Keyboard counter
Tap any key to count completed press and release cycles. Compare ten deliberate taps with the received count; held-key repeats are counted separately.
What the test received
Press and release a key to begin.
Received taps
D = down · U = up · R = browser repeat. Gaps use received event times.
Tap any key to see its received press/release cycles.
One press seems to type twice
Completed cycles count received presses followed by releases. Held-key repeats are separate. Compare completed cycles with your deliberate tap count.
Compare with a deliberate tap count
Reset the board. Tap one key ten times, fully releasing between taps, and compare completed cycles with your own count. Avoid holding the key.
Try a plain text editor
Repeat those taps in another app. Review remaps, macros and text-expansion tools if the duplicate happens only in one app or profile.
Check the connection
Compare a direct USB port or a supported wired mode; check wireless charge. Change one condition at a time.
Use the exact model’s repair path
Follow its official cleaning and firmware advice. Corsair provides a specific double-typing support path for the K70 Core; its remedy is not a universal fix for other keyboards.
Retest
After each change, reset and repeat the same ten fully released taps. Auto-repeat during a hold should not increase the completed-cycle count.
If it persists
If duplicate taps persist across apps and connections, ask the manufacturer for service. Do not remove switches unless your model’s instructions explicitly permit it.
