Varmilo Minilo VXT81 Bluebell TKL Hotswap Bluetooth RGB Double Shot ABS Mechanical Keyboard

I really like the keyboard (sound and key layout for programming) but there are some downsides that makes it not my go to reliable input for everything.

First was the failure to be detected when working on BOOT/BIOS settings using wired USB. I had to bring out another USB keyboard to connect on the same port to manage boot settings. I am not sure if this because my PC is quite old however this Varmilo is the only one that could not run in BOOT.

Second, I am an always on computer user to jump back in for quick session and the keyboard freezes once per day, never waking up when hitting the spacebar. I have to unplug the USB cable and re-plug to get it typing again. This gets annoying even though I had set it to never poweroff/sleep - it still does this lockup so I cannot imaging it has anything to do with power conservation sleep as the LED lights are frozen. My last resort is to redo the firmware to see if this "fixes" this hanging problem. The firmware from official site is stated not newer and just wishful thinking perhaps it will reset some gremlins off the shelf.

The build of this is refreshing as I am not planning to build my own. This would be the keyboard I look for when gaming, programming, etc though the boot and other quirks mentioned above one would want to have an extra keyboard around. (3.8/5.0)
