How to hot-swap any switch into the Phantom • Upgrading and Customiz...
final vid with this keyboard coming soon....
Your enthusiasm is palpable. Very energetic and love the way you geeking over the keyboard.
Haha thanks man I appreciate it😂
I just got my shroud too and it is so much of a physical difference and it looks way better (it also changes the caps lock and windows lock indicator to a little circle)
I reccomended you try adding packing foam do the dampen the reverb of the case. I have lubed outemu red and this in combination it gets rid of pinging
love the enthusiasm, the shroud gives the phantom a sick retro look
Imagine some apex legends weapon skin on it or anime arts.
POV: making the elite version but cheaper and not wireless 💀
I just watched ur vid on modding it with gateron yellows and I did the same today! I spray lubed them and added the shroud in white and got all white razer pbt keycaps!! I’m super happy and I technically made a custom keyboard!
Yo that’s awesome! I’d love to see a photo of it
Word of advice: don't try spray lubing again, you can get lube over the contacts and then you'll have issues registering keypresses
@@wsketchy only if you don’t know how to do it.
I just shelved out my Techware Phantom TKL after 4 years of good service. Planned to retire it but decided to just give it to my gf. I didn't know these upgrades like switch replacement and shroud but thank God I saw your vids. I love your enthusiasm with tecware products, Phantom keybs really was so so so ahead of its time. Best keyboard I've ever bought.
I just got the Tecware Phantom i plan on making it into a custom keyboard soon
when you're Mega Excited
hey man, i recommend that you mod your phantom 88 to have USB-C, i did it and it was really worth it since i can use custom usb-c cables!
it involves usb-c breakout boards which are like £5 for 5 of them, and a bit of soldering.
Where did you get the dolch keycaps from the tkl size?
just got this keyboard yesterday and im loving it by itself, now you got me wanting to buy more shit for it lol
Nice😂
The shroud is selling for an absurd price right now. it is selling for 1 dollar + free shipping, which is just insane!
you know what, I think you just sold me on the shroud
AHHHH cant wait to get my shroud and keycapsss
LETS GOO
what happened to the rgb does it not work with the gateron switches
Only in the dark
@@fresharmo so the rgb does work right because i use hyperx pudding keycaps which guve alot of light and my room isnt always dark bc of my led lights but idk if it will work could it
is the caps lock light bright with the shroud on?
Yes
My alpaca linears don't fit into the keyboard. please help me i'm so disapointed
When I click on the link it’s just the 104 key shroud?
My daughter have the sampe keyboard, it has 1 cons I dont like: No removable USB Type-C.
I have a Spectre Pro and Phantom L (Low Profile), they have a removable USB Type-C Port, so i don't have to swap the cable if change to another keyboard.
I wish Tecware release a new keyboard TKL like a Phantom Elite (hotswap) with a removable USB Type-C Port, and some new set 2-3 tone color of PBT keycaps.
I'm probably buying this keyboard. I wishlisted it alongside the shroud and two sets of keycaps, the white ones and the black and gray ones, for combination. Can't wait!
I'll guide myself with your video (I'm a noob to this mechanical keyboard thing XD).
By the way, your keyboard with those keycaps looks like a Keychron. 👌
Awesome! Send me a pic of it once it’s done I’d love to see it
@@fresharmo Definitely, dude!
Damn awesome keyboard! I finally got it!
Bundled it with the shroud and white/gray keycaps... Couldn't be happier!!!
Thanks for making the video, by the way. This is what got me convinced!
Congrats bro! Can you send me a pic on insta or discord? I’ve never seen a white phantom build yet
@@fresharmo yeah bro, I'll follow on Instagram and send you a pic.
I’m unable to buy the key caps and the shroud here in Australia, I’m sad. Those key caps look nice
BAHYHAHQHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAAAHHAHAHAAAYAAYHSHSHAHAAH IMAGINE LMAO SKILL ISSUE 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Awesome...I watching you
I can’t seem to find the gray + black keycap set on Amazon, can you please reply with a link if you find one?
Here it is! www.amazon.com/YMDK-Through-Profile-Mechanical-Keyboard/dp/B07FNT5KV2/ref=sxts_sxwds-bia-wc-drs-ajax1_0?crid=3LZ8NEO7YL0N3&cv_ct_cx=dolch+keycaps&dchild=1&keywords=dolch+keycaps&pd_rd_i=B07FNT5KV2&pd_rd_r=a78b9736-cda0-4aca-91bf-33ba168806f1&pd_rd_w=0oCLg&pd_rd_wg=K8XbE&pf_rd_p=037ca9fd-790e-4a16-836b-14da89aed20e&pf_rd_r=RKFNNBSMXMNBTJE3VNQS&psc=1&qid=1601265159&s=electronics&sprefix=dolch+keycaps%2Celectronics%2C216&sr=1-1-25b07e09-600a-4f0d-816e-b06387f8bcf1#
Gateron switch is that real work with OUTEMU switch?
Edit: same i didn't fan with floating key🤣🤣
Pls do more videos like this. Your videos are so good
would the shroud fit the phantom L?
How did you get the LEDs to shine through those Gateron switches? Since the ones you have didn’t seem to have that shaft for the SMD to shine through.
yeah, same question. I've also got that keyboard, it's very nice but I hate the switches (I've got brown), wanted to swap them for Gateron Yellows like you did but the LED is the question
The LEDs are barely visible during the day but at night you can see them.
$1.00 from amazon right now
I bought the Grey and white keycap set do they fit outemu switches?
Yep
@@fresharmo I put these on and I’m amazed
Nicee
@@fresharmo Yo my space bar is rattling should I put O rings on it over get dielectric grease?(lube for keyboards 🤣)
@@diurnalrl7781 yea I would just lube it.
i bought milky switches they have two extra pins do i clip them off with pliers? the plastic pins
Looks like a custom keyboard
Can you mix the techware keycaps with the red k9 you used in the previous video to see how the match?
bro is using his thumb to press z
Tecware Elite horror story: They're not USB-C! 🤣
In your video the stabilizer sound so good. Is it stock stabilizer or did you put some lube? If it stock then I'm going to buy it right now.
yo, does the rgb shine through the yellows or will i lose rgb if i i get them?
Yea you’re mostly losing it
The problem with this keyboard is mine got rust by just using for 3 months without spilling any kind of liquid on my keyboard :(
woa thats weird
I am planning on buying a white shroud and white, grey and red keycaps. So excited. The video makes me look forward to buy it.
Sickk
your next mod should make it have a detachable cord, just a suggestion though otherwise it's an endgame keyboard.
whats the major difference between the stock keycaps and the new keycaps set? except the colour
No difference really but they feel a bit thicker to me and I believe the legend is different.
i've been unable to find the black and grey option on amazon. which keycap option did you choose?
No it’s just out of stock at the moment
Got the shroud as well and it's heaven sent!! the idea wasn't new but it is available for the Tecware and that's all that matters
Did you take Dolch keycaps that you used in the previous video off? Why stop using it?
I still have them they’re on my 60%
Is the ping/ringing sound gone now you've put the gateron yellows in?
Yep
Wonder how much room is in the board for foam / dampening and how much difference that makes to acoustics.
I tried foaming it. About half an inch from the bottom cannot be foamed, and an inch at the top too. You can still foam the alphanumeric area though. The result is a fuller sound and less ping, which is nice. I’d recommend doing it
Does the shroud in anyway changed the sound of the keyboard?
Na it’s just cosmetics
You could probably swap between the venus and tecware to see what you like more. What I like to do is daily drive a tkl, then use 60% for gaming
Thanks for the recommendation! Do you keep both plugged in and on your desk?
@@fresharmo In my case, I use the same cable. So no, but for you since the tecware doesnt have a detachable cable, you can slide the one not in use under the monitor
very good but u didn’t show it with the rgb on was disappointing but anyways good vid
Thx! The RGB was actually on the whole time but you can only see it in the dark lol.
The RGB doesn’t shine well through the Gat yellows
Cool bruh
Very nice review
like ur setup its so clean haha
Appreciate it! Might do a setup tour vid if enough people are interested lol.
hey! compared to the dolch keycaps and the tecware pbt? which one is better?
The dolch keycaps are better quality imo. But if you care for rgb go with the tecware ones
@@fresharmo hey, just ordered this dolch keycaps and a gateron brown switches and waiting for it to be received. Is it possible if you can make a video focused on how you crimp the pin? I watch your other video where you just crimp the pin using the pliers, not sure if all of the pin should be crimped or just a portion of the pin.
I’ll get on it!
@@fresharmo Thank you so much! This will help a lot of user trying to fit a gateron switch on outemu sockets.
fn gameplay
Yezzir
what is ur pc spec?
Ryzen 5 3600 with a 1660 Super. But I’m trying to upgrade to a 3060 ti if I can find one for retail.
@@fresharmo i see
