Reply to comment by aleksyandr in Space65 R3 - already dead from ESD! :( by aleksyandr

wow a board of that type of cost and it has no ESD protection? that just blows my mind.... that would almost certainly never happen on a non custom keyboard. so how could they think its acceptable to allow it to even be a possibility on that. i would be so pissed off iof this happened to me, esp since i have so many keebs that have cost me 1k plus to build...i wonder why it being plugged into the usb c cable wouldnt prevent this from happening since its grounded is it not

You should check your facts before making wrong statements and absurd accusations suggesting the makers intentionally made this possible.

Answering your next question: the so called "ESD protection" does not guarantee total immunity and number of factors may contribute to such incident. No - I am not able to investigate this remotely and this is why I would restrain from making silly conclusions.

I’m sorry, you’re defending the keyboard maker for selling products that can’t survive static electricity why?

No silly, maybe read my comment again and again before typing nonsense.

FYI: I am only opposing false statements about facts and coming up with absurd conclusions - all clearly made by wannabe experts. It has nothing to do with this maker.

>products that can’t survive static electricity

And you just done the same! Congratulations!

You all can downvote as much as you like - you still not qualified to make this judgement about the product or maker.

Tip: read comments below about very similar incident with completely different board from different maker - only total ignorant goes instantly to exclusively blame product or maker.

Nice, now can you write a few more paragraphs on why an expensive custom keyboard susceptible to ESD by touching the key caps is anyone’s fault but the manufacturer?

Again you are talking rubbish.

You have no authority to judge this wasn't caused by anything else but "touching the key caps", because you weren't there, you have no info how OP build this board, how his setup is grounded etc etc... I have no time to talk about many other factors involved.

Any consumer electronic device is susceptible to ESD damage in some circumstances regardless of best efforts from the maker.

Your expectation based on "expensive custom" is just hilarious since high price has nothing to do with any extra ESD prevention.

Good job, you disqualified yourself from further discussion by pulling most absurd calling card.

So you’re defending the defective keyboard for free? Are you ok?
