Let customers speak for us
from 215 reviewsI'm using a mac pro 3,1 and 5,1 which can fail to boot if the USB device is not compatible. The model H works flawlessly as replacement for the old PS/2 connection.
(keyboard : ZSA Voyager)
I was using Khail pink chocs as Iove the MX Silent Pinks, but the keys were still extremely noisy, with a lot of plastic on plastic clicking happening. Typing felt a bit lose too.
The ambient silent linear nocturnals fulfill all the expectations I had from the pinks : EXTREMELY quiet ... so much so that, even using the keyboard and knowing when a key is pressed, I barely hear anything except for the occasional very satisfying chonk, and the tactile feedback (on linears!) is amazing!
You really need these switches if you want *really* quiet and comfortable linear chocs with low weight and travel! I seriously don't know how they could be better.
PSA : you'll need 6 "boxes" to replace all switches on a Voyager.
I was a Red Pro fan...but then I found the Purpz (and the very similar Pinks and Blues) with even lighter activation force and fell for them on my Glove80.
Then I found these.
They are undoubtedly much, much quieter than any of the above. If that's a primary thing for you and you like a light keyswitch, stop reading now and buy them.
Feel-wise, the are almost as light as Purpz. Ok, for for "pure typing pleasure" I still kind of like the Purpz the most a bit. I admit I like sometimes the feeling of jamming away and bottoming out a bunch as I slam another Unix command. I kind of like the clatter and supremely light feel.
I think the slight shock absorption on these Nocturnals means these discourage you from bottoming out. They make you want to type lightly. And that's probably kind of a good ergonomic thing.
Also they're not QUITE as light as Purpz / Pinks / Blues...but that's kind of a good thing esp in the beginning because I accidentally hit keys on Purpz a lot the first few weeks.
I didn't like the feeling of the low profile purpz (I think?) linears, so looked for a tactile switch in a low profile form factor. As I saw multiple reviews of the brown switches not being tactile enough, I spent a bit more on there sunsets. They are very snappy and satisfying, they are akin to a sharp bump MX switch (but with shorter travel ofc). I think it's money well spent, and the creator of this switch did a wonderful job. Shame they are very pricey though.
I use Kailh Silent Pinks in my Dygma Defy but it originally came with Silent Browns so it had Brown Chocs under the lower thumb cluster. I was not a fan. Swapped them for the Ambient Twilights; perfect. Now II see a ZSA Voyager in my future and it will have Twilights or maybe even Nocturnals.
Ambients line up is fantastic. Love the sound.
35gf is a nice sweet spot for super light with tactility to feed-back into your fingers and prompt you to head to the next key, best WPM I've had is on 35gf switches. 1.5/3mm short stroke also helps a lot too.
Lube made barely any difference to both stem and spring, but worth doing the stem since it's easier to access than MX style stems. Don't bother with the spring. Stem lube just smooths out the chalky sound a bit and brings out a little more marble.
There is a slight increase in resistance at the end if you bottom it out. Otherwise unremarkable linear feel. On the voyager it's generally got issues with inconsistent feel, so take with a pinch of salt.
Until your wpm hits 100+, these are just fine. Even then, there's a slight bump as you move your fingers across to the above or below key, which you may consider distracting, but you quickly get used to it. It's very easy to find your home row, they just work so well.
Really quiet switches. I switched normal Kailh red with these on zsa voyager and the keyboard now is almost completely silent.
Premium look and feel. Happy with the quality, but I absolutely love they provide home keys for other layouts like dvorak
Previously I had been using some kind of red caps which had claimed to be the quietest caps available. They were too soft and were still too clacky.
These caps are completely different; these have a better resistance without being too heavy and are so much quieter.
Will definitely be ordering more for my other keyboards.
These are very quiet. On my board they make a very faint pleasant sound, kind of like pencil on paper. Way quieter than the only other "silent" switches I've tried (Cherry silent reds on an MX board). However they are slightly too light for my comfort - I sometimes get accidental keypresses from resting my fingers on the board. I got them because I was previously using Kailh Choc Browns and found them way too heavy and fatiguing for my fingers, and they are way better than the Browns, but I plan to get the Ambient Sunrises when they come out and hopefully those will be the happy medium.
I'm now using the keyboard at home and at work. The build guide didn't have any info on the Helios board, so in case others are wondering, the top two through holes are unused. You can use the ground pins to line things up with the lily58 kicad schematic. Also, flashing a helios just takes copying a uf2 file to the board once you've reset it and mounted it as a storage drive.
I had a lot of fun building it and a mild panic until I figured out the last bit!
A very nice screen. Slightly wider than normal oled which is nice and very small battery usage.
Only thing to improve would be to have these packaged with individual padding and the standoffs in a separate bag as I have had screens arrived damaged from other vendors.
They are quiet, light, and they feel great to type on. If you want a light low-profile switch, this is the switch to get.
