I have the cyberspace bbox60 and I added eva foam to make it less noisy but it is still quite loud
I wish they would fix the fixed plastic standoffs by making them lower and then use standalone standoffs so you don’t have to cut out the plastic standoffs that are interfering with the pcb
These are burger-mod adjacent, I guess - not as much squish as you’d get from an o-ring. More of an isolation layer than something to add any mobility to the assembly, but also a lot easier to install.
The form factor they went with is so distracting. How did they still squeeze 4 stabs in a 29 key layout? Huge +1 for their dedication to dedicated arrow keys.
The more I look the more I have questions. It’s like a Pain27 and a steno board had a baby, but there were some complications. As an “arrows are necessary keys” fan, I agree.
Finally! I’ve been so wanting to try these to see what all the hubbub is about. The only thing that gets me about burger mounting using o-rings is how much it elevates the keycaps in the case. I hoping these will help with that. Thanks for sharing.
Depends on if a plastic standoff is at the same position as a diode, surface mount diodes are easier to acidentally remove than through hole. The case comes with metal standoffs to use if you don’t want to remove the interfering plastic ones but then the pcb will be higher up and the removable usb-c hole adapter won’t work
I found a picture of my case but not all standoffs are shown and I taped the unused non-interfering standoffs to prevent any shorts
Weird, I didn’t run into this with mine - then again I’m currently using a GK61x PCB with it, which may have its nubbins placed such that they don’t interfere with those standoffs.
IIRC there’s actually a hole in that PCB that lines up with one of those and the PCB sits right on it, but the GK61-to-GH-pattern plate I’m using covers that hole.
