Keychron K4v2, put some LSA Keychron Developer caps on it. Required a little modification to shave down the stabs but I like the look, now I just need to fix the sound since the reduced mass of the cap leaves some snap back ping on larger keys.

I've just learned that no matter how "happy" I am that I'm gonna want to mix the cap situation up within a year. So I just never stop watching for that next cool cap set.

yeah I probably swap sets about once a year. Its been a while since I got a new set so generally I just rotate through my current collection.

This however was a new set because I dont have anything quite like it.

Here are some of the other sets that go in and out of use :)

Oh nice. You put low profile keycaps in the k4? Are the switches low profile too? I didn't realize you could turn a normal board low profile.

no, sadly low profile switches dont fit the same socket. this looks slick but its not low profile when compared to an actual low profile keyboard.
