00:00Fix mouse scrolling jumps with these Kale encoders.
00:03Your mouse scrolls 3 lines then jumps back up like it's possessed?
00:07Yeah, that's not your software.
00:10That's a worn out wheel encoder, and it's a $2 fix nobody tells you about.
00:14I went through the Kale lineup and found the best deals, from single units to 10 packs,
00:19so you can match your exact size and stop scrolling like it's a slot machine.
00:23Starting with the best all-rounder, 5 or 10 pieces of Kale dustproof encoders,
00:28red core, in every size from 5 to 12 millimeters.
00:32Dustproof matters more than you think, that's the whole reason your old one died.
00:36$4 in change for the 5-pack, and with over 4,400 sold at a 4.9 rating,
00:42this is the one people keep rebuying.
00:44If you've got more than one mouse, or you just want spares, buy this one.
00:49Next, the cheapest way in.
00:52Single Kale red core rotary encoder, 1.74-millimeter hole,
00:56direct drop-in for most ALP-style wheels.
00:59$0.39
01:01That's it.
01:034,200 sold, 4.8 stars.
01:06If you only need one and you know your size, this is the smartest buy on the list,
01:10grab two anyway, shipping costs more than the part.
01:14Then there's the tuned version of that same encoder.
01:17Same 1.74-millimeter hole, same sizes, but this one lists its actuation force,
01:2220-40 grams, so you can actually pick how light or firm your scroll clicks feel.
01:27$1.32
01:29If you're picky about wheel feel, this is the swap that makes a cheap mouse feel deliberate.
01:35Now, if you're fixing a batch or you run a small repair bench, here's the bulk option.
01:405 pieces of Kale dustproof red core, 5 through 11 millimeters, 473.
01:46Slightly more per unit than the other 5-pack, but it's the flexibility you're paying for
01:50one order covers basically any mouse that comes through your door.
01:54$3,800 sold, 4.9 rating, so it's not a gamble.
01:59So that's it, match your encoder size, check the hole diameter,
02:03and you're back to smooth scrolling for less than a coffee.
02:06Links to every one of these are in the description below, sorted cheapest first.
