I would assume it's protection from overcharging the bluemini. Your smart phone and laptop probably does something similar where it'll drain down to 99% occasionally after getting fully charged, and then top back up to 100%.

First off, been a long time since I posted on Head-Fi and I'm back because I wanted to say that the Deva Pro is great. It's truly what I consider to be practical hifi. There's a lot of good that I can go on about but really I wanted to talk about my main points of improvement for the headphone...

This is my cross bike--it's set up with road tires right now. I use this bike most of the time because it has a power meter, whereas my actual road bike doesn't have one. 

They're both good, but Ducky is better value right now. You should also look at KBParadise. I recommend the KBParadise keyboards over Ducky now, because the Shine 4 feels cheaper than the Shine 3. I don't own a Shine 4 but I tried one earlier this month, and I wasn't impressed with the build. It...

They don't feel much better than ABS does.    You should be looking at keycap profile and thickness for differences in keycap feel.    I would recommend the Novatouch first and getting a better keycap set when you can afford it.

The full hand red looks sweet!   I was afraid to get full hand when I got my ErgoDox because I heard a lot of people were used to the feel. They certainly look the best though.

The upcoming Ducky Shine 4 should be right up your alley. 

Judging from the description of this bike, do you guys think this is a decent deal? I'd have to do the cleaning myself, replace the tires and get the bike fit, I'm assuming.   http://sfbay.craigslist.org/eby/bik/4558785000.html

Don't go with small brands that you haven't heard of. The smallest I would go are companies like Keycool and HPE, but don't blindly buy a new keyboard because a quality keyboard is quite inexpensive.

Clear isn't just a stiffer brown! It's also more tactile. Most keyboard enthusiasts prefer clear switches because they can put a lightweight spring similar to the weight of a brown switch into the clear switch and create a more tactile version of the brown. This is called ergo-clear and it's one...

Yeah, I know some guys that used to only use the Microsoft Ergonomic keyboards, then he got a mechanical keyboard and realized that there are mechanical ergonomic keyboards...You should just stick with your Microsoft keyboard 

The same applies with all other keyboards that have detachable cables. Mini USB is weak in general. I wouldn't read the newegg reviews by the way, there are very very few people that actually know what they're talking about. If you're afraid of breaking the mini usb connection, buy a mini usb...

Oh, I guess they're discontinued now. That was fast.   Anyways, you can try this Rosewill one instead, they have pretty good keyboards. You can buy blank keycaps for pretty cheap though, so don't worry about that. TKL sets will cost around $10 or so. ...

If you want something cheap I know that Thermaltake offers MX Black keyboards for pretty cheap. I've seen them as low as $35 before so it will be a lot cheaper than buying a Das 4 or WASD keyboard, both of which aren't worth it imo.

I usually ask, "Are you sure you want a full sized keyboard?"

I think that anyone that bottoms out owes it to themselves to get a Topre keyboard. It's a switch that has a force curve similar to a regular keyboard, and bottoming out is the only way to type on it. Don't try to adapt to your mechanical keyboard, I bottom out on all my keyboards. Find a...

I just use dental bands instead of orings. I know that there are hardness ratings on orings...but dental bands are a low cost alternative nonetheless.

Butter knife works fine for o-ring stuff as well as changing out keycaps if i you don't have a keycap puller.

Topre might be for you. Look out for a cheap used one. Most practical premium keyboard for the workplace and pretty much anywhere else as well. Try the 55g uniform Realforce or the Leopold FC660C (blank keycaps rule!)

Easiest way is to buy one that's used. If you know how to build a keyboard, that's great, but since you're asking how I'm assuming you probably haven't tried assembling a keyboard before. If you want to start from scratch you'll need to buy a KMAC 2 from originativeco.com (only place it's sold...

Ducky Shine 3 is probably the best backlit keyboard out there at the moment. Great build quality and the most lighting modes out there. There's currently a lot of hype for the Corsair RGB keyboards, but I'm not sure what the price of that is going to look like so be wary of a high price tag.   ...

Meh, there's a LOT of awesome keyboards you can buy for that price. You can get a fully customized 60% Poker II, Ducky Shine 3, or a Realforce/Leopold Topre keyboard. Not sure about the newest rendition of the Das keyboard, but they silently downgraded the quality of their keyboards a long time...

If possible, try to aim for clears instead of browns in budget allows. I'm borrowing a switch tester right now and I can confidently say that I like clears by far at every weight (stock, 45g, 55g, 62g, 65g and 67g as well). Topre really isn't that expensive now considering that you get PBT...

$50-$60 is around the going price for a Model M. Only the Model F AT and the SSK get the high price tags on Ebay. Here's an industrial SSK that sold recently. Keep in mind it's only worth that much because it's NIB and has the gray case along with the TKL layout, and because there's a couple...

It's already gone mad, memory used to be much cheaper than this. 16GB for $100 used to be no problem, but now there are little to no offerings at that price.
