Have you ever wondered why wireless keyboards are built without LED indicators for buttons like Num Lock, Caps Lock, and Scroll Lock? Well, wireless keyboards feed on batteries, so even if LEDs are known to be light on energy consumption, having them on will take from the keyboard's life. Keyboard Leds provides the most needed indicators, along with additional customization options.

The tool's main purpose is to offer users a way to check the state of the lock buttons. While it delivers on that promise, Keyboard Leds is also capable of signaling the buttons both in the system tray and desktop. If the three buttons at the bottom of the UI can be clicked to activate or deactivate the keys, the rest of the UI is reserved for customizing the tray icon and the on-screen display.

In case you don't need the additional shortcuts, you can deactivate them in a jiffy. However, some activities, like gaming, for example, would benefit from the on-screen display feature, as it would be non-productive to keep bringing the UI up just for checking if CapsLock is on. Of course, if the screen text and background are too intrusive, you can change its size, color, opacity, and you can even instruct it to hide after a certain time.

There are a couple of checkboxes that make the program boot on startup and emit a beep sound whenever a lock state changes.

In short, Keyboard Leds is a simple tool that fills a gap that wireless keyboards did not. There's nothing much to expect from such a tool, but it manages to surprise you with a good deal of customization for key signaling and an easy-to-use layout.
