Please find a keyboard for me!

Eragaurd

I'm looking for a TKL mx brown mechanical keyboard with either white or rgb lighting. It shouldn't look very gamery, preferably with double shot PBT keycaps. If I can's find a suitable keyboard with these features, I will probably buy the Ducky ONE 2 TKL Skyline PBT [MX Brown]. It doesn't have RGB, but aside than that it's basically perfect

It needs to be available in a nordic layout and able to ship to sweden without an extreme shipping cost.

If you must have lighting, get this one https://www.coolermaster.com/catalog/peripheral/keyboards/masterkeys-pro-s-white/ there is a version with PBT caps, or you can get caps yourself, cm uses standard sized keys, easy to change. Or if you are wiling to skip lighting, take a look at this one : https://mechanicalkeyboards.com/shop/index.php?l=product_detail&p=3545 quality is superb.

You will regret not getting RGB when at nights you turn off your lights and black in the dark.  You will kick yourself for not getting RGB, because once its dark you can't see sh*T.  Do you want wireless ?  Also are you hell bent on brown switches, because I can't find any with brown switches.  Would you go blue switches, then we can get a nice TKL mechanical and RGB.  Most people want wireless when they go TKL as the whole point is portability.

Lighting is not enough? It must be RGB? :D Blue switches are loud as fuck, also, some people just want smaller keyboard, not necessarily to lug it around.

The reason I want TKL is for ergonomics.

Ok, so you want more of a Linear feel ?  So its smooth and not type writer feel ?  Also what is your budget because there is a slew of 40 to 60 dollar TKL rgb or you can go premium at near 100 bucks.  Also if wireless is not a concern then your options open up as there really isn't any solid TKL that are wireless and what not.

I'm not the op, turtle. Also, you can get non linear, but tactile switches, there are more than just clicky tactile and loud blues, tactile and not as loud is also an option.

Also theres 40 to 60 dollar mechanical TKL and RGB.  I mean we either get you a no name company for really cheap or you go with a known vendor and pay a bit more.

Red Dragon is the best out of the unkown companies.  But you get what you pay for and at 35 bucks don't expect the same feel compared compared to a keyboard double it's price.  I want to know your budget to get the best keyboard possible for the price range you want.  Or else there are ton of 30 or 40 dollar keyboards and I haven't used any so I can't throw a comment at you but once again you get what you pay for ya know...

The Ducky One 2 TKL or the Cooler Master MasterKeys Pro S are your best bets.  You might be able to find some aftermarket Nordic keycaps for the CM but they are quite rare.

Ive used the Duky One 2 TKL.  The cooler master I have no idea about but I can tell you the Ducky my friend has as soon as I sat behind it I was already used to the keyboard.  We know mice can throw some curve balls at you and takes time to get used to but not the Ducky.  I gamed a bit on it and typed some stuff and told him it is a great keyboard for the price.  Probably the best bang for your buck.  These known vendors spike up the prices of these keyboards because they know people will buy it.

I second the Ducky One 2 TKL or the Cooler Master MasterKeys Pro S, and source some aftermarket keycaps to your liking.

Browns to blues is quite a hard curve. While browns have a nice middle ground of having a slight tactile bump but around the same weight as Reds, Blues are extremely tactile and clicky and require you to overcome the bump with a bit more force due to the click jacket.
