I’m currently in the process of building and filming my build and it’s made me appreciate how much time and effort each one of these videos takes. Thanks for everything you’ve taught me and continue with the great videos! :)
I have seen several hot swap keyboard mods, and this is my first time seeing someone do the soldering! It was super cool to watch, thank you for showing your process
I learned something here. Only solder one pin of the switch then fix the alignment while reflowing the solder. Do this for all the switches leaving the other pin of the switch unsoldered. Once all switches are permanently in place, solder the rest of the pins in one go. Smart.
I just ordered the horizon color variant of this keyboard for 43€ on amazon. That's about half the MSRP. I couldn't believe it. Can't wait to get it tomorrow and mod it :D
@@michaelnakakubo6791 I’m about to build a board and I never knew that. I was planning to solder the corners first, but didn’t consider the “tightening”.
Dieses Video hat mich sehr inspiriert!Ich habe die gleiche Schlüsselkappe und Schalter im Video im offiziellen Amazon-Laden in Akko gekauft!Ich kann es nicht weglegen, raub mich nicht aus!
I know you can’t see the pink switches once the keys are on, but they’re still really pretty💕 pink is my favorite color. another great video :3ildcat☺️
Oh, the leds. You 're the best. By the way, next time, to show the leds, imo, show it in the dark. Everybody use the keyboard in the night, with low light. The keycaps we have most here is translucent for the rgb, but this akko doesn´t have this and i didn't saw any review on youtube that show rgb with no translucent keycaps.
Hi, loved the video! The vibe is great! I was wondering what size of LED did you use? I am looking to try and make it also but don't know which size to buy. Is it the regular 3mm LED?
could you please make a quick tutorial or showing of how you could "straighten" the stabilizers' wire in a future video or if there any other ways to do it without a syringe
Awesome video. Just wondering, before soldering the LEDs, you fill up 2 holes per switch (not where the LED legs go) what are these? Why is this required?
I really feel stupid putting this out there, but I tried making my own mechanical keyboard build today, my first ever build. Things were going okay, I bought a hotswappable keyboard, took out the switches, disassembled them all, and then proceeded to lube through a tutorial of Taeha, but about ten switches in, I noticed that when I put the switch back together, it sort of just... didn't work. When I pressed on the switch, it would just stay stuck down, so I disassembled it and looked at it, and the copper/gold plate (the little plate in the back of the switch) seemed to be out of place.. I disregarded it and went ahead and lubed a few more switches, having no problems with the next seven or so, then the same exact thing happened and I just lost all motivation, so I gave up, put the switches back together to avoid any further damage. For reference, I was using gateron blacks - does anyone know what that plate in the switch is called and is there any tips so that I don't screw that up again? I felt so genuinely stupid, but as my first build, I don't want to be too harsh on myself over it.
If you put the stem in wrong direction, the contact (copper plate) would get damaged and it won't work. Not sure with this reason or not, but anyway I guess you somewhat damaged the contact parts.. sad.
Dunno if this was asked already but do you keep these keyboards for personal use/collection or sell them afterwards? Or are some of these commissioned builds? Asking coz that's a lot of keyboards lol
Hi Wildcat, I was wondering where did you get those mini led lights to solder to the keyboard? I have the same keyboard and kind of disappointed that it did not come with at least backlit considering the price we pay for. I have never solder in my life but willing to to give it a try since I've seen videos on how to do it. Thank you so much in advance
hey wildcat! little late to the party... I was wondering why you straighten the wires for the stabilizers, does it make the stabilizers better in anyway? do they sound better?
Yay a mod version for 3087! Love what you did to this! Just wondering though if it's possible to add Kailh Hotswaps to this? I actually bought this keyboard and just wondering if it's possible to do so for future reference. If not, what alternative is good in making this into hotswap.
I love how the sound of the stabilizers snapping in are in time with the beat of the music
I like how he is very conscious of that
Ah I'm so glad you desoldered this one! It sounds so great!!
Will you also make a mod version?
I swear these keyboards are making me want more keyboards, then realize I don't need them a lot. ): But I still want these keyboards
Agreed! As nice as they are, I’d take an NK65 over this any day!
it's time we appreciate our own keyboards better

i like stock more, too thocky imo
The spacebar sounds like when you place a block in Minecraft
Havent got to that part yet🥔

Great timing. Just got this keeb yesterday and needed the teardown video to start putting it in order. Thanks as always.
the modding video is finally here! love the uploads! :D
This is like my ASMR I've lost track of time completely while watching these videos. Also, the videos are edited so well!!!
I'm a simple man... I see a new wildcat upload I click
Gotta love the way these videos are edited
The difference is like day & night wow!!! Nice job! I admire your patience :) Btw I can see that you typing speed in English got a lot faster. :3
same how does he lube all those without going insane ;-;
Your videos are so entraining, you are the reason why I started my interest in Mk.
I been looking forward to this ever since I got my 3087 World Tour

hello how do i turn on the back light because I cant trun on mine
best part of the vid is your old iPhone tbh :D thats a throwback fs
lol i was patiently waiting for this video. now i can do this to my 3087
The song is a remix of the mic I normally listen to to go to bed! I’m glad someone has the same taste as me :)
I did everything shown in this video, keyboard sounds great now.
However I spent about 8 hours in total doing this project.
Can'f dismiss the synced stabs with music
Your technique in soldering switches is superb! Solder 1 joint then squeeze+reflow then solder the other joint
Hey I noticed this as well. Is it some sort of a technique?
It is easier to tighten the switches this way, because you can't reflow both pins
@@michaelnakakubo6791 I’m about to build a board and I never knew that. I was planning to solder the corners first, but didn’t consider the “tightening”.
I have been waiting to see people mod the Akko keyboards for a long time.... TY
Great sounds after modding! Kudos!
this is actually my dream keyboard, u did a great job! wish i had it
my carpal tunnel is hurting when i see you typing so fast hahaha respect

Final video of the year PogChamp
Excuse me, What is the LED type did you use in this mod? (I have the exact keyboard and I want to add the LED) Thank you!
I think there is a stock version with white backlight + bluetooth and one without.
i love the lighting effects, it adds a touch of flare to the keyboard, is there anywhere specific you picked them up?
You should make an unedited video (of course I mean time wise I really like the music and the way you edit your screen on the typing sounds)
Oh, the leds. You 're the best. By the way, next time, to show the leds, imo, show it in the dark. Everybody use the keyboard in the night, with low light. The keycaps we have most here is translucent for the rgb, but this akko doesn´t have this and i didn't saw any review on youtube that show rgb with no translucent keycaps.
It was actually dark but my camera absorb the light very well. 11:30 here. It's way darker than you see actually.
love the editing 👍👍👍👍
Liked just for the intro. Time to finish the rest of the video :)
Evan lubed, these Akko's still sound loud, wow!
More thocc yes
Edit: can't wait for what's next!
Had this keyboard for a few years now, going to try swapping in some KAT keycaps soon. Hope they work nicely!
what tape did you use for the stabilizers? O:
Hello 👋 I love it when the keyboards are lubed it makes it sound so much better
At first I read the title as "axxo" and thought I had gone back in time like 10 years
Are the cats marching in front of a (holy) panda? Great video as usual! Happy new year!!🎆🎉✨🎈

HI, which kind of LEDs are you using, i want to apply some LEDs to my 3108, nice video btw. :)
I think he used led 1.8mm

Oh now I see that's how you make your keycaps even, mine is totally not even. Specially the spacebar, it makes a springy sound
those switches look pretty :>
Wow this is awesome. Is this the only way to change the switches on this guy? I just realized they're not hot swappable haha.
Awesome work though! :)
your videos are soo satisfying to watch and damn near perfext but when you bring out your fingerprint covered phone it makes me mad for no reason
Lol whenever I see him make an unboxing video for a new pre-built keyboard, I know that a modding video is coming soon
이 영상 보면서 밀착땜 배웠습니다
The last switch slider in sync too btw!
Yay another stress reliever thx wildcat :3
facts
열정킹!! 집가서 헤드셋으로 asmr부분 마저볼게요!
Bend the leads of the leds outwards so the don’t fall out instead of taping
That's one of worst way to solder the leds if you ever consider desolder them.
If you will never desolder, of course, that's better
@@3ildcat that is true
could you please make a quick tutorial or showing of how you could "straighten" the stabilizers' wire in a future video or if there any other ways to do it without a syringe
Maybe this part ruclips.net/video/B1TodVGvF2g/видео.html
you can use pliers, empty ballpoint pen cases anything else. It depends on what you have.
@@3ildcat thank you so much, this really helps! :D
The LEDs are quite bright and not shimmering, may I ask which one you have used?
Replying to this so I can find out as well haha
don't know exactly, just a random 2x3x4mm white one
Спасибо за контент!
I like the vids when you mod most
Just wondering, which keyboard/switch do you use for your intro? it sounds phenomenal.

i really like the sound of a clacky un-lubed keyboard, personally
somewhat the same for me too. I've heard so many switches lubed and I think I've gotten somewhat bored of them

i just realise how blunt ur solder is
How long did that take you to do? It's a soothing video. Thanks,
it probably took at least an hour because of the desoldering and lubing

Just wondering though if it's possible to add Kailh Hotswaps to this? I actually bought this keyboard and just wondering if it's possible to do so for future reference. If not, what alternative is good in making this into hotswap.
I don't think so cuz the PCB should be designed for the kailh sockets.
It would be great if AKKO releases the hot swappable version.
They have hot-swappable version now but it's so far in Chinese market for now. Maybe they will release that version in mid year.
are the lighting effects built-in with every akko keybord ? do you use a software ?
