The Holy Grail - Monokei x TGR 910 v2 ME Unboxing

[@dill-keebs]

I just wanted to say, thank you to everyone for the support you have given me on this video! This has truly made me so happy and grateful! I have not stopped smiling ear to ear. I wish all of you the best Christmas/ Holidays surrounded by loved ones, all of you have truly made mine! One last update, I have two further videos planned in the coming months, one on the Darkmoon ashes switches by IV Works and a video on the QK60 whenever it arrives. If you enjoyed this video I’m hoping you’ll be interested in those!

[@AvinashKunjamboo]

Loved this dude! Thank you so much for the kind words and the shout too - AND you're a fellow Aussie! Hell yeah! You've done an awesome job with the thumbnail, I remember catching it on insta a few weeks back. Keep up the good work, this video was fun to follow. Hope you have a good Christmas mate!

[@dill-keebs]

Thanks so much Avi, you’re a huge inspiration for many people like myself getting into the hobby. I only hope that I too can make something that others can enjoy! Us Aussies are few and far between haha. Have a merry Christmas!

[@breasthopper]

Not gonna lie, a few seconds in and the first thing that came to mind was, "Why does this remind me of Avi, are they connected or from the same studio or something." only to find your comment down here haha. Great content, immaculate style, I'll be keeping my eyes out for more! And the wine incident 😬

[@Glarses]

gj with this man

[@dill-keebs]

Thanks Glarses! This means so much to me!

[@SuperGangles]

Hey! Nice video. I think the issue you had with the o-ring mount is a result of using screw in stabilizers. There’s a lot of o-ring boards out there that the o-ring mount will only work with clip in stabs. Just due to the stabilizers being smaller and giving the o-ring more room to tuck into the gap.

[@dill-keebs]

Hey! Thanks so much for the reply, I had thought this might have been the case but I’ve never used clip in stabilizers before so I wasn’t sure. I’ll definitely pick some up now and see if that makes a difference! I really appreciate the comment!

[@sicositsu]

I also had this problem when using stabies, I just ended up shoving the o-ring into the crevice and hoping nothing would break. It’s been like a month with the jane now and it still seems fine.

[@z4k1_zaki65]

Yes this was the issues. Most of the time you'll need clip-in stabilisers to work with an o-ring mount board as they have a smaller housing and no screws!

[@sammy-uy8hb]

i absolutely love the calm jazz style of videos you and avi make, even better that yall are from oceania

[@dill-keebs]

Oceania represent! Calm Jazz is peek haha

[@ownalicous1]

I have recently switched over to tactile switches again, the baby kangaroo switches lubed and filmed create a really strong marbly sound that is so satisfying.

[@ImShortt]

I was watching this expecting 10k+ MINIMUM subs and when I looked… 54 subs, can’t believe the quality of the video with such low subs, You sir have potential

[@dill-keebs]

Haha thank you so much! This has been such a great experience I can’t wait to create more

[@Oogtug]

@Dillon Pretty confident the O-ring build is only compatible with clip in stabs to allow the o ring to seat flush between plate and PCB, the screw gets in the way of this happening on your stabs.

[@dill-keebs]

Yeah it definitely seems like thats the case! I’ll pick some up and see what difference it makes! Appreciate it!

[@TWJYILY]

Bought a TGR 910 Blush Pink on a whim, and was taken aback with how incredible this board sounds. I have a TGR Jane v2 ME, and personally I love the 910's sound profile far more than the Jane. Very surprised, and very happy with this build. This just might be my endgame keyboard, apart from a Singa Unikorn or a fully custom commissioned build.

[@hrinn]

i clicked on this because of the nice thumbnail, and i stayed for the high quality commentary. great job!!! you deserve a bigger audience :)

[@Constant_o2y]

aye number 300 follower, great production quality!

You pretty much can't gummy oring mount with screw in stabs. U need to use clip ins like cherry or tx for the gummy oring to fit

[@miltondanielsson5678]

Really Nice Vid! Thoroughly enjoyed it!

Thanks so much, it means a lot!

BAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAANGER!!!!! Great work man :)

[@fluffykeebz]

YT just recommended your video to me and it was such a delight to watch! Also I am so glad your board survived despite your best attempts at getting it drunk 😂

[@dill-keebs]

Haha thank you! I think it must prefer white wine 🤣

[@flyingwhales1991]

I won a re-roll for the 910! Great video and nice build

[@rodok3836]

Really nice video, I like the mood, theming as well as commentary. Subbed and can't wait to see more

[@samaxon8983]

Should of used KTT Red Wine Switches in the rebuild 😂 Great video though! Quality is incredible!

[@dill-keebs]

Haha I hadn’t even heard of those switches, but now I want them 🤣

[@JtwasLuck]

Great video, BTW you have to use clip-in stabs to do gummy o-ring mount.

[@dill-keebs]

Thanks! I’ve been converted to TX clip ins now haha

[@JtwasLuck]

@@dill-keebs Yeah TX stabs are amazing, still waiting for my ME before trying them out but I've heard great things!

[@sleepy_teethtv]

I just got into the hobby so I'm watching a ton of different videos to learn from and obsess over and want to somehow include the hobby into my streams and I have to say, the quality you've put into your videos is nuts. You're making content that I expect from a sextuple digit subscriber count creator. Keep up the good work, man. You've got my sub.

[@dill-keebs]

I appreciate this so much, thank you!

[@muCephei_]

Been in this hobby for a few years now and I can say if you're looking for a good keyboard, anything custom works. A high end keyboard will not offer much more at this point other than aesthetics, if that has value for you.

[@sleepy_teethtv]

@@muCephei_ I think the same can be said about PC building. Aesthetics come hand in hand imo. Been building computers for more than a decade and this keyboard hobby seems to resemble that same quality for me to a degree.

[@hypekeyboards]

I'm also an Avi fan! I can say you did an amazing job as well! + sub

[@dill-keebs]

Thank you very much!

[@APKLL]

bro this is a really good looking video!

[@dill-keebs]

Appreciate it!

[@onehitking9124]

You should use Clip in stabs such as cherry clip ins or tx stabs(very good btw) so that it doesnt interfere with the gummy o ring. Screw in inteferes with it, therefore unabling u to do gummy o ring mount unless u sand off the stabs to fit the gummy o ring. I like your style of content and your effort in getting the thumbnail. Good luck man

[@dill-keebs]

Cheers! I’ll pick up some tx stabs and see how they go!

[@hide598]

Thanks for the video. Now after listening to this, I’m not sure why would I pay so much for this board other than the name and logo. 👍🏻

[@anybaal6071]

Love the video ! First time on your channel, im happy to have discovered your channel in my recommendations, +1 sub Keep up the good work and merry Christmas

[@w.ave_]

your videos are goals my friend! i hope some day i can make videos like this. Subbed.

Wow.. Im upset to see you with 148 subscribers tbh i thought u had like 400k subs when i saw your video. Im about to subscribe I see you grow now lol you'll get bigger one day !! I cant wait for the day Keep it up

[@CheeseTurbulence]

Funny, I clicked on this video thinking "that's a really great thumbnail, but didn't I see it somewhere else before? nah, just my stupid brain playing tricks on me again." But then there was a great video behind the thumbnail too, great work! 🙂

[@dill-keebs]

[@husainyard]

Love the production bro. Avi's style were really inspiring and cozy, i thought im gonna try compliment it in my editing too. Btw what camera did you use?

[@dill-keebs]

I know right! His style is so cozy! I appreciate the comment, it means a lot! You should definitely give it a go! I use the Sony A6000 with the Sony FE 50mm f/1.8. Pretty much every shot you see if filmed from the other side of the room so it’s hard to recommend for wide angles haha

[@husainyard]

@@dill-keebs all this beautiful shots only using A6000? Freakin heaven, i thought at least A7III or even BMPCC. You tweak the neutral profile to make it look like LOG right? Or something else? Planning to get a ZVE10 tho. Wish me luck.

[@dill-keebs]

Haha the A7III would be the dream, and I’m sorry but the only editing I did was chucking a premiere pro default LUT on, like a filter 😅. I’m really clueless when it comes to most of this haha! Best of luck with the ZVE10, or maybe I’ve convinced you on the A6000 haha!

​@@dill-keebsi mean these are like 1 in 10k chance lol, very lucky to get anything

[@dill-keebs]

True, hopefully we are very lucky haha

[@th3druminator]

Pretty unacceptable to me to have parts falling out of a keyboard this expensive.

[@z4k1_zaki65]

It could be the alchohol he used to clean the board causing the adhesive to dissolve out, I might be wrong tho. Good thing that Monokei is handling the issues quite fast, something that is hard to come by in this niche hobby.

[@dill-keebs]

I can totally see where your coming from, my thought process was that considering the board itself was in perfect condition and the magnets has not yet fallen out it would have passed qc without issues. I checked beforehand and while isopropyl alcohol can technically remove the adhesive I don’t believe the amount I used could have caused a reaction like this. Luckily all was able to be fixed and this seems like a unique case!

[@darster2y]

I also had a 910 from monokei where the magnets fell out. Shit quality really a disgrace of the TGR name for this 910

[@awry22]

The words "Monokei" and "Grail" doesn't go together. Grail repilica maybe. Great video and filming nonetheless.

[@joao.gonzalez]

So sad it's ASCII :(

honestly that board is not match with boba U4T

[@aesric]

a tad hollow

[@adonespitogonaif]

As a programmer, seeing people type with one finger makes me cringe. Really takes away the aesthetics of the keyboard.

[@acsgdo02]

Nothing special about IMO yep correct it's subjective

[@involuntarysoul3867]

$500 and does not even come with a doughterboard, very lazy design. Kalam gaf 910 is so much better for similar price

[@WangTmg]

Why does it sound horrible

[@JeffWaynee]

You lost me when you spilled wine on it. People who keep drinks on their desk obviously have no respect for their system and accessories.

[@_Murky_]

This comes across as very fake and scripted

[@matt-lang]

Anyone looking for a budget build should check out KBDfans' sales on switches. I got sets of Gateron and Kailh switches for $1-1.50 per 10x. So a full 100 switches was only $10. Made me feel better about spending $70 on Novelkeys and they sound pretty great overall.
