Which gummy O-ring should you use? 30A | 50A | 65A durometer

Описание: In this video, I tested 3 different gummy O-rings:
50A (The one that comes with the board)
30A and 65A (Bought from Graveshift.com)

This range of durometers represents both ends of the spectrum in terms of stiffness and its middle ground, the 50A. I tried my best to capture how they sound and feel on the video.

For me, you cannot go wrong with the stock 50A. 35A sounded sharper, higher pitched, and definitely had a softer typing experience. 65A is everything opposite the 35A. It sounded more rounded, lower-pitched, and had a stiffer typing experience. It also affects the overall volume of the board's sound. 35A is a little bit quieter and produces less reverb and 65A is louder and you can hear more of the natural sound of the board and how it translates vibrations from the build.

As for me, they all have their own uses and serve well with different preferences. I prefer the 50A for most of my builds. I use 65A on well-weighted boards so that you can hear more of the case sound. 30A if I want a softer typing experience.

I hope this video helped you decide on which gummy O-ring durometer is best for you 😁 As always, check the timestamp for better comparisons.
