I actually really like the sound of silent keyboards. Like I know the point is to not have a sound, but I find that subtle dampened sound really satisfying
The quietest keyboard is the one that displays the Keys with a laser, so If it displays the Keys on your bed it will be close to unbeatable in being quiet
The O-rings are literally OP at noise cancelling. You could skip the spray lubing and foam and just stick some O-rings in the switches and it would be quiet af! :-|
You have to keep in mind that the sound of you touching the keys makes a sound that doesn't happen when you press the keys down, so technically this keyboard is almost 100% silent
I'm always in a good mood after watching Switch and Click. This channel has great vibes and has THIS novice typer hooked! Learned how to type 3 years ago with two broken pinkies and am thinking of getting my own keyboard for this college semester, and modding it! Of course I will come back and watch all of the videos.

WD40 as lubricant, especially for plastics, is not a good idea. The solvents in it will disintegrate many plastics over time -- crazing, cracking and discoloring them.
1 star. It needs to be so loud so that when I’m gaming, the only thing my teammates can hear are the sounds of me crushing my keys. Obviously this is a joke; I’m actually very intrigued on how one could make a silent keyboard.
After months and months of watching your videos and other UA-camrs, I finally got myself a Redragon K552. I was surprised to find a keycap puller in the box and 4 extra switches. Will try different types and application of lubrication to see which one performs best. I think I can sacrifice ScrLk and Pause keys as well in the name of Sayence. These are Outemu Blues so have to experiment.
@@evilsmileyface Its not the extra pins that are the problem, Outemu sockets are thinner than Gateron/Cherry switch pins, so before swapping the pins need be either clipped or dremeled. I have ordered a tester pack with a few Gateron Kailh and Gazzew switches. I will try swapping the lower housing on the Gats to see if they work. Its all experimentaion from now on. :P
Good stuff. I always wanted a key board that only lit up the characters on the keys, not the back ground. Much easier to see, especially in darker settings. Suppose I can just build it.
I love the keycaps! I really want those, now! lol I am running kaihl speed copper switches. I like how they sound, but those switches you used... Sheesh! So damn quiet! lol Also, the nimbleback is my most favorite keyboard to modify. It has so much potential, with such a small form factor. :D

I love how betty is always in a constant state of quiet screaming
@@hexa3171 ₐₐₐₐₐₐ
So true!
Perfect description.
AAAaaaaAaa. STONKS BRRRR SHEEEEEESH
Dam son, perfect analogy that.
Betty feels like she’s screaming constantly but trying not to wake her parents and I love it lmaoo
I like how she is either on the edge of quiet screaming or she just sounds so energetic but bored at the same time
that literaly makes me so mad her voice is so fkin annoying when she is ,,energic" and call me a hater, its the truth
@@MarPumps i agree with you
@@MarPumps I find her quiet screaming funny so it's an opinion not the truth
@@MarPumps nah you're not hater you just need to learn when your imput is necessary
@@MarPumps yeah it's so fucking annoying
I like how they held such a tedious competition just to decide where to eat
It takes less time this way
It’s almost surreal to see such quiet keyboards
The quietest keyboard is the one that displays the Keys with a laser, so If it displays the Keys on your bed it will be close to unbeatable in being quiet
Ironically it'd be the loudest since you'd be raging so hard about there inaccuracy and slow typing speed. I'd measure it at -Chyrosan22 db

Tip: You could make it quieter by just removing the switches and keycaps
then it wouldn't be a keyboard
@@TheRealBatabii It would be a board.
I love how Betty does that whispering energetic voice while Jake is around
The O-rings are literally OP at noise cancelling. You could skip the spray lubing and foam and just stick some O-rings in the switches and it would be quiet af! :-|
and feel mushy af
@@ireadysucks3026 She ain’t going for “feel” 😆 meets the brief
Remember that they also reduce travel and make them feel like you're missing out on the feeling of hitting the bottom...
But they also ruin the feel of the switches
Since these are op for noise cancelling, why not just call them "OP-rings"?
Guys. Youre awesome. I came to channel by accident and i love it! xoxos from poland!
thank you ☺️
That's a really quiet keyboard, unlike mine which can wake up a person in a whole other room.
Mine can wake up someone in another country

Silent switches look so fine, I'm beginning to think the o rings, key caps and all the ingredients cost more than the actual keyboard, lol
the keycaps alone cost more than the keyboard
O rings are cheap
How budget is your board my guy
spend too much on every single stuff and forgot to buy keyboard
I was seeing some keycaps that I wanted to put in my keyboard and they literally cost 70% of the actual price of my keyboard xDD
You have to keep in mind that the sound of you touching the keys makes a sound that doesn't happen when you press the keys down, so technically this keyboard is almost 100% silent
I'm so glad I found your channel. Really love the content you bring plus your such a joy to watch. Proud to be a subscriber.
Thank you so much!!
If i probably make my own custom keyboard i will mess up all the keys
7:23 Technically, if you don't screw the PCB down all the way, and it's resting on the silicone, it becomes a DIY gasket mount. It's a feature!
Jake my boy is gonna be a good UA-camr if he ever starts a channel❤

JAKE REVEAL
me: i can make the quietest keyboard too
(quiter than this)
*writes keyboard on the paper*
me: ez ez ez
mom: jit trippin
I just love the personalities. I can watch you guys for hours.
I thought no way would I spend that much time on it, and then I remembered I’m doing a cross stitch project.
How to make a quiet keyboard:
Step. 1: buy the worlds quietest switches
Step. 2: buy the worlds quietest keycaps
Step. 3: give up because you have no clue how to build a keyboard
When this keyboard is just perfect for playing secretly overnight >:)
Like me lol
Or those late hours exploring ideas on Reddit
So is everyone gonna ignore the fact that Betty is watching mr. Beast while lubing the switches?
oh gOD nO
no context
Well HOW DID YOU SEE THAT
IDK
I saw that and was laughing
i actually enjoy your content tyy
"I thought I was gonna have to get arthritis or something.."
*continues jitter clicking in bedwars*
The lack of reaction to the AC being turned off. I was anticipating that being a major factor in your build process! haha great video!
I'm loving this channel, congratulations on the work :)
Betty sounds so exited and that’s very cool she enjoys doing videos and we enjoy watching them
Ayyy thanks
Betty, thank you for making this keyboard because I can silently play at 4 am without interrupting my parents
Ah, finally a keyboard to play at 3:am without my mom knowing. Thank you
Love your energy!!!
I love how excited she is that she gets to pick dinner
(also sushi is a great choice ngl)
spoiled it :(
Spoiler alert
whyyy
Ok I have to admit, I wanted him to win, but sushi? You better keep winning.
'smells like burning plastic' yeaaaaah... that's the WD40 literally breaking down the chemical structure of the switch housings
Melting switches would be so silent!
@@CaveyMoth no switch will be the most silent
You guys should try making the loudest keyboard next

Betty is honestly just such a bundle of joy she makes my day
Thank you!
i followed every step but my parents still shout at me at 3AM for bothering them with my key strokes 😂
its so cool to see how much your channel has grown in the past year. Love the authenticity and fun content!!!
Thank you so much!!
Yipee!
WD40 as lubricant, especially for plastics, is not a good idea. The solvents in it will disintegrate many plastics over time -- crazing, cracking and discoloring them.
That wasnt the og wd40 though, iirc the yellow cap one is lithium based
Dumbass thinks someone would use petroleum based wd 40 on a keyboard.
Yup. It's a common misconception that WD-40 can be used for stuff like this. WD-40 is, in fact, _not_ a lubricant, and will destroy stuff like this.
This was such a joy to watch! Your humor is top-notch, keep that game up! ;)
thank you ☺️
glad to see a really good/high effort implementation of the quietest keyboard challenge!
Glad you like it!
Honestly really impressed with the results 9:55 btw
