    i have to advise advise against excessive amounts of grease to dampen noise. (not hatin'!) it does work, but collects dust and debris that ends up scratching up the plastic over years to come. wrapping the bars with plumber's PTFE tape is the cleaner long and more concervative long term solution. (just make sure to stretch it out fully, or it will wear faster)

    About those kinds of stabilizers, if you don't clip off the pointy stems that are on the bottom, it will destroy the PCB and also have a dampening effect with the overall stroke. Not sure. When I pressed on the keys that are stabilized, I felt like a dampening effect on those keys and I think they are coming from the stabilizers. They don't feel like you are pressing it all the way down that you would feel from the switch. The Royal Kludge RK61 has that problem, but when it comes from the Ducky One 2 Mini, the keys with the stabilizers feel awesome! Just like any other key. Also on the RK61, the switches they use are "RK Red" switches. Not really sure what they are, but they are not that good as the "s" key has stopped responding to my strokes. I'd rather go with a company like Cherry that has tested their switches and go with the real deal.

    Are there any disadvantages to clipping the stabilizer? Why do they even bother to have them if everyone just cuts them?

      This is from another comment:
      "That's simply how they were designed (originally by Cherry). I think it was meant to make the bottom-out less harsh. That said, all it really does is make the key feel broken or otherwise wrong. Ever since I began using a keyboard with clipped and lubed stabs (and GMK screw-ins, at that), I've never been able to go back to even well-lubed Costars."

    do you still recomend using Dielectric grees and Teflon Grease in 2020 or krytox205g0 is better?

    • @DrHades-kh5xm
      @DrHades-kh5xm 4 роки тому +3

      Nathan still uses both Dielectric Grease and Teflon for stab lubing. The big difference between them and traditional switch lubes is their unrivaled viscosity; they're just way to thick for use on switches, yet just thick enough to make a super smooth stab.

      @@zach_morgan the only bad thing would be that you used 205g lube for nothing. Test it out, if it does what u want then good, make sure not to put too much since it's thicc. If it doesn't work, use a qtip or something alike to clean it off. When it comes to lubing stuff testing youself is the best way to find answers!

    Really dig the attention to detail. The fact that this has to be a "mod" and not something that the manufacturer produces is disappointing though. I just bought a K95 Platinum and it had the loose/rattling stabilizers. My fix was hot gluing them down and adding a little bit of lube.
    I am guessing the loose stabilizer is just a characteristic of cherry mx?

    • @phiandrew8994
      @phiandrew8994 6 років тому

      Indeed. Do you have any tips on lubing stabs without disassembly? My hot glue and the type of lube I used (very thin) turned out to not do much.

    Do you need three different lubricants for your board?
    I've seen other tutorials do both the stabilizer wires and housing and switches with their g205g0. Will that work?

    • @gugujee
      @gugujee 4 роки тому

      Edit: read your question wrong at first. No you don’t need to use three different types. 205g is more expensive though so some people prefer to use cheaper greases since you need to use a bit more on the wires.
