Know before you buy
The PBTfans Spark Light R2 set is crafted from high-quality PBT plastic. This material is known for its durability and resistance to the shine that often develops on ABS keycaps over time.
These keycaps are designed for Cherry MX style switches and their clones. As long as your keyboard uses this standard cross-shaped stem, they will be compatible.
The Cherry profile is widely considered the industry standard for comfort. It features a sculpted, ergonomic shape that sits slightly lower than the OEM profile, making it a favorite for long typing sessions.
No, the legends are created using a doubleshot injection process. This means the characters are molded into the keycap itself rather than printed on top, ensuring they will never fade or wear away.
The set arrives in a durable ABS keycap tray with a custom-designed cover. This provides a secure and organized way to store your keycaps when they aren't in use.
