QUOTE(quadcube @ Feb 13 2017, 08:18 AM) Nope,stock cherry MX,the customs are gateron Nice paint job!  Thanks, if I have the chance to re-do it, I'll go for thinner coats of paint & maybe a lighter shade of red. So you desoldered the stock cherry MX on your Filco & then soldered on Gats? Wow...must've been a lot of work! Don't think I can do that yet.

QUOTE(PhoLyfe @ Feb 14 2017, 05:27 PM) Ok. I guess I would go for it. Pretty worried about the blue led(highest failure colour) since I would be picking mx blues. Wouldnt need weapon in the room anymore  . I think that TriggerZ is already out of production so <300  So blue LED's mean the board has MX blues?

QUOTE(irsyadfy @ Feb 17 2017, 06:06 PM) +1 i did mine for around that. including buying the solvent used to clean PCB. this cost me RM50(postage not included). drop by this link/shop, http://www.lelong.com.my/merchant/vmart126.htmim not their reprensentative or anything but its my personal AIO shop regarding soldering stuff. sit at home, goyang2 kaki, item sampai. Great link to that Lelong soldering supply shop...thanks! I used to be active in the RC planes & quads hobby..and in that hobby, a lot of soldering skill is needed. I regretted not buying a good quality solder when I started out. Go for a Hakko if you can afford it. If not, go for a decent looking 'clone' with variable temperature control/power output. It will save you a lot of heartache. Oh, and look up soldering tutorials on Youtube, there are lots.

QUOTE(darklordzz @ Feb 17 2017, 07:53 PM) I finally decided to get a ikbc f87. Loving it. Click Click Click. Feels better than Ducky One. Heavier and sturdier too. But that's just my opinion. Awesome thread! Thanks for the advice. Enjoy! What switch?

QUOTE(ck.chunkeat @ Feb 19 2017, 03:16 PM) My Ducky cherry mx black is very scratchy.  Also, would prefer it to be slightly lighter. Hence I'm very interested to try out a gateron yellow board for it's lighter and smoother switch  Ah, read about 'scratchy' blacks. Last week I got to try an acquaintance's Gat yellow board. Quite liked it.

QUOTE(quovadis123 @ Feb 19 2017, 10:47 PM) Yup. Cherry MX Board 3.0 now is RM 289. Even it's below RM 250 also will not in the recommendation list.  Wow, it's that bad, huh?

QUOTE(waninoko @ Feb 28 2017, 11:31 AM) Hi guys, I own a Logitech K520 keyboard and I recently clean it thoroughly and also cleaned off all the lubricants too (it's freaking dirty that's why..). Now I patched everything back but the key is not smooth press. I tried looking around Digital mall but none of them has it. I look through online and they don't recommend use Vasaline. So guys i need some help to advice where can i get a decent keyboard lube? Perhaps you can try white lithium grease, available at ACE hardware in tube or stick form. When it comes lube, less is more.

QUOTE(farz_marz @ Apr 26 2017, 03:24 PM) I just bought Ducky One TKL non-backlit brown switch for RM309. Hope I made a right choice @@ For me, when travelling, I'd prefer a 60%. However, that Ducky One TKL is a solid board still...I don't think you'll regret it.
