My jaw dropped when I heard Plouffe say its $120.

Still wating my RT100 to be shipped since 20th March, using this video to appreciate some more this beautiful piece of tech and trying to forget about the time I have to wait to get my hands on it. Awesome video as always!

I absolutely love this keyboard. I'm using it to type this comment right now, in fact! I would say two things, though: 1) In my experience, the Budgerigar switches, which are an option when ordering this keyboard, aren't 100% compatible with the stock keycaps. In particular, the spacebar doesn't ascend properly after a soft press, as the spring isn't strong enough to overcome the tactile ridge on the legs of the stem during ascent. The flamingo, which has the same strength of spring, I'm almost completely sure, struggles but is able to ascend because of the lack of an obstacle (the tactile ridge or "bump"). 2) The screen doesn't come back on after the keyboard has gone to sleep in wireless mode. In order to get the screen back on, you have to either turn the keyboard off and on again or switch it from Windows to Mac more (or the other way around, if you're a Mac user). Also, I do find it disappointing that, while it has Windows and Mac mode, it doesn't have optional Mac keys, only Windows keys. For me, that's not a problem, since I use Windows, but if I were a Mac user, I'd be a bit annoyed. All of that being said, I overall love this keyboard, and after spending hours hand-lubing each of my flamingo switches (yes, they're factory lubed, but only just barely), I can say that this keyboard, with stock keys, truly THOCKS!

Hello, which type of Switch would you recommend for somebody concerned about typing speed? Which ones would provide best feeling on typing?

If it feels mushy on the bottom it's because silent switches usually use some sort of silicone ish dampener at the bottom of the pole to, well, dampen the bottom out sound, which causes some mushiness as a result. Personally I like silent switches, they have cool sound.

I got it when it came out and i love it, though i agree with the slight mush at the bottom of the stroke. For me its worth it as it quieter than my laptop and I finally have a numpad! Just with the software was easier to use, you really have to look through the menus and scroll down to find all the options and they're named weirdly. Still great!

@MangoTangoFox

Жыл бұрын

I use the nav keys AND numpad constantly, and it made me want to get a full 100% board and not even go 1800 layout (what this is) because of how it weirdly repositions or removes them. Toggling the numpad and especially hunting for the 4 separated keys (1 3 7 9) is just too slow. But I realized, there are non-compacted 75% layouts with the same lowered arrow keys like this, but that instead of the numpad have all 5 of the nav keys (excluding the useless insert key) on the right side with logical positioning... So I went with that and a matching separate numpad that I can move off to the left for low-dpi gaming, but ALSO use it as a macro-pad usable without using the mouse hand. My old mechanical from 2012 had macro keys left of the main cluster, but boards like that are essentially impossible to find these days outside of overpriced stuff like the Corsair K95, or cheap membranes (reddragon, k55, evga z12, etc).

Looks like a nice enough bit of kit but I was more concerned by the quality assessment. Sounds good, I may pick up one of their simpler ones as the screen isn't something I would use and I don't do wireless.

Come on Plouffe. They're Kailh hot swap sockets because Kailh produces them. If you look at the bottom of the PCB you can see the Kailh logo stamped onto them. There are also ones procuded by Gateron which are largely the same, but Kailh is what most everyone uses. You're being pushed as the LTT keyboard specialist, please live up to the expectation everyone has of you.

the reason you get south facing led is for cherry profile keycaps, you have to have the slope of the keycaps on the bottom. but if you have a shine through keycap, itll look bad if its not north facing. the solution is to buy keycaps that are not cherry profile.

I'm a bit of an epomaker fanboy. I think they make great stuff. They have a couple brands under their umbrella including Akko. My main keyboard is a Epomaker GK96. in the bottom of the case I added tire weights and 2 part pourable silicone to add a bunch of weight and to make it sound better. I also used some kbdfans foam to add between the plat and the PCB. It has lubed Akko CS Jelly Black linear switches and an Akko keycap set which was $40 and it's double shot PBT and has a bunch of extras for just about any config of keyboard.

OMG! I love the beigebox aesthetics of this thing! Looks a lot like the keyboards I had as a kid. Except, like they updated the tech, just never updated the design language. We need to bring beige computers back, I swear.

In our local, there's a keyboard like this too, built-in OLED display, gasket, south-facing switch and programmable knob. It's Fantech Maxfit81 and it's cost less than $100

This may very well be a perfect keyboard for me. Superb episode. Fantastic review of fantastic product. Bitchin.! 👍👍

I want on of these and have an extra deep bottom section 3d printed or molded and slap a framework motherboard in it Also when you the key font look industrial it made me think that these look very similar to the font used on an old fatal cnc in a shop I used to work in. Finally I think the usb a connector ends are supposed to be reminiscent of serial connector

One of these days I'll replace my custom max keyboards nighthawk x7 but at this point, we're 11 years in, and it still feels like the day I got it.

kailh socket meaning that switches with pin like kailh, cherry, gateron ( wider pin ) are compatible, because on cheaper board usually they have outemu socket ( smaller pin ) for example akko, ktt , and other more budget switches, and that cannot fit cherry or other wide pin switches without modification

Does anyone know how to screen shoot in this keyboard

First keyboard that I instantly bought on the spot. With the Flamingo switches though. I also can’t stand silent switches.

I have an Epomaker keyboard. Not this one but I love mine! Battery life could be a bit better but other than that it’s great.
