my caps lock key doesn't have the same clicky feeling as the others, it doesn't really depress at all, it works and you can squish it down but it doesn't feel the same at the other keys and about 50% of the time it doesn't work properly (the light doesn't come on) - have i got a faulty key i need to have looked at?
 
Yes, you likely have a faulty key that you need to have looked at...
I would probably try to pop up the keycap to check for something stuck under the key.
But, if you are not comfortable doing that, then certainly take it in for a checkout. It may be something simple that the store can fix up while you wait (or even while you watch :D )

OK thanks! I think i'll take it in and check. Somehow today it seems to work OK, maybe there was a bit of grit stuck in it last night
 
No there is nothing wrong with your key. The caps lock key requires a little more time /pressure for it to go green. But it deactivates like the rest of your keys.
