My personal experience with WASD keyboards is not good. I really tried to like my WASD but it has broken twice in the last 6 months. While still under warranty, YOU pay for shipping which gets expensive replacing 2-3 keys each time. Bottom line, get your keyCAPS from WASD but get your keyBOARD elsewhere.

dtl7Funny thing is (While i am not questioning your personal experience as i like WASD but prefer KUL) WASD Keycaps are really mediocre quality since they are nether PBT Nor are they in fact ABS doubleshot..They are not even particularly thick from the examples i have seen. So honestly i'd steer clear of their Keycaps IMO.

LiquidEvilGamingI'm with you on this one, @LiquidEvilGaming. The keycaps really are mediocre and I replaced them with the PBT doubleshots from a previous drop. I just don't use my Code board often enough as it's on my extra computer at home.

LiquidEvilGamingApologies, I should have been more explicit. The reference to WASD keycaps was not based upon a recommendation of quality, there is quite an extensive consensus that they are nothing special in that regards. The attribution was based upon the extensive ability to customize WASD keycaps. If an individual is looking for reasonably priced keycaps which can be customized exactly as desired, without concern for above average quality, then I have nothing bad to say about WASD.
However, if an individual is looking for a keyboard then pass on WASD. My experience with their 'clicks lifecycle' failure rate is at least four orders of magnitude different than advertised...

dtl7Ah thanks for the clarification,and while i do not in any way doubt the validity of your bad experience with WASD...i will say their reputation on the MechanicalKeyboard Subreddit is fairly good overall. Sorry you had such a bad experience with them =/ Always sucks when that happens.
Cheers

How do you do per-key RGB lighting on a Shift V2?

I saw the online configurator that lets you do this on the Shift V1, where it spits out a compiled firmware file to flash. The V2 doesn't seem to have this function in the Windows configurator, though. I can't imagine the answer here is "you're going to have to manually write the hex for every key in QMK, compile it, and flash that".
