Mushy left shift stabilizer on Poker II with MX Blues
« on: Sat, 16 August 2014, 18:50:45 »
My left shift is mushy and doesn't spring back up like the right shift does, should I RMA the keyboard or wait for it to break in?

I've had it for almost two weeks no and it hasn't changed, and I've tried teflon tape on the stabilizer like users elsewhere have suggested.

I was told it would help, hmm.

It's like whenever I hit the key the stabs don't spring back up, and when I bottom out the key it doesn't thud like the right one.

The mushiness often slows down my typing, not sure if I would RMA it to MechanicalKeyboards.com or just keep it if I'm only going to get one that is just as mushy.

I thought that was only on Costar stabs?

Example: https://www.dropbox.com/s/rull7ir3ykaajpk/Video%20Aug%2017%2C%2012%2025%2000%20AM.mov

what?

clipping the stabilizers are for cherry stabilizers.
