Thank you for the recipe chef 👨🍳 this was my first mechanical keyboard mod so it took me nearly 5 hours to lube all switch’s and stabilizers. I also modified the recipe for my taste and added PE foam and two layers of masking tape. I couldn’t be happier with the thockalicious sound this keyboard is producing now. My Air75 came with one broken cable coming from the battery. Once I fix that small issue this keyboard will be perfect! Thanks for the video!
@@JDrive I managed to fix the battery issue with some needle nose tweezers! I emailed Nuphy and they are actually sending me a new Air75! Excellent customer service!
@UCSI6D_M67g%F0%9F%91%8DCpz-vbg%F0%9F%91%8D%F0%9F%91%8DUHM4yQ That's great news! Gotta give a thumbs up for their service. They are quick in responding emails as well usually 👍
Although the Nuphy Air keyboard is compatible with most Mx style keycaps, it is best to use a lower profile keycaps such as the XDA or DSA profile keycaps to avoid any pinging noise.
That's the meaning of silent keyboard. I love the whole preparation and care to mod the Air 75. I will do the same. Also, thanks for the keycaps suggestion!
Damn, what a well produced and thorough video. I was skeptical but the lubing made a whole bunch of difference. Shame you stopped making videos a while back!
Loved the build! I did want to ask though, do you have any recommendations for shine-through keycaps that would be compatible with the Nuphy Air75? I know they released ones a few months back, but i feel like they are plain and want something a little nicer.
Thanks! The chair that i use is the JÄRVFJÄLLET office chair from IKEA. I also did a short review of it in one of my setup video from the link below: ua-cam.com/video/3M72WLAb9_g/v-deo.html
cant wait for my air60 to arrive, I went with the brown switches. Does lubing brown switches gain any benefits? Or is lubing mostly intended for linear switches?
You'll definitely feel the difference and satisfaction after lubing whichever switch colour. The benefits are easily noticeable, and based on my personal experience, once you go lubed, you never go back 😉
Just lubed mine today. Added a piece of PE foam between the PCB and plate... Sounds dope, tbh, and I def suggest living the browns. I avoided lubing the front side of stem, so as to avoid messing with the tactility. I didn't relube the slabs, yet, but overall they sound good... Mine were factory lubed, pretty gooped. The switches were a pain to reassemble. Anyways, for a budget board, it's super slick when you mod it out. I'd love for some more low profile keycap options.
HI I love your videos !!!!!! :-) I need help Please. With your knowledge probably you know the answer already :-) I own the Nuphy Air75 with red switches. Im looking for replacement springs for the switches with give me 35G or 40g activation force instead of 50g. Could you Please advise me where I can buy the springs or what can I do to make the original switches 35g or 40g? I will really appreciate this Keep up the good work :-)
Regretfully I am not really sure where to get the replacement springs that you’re looking for that can work well with the Nuphy Low Profile Gateron switch, and honestly I am not as meticulous when it comes to the springs activation force. I am actually quite amaze looking your question. It shows how detail you are in the keyboard you use, down to the activation force it. 🙌
They are XDA profile keycaps made of PBT. (My guess is that they're dye-subbed, meaning the graphics have been printed on.) They are *not* low profile keycaps.
I divided the task into 2 days (but if you want to, you can actually finish it all up within a day). The 1st day for me to dismantle everything and try to figure out the parts and started to lube a small amount of switches, just to get use to the parts. The second day basically to finish up everything which include lubing the stabilizers and reassemble the keyboard. From my experience, lubing the low profile optical switch from Keychron K3 is somehow slightly much easier compared to the low profile gateron switch. i guess if you can get a switch opener, that would probably save so much more time and effort as well. But in the end, it’s totally worth it to go through all these hassles knowing that you’ll enjoy the typing experience as well while working and typing your way to finish up any job on hand. Good luck and hope u enjoy your new Air 60 👍
Took me about 5 hours (including a break for dinner, so about 4 hours of work time) to disassemble, lube the switches, and make a PE foam insert for between the pcb and plate. I wasn't moving super fast and I skipped the stabs until I get new keycaps. I want to include some sort of foam for the bottom of the case. It sounds much better, but still a tad hollow.
@@ryanpeyer1947 Me too, lub all the switches took me 5 hours, finally i did it! Except insert a foam haha I don't feel so secure yet about to do something like that. But definitely sounds incredible!!!
So cool! I loved everything in this video, the editing and the cusine reference, also the little bits of humor, keep it up! you got yourself a new fan! Btw, you convinced me to buy the air75 with this video and the previous one comparing to the Keychron K3, thanks for this awesome content!
Actually for this particular caps that I got, I do feel the caps hitting on the plate (specially if I start typing aggressively) specifically more on the space bar and capslock compared to the other keycaps. I guess the lubed switches and springs does help to ease the ping noise. Am intrigued in trying out with DSA profile keycaps though. Might be a better choice.
yup.. you can switch it around as you like, cause the size of the keycaps are basically the same. Too bad the ones that i got here doesn’t have a command keycaps icon for mac users.
honestly speaking I started of uaing the keyboard with all the side lights and back lights turned on and it doesn’t last as long as i wanted it to be, probably for 2 days. But then the backlight didn’t really do much help since the keycaps are not shine through, so there no point turning it on, and recently I have just been using it either with both side light and backlight off, or just having the side light turn on just for the look, and the battery last longer for about 4 days usage before I need to recharge it again.
Enough with the food thing, once is ok i guess, 2 times maibe, but call it grase not sauce i get it u wanted to make an allusion, but u have to kbow when to stop. Like dont keep it up for 10 minutes ..

It's interesting to see that you oiled your switches for this recipe. I usually just throw mine in the air fryer.
😂😂 It’ll turn out crispier if you brush some oil before throwing it in the air fryer 😅
High quality video and love the way the mod sounds! You deserve way more subs! 👍
Nice video! Truely a labor of love, on so many levels.
Great video! I just got my nuphy today and I love it.
How can anyone resist the look of the Nuphy Air keyboard. They're just gorgeous in its own way.👍

There oughta be a full service shop where you can buy these pre-built/pre-modded. I don't have the time nor the patience to lube
what keycap did u use? cant open the link
Should have added a layer of foam on the bottom housing.
Since you like stealthy monotone color, you can consider getting the akko pc75b plus in black....it's not low profile, but quality is great.
it's like 5cm high... nuphy is 1cm...
8:39 nice f4
Are the stabilizer switches also low profile? Or can they be replaced with the typical ones found in non-low profile mech keyboards?

Great mod. What keycaps are you using? are these some special low profile keycaps?
They are XDA profile keycaps made of PBT. (My guess is that they're dye-subbed, meaning the graphics have been printed on.) They are *not* low profile keycaps.
where can i buy the pbt keycaps for qwertz (German layout)
i order mine today from ymdkey, i think i had to buy the normal full layout and the german adjustment.. will see in a month when they arrive :)
How much lube did you end up using for this meal?
I think it's less than 3g of krytox 205G0 lube
Pffff excellent job!
I''m waiting my nuphy air 60 and i wanna do the same.
how long did take all this job?

Interesting! I tried a couple XDA keycaps on my nuphy and they all hit the plate. Did you not have the issue with these?
