[nova nexus]

Wiz4rd is correct, the only functional differences are the FR4 plate and the lighter switches. Those don't impact performance. The rest of the changes are cosmetic only

[red heart]

well its a bit more than that but the pcb is the same

[humble cargo]

any particular reason for going with an fr4 plate in it?

[finite lantern]

Completely personal imho, the price difference is negligible when you mod it yourself because you need to procure the FR4 plate and modify the lekker tikken switches. For me personally its worth it because it’s a very good out of the box experience

[red heart]

stiffer for more stability, sound

[nova nexus]

TenZ preferred the stiffer plate specifically

[red heart]

i like my fr4 plate cause of the feel and it doesnt sound as dead as the pc plate

tho i might swap to alu later

[untold island]

what does a fr4plate mean and what can i notice for a difference as someone who has no experience or knowledge about it?

[finite lantern]

The rgb shine through is also nice because the kana is translucent, have you tried different colours and brightness?

[nova nexus]

I'm pretty sure the TenZ keycaps are not shinethrough, as they are 5-sided dye submimated

[finite lantern]

Oh maybe wrong term lmao

[red heart]

fr4 and pc are different materials that are used for the plate that the switches are clicked into. a softer plate might make it possible to move the switches side to side slightly while a stiffer plate does not. It also affects the sound.

the plate holds all the switches in the keyboard basically so the material changes how the switches move around/sound

[buoyant solstice]

Correct. They will allow some light through, but it will be more like putting a piece of paper in front of a lamp. A glow.

No actual letters. Not like doubleshot shinethrough keycaps.

[ruby mantle]

does anybody got signed keyboard

[finite lantern]

It is pretty noticeable, the default rgb setting looks good

[turbid crater]

are there any official updates on the knob? i noticed the english page is removed and google seo redirects to the chinese one: https://wooting.io/zh-CN/knobs

[untold island]

also, doesnt the regular 80HE come with lekker tikkens already?

[red heart]

no

[pseudo junco]

what is the fr4 plate?

[bold shale]

I still haven’t received a shipping update for my TenZ ordered before lunch on Friday (CET). Should I be worried?

[cerulean orbit]

They have high order volumes at the moment, mine just updated to say it's ready to pack

[bold shale]

From what I understand it’s fiberglass reinforced laminate material. Often with copper running through it.

[pseudo junco]

Oh ok thank you

[bold shale]

Yeah so does mine, but only if I check Wooting’s internal tracking and not Shopify.

[untold island]

yeah, i have. brightness is at 100% but i dont personally look at the sides of my keyboard ever so also the translucent sides arent that important to me even though it is nice, just not noticeable for me (also have a wristpad which covers one side already). i used pudding keycaps on it and then i like the keyboard a lot but at that point i could probably better get the 80HE and save money since then the whole Tenz part is defeated i guess

[red heart]

fr4 is what circuit boards are made out of

[bold shale]

Indeed. IIRC it stands for flame retardant 4.

[graceful rampart]

Yikes it’ll be along time before mine is shipped then

[untold island]

thanks to the ones who have been helpful

[finite lantern]

Not completely defeated because of the fr4 plate and very different switches the normal 80he has

[dense depot]

just installed the 80he

good feeling but not that great idk why, it lacks some clicky noise like the blackwidow from razer

[red heart]

if you want a louder switch, get the owlabs ti he

[lilac ibex]

I have the Tikken switches in my 80HE and I ended up putting non-shinethrough keycaps on it as well. I still ordered the TenZ because of the looks. I have a feeling I'll like the sound of my Zinc 80HE over the TenZ too. I'll find out today.

[red heart]

you might like swapping the modules around cause the tenz edition has an fr4 plate instead of the stock pc plate

[lilac ibex]

That was the one thing that kind of was the deciding factor for me. I wanted the FR4 plate. I know I can buy an FR4 plate from Torontoman, but it's not currently in stock.

Or at least it wasn't last time I looked.

[lilac ibex]

Do you like the Owlab Ti? I actually ordered some and they arrived last week. They're sitting in a bag on my shelf. I really like the Tikkens. I got the Geon RAW too and had put those in prior to the Tikken, wasn't really a fan of those.

[red heart]

I do not have the owlabs myself but i know they are louder than most others

[lilac ibex]

Ah. Figured I'd try them in something eventually. I'm kind of excited for the TenZ, I'm really excited for the 60 v2. But mine won't arrive until March.

[arctic lantern]

I'd love to hear your thoughts.
What do you think is the best case for the Wooting 80he?
Black? Gray? Frosted?
I'm leaning towards black for now, but I'm wondering how the other options look too.

[weary leaf]

2040 Q6

[pseudo junco]

how will these knobs work?

[weary leaf]

The big one inserts into 4 switch slots and the small one into a single one. You can rotate it and push it.

[lilac ibex]

I think best is subjective. Do you care about weight? Do you care more about the potential to scratch paint on metal or crack plastic if you plan on taking it apart it a bunch if you plan on modding it?

[buoyant solstice]

Into four specific ones*

[pseudo junco]

which ones?

[buoyant solstice]

Cause they have to line up, making only the home cluster or numpad possible.

[weary leaf]

Right, yes

yeah theres one spot for that

[pseudo junco]

which keyboard do you need to use these?

[buoyant solstice]

80HE or 2HE (ARM)

60HE models can only fit the small one.

[nova nexus]

And the UwU

[buoyant solstice]

No silly. You can't fit the large knob on the UwU, Mark.

[pseudo junco]

Oh thanbks what is the difference between the small and big one? More function on the big one?

[nova nexus]

Size

[pseudo junco]

just the size?

[nova nexus]

Same functionality

[pseudo junco]

oh ok

[weary leaf]

But you CAN fit a small knob in each switch slot though

[nova nexus]

The small one also has discrete ticks to rotate around while the big knob is smooth

There's knob terminology for that, but I don't remember which is which

[lilac ibex]

Tactile feedback would turn into a fidget toy for me.

[weary leaf]

Stress releif knob hehh

[turbid crater]

the big one seems really cool but i need my home cluster

[night turret]

Ribbed for our pleasure

[bold shale]

Eyyyy my tracking just popped; estimated delivery on Wednesday. Hype 🙂

[turbid crater]

also does tenz keyboard contain home+end replacement keycaps? PgUp and PgDown can be sacrified

[nova nexus]

I believe so

Webpage should show what's in the box

[night turret]

I want a small knob to replace the top left on my 60/80

[nova nexus]

I want a full knob keyboard

[weary leaf]

I'm doing ESC with it myself

[bold shale]

There is a joke here about putting knobs in holes but I won’t go there 😅

[night turret]

Dj Markymark in the house

[weary leaf]

Ohh it's way beyond jokes, you late :D

[nova nexus]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a0nwHsxOw2w

[turbid crater]

it just says "additional keycaps"

[nova nexus]

Then yea you get the extra nav cluster ones

[arctic lantern]

That's true.
I'll try buying the black plastic one first, and if I don't like it, I'll switch to the zinc alloy case.
Thanks.

[lilac ibex]

Mine just arrived. It comes with a Home, End, Scroll lock, a "custom design" logo key.

[lilac ibex]

I really like how it feels to type on.

[turbid crater]

tysm

[karmic cape]

It takes so long for my 80he to deliver

[lilac ibex]

The keycap design was weird, all of the US lettering shines through.

[lusty owl]

Is it possible to make the 0.1 rapid trigger more sensitive?

[lime falcon]

no

[jade widget]

Why and how much more sensitive you want it to be 👀
Even keyboards that go "lower" don't recommend doing so

[nova nexus]

0.1mm is the thickness of a piece of paper.

[lusty owl]

Like to where if u slightly tap the key sometimes it will accidentally spam the letter like eee fff

[jade widget]

Yeah those are misinputs and Wooting specifically tuned the keyboard to not have them

[boreal socket]

but... why would you want accidental presses

[lime falcon]

fortinite pickup macros

[fervent roost]

please make it 0.0001 (please no)

[lusty owl]

But for some games that’s lowkey good though

[lime falcon]

I don't think misinputs are good in any game

if 0.1mm isn't enough then there's another issue

[upbeat berry]

cough skillissue

[jade widget]

Sounds like skirting around game rules to me

[upper garden]

you can achieve 0.0 actuation point

you do this by unplugging the usb c cable from the wooting keyboard and imagine the gameplay from your head

[lime falcon]

0.10mm is so slow, 0.1 when

[spring oar]

At this point, learn how to press a single key 3x faster by alternating 3 finger rather than using macro/bugs.

[upper garden]

just lag switch the lobby so everyone is frozen but you can still move

Gears of war 2 online was rough back in the day

[turbid crater]

are the tenz 80HE keycaps shine through like the normal 80HE?

[proud kraken]

nah what games are u playing that you need to go faster 😳

[last solar]

do you prefer the TenZ version or the version you already have and modded?

[buoyant solstice]

They are not.

[lilac ibex]

I haven't used the TenZ enough to make a decision yet. I just got it this morning and had to leave for work 30 minutes after I set it up. I really like the feel of the lighter Tikken switches though and the rigidity of the FR4 plate is noticable. I prefer the heft of the Zinc Alloy case, though like I said I haven't used the TenZ enough to know if it will shift while I'm gaming.

[lilac ibex]

They shine through to an extent. Not exactly like the normal PBT keys, but the US lettering legends and some (but not all) of the Kanji legends shine through.

[wet oyster]

My Tenz hasn’t been shipped yet and some folks already have theirs

[finite lantern]

i paid the Rothschilds to delay your shipping

[long musk]

Just bought it what we thinking? @lilac ibex

[swift acorn]

package just came in

[gaunt bane]

Yay!!!!!

I hope you like it!!!!

[gaunt bane]

Where to heck do you get these keycaps????

[lilac ibex]

I haven't used the TenZ enough to say whether I like it more, less or the same as my original 80HE. But I really like the board regardless. Don't think you went wrong.

[gaunt bane]

I also want one with the wooting logo is the problem. (Windows key)

[long musk]

Ive never had a proper gaming keyboard before this is my first time buying a wooting

a bit expensive for a keyboard tho i've heard its worth it

[gaunt bane]

Mine was 415 aud :CRY:

[long musk]

mine was 220gbp

= 432 AUD

[gaunt bane]

Wow...

I orderd from it in a store from perth

so no delivery fee :D

[lilac ibex]

Initial investment is higher than some, but no one else has a 4 year warranty. The potential to spend the same or more on multiple keyboards in 4 years isn't unheard of.

[long musk]

I dont think you can get a wooting from stores

I tried looking but could only find it on wooting and random esports websites

[gaunt bane]

Delivered

[long musk]

in uk

So i bought from wooting bcuz i wanted the tenz one

[gaunt bane]

Did you get the tenz?

[long musk]

i think ive had a new keyboard every year for the past 5 years

[long musk]

yes i got the tenz one

[gaunt bane]

I got normal, wooting was charging like 250 aud shipping so I decided to get the normal from an esports shop.

I got a squeaky A key however

[long musk]

For me shipping was 10 GBP = 20 AUD 2-14 business days

[gaunt bane]

That's pretty good for the tenz one!

[gaunt bane]

This squeaky A key is bugging the heck out of me

[long musk]

Yeah after buying a 75% keyboard i can never go back to a 60%

[gaunt bane]

I had an 100% before

[long musk]

ive always had 60% until last year

i currently have a womier sk75

[gaunt bane]

Guys does anyone know why my A key is squeaky? I've had this keyboard for 8 days

[hardy hollow]

Take it out and replace it with one of the spare keys

[lilac ibex]

Switch may not have been lubed well. It comes with extra switches if you don't have lube to re-lube it yourself.

[gaunt bane]

Oh, so it just needs lube? I have yoyo lube, would that work?

Yes I'm a yoyoer before you ask.

[lilac ibex]

I've never tried using anything other than lube meant for switches. You can get Krytox 205g0 for pretty cheap online.

[gaunt bane]

I might just replace the switch, is it easy?

[hardy hollow]

Yes

Very easy

[lilac ibex]

Yeah, unplug the keyboard, pull the cap and then the switch using the tool that came with the keyboard.

And then just pop them back in. Just pull and push vertically.

[gaunt bane]

What's the chance I break it?

[long musk]

did bro really say this

[gaunt bane]

The switch

[long musk]

1% literally

[lilac ibex]

Very low

[gaunt bane]

Uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1297394071844814991/1298487763380863026/Schermafbeelding_2023-10-01_162332.gif

[long musk]

its basically the same process as taking the keycap off but with a switch instead

[lilac ibex]

There's a hook point on the top and bottom of the switch. Just click the switch puller onto the switch, squeeze lightly and pull straight up.

[gaunt bane]

I'll do it tonight, thinking of getting jade pros for this thing soon!

Maybe some geon raws

[lilac ibex]

I got the Geon RAW and the Lekker Tikkens separately from the Lekker V2 60s. I personally like the Lekker Tikkens the most of the 3. I also bought Owlab Ti HE, but haven't tried them yet.

But everyone has their own preferences.

[long musk]

how are the switches on the tenz keyboard is there anywhere i can view sound test?

[lilac ibex]

Wooting has sound samples on their YouTube page.

Of pretty much every popular HE switch.

[long musk]

you mind telling me the switch in the tenz keyboard im not sure

[lilac ibex]

It's a Tikken switch, but lighter than the traditional ones. The ones you can buy from the website are 60gf, the ones that come with the TenZ are lighter at 45gf.

Sorry, that was redundant. I'm talking while typing.

[long musk]

Thanks

Would you say It will be really noticeable going from Womier SK75 to a wooting

[lilac ibex]

I will say of the little amount I've used of the TenZ, I like the lighter feel of the TenZ Tikkens. I get a little fatigue with the traditional Tikkens.

[long musk]

Are you a valorant/cs player due to you buying the tenz wooting?

[lilac ibex]

The Womier SK75 is one I dont have. You'll probably notice the difference in latency though.

[long musk]

I got it for its sound

Wasnt up to date with the rapid trigger keyboards

[lilac ibex]

I play CS2, never played Valorant.

[long musk]

I play valorant but Ive played cs2 just dont see how its enjoyable

Thats just me tho

[lilac ibex]

I play BF6 and BO6 the most. The only thing I use in any of them is rapid trigger.

I've thought about playing Valorant just to try the other features of the keyboard in a competitive setting. I use them in single player games I play.

[lilac ibex]

Also I read there isn't an obscene amount of cheaters in it.

[upbeat berry]

i play a lot of [insert singleplayer game here] since theres no cheaters in it

[gaunt bane]

Tikkens vs Jade pros, give me MORE reasons why I should buy jade pros (I'm buying them anyway hehe)

[crimson kraken]

Who up lubing they switches

[sturdy monolith]

Anyone here got a pic of a white zinc with dark keycaps? wanna see how it looks cos im struggling to decide if i wanna keep the base keycaps i got with the wooting or buy some custom ones 😭

[modest plover]

mods

<@&1098943457654997093>

[long musk]

you rarely find a cheater

[stiff finch]

i'll get my tenz wooting tmrw 🙂

[long musk]

Pray for a signature

[swift acorn]

❤️ it really does sound 10x better in person

such a satisfying experience

hope my professor gives me a big ol essay to write man i want to use this thing more

[hardy wren]

Just got my 80he on Friday. Spent the last couple days poking around. It feels great. I was really impressed when I opened the case. Very expensive but the overall quality was immediately apparent. The alloy case is damn heavy and feels so beefy. The switches feel great, now I understand why people like these keyboards for the sound (first HE). The only thing that I don’t like is the space bar feels a bit dead and dull in comparison to the other keys, and I really hate that the removable feet to increase the angle don’t actually match the case in their contouring at all. They definitely look like an afterthought but they do their job well enough. The software is very nice but I definitely needed to watch the wooting videos on how to make things work well.

Overall 9/10 but I think the price IS too high in general.

[lilac ibex]

I have to re-write our employee handbook tomorrow and Wednesday. I'm kind of curious myself if I end up liking the TenZ more than the regular 80HE after typing 40-50 pages of information.

[swift acorn]

oh does the tenz one have a diff switch?

[modest plover]

Same switch but lighter spring

[full maple]

Pretty sure if u change the stabilisers for the space bar it will fix it ten fold

[fervent roost]

the tenz one comes with modded tikkens

[full maple]

^

[lilac ibex]

It has a lighter Tikken

[full maple]

Is it lighter? I thought he said it takes a bit more force for the initial press

Which I would love because i fat finger keys often

[swift acorn]

wtf

normal one is already so light lol

[full maple]

Well i wouldn’t know :v i went from steelseries to 80he lol

But i did notice my ring and pinky fingers resting on the keys which activated them so i had to mess about with the actuation points

[swift acorn]

i was initially looking at the steelseries apex pro with socd, rapid trigger, custom actuation point

cheaper for full white + wrist rest

but apparently steelseries has a god awful software

[full maple]

I mean its good, but ive always wanted a 80he

It wasn’t available in Australia till after I brought the steelseries lmao

[lilac ibex]

The standard prebuilt 80HE comes with Lekker V2 60s.

If you want to get the Tikken in an 80HE, you either have to buy them separately, or buy the parts and build it. But the only ones available for purchase are the 60gf ones.

[jade widget]

Or get the TenZ model

[lilac ibex]

I was saying that as opposed to the TenZ.

[jade widget]

O

[hardy wren]

What stabilizers would you recommend if I were to change them?

[proven hearth]

SW Knight v4

[steady canyon]

anybody know of anyone getting the signed one yet?

[static bay]

what's a good wristrest for 80he, i use gt80 case and i think my wrist being so low is causing problems cuz when i prop it up with my phone it feels a lot more comfy

[drifting sleet]

Can I use my own switches with the 80HE module or do I have to use wooting brand switches?

[covert meteor]

Has anyone gotten the Signed one?

[lilac ibex]

You can use almost any HE switch with it.

[lilac ibex]

There's an official 80HE wrist rest. Don't know if it will match the front height of the GT-80 though.

[static bay]

it prob wont but i dont mind that, is there anything else that could be better that is same size or is that about as good as im gonna get

[solemn grotto]

Hiya, just wondering if anyone knows is it possible to have my 80HE monitor my mouse battery and display it on the light indicator?

Been playing with the background service and got curious how much we can play aaround with it

[lilac ibex]

You might find something online for cheap. I mean I doubt a generic 75% wrist rest would be significantly different in width.

[static bay]

thats good point i could just look for wrist rests in general and compare the width

[simple bear]

my rgb not working on my tenz kb 🙁

[lilac ibex]

It's dimmed down in the default TenZ profile. Is it just dim, or like not working at all?

Probably want to reach out to support if it's straight up not working at all.

[simple bear]

not working at all

no matter which profile im on, it was working earlier today which is the thing.

[lilac ibex]

I ran into an issue with the RGB linking button doing weird stuff on the TenZ profile. Had to toggle it even though it said it was off, it was on.

[simple bear]

whats that button

[lilac ibex]

Looks like a little chain link next to the slider.

[simple bear]

oh yea, mine is already on

Man this is so frustrating, idk why it just suddenly stopped working.

[unreal quarry]

this is gonna sound stupid, but the tenz keyboard backlights aren't fixed to only red correct?

[modest plover]

no

[steady canyon]

u can change it

[lofty pine]

What’s the best kind of switch puller to use with the 80HE? Claw-type pullers keep breaking my switches.

[meager tulip]

ordered my tenz keeb should be here in 2 days anything i should look out for and or do when i first get it?

[fervent roost]

Try to not throw it at your monitor, and get wootility

[steady canyon]

is there anything i need to do besides what the website says

[drifting sleet]

Does anyone know some switches that sound like milky yellows but that work for HE modules?

[fervent roost]

i have nothing in mind right now besides give it all your love and care

[lilac ibex]

Good luck finding true thocky HE switches. I've heard GravaStar UFO are close-ish, but they're pretty pricey.

[chilly bane]

why does my keyboard randomly stop working and only works if i restart my pc

[worn nova]

Finally got my tracking number for the TenZ

[long musk]

You need aura for it to work

[mortal fog]

Is there a sound test for the tenz?

[lilac ibex]

Yes, on Wooting's YouTube page.

Well I think that's where I saw it.

[mortal fog]

I can’t see one

[long musk]

try different usb port or wire

[chilly bane]

wdym different wire

i don't think i have any others

[lilac ibex]

I guess I made myself a liar. I know I heard a sound test of it on YouTube. I just can't find it in my history.

Oh, its on Wooting's website. https://wooting.io/wooting-80he-tenz towards the bottom of the page.

[coarse stream]

On their website

[torn wing]

My tenz finally has a label 😳

[delicate tartan]

i wanna change the stabilizers, couldnt find anywhere the sw knight v4's, hows the durock v3 compared to it

[atomic brook]

stabs dont differ in quality

but with better made stabs, likw knights, the lubing process is much easier and you dont need a thicker lube on top of using a thinner lube

durocks and wooting's stabs need 2 types of lubes in comparision

[delicate tartan]

thank you a lot

[lilac ibex]

Try searching for “Swagkeys Knight V4”

[lunar nymph]

My tenz 80he was supposed to arrive at the latest 2 hours ago, but seems to be stuck most likely at customs 😭

[robust cloak]

why does the tenz 80he sound worse than the normal 80he sound test on the website?

[midnight iron]

likely different recording setups because i wasn't around to record the 80he back then

the original 80he sound test likely has more proximity effect helping boost the low bass sounds and hide chatter a bit more

[robust cloak]

i recently ordered the tenz 80he a couple days ago and i really hope it sounds way better irl than the yt video

[midnight iron]

also make sure your video is playing in full res, some people accidentally play their videos in lower res which downgrades sound

i think it sounds fairly close to the youtube video, but less loud of course since the volume is boosted a tad for the recording to be heard more easily

[white jacinth]

I used the keycaps of a red dragon custom keyboard the name of the keycaps are hyper X pudding keycaps

[modest plover]

Are the tenz keycaps cherry profile or oem profile?

[midnight iron]

cherry

[modest plover]

nice

[robust cloak]

does the keyboard have the same modding potential as the normal 80he and possibly the 60he v2?

[midnight iron]

yeah, you can change the parts just like the regular 80he if you wish

although we upgraded the plate and switches from stock 80he already

[robust cloak]

if i do decide to mod the keyboard in the future, what are your recommendations to make it sound more "thocky?"

[rigid siren]

I just got my Wooting 80HE Tenz takeover today and i made a sound test vid yall can go check it out! https://www.youtube.com/shorts/Jco43kHsh4I

[midnight iron]

honestly it starts with switches normally. HE has limits to how thocky you can make things

the thockiest HE keyboard is still less thonky than a $50 'thocky' mx keyboard because of switch sound differences

at some point people just accept that the types of keyboards sound different

in case of tenz keyboard he picked fr4 plate for fps performance instead of worrying about thocky sound specifically, because he prioritised performance in game over chasing sound profile

[rigid siren]

tbh the wooting 80he doesnt feel that thocky to me. more clacky if anything. also the spacebar is very loud lol

per my video

[midnight iron]

yeah thocky isn't really a thing in any he keyboard. it's just a buzzword tiktok/youtube uses to get clicks, but none of them are all that thocky compared to mx switch keyboards

[robust cloak]

it sounds really good imo, way better than my 60he+

the spacebar is loud tho

[midnight iron]

most people saying thocky don't really even know what it means

[robust cloak]

gotcha gotcha

[midnight iron]

newer keyboards like the tenz do sound 'cleaner' though because the old switches like lekker v1 had a lot more chattery plastic rattle

[rigid siren]

compared to my custom mechanical keyboards the sound is average to me haha

[midnight iron]

tenz has benefit of getting tikkens stock vs. the og 80he prebuilt is on lekker v2 still

[modest plover]

Split spacebar 80HE wen?

[midnight iron]

not soon enough. We've been begging product team for split 80he for ages

[modest plover]

According to the poll on the site, only 20% of 60HeV2 buyers wanted split

[midnight iron]

that's really high for new format

[jade widget]

Think some were confused on the cherry profile since it doesn't mention it on the page and I think the measurements were copy pasted from the 80HE page

[midnight iron]

like traditionally split would be maybe 1-2% probably, so 20% was quite nice to see

[modest plover]

Are there key spacing differences between the 60He and 80He? Read somewhere that the 60He is slightly more crammed up than the 80

Although that might be BS

[midnight iron]

nope same spacing

just one is missing tilde key and f row/arrows

but the spacing of everything else is same

there are some formats that do squeeze the keys a bit more than a full 80he type format, but we don't use them

[proven swan]

um can someone help me putting in the pcb into the case?

Beacuse of the jst cable the pcb gets wobbly and doesn't fit

[bold shale]

I’m very happy we get a full size right shift key on the 80HE.

[thick iron]

Bend very gently the jst cable, it is more easier to put the pcb in case after that, it is the most difficult part of mounting

[simple bear]

If my wooting80he doesn’t turn on rgb on my pc and laptop while having brightness at 100%, is the hardware cooked?

The tenz collab one

[bright jewel]

do you have tackyon mode on? or did change any rgb settings, and did you make sure you saved it on your active profile?

[simple bear]

Tested it with and without tachyon, same result of no lighting. Tried to “paint” and switch around in my rgb settings, no fix from that. I saved like 30 times the past couple of hours trying to troubleshoot this lol. I’ve also tested my 60he cable while also testing different usb port with both cables and it was the same result. I did the troubleshooting and full reset as well. I don’t use any rgb programs.

[simple bear]

I think I’ve tried every single troubleshooting method but let me know if there is anything else I could do.

The RGB was working just fine when I got the keyboard delivered and played on it for a couple hours, came back after I ate and it’s been like this since.

[bright jewel]

can you make a post in #1019755933959733258 and summarize a bit what youve tried etc. and maybe add some pictures or videos :)

[simple bear]

Sorry if I broke any rules, I’ve already posted it in there earlier today.

[bright jewel]

aah no worries! if youve already done that great :)

[simple bear]

Thank you for your help, all is appreciated. Do you by chance know if I ask for a replacement keyboard that I can at least utilize this one till the new one arrives then send it back? I heard for the PCB, they let you switch it first after arriving and then ask to send the defect PCB back.

[buoyant solstice]

Support will be able to answer that question, if you reach out to support on our website.

[simple bear]

Sounds good, thank you!

[pseudo junco]

Hello are there several ISO module by language or are there all the same? When I try to order I just see Wooting 60HE v2 Module ISO Split and not 60HE v2 Module ISO Split French ?

[buoyant solstice]

Just ISO and ISO split

Language is just the keycaps

[pseudo junco]

Oh all ISO are the same?

[buoyant solstice]

That's what I said.

[bright jewel]

its just the silly enter key + the language specific keycaps

nothing special :)

I know the chance of getting a signed one is pretty much 0.5 percent, but still - one can dream.

[fluid berry]

I get mine between tomorrow and the 9th

[bold shale]

Yeah I already got my UPS tracking, and notification 🙂

After all, Sweden is almost a neighbor to the Netherlands. 🇳🇱 Both geographically and linguistically.

[fluid berry]

Ye i still dont have sadly I buyed mine Sunday. But i life in the netherlands 😆

[bold shale]

Verschrikkelijke! 😅 (”förskräckligt” in Swedish)

[fluid berry]

Hope I will get my tracking today aswell

[elfin fossil]

Nice, any of yall received it yet? Mine arrived in my country already think i will receive it in a day or 2

[bright jewel]

i got mine on saturday

[elfin fossil]

😢

[rich scarab]

is it normal that my arrow key starts to sound wobbly or smt after i clicked it very often (i play geometry dash alot)

[buoyant solstice]

Only if you're hitting them so hard, they're taking damage.

[static field]

you mean like full blone smashing the keys or just take the keyboard to your desk and hope it dont break 😂

[rich scarab]

im pressing it lightly, on my old wooting i did press it very hard tho

[fluid berry]

@elfin fossil

[elfin fossil]

Which keyboard?

[fluid berry]

Tenz his keyboard

[bold shale]

Razer Huntsman

[long musk]

oh mine is 05-12 february

[bold shale]

Ok, you know the thing TenZ said in the video about taking his keyboard into bed with him? I may or may not have done something similar myself. I am a huge keyboard/switch enthusiast 😅

[fluid berry]

It just changed tho. It was first from 4 to 9 feb

[turbid crater]

i have the same

[zenith sand]

Yipppee!

Congrats man

Hello guys how are you?

Soon I will have my keyboard :o)

[long musk]

Has anyone received a signed one yet?

[proven hearth]

someone just sent it in general

[buoyant solstice]

That's literally who I replied to, yes 😄

So that makes two people so far on Discord afaik.

[long musk]

give me the signed one

[buoyant solstice]

[long musk]

If I get one you best delete this 😊

@buoyant solstice Question with the tenz keyboard due to it being limited time how does it work with getting a replacement if its damaged/faulty

[last solar]

TenZ also said that the golden signed keyboards are rarer than the silver ones

[long musk]

Theres gold and silver ? 100 between the two colours?

[last solar]

yes

[long musk]

since u said that for example 80 silver 20 gold?

[last solar]

he said that he used the silver pen more

[bright jewel]

I dont think we have an exact number on the colour but yes

[long musk]

yeah that was example

[long musk]

@bright jewel can you answer this?

[last solar]

its probably a little more even i think, maybe like 40/60 ratio but cool nonetheless

[buoyant solstice]

We have spare parts on hand.

[long musk]

Its my first time buying a wooting do you send out parts or replace the keyboard?

[buoyant solstice]

Depends on the issue.

[long musk]

If I had a faulty keyboard personally wouldnt feel confident enough to replace parts in the keyboard myself

[red heart]

Wooting still has spare parts for the wooting one, their first keyboard that hasnt been sold in a long time

You‘ll be fine

[long musk]

No im talking about the tenz one

[red heart]

Ok?

They will have spare parts around and the pcb of tenz 80he is basically the same except it has different preloaded profiles

[long musk]

Oh ok thanks I was just curious seen a few people having issues with their tenz one

[buoyant solstice]

We will of course eventually run out of spare parts. Can't last forever. But the Tenz is an 80HE at its core. If there's a sensor issue, that's easy to fix - We can just ship a new 80HE module down the road. If the case or keycaps get damaged, then it's a bit more tricky as time goes on.

[fallen ore]

Hey i spilled tea on half of my keyboard

what do I do? I unplugged it and turned it the other way

[buoyant solstice]

Screw it apart and get ready to deep clean it. Gonna need some IPA.

[bright jewel]

https://help.wooting.io/article/12-basic-troubleshooting

[proven hearth]

30/70 or 40/60

gold/silver

[fallen ore]

idk what IPA means or PCBA

[lilac ibex]

After using the TenZ for a few hours last night and like the past 5 hours this morning, I'll say for gaming, I really like the lighter switch force on the switches on the TenZ. But for general typing, its too light for my taste and I had to almost max out actuation distance to stop constant accidental keypress entries. I like the feel of the FR4 plate a lot and ended up ordering one for my other 80HE.

[proven hearth]

isopropyl alcohol

[lilac ibex]

IPA is isopropyl alcohol. PCBA is the keyboard's circuitry board.

[fallen ore]

what if I dont have alcohol

[lilac ibex]

Buy some

[buoyant solstice]

[bright jewel]

only I can do that

[open nacelle]

Have you gotten any reports regarding Tenz one loading profiles slowly? I own both 80he and tenz’s one is significantly slower.*

[fallen ore]

what if I just flip it around and let it dry

will that work? im not a good keyboard expert to fully fix and take aparty everything bro

[buoyant solstice]

You're still going to have tea stains in between electronics. You might as well throw out the board at that point, if you're not going to try and clean it out.

Even worse if you put any sugar in it.

[fallen ore]

i put a bit of honey in the tea

wait

I spilled only that many keyboard

on that many

[buoyant solstice]

Doesn't matter. It seeps into the lower layers.

Your keyboard is a sandwich.

[fallen ore]

fk

[bright jewel]

Ive sent you a link with general 'what to do's' if you got liquid on your kb, its up to you to follow it and trying to safe your keyboard

[buoyant solstice]

You need to screw it apart, separating the layers and ensure each layer is clean and dry - Especially the PCB where the components sit.

[fallen ore]

do i have to do it now or

can I do it tomorrow

[bright jewel]

[lilac ibex]

Kind of playing with fire using something with electronics that have moisture in them.

[fallen ore]

https://www.youtube.com/shorts/k8GDQSTRi50

is this good enough

[fallen ore]

lesson learned, i cant be trusted with liquids around my setup. this happened twice now, my last keyboard got also covered in tea

[lilac ibex]

Letting it "dry out for 48 hours" like that video doesn't remove the moisture in the layers between the plate and the PCB. That may work for a cheap keyboard. The Wooting is multiple layers.

[silk grove]

Just taking it apart and cleaning it would be the easiest thing

[silk grove]

and this

[lilac ibex]

Plus, if there was honey in that tea. It won't ever truly dry. There will be sediment until you remove it.

[fallen ore]

if I let it dry till tomorrow and then tomorrow take it apart is that fine

im too sleepy rn

[lilac ibex]

It will probably be fine if its sitting unused. Just don't use it until you thoroughly clean it.

[silk grove]

I would at the very least take it out of the case and put it on a towel or something

[turbid crater]

discord marks u as a "likely spammer"

and hides your messages

[fallen ore]

i know buddy

[turbid crater]

oh, just wanted to give u a heads up

[cursive basin]

planned a whole build around running all white rgb on an 80HE, finally get it put together and my white is... pink. Tried dropping the red levels and it's still bad. Submitted a ticket asking if I got a bad pcb and was told this is normal and will be fixed in a future tba firmware patch 🤷‍♂️ anybody else's this bad??

[proven hearth]

this is quite normal because the pcb doesnt have a white LED

its always a game to balance the colors since one of them might be stronger than the rest

you can turn down the R value by 5 and you can get closer to white

[lucid island]

is the cable gonna be usb c?

[pseudo junco]

Hello guys cannot wait to receive my 60he v2

[cursive basin]

I mean I get that, I know white is just a combination of the rgb but to be this bad??? It’s not even slightly white, it’s pink pink. I had to turn the red down to 205 to even get close to white and even then it is still ever so slightly pink. This is almost making me think there is an issue with my green and blue led’s. It’s sitting right next to a keychron numpad that I also have set to all white and it is outputting it with no calibration

[buoyant solstice]

There is no white, only your eyes being fooled by bright lights.

Every batch of LEDs are slightly different, and there's no way to universally achieve the whitest whites across all boards. But we do what we can to get closer - Beyond that you will need to reduce blue and red.

Hope they will react on my support ticket as well for my TenZ keyboard 😛

[thorn pond]

im so excited for mine

[fluid berry]

I got my tracking today 😮

[hidden agate]

Niceee its a very nice board!

[gusty raft]

is it a good upgrade from wooting 60he+ , and are the switches wobbly

[zinc tulip]

Just got mine right now, so excited ❤️

[left nest]

no not at all, its lowkey like butter

and an upgrade to wooting 60he+ i wouldnt know because this is my first wooting keyboard

ive been wanting one for 5 years

[scarlet spade]

New to this situation, so my apologies, but using the Tikken on my board, I've noticed something while pressing my D key where it's a rough press, especially while pressing down on the right side. Like a scraping. I'm guessing to just replace the switch, but is it just some kind of spring issue?

[mortal oriole]

https://tenor.com/view/angry-angry-kid-congrats-nice-happy-for-you-gif-16045257244806990422

[zinc tulip]

I think it might be a spring issue so i would say to take out the switch and put some lube on it. If that doesn't work, just replace the switch with the extra ones included in the box

[scarlet spade]

Thanks. I'll try replacing it and see how it goes. after double checking if its properly inserted too. Figured it would be the spring but was unsure since it's a new feeling.

[zinc tulip]

all good, if all else fails, just ask in the community support channel for more help

[scarlet spade]

Double thanks, just changed the switch and it feels like the others now. Seeing some lube on the bottom already.

[brisk musk]

does anyone has the 80he plastic black with stock switches

[simple bear]

If my wooting 80he tenz collab rgb doesn't work on neither my pc and laptop while having brightness at 100% in cycle mode and no interference from another rgb application. It's probably a hardware issue that i should address to Wooting CS right?

[south wind]

yeah maybe

[south wind]

does it come with a white cable??? 💔💔

[left nest]

oh no thats my own cable

i ordered a black coiled cable its coming in soon

[south wind]

I currently have a green one 😭

does it not come w one ggs..

[left nest]

nono they do dw lmao this is what they give u

i personally like coiled cables better tho which is why i dont use the one they provide

[south wind]

oh errr ew

[south wind]

same

[tranquil robin]

just got my tenz keyboard but how do I know if I have a signed one?

[red heart]

Turn it around and look

[static field]

I’ve looked up and there is like no videos on a unboxing of that keyboard

[tranquil robin]

ahh so the under side of the keyboard would be signed right?

[red heart]

Yes

[tranquil robin]

ahh ok I thought it was the lil post card LMAO didnt get a signed one sadly still looks great

[zinc tulip]

interesting to see that no creator has come out with a video but from using it since 3pm today. its a very solid build. From all the features you get from a regular 80he. The switches feel buttery smooth. The software from wooting to customize the keyboard is very good and have made my own profiles for val, bf6, and arc. All in all im very impressed with this keyboard and would recommend it to others

[static field]

Hell yea mine got shipped today so hopefully in a couple of days it will be here

[icy charm]

TenZational

[left nest]

[cursive basin]

I'm just saying I've never had this issue with any other rgb on a keyboard. I feel like the calibration or quality control for (at least my batch) of 80he is really off, especially for a $300 keyboard. Not much I can do at this point tho I guess

[lunar nymph]

Got mine wooo(ting)!!

Did anyone get a signed one?

[sharp terrace]

Where can I listen to 80HE sound tests?

[lilac ibex]

The TenZ sound test is on the Wooting TenZ info page. There's multitudes of regular 80HE sound tests on YouTube.

[modest plover]

Got my Tenz 80HE. Think I prefer the 60HE V2...

Gonna keep it anyways though

[elfin fossil]

nice just got it too

[modest plover]

Shit, actually the more I type on it, the more I like it

[upper garden]

[tacit slate]

the tenz 80he is godly, best kb i've ever used

damn fr? mine comes on monday

[buoyant solstice]

There is though. You can keep adjusting the colour values.

[tacit slate]

Ye, it's awesome! I'm having mall learning curve since I'm coming from mechanical but it's so smooth

For me like putting on a pair of glasses the first time lol

[fluid berry]

sas i dont think i will get my keyboard today xD. Its code red here in the netherlands xD

[patent jackal]

Is it normal to hear a sticky sound from some of the keys? I notice this sound after the key has bottomed out and is returning to normal position

[atomic brook]

which?

[patent jackal]

The arrow keys and some other random keys scattered throughout

[atomic brook]

default switches?

prolly bad factory lubing

[patent jackal]

Tikken, raw zinc case if that matters

[atomic brook]

maybe it will settle after a bit of use

[patent jackal]

Yea we’ll see

[weary blade]

oh wth ur video was on my recommended lol

[jaunty jewel]

is it because of the split spacebar or...

[modest plover]

I take back what I said. There's a learning curve with the new tikkenz switches and cherry style keycaps

[rigid siren]

rly no way haha

[weary blade]

yeah, loved the video <3

[rigid siren]

thank you 🤝

[bold shale]

Mine is out for delivery 🙂 Picking it up after work

[fluid berry]

dont think i will get mine today

its to dangerous today outside

[cursive basin]

That just sacrifices brightness. I have to drop red to 185 and blue to 225 just to get close to white and even then it's still muddy. On the left is my 60he and on the right is my 80he, both set to 255,255,255 in wootility. That doesn't seem off to you??

[buoyant solstice]

Brightness will always be "sacrificed" though. All we're doing in firmware is the same just behind the scenes.

We use incredibly bright LEDs.

[cursive basin]

This just seems excessive on my 80he and almost more like I have an issue with my green LED's. I have had many custom boards and even quite a few mass manufactured boards from Razer, Keychron, Logitech and even other Wootings and I've never had an issue getting it to output something at least close to white out of the box. I'm willing to chalk it up to I just got a bad board from an early run but it doesn't feel great to be told this is normal when it isn't even close to white, especially for a $300 keyboard

[buoyant solstice]

To be clear - We can only provide context and potential workarounds here. If you want to contact support about this, you will need to use the website.

[cursive basin]

I know and I do appreciate your help, I sent another message to support but was told initially this was normal hence I'm here lol. Was just trying to see if this really is the norm for the 80he from others who have one or if I got a bad pcb

[astral nimbus]

I can try make my lights white as soon as my board arrive if you'd like, I currently have a razer which blackwidow which can go 'white white', but I've never used had a wooting or had experience with them

Should come in an hour or two

[bold shale]

According to most reports the Tikken switches get really bright and have great color accuracy.

[buoyant solstice]

Switches don't have LEDs.

[jolly burrow]

yess

[night turret]

Why not? :(

[shrewd cargo]

switches have tmr sensors 🙂

[buoyant solstice]

Because that's not how switches work. The LEDS are on the PCB.

[night turret]

I was trying to meme and then I realised once again you cannot read my mind, sorry Mansen. Preciate you

[cinder seal]

So my Tenz 80 arrived yesterday. It’s my first Wooting board. I’ll admit, I don’t get the hype. Decent board but underwhelming for me. And yeah, I will be sending it back. Gonna stick with my current he board. I appreciate Wooting but this board just isn’t for me.

[nova nexus]

Out of curiosity, what did you expect and what did you experience?

[opaque zodiac]

How do you know you got a signed one if you got one?

[weary leaf]

He signed the underside of the boards

[fervent roost]

There will be a big sign

(On the bottom side)

[bright jewel]

you will see a big tenz signature on the back of the board

[loud tangle]

What is your current board that you'll be sticking with?

[stray star]

Can I use a USB 2.0 port and cable and still use the full potential of my 80he?

[void zephyr]

dumb question but why is the 80he tenz discounted if I put one in my cart after buying it

was like £210 when I originally got it

[turbid crater]

yes

[stray star]

It probably doesn´t have keycaps selected.

[red heart]

its because taxes are not calculated until further in the checkout process

[void zephyr]

yeah that’d make sense 😭 my bad it kept coming up with a price adjustment popup, ty

[bright jewel]

there isnt a non-keycaps version available

[stray star]

oh

[bright jewel]

tenz is a ready-to-game board, it comes with everything on it as is

[boreal socket]

UK duties 🙂

[lilac ibex]

I think the TenZ is great and have no intention of returning it, but I ended up going back to my 80HE in the Zinc case.

[boreal socket]

Can always take your entire tenz module and stick it into your zinc case 👀

Best of both worlds eh

[atomic brook]

just yoink the zinc case

[lilac ibex]

I was thinking about just buying a Zinc case for it.

[boreal socket]

Would look nice inside a red gt80 as well

[lilac ibex]

I've been modding my "original" 80HE. That may be why I like it more.

[midnight iron]

if zinc white is still available in your outlet store it's literally best deal in our shop

i know we were running low on stock of those though

hard to argue with $55 for literal zinc case + the fancy travel case that comes with it

[quartz saddle]

I ate my zinc keyboard and got zinc poisoning

[bold shale]

It’s here. No signature, sadly but wow - a marked improvement over the standard 80HE in both sound and typing feel. The Lekker Tikken are very stable (almost no stem wobble) and they have upped the lubing of the stabilizers for sure. Very happy 🙂

[turbid crater]

$55 includes both zinc case and the travel case?

[quartz saddle]

I ate my tenz keyboard and turned into tenz

[midnight iron]

yeah, our zinc white case in outlet store comes with the travel case for packaging

it's why it's secretly crazy good value

[quartz saddle]

should I buy lekker tikken switches for my basic 80he

or is it borderline pointless

[midnight iron]

nothing wrong with switch upgrade, i think it's best way to improve overall feel/sound of 80he actually, because the old lekker v2 are not as good as tikkens and other more newer switches for sound and feel

[static field]

Hows the keyboard im getting mine tmr

[turbid crater]

wheres the outlet store?

[quartz saddle]

I care about feel and performance

are they overlubed like the v2 switches

[midnight iron]

https://wooting.io/outlet

[turbid crater]

damn 😭 i missed out

[midnight iron]

no idea what your definition of overlubed is, you can see the lubing job in our sound test of tikkens though

[turbid crater]

order is already on its way with tenz 80he and case

[midnight iron]

i'd say the tikkens are as lubed as you'd want to go without going into overlube land, but i don't know what your level is

[bold shale]

It’s the 80He, but better! The Tikken switches are a great improvement over the v2. And the TenZ ones are lighter and springier.

[quartz saddle]

the v2 had overlubed switches in the way where they felt like they literally had increased travel time and heavy resistance while pressing the keys

it got better with time, but thats because the lube basically started to come off after about a year of use

[static field]

never had a wooting so this will be my 1st haha

[bold shale]

You’re in for a treat

[quartz saddle]

@midnight iron this is my "limit"

I mean increased spring-back time

[lilac ibex]

I ordered the White Zinc case. It kind of makes sense to swap cases. Most of the keys in my current Black zinc case are white.

[midnight iron]

i can't tell much from that because that's such a personal level and feel thing

you can visually see how much lube is on the switches in our short though and decide for yourself: https://www.youtube.com/shorts/Ko0CE0cM-yY

[quartz saddle]

well how do base tikkens compare to the base v2's in that manner? because the v2's were just barely overlubed in my eyes

[quartz saddle]

do you have this of the v2s

[midnight iron]

unfortunately not no

[static field]

i hope so!

[lilac ibex]

I have the base Tikken in my 80HE. I like them considerably more than the V2 60's.

[bold shale]

They did an amzing job with the TenZ for sure!!!

[lilac ibex]

I feel like the TenZ Tikken are extremely stable. The base Tikken have some stem wobble, but it's not bad compared to most other switches.

[red heart]

they are the same

tenz just have a different color and use a different spring

[modest plover]

Might have to do with the Tenz having cherry keys where the stock 60 HE V2 has OEM profile keys that sort of sit a bit higher

[lilac ibex]

They don't feel the same to me. I have both.

I didn't think about keycap variance. I'm not using the stock keys on my 80HE Zinc, but the keys were a budget-ish product.

[buoyant solstice]

OEM and Cherry are basically identical. Such a small difference.

I think this is a strong case of placebo from the lighter* springs.

[lilac ibex]

Yep, put a stock keycap on and there's virtually no wobble. My bad.

[winter fossil]

Sorry of this is the wrong channel to ask, but are knobs still in development?

[buoyant solstice]

[fresh hedge]

hey, just read the modding FAQ and now im more confused than before.

i need arrow keys and some function keys so 80HE it is but the v2 switches sound like hot garbage at least the last time i used them (and the stability is kinda meh aswell ... )
i would like a heavy case and a non wobly keys ...

would my best bet be buy the build urselfe 80he with the zinc case and tikken switches ? or straight to owlad ti switches ? kinda hard to judge/decide without having the final product in/on hand/fingertips

or would the tenz edition just be the play

[rustic viper]

The tenz 80 has the tikken switches it it's still available

[midnight iron]

if you want tikken switches then the tenz is a good choice as it's basically an upgraded 80he with tikken switches and a stiffer plate

your other option is to buy an 80he module and just pick your own switches - there's a ton to choose from

if you want tikken switches though the tenz is great because it's basically within $10 of buying the parts separately, so there's practically no upcharge for the special tenz edition parts

[fresh hedge]

are the switches clear ? seem to be red in photos wich would fuck the the rgb goodness if u dont love red/black theme

ah nvm its freaking ansi layout

[midnight iron]

they are black but have a clear diffuser

oh you want iso?

yeah then your pick is to go 80he module then pick your own switches

[night turret]

(ew iso) obligatory post

[fresh hedge]

german pilled .... and using tons of diffrent keyboards daily ... so kinda forced to stay in one to not fuck myselfe half of the day with wrong inputs ...

I have my alloy white with PBTFANS X-RAY Keycaps

MY LORD the factory lube is amazing on these Lekker Tikkens (TenZ version). In the middle of the keystroke you feel like your finger is floating, that's how smooth it is!!! The added stability and improved stem wobble contributes to an absolutely AMAZING keystroke together with the FR4 plate.

It's almost otherwordly feeling, and this is coming from a mechanical keyboard and switch snob. Extremely well done!

[ebon forum]

Hi everyone! I just ordered my Wooting 80HE and I’m super excited to join the family. I went for the Zinc Alloy version with the ANSI layout. While I wait for it to arrive, I wanted to ask for some pro-tips:

** Firmware:** Do you recommend jumping straight into the Beta firmware for the latest features (Snap Tap/Rappy Snappy), or is Stable the way to go right now?

** Mounting:** For those who already have it, what’s your favorite mounting style? Gasket for the flex or Screw-in for a more solid feel?

** Gaming Profiles: **Does anyone have a "must-have" share code or specific settings for Valorant, CS2, League of Legends...?

** ANSI Transition**: I'm not very familiar with the ANSI layout (coming from ISO). For those who made the switch, was it easy to adapt? Any tips for typing comfortably?

**Zinc Alloy Case:** Since I got the Zinc version, is there anything specific I should know regarding its weight or care?

** Maintenance/Modding: **How is the factory lubing on the latest batches? Should I get some Krytox 205g0 for the stabs or are they good out of the box?

Also, if there’s anything else you think a new owner should know or any "hidden gems" in the Wootility settings, please let me know! I'm all ears.

Thanks in advance! Can't wait to try this beast. ♥️ 🖤

[forest portal]

hiiiiii can someone help me? is it possible to enable PER APP profiles???

[buoyant solstice]

Officially? Not yet.

https://github.com/ShayBox/Wooting-Profile-Switcher
But this exists.

[bold shale]

It’s extremely easy to adapt to ANSI. I came from ISO-Nordic and I almost can’t go back at this point. ANSI is so much better for FPS with the large left shift key. The only thing I don’t like is the puny Enter key, haha.

[red heart]

you are like the fourth person coming in with an entirely AI generated question list, some of them being easy to answer yourself or irrellevant but i will answer anyway:

• beta or stable are both fine, both have snap tap or rappy snappy available.
• gasket mount is the only one available, screw in is not a thing with 80he
• the profile stuff is mostly preference and tweaking things yourself to your liking
• ANSI has one fewer key than ISO which can be jarring (next to the left shift) you get used to the enter location quickly but since some other keys are shifted those can be difficult
• not really any specific cleaning advice, just try to keep it clean and away from corrosive liquids (cola for example)
• lube on the switches is fine, whether the stabs need a retune is something you need to see for yourself.

[ebon forum]

Sorry about that! My English is quite poor, so I used some help to translate my thoughts and make sure I was using the right technical terms. I really appreciate you taking the time to answer anyway, especially the clarification about the mounting and the stabilizers. It helps a lot! Thanks!

[ebon forum]

I totally agree with you on the Left Shift! That’s actually one of the main reasons I decided to make the jump to ANSI. Having that extra space for the pinky during intense FPS sessions seems like a game-changer. I’ll probably miss the big Enter key for a few days, but it sounds like a fair trade-off! Thanks for the insight.

[forest portal]

YOU TOTALLY ROCK

anyone know a good replacement key/advanced key for fn?

i wish i didnt had to use right hand for fn

[bold shale]

Your English is perfectly fine, by the way.

[ebon forum]

Thanks! To be honest, I do use AI to help me structure my questions. My English isn't great, and using it allows me to express myself clearly and get concise answers, which is exactly what I was looking for.

[bold shale]

I mean that is perfectly fine by me. I use AI every day to improve my productivity at work.

[ebon forum]

You’re right. I use it because my English is limited, and while it helps me express myself, I know it sometimes messes up or adds questions that might be obvious or redundant. I'm still learning about the product, so I'd rather ask a 'stupid' question than miss something important!

[nova nexus]

Using AI for translations is one of the best uses that exist

Large language models are good at language 😛

[upper garden]

you werent kidding about the AI generated question list 😭

anyone got a signed tenz collab yet? im curious to see what it looks like

[spark hound]

steve jobs once said: you're holding it wrong

[fading timber]

so given that wooting 80he tenz collab is out if I already have a wooting 80he could I just buy the parts from the collab?

[buoyant solstice]

No. Parts are not sold separately. 🙂

[viral kettle]

is there any major differences between the hardware of the 60he v2 and the tenz 80he? idk enough about keyboards to rly get that from the website haha

[buoyant solstice]

Same performance. Different mounting mechanism, plate material and switch weight.

[fading timber]

oh rip nvm js saw the announcement

[viral kettle]

i thought so, but good to know, thank you!

[fading timber]

kind of just looking for the fr4 plate

[devout spindle]

Hey

I’ve ordered today like this

Some1 can tell me that it will come assembled or I have to do it myself ? 🫣

[buoyant solstice]

Gotta assemble it yourself. You ordered a module - That's how it works.

[red heart]

I see no keycaps

[buoyant solstice]

Keycaps, right. That's what I meant to say. Feck 😄

[devout spindle]

Ah thanks I’ve was thinking the same , I have my own keycaps Traitors Kabuki

I have to confess. I did not really know who tenz was before this keyboard

[lilac ibex]

That makes two of us.

[bold shale]

Three. But he did a damn fine job designing the specs!

[lilac ibex]

I didn't buy it because of the person who collab'd it though. I bought it for the aesthetics and what it came with. It could have been anyone and I would have still bought it.

[bold shale]

Yeah the specs fit me perfectly, that’s why I bought it.

[nova nexus]

Hoping for the start of summer, but there's a lot that can change between now and then.
The bulk of our returned products have historically been returned to our Dutch fulfillment center (or more accurately, a barn in the countryside for long term storage until we started this refurbishment process) so there are far fewer units available for refurbishment in the US and no nearby Wooting Team to make it happen

[proven hearth]

Wooting US team when

[nova nexus]

Problem with hiring in the US is that every state is different... If we could just "hire in the US" then it'd be worth investigating. But it's not... It's "you can hire in specifically this state" and then have to deal with all kinds of totally different employment regulations and requirements for each state

[fervent roost]

You hire in Germany

[nova nexus]

Indeed

For the right person, it's worth going through the hassle to set up the administrative capacity to hire in their region. Then it becomes simple to hire more people from there.

[fervent roost]

I highkey would like to join the woot team, I will try to apply soon

[night turret]

I should really apply too

[pseudo junco]

OK where can I send my application if you are hiring

I know a lot about keyboard

[upbeat berry]

https://wooting.io/career

no one saw that

[pseudo junco]

something might disqualify me however I have atypical taste in switch

I like silent switches 🙂

[upbeat berry]

keyboard knowledge is not part of our hiring requirements

[pseudo junco]

oh ok

is it more about personnality or technical knowledge?

[upbeat berry]

its about fitting the job and personality

if youre part of HR you dont need any technical knowledge on IT

just HR knowledge

[bright jewel]

https://giphy.com/gifs/SAHGcjT1jNvDB6oxI8

and you can always learn things along the way, if youre willing ofc

[upbeat berry]

ye most people prob learnt their keyboard stuff while working for us

[pseudo junco]

yeah I can imagine

but I am more of a technical person I know nothing about HR

[night turret]

Do you take interns

[fervent roost]

I will see you soon

[nova nexus]

Generally no, with the exception being if you come to us saying "I have a skillset that enables me to complete this project which will add value to Wooting in this way, and I can complete it within the scope of an internship"

[upbeat berry]

there is an open call where you can apply for any position really if you think you can truly add something valuable to our team.

[night turret]

Thank you for your answer Mark!

Is your rendering of products/concepts in house or contracted?

Wait I thought I was in #💬│general , sorry

[nova nexus]

In house

[pseudo junco]

Thank you for your answer!

[cerulean orbit]

Anyone with the white zinc v2 case? I'm curious what people think of it

[fallen epoch]

I have a skillset that allows me to crunch effortlessly and effectively in a fast paced environment. This will add value to the company as this will improve logistics times and reduce the stress of the rest of the team. This can be done without the need for an internship as i am a certified professional.

[indigo sky]

Hello guys,

I'm totally new in the magnetic keyboard universe, just learned it existence and naturally, I came to know Wooting.

I made a lot of researchs but I need a final advice please about the build I'm going for :

• Wooting 80 HE Module
• Layout ISO French
• PCR Plastic Case
• First I was going to choose the Lekker Tikken Medium but now I'm aiming for the Gateron Jade Pro (Dual SMD > classic right ?)
• I'll continue my researchs on keycaps since we are very limited in ISO French but if I don't find anything good, I'll go with the Double-shot PBT Keycap Set from Wooting
• Gateron stabilizer for space/shift/enter (since I'm ordering the switchs on their website)
• Some foam pads (my next research but I'll probably try those later)
• Some tape of course

Or easier and I take the Tenz, swap 2-3 keycaps + Wootility remap and bet on my muscle memory to remember where I need to press

Could a kind soul help me choose the right path please ?

Thank you !

[upbeat berry]

please dont spam it

[green oar]

is anyone able to send me their/a wooting 80he iso german layout (there’s lit none online)

[brisk ruin]

It's a bit unclear what you want. Do you mean a picture how to put on the keycaps, or a wootility profile?

[green oar]

keycap layout

[brisk ruin]

Have you considered looking at the QR code on the 80HE box? https://wooting.io/wooting-80he-quickstart-guide#installing-keycaps select German, obviously

[green oar]

thanks

[night turret]

Don't get jade pros

[indigo sky]

Gravastar UFO ? 🤔

[night turret]

They're not great and you'll have a better experience with tikken medium

I don't suggest buying 120 usd switches on a whim, no

With the module, the tikken mediums are 50% off

Great if not fantastic value

[indigo sky]

They were my first choices before seeing lot of people saying they prefer Jade Pro over Tikken Medium

Yes Tikken medium are at 25€ and Jade Pro about 60$

[night turret]

I think jade pros are outdated

Jade pros over the old lekkers, sure

But not over tikkens medium

This isn't just lekker tikkens because it's a wooting made list

They are genuinely good

[indigo sky]

But is it a fact that Lekker Tikken Medium > Lekken 60 v2 ?
I don't see those in the list despite being in the default build

[night turret]

As a fellow consumer I wholeheartedly recommend the lekker tikken medium as the best switch wooting sells directly

The lekker tikken mediums are the newest wooting switches

[night turret]

Regarding your question, night and day, yes

I personally run gravastar UFOs and sure, if you're willing to gamble on 120 usd, go for it. They're great. But I also own lekker tikken medium and they're much more value/price to me

With the discount they give you I'd even say buy them as a backup even if you go for something else

[weary leaf]

A couple of corrections for the sake of accuracy, 87 UFOs are ~90$ and it's not a gamble now, tried and tested.

[night turret]

By gamble I mean is

If it's your very first HE keyboard

[indigo sky]

Nice to know, thank you

Coming from mecanical keyboard, I think it can be only better in any way (as long it doesn't make too much noise so my wife decide to kill me)

I'll take the Tikken Medium

[night turret]

I call it a gamble if you haven't had an HE before, does that make more sense?

You don't know what you like yet imo

I love my UFOs

:D

But they are very distinct in their profile imo

[indigo sky]

Should I buy something else or Wooting 80HE module + Tikken Medium + PBT keycaps + PCR case + wrist rest are enough ?

[night turret]

That'll set you up nicely imo

[indigo sky]

So no need to get the torento mod kit, the tape mod or pads/foam ?

[lime falcon]

No

[indigo sky]

Thank you

[pseudo junco]

I want to get the gravastar ufo but out of stock

[prisma lynx]

where r my goat switchses ur ice ultras

[lilac ibex]

The UFO seem to be unicorns. Or if you can get them from other places they want like $27 for 10 of them.

At least that's my experience in the US.

I don't know if I'll honestly find an HE switch I like more price to performance as much as the Lekker Tikken Mediums. I've bought multiple other sets and always go back to the Tikken. But I don't have to worry about having a lack of switches if there's ever a HE switch apocalypse.

Well….

I should make deeper research bef I’ve made an order that my fault ikr- jist wanted to change L45 into L60

😞

uhhh might check your orders in some minutes it might be on hold idk

or hope some nice staff sees this and can tell you wether its on hold or not

You don't get support for your order on discord

yep, just checked and it says that its on its way! I don't want to sound like that guy, but anyone know / remember how long it takes usually?

[devout spindle]

Depends of distance and carrier i guess

[lilac ibex]

When your order ships, you can see the tracking information in the hub too.

[devout spindle]

On website its like 3-7 days

Hey guys I just got my wooting 80 he but I have some problems with it

I get “an error occurred trying to save the profile to the keyboard” and it keeps disconnecting an reconnect again without saving the settings. Can anyone help me fix this problem?

I already tried different usb ports and even the usb c port

I am using the web based software via google chrome

[lilac ibex]

I may have a Wooting addiction problem... I just ordered more Tikken Medium and the 45cN springs. Gonna keep a set stock, going to make a lighter set that's hand lubed. Then I can compared between stock, TenZ and TenZ-esque.

[paper mirage]

just upgraded to the tenz 80he from the original 60he and all i can say is this feels much more premium

[light raven]

agreed

[sturdy monolith]

Hoping I don't regret buying the white zinc 80he over the tenz one lol

Think I'll be happy regardless just a shame those tenz boards aren't iso layout

[light raven]

only thing i wasnt ready for was the switch from 60 to 80 percent

[sturdy monolith]

Feel like you'll adjust quickly

I could never go to 60 personally I just miss the functionality too much of an 80%

[light raven]

iv used 60 for like 6 years so its a bit differeant lol

[sturdy monolith]

My wooting comes tomorrow, just hope my osume keycaps aren't too far out lol

They ship from Canada so might be a while on those 🥀

hi guys, i’ve been wanting to customize my wooting80 i just couldn’t find any cases do you guys have an website recs?

[radiant badger]

Why is tachyon mode not enables on the tenz profile with 80HE tenz?

[midnight iron]

the other profiles have it available, but the first one that loads up doesn't because we were worried some people would hop into cs2 or similar game and get themselves kicked

that's why there's the other variants of the tenz profile loaded in the board as well, just not in the default slot

[radiant badger]

Tachyon mode doesnt kick u out from games- i think its socd and all that

[midnight iron]

tachyon in particular we kept off because some people have dodgy power usb issues, so it was safer to have it off in the profile 1 slot as well

in case they get stuck into some loop where their dodgy usb connection is bad and they can't adjust things because the board keeps bugging out with it on

[atomic brook]

its on the tenz ultra profile

along side socd

[midnight iron]

yeah basically if you want the full bells and whistles options you can swap to the tenz ultra, where we took the safety rails off

[mental agate]

Does anyone know if the last date on the estimate delivery date is the maximum delivery date?

[midnight iron]

they're just rough estimated ranges, not any firm maximum/min thing

[carmine ether]

I wouldn't count on it. I ordered on January 17 and it was supposed to arrive between January 19 and January 24. I haven't received anything yet.

[buoyant solstice]

For context Finn is experiencing a shipping issue* This is not normal.

[mental agate]

Thank you for the feedbacks.

It's been three days but the order hasn't been packed yet. Hopefully it ships out soon

[fluid berry]

I waited 3 days before it was packed but i life in the netherlands so maby thats why its faster at my place xD

I need to learn to work with my keyboard haha. Its responding so fast that i sometimes exedentily click on things haha

[spark hound]

change the actuation point to avoid accidental presses

[fluid berry]

ye will change that tonight xD

[stiff finch]

i kept it, still adjusting tho

[thick iron]

Well, after more and more ALL LED blink and just the keyboard stop working sometimes, i dismantled to check the JST connection cable to PCB, it was in the air when i pull off the case.. so big chance all dc of the keyboard was because of this !

I pushed it with nails gently at max i can and re mount the keyboard, 🤞 hope it will fix it

[modern swallow]

mine was supposed to come next monday but came today so it might even come earlier than you expect !

[mental agate]

Once you get used to it there is no going back hahaha
