Luankan Peripherals Chapter 68: The best choice for a silent keyboard—TTC Ice Quiet Axis V2 experience

Some time ago, I bought the first Gasket structure mechanical keyboard - the upstart GM780. After some experience, I feel that the mute effect of this Gasket structure keyboard is really good. It coincides with TTC recently released the mute axis V2, so it was born. The idea of ​​​​replacing this keyboard with Ice Quiet Axis V2 to reduce the sound to a minimum. Just do it, 80 TTC ice static axis V2 arrangements!

The appearance of Ice Static Axis V2 is worthy of its name. The transparent plastic body of the Axis is crystal clear like small ice cubes. It still looks cool in this hot summer. Different from the yellow-brown shrapnel and spring used in the general shaft body, the Bingjing shaft V2 uses silver shrapnel and spring, which makes the overall tone of the shaft body uniform and unobtrusive, and the visual presentation effect tends to be consistent.

Through dismantling, it can be seen that the shaft core of the ice static shaft V2 continues to use the sound-absorbing double insurance structure design and the double-side wall dust-proof patented structure. Segmented independent sound reduction and noise reduction, the mute effect is obvious; the latter allows the shaft core to still fit the shaft cover when it is pressed down, which effectively solves the problem of dust entering the shaft body and improves the stability of the shaft core.

Concentrating mirror solution, the end of the concentrating mirror is slightly raised and installed to be closer to the LED patch light, gathering and converging the LED light source. At the moment when transparent kits and transparent keycaps are popular, it is undoubtedly a wise choice to enhance the overall lighting perception of the keyboard by enhancing the brightness of the light passing through the shaft body and the scattering effect.

The triggered shrapnel structure is silver-plated, and the contacts of the shrapnel are gold-plated. The gold contacts are very obvious in the silver-white luster. This is the process commonly known as "wearing gold and wearing silver". The long spring design is exactly the same as the gold powder switch, and it is about one-third longer than the spring of the ordinary red switch. You can clearly see the traces of grease on the factory-run switch.

The parameters of the ice static axis V2 are as follows: 39g trigger pressure, 3.5mm total stroke, 2.0mm trigger stroke, and 50 million trigger life. From the specific parameters, we can know that the ice static axis V2 is a linear mute with light pressure and short stroke. shaft. If you are looking for a reference object for benchmarking, the V2 parameters of the ice static axis and the parameters of your own gold powder axis are close, which can be roughly regarded as the silent version of the gold powder axis, but the total stroke is slightly shorter and the bottom will be faster.

相比较于之前的冰静轴，冰静轴V2在冰静轴的基础上主要做了三大升级：加持“穿金戴银”工艺，对导电端子和弹簧进行镀银，提高轴体抗氧化和耐用性；再就是增加聚光镜模块，提高轴体导光表现；最后就是将轴芯替换为更加耐磨的新型透明材料。这一系列的升级优化了前作的一些不足，让冰静轴V2在外观、耐久性、灯光表现上有了显著的提升。

Compared with the TTC ice static axis V2 of the condenser solution and the TTC fast silver axis of the lens solution, the effect of the condenser focusing and converging the light source is quite obvious - under the same LED light source, the brightness of the light projected by the condenser is far better than that of the lens structure, which can be regarded as the current The strongest light guide solution I have ever seen.

Install the shafts one by one on the upstart GM780, turn on the white light of GM780, the almost transparent shaft core and shaft cover add the addition of the condenser to the lighting effect, the crystal clear feeling of TTC ice static shaft V2 becomes more and more obvious , the word transparent is vividly displayed.

Ice Static Axis V2 is not only crystal clear under white light, but its transparent appearance can well display the RGB lighting of the keyboard. It is perfect for matching with the current transparent kit and transparent keycaps.

In terms of feel, the TTC Ice Static Switch V2 is smooth and gentle to press, the rebound is strong with the hand, and there is no lag when pressing to the bottom. The specific hand feeling presentation, as mentioned above, is not far from the feel of the TTC gold powder switch, or even quite similar. The sound-absorbing double insurance structure design will not make a sound when the shaft touches the bottom. With the blessing of the Gasket structure, it basically achieves the experience of integrating into the environment sound.

With the gradual out of the circle of mechanical keyboards and the improvement of user demand, there are many kinds of silent switches on the market recently, but to achieve the mute effect while ensuring that the switch feels smooth and smooth, maybe TTC’s silent switch series is the best. TTC has integrated some of the latest technical optimizations on the Bingjing axis V2, which has both hand feeling and mute performance, and also added a certain "light pollution" attribute. Whether you are an RGB lover or have a relatively strong mute demand for the keyboard, TTC Bingjing Axis V2 is the best choice for your keyboard!
