Has anyone ever fixed a fried mechanical keyboard? My old Cherry keyboard is wiped out right now. No power reception at all. Not sure how to begin fixing it, and there is very little info online because who is going to fix a keyboard in most circumstances?
My entire computer blew up during a power surge. IDC about the replaceable computer parts, but my keyboard died in the process. It's really old and I can't find a good replacement for it - I've bought a filco, das keyboard, and a Ducky all supposedly with the same cherry color switches and the feeling isn't close enough to commit to wearing it in if I don't have to.
Any thoughts would be really appreciated.
Can't you just salvage the switches?

just buy another one for like 15 bucks from cumb.de . they don't make replacement controllers, so wiring one up is your only real option if it's truly fried (a teensy costs as much as another kb)

I expect OP can send them a polite email explaining his issue.
At worst the will probably offer him a discount.
