I can't remove switches from my keyboard, even when it is hot-swap..

If it's older stock it may have those awful round sockets and been sitting in a non-airconditioned warehouse in southern China for years before shipping out. The sockets and switches gently corrode until they are one with each other. I pulled a switch in half getting it out of a socket like that. I

Recomendación de teclado mecánico

Si queres 100% con pantallita + ruedita te recomiendo el Aula f108 pro, es el que uso para programar + gaming y está buenisimo. Igual no sé si es mi unidad pero la ruedita me anda medio mal. Y con la bateria dura unos 10 dias aprox, pero si le prendés el rgb capaz dura 2 con toda la furia. Tambien v

Is new K552 is not hot swappable?

Edit: every time i say stem, it's the metal pins. It is hotswappable, but the socket is not cherrymx style, it's outemu which uses thinner stems. If you wanna install cherry style switches you need to trim the stems or desolder the sockets. Instead of having proper sockets it just has some really so

Easiest way to remove K559 switches

Redragon's older boards are REALLY bad about this, not only are they those horrible Outemu style sockets but they are old stock. I had a K552 that I just gave up on because it had obviously been marinating in humid air for years until the switches had become one with the PCB.

Hotswap?

I have a redragon k552 that also was removing very hard. But I blaim the shitty free tool they give. I ordered this and it was soooo much easier to remove. I suggest investing in this.https://amzn.to/4rhAjeC

Pulling switches out of socket

The Redragon k552 has those horrible little round sockets, it's also a very old board and when you get one it may have been sitting in a non-air-conditioned warehouse in South China for most of a decade before it got on a ship for delivery. I had one and gave it away when I realized that it would ta

And also, said redragon k552 was around 30 dollars, so considering it's a budget keyboard, I'd pick eva foam for both bottom and top of pcb. On top of that though, the rose a120 silent linear keyswitches does have some dampening properties so combining that with eva foam as foam mod and pcb-plate mo
