Key cap help

Go to solution Solved by NF-A12x25,

Romer g caps are very difficult to find especially in a taller profile. I would just bind moving keys to something you can reach better, but you can also find a Romer G adapter to Cherry MX keycaps and then get a tall keycap, ideally an SA or similar ESC cap- since the escape key/fn row is the tallest.

 

You can 3D print this or get someone that has a 3D printer to do so, then find an SA profile esc cap.

Or, you can 3D print a customizable romer g cap 

A few months ago I lost about half of my left ring finger in a work related injury. Because of that I have a hard time pushing some keys like “S” and “W”.  (It’s really hurting me CS:go games). So my thought is maybe I can find some taller key caps that I could reach with my “nub”. I currently have a Logitech g613 keyboard. I’ve never changed a key before but from my research (google) I would need to find “Romer- g” compatible caps. Anyone know where I could find some super tall keys, or maybe another solution?

I'm sorry to say this, but I think the keycaps that G613 uses is already one with standard height.

May I suggest to 3d print a romer-G compatible cap instead? since it also saves you from buying 80ish keycaps just to use one (If taller caps  that fits your needs exist at all).

 

Or maybe glue / double tape something lightweight on top of the existing caps to add height.

You need SA Profile keycaps. Not sure which are compatible with your specific keyboard.

I don't badmouth others' input, I'd appreciate others not badmouthing mine. *** More below ***
