      all jwk is basically a replacement of zeal switches (because they are actually same switches because durock remade tealios non legally and then made it legal and cheaper, read stealios controversy). I tried two versions official and not - they are actually same, if there are differences those are negligibal. It was not nice move of jwk, but zeal overpricing switches is not super nice too, so yeah

      @@meemattt I have both Zealios v2 and T1's and they are very similar but there is a difference on the followthrough after the bump which both start at the top. Personally I prefer the Zealios, especially because I live in Canada, so shipping for Zealios are cheaper for me because Zeal is Canadian, and once I get T1's shipped here they're about the same price at the end of the day. The T1's are VERY good, and if you can get them for a good price I'd say go for it, but there is something special about the Zealios that the T1 doesn't QUITE match.

    have been using my tealios for some months now and like it alot. its totally trasnparent so RGB shows really well compared to the smokey or translucent housing of other switches. 205g0 and krytox 105 spring lubbed with tx .15 filmed its really really smooth to type on. no doubt the sounding of it is higher pitch but its so satisfying compared to deeper sounding switches which could sound "hollow" if not sound isolated well enough. that to me is worth the $1 as you can use it for a long long time, and since its so well made removing it from hotswapped board is also so much easier compared to JWK switches. To me i would say its well worth the money 100%. I have got Black Inks waiting to be build on some up coming build and will give my take on how good it is

    I've had the chance to try Tealios, Ink Blacks, and Tangerines side-by-side. The Ink Blacks were the smoothest when stock and the Tealios really didn't feel like they were worth that kind of price. I've lubed the three now with 205g0 and it's harder to decide which is the smoothest, but the Tealios definitely don't feel like they're a cut above the other two. Some part of me felt as if the Tealios are slightly smoother than Inks when lubed, but the more I pay attention the harder it got to really be sure of that. It's gonna take me a while to decide which I genuinely like better, but the price of Tealios is always going to be a sticking point.

    The tealios switches are well worth the price. I bought the switch purely for the typing sound and I can say that I am very well satisfied. If you want a deep thocc tying sound then this switch is def for you. I have tried the Gateron Ink, the lavenders, the JWKs and non of them sound as clean as tealios v2. Note, the sound of the switches will depend on how much lube you put on them and the material of the keyboard. Overall I think this switch is well worth the price, it is especially good if you can get it on discount like I did.

      they are just recolored Durock Ls, equally manufactured by JWK. only difference is they should have a UHMWPE bottom housing (which is unlikely, UHMWPE is not transparent, unlike OA's bottom housing. it's probably a nylon/UHMWPE mix, with the latter in a minimal quantity).

      By saying you're not into custom, I assume you're saying you prefer pre-built stuff like Razer, Corsair or those cheaper brands you can buy off of Aliexpress/Banggood/etc?
      Because literally any other type of keyboard bought from keyboard brands are still custom (Epomaker, KBDfans, Ducky, etc)... Like, you're not the one building it, but it's still custom built in that you choose the switches, plate, RGB or not, keycaps, etc... so it's still a custom.

      You can draw he same parallel with keycaps though, except the greedyness is even more horrific, a x70 pack of Inks is about 50$ and a x70 pack of Tealios is about 70$ for about the same quality, 20$ difference, a YMDK set is about 30$ and is just as good as a GMK set which sells for about 180$, 150$ difference hahaha

    I tried with milky tops. It's *chefs kiss*. With KAT keycaps, it sounds so thocky. I love it. (no film with them).

    What's the difference between these and the tiffany telios? On their site they are sold as separate products on separate product pages.

    having owned a switch tester with both (i know thats very different from an actual keyboard with them) i honestly prefer plain gateron blacks, not inks, just blacks

    Do you NEED to clean the factory lube from the Durocks to lube them with krytox205g0 or can you just lube over it no problem?

    Can I put gateron ink blacks in a GK61? Would I have to clip any of the pins and does that affect performance/sound/feel

    I bought a gk61 a little while ago and i was wondering if i can switch the current switches out with glorious pandas?

    This hobby is very young and 2 years is an extremely long time. Only makes sense that these have been overshadowed by much newer options.
