[heavy flax]

jeez guess i cant enjoy my keeb during the summer

[deft basalt]

https://tenor.com/view/waits-faster-gif-25014643

[pseudo parrot]

Eh it’s fine university keeps me occupied enough

[runic rain]

If it’s smooth sailing is the first batches of the 80he expected to ship in July?

[buoyant solstice]

July August.

[heavy flax]

pls just get a zoom75 he

[runic rain]

Alright. Thank you

[heavy flax]

clearly u dont like this brand

[obtuse wagon]

keywords being if all goes well

[deft basalt]

Zoom has HE now?

[heavy flax]

how many people funded the 60he founders anyway

[fallen forge]

surely after so many launcher the proccess is somewhat figured out now
right?

[runic rain]

I’m about to make the pre order. The 80he is the keyboard I’ve been waiting for

[buoyant solstice]

Just under 1300

[heavy flax]

yea i know someone said they ran shitty firmware but they do

[deft basalt]

Delays happen

[obtuse wagon]

I mean shit still happens, ontop of logistics being in its nature, controlled chaos

[heavy flax]

jeez were you guys expecting like 10k+

on this

[molten arch]

And for 80HE it was like 3k instant xD

[deft basalt]

Projected growth sounds about right

[buoyant solstice]

https://tenor.com/view/halo-john117-sit-down-and-buckle-up-buckle-up-pablo-schreiber-gif-25531358

[midnight iron]

yeah i think it was already at thousands by the time they sorted out the shipping weight limit to my country and i ordered like 12 minutes into the campaign

[pseudo parrot]

One thing which was very surprising to me, wooting 80he preorder was smoother than preordering an iPhone on launch day directly from apple lol

[runic rain]

Anyone else planning on selling their 60he after receiving the 80he?

[heavy flax]

does wooting ever plan to go in big stores

[obtuse wagon]

What was the TwoHE then ? like 400 peeps

[high scroll]

Fedex is shipping my keyboard. gg

[fallen forge]

imagine expecting to sell 10k units after some guy in reddit comments said that 80he is a mistake and nobody wants it

[compact wasp]

That guy will think about this day..

[heavy flax]

yea im selling mine to my friend for like 120

[alpine lichen]

he clearly is not a thinker ^^

[deft basalt]

My friend was on the flaretech founding iirc

[fallen forge]

i'm thinking about it already, ye

[runic rain]

I’m sure I can find a seller somewhere in Canada

[primal bear]

Will the 80he come with a Take control strap?

[ebon sluice]

I'd love to see this dude do some shots for the 80HE, he could take photos of rocks and people would buy it https://markerchun.com/work

[compact wasp]

He thought he was!

[slow tapir]

if you buy the module instead of pre assembled do you lose any foam padding or anything?

[obtuse wagon]

No there is no strap hole for it, that was a 60HE thing

[pseudo parrot]

Nop

[deft basalt]

Unfortunately no

[molten arch]

Finished my first order before the page loaded the count, got the confirmation 15:07 xD

[heavy flax]

honestly i might not sell it bc i told him abt it now and i dont get the keyboard until august 🤣

[deft basalt]

Nope

[obtuse wagon]

Dont even sell it, keep it as backup just incase anything happens to the 80

[fallen forge]

i'll only sell 60he after being sure 80he fits me better though

[midnight iron]

I actually got in probably earlier than everyone else because I used korean website cheats to know the refresh timing, but then I got stuck with the shipping error lol

[deft basalt]

Going to lick one of these 60s for my friend

[heavy flax]

im not really pro gamer enough to tell im using a wooting when i play so i think im good

[obtuse wagon]

Fair enough

[pseudo parrot]

Oh? Is that an excuse to go grab a zsa voyager as a backup for my moonlander?

[midnight iron]

the timer was off by a bit, you actually had to ping wootings web server and find their server time for the right refresh time

[molten arch]

Had some issues as well, got plenty of red error popups

[midnight iron]

if you refreshed on the web timer you were late by a minute or so

[obtuse wagon]

Yes it is

https://tenor.com/view/salute-captain-america-chris-evans-gif-23752996

[high scroll]

do you guys planning to mod the 80he? it sounds so good tbh if i would add something perhaps new keycaps

[upbeat berry]

as far as im aware our timer was accurate

[runic rain]

Is there a discord discount code available?

[upbeat berry]

just someone bumbled up

and then it counted further than 0

[ebon sluice]

Nah, I never ever want to mod a keyboard again

[midnight iron]

iirc i refresh about a minute earlier according to the server timer at 7am and the web timer was still a minute away

[high scroll]

and why is that

[upbeat berry]

we used it internally to see it go live it and was accurate except the snafu

[heavy flax]

if you count building it, yea,
ill relube the switches with 205g2
add durockv2 stabs
add more layers tape mod
add that aeogel insulator thing that i saw on youtube

[runic rain]

I’m in the same boat lol. The 60he felt and sounded fine before I lubed it

[molten arch]

For me it was accurate

[fallen forge]

did anyone else get an error message about price change during the checkout, btw? initially 80he was 964 zl for me but then gave some popup about price change and went down to 963 zl lol

[heavy flax]

and ceramic caps maybe

[upbeat berry]

prob some rounding or such with discounts or so

[midnight iron]

weird, then I got in a minute earlier somehow

[fallen forge]

discord discount

[ebon sluice]

Bored with it basically

[upbeat berry]

should also not be possible as we switched it just a few seconds before 0

[high scroll]

i tried discord discount and i saved 0 lol

[upbeat berry]

also the website timer isnt relying on our server time

[molten arch]

There u go

[upbeat berry]

it just uses local pc time and a target datetime

[midnight iron]

ah it uses local pc time? That explains a lot

[molten arch]

So his PC is off

[upbeat berry]

with most pcs having a very accurate time due to ntp and such theres no real point in doing a centralized countdown

[midnight iron]

yeah i didn't even look at my pc clock lol - just went off web server time since that's how all the korean sites work

it's so popular in korea they built a website just for it due to kpop ticketing https://time.navyism.com/en/

[inner totem]

Is this common to see the price go up? I'm logged in to my Wooting account from when I purchased the 60HE

[deft basalt]

Yea Brexit

[upbeat berry]

also the server time is prob not accurate at least whatever tool you used to extrapoalte the server time

since its CET

[deft basalt]

Final checkout price is accurate

[molten arch]

Taxes and all the othe stuff

[midnight iron]

it's mostly just showing the timer in your timezone, but based on the servers time

so it converts for you and does a whole alarm thing

[upbeat berry]

just checked real quick and server time is out of sync by less than a second

my own pc time is out of sync by roguhly 0.05seconds

[midnight iron]

looks like my pc was out of sync by a minute lol

[deft basalt]

Smh smh less than a second

[timber crescent]

Do we need a good processor for 8k polling ?

[upbeat berry]

can always check on time.is

[midnight iron]

based on my screenshots from yesterday

[deft basalt]

[molten arch]

Btw. The server still doesnt want to give me my new role, is it a bug, or can i just sit it out? :0

[upbeat berry]

im unsure what you mean

[timber crescent]

where the 77,5% role at

[deft basalt]

They linked and refreshed rewards but its not showing up for them

[upbeat berry]

can you see the order in your account?

[molten arch]

I want to claim my role on the website, but it doesnt give it to me

[timber crescent]

Not yet

[molten arch]

Also took 2h for my order to show up

[grave willow]

when will rappy snappy come to wootility? :D

[deft basalt]

No ETA

Keep posted in #📰│wootility_updates and no it will not

[ebon sluice]

Just waitingf for Baldur_93X to win CS Major all by himself before he approves of the rappy snappy

[frozen flint]

the 80he is just a bigger version of the 60he right all the same specs right?

[deft basalt]

8khz polling and gasket

[molten arch]

True 8k Hz and new switches

[lavish warren]

is 80 in stock?

[deft basalt]

Pre order

[frozen flint]

what are the new switches i didnt see any info on them?

[molten arch]

Not even produced yet

[lavish warren]

ah

[molten arch]

New versions of the L45 and L60

[timid sonnet]

They have made the prototypes tho

[lavish warren]

how long will it take?

[timid sonnet]

Xd

[frozen flint]

the gateron?

[molten arch]

https://wooting.io/post/the-best-keyboard-switches-for-gaming

[deft basalt]

Estimate is for August

[nova nexus]

Welllll some preproduction samples have been made

[crisp quiver]

i think shipping will start this summer

around may-july

[idle depot]

Are the dye sub PBT keycaps just for JIS or English aswell?

[molten arch]

Also Jades

[frozen flint]

lol if i pre order a 80he and want the new gateron jade switches i would have 3 sets of switches

[nova nexus]

https://tenor.com/view/no-bugs-bunny-nope-gif-4095597578532971838

[frozen flint]

cuz they give you a free set of 45 switches with the pre order and the 60 come with it

[nova nexus]

I don't even have one

[calm wyvern]

oof

[strange shard]

gm, just placed my preorder 😄

[frozen flint]

are the gateron jade switches like their own sort of feel like could you compare them the the 60 or 45

[barren shoal]

wooting80 Will the official production start on April 15？

[frozen flint]

i thought the pre order wasnt till july or is that just because of so many orders

[astral vortex]

the estimated delivery on the wooting hub is the estimated time of arrival to you; production obviously has to start well before that

[frozen flint]

oh ok

[crisp quiver]

[midnight iron]

If you wanted the jades you’d end up with 2 sets since you’d be doing module

Module doesn’t come with switches so you’d be doing the one plus one deal

[frozen flint]

so is the the module or the default zinc white

[midnight iron]

Looks like you picked the pre built

[frozen flint]

ok good

i dont mind building it but i didnt want the module

[midnight iron]

How come?

[soft quarry]

Can we get more photos pls

[frozen flint]

i didnt want the module because it comes in the colours i want as default

[jolly tangle]

@midnight iron what case

[frozen flint]

i was thinking about buying the module for the 60he till i realised the 80he would probably be a better choice for me

[jolly tangle]

actually should i ask?

[frozen flint]

because i want a full white keyboard and the 60he didnt have a full white option without going for module but the 80he does plus i think i want the f-keys and the arrow keys because i will be using it for more than just gaming

[midnight iron]

so i guess you're not going jades then?

[astral vortex]

or get both :)

[midnight iron]

i think you end up paying a bit more if you wanted jades and went prebuilt vs. module don't you?

[frozen flint]

probably not off the bat but if i hear good things about it and i see a few tutorials and how to would swap the jade key switches i might get them at a later date

just depends i like to invest iin quality my current keyboard has lasted me like almost 10 years

so iv been looking for a replacement

[quiet atlas]

And Sound Video for the zinc Alloy?

[astral vortex]

I don't believe that exists yet

[quiet atlas]

Strange… does it sound better or worse…

[astral vortex]

hard to say, no video yet so no comparison for us and I believe they said they don't have the final product in hand yet (don't quote me on that)

[frozen flint]

the zinc should sound better than the plastic

[quiet atlas]

Should yes… black or white …

Even no good pictures

[nimble gazelle]

Well I think all the zinc images are renders?

[quiet atlas]

Idk

[astral vortex]

they are

[midnight iron]

there's a few leaked images floating around

white sample top case

[frozen flint]

and the angle is adjustable i think

[nimble gazelle]

Orly

[frozen flint]

from what i read

[astral vortex]

yea, 2, 6, & 10 I believe - Says on the website

[nimble gazelle]

Is there a raw leak?

[midnight iron]

nah, they're still deciding on finish for the zinc

[buoyant solstice]

You can indeed raise the angle with swappable feet.

[frozen flint]

thats the plasic images

[midnight iron]

this was one of the samples, but it's by no means finished or final. Just a random sample calder posted once upon a time

[frozen flint]

that the cables for the zinc boards?

[buoyant solstice]

Yesterday. It was... yesterday. 😄

[midnight iron]

many moons ago in a bygone era

yesterday was $3 million dollars difference in another time

[tropic falcon]

I need code!

[midnight iron]

i am curious to see how polished/not polished they end up going for the raw zinc

[buoyant solstice]

There are no codes. 🙂

[lime falcon]

1230$

[soft quarry]

Mansen can give us more photos

[knotty nacelle]

[tropic falcon]

Users who have purchased 60% have code?

[buoyant solstice]

I most certainly cannot. I am just a poor customer support duck. I don't have any prototypes to show off or leak. That's all on Calder to do 😄

[tropic falcon]

HKD

[buoyant solstice]

Only those who participated in previous founder campaigns for 2HE, 60HE and UwU have a discount code.

[upbeat berry]

"leaked" aka calder posted it and its pinned

[astral vortex]

he will likely manage to show something he's not supposed to soon enough

[vagrant cloak]

Sneak in to calders crib and do it for the bois

[tropic falcon]

i see, only john previous founder have a code?

[midnight iron]

at this stage leak is another word for 'calder came by and posted it in discord' for all features

[tropic falcon]

And, will the Chinese address affect delivery?

Converting to English address is a bit difficult for me

[buoyant solstice]

You can use chinese characters, if it's an address in China. 🙂

[tropic falcon]

love you!

[spark hound]

As an original kickstarter I feel left out :p

[tropic falcon]

you are so sweet

[buoyant solstice]

Those are included as well.

[shut wagon]

WTF !!!

[crisp quiver]

holy

[shut wagon]

already...

[jade vine]

wow

[crisp quiver]

how much did the 60he raise?

[shut wagon]

and we are just 2 days ? in

[midnight iron]

1 day in, it's 24 hours just now

[shut wagon]

OMG

I hope wooting does stay grounded

[buoyant solstice]

250k from about 1300 peeps

[crisp quiver]

i guess the 60he just attracted alot of attention

[drowsy lynx]

I’m glad I bought one right on release. I’m guessing we are a couple of batches in at the moment.

[crisp quiver]

but people would rather have an 80% instead of 60

[shut wagon]

true for me

[storm grove]

yep

[shut wagon]

but at the end I have all of them ^^

[crisp quiver]

same, though i already have the 2HE

[shut wagon]

I gave my son the 60

[midnight iron]

still batch 1, which is the interesting thing

[tropic falcon]

what is "Your name on the 80HE page"?

[midnight iron]

the batches are huge it seems

[tropic falcon]

in keyboard?

[nimble gazelle]

Right, I would have thought after 10k we would move on by now

[real gulch]

so zinc is just a few weeks later?

[molten arch]

Yep, didnt know wooting existed back when i bought my first mech kb

[real gulch]

or the module

[molten arch]

A little sad about that

[nova nexus]

All orders that are not B2B/bulk orders are still in the first batch

I don't think it'll last the weekend though

[olive basin]

Who else got zinc? I’m really looking forward to it

[low spire]

Me

[molten arch]

Me

[olive basin]

How do I link my 80e founder to this account?

[nimble gazelle]

Zinc gang

[drowsy lynx]

That's pretty impressive. You've got some great production partners if they can deliver that!

[crisp quiver]

me as well

[olive basin]

I went white body, black keys

[astral vortex]

I got black zinc

[drowsy lynx]

I've ordered the frost module, white keys

[tropic falcon]

What does it mean? Where will my name appear?

[crisp quiver]

i just went all black, might be some other keycaps later

[buoyant solstice]

On the website.

[astral vortex]

go to the "My Account" in the wooting hub and link your discord account - may need to "refresh rewards" after

[frozen flint]

you think zinc will be similar to the aluminum?

[buoyant solstice]

Heavier.

[frozen flint]

oh nice i want a nice heavy board

[buoyant solstice]

The zinc cases are ~2100g

[frozen flint]

iv been looking at preordering one today

[tropic falcon]

I thought it would be laser engraved on the keyboard shell

[astral vortex]

better for self defense if someone breaks in

[frozen flint]

exactly

[crisp quiver]

zinc is like 3 times denser than aluminium

[olive basin]

got it thnx

[frozen flint]

harder to steal aswell cuz those weak burgalers wont be able to carry it

[crisp quiver]

not sure about the zinc alloy they're using though

[olive basin]

2 kilos? dang

[nova nexus]

Perfect to use as a home defense tool

[astral vortex]

and who said they would be getting away in the first place?

[frozen flint]

exactly

[nimble gazelle]

"You brought a gun to a keyboard fight, you FOOL!"

[crisp quiver]

[gilded horizon]

Mark is there any estimates how long shipping will take if we order one the 1st? Wish it didn’t drop in the middle of the month haha

[frozen flint]

if i pre order now it should come mid july

[nimble gazelle]

• with no delays

[crisp quiver]

surely there won't be delays

[olive basin]

really was hard picking between white or black zinc, but in the end lots of black body keebs out there wanted something different

[nimble gazelle]

SURELY!

[frozen flint]

thats why i said should

btw the delays might actually be the free 45 lekker switches they add to the order

cuz like they have to supply those for the 60he and the 80he and then they also giving out free ones

and they say they wont ship out anything till they have everything in the order in stock

[nova nexus]

By then new orders will be for the second batch, which is expected to finish being manufactured one month after the first batch

[nova nexus]

Switches won't be a bottleneck

[gilded horizon]

Okay that’s not too bad atleast cheers

[frozen flint]

they can switch on you really quick apparently

[tough mauve]

Is there a way to change password for wooting account if I forgot the old one?

[olive basin]

do they have plans to have people like optimum and badseed do reviews/

[nova nexus]

Certainly

[olive basin]

cool looking forward to it

[nova nexus]

There's a password reset feature, yewa

[frozen flint]

i do watch optimum a lot such a good creator and reviewer

[real gulch]

like the whole batch?

[tough mauve]

Where? I can only find the changing with old password.

[tropic falcon]

Will it be canceled if there are not enough people to buy it?

[frozen flint]

no like the order you place

[real gulch]

cuz prebuilt vs module+case seems to have a few weeks of difference

[storm grove]

There are more than enough right now lol

[crisp quiver]

I watched his Keyboard comparisons and it's crazy how far ahead wooting is

[tough mauve]

They raised like 4 mil already and it is the first 24 hours

[nova nexus]

This should not be the case

[crisp quiver]

be it delay, features or user friendly app

[frozen flint]

yeah thats why i was looking at the 60he then i saw the 80he and it just looks like the perfect keyboard to me

[zealous oak]

Raw zinc gang

[real gulch]

ye it also says its on the same batch

[crisp quiver]

yeah, I can't use 60% as a programmer

[astral vortex]

I run 60 for gaming and gonna use 80 for coding

[real gulch]

change from programmer to progamer

[frozen flint]

yeah i want those f-keys

[crisp quiver]

80 has 8khz polling though

[astral vortex]

realistically, a human won't notice the difference. I will see if the 80 seems too big, if not, I will probably use it for all

[olive basin]

yea I like TKL for daily use, but I could see 60 helping in games like COD where I need more desk space

[astral vortex]

I have the 60he rn though and have for a while

[olive basin]

I'm just used to TKL anyway

[frozen flint]

i use a 100% keyboard currently so i dont think ill find it too big

[crisp quiver]

true, won't even be noticeable probably

[olive basin]

you do notice, that extra few inches of pad space sometimes comes in handy when you move mouse hard to left

[sharp wharf]

Will it still be available for order, like say, 1st of April or the next 13 days after that?

[astral vortex]

I meant that the polling rate difference wouldn't be noticeable

[olive basin]

oh ok, yea I doubt it will be, the most latency still between cpu-gpu

[frozen flint]

bruh the amount of times iv hit my mouse on my keyboard is unreal

[fading timber]

o.O how would that work

[astral vortex]

full-size will do that

[olive basin]

@astral vortex I have TKL now and I def hit the keeb a lot

[frozen flint]

like what do i need the numbers repeated for on a keyboard

[olive basin]

low DPI tends to do that

[crisp quiver]

i have enough space, but the 80he just looks like a good upgrade over the 2HE

[nova nexus]

The 80HE will be available for purchase for the next very long time.
Every batch is limited in size (though very very big) but there are unlimited batches

[astral vortex]

yea, I am used to 60 so I may hit it on the 80, have to see - I do have a massive mousepad though but I run 800 dpi and fairly low sens in game

[high current]

Will the raw zinc alloy be available after the founders campaign or is it founders campaign only?

[frozen flint]

do they have a estimate for the launch of it?

[nova nexus]

Not sure. Probably available as a separate product, but that decision hasn't been made.

[olive basin]

I use the razer xl fabric pad or whatever hybrid is

[sharp wharf]

Ooh... And I'm assuming the delivery would be a lot later compared to the ones that ordered earlier?

[agile crown]

yeah, same

[astral vortex]

not sure what mine is called but it's 47" x 21.5"

[frozen flint]

i use photoshop i dont like the idea of not having the f-keys

[crisp quiver]

I also got the US layout over german one just for programming

I think I can live without äöü

[olive basin]

This is my setup but looking forward to using 80he over a normal keeb

[frozen flint]

thats a nice looking keyboard still lol

[fading timber]

still waiting for zinc sound test

[nova nexus]

Every new batch is expected to finish one month after the previous one

[crisp quiver]

zinc will be very quiet I imagine

[astral vortex]

yea, that will definitely give a good bit more desk space. My usable mouse space is a bit bigger than yours so the 80 may not be a problem for gaming, but I'll see given my sens is quite low

[zealous oak]

like more thocky?

[olive basin]

yea I got it on clearance for the alum body, had to buy the parts but its not magnetic or distance actuation like wooting

[gilded horizon]

I want to hear zinc sound test too lol

[olive basin]

this alum is heavy af, but its def not 2 kilos

[zealous oak]

How do you know the sound test is from the pcr?

[astral vortex]

they said that in this chat like a million messages ago

[crisp quiver]

i think similar sound signature to plastic but more muted

[frozen flint]

my current keyboard is a zombie basically XD its almost 10 years old and i think it needed replacing like 5 years ago

[zealous oak]

Interesting, I would like that

[supple ember]

why would metal be more muted?

[crisp quiver]

more mass

[umbral pawn]

Man I wanna buy the keeb but I’m limited D:

[frozen flint]

im not really limited cuz i buy stuff thats built to last normally

so less replacements

[olive basin]

this was a novakeys nk87 alum batch 1, I got it for way cheaper because it was clearance batch

[mossy lance]

Canceled my 60he Order which would have been shipped on the 27.03 to get the 80he in august

[surreal saddle]

bahaha

[nova nexus]

Shoulda gotten both

[astral vortex]

^

[zealous oak]

I'm currently on an alloy origins core

80he is going to be my first lubed keyboard

[frozen flint]

same

[supple ember]

wouldnt say the alumaze sounds more muted compared to the regular 60he

[frozen flint]

it does from the videos iv seen

[fading sentinel]

how long is shipping to the netherlands for a 80he?

[crisp quiver]

zinc is alot denser than aluminium though

[violet dagger]

That white zinc alloy bout to go crazy with the white keycaps

[crisp quiver]

from when it ships less than a week probably

[frozen flint]

depending on the build of the keyboard it could be quite the heavy board

[fading sentinel]

alr

[mossy lance]

[frozen flint]

yeah most shipping is 3-6 days from the warehouse in your area

[zealous oak]

Does it show for you the free travel case in your order?

[violet dagger]

Did they say when they plan on doing zinc sound test

[crisp quiver]

nope

[nova nexus]

It's part of the zinc case product, we're looking at how better to display that to customers in the Hub

[sullen sand]

Any zinc alloy orders include a case I believe

[zealous oak]

I bought the zinc module

[jolly tangle]

whats the warranty of the 80 mark

[violet dagger]

no I don’t see it but sounds like it’s coming with

[nova nexus]

4 years excluding LEDs

[jolly tangle]

nicee

[high current]

alright im in

[nova nexus]

Let me retype that without the edited tag, for posterity

[fossil tulip]

What is different from the V2 and the OG Lekkers

[high current]

put in order for a raw zinc alloy :3

[nova nexus]

4 years excluding LEDs

[frozen flint]

isnt the full warranty for the default keyboard only 2 years but the module is 4?

[buoyant solstice]

That's the LEDs.

[nova nexus]

Prebuilt and module have the same warranty policy

[buoyant solstice]

2HE has 2 years in total.
60HE, UwU and 80HE are all 4/2 🙂

[shell heath]

any sound test but with zinc case?

[buoyant solstice]

Not yet

[shell heath]

[analog grail]

Sound & better stability (less wobble)

Maybe more changes that haven’t been outlined yet

[fossil tulip]

Are those better or the Jades then?

[violet dagger]

Hopefully soon

[shell heath]

when the audio is ready you can see it here, isn't it to check it every day xd?

[analog grail]

If the wobble is the same or less than Jades, then the sound will very much be down to personal preference

[mossy lance]

has the 80he hot swapable Switches ?

[buoyant solstice]

All of our keyboards are hotswappable - With compatible Hall Effect based switches.

[astral vortex]

not using dark mode is a crime

[fossil tulip]

Last q
Is there any performance difference between the assembled version and the module?

[shell heath]

how i change?

[analog grail]

Jades also have a 3.5mm total travel distance vs lekker 4mm. So if you prefer a shorter key press to bottom out that’s something to consider.

[buoyant solstice]

Zero. One is preassembled, the other you do yourself.

[astral vortex]

I use Dark Reader on chrome as an extension - I believe it works on most browsers

[rain zodiac]

do we know when reviewers will be putting out videos? or are they getting their units through same time as everyone

[fossil tulip]

Ty boss for the clarification

[river wharf]

Hello everyone, first time wooting future owner here,
is the tax separate from the import tax?

[zealous oak]

is it compatible with 3 pin switches only or also 5 pin?

[buoyant solstice]

Neither

[shell heath]

nah dark reader in amazon is trash thats why i dont use it the rest is good but amazon thing gives me too much tick

[astral vortex]

you can white/blacklist certain websites - I just have it on by default and turn it off for websites it doesn't work well on

[tough mauve]

Yo how do I reset my password if I forgot it?

[astral vortex]

it will keep track of this and keep it off until you turn it back on for that particular website

[buoyant solstice]

There's an option for it on the hub.

[tough mauve]

Where exactly? When I login?

[buoyant solstice]

Yes.

https://hub.wooting.io/auth/login?next=%2Fmy%2Faccount

[zealous oak]

only he switches then

[lucid karma]

Mansen I am disappointed you didn’t pre order an 80 he 😔

[buoyant solstice]

Compatible* HE switches, yes.

[zealous oak]

Thanks

[sullen sand]

Uh, looks like the tax is already paid so you shouldn't receive any import charge when receiving the product, although I'm not entirely sure how japan works with that... in most countries as this tax is paid it bypasses the need for a customs admin fee etc.

[buoyant solstice]

I'm waiting for everyone at Wooting to place their orders, so I can place one that no one picked - Cover more ground with some good CS photos for ... well CS 😄

[river wharf]

Thank you, I chose Fedex and never had to pay import taxes to jp. Fingers crossed it will be the same.

[lucid karma]

Ah fair

I had my order placed like two minutes after launch

Though I was a bit slow with discount codes

I wonder can you see which number I was? Wonder how many people got it before me lmao

[sullen sand]

A lot of retailers now includes the taxes in the bill as you are paying, you would normally only pay these import charges if the taxes are not paid

[tough mauve]

Thx

[zealous oak]

all of you guys that have tried l45 and l60 which do you prefer

[buoyant solstice]

60s for sure.

[sullen sand]

60 for me but it's personal preference

[real gulch]

ye 45s can be a bit too light for most people

[astral vortex]

I personally prefer 45s

[river wharf]

I looked up, worst case I'd have to pay roughly 15 usd. Seems fine to me

[lucid karma]

45 for me

[sullen sand]

Yeah, import charges in general for small orders like this is basically your country's sales tax + admin fee

[zealous oak]

Thanks all for the answers 👍

[elfin dock]

I bought a keyboard with 30g switches as a noob and I regret it instantly. Far too light and sensitive.

I had no frame of reference.

[light pollen]

I still can not check my order status on the wooting website.

still gives me this Failed to communicate with API Error

[buoyant solstice]

Send us an email at [e-mail] then

[zealous oak]

it took some time for me yesterday, it will appear

[olive egret]

is there zinc typing audio available yet?

[light pollen]

ok!

[pastel dust]

What is discord role? Does it mean anything?

[buoyant solstice]

Purely for cosmetic bragging rights

[pastel dust]

😂

[verbal solar]

idk is now the wooting 80he better oder apex pro tkl 2023 like what could look cooler

[buoyant solstice]

https://tenor.com/view/preference-glarses-mx-brown-cherry-mx-brown-keyboard-gif-21044520

[sullen sand]

Wooting >

[river wharf]

the dealbreaker of the apex for me was the non hotswappable switches

[river river]

They aren't even in the same league lol

[queen vigil]

will all the preorders ship the same batch or is there a chance some orders will be delayed to a later batch depending on how many orders there are?

[sullen sand]

Well tbh it's not as if you can use many switches on Wooting keyboards

[midnight iron]

the funniest part is it's hot swappable but they soldered them in lol

[modest stone]

😂

[buoyant solstice]

Each batch has a finite number of keyboards. Once full, a new batch is opened for any future orders - with a later date

[midnight iron]

they literally made the hot swappable feature not swappable for no reason

[light pollen]

I just send email to yall !

[queen vigil]

alr thanks

[sullen sand]

I'm surprised the first batch isn't finished yet

[light pollen]

i think it might be the problem i placed an order for China?

[verbal solar]

ok but how does the zinc alloy case looks like with the color raw is it shiny or what ahha

[sullen sand]

You can go to the website and look at the cases

[modest stone]

国内下单可以正常看到

[midnight iron]

i wouldn't necessarily go by that image since it's render

[light pollen]

@modest stone 我在美国下的中国的单。。。哈哈

[olive egret]

I hate to be that guy, but will a video with alloy's colors and a typing test for the case become available during the founder campaign, or is it currently not planned?

[buoyant solstice]

Yes.

[verbal solar]

yeah but it looks much different when

[regal pilot]

Ordered that raw zinc. Lessgo

[verbal solar]

haha

[river river]

will probably be semi-gloss, close to matte

[safe tundra]

Anyone know how many hours it was when the counter rolled over 10k?

[verbal solar]

the difference of this two pictures idk

[zealous oak]

I wish it looks like this when in reality

[verbal solar]

yeah i wish too haha

[zealous oak]

always love the shiny metal look

[sullen sand]

I mean.. it's raw zinc alloy so I'd assume it will be shiny

I don't think they are doing any finishing to it

[safe tundra]

Toasty! No don't!! Zinc has a very low melting point!

[real gulch]

😜

[verbal solar]

but will it look like that in this picture

[knotty remnant]

I literally came here to ask this, I mean if it's literally raw zinc it's going to corrode and look like of greyish blegh after a while.

[zealous oak]

https://tenor.com/view/aesthetic-liquid-metal-trippy-gif-13574390

[buoyant solstice]

It's an alloy, and it's coated against oxidizing.

[safe tundra]

It's an alloy of zinc.

[steady escarp]

I wa wondering why everyone was a new color today

guess new rewards dropped, nice

[verbal solar]

l60 or l45

[safe tundra]

@buoyant solstice was it less than 24 hours to hit 10k?

[knotty remnant]

Gotcha. I'll wait a little bit for more details to see how they coat it and if they reveal what alloy it is.

[buoyant solstice]

Not sure why you thought I'd be the one to know that.

[safe tundra]

I mean..... You are kind of a Guru in here..... why NOT ask you?

[real gulch]

[buoyant solstice]

It was in the middle of the night when that would have happened here.

[bright sand]

Is there already a sound check? I want to know the difference of the pcr plastic or zinc alloy.. For now I guess I want the zinc Alloy.

[winter coral]

Yeah hard to tell- got both now for testing.

[tropic falcon]

How to determine which batch of goods you shipped by checking the order number?

[buoyant solstice]

https://hub.wooting.io/my/account

[slow tapir]

if you get the case and module do you get rubber padding and such?

[buoyant solstice]

You get everything - you just need to assemble the board yourself.

[flint junco]

no analog mode is a hard pass for the apex pro

[naive adder]

😝

[civic goblet]

[icy cosmos]

The question is never what you need to have. It’s what makes you feeling good to have 😉

[icy cosmos]

I imagine it’s like Terminator T1000

[sleek pelican]

hey

[timid abyss]

Ghost gang

👻

[sleek pelican]

zinc gang

[molten spindle]

Test

[flint junco]

plastic gang

[zealous oak]

Raw zinc gang

[frigid oracle]

module gang?

[buoyant sail]

i order 2 80HE can i get role for second account?

[flint junco]

why thumbs down plastic?

[zealous oak]

🤣

[muted relic]

dont worry i got you jay. plastic crew checkin in

it was already really expensive for me heh, never spent so much on a keyboard before

[real gulch]

it will be worth it

[flint junco]

only the sky is the limit.. keyboards can get very expensive if you want

[frigid oracle]

how do I get the rest of 22.5% of the discord role? should I buy the wrist wrest?

[muted relic]

im upgrading from a Leopold with cherry reds that I've used for over 10 years
the keys are shiny on it from so much use lol

[zealous oak]

that's full exploitation there, which is good

[flint junco]

i still use the wooting one... only the A key is worn-out 🤔

[frozen flint]

oh would you look at that

[muted relic]

after reading the product page for the wrist rest, they managed to convince me and i got one with my order, they give you a few dollars off the price if you buy it with your keyboard. do note that they have a specific 80HE wrist rest available when you're in the order process
https://wooting.io/product/wooting-wrist-rest

[frozen flint]

i might have made an oopsie and ordered a 80he ;3 wonder when ill get it

[muted relic]

in probably like 20 mins it should update with an estimated delivery time

[frigid oracle]

the wrist wrest is good, I have it for the 60he and I love it. I meant it more as a joke because I pre ordered the 80he yesterday but my role says im 77.5% of a founder lol

[muted relic]

ahhh 😁

[frozen flint]

yeah i was hoping for it to be deliverd is 15 mins actually

[flint junco]

nah it refers to 80HE not be 80% but 77.5%

[molten spindle]

So I didn't get my Discord role yet. Is there a team member that can help me or should I fill in the support form on the website?

I ordered the minute it was available, linked my Discord, refreshed rewards, but nothing yet

[exotic schooner]

in my case, until i coudln't see my order here, i wasn't able to get the title. Until it did appear here, refresh worked. https://hub.wooting.io/my/orders

[steady escarp]

https://i.imgur.com/ljFkRAP.png

is the wooting site broken? total is 173 + 9.95, then goes down to 155 somehow?

then in cart it goes down to 145

[winter coral]

Plastic and zinc Gang. bought Module with 2 cases

[zealous oak]

I went with raw zinc but if I would have chosen plastic I would have chose ghost pcr as I like the look of it

[astral vortex]

that's what I did as well

[verbal solar]

i am crying i am broke now i bought it

[astral vortex]

was only an extra $10 for the ghost case

[zealous oak]

Broke but happy in several months when you get it

[verbal solar]

hhaha

yeah maybe i will forget it and get suprised haha

[sullen sand]

Is your address entered? 😅

[steady escarp]

not yet

confused af about it cuz pricing is weird

[buoyant solstice]

Brexit VAT calculation. The price shown on the final page of checkout is correct.

[steady escarp]

ty mr mansen ily

[sullen sand]

Try entering your address, the price will update

[bright sand]

But which one makes me feel good is the question 😋

And do I want the gateron jade switch. Don’t know…
I’m now at €379,97.

Spring cleaning sale on Novelkeys , Buy 2 Get 1 Free

[zealous oak]

how so?

I thought it added 40 if you added another extra case

[verbal solar]

470€ broke as f***

[zealous oak]

You can add an extra plastic case apparently for 10 extra

[buoyant solstice]

No?

[verbal solar]

Already bought it 🗿😭

[zealous oak]

Can I modify my order to add that?

And most important, will it change my estimated delivery?

[buoyant solstice]

There is no 10 buck case option. Not sure what gave you that idea.

[zealous oak]

some people said that some meesages ago

[zealous oak]

Over here

[bright sand]

Where did you find that wrist rest!? Didn’t see that one for the 80he

[fathom flame]

[buoyant solstice]

It's recommended as an add-on during checkout.

[verbal solar]

I don’t know on the phone it didn‘t showed me but on the pc yes

[verbal solar]

Yeah but if u choose one of them u can’t choose both at the same time

[astral vortex]

I did it as another item and it let me get the ghost case alongside my full module (with zinc case) for only $10 more

[sullen sand]

I guess you can order a alloy case separately, but then you don't get a carry case

[verbal solar]

Does anyone know any clean mouspads

[buoyant solstice]

What's your order number? I'll have to look into what's happening here.

[sullen sand]

Maybe that's what they are referring to

[verbal solar]

Wait is the carry case included?

[buoyant solstice]

Travel case is a freebie with every zinc case.

[sullen sand]

Ah then....

[verbal solar]

Oh lol ididn‘t know haha

[sullen sand]

You can just order the module with a ghost case then add a zinc case

[winter coral]

Tony is Aware of it, i Spoke with him yesterday directly @buoyant solstice

[sullen sand]

The ghost case is $10 then

[buoyant solstice]

I see.

[zealous oak]

With zinc module yes

[steep path]

is rappy snappy a joke or is it a real thing lol

[astral vortex]

If you want to add me on discord, I was going to send you the order number as well as how I did it + why I think it is happening. I originally thought it may be intended, but, if not, I don't want to tell others how to do it

[verbal solar]

Is real

[bright sand]

Found it thanks! But now I’m at 467,97 🙈

Didn’t it come with a cable?

[buoyant solstice]

No need to DM me. You can share order numbers safely publicly.

[astral vortex]

yea, I know, just didn't want to share the rest publicly is all

[buoyant solstice]

Yes. Stock cable with every keyboard.

The detachable cable is a fancy add-on.

[astral vortex]

my order number is US63948A though

[buoyant solstice]

Cheers

[sullen sand]

There is clearly a $9.25 case option

[winter coral]

Can you give mine aswell- happened in laggy shop condition - still possible

[astral vortex]

it's just cause it is checking if the module exists as a part of the order and then adds in the normal discount, but it doesn't account for the possiblity of numerous cases and only one module

[steep path]

yeah the PCR case is super cheap with the module setup option

[plain atlas]

i have that too when I picked the module

[steep path]

i got the pcr with my module bundle and then got the zinc separately lol

and then yolo'd and got another pcr, got the two transluscent and the white zinc

[winter coral]

@buoyant solstice #1217850231287185438 message

[steep path]

i want all of them because impulse control but had to reign it in a little bit

[zealous oak]

Yep, it's definitely there. But I think they will cancel that, as it was not intended

[buoyant solstice]

Different issue. We're aware and have fixed that one internally. 🙂

[verbal solar]

😂😭

[sullen sand]

In fact buying all the items separate is cheaper than buying it built, I can buy either a zinc alloy pre built 80HE for 335 euro including delivery, or buy the module and 2 cases for 309 including delivery

[winter coral]

Na that timestamp i talked with Tony etc. deleted my poste @buoyant solstice

[steep path]

it didn't give me a discount on the second case 😭

[astral vortex]

It's not as easy as fixing the free switch pack issue. I have already paid the $10 for the case, even though it isn't intended.

[proper dew]

test

[buoyant solstice]

Keep the lack of switches in mind.

[proper dew]

the role still hasn't been added to my account roughly 24 hours later

[winter coral]

You can call me i show you how i can do it

[verbal solar]

Does anyone know a good mousepad

[steep path]

you... have the role

[sullen sand]

Altho... you do get 90 free switches 😅

[proper dew]

I am talking about a different role here

[zealous oak]

Yep, they would have to do a lot of refunds given the circumstances

[compact wasp]

90 free switches if you buy a pack, 1 + 1 free

[buoyant solstice]

You don't get free switches, if you don't buy switches.

[sullen sand]

Ohh, maybe those switches are left over from previous order lol

[buoyant solstice]

Those switches are going to vanish from your order.

[sullen sand]

Fair

[astral vortex]

Either that, or request to charge an extra $10 (given that it can be done for only $10 more in a way that I believe is intended) - they can't just straight up charge an extra $10 though, obviously

[proper dew]

I'm assuming that 10 dollar plastic case is not intended?

[astral vortex]

no, doesn't seem so

[winter coral]

They are aware of it since yesterday 1hour after start

[astral vortex]

I believe it is intended to be $10 IF purchased alongside a module, but it should not be able to be added onto a full module (including case) as a secondary case for only $10

[winter coral]

but I hold my mouth that they can fix it

[astral vortex]

depending how it is set up, it shouldn't be difficult to fix

[winter coral]

so be patient

[steep path]

yeah when I ordered, my extra cases add-on were not discounted, only the original one so it might already be resolved

[gilded horizon]

Is there any build guide out for the PCB version of the 80he?

[buoyant solstice]

Hello Time Traveller - As the keyboards have not yet been manufactured at this point in the time continuum, build guides do not yet exist.

[bright sand]

Ready to place my order. Do I forget something? First time of buying a keyboard in this category.

[sullen sand]

I wouldn't worry, should be fairly simple

[gilded horizon]

Oh well I didn’t know but I guess the wooting people already has it how else could they do the sound tests haha

I see :p

[winter coral]

mansen maybe you want to see my dm one second

[lime aspen]

Even with module?

[winter coral]

you can delete me afterwards

[buoyant solstice]

Oh nevermind. We changed that behaviour. Ignore me 😄

[compact wasp]

Aren’t you buying lubricant twice? In the bundle and solo?

[polar stirrup]

So we cant have discount on both zinc and plastic only 1 of 2 cases?

[compact wasp]

Man can’t have enough lube

[polar stirrup]

Bummer

[bright sand]

Oh yes you where right! Thanks 😊

[shut wagon]

maaaannn, ich habe mein wrist rest vergessen..... I forgot my wrist rest.....

[compact wasp]

It was kinda hard to find tho, I had 80he in the cart and thought that I saw it somewhere but couldn’t find it on the website haha

[winter coral]

@buoyant solstice I want to show you something or at least describe you in detail. shall I send a Email to support and you can read it directly when I give is specific title?

[rugged pasture]

yeah its not listed undet the wrist rest with the rest of them but a different product

[compact wasp]

I’m kinda excited how if feels, I’m starting to hate my razer wristwrest

[winter coral]

I think you can do another order and a merge?

[glass rock]

https://wooting.io/product/wooting-wrist-rest-80he

[shut wagon]

maybe ?!

[winter coral]

Yeah I think so, ask mansen for process

[jolly tangle]

no mail [e-mail]

[vapid storm]

no mail

[fallen epoch]

So i dont got mail?

[supple ember]

plastic and zinc case?

[timber crescent]

when buying module they gave us lubricant for free??

[zealous oak]

No

[spark monolith]

If a key has no actuation point set, what is the default value?

[hearty sky]

2 IG

[timid abyss]

uhhh I know it says not all options may be available but somewhere down the line I COULD theoretically upgrade to a zinc case right?

[silk crystal]

hu

[spark monolith]

you sure?

[hearty sky]

Not really

[spark monolith]

Seems like the default is 1.2mm?

[bright sand]

One more question 🙈 Which one do I need for the Netherlands. Maybe I have the wrong one chosen…

[jolly tangle]

wat?

[bright sand]

Nu heb ik ansi gekozen. En in mijn winkelmand zitten. Maar bedenk mij opeens dat dit de verkeerde is. Nu twijfel ik welke ik wel moet hebben 😅

[jolly tangle]

thats up to you. however I would pick ansi any day

[zealous oak]

I'm from EU and I choose ANSI as well, I prefer that layout

[lime aspen]

Im Canadian and speak only English so picking iso would just be weird

[buoyant solstice]

ISO has UK English

[jolly tangle]

mansen

[lime aspen]

Iso still looks stupid

[buoyant solstice]

arden

[shell heath]

Wooting when they finish the capaign

[jolly tangle]

it has been said before that take control keycaps will eventually be iso. however is that also the case already for the upcomming new colors

[jolly tangle]

aside from more keycap choises I cant live without a big left shift key

[cedar hound]

According to google, ANSI should be the correct layout for Dutch people

[buoyant solstice]

It's definitely the most common one.

[lime aspen]

Yeah I just hate the tiny shift + think the enter key looks ugly

[winter coral]

Wrong Country?

[buoyant solstice]

Two things are a guarantee no matter where you live on the planet. Death...and taxmen 😄

[jolly tangle]

@buoyant solstice Did you see my question above the big cash pile

[celest laurel]

YOU GUYS ROCK

[cedar hound]

It should be „an ultra“

[lime aspen]

Is there an ETA for white take control keycaps

[celest laurel]

rappy snappy, too

[timid abyss]

@buoyant solstice I know it says not all options may be available but somewhere down the line I COULD theoretically upgrade to a zinc case right?

[steady escarp]

rappy snappy is such a funny name

[lime aspen]

Better be what it's called when it releases

[buoyant solstice]

Yes.

[brittle orbit]

Do you guys know if lekker v2 switches will be compatible with wootng 60he?

[steady escarp]

Wait are some options going away or something?

[buoyant solstice]

That is 100% the real name for it ong no cap fax no printer.

[buoyant solstice]

They will be.

[gray token]

Im happy

[steady escarp]

btw can we edit orders ourselves? Or do we have to email?

[winter coral]

Mail

[zealous oak]

Walder approves

[dry tundra]

Hello wooting community, I want to know if the wooting he80 will Nrko/ no ghost and spill resistant?
I didn't find the info on the page of the wooting80

[flint junco]

they should change the name of the 80HE to 77.5HE on april 1st

[buoyant solstice]

Yes to both.

[dry tundra]

Thanks Mansen

[nova nexus]

Announce on April 1st that we're going to redesign it to be a 75%

[arctic ice]

That is the worst nowaday slang sentence ive ever heard from anyone till this day no cap

[soft quarry]

@nova nexus can we get more photos

[nova nexus]

Like, feet pictures or?

[spark hound]

Yes

[soft quarry]

you can include them too why not lol

[hybrid birch]

Is gasket mount something that will be applied to 60HE as well?

[safe tundra]

No

[tranquil void]

Remember when
ITS NOT A TKL NOONE WILL BUY THIS PRODUCT

because uh...

lol

[fallen epoch]

I was gonna buy anyway, im addicted

[winter coral]

I would Like 75% more…but well you have to live with it 😏

[fallen epoch]

Woot to the sun

[idle depot]

Honestly wonder what’s next for wooting when 80he is done 👀

[buoyant solstice]

It is not something we've announced any plans for - it requires a complete rework of the switch plate and cases. But if you have a 60HE, there's a "rubber band" mod, which does something similar to gasket mounting.

See #🪛│modding_faq

[opaque dagger]

@buoyant solstice if i ordered already, is it possible to change the option of the zinc? Or do i need to cancel and re order

[nova nexus]

Cancel+reorder is the fastest and easiest

[opaque dagger]

But charges and refund will impact me a lot

Because of currency rate and dont want to do that

[nova nexus]

We will be doing order modifications for people where we can, but those are low priority relative to other ticket types so if you don't mind waiting a bit, that's fine

[opaque dagger]

Do i need to email or something?

[nova nexus]

Yes, [e-mail]

[opaque dagger]

Thanks

Add on too?

[hidden field]

Your Rewards
80HE but only got 77.5% LMAO

[quiet atlas]

can we changen the travewl case vs a Wooting wrist rest 80HE?

[dapper tide]

I heard someone say we get a free travel case included with zinc cases

Apparently it’s Hidden

[buoyant solstice]

Correct

[idle depot]

77.5% is the form factor lol

[buoyant solstice]

It won't appear as a distinct item, but it is included with all zinc cases.

[narrow smelt]

do we have good photos of the clear?

[narrow smelt]

ooooooo

worth the little extra over the ghost?

i feel like it might be haha

[dapper tide]

How the

[fallen epoch]

Yes

[midnight iron]

i like the ghost a little more but mostly because i have keycaps that match lol

i think the frost clear + xray pbtfans would be a goated combo

[compact wasp]

You also got a good pic of the ghost variant?

[midnight iron]

but no speckles - this photo is pre speckles change

[compact wasp]

Yeah I know, was debating between ghost and just black, but chose black cuz people said the store picture was darker than irl (I liked the store picture more tho)

[timid abyss]

wait ghost has speckles?

[midnight iron]

nah they removed the speckles

[timid abyss]

thank god

[compact wasp]

The old version had, they removed them

[timber crescent]

This is frost ?

[midnight iron]

the old prototypes had speckles but the church of the no speckles won victory

[midnight iron]

yeah

[timber crescent]

It looks incredible for a white build

[narrow smelt]

as it was fortold

[timber crescent]

I buyed the frost whitout knowing how it will be but now I’m sure it was worth it

[timid abyss]

so good without speckles imo

[midnight iron]

yeah i saw at least one person was planning on the frost + xray pairing once it's out

[timber crescent]

Dayum

[compact wasp]

Damm those look nice!

[safe tundra]

clean

[timber crescent]

This with white Rgb is gonna be sick

This is my current keyboard

It’s gonna be a huge improvement 💀

[compact wasp]

Did your led on B die? Or why is it still red

[narrow smelt]

do ppl know what cable comes with it?

[timber crescent]

Yea I think he died cause he’s 6 years old

[safe tundra]

USB c - USB c plus USB A adapter

[narrow smelt]

is it the coiled on they sell?

[compact wasp]

Braided cable (Calder said/leaked the colors yesterday?) but I forgot usb-c usb-c with adapter

[mint sequoia]

The 80he comes with a regular uncoiled cable. The coiled cable they sell can be purchased.

[narrow smelt]

ahh ty

[safe tundra]

no. Just a more regular one

[zealous oak]

What are those keycaps called? Looks stunning

[idle depot]

YOO what set is that

[steady escarp]

Is this the same as frost?

[midnight iron]

pbtfans xray

@idle depot

[midnight iron]

yeah that's frost, just with a good rl photo instead of the render

[steady escarp]

ok yeah thought so, I really like the look wit hteh white caps which is why I ended up grabbing the frost and ghost. Going to switch he look up when I get bored of one

[winter coral]

But not final

Will either stay with ghost or will change for frost when pictures are final

[zealous oak]

Thanks

[heavy flax]

is there anything weird about the layout or can i just purchase any basic keycap set

[icy charm]

About any set should work fine

[winged light]

can u clarify what rappy snappy means?

[zealous oak]

It's pretty well explained in there, wooting 80he section of the web

[compact wasp]

They even have a vid showcasing how it works!

On the 80he page

[neon cape]

is the frost case only avaliable with the module only just wondering?

[buoyant solstice]

Calder explains it in detail in the 80HE announcement video

[buoyant solstice]

Two cases are module only.

[winged light]

i never really looked into the 80HE because i have no interest in it. thats why i have no clue what rappy snappy is

[winged light]

who's calder?

[timid abyss]

one of the founders

[winged light]

why was his name casually dropped like most people know him

[timid abyss]

because hes a wooting founder

[pseudo parrot]

I mean he is in a lot of wooting videos, kinda unavoidable if you watch those haha

[glass rock]

Hes like the Tom Cruise of the MK community...

[winged light]

so? i dont know the razer/logitech etc founders lol

[turbid void]

He does his own stunts

[glass rock]

Thats because the logitech and razer founders don't care about you.

[zealous oak]

Pretty different, I know him but not logitech's or any other keyboard brands CEOs

[winged light]

not false 💀

[nova nexus]

[river wharf]

how would you set up your rappy snappy? in pairs of WS and AD or WASD

[versed agate]

Rappy Snappy.. Does it work on FPS games like Warzone?

[glass rock]

Itll work on any game that uses a keyboard...

[versed agate]

Awesome

[sullen sand]

In pairs I assume

[river wharf]

that makes more sense yeah

[dense ridge]

is the zinc alloy black case anodized?

[sullen sand]

Don't think it's out on the software yet

[timid abyss]

definitely not a cult KEKW

[sullen sand]

But I don't use the beta software

[river wharf]

also I just realized, the tax that i was chargerd were ( item price + shipping ) * 10%, didn't know shipping was part of the tax

[glass rock]

Its in the beta software right now I believe.

[versed agate]

Do you guys remember when Razer tried to compare their keyboard to Whootings

[mild grove]

Best Pudding keycaps out there ?

[sullen sand]

It's coated against oxidising

[glass rock]

Every company does that with successful products in a market they dominated first.

[humble cargo]

ss prismcaps imo

[polar stirrup]

cerakeys

[proper dew]

The F1234 keys on the 80 are alligned exactly with the qwert keys?

[sullen sand]

None, awful

jk

[humble cargo]

am guessing the competitors are about the same quality tho tbh, prism just has the nicest font imo

[mild grove]

What do you prefer ?

[sullen sand]

Anything but pudding but that's personal preference 😅

[proper dew]

W thank you kind sir

[glass rock]

Guys, use your eyeballs and most of your questions will be answered.

[proper dew]

but the angles could be differ to what it would be inr eality

[digital kestrel]

Im literally crying 🤣🤣🤣

Amount: 69 🤣

[low token]

That's cheap

Buy 69 for meme

[timid abyss]

might buy to resell KEKW

[dense ridge]

@sullen sandyes but that black color for example.. is it painted?

[digital kestrel]

Nocap if I could I would 🤣

[glass rock]

Considering the 60he has a bunch of solds on ebay for 300 you might not be wrong lmao.

[sullen sand]

I'm unsure how they get the colour on it, sorry

[swift warren]

Anyone know if the coiled cable discount is applicable to the 80he?

[glass rock]

You answered your own question....

[swift warren]

I tried adding it to my cart but I didn’t see a discount

[glass rock]

Read the image and email them.

Make suer youre logged into the account you have an order with already, and add the cable to your cart, if there is not discount code when you think there should be one then email them.

[high scroll]

is there known date for the start of the mass production?

[nova nexus]

Adding a detachable cable to your cart that also has a 80HE in it will result in the cable getting a 10% discount

[swift warren]

Yeah I am logged in, I guess I need to email

[swift warren]

Do you know if it’s possible to get it added to my existing order?

[glass rock]

Yes, I had to do the same after I forgot to add my wrist rest.

[zealous oak]

how long is the cable that comes with it?

[buoyant solstice]

6ft

[nova nexus]

You may be able to do it via the Wooting hub itself, otherwise shoot us an email

[zealous oak]

Thanks both

[versed wagon]

where do you receive the role when u preordered it? :D

[compact wasp]

linking discord to wooting hub

[versed wagon]

ty

[dense ridge]

@nova nexusdo u know about the coating of zinc alloy cases? are they painted ? or anodized? or its not decided yet?

[arctic ice]

Okey i got a super problem now I wanted to swap my payment method so i tried the contact us and drop down cancel order . Wrote something then i figured out i dont need to swap anything after talking with my accountant. Now I sent a new contact us thingy dropdown cancel order and said abprt the previous message and also replied to the actual message from my email. Is this an epic fail or what someone save me and my order pls
If they see the first message then cancel it before seeing my panic abort messages

[buoyant solstice]

We've had worse believe me. I regularly merge five or more tickets from people who ask to cancel, then change their mind four times in the span of an evening.

[umbral pawn]

Hey Mansen did you check my email yet? x3

[buoyant solstice]

Unfortunately not. I am off duty till Monday as of a few hours ago.
Then back to answering the mountain of tickets 😄

[nova nexus]

Black and white are painted, raw will probably be coated with something. For all three it has not been finalized

[grizzled needle]

Good Luck dude 🙂

[umbral pawn]

So I guess I’m out of luck not being in batch 1 ?

[nova nexus]

There's only a few thousand tickets, nothing to worry about 🫠

[proper dew]

how much do I get paid an hour to help

im joking

[humble cargo]

god forbid thinking things through before placing an order

[nova nexus]

https://wooting.io/careers

[grizzled needle]

1 keycap/9hours

[arctic ice]

🤣i never changed my mind i just tried reordering with my vusiness account and it declined every payment method accountant told me an alternative way i can jsut tranfer funds against invoice, so is it saveable?

[glass rock]

Well, id assume it would be by when you placed your order. So if you didnt place it soon enough then why would you get special privledges?

[deft basalt]

@buoyant solstice Is there anyway to verify myself if I lost my old account email?

[nova nexus]

We only offer the payment methods shown during checkout

[buoyant solstice]

Sounds like something we'd need to solve via an email to [e-mail]

[umbral pawn]

I couldn’t place an order because of a weight limit and restricted shipping options

Tried ordering 2 keyboards but faced with an error :/

[deft basalt]

Ye ye

[arctic ice]

Yea i meant is my previous order gonna be intact i already got an invoice from it.
After thos 3 tickets i mean to cancel the cancellation 🤣

[umbral pawn]

I just needed a solution and just click on Buy

[nova nexus]

If two keyboards exceeds the weight limit for your country, then you'll have to order them 1 at a time

[buoyant solstice]

What Mark said. I did actually talk to him about your situation in... Israel was it?

[umbral pawn]

I don’t want to use PostNL though, I asked if it’s possible to give me UPS/Fedex etc options

[nova nexus]

It's not

[umbral pawn]

Yes, if I knew it beforehand I’d be bummed out but I’d order them both in 2 separate orders :/

[umbral pawn]

Why not? 😮

[nimble gazelle]

If I want to change my order to a module instead of prebuilt do I just make a new order and submit a ticket to cancel the old one?

[arctic ice]

So it it saveable? My order gonna be in place as it is?

[nova nexus]

Quickest is to place a new order and have us cancel+refund the original

[umbral pawn]

I know that PostNL will be super slow for me, if the keeb gets shipped to me I’ll prolly receive it in 30-60 days :/

[glass rock]

Brother. Its friday and almost the end of the day, they have 1000s of tickets. They will get to you eventually. Give them a break, they just launched a new campaign and are super busy im sure.

[umbral pawn]

Already had these experiences with local post offices, mine sucks

[nova nexus]

The team will address each ticket with respect to all of the tickets submitted by that person

[arctic ice]

God thank you

[nova nexus]

It's several hours past the end of the day 😂

[lyric nymph]

if the order is on hold do i lose the batch it was supposed to be?

[nova nexus]

No

[lyric nymph]

tyvm

[umbral pawn]

Still got a good reason to be bummed out lol cuz I could’ve done the order a long time ago

[sage reef]

wait, do ISO keycaps go together with JIS keycaps? they're dye-sub, not double shot, will look different?

[pseudo parrot]

enjoy your weekend wooting folks

[glass rock]

You'll get your board eventually man, just have some patience.

[buoyant solstice]

They will look different. Dyesub means instead of transparent letters, it's colour seeped into the plastic.

[umbral pawn]

I am patient, that’s not the point x3

I would appreciate it if I did place an order I’d be placed under batch 1 July-August delivery or whatnot x3

[glass rock]

https://tenor.com/view/side-eye-gif-17856173530980245283

[deft basalt]

Bruh my dog keeps going onto my keyboard

😭 Sorry in advance if I end up sending a random message

[cobalt charm]

It would actually benefit me if my 80he was delivered in august instead of july because I'll be out of my home country in July

[sage reef]

not like super big deal but still weird why not do all keycaps the same tho, also I see like spanish and french only ABS not PBT.

[gilded kindle]

https://tenor.com/view/doge-type-typing-dogecoin-gif-22440104

[nova nexus]

Keyboards are allocated to orders at the time of purchase

[humble cargo]

not enough interest to make PBT for those layouts, yet

its planned tho

[nova nexus]

PBT molds are extremely expensive whereas ABS keycaps are far cheaper to manufacture

[dense ridge]

I can be sure that the durabily of the painted black zinc allow will be good yes? and that it will not peel of over the time =)?

because there are a lot of articles about it on Google

[nova nexus]

We only make high quality products and offer a 2 year warranty on all accessories and 4 year warranty on the 80HE (excluding LEDs)

[surreal wasp]

where is my name on the woothing 80he website?

[deft basalt]

Not ready yet they'll email when they're ready

[nova nexus]

Nowhere yet, you'll get a chance to submit your name in a little while

[idle depot]

Why is the LED excluded?

[vagrant cloak]

are modules expected to be sent out earlier then pre assembled ones ?

[buoyant solstice]

Should be at the same time.

[nova nexus]

Because LEDs are notoriously unreliable and we're not trying to replace a 3 year old PCBA because a single color of a single LED dies

[sage reef]

japanese people like non-backlit better? kind of of weird still, you can just turn light off and have pretty similar with backlit.

[zealous oak]

Some dudes doesn't have the minimal patience 😅

[deft basalt]

LED are common failure point

[nova nexus]

I should note, the LEDs do still have a 2 year warranty, just not 4

[idle depot]

Ah are you able to replace the LED itself if needed?

[deft basalt]

Shouldn't be too hard afaik

[nova nexus]

That's very difficult with the water resistant coating, but not impossible

[deft basalt]

Ohh shat whelp

[idle depot]

oh

[glass rock]

Yeah some people want special privileges because they couldn't use their special options that werent available...

[nova nexus]

Not really something a regular DIYer could do, but an experienced repair shop could

[idle depot]

That’s fair enough I guess so if it was to be replaced would you need a new water resistant coating?

[river wharf]

i wonder how many JIS units will be sold, all of my japanese coworkers prefer ANSI over JIS
since modern IME is much better now

[umbral pawn]

Wait the Jade switches are out of stock or just not show up?

[nova nexus]

You'd use a heat gun to melt the coating, do your soldering bit, and then that part of the PCBA wouldn't be coated anymore
