Mechanical Keyboards

User @amey is ghosting me after dangling a spare keychron at me.

Sadness

Selling a couple of cheap keyboards if you want to try mechanical... https://www.lfgss.com/conversations/372874/

Just sent you a DM

whats the diff between K2 and K6 anyway ?!

4

K6 has almost no keys.
K2 has some.

Function keys. Which I want.

oh yeah! that is one of the reasons I actually went back to apple keyboard

K6 has all the keys!

(apart from )

(and ~)

I'm actually now using a Logitech MX Keys Mini and enjoying it. Got a bit tired of the noise of my K2 ...

i was going to ask you next if you want it

Got a bit tired of the noise of my K2 ...

Which switches do you have in it?

Red and I added the little o ring things in it too

The enter key has died on a Cherry MX blue board I have, its soldered switches so i'll have a go at replacing it. Could anyone recommend a good place to by the switch from?

Also selling a cheap keyboard and o-rings if anyone else wants to try mechanical:

Is this on the G80 I sold you?

Yes (but dont worry) it will be a fun little project - I stripped it down to the bare board, gave it all a good clean, put the caps through the ultra somic cleaner, ordered some O rings for it too.
You can actually hear that one keyswitch is different, I found someone on eBay selling single MX blues so I will dust off my soldering iron and refresh my skills. I watched this for some tips:

Oops, I probably should've plugged it in and checked it first. PM me and I'll send you the money back.

Sounds like a fun project!

I have about 125 x 1.5mm o-rings for noise dampening Cherry MX style switches - your's for the cost of postage, or free pick up in SW8

Dibs, if you can be arsed to post.
(Happy to cede to someone who can collect)

Will DM you

Anyone interested in Keychron K3 Ultra-slim Wireless Mechanical Keyboard V1?

75% keyboard
Aluminium Body
White Backlight
Red Low Profile Gateron Mechanical

About a year old. Good condition - haven't been working for a lot of that year so not huge use. Original packaging, mac/win keys, accessories, etc. I removed the orange accent keys as they were too much for my kids to resist but they're all there.

£50 posted sound right?

Some boards I just finished working on;

A Red Dragon with Outemu Blue switches for my partner

• strip down and deep clean
  
• De-logo the board case
  
• New double shot caps from AliExpress
  
• O rings to make it a bit quieter (more of a click than a Clack now)
  
  

And a Cherry MX G80-3000 I got from @damitamit which will be my board for going into the office or if I need to take something to work at my family house.

• Full strip down and clean, inc. Ultrasonic clean of all the caps
  
• Replaced the switch on the enter key that had died for a new Cherry MX blue. Very easy to solder happily.
  
• O rings on all the caps.
  
  

Fitted some o-rings (courtesy of Geoffnotsle) to my brown switched K4.
Not silent, but much more muted.
Worthy mod if anyone is considering it.
