So I've been trying to complete my setup with a nice wireless white and or black mechanical FULL keyboard (meaning I want a 10 key num pad thingy) with RGB lighting. Individually lit keys. This appearantly doesn't exist. Or does it? Anyone know of a keyboard that fits this description? Attached photo of said setup, I'll make a list of its contents of anyone wishes. Thanks in advance.

I don't want any wires running on my desk and I don't want to drill a hole in it to run the wire under. I'm not a competitive gamer or anything so wireless does me just fine.

lots of mechs use wires not wireless.

you either get 60% or 80% KBs in wireless, since they're usually the perfect size for people and RGB takes too much battery over the long run.

probably a filco magictouch for you, since it's the only wireless fullsize keyboard brand that comes to mind.

 

idk

thats your problem. You just killed your battery life.

 

This doesn't esist

I found the Drevo Calibur it has RGB but it doesn't have the 10 key that I want. I'm just very stubborn about what I want. :/

So even if it's not full size it there a wireless keyboard that isn't tenkeyless? I use drafting software and the numpad is vital

It's not that hard to mod a keyboard to run wirelessly. The main issue that you're going to run into is battery life with RGB. Fancy lights take up a lot of energy, so you're not likely to find a full size keyboard that's wireless and will be able to manage that. 

 

Why is it that you want RGB? I personally have never cared for lighting effects (If I wanted effects with RGB LEDs, I'd just build a giant wall of neopixels), I just like how easy it is to swap colors on a board. However, with any custom board, you could easily run SIP sockets, and that basically takes away that advantage of RGB.
