Regarding the "Gasket structure" in the customized mechanical keyboard circle, it was relatively small a few years ago! In the past two years, it has been slowly accepted by more users! Recently, I bought a customized mechanical keyboard with Gasket structure: Dareu A87pro.



Let's briefly introduce the term "Gasket structure".



Gasket structure, the interior of the keyboard is not fixed by metal such as traditional screws, but is fixed by rubber and the precise design of the upper and lower shells. And the Dareu A87pro that I started with added a layer of 3.5mm thick silicone pad inside, so that the feel is more uniform and comfortable, and the sound of typing on the keyboard has a better noise reduction effect!



In terms of color matching, there are currently two colors of white peach powder and evening cloud gray to choose from. White peach powder is mainly black and white, while Muyun gray is mainly blue and white.



As a girl, I personally prefer blue and white collocation, which looks more clean and simple! So I chose Twilight Gray.




In addition to the blue and white color scheme, there are also sporadic orange red embellishments. Among the accessories, seven function buttons of other color schemes are presented as gifts, in order to meet the color needs of consumers.



The keyboard adopts 80% arrangement, 87 key layout, cancels the numeric keypad on the right side, the keyboard as a whole is more compact, and also meets the basic needs of daily code words!



The overall size of the keyboard is 364*136*41mm, and the total weight is 950g. Relatively speaking, it is relatively heavy, but because of the wired connection, it is not necessary to move the keyboard frequently.



The connection method is a wired Type-C interface single-mode connection, which adopts the form of separation of keys and wires. The back of the keyboard is equipped with cable management slots in three directions, which is convenient for the adjustment of data cables in different desktop environments.




The four corners of the back of the keyboard are also equipped with non-slip pads, and the soles of the feet adopt the traditional two-stage design.



In terms of keyboard material, a harder high-purity PBT two-color keycap is used. The surface of the keycap is very delicate and comfortable to the touch, and it is not easy to slip.



The height of the keycap adopts the original OEM height, which conforms to the ergonomic design, and you will not feel tired even if you code for a long time.



In terms of characters, the color is still orange, and the closed font looks very clean and elegant with white keycaps!


In addition to the "Gasket structure" that is the characteristic of this keyboard, its shaft body is also very unique.



The keyboard switch body adopts the sky switch V3, which is the first time for me to experience it personally. The feel is very close to the Cherry red switch, straight up and down, and the feel is very smooth!



As for the large key, a brand-new satellite switch after special adjustment is adopted, which is more stable than the traditional satellite switch, and the feel is also greatly improved!



As a customized mechanical keyboard, it is necessary to support hot swapping! You can DIY other mechanical axes according to your own needs.




This mechanical keyboard also has RGB full-color backlight effect!




The RGB switch can be adjusted through the light adjustment button on the left side of the keyboard, and the brightness, color and frequency of the light can also be adjusted through the FN combination button.



It is the first time to experience the sky axis V3, and the feel is still very comfortable! Even if you code at night, the sound is very soft and will not affect your sleeping baby! The "Gasket structure" makes the keyboard feel more even when typing, and you won't feel any discomfort after using the keyboard for a long time!


Generally speaking, the current price-performance ratio of 499 for this single-mode Daryou A87pro customized mechanical keyboard is still good! Interested friends, you can buy it and try it out!

Recently, I have nothing to do. When I was looking at the video, I accidentally saw the information about the customized keyboard, and then it got out of hand.
, It seems that after looking at it, it is getting better and better, and it also coincides with ample time for the National Day, so I finally decided to try the water by myself.


After shopping at Station B for almost half a month, the final assembly plan was finalized:


Kit: dk67pro; switch: gray wood switch v3; keycap: Shimmer xda, the overall price is quite acceptable, after all, it is the first time for Xiaobai to start with the entry model.


There are several reasons for choosing the above assembly plan: 1. The price is relatively moderate. The three-mode hot-swappable kit, music rhythm RGB, and volume knob can meet my needs in terms of function and appearance. The evaluation of Ashwood V3 is also quite good. The sound after the completion of the masters is also quite good; 2. There are also a lot of video resources on the b station. It is easier for inexperienced Xiaobai to toss, and it is easy to find solutions when encountering problems.


Let's show the finished assembly first.


complete form


It doesn't look like it's stamped after the assembly is complete.


After watching a lot of videos at station b, the modification of this kit is mainly optimized around these few contents: the bottom cotton filling, the pad under the shaft, the satellite shaft, and the battery increase are adjusted. For my personal use, the frequency of RGB use is not high, and the battery should be barely enough. For the satellite axis adjustment, I watched a few videos and didn't know much about the operation method. I start with the easy-to-handle underfill and under-shaft pads.


Underfill


The dk67pro comes with a piece of black bottom cotton, which is relatively thin and the effect is relatively poor. When I was picking up the courier, I asked the boss for some mats for the package. The boss found me 3 different thicknesses, and only one was roughly It is 3-4mm that can be used, cut it out and put it on the bottom case of the keyboard.



Afterwards, you can just spread the black mat that comes with it. When you press it for the first time, because the courier mat is still relatively swollen, it is not easy to press it. You need to align the switch at the bottom of the keyboard, and then press it hard
Press on and tighten the screws.


After that, it is to paste the upper and lower pads on the PCB board. I bought the one that needs to be attached one by one. The material is said to be poron, but it is not very clear what it is actually. The price is relatively cheap, but it is time-consuming. In practice, I think it is relatively simple. I don’t think it is difficult to post. It took me almost half an hour to post it.
. After pasting, it is assembled.




I read the introductions of many big guys later, the effect of the 8x ixpe under the shaft is better, but I have already bought it, so I will use this.


Finally, two layers of masking paper were pasted on the back of the PCB. I probably tried it. There is still a big difference in the typing sound between pasted and unpasted. If it is not a very humid area, I think I can still try it.
。


This is the first time I tried to assemble the keyboard by myself. The process is quite interesting. There must be a big gap between the quality of the assembled keyboard and some mature mass-produced keyboards or the generation of big guys, but I think it is a customer The greatest joy of customizing the keyboard is the process of assembling the keyboard
。


For this kit, I personally feel that dk67pro is still very good as an entry-level customized kit. I have never used a keyboard worth more than 150 yuan, and I feel that the texture is very good.
. The shaft ash wood v3 is already very good for getting started. The whole assembly process can basically experience the general process of a customized keyboard, and the price is relatively low, so it won’t be very uncomfortable if a miracle happens.
. If you want to experience the fun of assembling the keyboard by yourself, I think such a combination is quite good.


Finally, attach a typing performance.


typing sound

The current keyboard has become affordable, and with the manufacturer's roll, you can buy a good mechanical keyboard for a few hundred dollars. No matter what shape or hardware solution, you can use it for basic input. The key is whether it can meet your needs. Special needs.




The KU102 just released by Lulian can be regarded as one of the representatives of the fine design of the keyboard. There is no standard product for the compact short switch with a price of less than 300 yuan. This article will show you whether this keyboard is suitable for you. I think it is helpful. Welcome to follow, like and collect Sanlianha.



Before officially opening the box, let me briefly introduce the special features and adaptation environment of this keyboard.


Tucao: I don’t understand what the name KU102 is based on. The normal numbers correspond to the columns, and this keyboard is not 102 keys. . . .


1️⃣
special arrangement


Lulian KU102 is an 80% compact keyboard with 89 keys. Compared with the traditional 87-key layout, the key spacing is more compact. Shorter and shorter.




Compared with the traditional 87-key arrangement, the two extra keys on the Greenlink KU102 are screenshot and emoticon keys. The screenshot key is different from the PrtSc key. It calls the screenshot tool instead of grabbing the global screen, which is quite suitable for chat parties. practical.




In addition, KU102 has an independent Mac mode switching switch, and at the same time, it comes with supplementary keycaps for Mac, which is more conscientious.



2️⃣
custom shaft


Lulian KU102 officially announced that it uses the Goto LP short shaft. After searching, I couldn’t find the specific parameter information of this shaft. In theory, it is a customized version of Goto’s circlip mechanical shaft, because it is not consistent with the official data. superior.




The LP shaft body used by Lulian is not a series, only one type is available, although the official did not say specifically, according to the actual measurement, it is a large paragraph type of tea shaft, but the total stroke is lengthened to 3.5mm, and the trigger pressure is heavy. The actual measurement should still be 50g, the trigger stroke is still 1.2mm, and the second half stroke is relatively long.




3️⃣
Applicable scene



To sum up, Greenlink KU102 is suitable for two scenarios:


The first is the mobile office environment, as you can see from the picture below, the length is about the same as the MBP, and the thickness is not bad, it does not take up space in the bag, it supports wireless connection and prevents the problem of wire entanglement, users who often need to work with a laptop convenient.


The second is chatting and typing madness. The key travel of the short switch is much shorter than that of the conventional MX switch, which can reduce the fatigue caused by long-term continuous input. At the same time, the extra screenshot keys and expression keys are also more practical.



As a dual-mode keyboard with a price within 300 yuan, the packaging of Lulian KU102 is quite unique, and the outsourcing material and structural strength are quite high, which can prevent the damage caused by transportation.




Accessories include keyboard body*1, liquid silicone material Type-C cable*1, cap puller*1 and six Mac supplementary keycaps, which Apple users can replace by themselves.




The overall color scheme of the keyboard adopts a more attractive blue-gray color scheme. The keycaps of special keys are distinguished by dark blue and white, and there is a more eye-catching status indicator light in the upper left corner.




As a compact low-axis keyboard, Lulian KU102 has a smaller design, with a length, width and height of 323.1*116.7*mm. You can see the comparison with the Macbook in the figure below.




In terms of ergonomics, the KU102 does not use an independent adjustable foot support, but a 6° pad design for the top of the bottom case, and cooperates with the thin keycaps of the above-mentioned OEMs to ensure portability and improve the Entering comfort.




In addition to the main keypad, Greenlink KU102 has a physical switch on the top, which can be turned on by toggling the selection system in the wireless state. The built-in battery capacity is not large, only 1800 mAh. 150 hours theoretical battery life.




In addition to supporting Windows and Mac systems, Linux and Android are also free to use. There is a Type-C port on the side of the switch for direct connection + charging. There is no problem with my own aviation plug-in test.




The PCB of Lulian KU102 has a patch lamp design. Currently, only monochromatic white light is available, which is definitely enough for nighttime use.




Since the shading powder is relatively thick, the actual contact feeling of this set of keycaps is relatively smooth, and it is not dazzling when used. I personally like this type of keycaps, but it is a bit greasy after using it. I can only say that there are gains and losses. Now The keycaps are also cheap, so it’s not a big problem to buy a set for yourself.




In addition to the fixed function keys on the right, press and hold Fn + fixed keys to adjust the brightness of the display, switch software windows and other functions. There are graphical labels on the keycaps, and you can know the corresponding functions of the combination keys without reading the manual.




As mentioned above on the switch body, the high-specification LP switch body is used, and the type is a tea switch with a larger trigger weight. What is more surprising is that the satellite switch is used at this price, and the feel is slightly larger than some. The low-axis keyboard with a balance bar is too comfortable.




I need to remind everyone that the LP switch body uses a dust-proof cross-axis. When changing the keycaps, it is best to ask the customer service whether it is compatible, otherwise there may be embarrassment of bursting chrysanthemums.



Choosing the high-tech solution means a good feel and cost-effectiveness, but it is inevitable that the ancestral spring sound, both the main key and the large key, there is a live video below, friends who are more concerned about the quiet environment consider it for themselves.



Tested the connection with the Macbook, long press the Fn+Q key to search for the notebook, click on the connection and follow the system prompts to enter the identification to complete the pairing, the stability is still good, the mobile keyboard within five square meters did not appear to be disconnected.



The actual measurement of the screenshot key can take effect correctly, and in the browser state, it triggers to save the webpage.



Then test the function of the Fn key combination, and the functions of mute, volume adjustment and song switching are also correct and effective, and Apple users can start with peace of mind.



A keyboard review without a live record is incomplete, here is a real shot for your reference.




List the relevant equipment, if you are interested, you can take a look.


1️⃣
Lulian KU102 dual-mode mechanical keyboard


Introduction: This article is an evaluation product, so I won't repeat it.



2️⃣
Lvlian Lightning π fast charging head


Introduction: Notebook users are advised to bring a Lightning π Kuai at hand, which is nearly a quarter smaller than the 140W head sold by Apple, and it has folding pins, which is easy to put in the bag, does not take up space and does not scratch items. The actual measurement charges MacbookPro and Redmi K20Pro at the same time (double C), and the phone is almost fully charged in less than 10 minutes, and it is only slightly warm to the touch.



3️⃣
Lvlian MU001 dual-mode mouse


Introduction: If you choose a low-axis keyboard, you must like thinner peripherals. You can consider the MU001 currently on sale in Greenlink. The size is 109*62*30mm, which is not stressful to put in the bag. It also supports Bluetooth and 2.4G connections. , The theoretical battery life of a single AA battery can last for 12 months, which is very good for office use.



Summarize for friends who have pulled to the end:


Environmental adaptation, Greenlink KU102 is an 89-key compact low-axis keyboard with 80% configuration. There is currently no competing product of the same type at the same price. It is more targeted and suitable for notebook users with mobile office needs. The screenshot key and expression key Also more creative.


For the hardware solution, the shaft body uses the high-tech LP custom-made short shaft (circlip structure), and the structure is a brown shaft with a large paragraph. Since the 3.5mm short thread is here, it can not only retain the trigger feeling of the paragraph, but also reduce the continuous input. Fatigue, the big key is the satellite axis.


The actual shortcomings, the biggest problem is the ancestral spring sound of Goto. In addition, there are no additional functions such as RGB lights and custom drivers. Considering the price of 300 yuan, you really can’t ask for too much.


Generally speaking, if you want to buy a low-priced short-axis keyboard, Lulian KU102 is a good choice.

I recently changed to MAC OS, and the previous mechanical keyboard can no longer adapt to the new system very well. Because the space of the computer desk is limited, I have always wanted to change to a wireless keyboard before, so that I can make room for the computer desk when writing, drawing, etc. on the computer desk. Combined with my own use, although the 108-key keyboard has greater advantages in input, such as more convenient when entering passwords, it is not a rigid requirement, so I considered the arrangement that can abandon some small keyboards. This can also save a mouse space.







I don't know much about these things at ordinary times. I am dazzled by the various shafts and brands, and the more I look at it, the more confused I become. In the end I found out that I just wanted a keyboard that would work with the keyboard I'm using now. It doesn't matter what the shaft feels like, I should choose according to the needs of my pocket. I just saw that Jingzao JZ750 has a discount in the past few days. After adding the Jingdou deduction, it only costs about 200. I checked the bank balance and it seemed to be good. I accepted it and placed an order.







After the express delivery, the shell was a little deformed, but as long as it does not affect the product itself, it will be fine. The deformation of the corners does not affect the weighing of the box.







Opening the box, there is only an instruction manual and a shaft installation manual, and some basic accessories. It is equipped with a screwdriver (I don’t know if it has been disassembled and there will be after-sales), a key shifter, a data cable and a 2.4G receiver. . The body of the keyboard is undamaged, with a thin layer of padding on the top and sides.












This is the first time I used a keyboard that can be shifted. I didn’t figure out which one is the longer one. I took the shifter to pull the keycap, and the shaft body was pulled out together. Let’s take a picture by the way. There is a layer of silicone pad under the body. The color of this Xuetian blue axis is like the color of the axis body of my original blue axis. The sound of the original green switch is a bit like the sound of pressing the light switch at home, but the sound of this switch is a bit like the sound of gently tapping the table with your fingers, which is softer and duller than the original sound. Not as noisy as the original keyboard. Compared with the previous keyboard, the keycap is also more textured, and the light can reflect the shadow on the side.












The keyboard uses a three-mode connection and has a 2.4G receiver, but the keyboard itself does not have a 2.4G storage compartment, and it has been stored together with the tools. Anyway, it is connected with Bluetooth, and a USB port can be given to the computer. The Bluetooth connection is currently used to code words, and some simple operations do not feel the delay. The knob is very fragrant, and it is very convenient to adjust the volume and light. F3 and F4 multiple desktop shortcuts can be perfectly adapted to MAC OS, but I feel that the volume adjustment corresponding to F10-F12 feels a bit repetitive, and it is just next to the knob. It would be better if it could be replaced with other shortcuts. The MAC logo is printed on the button, I think it would be better if it can be replaced.












In addition, there is no driver suitable for MAC OS, and the settings cannot be changed on the MAC. There are several modes of lighting by pressing it casually, and the keycap itself is not transparent. But it doesn't matter, I usually don't plan to drive it.

Since last year, domestic mechanical keyboards have reached a new peak. Three or four years ago, the ceiling of the mechanical keyboard was still the big F of more than 900 single-mode wired ABS keycap shells, but now, with the best switch body and the best structure, all plus, as long as more than 399 players dare to say you Too expensive to sell, not enough sincerity.


In fact, the price of rolling costs will never end, or in other words, this direction has now reached the end, but more users actually hope to have keyboards with excellent workmanship, appearance, feel, quality, and after-sales, not just keyboards. It is a simple stack of structure, shaft body and keycap. Recently, I received this new F75 from Hubatu, which really gave me a bright feeling.


The packaging box of this keyboard continues the consistent characteristics of a certain series of keyboards, that is, it is extremely long, but it has an outer packaging length close to 98 keyboards with 75% arrangement.



The reason lies in the rich accessories inside. Like the previous H98, the F75 provides a lot as always, and has played new tricks on the accessories. The finely molded dust cover, the aviation plug-in cable with the same color as the keyboard body, the height-increasing foot support, and the shaft puller. Most importantly, a cleaning tool box was also sent this time.



There is a large brush in the box, and a combination of small brushes, mini watering cans, and shaft pullers below. Especially the specific effect of this small brush... Actually, I don't quite understand it, I feel that it can stick fine dust.




Tiger Batu F75 has four colors launched together this time, and the one I have is Furong Rouge. The whole body is purple, and the keycap is a combination of deep pink and milky yellow.



There is still a small window in the upper right corner, which can display time, power, connection mode, etc., and can also be customized through software drivers.



Moreover, the design of the volume knob this time is full of texture. The upper part is a fixed plastic plating part, and the lower part is a metal infinite scroll wheel knob. The default function is to adjust the volume.



The power switch and C port are distributed on the left side, and the switching buttons for different modes are on the right side. The whole shape is very round. Sometimes I am very emotional, the entire Fude keyboard is really willing to spend money on the mold. In particular, one of the two molds of Hubatu is more complicated than the other, and the other is more refined than the other.



In particular, I want to say that the intersection of the upper and lower cover molds of the F75 is arc-shaped, but the entire circle has no obvious cutting feel, and it feels very round.



The back is a bit of a tiger and rabbit family design, but this time the F75 is more refined than the H98, with a circle of electroplated imitation metal, and a sealed cover plate in the middle that is a little darker than the keyboard body, with this color on it The name Fleur Rouge. In English, it is - getting rich overnight, this...



On the back is the large metal LOGO nameplate of Hubatu, but press the bottom with a little force, it can be tilted up, and a 2.4G receiver is hidden inside.



Coupled with the front subtitle nameplate that is simulated as rabbit ears, I have to say, no matter how you look at its appearance, this is the most exquisite mass-produced keyboard I have seen in recent years.



After talking about the appearance, the keyboard is still used in the final analysis. Plug in the 2.4G receiver, turn on the switch, and the small screen lights up.



In fact, I have seen a lot of keyboards with screens recently, but I don’t have much novelty and desire to play with them. However, the screen cover of the F75 is slightly raised, which feels like a drop of water.



This keyboard unsurprisingly uses the Gasket structure. Although it is unsurprising that it uses the most commonly used full silicone padding for mass-produced keyboards, it actually feels soft and elastic to the hand.



The shaft uses TTC's latest high-speed rail shaft - the Uranus shaft. This shaft adopts a brand-new appearance and internal guide rail structure. How should I say its hand feeling is very smooth.



The shafts we have used before are nothing more than lubricating the shafting, guide rails, and small feet, but the two shafts of the high-speed rail type are very comprehensive. The entire shaft center is fully lubricated, and the bottom of the spring is also lubricated. The resulting effect is that firstly, it feels very smooth, and secondly, the bottoming sound of this shaft body is not loud and very nice.




And I don’t know if it’s the difference between the switches or because this keyboard will come out later, this Neptune switch feels smoother than the Venus switch I used at the beginning of the year, and the friction sound when I put it on my ear is also smoother. a little better. I guess the TTC is also gradually optimizing the technology of the high-speed rail shaft.



In addition, this set of shafts has a condenser, so although the filled silicone used by the F75 is all dark gray, and the upper light position is designed, the brightness of the overall RGB backlight is actually acceptable.



Compared with the previous version, the keycap part has also been optimized to a certain extent. What is more characteristic is that there are three small bumps in the positioning blind spots of F and J, which is a relatively rare design. The touch of the surface is delicate, and the whole height is still very comfortable, and I don’t feel tired after typing for a long time.



The PC positioning board is slotted to make the feel softer.



The driver aspect has been mentioned on the Hubatu H98 and other similar keyboards before, and the software level of this small screen of his family is relatively complete.


It is impossible to have a keyboard that can satisfy everyone's preferences and needs, but as a mass-produced keyboard, the F75 has achieved a relatively high level in the three items of handle, appearance and even sound. The design is complicated but not messy, and the feel is light and soft, including the adjustment of the large keys this time, which is quite good. If you want to talk about the disadvantages, it would be better to add an under-axis pad, and such a complicated keyboard is equipped with TTC's high-speed rail-type axis body, which is not cheap at all. The price of F75 will also be slightly higher.
