[gilded junco]

The cutoff was the 27 for January

[uneven nexus]

aw

[final hare]

just got mine today

it is niceee

new keyboard, and cod double xp weekend, gonna be a fun weekend

[gilded junco]

Yeah unless the orders weren't made to preorder and you choose an unpopular color then maybe?

[obtuse igloo]

Is Eu-Walvis the 3rd batch?

[dull forge]

I guess so

[obtuse igloo]

When did you order ?

[dull forge]

Early october, I think. let me check real quick

[dull forge]

"date_added": "2024-10-29 09:26:49",

[coarse hearth]

Howdy, 🤠 happy owner of 80he finally. But my issue is do I have to keep wooting v5 in chrome open always. It’s kinda annoying to have to keep a chrome tab open for it

[midnight iron]

You do not

[coarse hearth]

So once initialised I can close ? :0

[midnight iron]

Make sure the profile you want to use on startup is profile 1 and you’re good

[coarse hearth]

Chat we are so up

[low token]

It means some parts are still not sold

So they might end up as in stock

Yep

It is for module too

[spring oar]

white PC plate on the 80he reminds me of a cheap mechamembrane keyboard

[tiny birch]

Might get it today let’s goo

[barren yew]

i get mine monday, perfect timing actually

[haughty beacon]

how u get so much percent off

where do you view that

[ruby schooner]

Let’s go!

[haughty beacon]

wher do you view batches

[tiny birch]

I'm a bit skeptical of that estimate since supposedly the post office only received the package today

[ruby schooner]

Isn’t that classified info

[tiny birch]

but fingers crossed

[ruby schooner]

yeah let’s just hope for the best! It’s coming today!

[astral rose]

when i play fort my edit key is f but everytime i join the game and try to edit i press f it goes into edit mode and instantly goes out the edit mode and when i changed my bind to g and it woreked should i just get a refund and get another one?

i think its a factory defect

not sure though

[astral rose]

for the wooting 60+

[north void]

When is the na batch coming out i just bought mines yesterday?

[dawn pagoda]

i bought mine back in september, the estimated delivery date was pretty spot on (delivered earlier this week)

[ruby schooner]

Fortnite?

[rich hawk]

hey can someone please tell me whats the differnece between 60HE and 80HE other than the 60% and 80% layout? what else is the differnece and what is the best fiit for me for the fastest response as a fortnite player who builds and edits a lot? and What are the differences between Lekker switch - Linear45 (L45) v2, Lekker switch - Linear60 (L60) v2 and Gateron Jade Switch??

Im new to this whole keyboard stuff and the keyboard i own now is a Razer Huntsman Mini 60% keyboard with red keycaps all stock keys and switches nothing custom!

[astral rose]

yea

everytime i press edit which for me is f it goes into the mode and then it just exits edit mode

[ruby schooner]

My edit is also F on 60he

No issues so far

Have you tried using F on other games?

[astral rose]

yea

[rich hawk]

someone pls tell me

[astral rose]

it just doesnt work

i think theyre the same ones just bigger

[finite rover]

80he has 8k polling 60he doesnt pretty sure

[atomic brook]

https://analog-monitor.wootility.io/

[rich hawk]

what does that mean? like its more of faster response rate?

[finite rover]

yeah

[rich hawk]

i see

[finite rover]

its not that noticable of a difference though

[ruby schooner]

Only happens to F?

[rich hawk]

hmmm so u have a 60HE or 80HE?

[finite rover]

i dont have either

[rich hawk]

oh

[finite rover]

i ordered the 80he but i dont have it yet

[astral rose]

yea only f

[finite rover]

but i've used other magnetic keyboards on 8k vs 1k

[ruby schooner]

Can you use F when typing?

[astral rose]

yea

[ruby schooner]

It could be a game issue

[rich hawk]

so what are these switches and whats the differneces in terms of sound and best performance

[astral rose]

it works but when i play fortnite or any other game with edit it doesnt workl

[ruby schooner]

Fortnite is currently encountering an issue with the binds

[finite rover]

i havent tried any other ones but i have used gateron jades and they're nice

[finite rover]

do other buttons work for editing

[ruby schooner]

^

[astral rose]

yea

like g works

but f doesnt

[finite rover]

did you try changing any settings on the key like actuation point or rapid trigger or anything

[ruby schooner]

You can try resetting the keyboard and see if that helps

[ruby schooner]

Can’t wait for my L45s!

Someone told me it’s much easier to press on compared to L60s

[ruby schooner]

If resetting won’t fix it, it may potentially be a defective F key

Could also be a game issue but mines work so I doubt it

[rich hawk]

how so ? like do they sound nice?

[finite rover]

yes

[open ibex]

skibbidi

[hybrid inlet]

Today is the day my white zinc alloy will be shipped. I am sure 🙏

[real gulch]

good luck

[pallid perch]

Hope my aswell

[rich hawk]

should i get it?

[mighty sundial]

I recently purchased 80he.
The switch is heavy, so I changed it to raw
Is there an effect of n poles on the magnetic axis??
I'm inquiring because I met the workshop lubrication, but I might have switched the n pole and the s pole of the magnet there. Does it affect the performance?

[tight cypress]

Don't worry, you didn't - magnet polarization in Raws is top-bottom, not side-side

[verbal solar]

hey is there any way to have the L45's V-2 Pre-installed on my 80he before its shipped or is that not possible

[lime falcon]

no

[verbal solar]

thanks boss :(

[mighty sundial]

@tight cypressthanks bro

[snow canyon]

nah

just window shop

[keen vector]

sound is very very subjective, so it's best to listen to sound tests for both and make a decision

[floral badger]

Another day waiting for my NA batch 2 white zinc v1 to ship

[tribal scroll]

Mine shipped earlier in the afternoon

[real shale]

Double unboxing?

[lime falcon]

holy

[real shale]

60 you're fired

[winter nebula]

Jfc dude

[toxic pelican]

idk if its me but when I use 8k polling, the keyboard would sometimes disconnect and reconnect. I do notice the board also generating a bit of heat as well.

[atomic brook]

contact support

[lime falcon]

#1309425793704792064 message

Try newest test firmware, might help with 8k issues

[bright jewel]

LED gets warm is you're running them high, is not an issue for the board itself

for the 8k, please check this thread, or tech support is in here and trying to filter out the issue (it can be caused by multiple things so theres no direct solution) https://discord.com/channels/167181566978555904/1309425793704792064

[atomic brook]

oh ya, did you mean the bottom of the case is hot?

or the leds

[glacial wedge]

Your fingers are weak asf go do some finger push ups

[fossil tulip]

My keyboard has been shipped

But I wonder why it says track the shipment through Fedex economy and the it puts me in UPS website

[midnight iron]

Wooting sometimes sends via ups when it originally had fed ex listed or vice versa

Seems to just vary on what the warehouse picks in their system for that weight size etc

[mighty sundial]

@glacial wedgeThere's a person who curses in the comments
You're gonna fall right into hell.
Fuck you.

[midnight iron]

?

[bright jewel]

@glacial wedge @mighty sundial no need to rude you two, knock it off or get timed out

[lime falcon]

lol

[fossil tulip]

Ahh good to know thanks sno

[midnight iron]

yeah i remember both me and another guy at 80he launch had it sent to korea at same time. Both of us were fed ex originally but I got fed ex and his was ups so we went through this lol

[floral badger]

[obtuse igloo]

day 7 of pick and pack - this shit crazy.... shipping date pushed back a month so far is EU-BRUG the most cursed batch of all time

[blissful loom]

I have been in ready to pack for about 2 weeks now

:c

[thin summit]

it officially got pushed to december :(

[obtuse igloo]

I was on ready to pack for near 4 weeks before pick and pack

its actually insane --- some guy in here said he got his shipping tracking code for the batch AFTER eu-brug lmao

[glacial wedge]

[bright jewel]

[blissful cradle]

Today got the wooting 80he zinc black tnx wooting ❤️ still not home but I hope it’s going to be good

[real moon]

At last it's coming

[fathom lagoon]

has it ever happened that it was delivered earlier than the est. delivery date?

[bright jewel]

it can happen yes

[fathom lagoon]

pray for my christmas gift lmao

[bright jewel]

[glacial wedge]

I’ll say from experience the delivery date is somehow right in the money

Especially if it’s expedited

[fickle lantern]

Mine show the same date

[worldly pebble]

you got an extra travel case even tho you bought zinc?

[upbeat bone]

So. Hey guys i was just buying the wooting 80 and i got kinda confused with the dates one was like 19th of December and at the checkout was it like late march of 2025 which one should I believe more
Can u help me ? 😅
(Im from Switzerland)

[buoyant solstice]

Where did you see December? What checkout states is the most accurate estimate always.

[real moon]

that's right. It's a spare

[upbeat bone]

So the December one was before i clicked on checkout i guess late march…

[buoyant solstice]

Referring to this?

[upbeat bone]

Yes 😭

[buoyant solstice]

ISO is out of stock till March*. The example above shows -A- configuration, not all possible combinations of layout and case (etc)

[upbeat bone]

Thank u for your help im going in to the shower now to cry 😂🙏

[warm condor]

anybodys ship tracking number for DHL doesnt work?

[buoyant solstice]

They can take a couple of days to work.

[warm condor]

ok cool thanks\

[upbeat bone]

For the german iso to 👉👈😂

[fathom lagoon]

i just ordered my german iso today, it will be delivered around 24th of december. So ig that one is not out of stock

[noble path]

Got the same thing.
80HE module would have been delivered on march so I ordered a « classic » version and delivery is planned from 25th of december to 11th of january

[spring oar]

rting still haven't recieved their 80he

or at least, still haven't began their testing on it

[upbeat bone]

Hmm can i hit u with a pn so i can ask u which magic u used ?

[fathom lagoon]

go ahead

[lyric copper]

Almost 48h on ready to pack... No way it leaves before weekend, right?

[valid bolt]

I was stuck on that for like 2 weeks

[hidden bridge]

good luck my man ! i waited for 2 weeks on ready to pack i hope it goes way faster for you soldier !

[lyric copper]

DAMN 2 weeks?? I guess white aint priority 🫣

[rustic scroll]

Hello I am now an owner of a wooting 80he. How should I set up rapid trigger for CS2

[hidden bridge]

i ordered black zinc in april

[lyric copper]

white in july...

[hidden bridge]

and i' supposed to have it today

[rustic scroll]

I got black zinc today

[frail lion]

Yo guys, i got my 80he like a week ago and sometimes my keyboard get stuck on a key. The only way to fix it disconnectign it and reconnecting. Anyone any suggestions?

[hidden bridge]

If i'm not wrong i was browsing the discord some days ago and saw a channel that was not only messages but threads (something like on reddit) and i saw that there was a thread about that so i guess you can find your solution in there if there is any fix

[frail lion]

okay ty

[hidden bridge]

trying to find the exact chan, i'll ping you if i find it faster than you

@frail lion Check private messages

[merry ermine]

at long last

[unborn drum]

Maybe K4ZER already got it, but you should possibly check in "community_support" the topic "The 8K Polling Issue and Investigation" ...

I've also noticed that sometimes I got input lag, pretty random with my 80HE... I am currently testing if it is related to my KVM switch or not, by plugging it in there or directly to my PC. I really REALLY hope it is not KVM related, because I pretty much HAVE to use the KVM since I work in IT and have to constantly switch between two PCs. Plugging and unplugging a wired keyboard is something that's just not feasible. PS: I had used a wireless logitech keyboard with the KVM before with zero issues.

[hidden bridge]

hey maybe sounding stupid but what is a kvm ?

[unborn drum]

There are no stupid questions 🙂 KVM = keyboard, video (monitors), mouse switch ... you basically connect your periferals and monitors to that and with the press of a button, you switch them from one PC to the other, back and forth

[tight cypress]

Kernel-based Virtual Machine

[unborn drum]

yeah no 😂

[lime falcon]

that wireless logi keyboard doesnt need as much power as wooting

understandable that it worked with kvm

[tribal trench]

one more week and its here

[upbeat berry]

its clearly Klinux Virtual Man

[gilded junco]

Bill Nye!

[upbeat berry]

thats Linus Nye the IT Guy

[winter nebula]

Happy 🦃 day, nerds

[mossy ocean]

now we wait for the spacebar

[gilded junco]

What’s the anime box in the back

[gilded junco]

Cute

[mossy ocean]

yeah i like it a lot

[tight cypress]

HoloGamers

[buoyant solstice]

Can't wait to put this on a 80HE

[agile crown]

https://www.gateron.com/products/gateron-magnetic-genty-silent-switch?VariantsId=10868
has anyone tried those on 80he?

[buoyant solstice]

Oh boy

[brazen jasper]

any hopes for my est delivery date? Its showing 2-14 dec and its still on ready to pack

[lyric copper]

Same here white v1 on ready to pack for 48h ...

[brazen jasper]

same think its been around 48h

[lyric copper]

Maybe we interpret priority differently from Wooting 🫣

[tight cypress]

Priority as in?

https://tenor.com/view/korone-smile-korone-smile-hololive-smile-hololive-korone-gif-5392571426578054983

[lyric copper]

as in white zinc, apparently based on batch update we get priority for shipment out of the warehouse

[celest badge]

can someone dm me space bar sound of 80he

[cunning spire]

tiny nitpick but these are both misspelled lmao

[buoyant solstice]

Where?

[cunning spire]

order view page

with estimated delivery and all that

[buoyant solstice]

No where do you see typos? 😄

[cunning spire]

on its way to you with
(missing part of the sentence)
an order related questions
(an is singular, questions is plural)

(also the O isn't capitalized)

not that it matters at all I just found it funny

[buoyant solstice]

First one is not a typo. It's a glitch where the courier isn't being shown.

Second one is fair. Should be singular 😄

[keen vector]

Could be they tried to say any order related questions, but still a typo

[buoyant solstice]

I'll pass it on.

[upbeat berry]

ill add more typos no worries

[tight swallow]

want another?

"Be the first to know the latest news, developments and scoops. We wont spam."

it should be "won't"
"wont" does not show up on spellchecks because it kinda is an archaic word and kinda also means the opposite

[agile crown]

oh, okay thanks

[buoyant solstice]

Uh... what

[winter nebula]

I'll spell as I wont to. Do not interfere.

[buoyant solstice]

Won't - will not.
It means exactly what it's supposed to in that sentence.

The lack of the apostrophe is just a bogstandard typo 😄

[tight swallow]

I know, but you have it as "wont" on your page 😄

[buoyant solstice]

Which is again not to be confused with the word you're thinking of 😉

[tight swallow]

so you are saying you spam your customers? 😄

[buoyant solstice]

[winter nebula]

Just remember, nobody appreciates a pedant.

Except maybe the pedant

[buoyant solstice]

Intentionally misreading definitely isn't helpful.

[tight swallow]

oh I just find that one funny and tbh most people dont even know the other version exists so it wont really be misread

[winter nebula]

English is to communication as Python is to programming. You're probably correct somehow no matter what you throw at it.

[tight swallow]

the one that does annoy me is payed instead of paid, but havent seen that one for a while too and not on the wooting page

[quartz belfry]

im still waiting for dpd to give an update

[tight swallow]

programming has its own fun stuff, js is also full of sinful stuff that works

[winter nebula]

wat

https://www.destroyallsoftware.com/talks/wat

[verbal solar]

They just shipped my wooting 80 heeeeeeeeee

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA ( i waited a long time)

[spring oar]

The wait is worth

[verbal solar]

If mine has any issues i might shove it down my throat to be honest ( got a broken monitor for 940 pounds, aswell as another one for 700 pounds [new])

[tight swallow]

took me a while to find this on purpose cursed thing again but it might be also worth a look 😄
https://github.com/TodePond/DreamBerd (and I just noticed it is "a bit off topic", whoops)

[verbal solar]

And so on, i just want my wooting to be working

[fickle lantern]

Congrats, I still have to wait 26+ days for mine

[verbal solar]

Noooooooo

I mean to be fair i should have had it one month ago already (no white zync to clarify)

[tight swallow]

issues are probably quite rare at least a lot rarer than they seem

[verbal solar]

Have you bought your own keycaps ?

[verbal solar]

Not with me, if something can go wrong it will when i buy new

[tight swallow]

eh worst case you will wait a few weeks longer

[fickle lantern]

I got the normal 80he, might get a jade max switch later on to mod it a little

[verbal solar]

Cool, i want to get a custom case ( red) and that's it. I lready biught the double shot keycaps from corsair ( red)

I'm all set

[hybrid thorn]

Hey guys im from germany and I wanted to buy a wooting 80 he (iso de). However the shipping date went up from december 19 to mid march is there a way i can get it faster or is the Shopping 4 months now?

[mossy ocean]

depends on ur selected products i think

looks like only ansi can get you in for december now, but maybe they end up pulling some of the other ones forward, march is quite far off lol

[winter nebula]

One more joke language to haunt eternity

[hybrid thorn]

So do you think i should buy an iso rn or isnt it like worth

[little moon]

good luck homie

[echo relic]

get the zinc ally one. it should arrive first

[little moon]

my EST was delayed 7 times

[tight swallow]

not sure if it will change anything for your keyboard but they wrote something in batch updates about mini batches

[hybrid thorn]

Can i put iso key caps on the ansi version

[tight swallow]

as in not sure if the current estimates are accurate or not

[hybrid thorn]

I would but no money

[mossy ocean]

i think the enter is different? but your set might have both

actually a bunch are

[tight swallow]

enter and there is an extra button next to lshift for iso

[hybrid thorn]

Ye

[mossy ocean]

but you could get premade ansi i guess?

unless you have a set ready

[echo relic]

80he iso de vs 60he+ ansi

[tight swallow]

tbh rather go with the layout you prefer, you will only wait once but you will use your keyboard for years

[hybrid thorn]

Okay

[tight swallow]

ansi does also have more keycap variety though 😄

[mossy ocean]

yeah i like ansi

[tight swallow]

I picked ISO but a lot of people dont mind going either way

[winter nebula]

I restrained myself. When I see an ISO enter key I just wanna slap it so hard. Too tempting.

[echo relic]

biggest problem for me when i got my iso 60he+ was the missing keys like ä or ö. Also keys like # + ´ where at diffrent locations. Took some time to get used to

[hybrid thorn]

Do you think the extra 100€ are worth for the zinc alloy?

[winter nebula]

No. Unless yes.

[tight swallow]

there is no right pick, some people just like their case to be heavy

[echo relic]

if you want a weapon then yes. otherwise no. my 80he is 1.95kg

[hybrid thorn]

Hm okay

[tight swallow]

you do get a nice travel case with the zinc

[hybrid thorn]

Or is there like another way to get an iso 80 he in 2024

[echo relic]

used maybe

[winter nebula]

Theft

Time travel

[hybrid thorn]

:((( if i just bought it yesterday

[echo relic]

sad life

[tight swallow]

paying 150 000€ is also an option not sure who offered it XD

[winter nebula]

If it makes you feel any better, a lot of us waited a lot longer for it. We just started our wait earlier.

[hybrid thorn]

Yep

[echo relic]

i waited since may. just got mine in the mail today

[coarse crest]

If you want a heavier keeb and don’t like muted sounding keebs yes

[tight swallow]

and according to this the current estimate may not be accurate

#📦│batch_updates message

could be a shorter wait, and could also take longer...

[hybrid thorn]

Hm ok

Idk but is there like another kb that is good for gaming + Software that is iso?

[tight swallow]

since you are looking at the 80 I guess 60% ones are not an option?

[echo relic]

razer/steelseries maybe. I have an old steelseries apex pro edit: in iso de

[hybrid thorn]

Nah ig i would get like a 75% 80% or tkl

Ive heard that keychron q1 he and the new pulsar Keyboard should be good

[tight swallow]

the pulsar one does look nice, but I haven't looked into the reviews on that one, there is a list somewhere but I cant find it currently

[hybrid thorn]

Hm ok

[tropic tide]

Can someone explain if the Mode-key is useless if I use fn +1 and 2 to switch between profiles?

[winter nebula]

Mode swaps between the latest non-typing profile and typing. So it still has a use.

[shut cairn]

Well technically it is quicker if you only have 2 profiles

[buoyant solstice]

Kind of? It swaps between the first profile and whichever of the other three you last used.

[echo relic]

Lekker L45 or L60? Any preferences?

[winter nebula]

Some like 45, some like 60

Depends on how heavy a switch you prefer.

[tropic tide]

Thanks, so I'll remap it to END or something else that I use more often, not in a hurry in profile swaps and now it's just an extra key for me. Thanks for clearing that out!

[fathom lagoon]

🫡

[versed pebble]

is there anyone who is waiting for EU - Walvis ?

[agile isle]

👀

[tropic tide]

For my preferences, the L60 is in a good spot, not too light, not too heavy. The L60 is still fast enough for my use case scenarios and I don't want them to be too light since It's really easy to activate HE switches if you just rest your fingers on them.

[shut cairn]

I remapped it to the snipping tool for quick screenshots (well the print button, but that opens snipping tool on windows)

[ebon lodge]

freakin love this board, just been playing with profiles etc, sooo much customization, and everything just works smooth as butter

[tropic tide]

Same here, the typing experience is great, the sound is great, I don't have any issues with freezing or extra noises. Feels and looks premium. They really set the bar high for others

[deep plover]

did you ever find a solution to this? i had the same issue with my first order and now my current order, i've tried literally every format of my address and eircode but dpd still says it doesn't match

[agile isle]

yes, receiving it in the week of 2nd december

[tropic tide]

And since I need a nordic keycaps and north facing led's, there's not much choice out there. Good thing the choice is such a good board.

[oblique zodiac]

Oh it just arrived so ignored it lol i got the Irish tracking number and it gave all the detail

[versed pebble]

rlly ? i just wonder why for me its showing estimated delivery early january

[agile isle]

it changed for me a few days ago

first it said that for me too so i am excited i get it next week

[tall pulsar]

me

[agile isle]

i got this 2 days ago

and today i got the shipping confirmation

[versed pebble]

daaamn sounds nice , for me it is still in "Mass Production" idk i just waiting , but also a bit strange

[tall pulsar]

ordered it just yesterday but pretty sure they are doing first come first served, estimate showing
ESTIMATED DELIVERY
25 December 2024 - 07 January 2025

[agile isle]

wat case did you get? idk if it could be that

and yea its first come first served

[versed pebble]

i have 80 he plastic one , have no access to email atm

[tall pulsar]

when did you order?

[agile isle]

prob doesn't matter cuz it's what clydex said but i got the zinc one

[versed pebble]

like a few days ago , max 1 week

[agile isle]

i ordered first of november

[agile isle]

yea then that's why

[tall pulsar]

i also took 80he yesterday and its showing me earlier delivery than for you

i also took the default black plastic US layout

maybe you got another layout?

[versed pebble]

oh i took another layout maybe thats the reason

[tall pulsar]

yeah for sure then

[versed pebble]

i took the UK with the big enter

[tall pulsar]

those will get made later than the US ones from what i read

thats probably why its later for you

[glad kiln]

That Bait email i just got
Something about 80HE Module Buyers having problems and how to avoid

Thought I got a shipment update xd

[agile isle]

November 1
(Pre-Order) Wooting 80HE × 1
ANSI / Zinc Alloy / Black

[versed pebble]

but anyway thought if it is one batch , should be + / - same delivery , with difference of few days , but okaay

[tall pulsar]

they said something about splitting the batches for different layouts this time

so instead of everyone waiting for the same batch some will get delivered earlier

yeah 2nd message in #📦│batch_updates

[agile isle]

but hey better than waiting a month

[versed pebble]

kinda read that , but all around confusing a bit

[agile isle]

which first was 2

we're almost there

[versed pebble]

😄 atleast would be better than mass market

[agile isle]

finally can get rid of my glorious keyboard, it was good untill it wasn't and their software is so fucking shit

[versed pebble]

got corsair over for 10 + years

kinda software is anyway taking a lot of ram

[shut cairn]

I had the same experience with the Corsair K70 Mk2

[versed pebble]

and etc , also want tkl

[shut cairn]

Their RGB customization is really good, but overall it's just not great

[agile isle]

i built it myself, the switches are ass and take a lot of activation force for todays standard and they updated their software and it's the biggest down grade i've ever seen

happy to stop using it

[versed pebble]

i guess also after a 10 + years it is a time to make some changes 😄 + it is switches with magnets , with fast actuation points and etc , wonder how it will affect me , will i notice the "difference"

[shut cairn]

I think most of the difference will be the build quality. My old K70 sounded like a$$ compared to the 80HE (Or my Keychron Q6 pro which I got after the k70)

[distant monolith]

Corsair went from really good keyboards to garbage in 6 years

And their software went to awful to literally malware

[versed pebble]

if we will compare i have the cheaper version STRAFE RGB 😄 not even though k70

[winter nebula]

I also hadn't changed keyboard in about 10 years and decided HE was enough of a sea change to check it out. I think you will notice a difference for sure. Things have come a long way.

[versed pebble]

it is similar to steelseries , such a trash 😄

[shut cairn]

Browser based + completely stored on the keyboard is just goated

[scarlet trellis]

what does the 80he+ play like

[winter nebula]

A bongo

[agile isle]

like a keyboard

[distant monolith]

Clack clack clack thock thock click clack thock

[distant monolith]

Not only that but without their software the keyboard doesn’t even work properly…

Oh the software crashed? That’s fine bro your keyboard cannot be detected anymore…
Oh this update messed up the software? No big deal, the keyboard will stay off until you manage to uninstall the software without a keyboard.

[shut cairn]

Luckily I didn't encounter that problem, but without any software it is also just RGB vomit. Wooting made their default profile look good

[distant monolith]

Oh you wanted to use on device memory? Tough luck the shit icue just removed your local profiles

[scarlet trellis]

I wanted a drum though

[shut cairn]

Also can't store rgb effects, only static rgb

[distant monolith]

I’m so happy to ditch Corsair completely already

Between that and their marketing lies, hope they go under soon

[agile isle]

wrong product haha

Your poor, poor keyboard.

[scarlet trellis]

it's okay my hella old apex pro survived it

survived osu 9*

[shut cairn]

I think if you use a hammer to type on your keyboard, it could sound like a fancy drum

[scarlet trellis]

it's still living sometimes

sometimes it moves 6 seconds after I move

6 seconds later

[worn compass]

The stock 80he lekker v2 60gs are quite a bit heavy letting yk
Thought the change from 45g to 60g wouldnt be such a big deal but its kinda tiring playing osu lmao

[scarlet trellis]

keyboard lag

[scarlet trellis]

I don't play osu much anymore so I'm alright haha

[nova nexus]

Doesn't have a Wooting yet

[shut cairn]

Gotta do that finger workout before

[shut cairn]

Oh no, that sounded wrong

[scarlet trellis]

😔 so long

[winter nebula]

I find 60g to be tiring even for just typing, but I believe someone in here said that is because I have sissy weakling fingers and should "bulk up, nerd".

[worn compass]

I’ve had my 80he for a week now, I think its great! Only problem I have with it is that my hair keeps falling in lmao
That can be generalized to any keyboard tho

[winter nebula]

Or something to that effect.

[rare stream]

🎉 I - just - received - my - wooting 80HE 🎉

[pale wigeon]

Does anyone know the size of the 80he wrist rest, I wanna know if it’ll fit on my desk I can’t find the dimensions on their site

[worn compass]

Thank you.

[winter nebula]

Yeah totally. It's just a shame that there isn't a cheap way to find out ahead of time.

[winter nebula]

Not just teasing, I bought one of these 15 years ago, still going strong and has been invaluable in keeping my desk mostly hair/fur free.

[shut cairn]

They should be in the specs section of the product page

[pale wigeon]

It just says coming soon

[winter nebula]

LOL indeed it does

[shut cairn]

Well the length is the same as the 80HE

[worn compass]

Ik I added it to my wishlist, Im genuinely thanking you lol
Im gonna buy one of these later some day

[rare stream]

hihihi

[pale wigeon]

Yea I was jus worried about the width to see if it would fit on the desk or not

[wind mica]

for some reason my spacebar sticks to the bottom of the switch a bit, it's hard to explain.. like it still comes back up but it feels like there is something sticky on the bottom of the switch

[winter nebula]

I just measured mine. It's 14"x4"

[pale wigeon]

Thanks

[nova nexus]

Remove the pads under the stabilizers, they probably got some lube on them and got sticky

[low token]

Too much lube from factory

[winter nebula]

Those were removed in batch 3 onward, right?

[wind mica]

Im scared to take my keyboard apart 😔

[winter nebula]

Do not fear. Fear is the mind killer.

[rare stream]

i love the lining inside

[winter nebula]

Yeah, I want to take a nap inside my case.

[worn compass]

I feel like I can touch this image

[rare stream]

Indeed, I just woke up from a nap before getting the package from the post office, I want to lie in here again

[mossy ocean]

its a very comfy case indeed

ill get my cat in there somehow, because i cant

[brazen jasper]

is there alot of keyboards still on the EU-Brug-1 batch?

[agile isle]

yee im getting the travel case too

will be nice if i have a lan

[winter nebula]

Invite me, I haven't been to a LAN party since the Quake 3 days.

[agile isle]

it's just with irl friends

i don't compete or someshit, we just have a giant party lmao

i cba it compete, i tried with overwatch and t3 and scrims and all that

nah it ain't for me

[winter nebula]

Yeah some competition can be fun, but taking it too far can also crush all the joy out.

[rare stream]

here comes the keycaps switching....

[agile isle]

thats a good pic for size comparison too, thanks

[winter nebula]

Doesn't take too long. Pro tip, taking the top plate off the 80 will make it even easier since you can just pull them off w/ your grubby little paws.

[rare stream]

If you need any other info feel free to ask

[agile isle]

i remember my college hosted a lan party and my monitor got cracked transporting it lmao

still won with a broken screen

[winter nebula]

Damn that's a heroic story.

[rare stream]

Good call, you remembered me i didn't wash my hands yet, is it difficult to remove the topplate?

[agile isle]

all good thanks thought it's a good comparison, i rely a lot on my f keys so 60 was def too smal but the 80 he is just perfect middle ground

[winter nebula]

Not at all, just take off the screws on the bottom and it lifts right off.

Assuming this is zinc, which it looks like it is

[rare stream]

yup

You're probably right about screwing it out but I can't be arsed to get a screwdriver.

[winter nebula]

I just use my teeth

https://tenor.com/view/y3ongi-dog-biting-crazy-gif-21033982

Oh, it's a toothpick not a keycap removal tool

[hybrid inlet]

Pick and pack! Progress!!!

[fathom helm]

hey, it’s been almost two days and i haven’t gotten any emails about my 80he getting shipped out

It will ship as soon as it can

I can't say anything more than that..

[rare stream]

Switch order maybe in the app and safe

[buoyant solstice]

You change your primary profile to be in the first slot.

[low token]

Because in v4 wootility it works like that

[buoyant solstice]

It works like that in V5 as well to be fair.

[verbal solar]

hi guys there is a method to use macro's on 80he

[buoyant solstice]

https://www.autohotkey.com/

[hybrid inlet]

I GOT THE SHIPPING EMAIL. ITS HAPPENING

[buoyant solstice]

[winter nebula]

Your faith has been rewarded.

[hybrid inlet]

Maybe it will arrive before my holidays starting on Tuesday
But who am I kidding, I got a baby. As if I will be able to play during that time

[winter nebula]

I see you half asleep with baby in one arm, keyboard disconnected in your lap, tapping away with a thousand yard stare in your eyes.

[rare stream]

now i can type twice as fast

[fallow estuary]

Aight it finally arrived, can you guys share any profiles for gaming and typing to switch between? Idk whats best for me yet so id like use most popular actuation points for now

[rare stream]

#🌈│wootabase_profiles

[winter nebula]

Beautiful

Not so different, you and I

[fallow estuary]

Its valorant valorant valorant and more valorant there, i dont see profiles for typing

[winter nebula]

Check on the wootabase site. Or make your own 🙂

[rare stream]

I still have to twist and turn the knobs of the RGB

Probs going to be cyan again.

[winter nebula]

I'm blue/green/cyan for typing, red/pink/purple for gaming

This and my 60 are my first RGB boards. I don't like RGB in any other PC stuff, but it is pretty on these and helpful for indicating profile and such.

[spring oar]

Ayy, same

[wooden roost]

still no mini batches

i wanna know if I will get it before xmas

[rare stream]

What's the wifi button

[winter nebula]

Mode

[rare stream]

No, it is wifi

[winter nebula]

As you say

[worn compass]

white on black looks so good!!!!

Im planning on doing the same

[outer mountain]

is the keyboard out of stock ? !!

[worn compass]

No

[outer mountain]

i've order 3 time and telling me the order is canceled

[worn compass]

Odd

[molten lance]

thats crazy never seen that before

not sold out though

[broken mesa]

is it normal???????

I double checked it and nothing is wrong with it

[wooden roost]

it says there the reason why it was canceled

[buoyant solstice]

The email you received with the tracking code does mention that it could be up to 72 hours for it to work.

[broken mesa]

Oh ok

makes sense ye

[grand valley]

whats your current estimate? mine is 24th dec - 9th of january but I also hope it comes earlier

[wooden roost]

exactly same

but they said with mini batches some might arrive earlier

some later

[grand valley]

yeah I still hope for that aswell, would love to have it before 2025 at least

[floral badger]

jfc christ, hand lubing these geon raws with metal tools is annoying

[fallow estuary]

My shit is kinda crooked, look at the light below spacebar. Now that i look on whole keyboard its like in the right half of the keybard all keys sit lower

i wonder if theres something going on with gasket on the right side or what, i will need to dissasemble it after all

[distant monolith]

Email; your order could be fraudulent:
user: is it out of stock?

Dude read the email, it says in there what to do!

[steep badger]

you should contact support. mine looks normal.

But it could be a simple fix you take it apart and see

[fallow estuary]

if dissasembling it wont void my return window thats what i'll do cuz i wanna keep the board if possible

[rugged ivy]

I ordered my keyboard today and when will it arrive

[dense berry]

Pretty sure it says somewhere on the website that they allow customers to mod the keyboard and still uphold warranty (to a certain degree)

[buoyant solstice]

Don't break shit, and we won't have any issues.

[dense berry]

Can’t complain about that

[buoyant solstice]

Plenty of videos on how to do things on the Wooting YT channel.

[wooden roost]

it literally says it while you are ordering

[fallow estuary]

@nova nexus can you confirm that please? can i disassemble it to see whats causing these keys being uneven and still keep ability to return board if i dont destroy/scratch anything?

[nova nexus]

Disassembling does not void warranty

[worldly pebble]

does running led's at max wear em out sooner? :V

[nova nexus]

I suggest you document to process with detailed pictures before, during and after

[worldly pebble]

i planned on going full tilt all the way

[nova nexus]

If you successfully affect self-repair, we may be willing to compensate you (on a case by case basis)

[hybrid inlet]

That would be awesome then I would have had enough energy to even go to my desk

[outer mountain]

Ok ty😂❤️

[outer mountain]

I payed w reddot to pay

[strange pecan]

HO HO HOpe it will come by the new year

[lost vale]

I just wanted to confirm that I'm not misunderstanding something. It is not possible to obtain the Wooting 80HE Nordic (Å, Ä, Ö) prior to March, 2025 + shipping time? Does anyone know?

[hybrid thorn]

Same for me wanted to buy iso de tells me ther same

[left terrace]

i have problem with my shipping address , it is on hold it i update the shipping address and still on hold ! any help

[shell sky]

After such a long time its finaly here! 😄

is tapemod good for thios keyboard?

[shell sky]

it has already a tapemod stock but you can feel free to add more

[worldly pebble]

https://tenor.com/view/cat-light-computer-gif-21223179

does keeping the leds at max brightness wear them out at all?

[rugged ivy]

how can i hold my order

[buoyant solstice]

https://hub.wooting.io/my/account
Create account, click order, click hold

[rugged ivy]

but where

[buoyant solstice]

[hybrid thorn]

Is that the zink alloy?

[autumn harbor]

how long does it take for them to pack normally? original date was nov 27th

[shell sky]

yes the white zinc v1

[dapper tide]

mine went from packing to shipping in 3 days

[autumn harbor]

[dapper tide]

doing something shady

[fallow estuary]

So this is the culprit, whole pcb is kinda crooked, now i wonder if i should make workaround with bigger amount of tape on one side to even this out or just return the board

[buoyant solstice]

I don't see no curve there.

[worn compass]

Zinc started shipping??

[fathom helm]

still not shipped 😔 wondering if switching to zinc was worth it

[leaden jetty]

Already got my zinc one

[worn compass]

Sweet

[worldly pebble]

ello mansen :) will i be fine running my kbs led's at max brightness 24/7? no wear out or anything?

holy shit white zinc

more pics pls

mine comes in tomorrow

[autumn harbor]

they forgor about is

[digital hearth]

Is there a way to get keys to work for typing in Gamepad mode?
I have WASD mapped to a left analog stick, but I would like to be able to type with these keys...maybe at a certain actuation point?

As of right now I can type with all the other keys except WASD

[buoyant solstice]

Depends on the game really.

[digital hearth]

Windows

[quartz belfry]

mine took 18 hours 🤭

[buoyant solstice]

Ah yes. The game of checks notes Windows.

[digital hearth]

I mean I cannot type inside of anything

[buoyant solstice]

Enable keyboard keys

[quartz belfry]

why does dpd not give me an estimate for delivery time 🫠

[verbal solar]

slightly curved yes

[digital hearth]

Oh wait maybe it's the Gamepad mapping override

[buoyant solstice]

[digital hearth]

I will test if the analog movement still works correctly inside of games
But I can type now 👍

[hybrid thorn]

would yall recomend the zinc or the plastic one?

[digital hearth]

For me...plastic. Even $100 is too much for me to spend on a keyboard, but somehow I still bought the 80HE just to try it lol

[candid rain]

does someone has a blck zynk with white keycaps i ordered that and would really like to see how that combination looks

[fallow estuary]

@glossy flax@verbal solar youd have to see it in person to see bigger curve also there is even on one side slight /\ curve and keys face other ways, sadly im returning the board, even if this wont be issue for many people i cant justify it for 330€

[candid rain]

isee here 😛

[fallow estuary]

but without that issue this keyboard is worth its price, performance etc are fucking top notch

[glossy flax]

Fair enough, it's your money man. If you're not comfortable with it, return it. I guess..

[fallow estuary]

maybe ill buy it again in the future

[glossy flax]

But you can just send it back for a replacement?

Send board back > Get sent new board

gotta ask support for that though

[fallow estuary]

if i wont have to wait another fuckton of months maybe ill do that

[quartz belfry]

ask Mark 🗣️

[glossy flax]

If you contact support about it you'd have to wait for a reply eitherway. No matter if its to just return it or if you decide to want a replacement. So waiting time is equally as long, I think? You'd be best off just contacting support eitherway to ask about what options they offer.

Its looks so good holy, my comes next week

[verbal solar]

anyone here with slightly more knowledge than me that can please help me figure out what is wrong with my new 80he? i literally just plugged it in and i dont understand what is happening😭 (ignore the missing keycap)

[buoyant solstice]

ER means it is unable to boot up properly.

https://v5.wootility.io/
Use this link in a chromium browser (Chrome, Edge fx. not Firefox) and click the help button on the left, then go from there.

[urban meadow]

Wait, how did you loose your key cap already 😭

[verbal solar]

i just havent decided which one to put in that spot yet🤣

[urban meadow]

How many key caps is there, it’s only one in the box for that spot 😭

[shell sky]

i was so worried about paint issues etc. but its just perfect. v1 zink was the right choice for sure.

[verbal solar]

i think i ordered keycaps for a full keyboard and i am not smart enough to know which one goes in that exact spot

[pallid perch]

same, heard from one guy that his paint startet chipping in like huge junks, hope my is good and dhl doenst destroy it kekw

[verbal solar]

i see most of the pictures have the "mode" button there but i didnt get one

[urban meadow]

They have pre set pictures of the key caps and what it looks like in the installation video on yt from Wooting if you want med to see which key cap goes in that spot

[verbal solar]

wait nvm i did get it

im blind

💀

[urban meadow]

[verbal solar]

anyways, do you have any ideas on how to fix the keyboard? i contacted support but i kinda want to use it now too, i have waited months for this😤 but if i have to wait a bit longer then so be it

[urban meadow]

Just do what Mansen sent in the chat, he wold known more on this

[wise ridge]

Does anyone have a picture of the wooting 80he with the white double shot backlit PBT keycaps?

[bleak sundial]

I just got an email saying there were some cases where the daughterboard cable was not properly installed, and I think I have one of them, cause mine was too long and didn’t fit the thing properly I managed to put them together, but Idk if I did it right and don’t want to unscrew everything again now

[shell sky]

if u scroll up to 8:49pm i posted one

Do you think they would look good with the black plastic?

[pallid perch]

proaly not, but if you think it looks good then it is what it is

[shell sky]

its only important that you will like it.

thats the default picture if you configure it. i think it matches alright

If I order everything separately to get the L45s, can I put everything together when I get all of it (like put the module in the case etc)?

hey guys im having this big problem with my wooting80he. When im playing randomly my keyboard will bug out and my character will only move in one direction and I cant move anything or hit anything. I have to unplug my keyboard and plug it back in and sometimes my pc will be buggy after and I have to restart. Its pretty gamebreaking as its gotten me killed in valorant a couple times

any help would be appreciated

[shell pebble]

I'm from Netherlands

and my items have been shipped

[lime bough]

yes it is and i am also from there and for me it shows that i will get it tomoorow

[tawny roost]

hi guys if my wooting will arrive on warehouse on 19 december i can get it before 25th? im on italy

[buoyant solstice]

Highly unlikely.

[lime bough]

i ordered in end of october and i am just geetting is a month . idn how i got it

[tawny roost]

[buoyant solstice]

There's this funny thing called Christmas happening around then.

[lime bough]

i agree

[outer mountain]

guys how i can pre order 80 he !!

i payed and they refund the money

[shell pebble]

same i ordered 3 days ago and it has already been shipped

[buoyant solstice]

Read the email you received with tips.

[low token]

By clicking buttons

[lime bough]

[lime bough]

order it now u have good chances of getting it early as i am also batch walvis and its delivering fast.. if its just the normal 80he

[outer mountain]

when i try to do it i put my card and payed the money and they just canceled the order !

[lime bough]

then i cant comment

[buoyant solstice]

I don't need to read it. I know exactly what it says. -YOU- need to read it however 😄

[carmine pulsar]

it annoys me with the gateron pro switches

i dunno where i can order them in the eu

but i want them

[distant monolith]

I guess reading is difficult for you, perhaps you dont need the keyboard if you cant read XDDD

[outer mountain]

r u ok ?

[distant monolith]

No, thanks for asking.

[carmine pulsar]

just try to order a new one

[outer mountain]

i tried 3 times

with new card and still

[carmine pulsar]

https://www.amazon.de/Gateron-Magnetic-Jade-Pro-Pre-Travel/dp/B0DF713C8W

are these the jade pros?

[distant monolith]

Doing the same things over and over and expecting a different result is insanity - Albert Einstein

[lime bough]

r they credit card?

[outer mountain]

yes

[lime bough]

see with credit there are few card which getts flagged as it not real money transfer.. use a debit and address which is well stablished

[outer mountain]

i tried debit too

[lime bough]

then ask the wooting team as they can only answer it properly

people will just speculate here

[outer mountain]

maybe ty for help

[outer mountain]

for sure he think he is professor

[buoyant solstice]

The email they received explains all, and is all the help we can provide in this manner.

[lime bough]

i understand ur point and theymight give him what he can do it order

[buoyant solstice]

No. No we will not 😄

But I'll happily repeat myself when myself or someone else from the CS team sees their email.

[lime aspen]

He works for wooting

[lime bough]

my bad then .. memoo u got ur answer

no point then asking

[buoyant solstice]

Doesn't even matter if I'm staff or not. The email in question was literally posted further up - By Memoo, stating exactly what I said as well.

i have read everything

[distant monolith]

then you are up to date

just wait

[fathom helm]

ive been waiting for so long

8 months

[humble cargo]

8k has been fine for me, is it tachyon mode that's causing problems with it or something

[distant monolith]

then wait more

[fathom helm]

it's been a almost a week how can the black zinc keyboards not be shipped out yet

[distant monolith]

Black friday + some delays

just wait

[fathom helm]

0 updates doesn't help either

[winter schooner]

this looks like a ton of help thank you much.

[fathom helm]

i was told that my order was meant to be shipped out 2 days ago

[winter schooner]

@buoyant solstice im goint to test out this anti freeze firmware wooting have releaser

[distant monolith]

how many updates you want daily?

[fathom helm]

not trying to be petty but my keyboard has been 'ready to pack' for 3 and a half weeks

[distant monolith]

Black
Friday
Christmas

It is busy on this time on every warehouse

[fathom helm]

yes i get that but no one has told me that the delays are due to that reason

[buoyant solstice]

When in doubt, reach out (to support via the website)

[fathom helm]

i have

i've literally done everything possible

[distant monolith]

then wait 🙂

[winter schooner]

did you pay for expidited shipping?

[buoyant solstice]

https://tenor.com/view/grogu-gif-19583983

[winter schooner]

cuz to be honest prob most of the ppl that have theres are the ones that did

[fathom helm]

yeah i have paid for expidited shipping

[winter schooner]

damn ngl that sucks alot

[buoyant solstice]

Expedited shipping doesn't change any of that.

[winter schooner]

oh

[fathom helm]

im losing my mind so much ab this kb

[winter schooner]

could he get a refund tho since it didnt come on the early time thats promised

idk if you'd care about getitng your 8 bucks back

[lapis galleon]

it’s not promised whatsoever

[buoyant solstice]

Expedited shipping just means the courier treats it with a greater priority - once it is in their hands and systems.

It does not affect the packing process in any way, and the estimated delivery time window does not begin till the courier scans the package in on their end.

[winter schooner]

oh ok

[fathom helm]

not really its 8 pounds not that much

[fathom helm]

would location affect it aswell since im in the uk and not in the eu?

[winter schooner]

maybe

[umbral timber]

I feel like you should have gotten yours shipped before mine. (I'm from Canada in Eu-Brug ansi black zinc prebuilt too)

[winter schooner]

my kb was supposed to come nov 17- dec 1st and then I changed to expedited shipping and got it on the 15th of november I like in california, USA

[fathom helm]

mines ansi tho

[winter schooner]

*live

[umbral timber]

I meant to say ansi sorry

[fathom helm]

i did get an email back from wooting and they did mention my kb is taking longer than usual to fufill

[buoyant solstice]

Same fulfilment center. Don't see how.

[fathom helm]

i haven't gotten any further info why it's taking longer to fufill

[umbral timber]

A bit strange

[distant monolith]

Gregory Mattompsen got the flu, he was in charge of your keyboard. Now you gotta wait for the flu.

[buoyant solstice]

#📦│batch_updates and contacting support are your avenues of help

[fathom helm]

just have to wait more for replies ig

[distant monolith]

you got it now!

[keen vector]

as someone in the UK, mine took 2 days from parcel received by DPD to delivered to me

[brazen jasper]

does anyone know if you can redirect the package if you chose dhl?

to like an access point

[fathom helm]

what 80he did u get specifically?

[keen vector]

just the bog standard one, but it doesn't make a difference if the delivery is the issue

[fathom helm]

ig maybe contact support idk

[keen vector]

from DPD to me was 2 days

package was complete so what I got isn't factor

[quartz belfry]

damn I don't remember if I payed for the expedited shipping

[keen vector]

it took me 3 days from order queued for fulfilment until it was sent to DPD, if that's what you want to know

[quartz belfry]

hoping that's me too n it comes tmr 🤞🤞🤞

[fathom helm]

they did say on the batch updates that the black zinc us-ansi are having some delays

[keen vector]

and that was with your base 80he

[brazen jasper]

not thru wooting but like dhl, cause i know other shipping companys allow it

[gleaming pebble]

is it possible to have gamepad mode on only a specific profile?

[keen vector]

yeah but that's at the warehouse, no?

[fathom helm]

think so

[keen vector]

it isn't at the courier itself

[fathom helm]

yeah

[keen vector]

I'm speaking 2 days from courier to house, so the keyboard makes no difference

[fathom helm]

so weird that mines taking so long

i always have bad luck w preorders no matter the product

[quartz belfry]

are uou a worm by chance

[keen vector]

a pet worm*

[buoyant solstice]

Yes. That's how it's always worked.

[quartz belfry]

🪱 <-- you rn

[keen vector]

mansen is your pfp you?

[quartz belfry]

mansens like the dad of this chat

[gleaming pebble]

ohh i red it wrong thanks for replying, its about the controller type not the gamepad mode being on or off

[keen vector]

legit

[buoyant solstice]

No

[keen vector]

https://tenor.com/view/toji-fushiguro-toji-zenin-toji-toji-cuckoo-toji-finger-twirl-gif-12202550767802220006

i'm actually that worm

but W

[quartz belfry]

so you're the leech

[torpid furnace]

Sorry if this has been talked about a gizilion times, but is there an update on the white alu case?

[buoyant solstice]

See #📦│batch_updates for any updates.

[rustic scroll]

The typing feel is really nice

[rustic scroll]

sometimes my buttons dont get recognized tho, if I spam a button

is that normal?

maybe user issue, might just not click enough lul

[obtuse igloo]

this eu-brug zinc keyboards are cursed -- im on pick and pack for a week now. We'll see the end of week deadline is another bust tomorrow XDDDDDDDD

[thin summit]

ive been on ready to pack for a few weeks now, which hurts because i live only half an hour away from the fulfilment center

so close yet so far

[obtuse igloo]

lmao wooting actually cooked

[thin summit]

kinda regret switching my order from plastic to zinc rn ngl

[obtuse igloo]

someone from EU-Mavis which is a newer batch said they got their shipping label yesterday

[thin summit]

wtf

[obtuse igloo]

they had a deadline then pushed it back 2 weeks and said by the end of this week they'll be done eu-brug.. they got 1 day to ship my keyboard and yours out

maybe we are the last two?

[thin summit]

“shouldnt take long now” gave me false hope

they said 95% of black zinc was shipped
this was a few days ago

[obtuse igloo]

i remember listenign to the CEO about not doing cheap keyboards cause wooting is a premium brand.. now they got dudes with wobbly keyboard cases and i saw one zinc case that was missing the hole for the USB cable.

nothing about this has felt premium at all

anyway bro im sure my keyboard and your keyboard are the very last 2 kbs sitting on the pallet. mines coming to canada and yours is going next door to their warehouse and we'll be rocking in no time

[thin summit]

i hope… lol

[obtuse igloo]

[thin summit]

we got a little screwed over too, since shipping itself will take longer now too because of black friday

[obtuse igloo]

youre telling me! canada postal workers went on strike this week (I was EXPECTED to get my keyboard nov15th) so we'll see how all this shakes out

might have my keyboard in time for POE3

[thin summit]

yeah my first estimation was nov 4 lol

it is now dec 2

almost a whole month

[obtuse igloo]

haha busine$$ baby

[spark pulsar]

right who do i have to bribe to go pack up and send mine?

[humble cargo]

sure is unfortunate how these product defects got through QC but those affected will have it sorted out

[limber herald]

do you guys feel above the wasd keys a little warm?

[humble cargo]

qc staff could use a whipping though, scratches and unevenness on cases is sorta understandable to be missed sometimes but that case without a usb port hole is crazy

[dawn pagoda]

that was posted here?

[humble cargo]

yeah, last week iirc

[lime falcon]

there were 2 without usb port hole

[buoyant solstice]

[humble cargo]

am honestly kinda bewildered how such a thing made it past checks, I think the qc test guy needs to undergo a qc test as well

[tight swallow]

Assembly even, dont they need to install the daughterboard, so they should have a good look at it then

[lime falcon]

well its hard to check 40 000 keyboards

[tight swallow]

That is also true

[humble cargo]

at least mount the connector board in the case that has the usb-c port on it

would it even be possible to mount that board there without the port cutout

[tight swallow]

No clue how it sits but possibly as long as the port starts just behind the hole

[humble cargo]

don't know about the zinc but pcr has the port receded a mm or two

[lime falcon]

same

[merry shore]

YAY

[honest quiver]

Whys my wooting 80he turning off randomly with 8k polling 😿

[lime falcon]

https://discord.com/channels/167181566978555904/1309425793704792064

theres test firmware, that might help you with the issue

[honest quiver]

Alr thanks

[fleet ridge]

any sales for black friday?

[alpine warren]

I need help from someone in Wooting please. My order has been stuck at Ready To Pack for over a month, meaning they have had all my items in their warehouse for over 30 days and still haven't shipped!!!! I have tried contacting them multiple times but I get an automated response every time. Today I got the attached email from them which literally says to reply directly so I can get proper support from their team, which I did but guess what? I got another automated response making it a dead end lmao. Needless to say all the points they listed are ok from my end

[obtuse igloo]

what batch u apart of brother

[alpine warren]

EU-Brug. My order was placed on Aug 24 and original delivery date was Nov 17

[obtuse igloo]

I'm going to keep it real with you. As a fellow EU-BRUG brother - some of are absolutly cursed. My shipping date was Nov 11th~ and been pushed to December 7th so far.

I can tell you that eventually they answer their emails at [e-mail] but my guy hasn't been much help either.

I was on ready to pack for a month and now onto the next step (pick and pack) for a week now. (they told us pick and pack was a day or two)

In #📦│batch_updates they said Zinc ANSI keyboards will be done by Friday this week (tomorrow). So if by tomorrow we dont have updates, then um.. yeah idk brother we f*kd

[alpine warren]

Thank you. At least it is comforting to know I am not alone

[sharp summit]

Website style is missing

[sharp summit]

@placid whale

[mild swift]

Did Wooting just increase the voltage for the 80he to make it more stable which will also increase the ultra low latency from the low voltage output?

[mild swift]

How long did it take for you to receive email back from Wooting?

[obtuse igloo]

about a month

after sending NOT AND EDIT twice

NOT AN EDIT*

[zinc ermine]

If I order wooting 60he how long does it take to be delivered

For me it says 1-2 weeks

[low token]

If it is instock In eu few days

[mild swift]

When you edited it you mean like send another email or replay to them in the same email you just sent them the first time?

[molten cairn]

Same situation here, ordered in late August and been getting delayed

[glacial wedge]

no

[obtuse igloo]

always replied to the same email and they were asking me to type "NOT AN EDIT" in the email body to let them know that I wasn't looking to edit my order. I guess it was a way to get past the automated system.

[mild swift]

Okay so it’ll be about a month before they respond.

[obtuse igloo]

It was for me bro. I really don't know what to tell you. I'm baffled at this whole process. Was the 60HE like this? If it was, it doesn't feel like much was learned from it

[steel quiver]

There's only so much a small team can do

[idle elk]

I was just wondering are there any threads/websites thats show off people's RGB effects? Or is there an easy way to copy an RGB profile to a different profile?

[obtuse igloo]

I think you are a good guy who has a good heart but this a business with a CEO and a board of directors - the issues of scaling a business and increasing workforce / resources towards manufacturing and distribution are all part of a business major / MBAs curriculum. They wanna send a bunch of keyboards to influencers, show up to trade shows, push out huge group buys, then can't deliver on fulfillment or QC. Now we are seeing issues with 8k polling rates. I bought a wooting because I like what they stood for (vs a keychron q1he for example) but the room for improvement seems massive

[steel quiver]

The issue with hiring so many is if they don't wanna turn into the others they need to hire and vet a ton of people I also highly doubt they get a ton of applicants

I have no desired to truly defend them the issue shouldn't happen

[midnight iron]

don't bother ritsu. We've reached stage 2 of the 'my keyboard hasn't shipped and everything is doomed and awful' stage

it will calm down once they get their keyboards lol

[obtuse igloo]

I can respect that but you need to scale back sales if you can't fulfill. Even apple used to run out of iphones and would have to put "sold out" signs until they could replenish.

sno yo uare so condecending its disgusting

[midnight iron]

have you looked at your last post. You're basically passing judgement over an entire company based on your keyboard being a bit late lol

a bit of an extreme reaction.

[obtuse igloo]

sno not everything is about you bro leave me alone LOL always on me everytime i post in here

[last solar]

I think that the quality of the keyboard makes the wait worth it

[midnight iron]

you're posting in a public discord, not your personal blog. We can talk here too.

[obtuse igloo]

i know man and ur obsessed with me

[last solar]

They do have really good warranty and quality so a wait of a month or two isn’t all that bad considering how fast time goes

[obtuse igloo]

u hit the bell for notifications or something?

[humble cargo]

thing is these things happen to every company, you rarely see their problems being exposed for the world to see like you do with wooting though, at the very least they're being as transparent as they can and openly show everything that happens

[midnight iron]

or maybe i'm just someone who types here a lot and you think it's targeted for no reason

who knows? one seems more likely though.

[obtuse igloo]

telling people not to speak to me LOL ok dad

[midnight iron]

if you want to go full karen mode go for it, but don't get upset if other people spectate and comment

[obtuse igloo]

nightman i promise you if other companies had their orders run months late and had QA issues (remember iphones that bent?) that we would hear about it

[midnight iron]

oh you mean like almost every other keyboard company in the space

[obtuse igloo]

bro now you resulting to insulting me jesus man go hit the slopes or something u seem cooked

[midnight iron]

none of your takes make any logical sense and can be refuted heavily is the issue

outside of "yeah we get you're annoyed and yeah it sucks that your keyboard is delayed" everything else is hyperbole exaggeration

[steel quiver]

At this point where convo has gone ima stop replying n go to yt

[obtuse igloo]

hahahaha refuting that the keyboard been getting delayed - same way you refuted there was anything wrong with the shipment until they posted an update saying that there was something wrong with it

[humble cargo]

sure we would, but how would the company itself adress it

[steel quiver]

https://tenor.com/view/bridgerton-luke-newton-tip-of-hat-bye-farewell-gif-22437890

[midnight iron]

a wise move

[humble cargo]

to take one of your examples apple, they'll do anything to shift blame or downplay the issue with statements like "don't hold it like that" "don't sit on it" or be silent for years until the problem is substantial enough for them to actually consider compensations

[last solar]

Most people who order get their product and use it and stay quiet, then you have people with problems who will shout and complain which is totally their right but it makes up a very small minority of the customers

[humble cargo]

yes wooting is slow at adressing the issues at times but you can be pretty assured that you'll be taken care of eventually

[midnight iron]

at some point the conversation jumped the shark when it went from "my keyboard is late this sucks" to "my keyboard is late therefore this proves that all your marketing, scaling, qc, software firmware and workforce are wrong and the company is a failure"

[obtuse igloo]

pls dont use quotation marks if ur making shit up

[last solar]

Not to mention how Wooting can easily change the warranty to about a year, but they don’t. They also are very trustworthy in not screwing you over if something goes wrong with shipping or the product itself

[midnight iron]

yeah if anything is sucks that wooting has early shipping issues with the 80he, but they've handled it much better than a lot of other keyboard brands typically do

[obtuse igloo]

"I bought a wooting because I like what they stood for (vs a keychron q1he for example) but the room for improvement seems massive"

= "COMPANY IS A FAILURE"

[midnight iron]

having been part of the zoom75 group buy i remember the mess of issues that came later lol

[obtuse igloo]

classic SNO

[last solar]

You’re barking

[midnight iron]

"I think you are a good guy who has a good heart but this a business with a CEO and a board of directors - the issues of scaling a business and increasing workforce / resources towards manufacturing and distribution are all part of a business major / MBAs curriculum. They wanna send a bunch of keyboards to influencers, show up to trade shows, push out huge group buys, then can't deliver on fulfillment or QC. Now we are seeing issues with 8k polling rates. I bought a wooting because I like what they stood for (vs a keychron q1he for example) but the room for improvement seems massive"

^ seems a bit excessive no

[obtuse igloo]

no its FACT

[last solar]

Calm down bro it’s not that serious

[winter nebula]

FART

[last solar]

You’re gonna get your keyboard soon lmao

[midnight iron]

it is indeed fart

[obtuse igloo]

i see some of u

[winter nebula]

Seems like super serious convo going on here.

[obtuse igloo]

yall not hiding what u are

[midnight iron]

my keyboard was actually delayed even longer than his originally lol

you don't have to jump the shark just because of some shipment delays

[winter nebula]

Wait did we get found out?

[last solar]

I have to wait till March but you don’t see me calling the company trash, sure they can improve but valid criticism is okay. What’s not okay is downplaying them solely for the time it takes to get your product

[obtuse igloo]

ya'll arguing with ghosts

bro this guy said he wants his keyboard RIGHT NOW and he HATES wooting! lets get him!!!

[obtuse igloo]

👨‍🌾

[humble cargo]

I do get the frustration but at the end of the day they're at least taking measures to fix the issues and deliver the product they intended, I could think of way worse ways of dealing with these problems

[high mica]

I just preordered a 80HE whats everyone yappin about

[steel quiver]

Why r people still arguing

[midnight iron]

it's just people venting. Same old story for every batch

[winter nebula]

No idea. I think someone is upset they don't have theirs yet.

[obtuse igloo]

cuz sno came in here and made a bunch of bad faith arguments and misquoted me - same old story

[high mica]

just be patient

[midnight iron]

i like that he thinks I target his posts or something and not that I'm just working from a computer and type in this discord during the day lol

[winter nebula]

I don't have to be, I'm typing on it right now 🕴️

[high mica]

you like it? what switches you got?

[winter nebula]

It's great! After trying a bunch of switches I've landed on Jade Pros.

[midnight iron]

jade pros are real good value right now with the black friday sales

[winter nebula]

Also tried Jade (OGs), Lekker 45/60, Geon RAW HE 50

[high mica]

are the sticky rice v2 fixed? no more issues?

heard v1 had some problems

[midnight iron]

even with the raw he being the better value option normally, i think jade pros are literally same price as raw he right now during the sale

[humble cargo]

some companies would just choose to ignore the concerns about warped cases or marks and carry on shipping as normal

[last solar]

If price didn’t matter would you guys get Jade Pros or Raws

[midnight iron]

they are fixed, although it's still a fairly mediocre switch honestly and there are better options

[winter nebula]

Dang there's a sale on Jade Pros? I was just telling my wife earlier that I didn't think I'd bite on a set for my 60, but... struggle

[midnight iron]

yeah i legitimately have an offer on aliexpress for 70 at $30 right now

the discount stack there is a lot

[high mica]

better options like? recs pls

[midnight iron]

jade pros right now for example

[winter nebula]

I've never used aliexpress, but consider me tempted

[high mica]

I liked the sound sticky rice had from some videos i was looking through
