is nc.com hey guys I got by to the toer

4
00:00:13,080 --> 00:00:18,039
booth I had to check these guys out as I haven't actually typed on a toer in real

5
00:00:16,320 --> 00:00:22,119
life I know a lot about Toppers but I've never actually typed on one their toer

6
00:00:19,960 --> 00:00:25,880
real Force boards as we see right here can range anywhere around 300 bucks toer

7
00:00:24,400 --> 00:00:29,320
switches are basically a hybrid capacitive switch that have a spring

8
00:00:27,599 --> 00:00:33,920
under a rubber Dome and they're known as some of the best SES money can actually

9
00:00:31,400 --> 00:00:37,760
buy they have a better gradient weight press down than Reds and blacks do on MX

10
00:00:36,280 --> 00:00:41,039
Cherry switches you might be wondering why I'm saying this as I own many MX

11
00:00:39,559 --> 00:00:45,360
Cherry boards I also own a buckling spring I hope to own a toer at some

12
00:00:42,879 --> 00:00:48,640
point but it's just the fact of it now if we move away from the $300 keyboard

13
00:00:47,199 --> 00:00:52,879
that is out of most people most people's price points you can get to this one

14
00:00:50,600 --> 00:00:57,640
this is in the mid $100 so you're getting 100 to I think 150 to 180 around

15
00:00:56,239 --> 00:01:01,640
there I got I just got some nods so apparently that's right you're still getting the toer Swit you're still

16
00:01:00,440 --> 00:01:06,360
getting what these keyboards are really really known for but the printing is not

17
00:01:04,680 --> 00:01:12,080
quite as high quality as the old real forces and the Plastics used in this in

18
00:01:09,119 --> 00:01:16,640
the key caps is ABS instead of PBT so what they saved on was actually the key

19
00:01:14,119 --> 00:01:21,400
caps not the switches which is really the typing experience personally I have

20
00:01:18,960 --> 00:01:26,479
Cherry MX keyboards but with custom PBT caps so I do really really like my caps

21
00:01:23,680 --> 00:01:31,240
but the cost of Entry of getting one of the new typ heaven toer keyboards is

22
00:01:28,960 --> 00:01:35,640
much much much cheaper than the old real forces and is actually bringing them in

23
00:01:33,479 --> 00:01:39,759
a more common consumer Market instead of before where they're just very very very

24
00:01:37,240 --> 00:01:42,920
high-end keyboards this is very very exciting as mechanical keyboards

25
00:01:41,200 --> 00:01:47,240
especially in the United States I'm from Canada but especially in the United States are becoming much much more

26
00:01:45,439 --> 00:01:50,360
popular you now have another option other than just Cherry keyboards so if

27
00:01:48,920 --> 00:01:55,799
you really like mechanical keyboards but have not found a cherry switch that is exactly to your liking now you can get a

28
00:01:53,680 --> 00:01:59,479
toer this is absolutely great I'm very very happy to see the typ heaven if you
