Keyboard LEDs

peterw8102 opened this issue · comments

The keyboard has D2 and D3 as 3mm LEDs (through hole 3mm from the BOM). I can't see how these work with the MX Cherry Switches in the BOM. There's no room for the LED. I'm assuming I'm missing something? I thought I'd bought the right switches. Any help appreciated.

Hope this explains :)
You'll want to get flangeless 3 mm LEDs. See the BOM for some suggested part numbers.
If for some reason your keys don't have a place to mount LED, perhaps you don't have the original Cherry MX switches?

Brilliant, I do have the right switches and had completely missed those holes! Thank you!
