mod your low profile keyboards NOW! | Keychron K1
Просмотров 38 тыс.2 года назад
low profiles, underdogs of the mechanical keyboard world. no enthusiast would be caught dead using this type of keyboard as their daily driver. but what of minimalists who likes the sleek look of these bad boys? well my friends, i have now brought you the solution to having the minimal look and also having that THOCC sound out of your board! official keychron k1 disassembly guide: www.keychron....
What is the clap for?
Or just get one with optical red switches 😅
and then you still have to modify it
my k1 max doesn't close properly even with one layer of tape. I can force it to close but it bends.
omg those sides... if anybody struggles with it it's just slide up not pull it to the sides. I almost broke the whole keyboard in half struggling with it.
Oh yeah! Slap that space bar!!
yoooo nice vid this really helps
me like. me want now.... 😯
lol why the spamming of the space key 😂
Для чего используется клейкая лента? Для дополнительной звукоизоляции или от влаги?
Звукоизоляция
does your keychronhave a issue where if u press the button it sometimes doesnt register?
Do we have any software for key mapping for k1? I have tried to use VIA but seems like its not working.
No this version of K1 does not support VIA
so I'm not the only one struggling to get it open I see..
that space bar is terrible
Is it okay to lube k1 blue switches?
My left ear loved that
i sure hope that tape is non-conductive
It's supposed to be more silent
bruh.. girls lubing things is great.
Feeling could be night and day, compared to the sound. Cherry low profile reds feel TERRIBLE when they arnt lubed, incredibly scratchy.
Can i install optical switches on the k1?
you can choose K1 SE with optical switches. i think it has been sold our for at least 6 months.
it is half price now for the K1 V5 optical
Amazinggg
Blue switches are the best, thocky switches are bad (just my opinion)
Do you need to solder the switches?? if you want to change the switches?
There is a hot swappable version where you do not need to solder, and there is a non hot swap version that you do need to solder.
Hi. Where did you buy your foam? Or how thick is the foam you used?
I'm pretty sure it's the foam that came inside the box for the keyboard. I just got my K1-SE today and it has a little foam protective layer that looks exactly like that
OMFG!!! That THOCK!!!! btw question.... is it feel wobble??
Oh yeah? FU 2! 🎉😂
you shuold use gated soudn while testing stuff like this
well, that tape and foam really made a nice difference ! I will try this on my blackwidow v3 mini as well as the K7 !
great vid! first time modding so i did the foam and tape on my K1 after seeing this. I have banana switches coming in today. I just want more keyboards now and more mods to do. send help
Does lubing solve any issues like sticking keys?
it sounds smoother
Is it possible to change the whole plate in the version with soldered switches?
How hard it is to get full set of keycaps for K1?
You fast forwarded the part that I need 😭, how do I remove the side panels?
Flip it up side down then pry the sides using a plastic prying tool. gravity will help.
Thanks for this walkthrough, I ended up using 2 layers of foam & it does sound a lot better
Sounds great! Even better than i expected! What foam/tape did you use? :)
I have the exact same keyboard and thinking about modify it, just like yours. Just worry a bit about assembling and disassembling the keyboard... thank you for inspiring me, really appreciate your good work
it certainly is very daunting, the key is to be patient. good luck!
I have blue switches, will thius help with my CRAZYY PING? I added some eva foam but the ping is still the same.
foam is probably the great way to go, I would suggest more foam if it can fit. I don't suggest lubing because it can cause the switch lose its 'clicky'-ness
What are the most silent switches that fit a keychron k1 low profile? Can it fit cherry silent?
K1 has 2 different versions that I know of, one uses proprietary gateron low profile switches (just the standard red brown blue), and the other has normal MX ones. So if you have the MX ones it's possible that there is a silent switch that can fit. that's all I know, sorry!
Thank you so much for posting this! I ended up getting the K1 soldered version because it was the only one in stock at the time. What kind of lube did you use? (Or can I use any kind from Amazon?) Not sure how confident I am opening the back for the tape/foam mod, but I'm glad I kept my original packaging!
Thanks for watching! I used Super Lube because it was cheaper than Krytox. I've seen a lot of people using different kinds of lube, but I haven't used anything else so I suggest you just search 'switch lube' and see the reviews!
just what i was looking to mod my keyboard.
It sounds to me like it didn't changed anything, did it?
try using headphones!
По сравнению со стоком, очень сильное отличие. Попробуй другой источник звука, лично я замечаю разницу в наушниках Senhaiser HD180 + Lenovo legion 5 2021 на 30% громкости...
Amazed that this one of the only videos for really upgrading a k1, from a creator with 38 (39 now) subscribers, and it's amazing. I'm glad I kept the foam padding from the case, that was such a convenient tip. Getting new keycaps today that should fit, they're OEM profile. For only $20, I figured why not try and go crazy with it. I may make a video if I decide to really mod and lube it, I have the V3 Gateron Blue switches so I'm interested to see the difference. Thanks!
WOW thank you for the kind words! good luck on your mod, and definitely share the vid if you did make one!
@@rahmaniastrid I did not have success replacing the keycaps as the middle plastic stem on the K1 V1-4 is about 1mm smaller in diameter than standard cherry profile. After a very stupid decision I made using a drill, it stopped working completely. I realized that the price of modding it along with the time to fix it would've been a big hassle, compared to buying a gently used K8. No more soldering worries at least for this. I'm thinking of reusing the K1's PCB and 3d print a new case and add knobs in the mix somehow haha! I think it'd be a perfect project to potentially get some use out of it instead of just trashing it.
Can you show how to remove the switches? I'm trying to remove mine but it's so hard, I'm able to lift them slightly but its harder to pull completely.
these are soldered switches so you have to desolder it I'm afraid. are you using the same keyboard? if so please don't pull on them without desoldering first and it can cause damage to your board
Amazing !
thank you!
I also have a K1V4, love your lube+tape+foam sound. can you link where I can get the foam? and are the tape just electrical tape?
the foam is just the one you get from the box, if there isn't one then you can search "eva foam" on amazon or other sites you use. and yep the tape is just electrical, another tape that is popular to use is masking tape. happy modding!
Love the sound after modded. ❤️
thank you!
Hard to tell when the audio is only on the left ear for the typing test :)
oh wait it is? I never watched when it was already uploaded with earphones. thanks for letting me know!
real
Dude, thank you. I followed the way you modded. The button for bluetooth or cable was annoying to put back haha. In the end, I couldn't be bothered with being neat thus the foam and tape be looking jank on mine. Just hoping that the foam doesn't heat up and burn...🤞
haha yeah those toggles were a nightmare. here is to hoping mine won't burn as well!
Thank you for good guide, Maybe I try this someday :)
thanks for watching, let me know how it goes!
