Spilled Pepsi in my Corsair keyboard last night. Now some buttons don’t work. RIP lol

I’ve been wanting a new keyboard for a while anyway so now’s the time. Any suggestions?

    Your keyboard probably still works if you unplug it and wash it (including some soaking to get whatever Pepsi residue inside the switches out), but it’ll take a few days to dry back out.

    But for new keyboards, I just echo that you want hot swappable switches, desoldering switches sucks so hard. My keyboard is 12+ years old, so it probably isn’t sold anymore
