When I have Tachyon Mode enabled I cannot set brightness to 100% on keys - it's ok, understandable but I do not understand why light indicator is capped in terms of effects

I can set 100% brightness for light indicator but I cannot set any "effects" for it

[buoyant solstice]

Because Tachyon Mode disables effects. 🙂

[upbeat berry]

brightness is capped cause of power reasons. thats smth you can try and circumvent with more stable power. but rgb effects actually dig into the scanrate as they need time to process especially ones related to keypresses

[high forge]

understandable

I thought there was separate rgb controller

[upbeat berry]

there is but talking to it and waiting for the rgb state to have been changed takes ages

and reading during it updating the rgb actively would cause the analog values to be even more noisy

[high forge]

interesting - why do you need to wait for rgb state?

[upbeat berry]

given the space its just really hard to properly separate the analog sensor traces and rgb voltage traces in a way where they dont influence each other at all

[high forge]

thanks for explaining that, I thought there would be two different controllers, one for rgb and second for keyboard overall

I love zinc alloy so much

I feel more secure with it

[cunning pewter]

oh wow i ordered geon raws and frost case and lekkers were so much brighter...

[timber forge]

i just got and installed my new 80he, i find the backspace button being a lil stiffer than the other buttons, something i could do?

[simple crown]

don't use it

[winter nebula]

I would take off the keycap and see if the stabilizer stems are both moving freely with your hand

[timber forge]

sound advice, but i was looking for something more serious

[timber forge]

i'll try

they do

[winter nebula]

Is it stiffer throughout the whole press?

Maybe your switch is wonky. Try swapping it out for one of the extras you received.

(note that must unplug/replug it in after doing a switch swap)

[fallow flare]

Has anyone had problems with rgb not working in specific buttons? i just installed my new 80he, but there is no rgb in my ENTER button, and yes i have rotated the switch the correct way according to the ISO tutorial. There is simply no light at all, while every other buttons are working fine..

[timber forge]

yeah it was, swapped the switch and now is working fine!

[hot jay]

It just arrived

[worldly dagger]

How do I remove a switch

[boreal socket]

With a switch puller

[worldly dagger]

My fingers are actually starting to hurt trying to get it out, and the last one I removed made some very unfriendly noises

Yes I'm using the included switch remover, and yes I'm squeezing the tabs on the top and bottom

And I've tried wiggling it too

But I don't think it should require 6lbs of force to remove a switch, right?

[bright jewel]

some of the switches can be a tight fit yes, for me personally slow and steady wiggling was very successful if a switch didnt wanna butch

[worldly dagger]

What if one side is stuck?

For me it was the bottom on the first one, the right on the second

[bright jewel]

are you talking about a specific switch on the keyboard. I dont think that matters. All I can say is keep trying hehe

[worldly dagger]

It genuinely feels like the switch puller is gonna break before it comes out 💀

The fact this is a hobby for people is insane

[boreal socket]

We enjoy pain

[bright jewel]

no pain no gain

[boreal socket]

But yeah, take your time, see if you're able to wiggle a little and see how that goes

Is it on a 80HE?

[worldly dagger]

Sounded like something broke but it came out 😁

And it looks like it's in 1 piece

[worldly dagger]

Yes

I rate my experience a 1/10 tho

[boreal socket]

Lekker switches?

[worldly dagger]

Yep

[boreal socket]

[boreal socket]

9 more switches to go then!~

[worldly dagger]

Okay now it's a 8/10

I think I'll remove every switch now so it's easier in the future

Whoever put these in needs to be fired

Not even oil filter tighteners go this far

[boreal socket]

What are you replacing them for?

[worldly dagger]

I was just trying the banana switch

It sounds really cool, and similar to my gfs keyboard which I absolutely love, hers also has yellow switches, but they're not analog

Now I'm gonna order some banana switches and torture myself

[boreal socket]

I didn't even know there were banana split HE switches

Do you have a link?

[worldly dagger]

They're just yellow

I didn't know banana split switches exist

[boreal socket]

those are banana split switches I was thinking of

[worldly dagger]

I was thinking yellow and white normal banana

Ig it's an inverted banana since the inside is yellow

[bright jewel]

i want these if theres an he one, just for the colours hahah

[boreal socket]

I just googled, there aren't

[worldly dagger]

How does one disassemble a switch

Any recommended tools, or fingers

[bright jewel]

[boreal socket]

https://wooting.io/product/blank-switch-toolkit?Option=Switch+tool+set

[worldly dagger]

That looks easier

[boreal socket]

This is the easiest, but you can technically do without

[worldly dagger]

I'll go with the easiest :D

Pulling switches is already a nightmare

[sinful kettle]

so i wonder what does the wooting80he get included with?

like do you get only 60G or only 45G or both?

[worldly dagger]

3 60g switches, 1 45g switch

A few blank keycaps
Switch and keycap puller, a cable, and 3 different feet sizes

The 45g is basically just a demo switch

[bright jewel]

WHITE ZINC UPDATE VIDEO https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0H4vHGmPIxs&ab_channel=Wooting

[worldly dagger]

And the others are to replace the defaults

[boreal socket]

The preassembled one comes with Lekker60v2s by default

If you go with the module, you're able to select other switches

[sinful kettle]

is it cheaper to self assembel even if you have 0 expiernce?

[boreal socket]

(including the newly arrived Geon or TTCs)

[worldly dagger]

I believe my preassembler glued them in :(

The amount of force required is insane

[viral belfry]

How do i apply this on my wooting

How do i apply that

[boreal socket]

Turn it around, stick it in there

[humble sluice]

pull out the flat ones from the bottom of your 80HE

[worldly dagger]

The bottom, push it in

[viral belfry]

u mean the white thing behind my wooting

[buoyant solstice]

They're taller feet to replace the two back ones, yes

[worldly dagger]

Yeah they're on the top

[sinful kettle]

and if you choose the module im assuming you hve to assemble it yourself?

[boreal socket]

Indeed!

[worldly dagger]

Yep

[viral belfry]

omg i was too scared to remove this

lmaooo

[worldly dagger]

I remove mine every day 😭

I actually despise the design cause they always fall off in my bag so I have to take them off every day twice

[viral belfry]

idk it felt not well for me to remove that thing

[sinful kettle]

is it somehow more expensive to buy the module + switches + plastic case + keycaps than it is to get a full pre assembled one?

[boreal socket]

I swear I'm not trying to upsell ... but https://wooting.io/product/wooting-travel-case-80he?Type=Travel+Case+80HE

[viral belfry]

thanks guys have a nice day 🙂

[worldly dagger]

Yeah... I don't have the money at the moment 😭

Maybe in a month

[sinful kettle]

mind if i ask but how do i come out at 230 euros with assemble yourself and 220 pre-assembled?

sry if this is the wrong channel to ask it just seems like i might have made a small mistake

[boreal socket]

Probably different keycaps, or possibly different switches

[buoyant solstice]

Additional packaging and stocking fees.

[sinful kettle]

oh that actually amkes alot more sense lol

[boreal socket]

or that!

[worldly dagger]

I wonder when wooting will release a 16Khz keyboard that needs it's own power supply

[sinful kettle]

😭

[buoyant solstice]

Only 16khz? We have competitors claiming 35k (With zero explanation how they got to that number of course)

[worldly dagger]

Then it might have 0.2 ms response time

If we get 16Khz

[worldly dagger]

Usb ports can't deliver that kind of power unless it's a thunderbolt 4 😭

[nova nexus]

Oh this went live today, so now today is this week which means I gotta get to work

[worldly dagger]

Or a specially designed power delivery port which doesn't exist on any motherboard that I know of

[worldly dagger]

Wait where's your explanation of how you got to 8Khz

[bright jewel]

godspeed Mark

[strong cosmos]

I can’t wait for it to come dude

Especially the fact that it comes with the zinc alloy case Mmmm

I’m so excited. Waiting for that tracking number … 🤞🤞🤞🤞

[boreal socket]

[snow canyon]

Mark please call the new v2 white zinc batch something related to Edging

[worldly dagger]

Is there a Japanese keycap that supports RGB?

[nova nexus]

They're already named unfortunately

[strong cosmos]

what are they named

i look so unserious with this pfp im crying

[nova nexus]

They're part of the purchase orders of Dolphin and Seabass

[sinful kettle]

can you set the actuation distance per key?

[snow canyon]

Nooooooooooooooooo

[buoyant solstice]

Not from us. 🙂

[worldly dagger]

Is there one anywhere

[buoyant solstice]

Couldn't tell you to be honest.

[cloud fern]

can someone please explain how ur supposed to do this step

like i cant for the life of me get it in 😭

[buoyant solstice]

Did you follow the video?

[worldly dagger]

Trying to plug in a cord?

[cloud fern]

in the video it looks so easy but its not going in

[worldly dagger]

Looks like you're gonna wanna pinch above the plastic part, and push the brick

[worldly dagger]

Check the orientation and that it properly lines up with the connector

Triple check

[cloud fern]

i have no idea what u mean

https://youtu.be/Sl3E2xZpHjo?si=_34D2GduIsLhcDQi even in this video the guy had trouble on that part its so confusing 😭😭

[worldly dagger]

By brick I mean the plastic part at the end of the cable

You wanna grab the cord right before the plastic block, and just push the block inside

You do have to push pretty hard for these connectors, it's normal

[cloud fern]

i dont think its working unless im just dumb and idk 😭

[carmine idol]

Hey
What's the benefits of getting the metal zinc over the plastic ?.or is it just personal preference

[worldly dagger]

So DOUBLE CHECK the orientation first, and give it a real hard shove

[worldly dagger]

Metal sounds better and is more durable

[cloud fern]

how do u even know when its connected it keeps falling out

[worldly dagger]

When it doesn't fall out

Let me find my old server pc, it should have a connector like that

[boreal socket]

Is your module resting inside the case, or outside the case?

[cloud fern]

i feel like i might accidentally break this atp why is this so hard 😭😭

[cloud fern]

outside

[worldly dagger]

You won't if the orientation is correct

These cables are normally hard to plug in

[cloud fern]

what do u mean by orientation

[worldly dagger]

Like is it upside down

[cloud fern]

yes

[worldly dagger]

Or right side up

[cloud fern]

its facing the same way like the video

[worldly dagger]

Check the actual cable, not just the video

[worldly dagger]

Ohhh so that's the cable

[cloud fern]

like i legit dont know 💀

[worldly dagger]

Show me the connector on the board rq

Like the inside of it

[sinful kettle]

i just realized this is coo

[sinful kettle]

but why is it there?

[worldly dagger]

So you see how in the connector the top has slits on the side that go out wider?

Your cable also has those slits

Line those up

Wiggle it left and right if needed, and just shove it in there

If anything I just said doesn't make sense, tell me

[cloud fern]

yeah no i might break this by accident atp

[worldly dagger]

As long as those slits are lined up, you're good

[cloud fern]

do i have to twist my cable??

[worldly dagger]

You're going to have to use an uncomfortable amount of force to put it in

No no, you dont

But these cables are known for being a pain in the ass to remove

So it's not gonna go in easy

[cloud fern]

im gonna lose my mind

this is not locking in no matter how much force i use

wth is this design 😭

[worldly dagger]

It's 25 years old

Been used in computers since basically forever

[cloud fern]

idk what im doing wrong

[worldly dagger]

If u wanna do a video call I could take a look at it

[cloud fern]

its not going in all the way

[worldly dagger]

And see what you're messing up

https://discord.com/channels/167181566978555904/167181566978555905

You can turn on a camera in this vc if you'd like more help

[cloud fern]

its going in slightly better after ive twisted the cable

😭😭 is it supposed to be like tht

[cloud fern]

uhh idk how ill show it

[worldly dagger]

I'm not sure what u mean by twisted the cable

got another picture?

[cloud fern]

nvm it fell out

idk anymore

[worldly dagger]

that looks like its correct

the cable wont go in AT ALL if its incorrect

if you got it somewhat in, keep pushing

but there's a small chance im wrong

this picture isn't really the angle i need

i'd need to see like parallel to the actual pins inside the connector

[cloud fern]

ah well now its not going in at all

[lime falcon]

is that small dot facing you while connecting?

[cloud fern]

ive been trying that for 20 mins

[cloud fern]

which one

[worldly dagger]

mb i was wrong i was wrong,

try with the red on the left side

[lime falcon]

this small blue dot should be facing you whole connecting the cable

[cloud fern]

its not facing me if the red cable is on the right

[worldly dagger]

correct

make sure the red is on the left

[worldly dagger]

yes thats correct

[cloud fern]

like this?? but its not going in

[worldly dagger]

hold on lemme try a method of explaining that might work better

gonna get som edited pictures

[cloud fern]

😭😭 im legit losing it now my cables just bent and falling out

fml i shouldve just ordered a regular one

[lime falcon]

yes thats correct, bend the cable slightly and plug it in, then push it in with your nail

[worldly dagger]

so u see these parts on the edge of the connector?

[bright jewel]

you gott push in yourself a bit, its not 'smooth' slide in https://youtu.be/LNa5wuqiFVY?si=QlCsz6fv1kwkks3j&t=118

[worldly dagger]

your cable also has these

[cloud fern]

how do u know if its in for good

[cunning pewter]

is it just me or leds with geon raws are really much darker than lekker v2s? anyone had both and can elaborate?

[worldly dagger]

you need to line up those notches on the side

[cunning pewter]

plug in the keyboard and see if its working

[worldly dagger]

then it will go in

[worldly dagger]

push it in more

[coarse crest]

Use your fingernail to secure it in, if it doesn’t wobble out, you should be ok

[worldly dagger]

you have to push really hard

[coarse crest]

first time with JST is usually worst

2nd is marginally better and 3rd is no problem

[worldly dagger]

that's what the connector is called?

[lime falcon]

dont push really hard you might damage the connector

[coarse crest]

The cable yeah

[lime falcon]

just push it and then put the module carefully on the case

[worldly dagger]

great

[lime falcon]

yes

[cloud fern]

idk if itll go farther

[worldly dagger]

that's in

one side is a bit loose, the left side, but thats good enough

[coarse crest]

I’d try to push on the left side a little more so both sides are equal, but other than that should be good

Then you can secure it into the little notch in the case and should be up and running 🙂

[cloud fern]

i really dont think its going in further 😭

[lime falcon]

thats good enough

[coarse crest]

If it doesn’t go in more just leave it as is

Worst case it’ll unconnect and you’ll need to reconnect, but only has happened to me once or twice

[cloud fern]

now its like

not straight

[nova nexus]

If I were to give them new names, what suggestions do you have?

[cloud fern]

idk how to explain

[coarse crest]

@cloud fern now you wanna line up the PCB into the case so it fits nicely

[bright jewel]

can I recommend, sheep, llama, and alpaca batch (if you need a match of 3)

[worldly dagger]

its not going to fall into position naturally, you have to move it into the correct location

[bright jewel]

@cloud fern I suggest you follow along with the video I linked :)

[cloud fern]

okay i th ink i did it

[cloud fern]

could u please send it again i think i missed it

[nova nexus]

Sheep/Schaap is already taken

[bright jewel]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LNa5wuqiFVY&t=8s&ab_channel=Wooting

[nova nexus]

2023 batch of take control keycaps 😦

[cloud fern]

thanks

[bright jewel]

geit/goat ?

[nova nexus]

Goat is taken too

Upcoming batch of 80He cases

[bright jewel]

llama, alpaca and huarizo batch then?

[winter nebula]

Mountain goats in particular. White, and absolute masters of edging.

[cloud fern]

in the video the guy states to leave a gap and place cable somewhere is it supposed to go between the two line thingies

[nova nexus]

Mountain goat is pretty good yea

[winter nebula]

Yes, it's supposed to go between the two small posts you see there.

[cloud fern]

okay thank u

[marble vale]

A white zinc update? God has blessed me today

[cloud fern]

btw when ur assembling the keyboard for the first time are u supposed to lube up the switches or wtv its called? or is it fine if i just plug them in

[bright jewel]

nope

they come factory lubed

[cloud fern]

oh cool thanks

and its normal to use force to push them in right im worried i might break stuff 😭 some keys arent going in as well as others

[bright jewel]

you gotta press them in until you hear a clear clack

and be sure to put them in the correct way (led window facing north)

[cloud fern]

yaa ive been doing that

tysm!! appreciate all the help

[bright jewel]

then you should be good

[cloud fern]

if we use english are we supposed to install it like this?

instead of just how it was

[jagged dune]

Fuck yeah that White ZINC V2 News 😃

[buoyant solstice]

Whaddya mean... how it was?

[cloud fern]

like how it came in the packaging

[buoyant solstice]

If your keyboard had keycaps preinstalled, then you have US American.

What you're sharing above is ISO - UK. A different layout with different keycaps and layout. So no. 😄

[cloud fern]

or like do we do it like this

[cloud fern]

i got the custom 80 he+

[buoyant solstice]

You know what. Let's stop guessing. Take a photo of the keyboard why don't you 😄

[cloud fern]

im american so then do i just install it like how it came?

[buoyant solstice]

So it didn't come like that. You started putting them on 😄

[cloud fern]

oh i meant like how it came in the packaging lmao

[cloud fern]

u misunderstood me

[buoyant solstice]

This is what you want to check against.

[cloud fern]

so add the keycaps that way?

[buoyant solstice]

Yep

[cloud fern]

okay thank you

[winter nebula]

Yes, there is an 80HE module for sale.

[nova nexus]

You can forcefully remove the case from your cart

[buoyant solstice]

Just keep in mind. No case means no USB cable or daughterboard

[snow canyon]

I might have to think of a few

https://tenor.com/view/great-power-great-responsibility-spiderman-uncle-ben-gif-14601928

[slim socket]

Q , when can we order 80he white ? Just saw the youtube video and it doesn't say , I'm talking about new orders

[clever timber]

Gold plated 80he when?

[nova nexus]

Some time in the next week or two

[slim socket]

Cheers

[cold granite]

Just got my zinc 80 he any recommendations how to setup rapid trigger for valorant - it's my first ever woofing ?

[sacred dock]

was the wooting 80 he supposed to come with anything other then the case? i saw in a video it came with a key puller but i only got the keyboared, carrying case, and card

[cold granite]

I received key/ switch puller , usb c wire , card , extra screws

[buoyant solstice]

We have an unboxing video on YouTube.

Please check you received everything, and be sure to reach out via the website if anything is missing.

[sinful kettle]

you get a key/switch puller without having to pay extra?

[sacred dock]

thats why i asked in the video it shows stuff i didn't receive but on the website it wasn't listed as included.

[sinful kettle]

does everything in the video come just by purchasing the complete default wooting 80he?

without buying extra stuff

[buoyant solstice]

Yes.

[long dome]

Should be getting my 80HE tonight

I'm excited

[buoyant solstice]

We have a video for preassembled and one for module.

Keycaps are the exception of course. Only ANSI preassembled keyboards have those on the board

[sacred dock]

ok sorry to ask again but i should reach out via the website if i only got the case and keyboard?

[distant monolith]

excited to see the new (finally) estimate for white zinc V2 😄

[buoyant solstice]

Like I said - If the video doesn't match up to what you received, yes.

[sacred dock]

okay thanks sorry for asking more than once i just didnt wanna be a hassle to support

[buoyant solstice]

I mean... bit late for that. But that's okay 😄

You should of course receive what you paid for.

[sacred dock]

sorry

[buoyant solstice]

It's fine. I chose to respond outside of work hours. 😄

[sage tendon]

anyone got a Warframe profile for 80he?

[median beacon]

hi quick question its been a few weeks since i dont checked wooting updates and i saw on their site its now out of beta and got a few new versions, i am rn on 5.0.0 beta this was the newest 3-4 weeks ago, is the newst 5.0.2 from today out of beta good and stable to download?

[gloomy whale]

the zinc alloy is HEAVY holy

[shell heath]

yooo that looks awesome

[ionic kestrel]

Zinc case, much heavier than I expected, but that's not a complaint.

no magnets, nice and chonky though

Doesn't seem to move unless I want to move it

[ruby schooner]

I’m glad production of V2 already beginning start of march!

The time is almost!!

When will V2 be posted via website?

[ruby schooner]

1 and a half month, let’s go!

So excited to get hands on the 80he!

[sour saddle]

wdym?

for order?

[ruby schooner]

Yes

[magic moon]

wa

[sour saddle]

It will be probably available for order in march somewhere

After every order has been processed who already made the descision for a v2 in the past

If not, Mark will correct me here

[hushed spindle]

Hello all, was just wondering if anyone has replaced the stock stabilizers with the Durock ones (or any other stabilizers really), and if it's worth doing so.

Also, do I have to apply lube to them? Anything else I might need?

[wispy cloud]

Hi everyone, it seems that everything on the right hand side of the keyboard (including backspace, enter, backslash, shift, and fn) has stopped working. It lights up when I press the key, but there's nothing that happens. Any advice?

[sour saddle]

create a ticket on their website https://wooting.io/

[wispy cloud]

How long does it usually take them to respond?

[sour saddle]

It depends how much other tickets are open atm

But you will recieve the most helpful response there and maybe even an replancement part

[wispy cloud]

Alright

Has anyone else had this issue?

[sour saddle]

Probably not

But I can't confirm

[wispy cloud]

how do I reset the wooting 80he?

[sour saddle]

I don't own it yet, so I can't explain it to you

Maybe through Wootility?

[wispy cloud]

cant seem to figure out how to do that

im using another keyboard that i have rn, but it doesnt make sense that it broke THIS early.

i took extremely good care of it and I only got it like 2 weeks ago

[sour saddle]

Oh really. I am sorry to hear that..

[wispy cloud]

yeah :(

im praying it's just something with the onboard memory or smth cause it doesnt make sense that ALL of those keys would fail at once

[sour saddle]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f9f8PAI3XJI

Try this

But

It may not work cuz like you have said, the right keys dont work

[wispy cloud]

yeahhh

[sour saddle]

It worked? 😄

[wispy cloud]

i dont have an order number either cause my dad got it for me

no

[sour saddle]

Oh

[wispy cloud]

it worked fine last night :(

[sour saddle]

then ask your dad about the order number

[wispy cloud]

he's not home atm unfortunately ill ask him later

but i dont understand WHY the right hand keys arent working

i had it so the keys light up when I press them and they all LIGHT UP

[sour saddle]

I dont know either

[wispy cloud]

ok i just had to reset all the keyboard settings

thank fuck dude, i would have flipped my shit if I had had to send it back

[sour saddle]

😂

[sour saddle]

Nice to hear

[wispy cloud]

what's the wootility setting that changes a key's color when you press it and fades away>

Not jelly or AOE

nvm

[vale quail]

Can someone tell me if it’s okay if I lay this in some iso to soak ?

[stray sentinel]

Anyone have good recommendations for a 60HE Aluminum Case? I’ve never looked into higher end keyboards or taken one apart so the more beginner friendly the better. (w/o sacrificing quality, Sub $150)

[atomic brook]

do you care about colour and or slight nicks

[stray sentinel]

If they are noticeable from 2-3 feet away then yes, otherwise no. I prefer neutral colors. (Black, White, Silver, Grays)

I already bought a 60HE+ and my plan is to have this board be my first one I sink some time and effort into.

[atomic brook]

tofu redux, gh60, frog leggera, wooting's optimum, frog mini, nk's random colour b stock salv

btw this is a 80he channel

[stray sentinel]

there isnt a 60he channel

[atomic brook]

yes, there isnt any

[stray sentinel]

not available to me, no.

The Tofu is one of the more popular options, yeah?

[proper orchid]

woohoo! my wooting80he has reached

[tight quail]

If I buy a wooting 80he

Whats the first mod I should do

is there anything I should just buy with the 80he

[low token]

Depends on u

[tight quail]

Is there anything really common or obvious that people do?

[low token]

Well if people mod it they either go full in

Or do little mods like keycaps and switches

[tight quail]

Okay

thanks

[valid comet]

I like the Holy60 and Alumaze60 because both have the strap buckle

Holy60 has it as a removable accessory

[sleek pasture]

is there going to be a metal switch plate for the 80 He anytime soon?

[worthy oasis]

Its here :O

[neon thicket]

does this go hard? transparent caps + forst case

[buoyant solstice]

Not from us at least.

[woven basin]

mfking frost case enjoyers @neon thicket @worthy oasis

[worthy oasis]

[sick dock]

Hi , is this normal ? The Space key is brighter than all the other keys .

[spring oar]

yeh, spacebar have like 4/5 led

also directly pointing towards the keycaps rather than having to go through switches first.

[sick dock]

can i change this ?

[spring oar]

You could try manually adjusting the rgb value to be less bright

[sick dock]

in the rgb settings ?!

[spring oar]

yes

[sick dock]

ok thx mate

[sick dock]

is it possible to change the brightness of several keys ?

can´t find the settings for it

[buoyant solstice]

Pick a darker colour, paint the keys you want darker.

[urban edge]

All personal opinions, too much shine through imo, gonna put spider web keycaps on mine

[digital grotto]

hello, does anyone know how to assign a discord mute button on the wooting 80HE?

[austere finch]

my wooting has arrived

its great

its perfect

[boreal socket]

You can through your keybind discord settings 🙂

[austere finch]

How do you switch the feet

[slim socket]

I feel like the palm rest is way too big

[buoyant solstice]

You pull the two back ones out, and then you push a new set in.

[austere finch]

Thank for helping

[ornate pike]

I move my kb way too much while playing val lol, am gonna get some metal case itf to hopefully curb the issue

[slim socket]

@austere finch can u give us the dimensions of the wrist rest ?

[austere finch]

Yea gimme a sec

Want metric or imperial measurements?

[slim socket]

Metric

[smoky cobalt]

Yo, maybe dumb question but if I want to open up the keyboard do I have to take my keycaps off? I took out the 7 screws in the back already and I’m starting to crack dis bih

[vestal mica]

[neon thicket]

ya im bit iffy on the lettering too... might look for another set of caps 😭

[atomic brook]

deadline studio is good but quite pricy

[neon thicket]

woah they are very pretty

clean look :3

[faint roost]

took me 8 hours to lube this 😵‍💫

[hollow peak]

is the keyboard water resistant <_<

[faint roost]

note to self, south facing rgb legends still rock, despite the north facing leds 😎

[faint roost]

yes, but only once 🤣

[hollow peak]

wait so it it or No???

[faint roost]

it isnt

[hollow peak]

i accidentally bumped my latte over it <_<

not evenw resistant ? like i know not proof but

[faint roost]

disassemble, dab liquids really softly and directly, let it dry, hope and pray

[faint roost]

theres no certifications sooo

[hollow peak]

pains

im crying i dont even thinkw itsd been aw month

[buoyant solstice]

It is spill RESISTANT. Meaning if you immediately unplug it, take it apart and clean it (And leave it to dry), it should be fine.

[hollow peak]

well i cleaned it

[buoyant solstice]

Resistant does NOT mean "wipe off the keycaps and ignore the potential internal leak"

[hollow peak]

but it seems the the switches will be ah

perma latte color LMAO

[slim socket]

@faint roost that looks amazing , now we need sound test , also what kind of keycaps are those , and is it real wood >?

[hollow peak]

and used saome isopropyl alcohol wipes

[boreal socket]

Should be fine, make sure to give it some time to dry up

[hollow peak]

idk if its better that majority of the drink is milk and not water

[boreal socket]

If not fine, contact support and we’ll see what we can do

[hollow peak]

ya i right away flipped the keyboard on a towel and shook it abit

and took otu the switching and cleaned up most of the liquid on around the switches

am i good to clean the keycaps in like a waterbath? (prob get some distilled water)

[hollow peak]

Alright 👍

[boreal socket]

Yeah keycaps in water will be fine

[hollow peak]

Soap alright too or?

[faint roost]

ive never done a soundtest before lol

[atomic brook]

you dont need distilled water for keycaps

[faint roost]

and never built a akeyboard before this one XD

[atomic brook]

soap is fine ofc

[hollow peak]

i was just wondering abotu the soap if like the paint might come off

[hollow peak]

thats a cool look with the lights on wood

[faint roost]

i just kinda wish you could get these switches with iso nordic layout :(((( Im guessing everytime i want to do any type of symbol

[hollow peak]

im really happy i bought a bunch of microclothes as of recent

[boreal socket]

You should be fine with tap water + soap and lightly washing them

No need for distilled or anything too fancy 🙂

[analog vector]

If I buy switches separate, like the Wooting x TTC KOM, do I need to lube them?

[low token]

Ttc has basicly no lube. If it is not enough for you, you might do it

[analog vector]

gah and ofc LOYALTY_SWITCHES dosent apply

why do i get LOYALTY_SWITCHES after buying the keyboard with the lekker v2 switches xD

totally useless

[dark harness]

is it possible to make my movement in games more analog like on controller?

like make it so it moves more the further down i push the keys?

[upbeat berry]

yes but most games dont handle it well

[buoyant solstice]

You bought an 80HE and got the switches code?

[dark harness]

how do i test it?

because on geometry dash platformer mode i think it COULD work pretty well

[upbeat berry]

if you have a controller you use the left stick of it

and then keyboard/mouse for anything but movement

[dark harness]

oh

[upbeat berry]

the keyboard has to send controller data for analog movement

so this is the easiest way to test it

[dark harness]

i mean the keyboard can detect how far the button is pushed no?

so it cant do it directly?

[upbeat berry]

no keyboards dont have a way to send this data natively

[buoyant solstice]

TLDR; Can you play the game using only keyboard? Does it support controllers?

Then you can enable analog mode, at least on paper.

[upbeat berry]

this is a limitation of USB standards

our keyboards have to show up as a controller to enable analog movement because of this usb limitation

not to mention even if we made our own drivers and what not games wouldnt be able to use the data as they expect normal keyboards

[dark harness]

ah

makes sense

anyways, how do i turn off the light indicator showing how deep my key presses are? cus i selected sync with keyboard but its still showing it for some reason

[upbeat berry]

remove the rgb effect?

[dark harness]

not entirely

[upbeat berry]

if you dont want the lightbar to show depth of press you have to remove that specific rgb effect for depth of press from the lightbar

[upbeat berry]

progress bar

i assume that one uses the key press depth for the progress value

[dark harness]

yup, ty

i thought it was just like download bar stuff or smth

[upbeat berry]

yes

[woven basin]

😍

[dark harness]

Thats crazy nice

[upbeat berry]

its 0.1-3.5mm

[verbal solar]

is the actuation range of the geon raw he 0.1-3.4mm?

[sour saddle]

Has someone already an updated status on the v2 order?

[snow canyon]

think that would only happen towards the end of the month lol

[sour saddle]

Thought it will happen in the end of February

[distant monolith]

They said we will get an updated estimation within the week

So most likely by next Friday we should see a new estimate

1 month manufacturing + 1 month shipping (give 2 weeks delays) you are looking at mid May to get your keyboard probably

But reality is often disappointing so in reality it’s gonna be probably late May or even mid June

[vapid knot]

any reason why i have to disconnect and reconnect my wooting on startup

[hasty crag]

yo i just installed and removes signalrgb because of an issue
but now my wooting wont change colors anymore

[lime aspen]

Restart pc prob fine

Or replug keyboard

[lime aspen]

If this don't work just restart pc

[digital hearth]

Is "Gamepad" a global setting? Having 1 profile with gamepad enabled and another without it seems to not work

[hushed sinew]

gamepad is a global setting

[digital hearth]

Any way to change that?

[buoyant solstice]

There is not.

[hushed sinew]

unfortunately no

[digital hearth]

😦 Ok thanks
I have a couple games where it is broken if I don't disable gamepad

[hushed sinew]

I've played around internally with a keybind that switches it on and off, but there's several problems with that

I would like to make it an actual proper feature, maybe one day

because, yes, I've experienced this too

[digital hearth]

I was playing that new Marvel game and any time you make any keyboard input to move or change directions
It says "switching devices" on the screen and keeps playing an annoying beeping sound lol

[ornate pike]

replug the kb

signal rgb overrides wootility’s rgb control

[hasty crag]

thanks i found it out a bit after i asked haha

replug fixed it

after uninstalling signalrgb and fixing mmy issue

[merry wedge]

literally did the same thing with signal. Came here to look for solution. thanks

[rocky lodge]

my new wooting80 does not work on windows. leds are on when connected but no keys are working. in dual boot with linux it works just fine. i suppose it's something related to drivers in windows. how can i fix?

the reset macro (pause + right arrow) does not seem to be working

[hushed sinew]

What reset macro?

[buoyant solstice]

The keys you hold down on power up to get it into restore mode.

[rocky lodge]

it works in wootility but not in windows itself. super strange

[hushed sinew]

Could this be gamepad overriding digital keys?

Also, try another usb port

[rocky lodge]

the keyboard works on ubuntu, but not on windows. on windows, in wootility it registers keys being pressed but nothing happens on windows itself

if i enable gamepad it works...

[slow plank]

hmmm

maybe try a USB-A port?

[fair flame]

I'm having a bit of a problem with my 80HE if anyone here knows what could be the fix. Everytime I slam or anything bumps into my desk the keyboard will disconnect and reconnect instantly. Also happens whenever I'm in an intense moment in a game trying to use multiple cooldowns like and stuff.

only happened once in this example but idk i checked the cord and it's fully up to date

[atomic brook]

the cord as in?

[fair flame]

like the cord i checked it with a diff USB type C and still happens

[atomic brook]

u got a ph1 screwdriver?

[fair flame]

yeah.

[atomic brook]

u mind opening it up

the jst connector likely came loose

[fair flame]

yeah I can check it in a moment

[fair flame]

wow i think u found the issue lmao, reconncted and so far so good

[upper garden]

drakon the goat

[jade rose]

hire this man

[pure willow]

new member just arrived :D

hope it was worth the 345Euros 😅

[prisma fractal]

do I have to open wootility for my keyboard's rapid trigger, etc to work?

it was like that for my apex pro tkl

[lime falcon]

no

[jade rose]

same

[ripe atlas]

Hi ordered a keyboard about a month ago, it shipped to my local DPD depot, where for some reason it got recalled. That was about 2 weeks ago. Since then I’ve heard nothing and I have contacted support. Other than an automated response I have heard nothing. Who should I be talking to?

[buoyant solstice]

You just have to wait for a response from the customer support team really. We're still playing catch up. 🙂

[jade rose]

wait so since i ordered yesterday, what im hearing is don't listen to the 5-10 day shipping?

im a lil confused on that

should I be expecting it by next week?

[buoyant solstice]

I don't see how your question relates to theirs.

Their package was sent back to us for some reason by the courier.

[jade rose]

Ohh okay I thought it was a new order, scared me for a second since Im moving in 2 weeks lol

[nocturne schooner]

Are there any third aprty cases for the 80he?

[buoyant solstice]

GT80, Bone80

[analog vector]

Hm. Lets say I wanna bind a key to mute an audio device. What should I first bind that key too? Like for example "pause" or "prt sc", like I wanna remove those features first right?

So I dont print and mute

[buoyant solstice]

Whichever key you wish? There's plenty of them. Also FN layers.

[analog vector]

But im thinking I want like keys that dont do ANYTHING in windows but that i can bind in a specific app

[hushed sinew]

f13-f24

[analog vector]

Like if I bind them to numpad1 they still type 1 when i press it

ah ok thats smart

[buoyant solstice]

F13-F24 are unused by Windows. But again. Layers and personal preference aplenty 😄

This is my daily driver 80HE.

[analog vector]

Yea thanks, thats sounds like what im looking for :;)

[wispy trellis]

i was wondering why wootility doesent allow small selfmade shortcuts? is it design by choice or technical restrictations ? like small macros etc

[buoyant solstice]

Would require a background service first of all. Can't do this from the keyboard in hardware.

[distant monolith]

Hardware macros sound like the perfect tool for cheating

I remember somewhere Wooting had a statement they wanted to avoid anything related to cheating at all

[wispy trellis]

idk i just dont want a extra software doing that for me .. but oh well.. it is like it is

[buoyant solstice]

Unfortunately that's always going to be necessary. Cause a keyboard can't do anything beyond send keypresses in a sequence.

[tight cypress]

I mean there's DKS

[buoyant solstice]

DKS doesn't launch anything though. It does up to four keypresses in a sequence.

You still need something on the PC to go "oh I see F13, better launch this script, which starts an app"

[distant monolith]

I mean given a big enough onboard memory and cpu, it could be possible to create scripts for macros, store in keyboard memory and then launch it with a dedicated macro key for example…
Quite complicated for a very limited use, of which 98% will be cheating in games.

Of course given all they want is to execute key presses and not launch apps, etc

[buoyant solstice]

Exactly?

Keyboards offering recorded macros is nothing new - in hardware even.
But for any keyboard to launch an app, you're still reliant on the PC end of things doing that.

[ruby schooner]

I just realize next month is April, I hope we don’t get fooled with V2 release date. Probably going to be the most hilarious thing 😄

[buoyant solstice]

Error 455: Context for reply not found.

[distant monolith]

Why would we get fooled tho?

You know how estimations work? If it takes longer then so be it… Or would you rather have 0 info?

[terse summit]

What if

[ruby schooner]

You actually took me serious when I said that lol

Just funny to think of because the month April

[analog vector]

The small keycaps tool u get with the 80he, can that be used for switches?

[buoyant solstice]

Yes it has a a switch and a keycap end.

[strong cosmos]

Why does dpd end up sucking when I want them to be good. :C

[analog vector]

https://www.maxgaming.com/en/switches/magnetic-jade-linear-switch
Are these the same as on wooting website?

looks the same, a bit cheaper tho xD

[buoyant solstice]

Looks like it's the same switch. Not cheaper by much though. 🙂

[analog vector]

well including the shipping, its like 20 euro cheaper atleast

where i live

[buoyant solstice]

I just compared Germany to Germany. About five bucks cheaper or so on Max.

[analog vector]

880 SEK vs 1 022,00 SEK for me

with home delivery

850 SEK without home delivery

[buoyant solstice]

Yeah that's about... what... 10 euros?

SEK really do be having a bad day 😄

[analog vector]

I guess the upside is also, u can choose to add 10, instead of buying two packs for a fullsize

[buoyant solstice]

True. 2HE is a bit of an odd case.

[analog vector]

I just got my 80he so im putting my two he on the shelf xD

[dense ridge]

Mansen

Are there some plans for low profile keyboard?

[analog vector]

To remove the switches, do i need to open up the keyboard? or do they come out just after removing the keycaps? 😛

[dense ridge]

@analog vectoru dont need to open the keyboard

[buoyant solstice]

If you're removing more than a few, forget about the puller.

Take the keyboard apart and push them out from beneath the switch plate.

[analog vector]

its harder than the keycaps?

[buoyant solstice]

Much.

[analog vector]

ah ok

[buoyant solstice]

Sure.

GT80
Bone80

[wintry ocean]

Of course we don’t forget about custom cases

[narrow axle]

I just finished my 80he today

[wintry ocean]

Carbon plate?

[narrow axle]

Yes

Silver carbon fiber

[wintry ocean]

Looks great, can u send short click sound after finishing?)

[coarse crest]

Silver CF plate looks hawt

Holy

[lime falcon]

I like that ball grab design

[wintry ocean]

I want to try the brass plate

But only after POMs👀

[bleak root]

can anyone recommend any black/neutral color backlit keycap sets?

[red heart]

Are you getting a custom design made?

[wintry ocean]

No, just the standard case design available on GitHub—I just wanted a non-standard color. But right now, that feels too irrational and expensive for me. I’d rather buy the Wlmouse Beast X Max since my Razer Viper V3 broke, and I’m using an ancient G102😭

[red heart]

What broke about your mouse

[wintry ocean]

Everything literally died on it, starting from the scroll wheel to the fact that lil bro dropped something heavy on it.

[red heart]

Scroll wheel sounds like it‘s a thing that can be fixed depending on the issue

As for your brother dropping something on it that may be more of an issue

I "fixed" the scroll wheel on my viper by opening it up and cleaning out all the stuff that had accumulated over the years

[wintry ocean]

I tried to revive it, but the case was badly damaged, and it looks like the sensor chip got detached.

[red heart]

Yeah

That‘s not good

[wintry ocean]

But now i use only keeb while playing

[exotic cove]

Like the silver CF

[winter laurel]

lamzu maya x is like about 100$

[wintry ocean]

Nah i prefer wl

[coarse crest]

Does the silver CF plate also block RGB like its normal black plate counterpart?

[hybrid birch]

Hello, for a 80he, do I need a 70 switch pack or 90?

[winter nebula]

90

[hybrid birch]

ok thanks

[cunning pewter]

how and how often do you guys clean your keyboards?

[lapis galleon]

every 2 or so months

[buoyant solstice]

Usually once a month I pop off the keycaps and clean the gutters with some qtips.

But to be fair I use my keyboard for work and play. That's a lot of hours a day.

[honest rock]

Hello everyone 👋
I'm considering to buy the wooting keyboard. But before I do, does someone have some helpful tips before buying?

Do any of you hold grudges on some minor inconveniences whilst using the keyboard?

[coarse crest]

I did for my Rog Azoth moonlight (updating via armoury crate bricked RGB and their switches double actuated), but my Wooting 80HE has been the best keyboard I’ve used to date.

[honest rock]

Honestly, I regret buying ROG products because of armoury crate. So I definitely relate to that
How long have you since bought it? And what about its condition? Is it scratched or no damage at all?

[coarse crest]

I feel that, I agree with that sentiment. Upon arrival everything has been great (I did knock my mic over on my white zinc and chipped the paint a little bit - user error), but other than that I’ve had very little complaints if any with my unit

If you go module, I recommend picking up the new Wooting TTC POM switches (using OGs rn) and you can get some nice discounts 👀

[atomic brook]

smooth upsell

[honest rock]

Sadly the UPS delivery fee has been a deal breaker for me, and I'm trying to search for any reason to buy this keyboard. 59 euros for delivery alone... So trying to fit another thing to buy sounds like a hard pill to swallow. And this is my first time ever buying a quality keyboard, so I'm not very familiar with keyboard terminology. What do these switches have to offer?

My current musty keyboard is not fit for rhythm games 😅 And I had many blames to put on it for input lag.

[atomic brook]

i would say that this is a luxury product people buy for their hobbies, i wouldnt recommend buying ttc poms if u are not that into in he keyboards

as it is just less wobble in switches which is a lot of money for a quality of life thing

||i would get raws tho lmao||

^ this is like 15 bucks more that lekkers

i would say its probably better if ur buying switches, but even then lekkers are fine

duhuks are also cheaper than lekkers on aliexpress but i have not tried it myself

u could ask in https://discordapp.com/channels/167181566978555904/984799440072220692 abt them

[honest rock]

Ah, I see. This is DEFINITELY not a hobby for me. I enjoy using a quality keyboard, but dropping $250+ on it hurts to even say. One more thing, I would also like to customize it. I will probably wait a little before actually purchasing it just incase if this is impulsive, but the keycaps look stellar 🤩

My whole life I've been using a plain black keycap with printed letters, and since I'm spending so much on delivery, I'm looking at the "Wooting 5 Dye-sub PBT Magnetic wave keycaps". Would you recommend me buying it?

[wintry ocean]

I’ll admit, I didn’t buy my Wooting for gaming—I got it just to take it apart like Lego. Since I move around a lot with my keyboard, it gets pretty dusty from different environments, and sometimes dirt builds up inside. So I end up cleaning it once a week, even though I wouldn’t really call myself a neat freak.😪

[atomic brook]

its not for the 80he sadly

also this will be an impulse purchase no matter what lmao

do it as a treat for urself by saving up

[wintry ocean]

Tbh you should to buy a module version, because u can swap lekker switches to POMs

[wintry ocean]

Check out the made68 ultra or if u want bigger layout made84 pro

[wintry ocean]

They’re both great right out of the box.

[spring oar]

Dew it. 80he is goated for rhythm game. Straight out upgrade from mech for me due to customizable actuation point.

[wintry ocean]

If you’re looking at the stats, the Ultra will have better numbers than the Wooting.

[honest rock]

That's unfortunate. Then I'm looking at the 60HE+ right? No matter, I don't use most of the keyboard except for the numpad, but even then, I heard you can use some kind of shortcut to make the top row of number keys to be like keypad number keys. I also use vim (which is a text-editor), and it doesn't require most of the extra keys. I wonder how the F1-F12 keys are going to work though.

Is it too late to buy it though? I think it's pretty old now, and wooting is releasing a new keyboard later this year right? So any suggestions on that?

[atomic brook]

over the 80he?

no way lemme check

[atomic brook]

idt wooting is releasing a new keyboard

u should buy the layout you want

the 60he+ would a be a fine purchase still

[spring oar]

80he is faster in eyejoker by about 0.07ms. If i'm reading the stat right

[honest rock]

I'm definitely messing something up in the modding process lol
Probably not that into keyboards that much to do all of that fancy shmancy stuff

[atomic brook]

oh ya i forgot its still on the old test

[honest rock]

The only reason why I'm not buying a 50$ keyboard

[spring oar]

$50 can still be good for rhythm game, the question is which. You dont' necessarily need the fastest, just the most consistent.

Wooting is very consistent

[wintry ocean]

On Wooting’s channel, there’s a simple and short tutorial on how to assemble the modular version. If you get the plastic case, the modular version will also give you one extra color option. Also, if you already have your own keycaps or plan to buy them elsewhere, you can order a set without keycaps.

[wintry ocean]

Modular Wooting isn’t a full custom build. You just get the case separately from the plate and PCB, along with the switches.

[wintry ocean]

But of course, if you’re as crazy as I am, you can swap the stabilizers, mix different types of switches, get a different plate, and add extra insulation layers from third-party sites.

Wooting’s channel has plenty of clear tutorials on how to do everything properly without breaking anything.

[honest rock]

I appreciate everyone's support 👍 Thank you all for the help
I'll look into wooting's channel later. Maybe in a future keyboard build.

Looking through wooting's modding options, the aluminum case + module alone cost more than the full build. And besides, I'm just your average joe. I'd like everything to be first party just for a guranteed smooth experience. So is it wise to just get the full build then replace the keycaps? Or do you think that even their peripherals they sell on the website is overpriced?

[wintry ocean]

Only my opinion
Get the modular version with POM switches and no keycaps. You can find good and affordable options on AliExpress. In my opinion, if there’s one place to save money, it’s definitely on keycaps.

[wintry ocean]

What’s the point of $200 GMK keycaps if you’re using Lekker switches or, god forbid, Outemu Pink?🙏😬

[atomic brook]

lmao not tryna start another switch war

but not getting poms is also a good way to save

[honest rock]

just finished calculating money

1. i'm definitely way over budget 😭
2. module + poms are still too expensive for me, but your suggestion made the overall total cheaper

i think i got what i needed, now i need to find the courage to press the checkout button

thanks everyone ❤️

[wintry ocean]

Raw switches

Lekker’s also will be good decision tbh

But not best

[ornate pike]

imo anything other than lekker v2s are just minmaxing the sound preference

they all sound clacky, and if u do a sound test for a non kb enthusiast they prob wont be able to tell the diff

[wintry ocean]

I use l45. They sounds great

[cunning pewter]

I do usually for 10-12 hours/day
after a month there was a lot of hair, maybe im going bald

keycaps hold on pretty well right now, wont taking them off every month/2 loosen them up?

[ornate pike]

From my experience no, unless u bend them sideways

using a keycap puller straight up is the way

[pure willow]

🙏 if i didn’t want iso layout maybe i was going for other options like venom since it’s 100euros cheaper and faster. Although wooting for me is prettier and the software is a little more user friendly then venom and ofc got the rgb kkk

[honest mist]

Love it

[barren shell]

🔥🔥🔥🔥

[exotic cove]

What about stability on ttc kom?

[azure basin]

Just came in today!

[austere finch]

I think my wooting just died

It keeps disconnecting and now it won’t reconnect

[winter nebula]

Your JST cable is probably loose

[austere finch]

What cable?

[winter nebula]

The one that connects the daugherboard (with the USB port) to the mainboard.

[atomic brook]

do u care about ur profiles?

[austere finch]

Yes

[austere finch]

So the one you plug into the keyboard?

[atomic brook]

^ try this first then

[winter nebula]

No, the JST cable connecting the daugherboard to the mainboard.

You will need to open up the keyboard case to access it.

[austere finch]

It’s good now but my profiles keep getting reset

And it just disconnected

[winter nebula]

Godspeed

[austere finch]

What

Is it dead?

[atomic brook]

no

[winter nebula]

Your JST cable is probably loose.

[atomic brook]

You have a ph1 screwdriver?

[austere finch]

Idk

I have a screwdriver

I’m not sure what kind

[winter nebula]

A small-ish philips head

[atomic brook]

its a +

[austere finch]

What do I do once I open it to o

[atomic brook]

check if its loose

[austere finch]

And how do I check that

[atomic brook]

if so just plug it in tight

[winter nebula]

This cable

[atomic brook]

if its not all the way in

[austere finch]

Can I get an example for the screwdriver

[atomic brook]

a +

[granite gulch]

how delicate is the keybaord? i slammed my hand on it while raging and im scared of problems

[winter nebula]

Don't do that.

[lime falcon]

Its ok, dont do it again

[winter nebula]

As mad as you may be, think of how much more mad you'll be if you break your expensive keyboard as well.

[austere finch]

It looks like this

[winter nebula]

Make sure it's plugged in fully like in my picture. Can't tell from this angle.

If it is, it's possible it's the cable/connection to your PC.

[lime falcon]

push both ends of the cable in the connectors

both pcb and daughterboard connectors

[austere finch]

Looks fine to me

[winter nebula]

Yep, looks good.

[austere finch]

Then what’s wrong with my keyboard

[winter nebula]

Yeah like shafie said, check the other side while you're at it.

[austere finch]

So now it won’t clip on

[nova sinew]

anyone else waiting for white zinc alloy case v2?

[granite gulch]

thanks

[austere finch]

ok i think i fixed it

no issues so far

Will my warranty still work even if I opened it up?

[lime falcon]

yes

[austere finch]

So if this happens again I just use my warranty?

Because I am never opening up a pc case again

I mean keyboard case

[lime falcon]

shouldnt happen, probably jst cable was slightly loose

[austere finch]

Alright

[lime falcon]

are you using stock cable

[austere finch]

Yup

Thank you all

This gave me a lot of anxiety while doing it

[winter nebula]

You did great 👍

[merry palm]

For the wooting 80 do I get alloy or ghost? I can afford both I'm just indecisive lmao

[austere finch]

Either one is good

I would do ennie Minnie miney moe to decide

[merry palm]

👍

What did you pull trigger on?

[austere finch]

Plastic

[vapid wigeon]

[granite gulch]

is there a way to check if something is damaged and slower from being hit or any other problems?

[lime falcon]

You would notice if something was wrong with the keyboard

Dont worry about it

[glass wing]

Hi, I'm a Japanese who can't speak English, so I'm sorry if the translation is hard to understand.
I'm not sure if this is the right place to ask, but I ordered an 80he, so I'm looking for a lightweight silent switch that can be used with the 80he.
I've already ordered a MATHEW silent switch, but are there any other switches that would be good?
There's one more thing I'm interested in, and it seems to be compatible with RAESHA V1, but can I use it with the 80he?
Thank you in advance.

[midnight iron]

The mathew are one of the best options right now for silent, so you picked a good choice already

The raesha are not compatible with 80he

[glass wing]

I see, I understand.
So RAESHA can't be used after all. Thank you for letting me know.

[acoustic jasper]

Raed HE and silent pheonix HE

[glass wing]

Have you tried those two and MATHEW? If so, can you tell me what you think?
The Gamakey Phoenix is ​​40-60gf, so it seems heavy.

[acoustic jasper]

Ive tried both, phoenix is a bit too heavy for me personally. Raeds are 45gf peak force at the tactility point

[woven basin]

bro my cat chewed my wooting cable

can i use my razer v3 pro cable for my wooting 😿

[shrewd cargo]

try it, see if it starts ghost typing

[lime falcon]

Probably yeah, v3 pro cable is very good

[glass wing]

I see, I'll put Raeds HE into consideration
Thanks for the info

[acoustic jasper]

no problem, i posted a video above showing a typing test of them on a tiger lite HE if you want to hear it

[glass wing]

The silence is perfect. It would be ideal if there was a switch around 35gf, but unfortunately there are only a few silent switches.

[humble aspen]

Gv

[mortal mantle]

I just assembled the wooting 80he, switches and everything, i watched the assembly video and made sure to get that jst cable plugged in but when i plug it in my pc its not turning on...

Am i gonna have to disassemble the whole thing to check the jst connector?

[lime falcon]

Yeah, its probably not fully in

[mortal mantle]

Ah fml

I legit couldn't sleep all night the delivery came at 7:20 am i got it at 8am, now its 10am and i have to do the whole process again

Hahahahaha

[lime falcon]

Its pretty easy, just remove top case and push JST cable in the connector with your nail

Push that cable in both connectors (PCB and Daughterboard)

Unlikely that its not properly connected in daugtherboard, but you never know

[mortal mantle]

I DID IT

i thoought id have to pull out every single key cap and switch but it was actuaklly just 7 keycaps lol

the jst was completely disconnected somehow

[lime falcon]

Nice

Yeah it can easilly disconnect, you need to carefully place module after plugging in the cable

[mortal mantle]

yea its good now tho thanks for ur help ^^

the rgb quality is wayy better than i expected btw

[lime falcon]

Wooting has some fancy rgb

[mortal mantle]

their keycaps are very simple and nice too

damn tthis thing is so nice im so hyped hahaha

[delicate dagger]

This probably has been asked but… Wooting TTC KOM POM vs. Lekker v2, in terms of sound? Which one would be quieter/deeper pitch?

[nova nexus]

Lekkers

[delicate dagger]

Alright, will just keep those then, thank you
