Now every key on the pad is silent and squishy with a very similar feel to that of the Tartarus Pro. I grabbed my utility razor and began slicing off the little plastic nubs. This gave me the idea to completely remove all of the tiny plastic nubs to make all of the keys silent when pressed. When I turned the key around, that nub on the stem did not rub on anything to make it click when pressed. On the stem of the key there is a small plastic nub only on one side of the key stem that brushes across a metal nub on the base of the keypad. While doing this I noticed the mechanism on the stem of the keys and on the inside of the keypad that create the loud click. So I started pulling all of the keys off of the pad. This gave me the idea of doing the same thing with the other keys that are used for in game movement: forward, back, left strafe, and right strafe. It was upside down, or front side back, but now it wasn't sticking and when pressed down it required less force to actuate and it was SILENT. When I replaced the key it kept sticking so I pulled it off again, spun it around 180°, and placed it back on the pad. I pulled the key off to check for debris or residue that might have caused the sticking, but I didn't find anything. After two weeks of using the Tartarus V2, key number 8 or where 'w' would be on a keyboard started sticking when pressed down.

Reading around in r/razer I found that a few other people were experiencing the same issue with no solution so I returned the Pro and decided to just deal with the noisy V2. When the Tartarus Pro is connected to the PS4 it lights up but doesn't register any of the keypresses.

Right out of the box I loved the feel of the Tartarus Pro, but after connecting it to my PS4 I discovered that the two devices do not communicate with one another.

I didn't want a loud keypad so after some exploring I learned that the Tartarus Pro has quiet squishy linear keys so I purchased one of those to compare. I purchased the Tartarus V2 about a month ago.
