Its a Razer Blackwidow elite I got for cheap, the listing just said “sold as is” and had some pictures. Didn’t mention anything about bad keys. Kicking myself now for trying to cheap out. My question is if there is anything I can do to repair it. If so is it worth doing? The switches are not hot swappable if that’s important.
If I wanted a mechanical keyboard, I’d buy a mechanical keyboard.
If I wanted an electronics project, then I’d repair it.
Not to diss electronics projects. I’ve done those myself, and they can be rewarding. But there’s a reason that repair shops aren’t much of a thing any more. Just usually doesn’t make sense economically.
If you very specifically want an exact keyboard that’s out-of-production and where the only way to get one is to repair, or you very specifically want some particular feel that isn’t available commercially, then maybe it’s worth putting time into it, aside from the project value.
