This is a review and build video of my modded Everest Max.

This video is the reason I am creating: The best hot swappable keyboards under $100. It is my daily driver and the best keyboard that I own, I am using it as a basis of comparison for other videos. I upgraded this already ultimate keyboard. 

How to open switches: (0:00)
How to lube the switch housing: (0:40)
Lubing the switch stems: (1:02)
Assembling the switches: (1:24)

Keycaps and B Roll of Keycaps: (2:11)
Keyboard Sounds and comparison: (2:39)

This video explains how to open, lube with krytox 205g0, and assemble mechanical key switches for mechanical keyboards. It also showcases my Everest max keyboard, lubed cherry mx speed switches, and HyperX pudding keycaps (the white version, although I bought the black version too - The white ones "pop" better.)

This keyboard build was really easy to do with the hot-swap sockets in my Everest Max. I lubed the cherry silver speed switches that came with my board, and replaced the keycaps with Hyperx doubleshot PBT keycaps. These keyboard mods are really simple and make such an amazing result! 

This is the best sounding board I have ever built, and the best looking keyboard by far. 

I normally prefer tactile switches, like Zealios v2 switches.
