Cerakey V2 - Are They Fixed?

Thanks for a great review! FYI - the crazed keycaps are pudgier because the crackle glaze needs to be layered on much thicker than clear glaze in order to get that cracked effect. Thicker layer = more cracks and better colour pay off

Why do you drag out the last syllable of your sentence so long

I was really disappointed with v1. Not only did the keys fall off, I had an issue where ceramic dust would rub off of the steams and get into my switches, making them really scratchy. They ruined a whole set of switches. The caps also have the worst tolerances of any keycaps I've tried, and sometimes they are shifted to the right or left so much that they were huge gaps between adjacent keys. Even if they solved the stem issue, it looks like the molds aren't very crisp. I guess I'll pass.

Thanks for the great video :) I nearly bought the crazed set, but you've saved me!
I will buy the blank white set, as soon as they've restocked it.

I got mine the other day and your video prompted me to look at something, I don't think I actually got the V2, my stems are still ceramic.

I've got a v1 set from their first kickstarter round and I love them. I guess I'm lucky because they stay tight on my switches. But yeah, v2 stems are a much better design.
It's almost ironic that they introduced another issue with their "fixed" crazed keycaps. Apparantly the coating is way too thick on them.

thank you for talking about the crazed keycaps, you are the only person that i found to talk about this. i'm a really nitpicked person and those flaws would have bothered me so much.

[Koko-snin]

I think I made a good purchase, the keycaps sound so good

[thearcanamodernau]

To each their own I guess. I just bought mine and the only ones that clash are the Alt keys but most of the time I don't even notice it. Other than that I kinda enjoy the little imperfections they have, they really give the feeling of an artisanal product

[kromatikal]

I'm planning on buying this for my wooting 60he. With lekker 45 (45 gram switches), I was wondering if you think the spacebar would be too heavy for the switches.

Thanks for mentioning the spacing problem of the crazed key, almost purchased that, though I’m definitely getting one of the v2, any idea if they are planning on v3 early next year ?

[amizan]

Do the F and J keys have the little notches?

[Mingodough]

Do the legends “wear off”? I’ve read a couple posts saying that their wasd was wearing down (I think they had v1)

[matthewjsherman]

i understand v2 is much lighter? whats the lightest spring/actuation force i can use without coming into issues

[natedraper]

Crazed is all they have in stock right now apparently, unfortunate

[CorbinSikes]

just now seeing this video but i recently as in a couple weeks ago got my v2 crazed color way and yes the keycaps are more rounded and took a little getting used to, the bottom row on mine doesn't have any clacking issues or anything like that, i will probably check out the v3's just out of sheer curiosity but the v2's that i recieved work pretty good with the only two keys close enough together to maybe be a problem being the left alt and windows key, and even with the lack of spacing there is no bumping or at least not a noticeable sound when pressed

[notmoroku]

How is the RGB with the colored keycaps like the black and indigo? I saw the white ones and saw how beautiful they were with the light bouncing off of them!

[aaronharper]

I'm planning on getting the crazed blue keycaps. Does the spacebar also have the spacing issue?

[ROADRAGE]

wait where did you get the orange qk 100 from?

[pepi]

no mention of the spacebar weight? im going to assume thats a non-issue. do you use < or > 45g switches?
