K-Silver JH16 modules in depth
Summary
TLDRIn this video, the host explores the K Silver jh16 modules used in various gaming controllers, highlighting their cost-effectiveness and performance. They compare these modules to cheaper alternatives like the favor Union sticks and the more durable TX switches. The discussion covers controllers from brands like Turtle Beach, Victrix Gambit, and BFG, noting the differences in build quality and materials. The video also delves into the internal mechanisms of these controllers, comparing spring types and the impact on longevity and precision. The host shares their personal experience with controllers using jh16 modules, emphasizing their impressive performance despite the initial skepticism about their use in high-end controllers.
Takeaways
- 😀 The video discusses various thumbstick modules used in gaming controllers, focusing on K Silver's JH16 modules.
- 🔧 Cheaper controllers often use lower-quality thumbsticks with 1 million rotations and switches rated for 100,000 presses.
- 💷 High-end controllers like the Fusion Pro 3 and Nonon Revolution X use standard AlPS thumbsticks for better durability.
- 🔄 Victorix Gambit and BFG controllers use higher-rated modules with 2 million rotations and 1 million button presses.
- 🔩 The Thrust Master CNK modules offer variable spring strengths, providing customization not available with other brands.
- 🧲 K Silver's JH16 modules boast 5 million cycles of service life and use permanent magnets for high-temperature resistance and zero drift.
- 🛠️ The internal construction of thumbsticks varies, with cheaper models using a platform and spring system versus higher-end models with a more robust spring and shaft design.
- 🎮 Snake Bite Hair's GamePad RGB controller surprisingly uses the same K Silver JH16 modules found in much more expensive controllers.
- 📊 The video compares the resolution and performance of different controllers using JH16 modules, with some showing high resolution and others lower.
- 🔩 The video script suggests that the JH16 modules' performance is reliable, even with added weight from accessories like Control Freaks.
- ❓ The video ends with a call for viewer feedback on the longevity and performance of JH16 modules in controllers with extensive use.
Q & A
What types of controllers are using K Silver's JH16 modules?
-Controllers like the GamePad RGB by Snake Bite Hair, Nikon Revolution 5 Pro, and Turtle Beach Recon are using K Silver's JH16 modules.
What is the rating of the Hall effect thumbsticks used in cheaper controllers?
-The Hall effect thumbsticks used in cheaper controllers are rated for only 1 million rotations and the TX switch is rated for 100,000 presses.
How do the Victorix Gambit controllers differ in terms of thumbstick modules?
-The Victorix Gambit controllers use higher module thumbsticks rated for 2 million rotations and a million button presses, which is a significant upgrade from cheaper controllers.
What unique feature does Thrustmaster's CNK module offer that sets it apart?
-Thrustmaster's CNK modules offer the ability to choose different spring strengths, providing a customizable rotational force for the thumbsticks, which is not offered by Favor Union.
What is the claim made by Kilver about their JH16 thumbsticks regarding service life?
-Kilver claims that their JH16 thumbsticks have a service life of up to 5 million cycles, which is a significant claim compared to other thumbsticks on the market.
What is the difference in construction between cheaper thumbsticks and higher quality ones?
-Cheaper thumbsticks have a spring under a platform holding the housing against the shell, while higher quality ones have a larger diameter spring and metal parts, as opposed to the plastic parts found in cheaper modules.
Why might Kilver not have given a life rating for the TX switch used inside the controller?
-Kilver might not have given a life rating for the TX switch because they may have decided that the 5 million cycle rating for the thumbstick is the failure point, and they haven't provided a separate life rating for the metal conductive dome inside the stick.
How do the JH16 modules perform in terms of longevity and slop after extensive use?
-After extensive use, including over 150 hours of game time, the JH16 modules maintain good performance with minimal slop, even when used with additional weight from accessories like Control Freaks.
What is the reviewer's opinion on the use of JH16 modules in more expensive controllers?
-The reviewer believes that the use of JH16 modules in more expensive controllers is justified due to the high rotation claim and the engineering seen in the modules, which suggests they will hold up well over time.
What feature is the reviewer hoping to see implemented in future controllers?
-The reviewer hopes that future controllers will implement a true zero dead zone option, as they believe a Pro Controller should not have any dead zones.
