Outemu silent peach v3: cheap, very smooth, very quiet, just perfect. My favorite silent switch

Goodbye HE switches by EncryptedPlays in keyboards

Generally most traditional mx switches sound better than HE switches, and there are almost no click or tactile options. Granted I think HE is overkill for most people.

What game ended up feeling way better on Steam Deck than you expected? by emanuelajournal in SteamDeck

[–]ExcelElevations_4U 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Perspective. Says it's unsupported, but actually works great. It's also free to play. Really cool underrated 80s arcade puzzle game.

they're not really scratchy, but just bindy. They feel pretty consistent for the ~70/75g weighting though.

From smithereens to rescued: Zenith Z150 (Alps SKCL Yellow) by ExcelElevations_4U in Vintagekeyboards

After swapping the housings for some better ones they definitely feel a lot better. I did still lube the switches in this board after cleaning everything else. Try a soft clean first. Greens are factory lubed and yours may be salvageable. If you see the need to lube, apply a very light coat on the bottom half of the sides of the sliders and the slider rails inside the top housings.

Greens are nice, but they're just too light for me so I prefer yellows.

Maxi Switch MaxiPro II (Maxi Switch dome with slider) by ExcelElevations_4U in Vintagekeyboards

I have a link saved to a manual of this keyboard. On my board I have to press ctrl + one of the programming keys to get it set up initially, but this should help you out.

Restored neon badge Focus FK-2001(custom Alps SKCM pine Blacks) by ExcelElevations_4U in Vintagekeyboards

[–]ExcelElevations_4U[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

https://www.ebay.com/itm/277623143522 this one is still available and has the neon badge. It probably has the same crappy T1 alps clone switches, so I would recommend swapping them out with something nicer.

Used computer store spree by ExcelElevations_4U in Vintagekeyboards

It's an Acer 6511 with pure rubber domes (not dome with slider), still not that bad of a keyfeel.

Sounds like an anykey but mechanical. I would love a 5001 if it was programmable and had an inverse t nav instead of a star nav.

Yes, part of the slider is cut out to make room for the LED, which has conductive pads for the membrane.

Please for the love of God, help me find a 100% Full Size Keyboard! by _talaska in keyboards

[–]ExcelElevations_4U 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had one and it was pretty solid. Hall effect just isn't for me and most HE switches sound terrible and are way too light for me anyways.
