Glarses, I need your guidance. I'm Team Tactile at heart, but lubed and filmed Gateron Black Ink V2s swooped in to become my current favorite switch, and then I also spring swapped and lubed some Durock POM Linears and they're also good. I feel l may be straying from the Tactile path.
"They come without any factory lube on it, and the only way to make 'em good is by putting some on yourself" Idk man, putting switch lube on myself seems kinda weird, but if you say so

@@ZASKboom Excuse me Zakar1ya? What are you saying about my comment? What in tarnation are you rambling on about? Do you have any idea how long it took for me to write that comment? Keycap designer? Why dont you go design yourself some comments? PFFT!
@@xtrasin6659 It's because the Artic is where the North whereas the Antarctic is where Antarctica is. Penguins are in Antarctica so they are telling OP to check their maps.
I have never seen a blue penguin before, so I searched up "blue penguin" and found some penguins that look similar to the penguin in your thumbnail and learned that they're called Little penguins and at this point I'm confused how I went from waiting for a Hipyo Tech Video to looking at Little Penguins.
'Nother fun fact! (I love these Penguins!). You can watch them come in from the ocean to their burrows every night at Phillip Island in Victoria. Beautiful part of the world and it's something I always recommend to visitors to the area.
This is nuts , like the stuff I did to mod my inline skates in the 90s. Special bearings , lightspeed oil , custom vacuum-formed foot-beds , the works.
That fun fact was, in fact, VERY important! I'd switch to tactile simply because of this. My gf absolutely loves penguins. I just decided to build her a custom keyboard and it starts right here with these.
They sound nice. Not "give up my Gateron Ink Yellows" nice, but still nice. I usually can enjoy Tactile Gang Initiation rites for about two weeks before back to linear crispness.
I really wanted to like these switches, but I just can't. Instead of saying the generic commentary of "they suck", my main gripe was the upstroke that it felt like it was a "stuck" feeling. Lubed with 205g0 and lube bagged the springs and tried another batch (this time with lighter lube--I like to lube my switches a tad bit more so wanted to see if they respond better with lighter lube) and it was the same thing. Apparently other folks had the same experience I had. They will still go on a Penguin theme board i'm going for with the Adelie, Penguin Switches, with Penguin Artisans (still have halfway to go) but in short not my favorite of the tactile group. I hope there will be other revisions on it because.. it's penguins... and aesthetically they look nice if you're going for a frost theme.

What an excellent video! So much quality in both video/audio and personality. Not to mention an interesting switch that looks awesome. Liked and subbed :)
When I switched from clicky to linear I kinda missed the feeling of feedback from the switches when gaming so the dragonfruit switches have felt pretty nice. It's interesting that you had basically the opposite experience I did when gamjng
You ever gone to see the Penguin Parade? I try and go a couple times a year (sadly haven't been in nearly 16 months, bloody Covid) so am itching to go again soon.
This guy's vocal patterns and cadence make him sound incredibly similar to JerryRigsEverything. He could be his brother, or his younger self. Just an interesting thing I noticed about his voice :)
Not sure why people dislike tactile for gaming. It's what I've been using for years. I feel like the tactile bump is what let's me know I haven't misclicked. It's also very satisfying!
Personally I am a linear gang member too. My journey first starts by loving Cherry MX blue. Now i am using my lubed Roselios. Seeing this review, just made me wonder, if you have ever tried the lubed TTC tea switches. I think they were aming for a topre feeling when designing the switch. I personally find them very satisfying on my Drop Alt High Profile. it looks like you are a big fan of the ID80 which is frame mount too [correct me if I am wrong]. In short, I think you will like the TTC tea switches on ID80 when lubed (with their weird switch dampening methods.) :)
I saw these on reddit when they released and I bought them solely based on the fact that they were inspired by little penguins :) Planning to put them in my gmmk pro when it finally arrives
I'm a member of tactile gang, well i think. I have no idea. I just like when i'm able to feel when i finish the keypress. However linereas are still good, and i can't decide wich i prefer. As of now i am using tactile.
Better than a GLORIOUS PANDA? Hmm. 1) glorious pandas hit the spot for me, holy ones are harder to come by and more expensive, I can live with the glorious... 2) I really like the tactility of the panda switches... I am very curious if these are better than that. I actually use gateron speed coppers, I am a very light typer so I miss keys on a heavier switch, even fairly light keypresses on light linear switches don't always register, but the coppers force me to feel the bump which is fairly easy to actuate and 1mm in, but I just can't shake the pandas, have them on my numpad, f keys, esc and shift as well. I just love that chonky clonk...
Okay I gotta say this your voice sound the same to some channels in YT where its contents is about history and fun facts which is sooo convincing 😂 but as always your videos are awesome 😎
I'm still new to all this, but I think of myself as a tactile guy. I thought I'd love clicky before I got started, didn't really, and went immediately to tactile. since I skipped over linear, I recently ordered a couple of Oil Kings to test (among maybe one or two other linears, and a bunch of tactiles). I loved the sound of the Oil Kings, and the smoothness, but I found I _really_ miss the bump. so, this lighter weight lube approach might be the solution for me.
Bought 10 to try. Its tactility is similar to MX Brown but sharper, and it's tactile bump is between light and medium. Definitely better than MX Brown, though not much better. It would be perfect for me if it has a bigger tactile bump. It is already using a 19mm long string, so there is not much you can do to improve its tactility.
I haven't gotten into mechanical keyboards yet, and the biggest deterrent is the process of lubing. I want to switch keycaps and switches, but I definitely don't want to spend the time required to lube every switch.
Lubing is not a necessity. There's lots of switches to choose from, some are factory lubed, some are not. I'd recommend to buy a few in small quantities and see what you like most.
When I first got into Mechanicals. I was into the clicky's but quickly got annoyed. My manager hated it when I was typing during calls. LOL Then I when full thock. I tried many switches. The last batch where some Gateron Yellow Linear Switches. Lubed, stem change to 63.5, and while they felt great, the typing experience wasnt for me. I realized more and more, I need that bump to type comfortably. Recently, I picked up dk Saru Tactile Switches, and boy are these excellent. I lubed them lightly, and they feel terrific. I think I have found my happy medium. I am going to stick with Tactiles from now on. I really tried several linears, but not my cup of tea.

If you want visible switches, there's always acrylic cases and seethrough keycaps

Lubing is a very tedious process. For beginners it can be challenging but once you get the hang of it isn’t too bad.
Sharp tactile bump that doesn't consume the entire travel? no way....
