@buffen2247 Год назад

as far as i know those little stripes you put under your stabs are the included "tape mod" that people used to do to their stabs where you put tape below the stab so on bottom out they feel dampaned and are less prone to rattle. The ones that are made for thinner pcb's are called shimms and are put below the pcb so the stabs still fit if they arent made for 1.2mm pcb's

@SadWitchBree Год назад

Not a keyboard for me but I can see how some might enjoy it. Thanks for checking it out and giving us the low down. The moon V2 switches are some of my faves.

It's hilarious to me how everyone's been sleeping on the kinetic lab switches! The salmons are the first switches I immediately reordered 110! I don't really care for any of the linear switches but they are very high quality. Now tecsee is the bougie cool kid switch. I've been using them for over 2 years now 😇

@FromPlsNerf Год назад

I bought some Moon V2 switches a few weeks ago for my Bakeneko. I love them and I think they have replaced oil kings as my favorite pre lubed switch.

@SlickShoes Год назад

Me too, I have honestly been enjoying them more than my lubed / filmed alpaca v2's.

@ICmikeyP Год назад

How would you compare them with the Oil kings? I'm thinking of choosing between these two switches. Compare sound/smoothness at stock?

Hello there! Keep up your nice work. Because of your videos, I made 2 custom keyboards. Two Keychron K4 Version 2 with jelly black akko switces and pbt cherry keycaps. I lubed switces and put some tape behind the pcb. One for home and one for office. The clicky sound is dope!!!

As a proud owner of a Corsair K100 with optical linear switches, I can definitely say that I am not proud to own a Corsair K100 with optical linear switches. (Look, it's a great "gamer" keyboard with a lot of really great switch features and macro-ability, but a $250 keeb with aluminum frame should have hot-swappable switches) I got that chonky bad-boi on a Best Buy Cyber Monday sale a couple of years ago for 179.99 before knowing absolutely anything about keyboards, and I don't regret it. It taught me the things I should look for in a custom board.

How do you know what stabs work with your keyboard? I hope you answer this question cause if you don’t, I probably won’t find a ligament answer. Pls help and thanks Hipyo!

I will continue to watch your vids when it comes out and one day when I have money I’ll buy your merch😊!

@brutalitea Год назад

Hipyo do you have any keyboards you can recommend that are a strong shade of green like british racing green? I dont like the zoom75 dark green (too much blue) or the mode sonnet (too pale)

@lawrencetchen Год назад

Look out for Matrix Corsa extras from NovelKeys_ in the coming months, they specifically had a green also named BRG. Ellora65 by Kiko Lab also ran a pretty high saturation green, probably a few more months out from fulfillment. Keebfront's new 65% (Vanguard?) is also supposed to be a nice saturated allbeit slightly darker green based on renders. The Maja V2 came in a nice Forest Green about a year ago, probably some floating around MechMarket

@brutalitea Год назад

@@lawrencetchen there is zero value in telling me about boards I can't even buy, wtf.

@ApodicticScott Год назад

With the amount of money this costs in mind, you recommended the QK65. Now, I would love to pick up a qk65 but only in stock rarely. Any recommendations outside of that Hipyo? Atleast for a 65%, im looking for a nice keyboard for my first build. I might try to get the envoy in a month but they probably will run out of stock since they are in pre-order right now.

@kaori.0545 Год назад

the tm680 is a 67% if thats good with you! you can probably do more research as needed

@th3doorMatt Год назад

QK65 was my first build. I do love it (though I find myself reaching for my Tofu Jr more often). If it's your first build, it's going to teach you a lot of patience as it's like an onion to take apart - lots of layers. For the price though, it can produce a very nice sound. I just wish it had LEDs. Doesn't even need to be RGB, but something even like the cool white of the Bakeneko65 would have been nice. That's basically my only gripe about it. I also ordered the Zoom65, Tofu65, and Envoy. I just built the Freebird60 in a pseudo 65% layout since the PCB gives you the option of arrow keys.

@coyotex850 Год назад

envoy, tofu65 2.0, bakeneko65,zoo65 are the best instock or soon to be instock boards atm....this board from kinetic labs seems nice but its a hard sell considering the price compared to the others mentioned

@kaori.0545 Год назад

yes agreed envoy, tofu65, zoom, and bakeneko are the best rn

@ricegobler Год назад

You can just preorder the envoy to get it but you can also check out the new retro 66, though the retro may be a little hard for a first board

@CrustyRL 5 месяцев назад

IK this is late but i just wanted to agree with you -- RK makes amazing boards at the price, but in the end, they are really just a cheap gamer keyboard with some customizability. Now don't get me wrong, if you mod them enough it can sound great, but it takes some work

Haimu whisper silent tactile is what I'm using right now, and they are great. It's factory lubed, but they feel even better after you lube them a bit more. Quietness comparable to boba U4 silent switches with a similar feel. $20 for 70 switches, so definitely budget friendly.

@@wenkeli1409 i use the standard plate as well and i did the holee mod for the stabs but the stabs aren’t flush to my pcb they’re at weird angles because of the claw door side and the screw side so i wasn’t sure if that was what was doing it
