Will this work with my PS5?

What is the lifespan of the switches?
The keys are rated for an operating life of approximately 20 million characters.
Is the cable detachable?

Troubleshooting
Keyboard keys are not registering inputs.
Disconnect the USB cable and plug it into a different USB port. Ensure the USB port is not currently disabled in your device's power settings.
Lighting effects are not displaying or look dim.
Verify the USB connection is secure. Ensure the device is connected to a high-power USB port; avoid using passive USB hubs that may not provide sufficient power.
Specific keys feel sticky or unresponsive.
Use compressed air to blow out any debris trapped under the keycaps. Do not remove keycaps unless you are comfortable with the maintenance process.

Compatibility Note: While it is compatible with a vast array of hardware, ensure your console or device settings are configured to recognize an external keyboard if the system does not detect it automatically.
Care Instructions:
- Cleaning: Keep the keyboard free of dust and debris by using a soft, dry cloth. For deeper cleaning, use a can of compressed air to remove particles trapped between the switches.

- Maintenance: Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners, as these can damage the matte finish of the ABS casing.
