Engi Turrets keybinding?

Hello to any fellow Dwarf Engi's out there!

Regarding your turrets: Do you rely on key-binding or mouse-clicking to deploy them?

I've had mine bound to keys 4-6 since... well.. since back on live. (This is my second return here.)
But I find it annoying that sometimes, in an attempt to hit another nearby key (even a different turret), in the heat of battle, I'm often hitting the wrong one. <sigh>
Stupid fat fingers.

I'm thinking maybe I should bind them to keys I don't care about... and rely solely on mouse-clicking. But my brain then says "Ah, you're throwing out the baby with the bath water!"

Of course you should have everything keybinded, only boomers click spells. It’s a big disadvantage clicking, maybe not as big in this game since the skillceiling is low but I still recommend bindings

I've got three hotbars for my chars that are bound to 1, 2, 3, 4, Q, E, R, T, F, G, C and V with shift and CTRL as modifiers. I think my turrets are on CTRL + E/F/C or something like that since my CTRL hotbar is for the less frequently used spells. Redeploy is on shift + x :)
