dtctvGee Posted August 9, 2015 Share Posted August 9, 2015 Will corsair make wrist rest for the Strafe? Can we make a petition? Because the Strafe RGB will have a wrist rest. Just wondering about it though.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
log1c76 Posted August 9, 2015 Share Posted August 9, 2015 I wonder if the rgb wrist rest will be compatible with the non-rgb strafe? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dtctvGee Posted August 10, 2015 Author Share Posted August 10, 2015 Sad to say that the Strafe don't have notches for a wrist rest. The wrist rest of the Strafe RGB wont fit the Strafe KB. :sigh!: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corsair Employee Corsair Henry Posted December 23, 2015 Corsair Employee Share Posted December 23, 2015 Wrong. The regular STRAFE has the same notches as the STRAFE RGB. Anything else wouldnt make sense anyway as it would spike up the cost having two different KB bodies for production Sorry but the regular STRAFE does not have the notches on the bottom for a wrist rest like the STRAFE RGB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
terabyte Posted December 24, 2015 Share Posted December 24, 2015 A keyboard built with the wrong bottom part (of a Strafe RGB) maybe? :p: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inheritance Posted December 26, 2015 Share Posted December 26, 2015 the Strafe wrist wrest is pretty bad compared to the K series ones. Those felt like bats, the Strafe RGB one felt like a twig. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inheritance Posted December 26, 2015 Share Posted December 26, 2015 V I have to disagree there. I could try out both at my local electronics store and beside that they have a different pattern on the rubber they felt both the same able typing you could try? Also you know their built differently... The K series is made using very thick plastic with plate on the bottom the Strafe's is made using thinner plastic and doesnt have a plate on tthe bottom.

Inheritance Posted December 26, 2015 Share Posted December 26, 2015 And if one would be made out of metal and the other made out of papier-mâché. As long as it feels the same while typing, where is the problem? You only lay your wrists on it, and not have sword fights with it. The problem is the hinges on mine broke. I need to switch keyboards often so i take the wrist rest off to save space. not to mention they fall off so easily. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corsair Employee Corsair Henry Posted January 4, 2016 Corsair Employee Share Posted January 4, 2016 Well it's a german QWERTZ model. Maybe it has something do with that. Guess I can count me lucky? Hmm... it may be due to a different layout then. :D: Edit: Looks like we have decided to use the plastic chassis on the STRAFE RGB that has notches.

Useful Idiot Posted February 3, 2016 Share Posted February 3, 2016 Hmm... it may be due to a different layout then. I know for fact the NA version does not have notches. :D: (apologies for bumping a 1 month old thread) Actually, I picked up a Corsair Strafe earlier today (due to my K70 being soaked with Mountain Dew :mad: ), and unfortunately I wasn't paying enough attention to notice that the non-RGB version does not have a wrist rest, while the RGB version does. I realllly enjoyed having the wrist rest on my K70. Anyway back on topic, after unboxing and setting up the keyboard, I noticed that it does in fact have notches for a wrist rest exactly like the other user's photo, even though it isn't sold with one (and yes I am in NA). I would realllly like to get one somehow, donno how that would work out though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
terabyte Posted February 3, 2016 Share Posted February 3, 2016 Maybe they started using the same base as the RGB version for the non-RGB one to keep down the costs and produce always the same piece. It would make sense, no point in having 2 different bases for the same keyboard layout. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Inheritance Posted August 2, 2016 Share Posted August 2, 2016 wrong.. mine is NA and have the notches to the wrist rest... i want a WRIST REST well... like they said they dont have them, so they cant send you one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corsair Employee Corsair Henry Posted August 2, 2016 Corsair Employee Share Posted August 2, 2016 We do apologize, but we currently do not have the STRAFE RGB wrist rest as a spare part. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Apples Posted August 9, 2016 Share Posted August 9, 2016 wrong.. mine is NA and have the notches to the wrist rest... i want a WRIST REST The Strafe RGB wrist wrest was a huge mistake. The K series ones are so much better. Use Gorilla Tape. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Riekopo Posted August 15, 2016 Share Posted August 15, 2016 By the way, Corsair should sell other wrist rests like ones made out of foam that don't attach. The detachable ones work well, but they are very "gamery" looking. There should be a more neutral option. It might also be cool to have a more advanced wrist rest that has RGB trim/accent lighting.

Pharticus Posted December 9, 2016 Share Posted December 9, 2016 I bought the strafe as well yesterday, its $100 in stores, and is missing a wrist rest and it has the slots on the bottom. This is not acceptable, this is a premium keyboard price and they dont even give those basic parts? It has the notches on bottom, check my image on here. Then I went to live chat and the person was clueless and tried to sell me http://www.corsair.com/en/corsair-vengeance-fps-wrist-rest And I don't think that works on our keyboard at all..... I just built my gaming PC and used corsair RAM, keyboard, fans, and the long mousepad... spent hundreds on this company, how can it be they cant even give us a wrist rest that costs a few cents to manufacture? Is there any solution to this? I know the RGB version fits on my keyboard, I checked the bottom of both and they are the same as others here noticed as well. http://i.imgur.com/ouciW9J.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
