ATK68 uses 2 different types of switches, to know exactly which one it uses, please remove yours and share a picture with us and we will check for compatibility.
I didn't received ATK68 yet but this is picture from youtube i buy this version too
can't be
this is a gateron ks-37b
can't compatible with raptor he
is RAESHA version can?
I dont know what is the raesha
when i buy it have 2 switch its raesha and gateron-37b
i think raesha is this one
it can not be
It just seems like both versions use the same PCB with just different switches, so raptor won't be compatible with either 'versions'
okay thank u hope u release for this
sry i have more question can i use raptor with mongeek m1 he or akko mod007 he
yeah, those ones will take raptor switches. though i’ve heard the software for the Akko/Monsgeek HE boards is pretty mediocre
Keychron has an HE board in pre order, it’s going to release in April. the software for their board probably will be decent if you want a 75% :) https://www.keychron.com/products/keychron-q1-he-qmk-wireless-custom-keyboard?variant=40734574805081
So you're saying that this will work with the switch? I want to make sure
yup, looking at pics of the keychron HE pcb and comparing it to the raptors, they look compatible
I was genuinely super worried about this
for visual comparison between the stock gateron hall effect switches in the keychron and the geon raptors:
One person told me no and that it's a ks 37 or something
Which I don't understand
that was on a different board wasnt it?
those were optical i believe
different from HE
i can do more looking
If you don't mind
I don't want to buy a 200 buck paper weight
Wdym, what are you referring to
nvm, i thought the atk68 board was optical
they just use some other odd thing
basically, the raptors and wooting lekker switches use a version of HE and a few other companies are starting to stick to that standard
i think the keychron HE board will be fitting that standard as well but it's so hard to find definite evidence haha
So I shouldn't buy it based on what you're saying
Based on looking at it, it seems like it would be fine but the issue is that since I'm so new to these things, I don't want to say anything or do anything and screw myself over
no yeah i totally get that. the only other thing i could suggest is possibly emailing keychron directly to see if they will support raptor switches
I just did
I sent an email to geon like last week and never got a response, so it is what it is
