I don't like Cherry Red Switches?

Why does green being a moderate wavelength automatically make it the most comfortable color for your eyes? How are you connecting those two things together? Green and blue are generally uncomfortable colors for bright lights because the cones in your eyes are extremely sensitive to those frequency ranges (especially green). If you have to stare at a bright light red is the most comfortable of the three primary colors.

You are referring to the color of the backlight correct? How much time are you going to spend looking at the keyboard let alone with the backlight on? Ask yourself does the color really matter so much that you're willing to buy this over a better keyboard in the same price range?

My professor and my book told me exactly the opposite of what you're saying . Red is the most uncomfortable light for your eyes . It's said that green light will not put strain on your eyes . Therefore , you won't lose concentration
For Example : Traffic Light : Red-Yellow-Green for human eyes
Red : put strain on your eyes . Alert you danger
Yellow : same but on a lower degree
Green : don't put strain on your eyes . Give you an easy feeling that you should cross the street

Give me time . It will take time to translate Jap to Eng
Btw , I have a RGB gaming mouse (Light customisable) . I can't stand red .
Theme : "目に優しい色" Comfortable Color for your eyes .
Edit : Forget what i just said , i don't have time for this . I have job to do (not even have a holiday , mon->sun no rest) . And i just realize my English skill is not good at all
I throw a similar topic here then (Google translate should help , maybe not )

I think a keyborad should emit something, but maybe not visable light, maybe micro waves or gamma waves.

Then we can say "this post gave me cancer" literally. Beautiful.

Here is a graph of the sensitivity of the three cone types in your eye (S, M, and L) to different frequencies of visible light:


If you combine them you will get the total sensitivity as seen here:


Notice how green is the most sensitive color because it overlaps two cones both near their peak response points. This is one of the reasons why hunters for example use red lights at night (or at least they should, not all of them do). Your eye isn't very sensitive to the color so your pupils can remain adjusted to the ambient light (dilated for seeing well in darkness in this case). Less shift in lighting also means less eye muscle activity which has the added benefit of inducing less eye strain.

The second graph looks like a normal distribution, not the sum of the values of the previous graph at any given x value, which it's supposed to be.

Disclaimer: He's still right, even if the graph he provided is technically not the right one.

Yes that was the term I was looking for. Technically I never used the word sum. I said "combine them". Which implies sum but I meant calculating total sensitivity (which is a bit trickier).

It has cherry reds and is considered a gaming keyboard, however I don't really game too much and when I do I use an xbox controller.

I'm finding it really hard to type on. No initial resistance bump like with rubber dome keyboard (which i knew before buying). Am I just not giving it enough time?

I feel my problem is I knock the keys really easy and I'm typing random letters all over the place, with the cheapy rubber dome keyboards this was never an issue because they require a much higher amount of force initally. Would I be better off with browns? I don't think I could handle the blues and there crazy clicking.

Cherry Black is the one you need,

Solid keys, need more weight on each key to type... They are far more silent than Blue Brown and Green but I would class these as Gaming & Common Productivity... whereas the Red's would be for 1 people who prefer it and 2 'JUST GAMING'

Also simple solution for backlit keys... do not use them and learn how to type. The beast below is literally the everlasting mechanical keyboard. Epic build quality and comes in Black or Red cherry keys. PS/2 only because that is just the masterrace of adapters for these keyboards LOLOLOL

Oh right I never mentioned I got the logitch G710+ with MX browns and it's ok. Not as great as I thought it would be. It's definitely better than a membrane keyboard but it wasn't a night and day difference like I thought it would be. I'll be getting a sampler kit in the future to try out other key types.
