The weight isn't an issue

It's issue is tuning with a small cavity

It's aluminum

Has a battery cavity you can use to house a brass plate though

Sugar 65 is the ultra cheap one though

Lucky 65 sell for $60

[charred plank]

It's not perfect but it's $60

Main issue like I said is that it has a plate that's absurdly soft and it lacks the area for tuning easily in the cavity

It's a much thicker plate of aluminum than you'd expect

Weight isn't an issue for it

I'm talking about the board itself

It's just a giant weight itself

But has a small cavity behind the PCB

Which limits ways to tune it and get gain

The weight is just decorative

Correct

It's a decorated cutout on an absurdly thick aluminum board

Not it's real issue

A brass weight that size would cost almost as much as the entire board @patent belfry

Obviously it won't have one

They also list it as an aluminum weight

[crisp patrol]

[charred plank]

you realize it's just a decorative cutout of the body like I said already...

If you want to be semantic you're being an idiot cause semantically anything that adds weight is a weight...

It could be a resin cube and they could call it a weight

Your argument is more it's not brass

Which nobody disagrees on ...

You arent getting a stock $40 brass weight on a $60 board

Who are you arguing with

And what are you even trying to argue

Then you agree with me

So who are you arguing with

[jade lava]

I got the aula f75 for $70 should I cancel? I don’t know what keeb to get for $70 and this was one of the best ones I found someone help?

[glossy mesa]

It'll arrive and it'll be better than what you have
Enjoy it and don't ask for us to give you buyer's remorse

[jade lava]

Bro chill I bought on Amazon so payment hasn’t even gone through yet

[elder owl]

It'll be fine

[spiral mica]

yes

that thing is worth 30 at modt

[noble steppe]

should i buy keyboards from aliexpress? im looking at a vgn a75 rn but i feel like im gonna get scammed

[spiral mica]

its a trustable site if you dont buy it off sketchy sellers

its basically amazon but by a different company

[jade lava]

Then what do I get

[bitter oar]

budget?

[jade lava]

$70 and under

[bitter oar]

check aliexpress pick a board, watch a non affiliate review for that model you picked

$70 is too much for aula f75

[jade lava]

I’m not buying off Ali it takes a month or two to get to me

[bitter oar]

which country

[jade lava]

Us

[bitter oar]

some listings have a delivery guarantee

like 10, 13, 15 days

or do you need a keyboard immediately

[jade lava]

Yea I bought from them not too long ago (2 months ago) and it arrived on Friday

[bitter oar]

i assume it didn’t have a guarantee

[jade lava]

It did but I’d rather have it soon

[bitter oar]

unsure how it is in us but orders over $10 i order usually arrive on 10 days, including weekends

[jade lava]

Idk

[bitter oar]

it’s about 20% cheaper from aliexpress

[jade lava]

Ik

Wb Amazon

@bitter oar

[bitter oar]

they get a bigger cut than aliexpress

sellers

[jade lava]

Ok what’s that supposed to mean

[bitter oar]

seller and amazon get more mone per sale
than seller + aliexpress

[jade lava]

Ok but what’s the best keeb for 70 on ama

[bitter oar]

prob rk r75 at 55

not necessarily better than the aula but it’s cheaper

[jade lava]

What one sounds better

[bitter oar]

about the same ig

not whole alot of difference to the sound when comparing the two, the rk75 may be more neutral’ish and the aula more marbly doesn’t matter all that much

i’d not spend 70 for the f75 tho

really, that board can be gotten off taobao for 27~ + shipping

[jade lava]

So I get the rk? @bitter oar

[bitter oar]

if you can’t find similar boards than that at cheaper then probably yes

go through amazon

[jade lava]

It has silvers so good for gaming?

[bitter oar]

unsure what switches they use but they’re prelubed so fine

[jade lava]

I wish the purple also had mda layout but the caps are silver switch pro

@bitter oar is $70 m75 good?

[bitter oar]

the one with the refrigerator knob? no

[jade lava]

Yea, alr I’ll get the r75 but is it wireless? Idc if it isn’t I just care about sound, quality, and speed

[bitter oar]

it is iirc

[jade lava]

What’s that

[bitter oar]

if i remember correctly or recall correctly

the latency of those boards are usually 12ms~ over 2.4ghz so, fine

[jade lava]

Ok

[bitter oar]

just don’t use bluetooth, it will have the greatest latency of all

[jade lava]

@bitter oar what’s this https://a.co/d/4AFss0H

[bitter oar]

no, older rk boards suck

[jade lava]

Ok

[jade lava]

Is there a difference between the blue and green/black? https://a.co/d/9H6wW7u

[bitter oar]

if the different color versions don’t have different switches no

[jade lava]

Ok

[bitter oar]

i’d check tho it’s weird the different color variants don’t have via/qmk in describtion

ideally buy one with via, but it’s not necessary, decent software

[jade lava]

R75 isn’t wireless which idrc about but idk if it has via

[bitter oar]

it is no?

2.4g atleast

yeah, there are multiple versions of r75’s

[jade lava]

Don’t think so, it doesn’t say

[bitter oar]

there are versions with 2.4g and without (wired)

and via/qmk ones

[jade lava]

@bitter oar after some research apparently rk’s like to blow up so ik not gonna get it

[jade lava]

Is the yz75 good?

Damn

[bitter oar]

iirc only the old models suffered, the more recent not so much

[jade lava]

So should I get it for $70?

[bitter oar]

$70 for a plastic keyboard is an overpay tbh

[jade lava]

Nvm I thought too were talking abt the yz75

[bitter oar]

spend like extra $20 and you have aluminum one

or $20 less and buy a $50 board that’s basicly the same thing

[bitter oar]

just get the r75 or m75 at $55~ as long it doesn’t have the refrigerator knob that’s not even a knob but rather a bt/wired/2.4 switch

[jade lava]

But everyone is saying they blow up even the newer ones

[charred plank]

#peripherals message

This thing with caps and switches didn't cost much more than $70

[bitter oar]

which one was the most recent one that blew up, btw it’s not just rk issue

anything with battery has a chance to blow up

[jade lava]

1 year ago I think

[charred plank]

I noticed people like to just claim blindly anything that's Chinese in this hobby will blow up

Largely just ignorance

[bitter oar]

most people don’t realise that due to the mass of people owning keyboards/mice the more reddit posts about products being defective there will be

for example double clicking issues with logi mouses or such

[jade lava]

Yes but every other server I have been in say rk should be avoid at all costs any other ones?

[bitter oar]

there’s so many people owning the mice there just have to be people with issues due to the thousands of individuals using them

[bitter oar]

which servers

[jade lava]

Mechkeys, pcmr, pchh

[charred plank]

Half of servers say the same about hifiman. It's just a high sails yield product will have some fail

[jade lava]

So do i go for the r75?

[charred plank]

I've also noticed there is a bias on reddit to assume any issue is the companies fault or wide spread if anyone complains about a Chinese product

[bitter oar]

it doesn’t matter sure

[jade lava]

Alr I just wanna get the best with my money

[bitter oar]

there’s a chance they all come from the same factory anyway

[bitter oar]

yeah, and looking at other companies the chinesium fails aren’t even that bad

remember samsung having explosive phones?

and still dad’s S23 ultra battery expanded and the phone died

my a52s 5g battery degraded to basicly 40% within 1.5-2 years of light-moderate usage

and the touchscreen died after warranty

i believe that is pretty outrageous

[jade lava]

@bitter oar is there any way you can look on Amazon for me? To make sure that’s the best one for money, I’m doing farm work rn

[bitter oar]

there are too many boards to choose from, i’d spend like 4 hours searching the best value board, just go to aliexpress, check if they do have that board on amazon and watch a non affiliate review

sorry but no

[jade lava]

Alr

What board do I get off Ali

[bitter oar]

search

[crisp patrol]

realforce

[jade lava]

$70 these are the ones I found so far YZ75 R75 F75 AK820 Pro
What do I get?

It comes with the foam

Is lucky75 good

Ok

[modest condor]

https://imgur.com/a/royal-kludge-is-good-brand-you-should-buy-keyboards-x7LTFwp

[jade lava]

@patent belfry any good keebs on aliexpress under $70 you know about?

@bitter oar what’s a good keeb off Ali for $70 and under

[chilly perch]

Column...

[pure nest]

yunzii y75 are amazing keyboards for relatively cheap

last I checked epomaker made some good budget keyboards too

[pure nest]

this keyboard got pretty popular for being an amazing budget keyboard there are a bunch of videos on youtube going over it

[elder owl]

AK820 pro can be found for that cheap

Knob is wobbly though

[jade lava]

Yes I just bought that for $60

[elder owl]

Oh

which switches?

[jade lava]

Woopty doo dah

[jade lava]

Gift

[elder owl]

those are solid

[jade lava]

Ye

[elder owl]

my TH80 pro has a much better knob

[jade lava]

Can I touch it

[elder owl]

but I think I might have a lemon

...

bruh

[jade lava]

Ay Jo

Jk

[elder owl]

anyway yea the knob is pretty cheap feeling

I'm probably swapping mine out on the AK820 pro

cause the rest of the board is pretty nice

It's great for bringing around as it's pretty light

actually really light

and the screen is a nifty feature that's fun for a week and just exists

[charred plank]

Found a pretty cool way to fix most of the high pitched sounds to lucky 65

I wanted to reinforce the stock plate so I tensioned a andesite copper foil sheet on then cut out all the holes with an exacto knife then put a sheet of the same thing (with painters tape between them because it's conductive on the sticky side too)

[solid spindle]

Hey! I'm in the market for a keyboard with a budget of $200 USD, and I'm hoping for one that includes the following:

• Aluminum faceplate
• Linear switches (I play a lot of FPS games)
• Detachable cable
• Hot-swappable switches
• Dark keycaps
• 100%

I'd love to hear any recommendations! Thanks!

[spiral mica]

infi75/infi75 lite

[elder plover]

looking for an id on this switch

also i wanna put together a 100% keyboard with thesae switches. i have no clue what im looking for besides i want it to be hot swap, black shine through caps, and a black base

some recommendations would be welcome!

i dont want rgb either just some white leds will do fine. like the board in the background of my photo

[solid spindle]

https://mechanicalkeyboards.com/products/ttc-gold-pink-37g-linear-plate-mount-lubed

Not 100% sure.

[charred plank]

Only thing I need to do now to get the keyboard sounding perfect is put a brass weight where the battery used to be and put sa keycaps on top

[pure nest]

whats the purpose of that coil cord thing?

i get that you wouldn’t yank on either connectors when moving it around and its small and clean but do you really move around your keyboard that much

ive been maining a usb c for a while with a laptop so I have to unplug frequently and ive never had issues

seems super cosmetic

[charred plank]

I switch position between typing and gaming but it's mainly for the aesthetic

[spiral mica]

and it is

[pure nest]

right

i see some on temu for 8-12 usd are those reliably serviceable?

oh

[spiral mica]

its just a cable I mean

it would work

or at least should

[charred plank]

Use AliExpress instead but yea

[spiral mica]

but coiled cables are pain in the ass if you change keyboard or move the keyboard

[pure nest]

it was just a quick google search to see the general pricing

[pure nest]

how so

do they get mangled and stuff

[spiral mica]

its a large long thing that sits on your table

[charred plank]

I never had issues with them but they're mainly just for aesthetics

[spiral mica]

and is not flexible at all

[charred plank]

They are basically a normal USBc that looks good

[pure nest]

lmao alright

i am using wireless most of the time anyways so ill pass

thanks for info

[charred plank]

Only thing left to finish the sound is the put a brass weight where the battery used to be and to install s a form factor keycaps

[ancient fjord]

Can't say it's perfectly in your budget but I quite love the keychron Q6, it's a steel plate, but otherwise it mostly hits what you're looking forhttps://www.keychron.com/collections/custom-keyboards/products/keychron-q6-qmk-custom-mechanical-keyboard

I personally don't like their keycaps but it's a feel for me I don't like

And switches are hotswappable

[eternal ore]

Hey all, mechanical switches for keyboards, is it always "red switches" for the silent options? I'm so confused with all the brands n which colour switches I should be looking at....I just need one for quiet typing....some mention linear, some say tactile....sorry to be a pain 😢😁

[scarlet torrent]

guys

I caved

the way this keyboard sounds for it's price and the fact it's freaking metal

even my akko is plastic and more expensive

it's good

my akko keyboard frame has so many scratches

the fact that I have to use a god damn flathead

to disassemble the kb

do u think the mchose for what it is

is a decent kb

for the avg user

the kb I js sent

an aluminium prebuilt that's cheaper

I got them in matcha latte switches

https://vt.tiktok.com/ZS25oVWFG/

this post got to me

coz like my current keyboard is the Akko 5075B+

but ngl, the switches sound a lot better than what an akko switch comes stock

my 5075B+ is like

even aft I put some tape

it's not like buttery ykyk

what do u look in a good kb

my akko is in bad shape

at least the matcha keycaps save some of it

[eternal ore]

So Ive finished at work. Is there a cheap (less than £50) mechanical quiet / silent keyboard or what is the switch, key colour I should be looking for as I'm totally confused by linear, tactile, membrane, mechanical like, yellow, brown, black switches

[balmy dawn]

the fact that they put 399 yen on the ad

[elder plover]

cant tell is this has shine through keycaps

https://mechanicalkeyboards.com/products/keychron-q6-max?variant=48103759020332

do they make shinethrough ones?

[chilly perch]

You can buy shine through caps of course, but those are not

[chilly perch]

Make sure you get south facing shine thru caps if you do so

[elder plover]

if i order without switches will it come with caps too?

does keychron sell caps with the correct glyphs for media keys etc?

[chilly perch]

Im not sure on that, I would suspect if you dont get switches u dont get caps but yeah idk

They very well could

[elder plover]

i'll look into the keycaps

[scarlet torrent]

keycaps are cheap anyws

[bright pendant]

Evening chaps and chaps! Got a curious issue with my Corsair Strafe that I'm wondering if you've encountered before?

[outer shuttle]

whats mathca?

[eternal ore]

So I was getting help, I've looked in AliExpress now and wondered while would be the best for actual silent, no noise????

[cunning anvil]

i have lemons

theyre quite quiet

[eternal ore]

Thank you, do you find they have much wobble, movement?

[cunning anvil]

i personally have not noticed anything like that, but i also only care about how quiet it gets 😅

[magic wolf]

A switch can only do so much

The case. Material. And everything in between would have the most impact

You'd be looking at a plastic case and a plastic framed gasket

[uncut fjord]

Heyo, anybody know how far self-charging keyboards have come/if they are on the market yet? I remember they were proposed quite a few years ago and some models were tested at that time

[cunning anvil]

wireless

but you have to keep typing or it dies

[uncut fjord]

never having to charge it as it converts excess energy of keystrokes (or even scrolling) into usable electrical energy. Paired with a battery that can take lots of charging cycles and you get a keyboard you rarely have to charge

[chrome fjord]

hey i recently got a $120 giftcard for best buy so im looking for a tkl or 75% keyboard with switches that are close to hyperx reds

[shrewd gull]

https://www.lofree.co/pages/flow-lite?utm_source=ig&utm_medium=Instagram_Stories&utm_campaign=120210792553290515&utm_content=120210911025500515&utm_term=120210811930330515&utm_id=120210792553290515&fbclid=PAZXh0bgNhZW0BMAABptHTlju9Mk1oQDwYUi-63NHkuS1Y4l7dhQgSIkIZ1MGBLrhWx5-GFSZX3g_aem_SUmUp1pS7aErjHFssjXXMQ&campaign_id=120210811930330515&ad_id=120210911025500515

Y’all have any idea if this is a good keyboard? I’m thinking about the flow lite 100

[oblique mantle]

I'm looking for a relatively cheap (USD) 100% keyboard that would preferably be barebones as I already have switches and keycaps but I'm willing to get a fully biult keyboard. Any recommendations?

[proper dagger]

corsair k65+ is solid

its 160 so youd have to pay the diference but the switches are really solid and sound pretty good for a prebuilt

[bitter oar]

looks like $50 board

it’s overpriced at best and, you will well obviously pay alot for branding, not for value

[proper dagger]

yeah but for what bestbuy sells

the switches sound pretty nice

[chrome fjord]

then what would you recommend?

[bitter oar]

from bestbuy? uh

[bitter oar]

buy some component or such or something that you can resell back for most of your money if you do have everything you want and then buy a keyboard, or well if you don’t mind over paying for a keyboard then buy one off bb

[eternal ore]

Could I be cheeky and ask for help please? It was suggested I look on AliExpress for a cheap mechanical keyboard and then silent switches I have around £50 for both (I wanted to get some nice comfortable key caps too if budget permits. Then a silent wireless mouse (I think I've found one, the Logitech M650) I've found so many keyboards but I don't know which is 3, or 5 pin....I had picked AKKO fairy switches as they appear to be whisper quiet.

[modest sonnet]

Any good wireless gaming mouse that can be used for school and gaming

Under 50-60 euros

[buoyant wigeon]

Hi! How do I know if my rk61 is hot swappable?

[scarlet torrent]

agreed

my akko 5075B+ even with a tape mod still have some vibration sounds

which is why I'm waiting for my MCHOSE GX87 to arrive.

[scarlet torrent]

im guessing the keyboard lacks dampening material if for example, when pressing spacebar, it makes a very classic keyboard sound

like yk how custom kbs the thocky ones are very smooth

but my stock akko with a tape mod still has that keyboard clackiness to it

Cream Yellow switches btw

its still a clacky kb

[crisp patrol]

thocky tharbly marbly clacky poppy

[bitter oar]

it should be

take a switch puller or two tweezers and press down together the clips on the switcha and pull it, it should come off

tho, make sure to look for what switches you buy if you want to replace them, hotswap sockets on old, cheap rk kbs are usually poor 3 pin sockets

[eternal ore]

I thought keyboard switches would at least supply the right amount, some of these packs are 10, 20, 24 etc I'd need 3/4 packs so another £40-60

[heavy sage]

Any good keyboard recommendations?

Gunna be my first time getting one

[boreal rivet]

realforce

[crisp patrol]

realforce

[heavy sage]

Okay thanks

[cunning anvil]

another happy customer

[heavy sage]

I'm just checking them out rn

Is there any other good brands to compare too

Preferably wireless stuff

And preferably not super expensive:(

I just don't wanna spend 200 bucks on a keyboard that would go over my budget I have set for a PC and stuff included

100 is prob my max if even that

[heavy sage]

Also would want a full one cause I want the F keys

[regal urchin]

Customized my V5 Max!

[crisp patrol]

@cunning anvil how 2 pcb design

[crisp patrol]

bet (I'll mostly be working on mouse and keyboard pcbs for now)

[verbal sapphire]

It’s a good 100%, Blue switch keyboard for a $50 budget? The thing is I’m not looking to get it now. I’m just interested in it.
https://www.amazon.com/KOORUI-Keyboards-Mechanical-Keyboard-Backlit/dp/B0C1N775CL

[eternal ore]

Which is better for a more quiet typing, keyboard??? I'll be hoping to use akko fairy switches

[magic wolf]

I'm no material master. But what I've found to work is more, flexible, thinner, breathable material.

[eternal ore]

I was just seeing if the plastic one Vs the thin aluminium one, it's so confusing

[magic wolf]

I want that keyboard to feel like a fresh pair of undies

[crisp patrol]

so don't use foam

[glossy mica]

silent switches do more than the case material

[scarlet torrent]

go to Aliexpress

literally search Keyboard

[heavy sage]

I found one I like thanks tho!

[scarlet torrent]

btw

it's cheaper on aliexpress

[heavy sage]

Oh

Okay then bet

[scarlet torrent]

it's literally like 20 usd for the backbone

[heavy sage]

What is the backbone

[scarlet torrent]

actually I'm wrong

backbone is just the case and pcb

no switch and keycaps

[scarlet torrent]

that's usd right

[scarlet torrent]

just buy ur keyboards on aliexpress

it's like $44 USD for the Aula F75

[heavy sage]

AliExpress is confusing me it all feels like a scam lol

[scarlet torrent]

nope, their keyboards are legit

that's because all the good budget brands come from china

which explains why they have their own store in aliexpress

many people buy keyboards from aliexpress and upsell them

[heavy sage]

I feel like I'm having trouble finding one

[scarlet torrent]

that's basically $44 USD

[heavy sage]

But not the right color:(

[scarlet torrent]

what colour u looking for

[heavy sage]

The black one like in the picture I showed

Matches the system better

[scarlet torrent]

@heavy sage

it's literally the same thing

[heavy sage]

So I hate to tell you

It's not:((

[scarlet torrent]

did u not see ur picture

[heavy sage]

No no I'm seeing

And comparing

[scarlet torrent]

ur picture has the black grey gradient

[heavy sage]

Pause

[scarlet torrent]

it's the same thing my guy

[scarlet torrent]

it's not full black

[heavy sage]

Oh well maybe I'm blind my bad 😭

[scarlet torrent]

and u can always js buy keycaps

[heavy sage]

Grey/black or whatever works too

[scarlet torrent]

they're not expensive

[heavy sage]

Meh if I can get it all together that's preferable

[scarlet torrent]

idk but I personally bought the mchose gx87

[heavy sage]

But yeah I think that is the same one just looks strange with no backlight

[heavy sage]

Oh is that pricey or something

[scarlet torrent]

it gained popularity for being prob one of the best keyboards that's good for its price

[heavy sage]

When I first went in here people wanted me to buy REAL FORCE that looked trash but was 200 buckaroos

[scarlet torrent]

example

[heavy sage]

Ah okay

[scarlet torrent]

MCHOSE GX87

the one I bought

70 USD

for a full aluminium build

5 layer dampening

tri mode

8000mah batt

it's not even plastic

on Indiegogo?

u saw that price on indiegogo?

[heavy sage]

Oh no alixpress

[scarlet torrent]

that's yuan btw

idt they display their prices in international currency until check out

[heavy sage]

Why does it say dollars then

[scarlet torrent]

different sellers

look for the official mchose store

[heavy sage]

Yo wait that's actually SICK

And it has F keys

[scarlet torrent]

https://vt.tiktok.com/ZS2mGwcRA/

[heavy sage]

Can u just send the link of wherever your seeing a cheap one at cause all I'm seeing is 150

[scarlet torrent]

there are 3 versions btw

lite max and ultra

Ultra is the only version with a quick release system

basically it uses a ball catch system to hold onto the top cover

the lite and max uses screws

but what's on taobao/ali wld be the max

[heavy sage]

I'm totally new to keyboards

So I have no clue what any of that means

[scarlet torrent]

https://click.world.taobao.com/_a.93ho 「Mchose Gx87 Mechanical Keyboard Aluminum Tuotuo Customized Finished Three-Mode Wireless Bluetooth Gasket Structure」
Tap and open Taobao to view

u will need to install this app btw

[heavy sage]

Oop why

[scarlet torrent]

Taobao is basically Aliexpress' startup

they're basically the same place but 2 names

it's more like

[heavy sage]

That's so sus wtf

[scarlet torrent]

U guys know aliexpress

but Asians know Taobao

[heavy sage]

Interesting

Will it take like 38 years to arrive tho?

[scarlet torrent]

depends where u live but I'm in Asia

Singapore specifically

air shipping takes a week

[heavy sage]

AIR SHIPPING WHATTT

Since when was that a thing

[scarlet torrent]

there's 2 optiojs

either it flies to u

or it sails to u

[heavy sage]

But I live in America so it's prob like 30 year wait time

Idk tho

[scarlet torrent]

@heavy sage

u cld just visit Indiegogo

[heavy sage]

WTF is that one

[scarlet torrent]

slightly more overpriced but it's still under 100

[scarlet torrent]

the website who funds mchose

[heavy sage]

What is mchose

[scarlet torrent]

they're one of the international distributors

[heavy sage]

Am I supposed to know that

[scarlet torrent]

the company who made the keyboard

[heavy sage]

Rightttt

[heavy sage]

But like the bottom of it is still not black:(

[scarlet torrent]

spray paint it 🙂

[heavy sage]

Also ngl I don't like how the nob is on the side

I like the black one I found still

Even tho she's plastic does it really matter?

[scarlet torrent]

its still a good kb

the knob is actl a good feature that custom builders like yk

it adds functionality and aesthetic

[heavy sage]

I don't really know what the knob is good for but it looks good

[scarlet torrent]

this is gonna get replaced soon

[scarlet torrent]

volume control

rgb control

[heavy sage]

Ah makes sense

I thought u just used software for RGB control

[scarlet torrent]

some or I wld say

ALOT OF PEOPLE

hate having those rgb software on their computers

the knob controls the brightness of the rfb

rgb

[heavy sage]

Oh okay cool

[scarlet torrent]

aliexpress is pretty powerful

yk how I mentioned the GX87 was $70

[heavy sage]

Wait is the one I showed gunna have like a dongle thing like a mouse would?

[scarlet torrent]

this keyboard is way more expensive than $70 coz it's an akko and it's plastic and sounds worst

[scarlet torrent]

it's gonna have a 2.4 ghz or Bluetooth or wired

[heavy sage]

Ive been using a crappy laptop for a while so anything is better

[heavy sage]

So what does 2.4 ghz mean

[scarlet torrent]

it's basically wireless and uses a dongle

[heavy sage]

Oh okay bet I love that

[scarlet torrent]

like yk those USB dongles

[heavy sage]

Yeah yeah my mouse has one

Awesome

[scarlet torrent]

ye it's that

[heavy sage]

Alright then

I think I will just buy what I showed just so I don't have to wait years for it to be here but thanks for showing me good places to look for stuff

[uncut fjord]

Got any nerds here on that topic? xd

[boreal rivet]

Yeah, most keyboards use this thing called a usb cable

[scarlet torrent]

I wld say

the worst thing abt my akko is the stabilisers

it's very loud

[pseudo holly]

Rate the first custom mechanical keyboard

[charred plank]

I love the cap set and anodized blue metal

Which board?

[pseudo holly]

tofu65 2.0

just wanted a simple 65%

[charred plank]

Made this one out of a lucky 65

But the blue and purple versions were all sold out

So I was stuck with black

[uncut fjord]

which is sometimes a pain in the ass lol

That's why keyboards with batteries were invented. But they also suck bcs u have to charge them quite often. Which kinda seems unnecessary, when u literally have so much power being hammered into keyboards that's just wasted, which should be more than enough for such a low power device

[boreal rivet]

let me know when you manage to fit generators into each switch along with an ac to dc power supply in the keyboard 👍

[uncut fjord]

generators: coilds of wire around a magnet
ac to dc: literally just 4 diodes

I mean, ofc you'd need a bit more ciruitry, like condensators n shit, but it is all technically possible

[boreal rivet]

the voltage generated by switch sized alternators won't reach anywhere near 5v much less after the filter caps and vreg

[chrome raft]

anyone know where i can get a high profile case for a drop alt without spending like $150

[tacit solstice]

are reddragon mechanical keyboards good?

[uncut fjord]

the 5V mainly depend on the storage medium, you could run lower voltage parts. Plus, inductors do exist.

Will it be efficient? most definitely not, but with such a low power application it wouldn't have to be.

There was research done here after all

[unique compass]

Hey guys what’s a good prebuilt mechanical keyboard I can buy for like $50-$60

[bitter oar]

prefered size? womier sk71, $60 from aliexpress with a coupon

[unique compass]

I don’t really care what size

[bitter oar]

yeah, sk71 aluminum kb prebuilt for $60

[unique compass]

Thanks

[mellow nova]

Transition Lite x Xray

[forest pebble]

Oh the board looks nice

[crisp patrol]

what the fuck is that

[cunning anvil]

epoxy

i assume

speaking of stupid

trying to think if its worth it to get rid of half the diode footprints by including 3 jumpers

[charred plank]

Added a resin mounted copper plate to lucky 65

I also added a thin layer of liquid electric tape to damp the chassis for high frequencies

[crisp patrol]

[charred plank]

Put a thicker layer on the edge to act as a slight spacer to fix the tolerance for the pcb

So that it would t lose flex

[crisp patrol]

or you just buy a decent board

[charred plank]

Why do that if I can just get a cheap board and make it as good or better with some effort

Plus it feels more satisfying

[cunning anvil]

"as good or better" is pulling weight

[crisp patrol]

https://tenor.com/view/breaking-bad-funny-wtf-wth-jesse-gif-17336046

[charred plank]

It'd cost a lot more to get a board that's 4-4.5lbs while being a 65%

Plus they probably wouldn't get as deep stock either

Most metal boards end up pingy

[cunning anvil]

not what i mean

[modest condor]

https://i.imgur.com/W6Y82Yz.png

[modest condor]

if u buy cheap chinesium yes

[charred plank]

most in general

[charred plank]

its liquid electric tape

its meant for pcb issolation

[charred plank]

price and country have 0 to do with how a material behaves

[prime mirage]

Dude no

[prime mirage]

No

[charred plank]

can you find me a deep stock sounding metal board?

how is deep bad?

[prime mirage]

Hm lemme see HOW ABOUT ANY GOOD METAL BOARD

[charred plank]

like?

[prime mirage]

Exactly

[charred plank]

can you give an example?

[prime mirage]

Biooc always out here trolling with false information

[modest condor]

fr

[prime mirage]

All metal vs plastic changes is metal amplifies better

Dosent make it pingy

[charred plank]

how am I trolling with false info... im just asking for an example of a deep sounding stock metal board

[prime mirage]

Literally any decent not shit board

[modest condor]

man wants foam i guess

[prime mirage]

Yeah

[charred plank]

they resonate completely differently

[prime mirage]

How

[charred plank]

metal amplifes high frequencies much easier

because it has higher frequency resonances

[prime mirage]

🤓

[charred plank]

got the lucky 65 sounding deep without foam

just takes effort

which is my point

[prime mirage]

A good metal board won’t have pingy you just are used to shit boards

[modest condor]

^

[prime mirage]

Most good boards have enough foam in them to do that

[charred plank]

so whats a low pitched metal board...

[charred plank]

im not using any foam

[prime mirage]

Real

[modest condor]

switch material + keycap material + plate material

[charred plank]

a lot of factors matter

[prime mirage]

Biooc is always here making absurd points about bull shit he knows is wrong just to troll

[prime mirage]

Precisely

[modest condor]

i dont think he is actually trolling

[prime mirage]

Dunning Kruger effect ahhhh

[modest condor]

yep

[charred plank]

do any of you know how to have a discussion?

youre making a lot of non backed up claims

and circle jerking eachother

[modest condor]

why bother discussing stuff when one party is just saying dumb shit?

[charred plank]

while schizoing out about me making claims I never made

[royal patrol]

oh so he does that in this channel too?

[modest condor]

LOL

[prime mirage]

Yes

[charred plank]

such as...

[prime mirage]

Everything that leaves your mouth

[charred plank]

could you just let me know the dumb claim

or tell me a deep sounding stock metal board

[modest condor]

.

[charred plank]

ive been reading

[modest condor]

.

[charred plank]

you havent given an example once

[prime mirage]

I have a suggestion for you

Be quite and stop spreading misinformation then come back once you have actual good info

[modest condor]

where is he saying dumb stuff?

[prime mirage]

@charred plank

[charred plank]

what misinfo have I spread?

[prime mirage]

Everything you say practically

[modest condor]

^

[charred plank]

so far the only claim I made was country and price dont change how materials behave

there are ways to make metal boards sound deep

[prime mirage]

Lies

[charred plank]

but its not just being more expensive

[modest condor]

man does not know what Chinesium is

[charred plank]

its around increasing the mass so it behaves as a self damping system then adding a thin layer of demping for high frequency resonances

because thats inherently how metal behaves

what do you disagree with?

if you disagree with something explain what and provide reasoning and proof

then we will be having a "discussion"

[cunning anvil]

disagrees "disagree harder pls"

[charred plank]

metals inherently have a resonant frequency where they most heavily amplify

for aluminum its around 2-3khz

which is pretty high pitched

[modest condor]

https://tenor.com/view/copium-cat-gif-27161395

[royal patrol]

you dont believe in the importance of this frequency band anyway

we discussed that in audio tech

[modest condor]

lmao

[charred plank]

resin inherently resonates at closer to 500hz or lower

[charred plank]

no, i just dont falesly magically apply it to things it has no relation to

when talking about amplitude per frequency amplitude per frequency matters

[charred plank]

this is why to get an aluminum board deeper you need to add mass to increase the energy needed to make it resonate and preferably dampen that resonant frequency

the more targeted of a band you can damp it in the better

yep

and all this applies to keyboards

you dont even need to measure it

you just need to understand it

and thats all thats needed to avoid making dumb claims like paying more or not being chinese magically changes material behavior

[modest condor]

let me name a few different types of aluminum : 5052 , 6063 , 7075

[charred plank]

not really. aluminum is aluminum. the variance from the purest and least refined aluminum isnt going to be much

there also isnt much reason to water down aluminum

this isnt gold

[cunning anvil]

alloys arent real?

[royal patrol]

obamium alloy

[charred plank]

5052 is 97% aluminum still, 6063 is 99% aluminum, and 7075 is about 90% aluminum

alloys matter but the variance here isnt much

whats the difference in resonant frequency between them...

[cunning anvil]

90% isnt even an A

like one in ten parts?

[charred plank]

the question is by how much

off a quick google search the resonant frequency doesnt change much between those alloys

[cunning anvil]

if you cant quantify something yourself, is it really even real?

[charred plank]

id bet there is a difference

but id also bet its not just down to the alloy

id bet you anything its a combination of things

such as the plate, they switches, the damping, the pcb

[crisp patrol]

liquid electrical tape is for pcbs not keyboards

stop watching hipyo

[modest condor]

[charred plank]

it just happens to have good damping properties

[crisp patrol]

just use foam

[charred plank]

foam wouldnt work as well

[crisp patrol]

[charred plank]

would take up more of the cavity and wouldnt damp high frequencies as efficiently

[crisp patrol]

but frequencies don't matter

[charred plank]

they do when youre targeting a sound

goal isnt just to get a quiet keyboard for me

its to get a loud but deep board

im still waiting for you to say where im wrong or lying and provide any proof

[crisp patrol]

https://tenor.com/view/saul-goodman-breaking-bad-walter-gif-18712459

this is worse than using kinetic sand

[prime mirage]

Aight pal go back to the vr chat or Roblox server and troll them instead

[charred plank]

if im wrong then why is it that with no foam and none of the mods I did the board is high pitched and after these same mods they happen to do exactly what I said they would and make the board deep

[cunning anvil]

"id bet you anything its a combination of things"

[crisp patrol]

"I filled my keyboard with concrete so you don't have to"

"liquid electrical tape = THOCK"

[cunning anvil]

trying to get a 30% keyboard

that was good, glad i saw it

[crisp patrol]

[modest condor]

lmao

[prime mirage]

Wuts gold

I plea the 5th

[modest condor]

lmao

[prime mirage]

I didn’t realize it would actually ping someone lmao

[modest condor]

it didnt

[prime mirage]

Oh

Well then

“I filled my board with @everyone so it’s less pingy”

[cunning anvil]

do you think i could produce a 30$ 30% keyboard

[royal patrol]

[cunning anvil]

fr4 skeleton case

[prime mirage]

WARNING BIOOC LOGIC well yes since $100 100% keyboards are a thing so it must work that way

[crisp patrol]

sounds neat

[charred plank]

if youre looking through my message history that far and couldnt realize thats a sarcasticquestion then im sorry but you need help

[crisp patrol]

will it flex

[cunning anvil]

i mean depends where i put the mount points

i think

[crisp patrol]

I think this means skeletonized hardened steel

[cunning anvil]

huh

[crisp patrol]

teehee

[prime mirage]

go to #roblox-and-vr-chat

[charred plank]

kinda is. Means not only are your claims so baseless out of ignorance that you can't back a single one up, but rather they are baseless out of malice and intent to mislead.

if you just didnt know better and misled people so be it

but what you do is something else

doenst really matter if you used that time to mislead people and yourself

[modest condor]

LOL

[charred plank]

there is a fallacy around using that as a justifier for claims you cant justify otherwise

[crisp patrol]

do you realize that people don't do what you do for a reason

[charred plank]

its called appeal to authority

because its high effort

[crisp patrol]

not at all

[charred plank]

then what reason?

idk, if one person could justify their beliefs (especially when those beliefs seem to be at odds with simple amterial science) then maybe id listen

but rn its just an example of how misinformed the average joe is

if that happened reply to the 2 times it was explained

shouldnt be hard

I can read

youre just doing the same repeating pattern

you make a claim you know is false to back up a claim you know you cant justify

its unfortunate

the keyboard hobby is kinda being gutted by people who act like elitist to justify the things they dont understand

enjoy what you have and ill enjoy what I have

I just wont mislead people along the way

I hope youll choose to do the same eventually

[bitter oar]

<@&750150305383186585> , still calls me dinky

you’re doing it intentionally

what about here… instead of being reasonable and explaining to people why’s a keyboard bad you call them stupid.

no, i want mod to resolve this already, i don’t want you to call me dinky

you’re just gaslighting by saying you’re not doing it intentionally “that you don’t remember”

just as you did with that invite link and you deliting your messages

[royal patrol]

i want keyboard

[modest condor]

same

waiting for two currently

[royal patrol]

i must go back up in size eventually

60 and 65 are both stupid

yeah i came to the conclusion that 60 and 65 are just needlessly compromised for an insignificant downsizing

60% especially

[modest condor]

i prefer 60s tbh

[royal patrol]

not having arrowkeys is silly as fuck

[modest condor]

layers my friend

[royal patrol]

yeah you can use layers but really?? layers for arrowkeys??

you shouldnt need layers for arrowkeys or the function row

just makes it obnoxious to use

[modest condor]

[nimble mauve]

im sure they'll answer a message or something. looks like people are salty

[royal patrol]

i need recommendations for a hotswap TKL board (in-stock, not a group-buy, not backordered) with:
-knob
-insert & delete

USA and $$$ budget

[nimble mauve]

what is $$$

[royal patrol]

less than $1k

[bitter oar]

question, only TKL, not 75% or such factors that have function row, arrow keys

[bitter oar]

oh

[modest condor]

cant think of a good tkl with a knob 😦

[royal patrol]

im open to 75% if it has insert, delete, and a knob

[nimble mauve]

linworks whale 75

[bitter oar]

switches? heavy, light? tactile?

any keycap profile preference

out of the dozens

[nimble mauve]

i dont think giving someone advice for a 1k keyboard is in your scope of reality

just reading your message history

[royal patrol]

well i mean im not looking to spend as much as possible lmao

[nimble mauve]

oh ye for sure

thats fair then

[bitter oar]

that’s why i don’t give a direct recommendation, also poor argument i didn’t* i’m asking for his preferences

[royal patrol]

but if there was something that was very obviously better and only a couple hundred more then id be open to it

keychron q3 seems fine tbh

[nimble mauve]

buy it

[bitter oar]

yeah, it is

[modest condor]

if u NEED a knob , keychron is ok

most higher end boards wont have a knob

at least customs

[royal patrol]

i stopped using my dacamp stack and have been using the apple usb c to 3.5mm dongle, so a knob is convenient for volume control

[nimble mauve]

buy a standalone knob lol

dont limit your keyboard

[modest condor]

could always just bind volume control to something

or put it on a layer

[nimble mauve]

like every sane person

[modest condor]

or buy a macro pad looking thing with a knob on it

only one i can think of right now https://www.pikatea.com/products/the-richard-macropad

i have one

its sick

sorry if this is not allowed mods

but its a real product that i own , with a funny shape

[royal patrol]

self ad?

[modest condor]

no

i bought one when it was in group buy

you can program it in Vial

[nimble mauve]

proving you own something when providing advice is not advertisement

[modest condor]

so you can put whatever u want on it etc

[royal patrol]

nah dawg i wasnt being serious

and if he was self adding i wouldnt care

[charred plank]

@bitter oar I managed to find an appropriately sized brass plate to fill in lucky 65

Got it close to 4.5lbs

[bitter oar]

oh, nice, how much difference did it make to the sound

?

[charred plank]

Fixed the uneven gain entirely

Made space bar way deeper

Made the other keys slightly deeper but a little more muted (gonna get sa profile keycaps to maybe counteract that)

[prime mirage]

Bro destroyed that thing

[charred plank]

In what way is it destroyed...

If it weighs more and sounds better while feeling better

It's like saying a PC is destroyed if it's overclocked or undervolted just cause it's not stock

@prime mirage would you consider yourself an enthusiast?

[prime mirage]

Yes

[prime mirage]

It’s painted and almost looks melted

I mean if you like it then great

[charred plank]

So why would the idea of putting in more effort to get a much better result in the field you consider yourself an enthusiast not be exciting to you?

Cause the only real loss was a minor decrease in gain for the main letter keys but even there the pitch improved drastically

[prime mirage]

I’m not even going to argue with you

[charred plank]

Or more importantly why does it upset you?

Because I can get not wanting to put in that effort and instead finding it more sensible to just buy a board with a built in weight that already weighs 4.5lbs and maybe has some sort of pre installed custom cut velvet damping or something of the sort

Even if it cost like 10x as much I can see a reasoning behind it more so than I can see wanting to do more difficult mods like this

But I don't see a reason to be upset by people doing that effort

I'm in a lot of hobbies and I've seen people do things I found to not be worth it but I've never been upset about them doing that extra work

I've seen people make separate loops for ram, I've seen people buy cheap rca cables and make their own shielding, I've seen people go sub ambient for locked parts just to push them a little higher, etc

Never made me want to do those things but I find it fascinating and see them as if anything more dedicated in those regards than me

[prime mirage]

My issue isn’t others putting in work that’s great

[charred plank]

Then what is it?

[prime mirage]

Your spreading misinformation

[charred plank]

What info did I spread in general?

That you can use resin to mount a brass plate to a keyboard?

Cause you can see it here

No way to really call it misinfo

[nimble mauve]

I agree

[nimble mauve]

mega stupid

[charred plank]

Made the thing sound leagues better

For like $10

So I'd say pretty worth it

[crisp patrol]

[charred plank]

I'll record the sound in a little

Gonna make pizza first

[nimble mauve]

[balmy gazelle]

I bought a linear silent keyboard a week ago and after a week of use still haven't gotten used to it. I type about 10wpm less (with more errors).

The keyboard I type better on is using razer green tactile switches.

Should I just buy tactile silent switches to replace in the new board or keep using it and will I eventually get used to linear?

[charred plank]

still need to mod new space bar

but besides that its done

[sullen grove]

Does the gateron oil kings pre lube is enough or nah

[charred plank]

wym?

[sullen grove]

The gateron oil king comes pre lubed but do i need to lube it since sometimes factory lubed switchs arent lubed correctly

[charred plank]

its probably fine tbh but it depends on how much work youre willing to do

[sullen grove]

Ig

[charred plank]

if you have a few hours to spare hand lubing will probably be better unless you really mess up

You should’ve bought a realforce 😔

[scarlet torrent]

I will slap u

[scarlet torrent]

done building

[charred plank]

Looks nice

[scarlet torrent]

guess what

$70 USD

for a keyboard with amazing stabilisers and plenty of lube in all switches

its 2.05kg

but replaced the cherry profiles with my xda dye subbed for a deeper thocky sound

[boreal rivet]

Looks meh

[charred plank]

Nice

[scarlet torrent]

elaborate meh

[scarlet torrent]

i saw urs

is that like js a colouured plate?

[charred plank]

Used a resin to adhere a brass plate to the center of the board

[scarlet torrent]

meanwhile steel

[charred plank]

Made the gain chamber more even for larger switches while also making the board sound much deeper

[scarlet torrent]

metal kbs ftw

it feels cold haha

[charred plank]

I honestly might have to get this board for my fiance's build lol

Seems like really good value

[scarlet torrent]

all i can say is the stabs that come stock are as good as a modded stab alr

[boreal rivet]

boring china checklist keyboard

also your keycaps are ugly

[scarlet torrent]

theres no rattle

how dare u insult matcha xdas

[charred plank]

Why is everyone in the keyboard hobby seemingly holding a grudge with China?

Like I get there are good and bad Chinese products but emphasis on good "and" bad

Not just bad

[scarlet torrent]

because a lot of their bases have almost identical designs to keyboards costing $300-500

[boreal rivet]

I'm chinese with one half of the family living there lil bro

[scarlet torrent]

and also they hate flex cut pcbs

[boreal rivet]

they get what they get

[charred plank]

If an argument against a board boils down to it being Chinese though it probably falls more into that good category

[scarlet torrent]

and the reality that u see is that

Aula Yuunzi

Royal Kludge

they prob all came from the same factory

but tbh

i prefer those boards over an expensive mongeeks/akko kb

[charred plank]

I just hate when people blindly hate on a product cause Chinese

Rather than saying what's bad about it if anything

[scarlet torrent]

i hate that people advertise a board that is shit without any mods

Akko keyboards are just that ngl

[charred plank]

Same with keychron imo

[scarlet torrent]

akko all u have is like 3 layers of dampening

[spiral mica]

nah the more expensive akko boards are nice

esp pc ones

[charred plank]

Tbh, even lucky 65 isn't good without mods imo

[scarlet torrent]

buit the cheap akkos cant beat a cheap china prebuilt

like the 5075B+

[spiral mica]

I would gladly take a pc akko over a hi75 or sth similar

[scarlet torrent]

thats one of akkosd worst prebuilts

[spiral mica]

oh those are ewaste

the ones that start with 3 or 5

[scarlet torrent]

the rattle of the stabs are crazy

[spiral mica]

but acr series and spr series is nice

their alu ones are quite shit tho, a lot of ping and sounds weird

[scarlet torrent]

so basically if people want a budget kb, theyre better off looking at aliexpress over an akko budget

[spiral mica]

eh the acr series is pretty nice and its not expensive

only issue is north facing pcb

their monsgeek ones are also decent I guess, pingy but at least they provide materials for force break

[scarlet torrent]

but for the price u pay

some of the chinese boards have better dampening layers

compared to the ACR

The ACR

A chinese brand

[spiral mica]

better dampeners means nothing

if the metal case is pingy as hell

not sure if mic placement issue but sounds dispersed

Is this the right place to ask about mice? 🙂 Anyone knows if there are vertical gaming mice out there? I'm so used to my Logitech Lift, that when trying to game with a normal mouse, it suuuuuucks 😄

[charred plank]

What's the point in just being a douche to the guy for just asking for advice...

[crisp patrol]

I haven't heard of any vertical gaming mice before

aside from a couple pen grip prototype mice than can technically be used for gaming

[cunning anvil]

just make one ez/j

Well, there are quite a few on amazon, but it's all the weird brands (though there is a Trust brand one, idk how decent that would be)

I'd be concerned about the weight on those, as they seem like they would be rather heavy

[bitter oar]

trust mice are really bad

i've had couple, the paint eventually chips off, the sensors they use are shit, i've had bugs with them randomly switching vertical and horizontal movement during usage

[boreal rivet]

only you would know this kvetinky

so cool

[fallow moss]

😄

yeah i kind'a figured

might have to find a decent gaming mouse that fits me ergonomically

[bitter oar]

was this comment really necessary?

[boreal rivet]

I'm complimenting you tf?

[bitter oar]

is it though? or are you being ironical for me buying the shit

[glossy mica]

[boreal rivet]

Question
I’ve been wanting to display my old keyboard on a wall
If I plug it into a USB wall plug will the lights come on?

Or is this
A bad thing to do

[chilly perch]

It might depend on the keyboard but probably yes

It definitely wont harm anything, it just depends on the software, but if its anything normal the lights should work yeahj

[scarlet torrent]

not bad

[cunning anvil]

5 word test?

[chilly perch]

lmao

Has anybody ever had an out-of-warranty Corsair K95 serviced? Mine needs some fixing... Not sure if it's worth the price.

[charred plank]

did a copper foil mod to the space bar to fix its sound
