As a heavy keyboard user, he still has high requirements for the use of the keyboard. After using the mechanical keyboard, he can't go back, but the mechanical keyboard In addition, the mechanical key shaft is prone to problems after being used for a long time. Traditional mechanical keyboards can only experience a different handle of the key shaft by replacing the entire keyboard Each key shaft is either a little hands-on and can replace the key shaft by himself with an electric soldering iron, or can only replace the keyboard with a new one. The cost is very high. In this case, the heteropole has introduced a mechanical keyboard with changeable key shaft, so let's Replacing the key shaft becomes easy and simple, opening a new door on the evolution of mechanical keyboards. This time, I got a modular mechanical keyboard with changeable mechanical shaft for the monster fighter. It's still very interesting. Let's join you Start sharing.

Unpacking

——————

The main black tone is used for the outer package of the demon fighter, and then the demon fighter comes on the scene like a lightning when he splits the sky. The senses are good.

On the outer package, it highlights the characteristics of replaceable key shaft.

The Devil Warrior adopts a full black design, which looks more grand and professional. The style is also simple, without too many complex elements.

Warfighter adopts the popular floating button design, which is easy to clean.

The black steel plate has been matted, and the texture is quite good

This flywheel is an interesting design. It is used to adjust the volume. It is more convenient than the traditional button type

The back is quite simple without too much decoration

The feet of this support must be praised. The inhalation feeling in the second half of the journey is very good and easy

The logo with different poles is made of braided wire, which is more resistant to pulling.

Simple instructions and stickers

Heteropolar axis

——————

The heteropolar self-produced mechanical axis used by the demon fighters. At present, the heteropolar has a gray axis, an orange axis and a purple axis. As far as the feel is concerned, the gray axis is similar to the original black axis, which is straight up and down, and has a fast excitation speed. The orange scroll is similar to the tea scroll, with a slight sense of paragraph, but no click sound. The purple axis is similar to the green axis, with obvious sense of paragraphs and clicking sound, which is my favorite. Let the enemy fly into the air with a click.

The shaft body has obvious polar logo, and the cross socket design is also convenient for compatibility with many key caps on the market. The pressure of heteropolar key shaft is 50g, and the key travel is 1.5mm, so the triggering speed is faster.

At the back of the shaft body, 2 contacts and a light guide strip can be seen. All shafts are made of beryllium copper alloy (with a series of excellent physical, chemical and mechanical properties such as high strength, elasticity, hardness, fatigue strength, small elastic hysteresis, corrosion resistance, cold resistance, high conductivity, non-magnetic, impact without spark, etc.), which is more durable than ordinary alloys

Double blade and double cross contact structure are adopted for the heteropolar shaft, and 30 μ gold plating is added to prevent continuous strike. And the single axle durability can reach 70 million times.

The secret of the changeable axis of the demon fighter lies in the MMS magic array system

We can see that each magic array contains 2 contacts and an LED light source. The Z-type contact material is still beryllium copper and gold plated. The number of shaft changes has reached 10 million times, which is quite a good indicator.

Axis changing experience

——————

The demon fighter randomly attached a key and shaft pulling tool.

The key pulling is very simple, and the key cap also adopts a two-color injection molding process, which has a good feel and texture.

drawing The shaft is relatively troublesome, because the shaft pulling tool can't be stuck, so it needs more skill when pulling. Compared with the difficult pulling out, it is very simple to install a new shaft body, as long as the aligned light guide strip is pressed gently. master After good skills, the whole process of changing the axis and the key cap is very fast. For example, I changed the direction key to the most straightforward gray axis, so that the game of doubles with friends is more comfortable and faster, ha ha..

From my current experience, the technology of changing the shaft with different poles is quite perfect and simple. In the future, even if the key shaft is broken, there is no need to worry about it. It is easy to replace it. As far as the price of a single shaft body is 4 circles, it is much simpler and more economical to replace it with a full keyboard or a soldering iron.

user's experience

——————

I personally prefer the white backlight currently used by the Warrior. It is more eye-catching and not too dazzling at night.

There are several obvious differences between the Warrior and other keyboards. First, the win key is not bright. In order to avoid accidentally touching the win key in the game, the win key can be turned off. To know whether to turn it off or not, you can learn by back The light shows that the WIN key on the right has been changed to Fn key, and various functions can be enabled through Fn combination keys. For example, switching between light effects and key stroke conflicts. Finally, pgup is always on and pgdn is always off, which is to It is easier for players to switch between the instructions of "no rush for 6 keys" and "no rush for all keys". It can be said that the devil fighters have paid much attention to the small details of ease of use. And because of its built-in memory, these functions can be implemented independently of the driver, It is convenient. Of course, more functions need to be realized by drivers.

The light guide strip is quite beautiful at night. In terms of hand feel, the purple axis is softer than the original green axis, not as crisp as the original one. In addition, the shorter key path makes triggering faster and more efficient Personally, I like the feel. In addition, I changed the commonly used direction keys to gray axis, which makes me feel more relaxed in the game. This also reflects the advantage of axis change. You can use the most appropriate axis according to your own preferences. The most suitable is the best, isn't it..

summary

——————

advantage

1. Simple appearance and fine workmanship

2. The materials and workmanship of the shaft body design are good, and the handle is also good

3. The replaceable shaft body is designed with equivalent NB, which greatly increases the playability of the keyboard and reduces the later maintenance cost.

4. The humanized design is very meticulous.

5. Roller tuning is very convenient.

6. Built in memory can realize the combination application of function keys without relying on the driver.

Insufficient:

1. The shaft pulling tool is not very easy to use, and it requires skills to pull the shaft body.

2. If the keyboard can be equipped with a palm rest, it will be perfect. It is said that it will be equipped later. I'm looking forward to it

3. The metal bottom plate is a little easy to leave fingerprints and get dirty by finger oil.

In general, the Heteropolar Warmonger is a big screen that opens the interchangeable axis of the mechanical keyboard. Its ease of use and diversity of DIY will appeal to many users like me who like to struggle. If Heteropolar Warmonger can provide more cost-effective axis units, it is hard to think of such a design, but I have been deeply impressed by it now....
