This is so helpful, without doing much research i figured slow springs and progressive were complete opposites, i like tactile feel but prefer the sound of linears, so was thinking of picking up progressives (thinking they were heavier on top and lighter near bottom out) this video was so enlightening

I originally spring swapped my Gat Black Ink springs to TX 14mm (Short) 65g, but didn't like how easy it was to press down and accidentally input keys, so I swapped them again for TX 16mm (Long) 67g. Feels so much better with the return and it actually requires a little more force to actuate the key press! Highly recommend the long 16mm version. Obviously weight is subjective but I find 67g was a sweet spot for me on linear switches. I use the stock 62g Boba U4Ts (tactile switch) on my other keyboard and they feel fine.

It does feel kinda odd how everyone in the community recommends lubing switches, but don't recommend spring swapping as much. I think it matters as much, maybe even more, especially to those that can't find their perfect switch.
@tinstypos Жыл бұрын
YES agreed, I think swapping the springs can make a pretty big difference to any switch. Don’t like your alpacas? Just spend $10 and get some new springs and boom, new switch basically

I'm modding my first keyboard and haven't even recieved it yet and I'm fallen so deep as springs now... I've decided the slow extreme springs would probably be best for me due to my partialness towards my corsair k55 membrane feel I'm currently using temporarily. And now I just need to decide between TWENTY different variations of the spring. What a nightmare. Thanks for the detailed advice!! Very few videos on this subject. Also, I went with the Gateron Box Ink v2 - Blacks.
@tinstypos Жыл бұрын
honestly it can be hard to tell the difference when it comes to small variations of a spring...like the difference between a slow extreme I and II is pretty minimal. Good thing it's cheap to get a set of springs and try them out!

@Drunken_Hamster29 күн бұрын
Is there anything that's like a combo of multi-stage and lengthened "slows"? I think I might like that poppy preload feel at the top, but I also kinda want some bottom-out protection once you get past the actuation point. I've currently only ever had basic bitch red (linear) and blue (tactile) switches and like the reds much more. Pretty sure in general I'm gonna be a linear enjoyer in the long term, especially because my 12 switch assorted tester came with a couple tactiles and they just feel like crappy linears that hang up/drag/scratch.

Looking to swap out the 70g Black Ink springs and trying to decide between slow and supreme. This was a great video but I’m still undecided 😀
@tinstypos2 жыл бұрын
Do you feel like the 70g spring is too heavy at all or just perfect? If it feels just right, then I would maybe go for a 68g slow spring since they make the switch feel a little heavier. Or go a little lighter like 63.5 or 65g if you think 70g is too heavy. If you don’t want the bump in the middle of the spring, then try a diff weight Supreme spring!
@ivanaviNiebla2 жыл бұрын
What exactly do you mean by the bump in the Multistage springs? how does the travel feel in the first and second halves? Does it start light and weight ramps up quickly until halfway, and then it stops getting heavier?

@spirited16892 жыл бұрын
Hi Tin. Apologies if I missed this in your video but which type of spring has the snappiest return?
@ivanaviNiebla2 жыл бұрын
Those should be the Slow Extreme III, although I don't know if they are as snappy as 22mm springs from other brands. These should be the snappiest as they maintain a very similar force throughout all the travel, while normal springs start very light and become heavier and heavier as you press them, so they can lose force on the return when they go from heavy to light while they have to carry the stem and keycap. Let's say: A normal 14mm 60g spring starts at 30g and bottoms out at 60g A long 22mm 60 spring starts at 55g and bottoms out at 60g The real weightings change by brand and switch where you install them, but it's something like that. And I think you should buy 22mm from another brand instead of Long Extreme III just in case, to really feel the difference, as SPRiT springs might not be long enough.
