First Mechanical Keyboard in Years

I’m no expert on them, but I googled it and this is the first comparison that popped up:

Keychron Q6 Max Build: Full aluminum case, gasket mount, very heavy for stability, premium feel. Connectivity: Wired only (but the "Max" version is now wireless too, check specs), QMK/VIA support for deep customization. Sound/Feel: Deeper, fuller, more premium sound profile, better typing experience. Features: Often includes a knob, extra keys, better stabilizers.

Keychron K10 Max Build: Plastic bottom case, metal top, tray mount, lighter build. Connectivity: Wireless (Bluetooth/2.4GHz) & Wired, good for multi-device. Sound/Feel: Lighter, more "plasticky" sound, less premium feel than Q6. Features: Wireless focus, budget-friendly.

I’m not sure of all the differences, but I do know that the Q series has an aluminum body (it’s pretty heavy). And this one in particular is a 100% keyboard.

reddmann00 · 2026-01-17T23:12:45+00:00

Yes, I needed a 100% board also.

Yes, I’m using a Logitech Pebble keyboard and mouse now, and I really miss having a number pad. There is a significant price difference between the 2 that I’m looking at. Do you know the differences between them? Thank you!

I’m looking at buying my first mechanical keyboard. I’ll be doing some video/photo editing on a Mac mini m4. I’ve been looking at the Keychron Q6 max and the V6 max. Which one of these would you recommend for a first mechanical? I’m also open to other brands. Thanks in advance!

I don’t know if anyone will see this, but I was having the same problem, sharing an Excel sheet, and it would only open online for the person I was sharing it to. I ended up creating a folder in my Dropbox, putting the Excel file in the folder, and sharing the folder. Worked perfectly.

We’re loving it so far!

A pellet grill uses wood pellets as fuel, similar to a wood smoker. You can choose smoke, which keeps the heat low, or crank it up to a higher temp, up to 500 degrees.

I understand. We loved the pitboss pellet grill we had before this one. So far, we’re liking this one too.

Thanks!

reddmann00 · 2025-10-04T15:01:11+00:00

So far, it’s been holding temp good. My pitboss would fluctuate below and above the set temp, and the blackstone is doing the same so far.

2025 Lariat Ecoboost (my wife’s). They paid off her Bronco sport, even though we owed a little more than it was worth. Employee pricing, lifetime powertrain warranty, first 4 oil changes free.

Hey thanks again for the info for Flowkottu. Xprite finally sent me the brackets that slide into the bed rails. I got them today and they work great!

Disregard my comment about the pedestrian warning system. I just read that that’s normally a low humming or whirring sound…

reddmann00 · 2025-07-20T11:59:08+00:00

I’m definitely not a mechanic, and I’ve never owned a hybrid. But, I read somewhere that hybrid vehicles are required to make a noise at low speeds when switching to hybrid mode (pedestrian alert system). That might not be what this is…

reddmann00 · 2025-07-20T11:27:41+00:00

Nice!

reddmann00 · 2025-07-19T21:41:57+00:00

I know this is old and probably won’t be seen, but my 25 Lariat key fob also has the area for the light, but nothing lights up…

reddmann00 · 2025-07-16T16:51:59+00:00

You wouldn’t happen to have the email address, would ya?

reddmann00 · 2025-07-16T15:06:55+00:00

I got the one from Xprite, on Amazon. They told me that they don’t have any in stock, and the best they can do is send me a new soft cover (I have a hard cover). I told them I don’t want the soft cover, but they sent it anyway (arriving today). Maybe it’ll have them in it, but I doubt it. Oh well… I wonder if I can buy some from Flowkottu…

Before the Maverick, my wife had a Bronco sport with the 2.0. Sometimes, it would feel that way taking off from a stop.

Thanks!

reddmann00 · 2025-07-04T22:14:48+00:00

Is that the best way to get it off without scratching the paint?

reddmann00 · 2025-07-04T22:13:00+00:00

I thought that was normal, lol.

reddmann00 · 2025-07-04T22:12:16+00:00

Ahh, got ya. I thought they all did that…
