nice mod ❣️ sounds amazing! 😌

@jerryianski Жыл бұрын

we have the same keeb and almost the same modding method. the only difference is that I have gateron g pro 2.0 yellow switches and installed durock poron switch pads and durock switch films 0.3mm and used some cheap silicone mixture as dampener. Yours sound almost the same as mine. Love it!

Do you have any issues with the tape since it sits above the battery? I want to try doing the tempest mod also and some videos say that you should use electrical tape, Do you think Masking - masking - electrical on the vicinity of the battery is ok?

@_lianamelissa 10 ай бұрын

i think it's okay since i watched many videos doing the same and so far i have no issue with it. however, i haven't watched vids using electrical tape yet so im not sure.

@@_lianamelissa well I've seen a lot of rk71 mods who did tape modding so maybe I should try too. I'm just too worried to risk it since I'm a beginner in keyboard modding.

8:16 it's not this tape to do a holee mod ... it's just paper tape, it will peel off when it reacts with the grease, you need a silk plaster from the pharmacy called band aid, it has a completely different waterproof adhesive and does not peel off after reacting with the grease

it took me several days to finish because i ran out of lube so i waited for the new one to arrive as well as the keycaps which also arrived late but if ever i have complete tools, maybe i can finish it for like 1-2 days only since the only one that took so much of my time was the lubing of the switches :)

Is it okay to force the switch on the foam to make a hole for it?

@_lianamelissa Жыл бұрын

i used 2 kinds of foam. the black one was EVA foam which was placed in the case under the pcb and the white one was a PE foam which is a lot thinner that's why it's okay to just push the switch into it.

it really doesn't matter on how much effort you spend by modding it.. you'll still get a terrible experience with it cause rk is useless keyboard and it's made from cheap plastic.. it's not even worth the price but they are just expensive because of the 5 pins gateron supporter pcb
