Hi,
I've been searching for the right switches for a while now. And I have a box full of keyboards I don't like to prove it.
I found a keyboard I like but it's got the wrong switches on it.
I got a mathew yg108, that seems alright, though I have firmware trouble with it so far.
The keyboard came with switches as follows
Brown switch:Operating force:45g Pressure Force:55g
Operating Travel: 2.0mm Tactile Travel:1.2mm Total Travel:3.40±4.00mm
The tactile feels like almost nothing, almost like linear switches and while it's great for gaming, I like having way more resistance than that.
I know a keyboard that has the switches I like. It was a victsing pc315a
No idea what switches this uses but they have a lot more resistance at the activation point
Anyway, I tried my luck buying switches that looks like they might be like that
I got a set of outemu branded "orange" switches
here are the specs
I received them and installed one of them
original switch
new switch
new switch behind
switch hole
And after all this was said and done... I cannot tell the new switch apart from the other ones ! Feels exactly the same ?
Do I just need a stronger spring value ? I had a 45 or 55 gram switch Now it's almost 60 gram switch
How high to these values go ?
What is the next tactile standard switch force I can search for after 60g ?
What does the victsing keyboard use ?
Thanks I'm checking out this kaih company, they have lots of choice
What I prefer would be the bump at the mid point or lower and stronger than the "brown" and "orange" outemu switches I have tried (which both feel the same)
The further the bump is in the middle, the less noticeable it will become.
So just that I understand: Why exactly do you want to have it in the middle? What does it give you?
