  • Haven’t tried the KS-33 browns yet. I have some of the aloe and wisteria switches but no board to put them in yet (this one is soldered). The KS-27 browns are good but not amazing. I think they’d be better lubed, and I might even prefer a slightly lighter spring.

    The closest thing I have to compare with is Choc Sunsets, which I thought were underwhelming out of the box, but are awesome with a 35g spring swap and lube. Considering the price though, the Gateron switches are a great value. I’d love to see more boards supporting them.


  • I have a few keyboards I use regularly but this is my current favorite. KLOR by GEIST, KS-27 version and case by Sadek Baroudi. The keycaps are my own design and printed in resin on my Photon Mono 4k. More info about the keycap profile soon 😉

    Trackball is an Elecom Deft Pro, with the bearings replaced with ZrO2 bearings (easy mod, took 10 minutes and cost less than $10). The size and shape is perfect for my hands, it has lots of buttons, and the battery lasts for months. I wish it had a scroll ring instead of or in addition to the scroll wheel, but aside from that it’s near perfect.
