  • I thought I would really like having backlight and paid extra for it. I find I almost never use it. I'd probably be just as happy having a booklight to attach to my keyboard for the offtime I need to see the keys in the total dark.

    When I do use it, I use plain white (or the closest approximation) solid on for all keys all the time. No effects no movement.

    Why would you want breathing or other animations? Is it an aesthetic thing or is there some utility? I have a low low end kb that defaults to something like this everytime it gets powered off/on and I can only use it in extreme emergencies because it's very annoying to me. But given the popularity there must be some benefit.

    Is there anything unique to mkbs with regards to lighting? Can't all kinds of kbs have backlight?
