huntsman Elite Key question


I jsut got the Huntsman Elite and I am wondering if there is a setting I can change that will illuminate the full number keys? The !@#$%^&*()_+ symbols are not illuminated and it is frustrating me.

Thanks in advance

You can't do it, until you change keycaps to some other, that DOES have "cutted" !@#$%^&*()_+ symbols (they're only printed, and cannot pass light through it), so LED light could come out of it.

Every cherry style (with "+") keycap will be compatible.
But some sets will be not compatible - I mean, Razer uses some different space bar size, ctrl key, alt key - as shown: https://www.wasdkeyboards.com/keycap-compatibility
But other keys will fit perfectly.

I ordered some pudding key caps for my Huntsman to try out. Yes I know the bottom row of keys will not work but the rest should be fine. We will see how it goes.

Oh, great. Just post a pic of it, when you'll install it 😃

Sure I will post a picture but the keycaps will not be here for at least 2 weeks...coming from china. I could not find them shipping from the US.

I'm actually looking to replace my a,s,d,w with a textured feeling keycap but atm I'm at a loss on where to go for something like that. That's good to know every cherry style (with "+") keycap will be compatible. Would anyone happen to have some good sites for custom textured keys?

currently thats exactly what I'd be looking for but im not sure if they will work with my huntsman

My key caps order came today. As you can see I was able to replace all but 3 key caps. The space bar was very close but the side supports did not line up just right. The 3 bottome kets on the left are slightly different than the stock keys but they still work and should be fine for me. The 2 keys on the bottom right were just a no go for this. Would be nice to find something for those keys.

Hi Brlowe,

I was wondering how you removed the larger keys like backspace. I tried using a palstic key remove, the one shaped like a 'O' with the plastics hands underneath, but couldn't remove back space.

Thanks!

I just used a cheap wire key puller from Amazon. Some keys required a good pull.

I just purchased this keyboard and was wondering about the larger keys as I noticed they have some extra pins of some sort on the sides. Were you able to remove those without breaking them?

All the keys came off without breaking anything. The new space bar is close to fitting except for one of those extra bars on the end. I may try to modify the new space bar to work in the future.
