Best O-rings to get rid of travel after click on a Razer Chroma?
« on: Sat, 04 July 2015, 13:59:29 »
So I recently received a Razer Chroma after owning my Laser mech for about a year. Love the RGB and over all build but the problem I'm having is the travel on these new switches. With my Laser the SMK switches bottomed out right after the click...with this new one though they bottom out after what seems like forever after the click.

Does anyone know of some larger O-rings or O-rings that will greatly reduce the travel on these switches/keys? I don't know if normal O-rings will cut it as I don't have any on hand.

Hmmm...thoughts?

I do this, even with 2 orings. It really works. Make it like the shortest distance tap on a key.
Better have few size ready, experiment each combination. Press the key the slowest as possible, just the right height before the key register.

Picture shown the right keycap with 2 orings is my WASD, shift, control.
The left is my R, Q & spacebar.

For OEM keycaps you should get some "thick" o-rings from lwpl, but seems he's out of stock at the moment.

What are those thick O-rings you have on the right? The orange ones? Have any you can sell?

Could be those from IMSTO

http://imsto.cn/index.php?route=product/product&path=61&product_id=78

I ordered 2 packs of o-rings from them may 30th and never got them so deal with them at your own risk.

You could have a look at Massdrop, this drop probably have a size for you.
