mine has a green LED light behind the spacebar that wont turn off no matter what I do, the colour also can't be changed

does anyone have any solution to this?

Blue! I like them loud

Built into windows and will work on all keyboards.

Can do with 1 button

ohh.. different symbol... croping.. lol... interesting gonna buy it then..

Guys any recommendation for mechanical keyboards under/around RM300? I like blue switch sounds for typing but I'm living alone. I prefer lower-profile keyboard because I'm afraid the keyboard sound can "pierce" through the wall. I'm living in a terrace house and even my neighbor's talking sound can be heard at living room. Thanks

Just came across this on Reddit:

MYR 316.26 10%OFF | OSA KEYCAP midnight blue PBT material two-color injection molding process ergonomic mechanical keyboard can be applied

Ah thanks! this could another alternative that i can opt for.

Anyone here using tecware phantom elite 104? I saw market price is now rm330.. for the gateron yellow.. reasonable?

How is this compared to gateron red?

I have a phantom elite tkl gat browns rm209.
Cant comment much about the price but if you foam the case, lube the switches and maybe change the stabs, it sounds good and performs very well for the money.

TKL version was RM209 last year

The tkl.is now about rm250..

I'm currently using logi wireless (3 device easy switch )

My screen cap started to fade off.. hence looking for alternative.. and I like how juju cable looks like...

I dunno about the 104, but my tkl cable is fixed. You'll have to juju something else.

Yeah I know need to mod to female.usb c if want to use

as of this writing, the popular trend for switches from China means those that come with low-weight springs (linear rated/two-stage normal or long springs). i call them low-weight, because their bottom-out spring weights are below my spring weight range for bottom-out force, which is between 60g to 67g for linear rated springs. sp-star/sp-meteor white (normal linear rated spring, 57g), pang hu's giant v4 (long linear rated spring, 58g), and jwick white (normal linear rated spring, 46g) are some good examples.

initially, i thought it's not ok to have such light bottom-out weights, as from past experience with gateron red, they are very likely to produce typos. well, i was wrong. somehow, with switches that have lesser stem wobbles (basically all of the above), it's ok to have low-weight springs. from my tests, they are really comfortable for touch typing, without causing mistyping (unlike what happened when i used gateron red) i might be wrong, but the only obvious difference between switches above, and gateron switches, is the amount of stem wobbles present in a switch. gateron has more stem wobbles, which means the stems have more rooms for free plays (i.e., less frictions to me), hence the key travels are much faster. this might explain why i always mistype with gateron red, but the same is not happening for sp-star white.

by the way, i lubed my sp-star white with 101/205 mix. thin lube mix like this doesn't affect typing feel and sound much, compared to stock switches. however, i still need to see if it lasts hehe

Taeha's lubing guide is up.



His video production quality is awesome as usual.

right, for those who have read the post by walker about friction areas on cherry mx style slider/stem will make adjustments about their lubing techniques, which is similar to the video. note that for linear switches, we do cover all surfaces, including top and bottom of the sides of slider.

also, before lubing, it's better to clean up switch parts with cotton buds and IPA first, especially for those which have abundant amount of lube applied at factory.

CNY around the corner
