Deck doubleshots? I wonder if they'll have the unmistakable font. Or let enough light through.

Clear legend doubleshots would be huge. Quality caps for backlights at last. But it can't be that, right?

Case looks like a Ducky Shine /II/III.

Key caps with the same god-awful font that Deck has used in the past. :roll:

Keycaps are an improved version of Deck's legendary PBT Keycaps.

Are there chemists working at the marketing department? Francium = element 87, hassium = element 108.

The names are quite cool. And pretty appropriate for a glow in the dark keyboard!

@BucklingSpring: those are PBT? I didn't realise PBT could be made to work with backlights.

Flourescent would be awesome ... unless they would be radioactive.

Fortunately not! You could probably do some pretty neat fluorescence in plastic. Such tricks as infrared LEDs come to mind: invisible backlight to make the caps mysteriously glow with no leak!

Quick, everyone get into doubleshot PBT ASAP!

Yep they are PBT... That's one of the reasons I really like Deck. Best backlit keycap on the market.
Store's up and selling. Have a look at this site for all the flavors available
