I did not realize the keys were solid until power went out the other day.

Does Keychron sell full sets of keys that you can actually see which key is which via the backlight? If Keychron does not who does? Preferably keycaps that feel the same as Keychron's do. I have a K10 Max and a K1 Max QMK.

They're usually called "Shine Through" as far as I know. Here are some from Keychron. Some are named explicitly shine through while others are not. The filter should be trustworthy though.

Note on the Cherry Profile Double-Shot PBT Shine-Through Keycap Set: “The legends are printed on the top center of the keycaps, If your keyboard features south-facing LEDs, this will significantly reduce the shine-through effect.”

Thanks. It looks like there are a number that will fit the K10, but none for the K1. But it is a great starting place!
