For the tape mod please don't use ductape as it can harm the pcb, when doing the mod you should use masking tape/ painters tape. Besides that good job on the board!
this switch puller is well known for breaking the cheaper switches like the outemu ones. it happened to me as well i have both the same keyboard and switch puller
Iirc it's not the switch puller it's how you are pulling it because Outemu sockets are really tight, and if you pull slow, instead of fast, you are basically just ripping the socket out
How did you get around the RD extra bit they solder onto the PCB joints? I had to pop those out one by one to get my holy pandas on there. They’d be the outemu housings that wouldn’t support other switches. Wondering what I missed haha
try pulling straight up with a bit more force when removing the switches. If you try to slowly jiggle them out like that you're bound to break some housing.
Oy, do you sell one of these mods your doing or are you doing giveaways? I always wanted a modded keyboard, but I'm a bit to noob to do it myself, nor do I know about anyone around here that does it where I live
Hi I know I put this comment in late but I just wanted to know if you can make one for me??? I am a very new person to keyboards and for my setup I and getting a hyperx alloy origins core tkl and I want a keyboard for school and I love the redragon k552 but I really love the Akko cream blues so can you do a mod on that or at least a live tutorial on how to step by step please and thank you for your convenience😅
Hey man, just starting to build by first custom keyboard. Is it okay to lube the metal stabilizer rods with krytox or to you need to use the grease you mentioned?
hey sorry if this is a dumb question I'm new to the scene of modding keyboards and have this keyboard and like it just wanna make it better and more personalized for me my question is in the video you talk about clipping the stabilizers what exactly are you clipping off them?
@@v_crowbar creamy blues are a tactile 38g (don’t quote me on the 38g I think that’s what it was😂) and there decently loud for sure but they got a nice sound to them for sure
The other mods really help a lot especially the holee mod(for stabilizers) if you dont add a foam youll not get the thock you get in a good keyboard either and you need to lube your akko switches (factory lubbed is not the best)
I thought this guy had like 100k subs+ but then when I see their sub count it's only 300 subs! This guy is underrated lmao
Ur right
Same!
@@mrpenguin809 SAME
he has a 40k following on twitch
@@jstris oh ok
This man has done the impossible! Thanks for helping me choose parts tho as I am new to customer keybaords

What about electrical tape?
@@AspexFPS I've seen people use it but they put some painters tape on first then the electrical tape over it
@@LeBorkBork hm alr i might just do that then
Painters tape has no stick so go with masking tape
what about scotch tape?
Best one of these yet, and the little sneak peeks of new switches etc were cool.

Ok well ngl this was fun to watch! Keep em’ comin chief! ❤️
Will do!!
how are you not popular like your vids are high quality with good editing @@rutgertwillem5460
It sounds real good! 🙌🏻
Thanks, Adamski
🤟🤟😎
Good job with this keyboard. I love these keycaps, ordered them and now just checking how they look in real life. Thanks for the video
Man you deserve way more subs for the quality of this video loved it got yourself a new sub
It sounds like I wanna come on every keypress. Dang it! Beauty!
I originally the blue switch version of this, but I ended up getting some Akko CS Rose reds, and I’m hoping to put a rubber sheet in mine.
Are the AKKOs made by Oetemu? I was under the impression that only Oetemu's will fit.
@@Xyriumthey’re not made by the same company, but they use the same socket.
Loving the new colour scheme for the board
AJUK!
🤟🤟😎
yes!!!! i have been waiting 😂
'Ello there, Faxy
@@rutgertwillem5460 keyboard looks and sound real good holy shit balls
I've actually been thinking of getting this board and mod it a few months later. So this vid will definitely come handy.
go for it its so good for modding and budget friendly
Nice little step by step tutorial
0:38 original sound
6:45 mod sound
You are a fine god of man 👍🏾
Does the Akko pro switches specifically the v3 cream pro switches work on the k552
try to mod the gamezone evo1, it has a full hotswap socket, sound very good out of the box, the keycaps are great imo and its only 40 bucks
Wowwww, very nice Yogurt Villain
Ah what now?
Wow! This will help a lot with my keyboard!! Awesome video man.

I’d never do this but great vid bro a lot of work you deserve more subs
*Love the hair.*
I don't appreciate your sarcasm
@@rutgertwillem5460 there’s none. I like how you pulled it back!!! Sheeeeesh!
I thought he had over 100k subs because of the quality of this video, he so underrated! Only 400 subs?! He deserves way more
Roy modded my keyboard, now I wanna buy it 😂🤩

Mans uses touch typing on the left hand and hunt-and-peck on the right hand
gahdamn it sounds good than i expected
When i watched this video it looked like he has thousands of subs like whatttt only 700?
what's that mousepad
Good Job Bro. Keep Up!
Those caps are pretty good
The tape is painters tape at home depot
1:06 i wouldnt say its bad, its better than my current 😭
That pinky finger though!

Really nice video I really like it I’m wondering what kind of music is that that you play with it I really like it
Streambeats by Harris Heller
I'll try this mod. Waiting for the parts to be delivered.
did it worked ? How does it sound like ?
Tried this and did the tape mod and the whole thing fell apart after one day really need some help 😭
nice vid man
you're so good!
You can use Akko cs switches
pe foam is godly
do the switches you added came pre lubed or u had to lube it separately?
woah sounds good
2 yt videos one above the other with same title lol
Can you link where you got the black deskmat?
I just bought these switches for the same board. But the switches are tight, did you have any fitment issues?
pull the switches hard at once and they wil come out easier
just wondering change keycap the rgb lights cannot pass thru the letters???
If they are not transparent, yes they can't pass through and you will get only the neon underneath.
is it possible to buy this mod k552 like its already built?

Same question
Ask aaaah!!! Does this keyboard fit the XDA type keycaps or only the OEM ones???
both will work fine i believe
It doesn't matter what keycap profile you use, chief
The spacebar is still a little rattle. Nit much, or it might just be a mic thing
You play tarkov with new keyboard lol
are any plate mount stabs compatible with this
Rutgert Willem from hogwartz hows it going
didn't know andrew garfield gained a little weight and started customizing keyboards.
hey sorry if this is a dumb question I'm new to the scene of modding keyboards and have this keyboard and like it just wanna make it better and more personalized for me my question is in the video you talk about clipping the stabilizers what exactly are you clipping off them?
You are just clipping off a useless tiny piece of plastic off the stabilizer to make it sound just that much better.
@@v_crowbar ended up buying pre clipped got the build done about a month and a half ago and am loving it for sure I used cream blue switches tho
@@Mysticasbruh Are the Creamy blue switches loud compared to normal outemu or mx blue switches?
@@v_crowbar creamy blues are a tactile 38g (don’t quote me on the 38g I think that’s what it was😂) and there decently loud for sure but they got a nice sound to them for sure
What's Microphone do you use?
If i do none of this and just switch switches with akko switches. Will it still work?

Wasabi
your spacebar is upside down.
I'm sophisticated. Please stop bullying me
Hmmmmm i was looking at this board.....what sort of costings on this?
Probably around £110
what are some good linear cheap switches for this keyb?
I don't know if you figured this out yet but Akko makes really good cheap switches
ive modded my redragon k552 a few weeks ago, and im thinking to change my outemu switches with different tactile switches
im wondering what kind of sound this keyboard made. creamy?
Me to
This looks amazing and I don't give af about keyboards.
Is this really hotswapable? I just ask and they said its not hot swapable
Hot swapable for akko outemu and ktt switches
is the k552 really hot swappable?!
It sure is
@@rutgertwillem5460 no way
If that is then I’m getting one so I can upgrade it to the max
Keyboard HYPU!
No way you type like this
Bro your underaged af amazing mod
First😅
So zzz
holee mod is skill issues
i came here bc youtube recomended this but it gives me anxiety watching him type like that
