Title: 45-50g rubber dome
Post by: tripleducky on Sat, 22 October 2016, 22:55:43

I actually kind of like rubber dome keyboards. Sometimes I prefer them, if they're nice.

Does anyone know of a rubber dome that actuates at 45-50g? More like reds? Decent quality? I have a couple boards but the lightest one I have takes about 57g of pressure, and I actually bothered to check. I've looked at some discussions but I'm having trouble finding information on actuation force. Feel free to correct me if I've missed something. I read someone saying the Dell Quietkey RT7D5JTW was light and high quality, but someone else said it was 57g, like the board I have now, so now I'm suspicious.

Besides Topre obviously because if the question was worth $250 I wouldn't ask.

kinesis's freestyle 2 has a 35g actuation point and a 44g peak force. some of the nicest domes I've ever used
