I'd argue that linus building a 100k keyboard tester is full autism modeLinus is apparently going to use that robot he's got in his lab and going to be testing switches, cause you're definitely right. A lot of these OEM's are just fudging numbers.
Need someone in the tech space like Project Farms to go FULL AUTISM MODE in their testing, maybe GN would do it but I feel like they think keyboards are beneath them.
AKSHUALLYyeah, figured as much
I dunno, as much as I use my keyboard I couldn't imagine going back to using a cheap one.
Like I physically cringe when I have to use my work laptop's keyboard, and I know how that makes me sound.
It's something to keep my hands busy, especially since I'm actually treating my ADHD now I have the motivation to do it more often.I successfully made it another winter without going into the lubing rabbit hole
right now I do things like re-prep my fishing gear or play with 3d printers to fill that void, just a different flavor of whatever mental health diagnosis I should probably haveIt's something to keep my hands busy, especially since I'm actually treating my ADHD now I have the motivation to do it more often.
When I'm not working on my jeep, renovating my kitchen, or....you know....working.
Zeal is made at much higher tolerance levels and lower volume at gateron. At least that's how they explain the price.
Almost $2 a switch?!? $126 + tax + shipping for a 65 key.
Paid $38 for 70 Jades.
Spent marketing money on those photos lolthe feel difference between Zeal's and other switches is serious.
To get my C3 Dragonfruits to feel like my stock Zealio V2's I had to lube and film all of them, the Zeal's felt amazing right out of the box.
Funny thing is though that they still to this day have the worst packaging, C3, Halo, Novel Keys, all the rest have these custom made tupperware containers and Zeal sends their shit in an offbrand ziploc bag wrapped in bubblewrap.
I've used them in three of my own builds and now 4 times in customer builds and found it to be the case.
Tbh I prefer c3 for linears. I liked tangies more than sakuras or roselios or whatever they're called. Haven't really had experience with their tactiles but I know their bumps are polished so well.
The box whites I just used were $40 shipped next day for 120

Seems the stupidfish foam I bought, durock stabs, and the poron stab foam should all arrive before next weekend.
I might need to try out Stupidfish's candybar foam, I'm using one I made out of toolbox foam currently, but would be nice to have something purpose built.
I mostly am interested in the piece that goes between the plate and the PCB.
Yeah, those are becoming more and more common in new higher end kits.

now you just need to get a wrist pad for the keyboard, personally I recommend stab wood or opaque acrylic as they're easy to clean.Carpio 2.0
