Jan 17, 2023 · Topre switches are built with a key switch plunger held above a rubber dome by a key switch housing. Inside that rubber dome is a spring, and a printed circuit board (PCB) is below the spring. When you press a Topre switch, the plunger …

Sep 14, 2021 · The only BKE dome I would use is the extra light ones as at least then there's a little something there other than just the huge bump. I also noticed you mentioned Boba UT4 with Topre and I agree there as well.

Topre manufactures a line of Realforce keyboards advertised as 'Variable-weight' with domes ranging from 30g to 55g depending on the model, with placement based on home-row typing technique.

Apr 2, 2022 · Some advice for topre dome swapping. Tried some sets of domes on my hybrid type-s, ended up swapping back to stock topre dome. Most of the domes failed to impress, so here's some advice:

Jun 6, 2023 · Calling Topre "rubber domes" is a snarky comment popular among people who don't like the switch, often followed by an explanation why mechanical keyboards are better when in truth it's all just preference.

Jan 9, 2014 · The switch is constructed of very few and very simple parts (PCB (Capacitive Sensor) -> Spring -> Rubber Dome -> Housing) and the rubber dome is protecting the internals from the environments (like dust and ash in my case).

Topre switches are electrostatic keyboard switches that combine the best of rubber dome and mechanical key switch technology. Unlike mechanical keyboard switches, keypresses on Topre switches are detected electrically.

Topre switches feel like you are pressing your fingers into a rubber dome. Rather than a hard, flat, or curved down surface. This is because they do have a rubber dome inside of them as well as a spring which helps remove the unwanted mush feel that you get from a …

Topre keyboards use a small, low-force conical spring as a variable capacitor, that is in turn operated by a rubber dome inside the key. At least two manufacturers produced fully self-contained switches, that could be soldered to a PCB, with a conductive rubber dome inside.

Sep 6, 2024 · Topre switches merge rubber dome with electrostatic capacitive technology for a smooth, tactile feel. The Hall Effect switches work on magnetic sensors to trigger accurately without a debounce effect.
