Visitor Q:
...how do you like them?

For an RGB solution, they are great. The color distribution is excellent - although some don't care for the pearl color when they're not lit up. Their shape matches that of a standard concave button, but the material is a harder plastic so it's not the same as older buttons. They are expensive. Some have complained that the button tends to vibrate when pressed. Randy has advised that this can be corrected by manually stretching the spring a bit to remove any play. My only complaint is this - I purchased a bunch of ICE buttons, then some more at a later date, so some of the colors don't match. Also, one of the LEDs went bad and again, there's no easy way to replace with a matching color. But this is really a RGB LED issue and not specific to the ICE buttons.

I'm one that doesn't like the pearl white when not lit so I bout the GGG Novagems.  They are great.  I have red and blue and think they look better when not lit than the white.  They also look great when lit!

You mean the actual white colors of the buttons don't match or when they are lite?

Have you had the vibration issue yourself?

I have heard this as well, that a lot of people do not like the look of them when they are not lite but really, I am more concerned as when they are lite... More or less the whole point really of lighting up buttons.

The Novegems do look great, I admit but you can not configure them in the way you can the ice.

Do they have the vibration issue as well?
