[@verodeus]

friendship ended with tealios now durock L series is my best friend

[@Donbros]

all jwk is basically a replacement of zeal switches (because they are actually same switches because durock remade tealios non legally and then made it legal and cheaper, read stealios controversy). I tried two versions official and not - they are actually same, if there are differences those are negligibal. It was not nice move of jwk, but zeal overpricing switches is not super nice too, so yeah

[@meemattt]

@@Donbros So the L7s are basically Tealios?

[@Donbros]

@@meemattt they should be really similar. I think jwk switches with new materials may be different, but those transparent recolors should be super similar. It is like tealios deritatives with changes

[@meemattt]

@@Donbros I see I see. Glad to hear then, I could definitely try some L7s to save a little bit. I want Tealios', but they are just so expensive. And your 2nd statement, would that mean a Durock T1 is a Zealios V2 clone?

[@jldkrank]

@@meemattt I have both Zealios v2 and T1's and they are very similar but there is a difference on the followthrough after the bump which both start at the top. Personally I prefer the Zealios, especially because I live in Canada, so shipping for Zealios are cheaper for me because Zeal is Canadian, and once I get T1's shipped here they're about the same price at the end of the day. The T1's are VERY good, and if you can get them for a good price I'd say go for it, but there is something special about the Zealios that the T1 doesn't QUITE match.

“Pop sound” that’s exactly what it is. I’ve been trying to decide how to describe the sound of them and Pop is spot on. Love me some zeal pc switches but you are exactly right they are not worth $1 a switch. But if you can get them on sale like I did go for it.

[@fantasyrulz]

have been using my tealios for some months now and like it alot. its totally trasnparent so RGB shows really well compared to the smokey or translucent housing of other switches. 205g0 and krytox 105 spring lubbed with tx .15 filmed its really really smooth to type on. no doubt the sounding of it is higher pitch but its so satisfying compared to deeper sounding switches which could sound "hollow" if not sound isolated well enough. that to me is worth the $1 as you can use it for a long long time, and since its so well made removing it from hotswapped board is also so much easier compared to JWK switches. To me i would say its well worth the money 100%. I have got Black Inks waiting to be build on some up coming build and will give my take on how good it is

Tactile and clickies sucks when you still follow cherry design. Even if zeealios is better. If you want tactile and clicky to not suck you need to get away from it not try to just do better. The clicky kailh's boxes got the right idea for example. But we can and should do even better9

I understand if you don't see this but It would be helpful if a youtuber that I know has some reputation and experience in the keyboard building industry. Thanks!

Im pretty confident that if you want a smoothness comparable to tealios its better to get the black inks, they are also made by gateron, and are cheaper while still high end

[@eraserheadSH]

they are just recolored Durock Ls, equally manufactured by JWK. only difference is they should have a UHMWPE bottom housing (which is unlikely, UHMWPE is not transparent, unlike OA's bottom housing. it's probably a nylon/UHMWPE mix, with the latter in a minimal quantity).
