Has anyone ever handwired a mech with RGB LEDs? Is human brain even capable of that?
Custom PCBs don't count, obviously.
Easton Butler
Hey I have that keyboard.
Its pretty good I rate it 8/10
Oliver Thompson
what is the name of it?
Nicholas Long
Ducky One
This is the exact one I bought
mechanicalkeyboards.com
Lincoln Bailey
Nice, thanks
Tyler Jenkins
>Has anyone ever handwired a mech with RGB LEDs?
I don't think anyone hates themselves that much.
Brayden Ross
...
Isaac Thompson
They're on assdrop right now and I would like to buy them, but I think they look like shit on my black 108 key Ducky keyboard
Isaac Perez
if only the | \ key was also pink
Luis Mitchell
yeah the oem black case on my pok3r didn't look great, so i got a purple gh60 case on aliexpress
Zachary Kelly
No way, alphas in one colour and mods in the other is the only way to go. You can't just mix them up like that.
Xavier Lewis
some sets sell those two alphas in the same color as the modifier and I think it looks better
Blake Peterson
btw i opened the thread, is there a designed person for this or anyone who sees thread's gonna end? i dont wanna steal ur jam m80's, newfriend here
bought this for about 50$ moosebux on amazon, i hear the switches are chinese knockoffs but i also heard it doesn't matter too much. How'd I do?
David Russell
Not bad, it is a very solid keyboard for that price, just don't expect high build quality from it being so cheap. Ajazz and Magiforce also sell cheap keyboards that are also good.
Logan Wilson
>btw i opened the thread, is there a designed person for this or anyone who sees thread's gonna end?
no there is no designated person who does these, I've started them a couple of times before when there was no thread around.
If you do tho next time make sure to set the subject to:
/mkg/ - Mechanical Keyboard General
or else people will get pissy since you can't filter it.
Jace Brooks
shit i didn't think about that
Should I (or anyone else that isn't retarded) reopen it? It's still new so we can just let it die np
Anthony Rogers
Forgot the image
Henry Harris
you aren't the first person to do that mistake. Just let it go on as normal
Josiah Adams
Friendly reminder to please fall for the meme
Joseph Long
If I take my old dome and slider keyboard that has tactile feedback then put a 55g spring in them, will it feel like a topre.
Carter Cruz
No.
The weight of Topre switches comes from the dome, not from the spring
But you should give that a try anyway.
Jaxon Morris
haven't been here in awhile
what is this year's $150 memeboard?
Jack Bennett
Red Scarf
Ethan Martinez
that thing looks fucking gay lmao
Jeremiah Thompson
thats just the baby
Wait till you see the big brother
Kayden Collins
Blake Johnson
You can turn the underlighting off and use a proper alu case to make it look better
Jayden Wood
Round two when?
Ayden Murphy
>off brand cherry switches
Chase Price
I know right? Gateron, more like Gayteron
Ian Butler
Is the $200 rubber dome meme a good one to fall for?
I'm torn between trying topres or buying 67g feelios, because I already know I like the clickity clack.
Jason Price
You have been gone a while. Gateron linears & tactiles > Cherry
Gateron clicky a shit though.
Ethan Williams
Don't you know gaterons are now meme approved
Alexander Kelly
yeah who needs innovation when you have arbitrary brand loyalty
Gabriel Jones
gaterons are literally better than cherry
Austin Long
their clicky switches aren't as good as cherry
Michael Torres
If only their tactile clears weren't so fucking rare
Jaxon Thompson
You can buy them off mechanicalkeyboards right now, just saiyan.
Carson Lopez
He said tactile user those are only linear
Carson Butler
mechanicalkeyboards.com
There is no such thing as a linear mx clear.
Jason Nelson
I'm pretty sure he's talking about tactile gateron clears
reddit.com
Joseph Powell
>using the same color stem for tactile and linear
Thanks, gateron.
Brayden Myers
cherry does the same thing too with their Greys user
Benjamin Nguyen
Linear greys are slightly darker. Not identical.
Jack Reed
good luck telling the difference between them just by looking (pic related)
deskthority.net
deskthority.net
James King
Or it might've been the tactile greys which were darker, either way.
Gabriel Baker
wow user you must have amazing eyes!
Colton Torres
It's easy enough to tell the difference when they're beside each other like here
David Watson
Gateron does the same thing too with their clears, but suddenly its okay when cherry does it.
kys
Jason Green
The gateron stems are identical in color, the cherry greys aren't. That's the key difference.
>but they're really close!
Still not identical.
Blake Parker
I'm too autistic for that, it's gotta be coloured by category rather than position.
Cooper Parker
Yo, anyone know what batteries the Filco Minila Air use? I'm pretty interested in it but for $220AU I'd hope it comes with a built in rechargable pack instead of using standard AAs like a lot of bluetooth keyboards.
Henry Kelly
Gateron uses a difference in opacity, which is kind of funny if you think about it. So they aren't identical, but they are very close just like cherry greys
Left is linear (I got that from reddit), while right is tactile (I got that from winkeyless)
Matthew Davis
Is that really a different opacity, or just different lighting?
Chase Young
It took me 15 seconds in google to find that it uses two AAA batteries
Michael Davis
...
Colton Davis
Well then, now I know.
At least now the tactile gaterons are purple.
Owen Roberts
Hi, recommend me a mouse for use with this keyboard.
Cameron Lewis
I've got the same exact keyboard
I use a g402 (Pic related) that I got on sale for 30 bucks. Its not to bad, but it took me sometime to get used to it since I finger grip. I'd recommend it it if you claw or palm grip, but if you use the finger grip then maybe get the g303. It is a comfy mouse but if you have the money then maybe get the g502 or any mouse made by zowie. I've also heard good reviews on the Ducky Secret
Oliver Edwards
>yfw the Novatouch is fucking gone
Luis Watson
On the bright side topre clones are becoming more affordable.
Ayden Carter
Sure but I won't be buying them until there's TKLs with Cherry-compatible stems
Hunter James
You know you can buy Cherry-compatible sliders from China right?
Logan Rivera
Have you been sleeping under a rock.
RK RC930 has been around for over a year now and its under $100
Its TKL with cherry compatible stems
mechanicalkeyboards.com
This one has RGB lighting
massdrop.com
Cameron Fisher
Honestly I'd rather wireless boards take AA/AAAs so I can just throw a couple Eneloops in there. Li-ion battery packs wear out and then go out of production.
Jace Phillips
If they use some form of standard internal connector instead of a hardwired battery that isn't an issue. PS3 controllers do that and it's easy as piss to swap packs when they're dead.
Angel Campbell
That would still be a whole lot less convenient than ordinary cylindrical cells. Not to mention if they run down you just pop in a couple fresh ones and you're good to go for several more months with no plugging anything in ever.
Jaxon Butler
soon
Luke Phillips
Friend of mine wants a mechanical keyboard with Cherry Blue switches, red back light and has a number pad. I've googled extensively and have not found anything. Any help would be appreciated.
Jack Murphy
The Corsair Strafe is exactly what your friend wants.
Use PC Part Picker to find stuff like this easily.
William Bell
Asher Harris
These are perfect. Thanks!
Luis Walker
hyper x has a new keyboard
fits your needs
Gabriel Walker
Ducky makes a couple of keyboards that fit those requirements
Brandon Flores
How loud are feelios?
Is it worth buying the silencing clips if I want to bring my future feelio keyboard to work?
Cooper Sullivan
You're better off lubing them.
Brayden Turner
white keyboard with cherry reds from 0-150
RGB lighting is a plus
Mason Taylor
Shouldn't be any louder than an mx clear. The sound will mostly depend on the case & keycaps used.
Austin Roberts
Ducky One
PBT keycaps

RGB lighting

Blake Reed
thanks famalam
Nolan Taylor
Should I spend $80 on a plain black keyboard with Cherry MX Blue switches or $85 on a white backlit keyboard with Kailth Blue switches? The backlight isn't for aesthetics, it's functional as I like to work in the dark.
Kevin Brooks
how would the backlight help you in the dark?
Jose Collins
You mean besides being able to see the keys?
Nolan Hernandez
>first time buying a mechanical keyboard
>really like the HHKB but can't afford
>buy noppoo choc mini with reds, and use it for the last 2-3 years
Anyone have this keyboard? Seems like it'd be a pretty good entry level into topre switches at least.
>muh full form factor tho
Alexander Price
People who can't type without looking at the keys.
Parker Hernandez
Does the kc21 numpad on massdrop right now send numpad codes or top row codes?
Colton Powell
i have a old Packard Bell Model 5131c i have PS/2 to USB when i plug in all the lights light up then turn off and nothing happens is there a program i need or am i missing something
Samuel Green
so you guys type without a monitor. How do you do it?
Logan Kelly
???????
Kayden Cook
you may need an active converter like pic related or the Belkin F5U119-E
Matthew Cruz
dont forget about the white fox
Chase Morales
I don't know that why I'm asking you. It seems kinda weird tho, unless you have a monitor without a backlight which just raises even more question?
Christopher Scott
Are you trying to say that you think the light emanating from the monitor is normally bright enough to see the keys even without keyboard backlighting?
Michael Ross
thanks
Justin Moore
Sorry I forgot that old people use the internet now. It was really shocking when the doctor told me that my grandfather's eyes let in 30% less light then me.
I apologize for assuming that we were young gramps and now I see why would need a backlit keyboard.
Isaac Young
calm down m8, i don't even use a backlit keyboard because i don't need it, i'm just trying to understand your bizarre tangents
Kayden Sanchez
No need to get upset. I respect my elders and I fully apologize for anything I've said. It was wrong of me to assume that everyone on Sup Forums is under the age of 60
David Baker
I don't even know what's happening anymore
