Really nice video, I prefer challenges and upgrade videos to reviews so seeing this one made me exited and you did not disappoint. Congrats on the win!

Variety is the spice of life. But we need reviews to know what NOT to buy.

[@lazyboy9310]

Subbing thanks to this video. I have the "same" keyboard as the one in this video, and seeing how easy and relative cheap it can be to modded to sound like a good, decent one is honestly very inspiring. Makes me want to try it after learning more about keyboards, tools everything around it

[@umop3plsdn]

so did you upgrade?!

[@RiskieBiscui]

Ty for this- super helpful. Just an FYI in case it was missed; The "custom cables we use" link in your description isn't hyperlinked all the way. Keep up the good work :D

using the wraith switches (from tecware phantom elite+) was such a big brain move! hahaha Hipyo tech was stumpped! Nice one Betty!

[@Doritos9281]

Pro tip: If you have 5 pin switches and you want them to fit in a 3 socket pcb just clip the 2 plastic legs off the switch

[@Rockett.]

Really surprised she didnt do that in the video!

@@Rockett.they were outemu hotswap sockets, the pins would most likely not fit in the sockets

@@vicenarycave They can technically fit. It just requires a LOT of filing and patience. You'll also ruin your chances of selling the switch at any cost.

I knew you were going to win as soon as I heard that board. Those Wisteria switches are some of the most awesome budget switches. The tactile especially.

[@BetoK1ng]

The funny thing about this video for me is that I went to the UK for 3 months, and I bought this keyboard thinking I would throw it away when I'm done working overseas. To my surprise, I actually loved this small keyboard 😂 I had a small area to work, and this keyboard saved my butt and never once failed me. I didn't have the heart to throw it away, so I made space to bring it back home with me, I still use it when needed. I didn't know I could further customize this keyboard, and this video is giving me ideas

[@Hakuonu]

Prime day i bought a keychron C2 Retro off amazon (cheapest full size hotswap) for 40$. spent 60$ on etsy keycaps 38$ on amazon holy panda switch did the basic foam and tape mods. board sounds great for a budget setup. have it as my work keeb

Hi Betty, if you want a new mousepad you should look at the Saturn pro because it feel the same as the Saturn but it’s softer.

[@hernandezlilis20]

I bought a 20 dollar keyboard and did some mods. Tape and a plastic/ rubber thing that I have in my kitchen cabinets and just bought some switches (creamy yellow) it sounds amazing. I might buy key caps.

[@thewheels1422]

you should order some switch pads just little foam pads that go under the switch. i have a budget keyboard with cream yellows and put the switch pads in them and it made a noticeable change it sounds good!

Outemu sockets are the death of me. So I bought a board to mod for the first time and I bought some gateron gpro yellows and was shocked when I realized that the pins were too wide. Cut to a few days later, a LOT of trimming and I got them to fit. Yay! I actually was looking at wisteria switches, and was planning to trim off the extra legs to fit my 3pin

What is the best macOS wireless hot-swappable 75% keyboard under $120?

[@justinlowery6017]

There may not be a “best,” but subjectively I’d go with a Keychron K3 with Gateron Red Switches on the hot swap PCB and some Krytox 205-G to lube them all with. Two layers of masking tape on the back of the PCB, bandaid mod the stabilizers, rubber o-rings under the key caps, and some Eva foam and poly fill for sound and vibration dampening in the bottom of the case. Replace keycaps last if you can afford it with some double-shot PBTs. Should feel like butter and be super solid and thocky. I did this with a K6 and it came out great.

[@puthenveetilnoel]

@@DiegoEnrique2023 if you want a really easy one for this purpose, you can try the KBDcraft kit Adams. The 60% one with everything included is $100. You build the case from Legos. Switches key caps and plate foam included. Switches are prelubed. Just gotta do the stabs. I personally dig the Lego aesthetic as well. And it sounds great with minimal modding (I holee modded the stabs and tempest modded the PCB). It was my first keyboard build and was really easy. You can also go for the barebones without the switches and keycaps and then pick your own set. switches and keycaps. For like $70 There are definitely cheaper kits, but the value and the Lego aesthetic sold me on it.
