K10 HE

I have only used my My K10 HE Pro on my Omarchy Linux machine, and it started with the repeating tilde problem. Next, I reset to factory defaults (FN+j+z), though I had made zero alterations to the keyboard. Red flashing backlight confirmed the reset.Immediately after, the tilde key quit working alt

Here is a list. And one focused on availability and ISO variants. At least the K10 HE doesn't have blinding light, but the selection of "switches" is much lower (many orders of magnitude) for a Keychron HE keyboard. Gotcha: Pictures on the product pages can be deceptive, e.g., if the keycaps are shi

Here is a list of full-size Keychron keyboards. Be aware of: Keycaps that are not shine-through, even if pictures seem to suggest they are. Resellers often also list it incorrectly (probably honest mistakes) The blinding light. The very limited selection of shine-through keycaps, especially for ISO

Re "The F1, F2, etc. are not lit at all": Yeah, that is the case for at least the Keychron K10 HE and K10 V2 (AKA 'K10 QMK') It is a design blunder by Keychron: On the blinding light keyboards, like the V6, F1-F12 were properly lit.

Re "... it "presses" these keys without my interaction. It's NOT me pressing the key and then the key sticking on.": That isn't a good sign. It isn't a firmware problem. It is the dreaded hardware problem from the initial Kickstarter fiasco. There isn't any known way to fix it yourself (and there is
