Would you guys recommend to swap stock stabs to knight v4 / typeplus?

[red heart]

only if you are not satisfied with stock stabs

[crimson bone]

To be honest that my first custom build and i want some recommendations on what things to mod first besides switches. The stabs were mentioned the most

What would you say are the most ROI mods?

[red heart]

stabs wont change the sound or feel much, as long as the ones you currently have are propely tuned and dont bring any unwanted noise (rattle etc)

[crimson bone]

Is it better then to delay purchase of aftermarket stabs and just buy the lube for stock ones?

[red heart]

tape mod is cheap and can be good depending on what you like (i personally run no tape), trying out different dampening materials like poly fill for example can also be very cheap. After that new switches and a different plate are more expensive but change a lot, finally a case will be the most expensive mod and its mostly looks and some sound stuff

[crimson bone]

What would you recommend for someone like me that only had mainstream keyboards from asus, logitech etc? I ordered black zinc prebuilt and picking between Novas and UFOs, besides that im not sure what should i mod (if anything). Maybe leave as is at least for some time?

[red heart]

oh yeah, keycaps are also mostly looks and can get very expensive

[red heart]

if you are interested in trying some different stuff out, you can just grab some cheap supplies to mix and match and see if you prefer one setup over the other.

you can do a tapemod with painter's tape and swapping internal foam with poly fill is also very very cheap

[crimson bone]

Do i get that on ali? I looked up torontokeyboardman but almost everything is sold out

[red heart]

what

painter's tape and poly fill can be purchased at a local shop

[crimson bone]

I mean plate and foam

[red heart]

ali is fine for plate and foam yeah

just make sure its the correct plate, most plates are for ansi so if you are using ISO you will run into issues

[crimson bone]

So regarding stabs i think i will leave stock ones but might lube them. In what form should i buy 205g0 - can and brush, syringe etc?

[paper wedge]

Will there be any new colorways for the 80HE zinc alloy case?

[slate lark]

Any mods that I can do to the 80he?

[lucid heath]

Tape mod I believe.

[slate lark]

Anything else?

[bright jewel]

you can go as crazy as you want

[lucid heath]

Custom key caps, switches, cases, foam insert, custom lubing, stabilizers,

[slate lark]

First 3 are in the way

Foam insert might be interesting

[lucid heath]

I know some people like fancy cables. But I'll probs get an ltt true spec c to c cable.

[placid sentinel]

I just need to sell two Pokémon cards than I get fin sky get the Wooting80HE

[crimson bone]

I was asking about this

[abstract flower]

why is f2 till f7 in red?

[spring vapor]

its on its period

[bright jewel]

Seems like the colours you assigned to them

[placid sentinel]

Im so exited to buy mine 🙂

How long does it usually take to ship to the US?

[bright jewel]

whatever the website tells you :)

[placid sentinel]

But I can’t buy it yet, so that’s why I’m asking

[buoyant solstice]

The checkout still gives you an estimate before paying 🙂

[placid sentinel]

Ok

[bright jewel]

[placid sentinel]

Dang thats pretty quick if I buy it now it comes March 9 to 14

[abstract flower]

how can i change that i usally use SignalRGB

[runic oasis]

I'm trying to change the switches on my Wooting 80 HE Tenz version and they won't come out, what do I have to do?

[bright jewel]

in our software, wootility

[bright jewel]

try to wiggle them lose with the switch puller

[red heart]

I would recommend taking the plate off and pushing them out from underneath

[abstract flower]

im to stupid to find it 🙁

[lucid cape]

Anyone got a good tip on a good starting point settings wise (actuation/rapid on or off etc) when you come from a 7 year old razer blackwidow elite with yellow linear (1.2 actuation) switch?
I got a 80he for about 4 days now, but started absolutely sucking in any game i play when i swapped to this board. Got quite a bit of hours already on it but idk where to start really.
So far i use 1.4 actuation on all keys and 0.4 rapid on all keys + tachyon mode...

[atomic brook]

id say like 0.4 to 0.7 ish

for all settings

then adjust with pref

[lucid cape]

Actuation 0.4-0.7 all keys and no Rapid?

[atomic brook]

no like actuation and rapid can all be in this range

[lucid cape]

Wow that sound really low

[atomic brook]

i mean its pretty safe actually

mine and most others are lower than that

[lucid cape]

Really XD

I mean, i feel like i need some softer transition settings haha i just dont know tbh

Maybe just transition without Rapid trigger or something

[storm jay]

is there some info about dimension of he80?

I would like to know what the total length is

[heavy peak]

Is there a date for when the wooting 80he restocks on the outlet store?

[lucid heath]

Generally it will say the date If they know.

[snow mica]

I mean it is in stock rn

I just bought one

[heavy peak]

Are you in US?

[proven hearth]

the us isnt getting that stock anytime soon

last time i asked it was summer at the earliest

[jade stream]

for the prebuilt wooting 80 he what swtiches does it come with the lekker tikken medium?

[night dagger]

it comes with the lekker l60 v2

[buoyant solstice]

Only the 60HEv2 and TenZ edition uses Tikken out of box.

[snow mica]

80HEs can be upgraded with Tikkens retroactively though, correct?

[buoyant solstice]

Yes 🙂

[elfin coyote]

can someone help me ion here;

withy rgb

[snow mica]

awesome, I got a refurb model on order rn, I am thinking of replacint the switches on it sometime later down the line, but rn the money was only enough for the keeb as is

[elfin coyote]

@atomic brook

can you help mem out

[atomic brook]

with?

[elfin coyote]

rgb please bro your the only guy her

here

[atomic brook]

what abt rgb?

[buoyant solstice]

Here's an idea. Ask your actual question instead of poking people everywhere.

[elfin coyote]

its not working for me

[buoyant solstice]

Then you'll need to make a #1019755933959733258 thread. Most likely another app is taking over.

[elfin coyote]

there offline

[atomic brook]

wym by not working?

[elfin coyote]

i just got my keyboard today

[atomic brook]

yea id post in https://discordapp.com/channels/167181566978555904/1019755933959733258

[snow mica]

I mean what other RGB softwares do you have?

[spring vapor]

attention span final boss

[elfin coyote]

sinal

[wild moth]

which keyboard is better the 60he v2 or the 80he

[elfin coyote]

i fix i7

[buoyant solstice]

The one you prefer.

Same performance, different amount of keys and different mounting mechanism.

[elfin coyote]

i fix it

[wild moth]

so they're just the same but the 80 is bigger

doesn't the 80he have 8k polling and the 60he 1k

doesn't that make a differece?

[lucid heath]

mansen is talking about the 60he v2

[wild moth]

the 60he v2 has 8k too?

[buoyant solstice]

Yes.

[wild moth]

alright ty

cuz I wanted to buy the v2 and then I heard ppl talk about the 8k polling of the 80he but I didn't know if the v2 had the same polling

[lucid heath]

i recomend looking at the product page

it surprisingly has information about it

[wild moth]

yeah thanks 😭

I did read the page but I guess I read over that part

[crimson bone]

European gravastar website sold out all UFOs this night
Whats a good alternative?

[lime falcon]

Keytok Nova, Wuque Flux, TTC Horse

[crimson bone]

What switches are your favorite? Just interested

[lime falcon]

I use UFOs now, but also like Flux and Horse

[snow mica]

I thought Gravastar stuff sucked

[lime falcon]

Switches are good

[crimson bone]

Can be but switches are good

[night turret]

The Gravastar UFOs are great tbh

The keeb and mice are a bit much for me

[frail carbon]

How great are we speaking?

I was very much considering getting a gravastar keyb for the UFO switches

[night turret]

I don't know what you like so I can't answer that

It's purely sound and feel

I wouldn't buy a gravastar just to pluck out switches

[frail carbon]

What have you had previously, and how would you compare them?

[night turret]

Previously I had Lekker v2 60s

And the difference is night and day

[frail carbon]

I was in the market for a whole new keyb regardless as my keychron k2 he be sussing (PCB issues and out of warranty so rip)

[night turret]

looks at the channel name

Uh, I'd get an 80HE Tenz rn tbh

While stock lasts, comes with Lekker Tikken Mediums

[frail carbon]

This is what I ended up ordering, comes next Thursday and I'm excited

[night turret]

I think you'll be pleasantly surprised

[frail carbon]

Definitely, I'm excited as hell. Rn I'm using a spare office membrane keyboard in place of my broken k2 he too, so like triple the excitement lmao

[warm creek]

Does anyone know what the piece is called that my usbc chord connects to on my wooting? I want to replace it, it seems to be loose and my keyboard randomly disconnects while gaming <@&476752926044454928>

[vagrant brook]

i have keychron k8 pro alu atm, ordered normal black 80he, will plastic feel wobbly on this kb after using alu one?

[unborn sierra]

when is the black zinc v2 coming out?

i can't let them have my money yet until i get the black version

and the v1's are not here atm for me

[buoyant solstice]

Please don't ping staff.
It's called a daughterboard.

https://wooting.io/support

[warm creek]

I appreciate the information in a very rude manner. I won’t ping staff anymore, it was my one and only time.

[buoyant solstice]

I don't make the rules, but I do expect everyone here to follow them 😄

[lucid cape]

Which keycaps are these ?

[opal spade]

https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005009780239468.html

[lucid cape]

lmao thats cheap

are these double shot PBT?

and how do they sound?

[opal spade]

says PBT so not sure if double-shot

[lucid cape]

u can see if double shot right

[opal spade]

they sound pretty ok. I'd say the wooting keycaps are better somewhat

[lucid cape]

when u look inside the keycap

[opal spade]

oh right let me check

[opal spade]

Doesn't look like it?

[lucid cape]

Aye

[opal spade]

So they may get worn out huh

But i rly dont like how fully see-through the xvx are

I wanted the light to shine strictly through the pattern

Which it does for those keys

[lucid cape]

Yeah they look decent

especially for the price ;D

[opal spade]

they are very pretty, for however long they'll last

the texture feels matte, kinda like the wooting ones

[worn compass]

ACCIDENTALLY BROKE ONE OF THE CLIPS ON ONE SWITCH

[opal spade]

surely you have some spares?

[worn compass]

Yeah I do, I’m not that dumb lol

[opal spade]

Not about being dumb, but usually u got some left over from a full box of 'em

so i had my fingers crossed for you

[worn compass]

All the broken clip does is make the switch exponentially harder to pull out but its still a bummer :/

[opal spade]

yeah i get the feel

[worn compass]

Swept most of the hair and dust out, just polishing with a dry microfiber cloth

Done polishing everything just gonna put the switches in again. Gonna inspect all of them first tho just to make sure I didn’t break any others

Everything seemed fine

Got them in now onto the keycaps

[rugged quartz]

Looks beautiful

[alpine kernel]

question for cleaning the keyboard am i able to use one of those air cans like you would for a pc or do I need to take the keys out cause i duno how

[worn compass]

Got everything back together

How is it so far

[rugged quartz]

Amazing I love it such a game changer

[snow mica]

btw you may wanna claim your rank as a wooting owner

[rugged quartz]

how do i do that?

[snow mica]

Link the wooting account you purchased your keeb with with your discord account on the website

[snow mica]

Then under my accout select refresh rewards once linked

Is it better to leave the debounce filter option on or off?

Hey guys, just recieved my Ghost case 80he with the Wooting x TTC RGB switches, might be the best purchase i've made in a while

[fierce torrent]

Have there been any updates on the black zinc case?

Been holding off on my keyboard purchase cause I REALLY want it 😭

[buoyant solstice]

Could be months. No news yet.

[fierce torrent]

Pff ok

Might just have to suck it up and buy it

Anyone able to recommend the GT-80 cases?

[upper garden]

good case

[red heart]

Very goog

[fervent roost]

Best case imo
I am 100% biased

[fierce torrent]

"Pre-Order" so they are sold out?

[upper garden]

they should be restocking soon

you can join the kbfans discord server and find out

[fierce torrent]

Ok

[quasi hill]

What is that mousepad?

[fierce torrent]

So my accent keycaps are a darkish grey, then the main colour is white, i feel like grey case makes sense then but idk if the lack of a darker case will look good or not, anyone have input on that?

[red heart]

i have a gray gt80 but honestly i think a silver would have looked nicer

[thorny fox]

SNOWSTONE XL from Higround

It's really nice

[viscid python]

My gt80 case should be here and if gravastar can stop being slow pokes and send me the rest of my ufos

I have a feeling my ufos are delayed cus they where in stock for a 10pk and 65pk so I bought that and then the 10pk is out of stock so

[heady gale]

wihch game

[viscid python]

?

[viscid python]

[heady gale]

wdym by ufos

[viscid python]

Gravastar UFO switches

[heady gale]

ooooh

[viscid python]

I bought a 10pk a week ago. Cus that's all they had.

Then they had more 10pk and the 65pk in stock.

But if the 10pk was purchased before mine went through then my order won't ship until restock.

[left jetty]

Hey folks, I am considering purchasing a Wooting, is this the appropriate channel for questions (tell me and I will delete and move the message to another channel if you say so)
I decided on buying an 80 HE from the website along with the Lekker Tikken medium (I wanted quieter switches but I guess these will do because I didn't want any of the inaccuracy that comes with dampening as Wooting stated on the linked switch list and noise isn't too big of a concern, also the sites for any of the listed switches seem slightly dodgy)
I am looking for 2 things:

1. Wooting compatible keycaps that come with a split spacebar
2. Alternative cases, preferably with some heft to them like the metal ones Wooting offers (I will default to a white, zync alloy Wooting case if no offers are available at a reasonable price)
   The end result I want is a RGB lit keyboard in colors in the purple-pink range or one that will take those colors well if the RGB lighting takes these colors

Thanks in advance

[brisk ruin]

Can't really answer anything, just want to make sure because of your first question: You know the 80HE does not have a split spacebar, yes?

[left jetty]

I assumed it would because of this configuration option being available

Am I wrong to assume that

[brisk ruin]

It's because of the 60HE v2, the set is just multipurpose

[weary leaf]

No, that keycap set is just a thorough set for the 60HE v2, it will be offered for both

[fervent roost]

well the 80HE doesn't have a numpad either

[weary leaf]

again it's a set, you aren't meant to use all of it, it's just thorough enough that it fits anything you buy from Wooting

[left jetty]

Should've noticed that, I do want a set of keycaps without a numpad because I am used to laptop keyboards

[weary leaf]

The splitbar addition was necessary due to the 60HE v2 release

[left jetty]

Thanks, would have missed that otherwise

A split spacebar isn't really a top priority, just thought it would be nice

[fervent roost]

btw take a look at the GT80 from KBDfans

pretty case

[weary leaf]

We also think it would be nice for 80HE, but if they ever make it, remains to be seen

[crimson bone]

@weary leaf can you recommend a keebmat? I saw you mention it. Just want to move to artisan mousepads and only way to do it is to get rid of my deskmat

[weary leaf]

Felt tbh, whichever color fits closer to your case color

[crimson bone]

Is there a difference in sound?

[weary leaf]

slight yeah

[crimson bone]

And what size would you recommend, 80he edition?

[weary leaf]

thats one property and reason to buy it

80HE edition yep

[crimson bone]

Is it in a way that one is more thockier or clackier etc?

[weary leaf]

i did the same thing btw, and i used to be an XXL user (900x400)

[brisk ruin]

Whichever keycaps you go with, the important point is only that it has a cross-stem, often called Cherry MX, which should be the case for most modern keycaps. If you find RGB important, the switches are north facing, so avoid south facing legends

[weary leaf]

I can't say what buzzword it made it closer to honestly, i use it nearly from the same time i got my 80HE

[left jetty]

Thanks, these seem like what I was looking for
I do have a question though
Do you have any long term experience with these? do they wear in a noticeable way in the span of a year?

[crimson bone]

Felt one?

[weary leaf]

I would get that yeah

i got a medium gray to start with for my Ghost

but i will order the light and dark sometime later

[crimson bone]

I have black zinc so probably dark grey

[weary leaf]

get dark ye

[fervent roost]

it's a pretty alu case with good quality

[left jetty]

I am also taking any keycap suggestions, I saw that wave design here https://discord.com/channels/167181566978555904/1478935359550394531 and thought it looked great, I am open to any semi transparent designs that work with RGBs (I am aware the post is for the 60 HE, unfortunately I can't live without the fn key row)

[left jetty]

I see, thanks <3

[fervent roost]

can look up some reviews or ask fellow users @proven hearth has the GT60 and likes it a lot

[brisk ruin]

It's called a topograhic design, if you're looking for keywords

[left jetty]

Thanks, I am new to all the keyboard jargon

[proven hearth]

can confirm, gt-60 bestest case

gt-80 will be just as nice

[brisk ruin]

Well that one's because of the maps showing topograhic information, so not really keyboard

[proven hearth]

(technically a bit nicer)

[slate lark]

Patiently waiting for my wooting and gt80 to arrive

[left jetty]

Thanks

[slate lark]

Wish DPD was a bit more clear on shipping status

[fervent roost]

btw I forgor to ask, do you like the anodized purple?

[fervent roost]

DPD is terrible at least where I am

[slate lark]

It's alright for me

Apparently it cleared Netherlands customs on the 5th in Netherlands but it didn't say it the package was collected

[left jetty]

As is on the pictures on the site it is a bit too dark, will probably go with it either way. (https://kbdfans.com/products/gt-80-case?variant=44982909272203)

[lime aspen]

Pbtfans xray 👍

Imo the single best looking keycaps with rgb

[atomic brook]

whats ur budget?

[jade stream]

if i were to buy the module and build it myself cause i want the lekker tikken would the zinc case for the white version be v2 because the prebuilt specfically states it but idk if im buying the v1 white version if i were to build it

[lime falcon]

That's v2 white zinc

v1 is only available in outlet store

[still ether]

sorry youre not tuff keychron better

[tidal mountain]

keychron not really

very bad service

[left jetty]

For the caps, no more than 40$ I think, though that is flexible

[left jetty]

Out of stock sadly

[tidal mountain]

If i order the module to pick other switches. will it be pre assembled when delivered?

[finite lantern]

If you order the module you have to assemble it yourself

[amber bloom]

how do i keep my wooting 80he clean?

[fervent roost]

i dont its white every small dusty partical is clearly visible

[devout locust]

Oh white yeah that’s why I always get black

[pliant wolf]

Yo does anyone have a picture of there like wires that come from the USB port

Cuz mine I think has 2 that have been put in wrong and it's causing disconnection issues

[atomic brook]

i think with shipping, id say wooting keycaps are much better at that price points, unless u want to gamble on quality with the cheaper keycaps for a colour u like

[left jetty]

If I set the budget a little higher, what would you suggest?

[devout locust]

Like the usb attachment?

[buoyant solstice]

That's not how it works

[junior sinew]

Does the tachyon mode matter that much? like i've had it enabled since I bought the keyboard, but I only really play world of warcraft, but I want my keyboard to have a nice design on it, does it matter all that much to have it on vs not? performance wise

[fervent roost]

well tachyon mode makes a differnce but you most likely wont be able to feel a difference it's like from 1ms to 0.125ms or wtv

[atomic brook]

$ - FBB
$$ - Osume, Keyreative, PBTFan, Keykobo, Domikey
$$$ -GMK
is my reccomendation

mb wrong reply

[junior sinew]

Oh okay, for a game lik wow do you think it's that beneficial? might just have a mode I can select with it on/off

[fervent roost]

don't think it's beneficial

[atomic brook]

fbb is like ur slightly above budget range without shippin g

[junior sinew]

appreciate it

[fickle wasp]

Is the mode button not supposed to swap between all the active profiles? It only does 2

[proven hearth]

it swaps between your current and the last used profile

[atomic brook]

change it to cycle

[fickle wasp]

I literally was about to say that, thanks 😄

[atomic brook]

nw, saw u playing overwatch

how is it?

[fickle wasp]

You did? On Twitch?

[atomic brook]

ya

[fickle wasp]

I love it, it's such a good game (if you have competent communicative teammates)

Are there files to 3d print standoffs for the plate and pcb wooting80he?

Tikkens

Jade pros are so ass

Please do not buy jade pros in the big 2026

[serene mist]

okay, so i will buy tenz 80he now

what should i do next?

[hardy hollow]

Enjoy it

[serene mist]

do i need to do this service?

[fervent roost]

What are you even ordering?
Didn't you talk about the Tenz?

[hardy hollow]

Guess we're not ordering a wooting anymore

Also why is the tape mod 15 dollars

[fervent roost]

What even is this

this is not wootings website

Gosh i cant wait

[serene mist]

I want to order, but im in indonesia and wooting not shipping to Indonesia

So i need to buy from authorized reseller here

[serene mist]

Yes its authorized reseller here

[fervent roost]

This looks like a scammy site tho

The Tenz board is already assembled..

[serene mist]

No, its not, they have a offline physical store, everything is expensive in here 😭

[fervent roost]

If you buy the Tenz board from wooting, it is pre assembled.. this site looks really ehhhh scammy for me

[serene mist]

I see, so i just need to enjoy it ya

https://www.instagram.com/rf_laboratory?igsh=MW8wdG83dWlyaWE1Ng==

[serene mist]

This is the story instagram, they provide expensive service

[fervent roost]

Tbf, I don't know how your country works.. all I can say this looks pretty ehh to me
You will be probably better informed

All I can tell you, if you order from wootings page the board is pretty good outta of the box

[atomic brook]

looks fine

just not needed, its mostly for group buy mechanical keebs

[crimson bone]

Do i need stem spacers for my 80he with gravastar ufo switches? Stock pbts

[lime falcon]

No

[crimson bone]

But i’ve seen a picture here that says they are exactly for this situation

[lime falcon]

You only use spacers if you have issues. With stock keycaps or any other decent quality keycap sets, you won't run into any issues when using 3.5mm switches

[crimson bone]

But there is still some empty space there or no?

[magic meadow]

HEY !!!! I have a problem with the Wooting 80HE sometimes. When I press Shift, the sticky key activates instantly. When I press a number like 5 once, it's like 10 fives appear at the same time. I have to unplug and plug the USB C back in again and everything works well. Has this happened to anyone else?

[buoyant solstice]

Disable sticky keys?

hahaha IM PACKING MY 60HEV2 AND SENDING IT BACK TO YOU how does that make you feel

its packed now

[buoyant solstice]

I am entirely whelmed. You're entitled to make use of your 30 day return period, if the products aren't to your liking.

[still ether]

also I didnt take good care of my wooting80he like you told in the package its got two broken leds how does that feel

[lime falcon]

[still ether]

what if my keycap order is more than 30 days ago AND I HATE IT can i get an exception from you and get refund?

[buoyant solstice]

It's an automatic system. If you need anything beyond that, you'll have to reach out to support via our ticket system.

I'd use the analog monitor by wooting

to check and also turn on debounce while ur at it to see if it helps

[night turret]

Probably not

[dusky oracle]

hallo

[wind tiger]

sanest person

[magic meadow]

I will try it thanks for the tip

[frail carbon]

got my wooting 80he, so much better than my k2 he, not even close. It's almost like the jump from mechanical/optical to any hall effect keyboard (that isn't wooting at least)

wooting live up to their reputation imo

[lofty void]

would you say going for the tenz edition is worth it when it comes to the switches that are used?

[lime aspen]

You could just get a normal 80he module and put tikkens in yourself

The only difference between tenz tikkens and the regular tikkens is color and spring swap

Up to you🤷

[lofty void]

i would like to go for a black plate either way, now im just wondering if its not just more expensive that way. but compared to the normal lekkers that come stock?

[lime aspen]

The lekkers that come stock are not tikkens

Where as tenz uses tikkens

[lofty void]

i know, this is why i ask, if the difference is noticable when it comes to wobble and stuff

[lime aspen]

Tikkens are better than normal lekkers

[lime aspen]

They sound better, cant speak on wobble idk how they differ

But buying the tenz model would save you from needing an aftermarket plate (for black plate)

[lofty void]

ye im thinking about it. thanks for the answear. how much lighter are the tikken tenz tho?

[cursive star]

Yo i want to clean my 80HE, and i saw a video that said to put the keycaps in soapy water for a while and let em sit, but some comments were talking about how this could remove the crap on the keycaps, are the basic keycaps for the 80HE suitable for soapy water, or should i use a different method to clean em

also am i even asking in the right channel lmao

[lime aspen]

Stock tikkens are 60g and the tenz are 45g

[lofty void]

also im sorry im bothering you so much, but on some pictures, the keycaps seem shine through, on some those dont

[lime aspen]

The tenz ones arent shine through iirc

Yeah they arent shine through

[red heart]

Soapy water is fine, just make sure it is not hot as it could cause the plastic to warp

The legends in the stock pbt keycaps are double shot, meaning they are a different plastic than the black outside

So they cannot be rubbed off with water or soap

[cursive star]

Alrighty then thanks bro i’ll go drown the keycaps then

[orchid mantle]

@lime aspen check dm if you can (:

[crimson bone]

Can somebody explain when to use stem spacers? The official guide says they are for switches of 3.5mm and lower, but people here are saying that i wont need them with gravastar ufo (3.5mm)

[jaunty jewel]

they are not shine through but i noticed that they are not fully opaque either

[lime aspen]

You only need them if you have wobble on your keys with stabilizers

Ive used 2 different 3.5mm switches and 3 different keycap sets and havent needed them yet

[crimson bone]

what thing makes this problem "invisible" in this case?

as i understand the empty space is still there or no?

[lime aspen]

Its mostly a problem with bad keycaps that have shitty stem tolerance

So they dont seat tightly on the stab stems

[crimson bone]

and thus they need support from the bottom to stay stable?

[lime aspen]

Yeah

You really dont need them unless you do have the issue

[crimson bone]

so gravastar ufos + stock pbts are fine for sure?

[lime aspen]

Most likely yeah

I never had issues with my stock wooting caps on jades or ti he

[slate lark]

wait and see if your keycaps wobble.
if they do buy stem spacers

just a matter of manufactoring tolerances which dont go your way

[worn ingot]

what does request inconvience do

[hardy hollow]

request invoice?

Gives you a receipt for the order

[worn ingot]

Alr

[solar haven]

what would give me a deeper sound the fr4 plate or the stock pc plate on the 80he?

[lime falcon]

stock

[midnight iron]

when you click 'request inconvenience' a wooting employee will sneak into your house and leave your fridge door slightly open

[hardy hollow]

[worn ingot]

I mean if he come with a free keyboard..

[hot stump]

im getting my wooting 80he soon, anything i should know

[vale cove]

Yall got any switch recommendations for this 80he module im purchasing soon, no price limits, not too worried about sound profiles either

[lime falcon]

#🪛│modding_faq message

[silver gust]

Anyone got recommended profiles for fps games? I noticed while trying to stick revives which requires holding down "E" that I keep accidentally triggering rapid trigger by lifting the key ever so slightly. I wonder if that's also affecting my movement among other things?

[hidden sigil]

Reporting back on this issue, a few months passed: it did not look like anything was loose or out of place when i opened my keyboard to look. i have replaced my usb cable and its connection point on the motherboard. anything else i can attempt on my part or is it time to start thinking about a replacement part?

[next rampart]

Set the release actuation point higher or just disable it for your revive key

[buoyant solstice]

Sounds like a question for #🔧│keyboard_modding

[crimson blaze]

theres any info about how many tenz tekovers left on store?

No

Just saw that I can disable Tachyon Brightness Limit so I can have 100% brightness with the Premium Cable Set 😄 lets go!

[weary elm]

Replacement wooting PCB came already installed in the case but. It's missing a big spacer that's making it impossible to get my switches put in

[nova nexus]

The case is installed as protection during shipping

[weary elm]

I see. No one mentioned that

[crimson bone]

how does that work? limitations with regular one?

[lime falcon]

You can do this with the included cable too

[crimson bone]

man im interested, what mods are you running?

with 80he

[lime falcon]

I don't use 80HE

[crimson bone]

what would you mod then

if you were to

[lime falcon]

plate, switches, keycaps

[crimson bone]

no stabs and foams?

[lime falcon]

no

[crimson bone]

what plate

[lime falcon]

I prefer stiffer plates, so FR4 or CF

[crimson bone]

is it true that overdoing foams can cause issues with key registering etc?

[lime falcon]

Some foams can cause issues

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/984799440072220692/1477020349869850816/IMG_0514.png?ex=69b06ce5&is=69af1b65&hm=09c18b6720c048cbd0eb103144ba5e6c2282c8a6c609016ff25e393e1c1b2c06&

[crimson bone]

if i were to order torontokeyboardman foams kit, do you know how to avoid it?

[lime falcon]

This for example. They always include this foam in mod kits, you don't want to use that, if you care about performance

[crimson bone]

its a guaranteed decrease by just putting it in?

[lime falcon]

It's guaranteed to increase deadzone, make the accuracy worse etc. Anything soft between the PCB and plate is bad

[scarlet frost]

if you include everything that give you in the kit it leaves almost no space in the case as well, people have reported boards bending, usually with the stiffer plates

[crimson bone]

what about something under pcb

[scarlet frost]

you need to have some room in the case for the board to flex, or you risk damaging the pcb

[crimson bone]

i saw people putting few pet films, custom foams, layers of tape. is that dangerous then?

[scarlet frost]

not at all, pet films are really thin, and the foam is fine as long as its under the board since it will flex, tape layers are also really thin. the modkit comes with foam, plate, pet film, switch foam, case foam, 2 layers of tape, gasket foam, and some other foam to add

the mod kit comes with so much to add that it leaves almost no room for the board to move, thats what can affect your performance and damage the board

[crimson bone]

im trying to custom 80he to "endgame" and then just chill and dont disassemble it, do you think those foam kits are a good idea then?

[crimson bone]

yeah i understand that you should pick like 2-3 things out of that

[crimson bone]

btw if no aftermarket stabs, would you tune the stock ones then? or usually not required

[lime falcon]

Most of the time just need to lube

[crimson bone]

is it possible without the complete teardown?

[lime falcon]

With the syringe, yes

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1186265045227802714/1448304623801729206/this.png?ex=69b01bca&is=69aeca4a&hm=7b61e1f9f288924d2dd0d0a76a1c10df6cecab8502efb083c952de833767cff7&

[scarlet frost]

they could be, just dont use everything they include as a lot of it just takes up space and doesn't really do much other than make the keyboard "feel' better. really you just need the case foam and whatever plate you want to use to change the sound. Most people I've seen mod the keyboard just do a case swap, use the foam from the original keyboard, add some tape, and lube the switches. Some maybe get aftermarket stabs but thats about it

[crimson bone]

what about switching stock plate to fr4? i see that its usually preferred to pc

[scarlet frost]

yeah thats fine, you don't need the whole kit for that tbh

just get a nice plate, maybe some thicker foam if you think the keyboard sounds hollow, and lube the switches and stabs. maybe add some masking tape to the bottom of the pcb and thats about all you need to do

[crimson bone]

do i understand that wires are under this white plate? i think their area also needs to be lubed, or no?

[scarlet frost]

most of the mods I've seen people do is just a nicer foam, some lubing, and some tape. Keyboard sounds great and then the people i've seen use a modkit have a very similar sound with just a lot more work, maybe like a 15% deeper sound or the change in plate changing the pitch of it

[crimson bone]

i see that for example pc plate is softer than fr4. is it really noticeable or you need to press hard for it etc?

[scarlet frost]

it doesn't really change how you press it, its more of how the pcb flexes when you press a key, a stiffer plate will have less of a flex when you press a key down

[crimson bone]

how would those plate compare to mainstream gaming keyboards? i dont see it mentioned there, probably they use other type of assembly?

for example what would be a plate equivalent of some logitech board

[scarlet frost]

usually some sort of aluminum or steel iirc

steel is more of a clacky sound while aluminum is more of a thock

[crimson bone]

what mods are you personally running on your 80he?

[upper garden]

the non existent module is a tuff mod

just close your eyes and tap on your desk

[scarlet frost]

metal will always be stiffer, louder, and more resonant
plastic is usually softer, quieter, and more flexible
composite plates like FR4 or CF are usually a middle ground between the two

[scarlet frost]

i haven't modded it yet, I'm waiting to order a metal case before I mod anything so I don't have to take it apart multiple times. I'm planning very basic mods, just a thicker case foam, some tape on the back of the pcb, and depending on if i have hella free time, lube the switches and stabs

also looking into some aftermarket stabilizers but not 100% on those yet

[left jetty]

Alright after a bunch of googling and based on the advice here I decided to go with the following
KBDfans GT-80 case https://kbdfans.com/products/gt-80-case?variant=44982909272203
Wooting 80HE Module
Lekker Tikken Medium Switches
Keykobo Poltergeist Key Set (base) https://unikeyboards.com/products/keykobo-poltergeist-keycap-set (yeah I went a lot above the budget I set but I went through at least 20 websites before I saw anything in stock that matches the case's color and looked decent IMO, the legend seems like it would light up well with RGBs though I haven't seen any pictures to prove that, I hope this setup will serve me well for a while)
These seem like they are compatible with each other and would look good with RGBs, did I miss any incompatibilities/issues between those?
Also are there any peripherals/tools I should buy? (anything from cables to lube, assume I am a complete noob and don't have anything besides an IFixit screwdriver kit)

[kindred nebula]

the keycaps arent shine through

if thats what u mean by the legends lighting up well with rgbs

[left jetty]

They aren't completely shine through but I think the legends will at least be lit under RGBs

[fervent roost]

I do not think the legends will be lit at all
at least it doesn't look like it

[left jetty]

The legends looked at least slightly luminescent (or high contrast enough) which meant that the lower layer of the key is in that color, thought that would mean that at least some of the backlight will shine through, slight as it may be, but yeah I guess it won't work through solid, colored plastic that way.
Still, these are legible enough in low light which is part of the reason I wanted RGBs so I think I will go with these either way.
Thanks for the help

[dense salmon]

Are there any other keys with springs of different weights like TenZ's WASD keys?
The Shift and Alt keys feel lighter compared to other keys, similar to WASD.
I'd like a map showing what spring weight (in grams) each key uses.

[fervent roost]

On the Tenz? They all have the same spring

[dense salmon]

It feels different to me.
Is it just my imagination?

[fervent roost]

Probably, also keep in mind bigger keys are heavier

[dense salmon]

The keys adjacent to WASD feel slightly lighter.

[fervent roost]

Afaik it's the same switch with the same spring. Guess it's a placebo

[hardy hollow]

Def all the same spring

[dense salmon]

Maybe it's just my imagination.
Thank you.

[lapis grove]

Does wooting 80he suffer from latency issues if I were to couple it with the PC via a KVM switch? I wanna use wooting for both gaming on my PC & on my work laptop.

[brisk ruin]

Latency shouldn’t be a problem. You might have to try around if power is an issue for you. And maybe depending on how the KVM handles switching the keyboard might not properly connect without replugging

[red heart]

Some kvms can add latency or cause issues as described above or have power delivery problems

Especially shitty cheap kvms

You could get 2 of the same aviator cable set and be the first person in the history of keyboards to actually make use of the intended feature of the aviator connector

[crimson bone]

I received my 80he today and it came with just one 6 degree foot

[red heart]

you shouldnt use them anyway unless you're a feet lover

[crimson bone]

I used 7 degree keyboard and planned to use 6

[red heart]

lower degree better ergonomics

[bright jewel]

double check the bags and case. If you're really missing one, then reach our to customer support and we get things sorted

[crimson bone]

Yeah i definitely double checked, i was surprised that there were only 3 feet when i saw the bag

[exotic pasture]

Guys lowk just copped

How long did it usually take for u guys to get urs

[crimson bone]

I ordered mine last Wednesday and received today (eu)

[exotic pasture]

I’m in Aus so ngl idk how long it’ll take

[novel escarp]

Like 2 weeks?

I got mine off aus mod shop

Think it's a bit more expensive tho

[exotic pasture]

Damnn I did not wanna wait that long ngl

Nothin I can do now

[novel escarp]

2 week is just a estimate tho

Since they ship from the us

[crimson bone]

You can start searching the mods you want (but then you might end up buying tons of plastic things off of aliexpress ngl)

[novel escarp]

And past experience with that in DHL is they usually take like one and a half to 2 week

I don't know if they have like a Warehouse in asia

[exotic pasture]

Never even thought abt mods ngl

[novel escarp]

So if they do ship from asia it's a bit faster

[crimson bone]

But i guarantee you that if you google it once you will he hooked

Just like me, i already spent almost another keyboard worth on mods (last 7 days)

[exotic pasture]

lol probably it was my bday recently only reason I got it and like I have more money maybe for mods

[crimson bone]

To be fair i received zinc prebuild today and the stock one is absolutely usable

And most people dont need to change anything

Its more of a hobby at this point

[buoyant solstice]

Seems to be some confusion here. We ship from the EU except for US customers (their have their own warehouse) and to some east Asian countries, depending on what was ordered (and if the customer specifically selected to ship from HK)

[lucid heath]

mine shipped from NL which is funny because that's 16000km away and it still arrived 6 days earlier than anticipated.

[buoyant solstice]

Airplanes do be like that, if there's room.

[nova nexus]

You mean if there's vroom

[buoyant solstice]

[lucid heath]

I figured there would be layover in china or germany lol.

[buoyant solstice]

Of course if it's during a peak season of packages, or if there's an armed conflict in the middle east, that might cause some trouble.

[lucid heath]

very lucky in that case. How oil needed for my case, i got the zinc case

lmao

[crimson bone]

May i ask what usually happens if a package is missing some small thing? For example im missing one 6 degree foot and its exactly the one i prefer using. Shipping 1 keyboard foot is a good but i would say funny solution at the same time

(I contacted support but just asking)

[buoyant solstice]

We'd ship a custom order with the missing bits.

[crimson bone]

The shipping in this case is probably like 50x the missing part cost

[bright jewel]

you wouldnt need to pay for it

youre missing an item, thats not your fault

[crimson bone]

Basically im seeing why i paid for wooting from the first day

Hi everyone, I'm having an issue with my Wooting 80HE. It doesn't allow me to enter the BIOS, and even if I manage to get in (using another method), none of the keys work once I'm inside.
I have already tried disabling NKRO mode, but the issue persists. Has anyone else experienced this? Is there a fix, or do I need to keep a separate cheap plug-and-play keyboard just for BIOS access? Thanks.

this one zinc white / zinc raw?

am i being stupid or how does one remove a global effect

[serene mist]

i think about upgrade my tenz to zinc raw, but i need reference first

[lilac ibex]

TenZ in GT-80

[slate lark]

i think a gt-80 black case + red badges would look good for the tenz

[lilac ibex]

I was going to go that route, but the red badges were out of stock. So I went with the red case.

[slate lark]

rip,
they seem to be in stock now tho

[lilac ibex]

Not going to buy another case for the keyboard. It's literally a desk "art" piece currently. I stick to using my other heavily modded 80HE or my 60 v2.

you click where it says global effects on your screenshot and then delete it

[hollow harbor]

W i got it in black i should of got it in that

[oblique pilot]

How different is the Tenz sound profile with the zinc case as compared to the plastic case?

[buoyant solstice]

Identical? The TenZ case is plastic as well.

[oblique pilot]

I meant, zinc to tenz plastic case 🙃

[finite lantern]

hmm sounds a bit louder and clacky compared to plastic i think

[novel escarp]

is just that the tenz wooting have a set of new feet

and fr4 plate and thats about it

[lilac ibex]

Lighter force switches too

[oblique pilot]

Yeah, I was curious how the FR plate impacts the zinc case I guess.

[lilac ibex]

Makes it louder and slightly brighter.

[nocturne creek]

does anyone know if the black zinc alloy v2 out for the 80he yet?

[proven hearth]

only for the people who opted to get the black v2 replacement way back

[hoary quiver]

Somethings wrong with my page down key 🙁

[fervent roost]

What's wrong with the key?

[hoary quiver]

i mean led

instead blue its more of a purple and instead yellow as you can see its more of an orange

[woven hill]

Use the wootility

[wheat flower]

how many layers of tape mod are yall doing when modding

[woven hill]

0

[fervent roost]

Might be a faulty led, you could reach out customer support

[wheat flower]

how come

[woven hill]

Idk

I just don’t use it

[hoary quiver]

yep i did that already and hopefully my problem will be solved fast

[wheat flower]

fair✌️

[woven hill]

Like my mouse guys?

[wheat flower]

we agree that there should be no issue tape modding the 80he right?
overheating is only a thing if the pcb has a battery ye?

[wheat flower]

🙏 was thinking going on the low end myself.
ty

[proven hearth]

set the rgb values to 0 on all then you can test each color led
set red to 255, turn if off if it works
set green to 255, turn it off if it works
set blue to 255

[wheat flower]

what the

[woven hill]

270 grams

[fervent roost]

Oh right, I forgot to mention the obvious

[proven hearth]

look like green might be out

[hoary quiver]

Green still with us but it’s sightly different than it’s brothers

[proven hearth]

you can try contacting support and see what they say

since 80hes have 2 year led warranties

[celest glade]

I think you may be colorblind here

[woven hill]

Should I get the v2 or 80he

[hoary quiver]

2/10 ragebait

[fervent roost]

I agree with lumenistic.. on the other picture with keycaps on you can't really tell a difference, tho here one is obviously more green

[fervent roost]

Do you prefer 80% or 60%?
That's the most important question and only you can answer it

[hoary quiver]

yeah i had to change color so he could spot the difference. at 0/255/0 its not that obvious

[fervent roost]

On what color was this picture taken on?

[hoary quiver]

something like 170(or slightly more)/255/0

[limber mantle]

im new to this whole brand of keyboard i wanna edit the colours of the wave rainbow effect but idk how is this possible ?

[nova nexus]

Not currently possible, but there are a few different wave color presets to choose from.
If you have a very specific desire, you could use a program like SignalRGB or Artemis

[limber mantle]

not currently does this mean they are thinking about it ?

[nova nexus]

Expanding RGB options is on the table, but I don't have any timeframe and I don't know what the specifics are

[spice mesa]

hey, I just received my TenZ 80HE. I have a question: is it normal to see the rgb light through the engraved letters? I thought the keycaps were dyesub, so expected light coming out only from the little spaces between the caps. but now that I dimmed my room lights I can see the letters shine.

[buoyant solstice]

Dyesub doesn't mean light can't glow through passively. And that's what you're seeing.

[spice mesa]

I thought the engravings on the TenZ keycaps were completely sealed. That's a pleasant surprise for me: I don't like rgb light during the day, but I appreciate a muted lightning during the night. The TenZ theme is perfect for my black/orange themed desk!

[upper garden]

what percentage is your rgb brightness at ?

[spice mesa]

For the picture I think it was at 100% or around that, but for daily use anything above 70-75% is too much for me... because the black plate+caps you need to pump the brightness up. Anyway brightness can be misleading just looking at a picture, it depends on camera exposition. Don't expect the letter engravings to shine like this during the day.
P.S.: I took a photo at 70% brightness and it looks exactly the same, I think due to interpolations in the camera software. My only intent was to demonstrate that the dysub TenZ keys can let RGB light through (passively, Mansen said), but it's only noticeable in low-light environments. To have an idea of how subtle it is, if you have a bright website open on your monitor, you can't see the rgb letter shine anymore

[crystal plume]

Is that rhe Artisan zero?

[spice mesa]

the one in the picture is the daidai raiden, but I alternate this with the red otsuv2 (that also matches the theme)

[hasty radish]

who tf uses pg dn

[buoyant solstice]

People who scroll long documents or play old games.

Do you use Home or End more often?

[upbeat berry]

middle mouse click and/or page up/down

home and end dont scroll

[humble cargo]

but it takes you to the top or bottom of the page

[upbeat berry]

well thats not scrolling really. its just jumping to the start or end of the document (or line in an editor)

[hardy hollow]

I replaced ins and del with home and end. Never once have used those

[slate lark]

ins is understand as afaik most people only use it in linux, but delete?

[hardy hollow]

Never in my life have I touched that key

Lol

[humble cargo]

how do people even use keyboards these days

[livid escarp]

POCHITA

[exotic veldt]

yes

[livid escarp]

very epic

[exotic veldt]

thanks

resin printers are fire

[exotic veldt]

Wanna see another one

[torpid jasper]

make an army, one for every key

[viscid python]

typeplus stabs are damn near silent for how i have them

[exotic veldt]

lol

[viscid python]

I finally have a porple keeb!
So far right now all i have done to it is the following;

GT-80 Case
TypePlus Stabs - buttery smooth and hardly to no rattle
UFO Switches (on 10 of the keys... for the remainder, hopefully tomorrow and all the keys will have them)
POM plate from Toronto Keyboardman
I have left the stock white gasket that the keyboard came with
I have left the original case foam at the bottom of the case
Drop Cyber MT3 keycap base and novelty set

I have the foam kit from Toronto Keyboardman and a carbon fiber plate to try if I want to but honestly.... right now.... do I need it???? no I love the sound of this keyboard a lot the way it is right now without the extra foam.

[viscid python]

the side badge is the gray one btw for those who are asking

[solar haven]

could we get a sound test?

[viscid python]

maybe when I get the remaining UFO keys in

esc, wasd, space, arrow keys are the only things I have ufo switches on at this moment

[solar haven]

oh okay what kind of lube did you use for the stabs? I wanna get some

[viscid python]

MK Krytox 205g0 Lube 5ml from mechanicalkeyboards

stuff I had from a year ago I do have dialectic grease but I was told by wizard that it isnt necessary I will say tho the backspace is now rattling slightly so I will fix that

but it isnt an annoying rattle so I will take it

[solar haven]

I tried lubing the stock stabs and mine don't sound too bad but still not how I like it

[viscid python]

you will get the actual sound that it will sound like after having initially lubed it with some use

but I am just thinking to myself do I really wanna take apart the keyboard again, just to remove that one stab and relube it.... not entirely on the top of my to do list at this moment

I did also add a foam piece on the space bar because MT3 keycaps on spacebars do be a bit hollow sounding which is just some basic ass foam kit for space bars off of amazon

[solar haven]

yeah its a pain to take it all apart just for one stab lol, looks good tho!

[viscid python]

I am lazy and lubing the stabs and figuring out how to put them together first took me 10-15 mins and I am like ok... we are gonna lube it up realllll nice and fuck it let it sit for a week or so and I will consider relubing then xD

I was dumb and took me a little after having built to realize what went wrong with the light diffuser.

KBDFans video of the assmebly of the GT-80 case didnt go over this necessarily.

For the light diffusers you either completely remove the stock one and use the "glowing" one, OR you remove the stock one and replace the diffuser entirely with the other one for the individual LEDs to be shown.

either way stock diffuser is removed

[solar haven]

yeah i like no diffuser it looks more natural, do you get any ping with the aluminum case?

I just ordered a black gt80 for mine

[viscid python]

Wizard has a audio clip of this somewhere the ping from what I understood in their video was if forced sure otherwise no general use no issues

If your talking about the guy who made the video that sold me on the carpios (i have carpal tunnel and do paperwork all day so I thought not a bad idea...) he found it and he viewed it as a fault when in reality its not. You have to force it to do it. Or flick the top case from what I understand.

Which idk who tf is gonna flick a metal object for the hell of it.

[solar haven]

yeah thats the video i saw and true lol

[viscid python]

This

[torpid jasper]

weird i dont have that pinging on mine

[viscid python]

I have yet to try it but

[viscid python]

Flicked it hard enough?

[viscid python]

I did buy a sheet of poron foam i will eventually cut to size and modify to fill the entire base layer of the case. I may also use more of the foam kit from Toronto keyboardman but to be honest with you.... it isn't needed. The tape mod film the kit comes with as well honestly probably not needed.

I didnt even try Wootings stock plate in this case because to me a lot of the plates sound similar. I do however prefer my plate to be black because aesthetically i prefer it. White shows LEDs more but for purple....

[viscid python]

Brother don't go breaking a nail now

[torpid jasper]

im a mechanic my hands are basically hammers at this point 😂

[viscid python]

I did find pom to bring slightly more thock?

[viscid python]

wanna fix a ecoshit equinox?

PCV valve froze seal took a shit now engines fucked sooooo weeeeeee

[torpid jasper]

we dont have chevvys over here so ive never worked on one

[viscid python]

Your blessed xD

[viscid python]

I personally have flicked around my case, not a issue on mine. Could be a earlier manufactuering defect that they had fixed over time

[torpid jasper]

they may not have any foam padding in the case, let me remove the foam in mine

[viscid python]

well

they had sworn up and down on using foam fill more or less

because it is indeed cheaper but however to remove most resonance in cases you would want foam

[torpid jasper]

there is more of a ring to it but not as bad as they had it

[viscid python]

The kind of stuff you'd find at a build a bear workshop lmao

Which I mean hey it works but high density is imo better

[torpid jasper]

the only foam i use in my 80he is what came with the stock case

[exotic veldt]

asmr

[viscid python]

Yeah that's what I'm with rn i wanted to give the stock a go with pom plate then I'll make more changes later

I am upset tho I want gmk keycaps but futurefunk was gone and I had the chances to buy them a year ago...

So drop set I have rn works for now.... ;-;

[torpid jasper]

if you do just go careful with them

[viscid python]

?

With drops set or gmk? XD

[torpid jasper]

#🌟│wooting80he message

gmk

[viscid python]

How many times did you remove them?

[torpid jasper]

just to swap them over from lekker v2s to tikkens

only time ive removed em

[viscid python]

ABS is a softer plastic compared to PBT

That might just be a manufacturing defect

Drop is also ABS

ABS softer, easier formed, more prone to issues like that in the image, eventually shines from fingerprint oil

PBT harder, more likely to defect in forming process especially spacebars, better hold up long run, no shine

[jaunty jewel]

unfortunately high quality PBT still shines in a day after use for me, clean hands, no food

it is more durable than ABS tho

[viscid python]

that is unfortunate. That shouldnt be the case ever.

[proven hearth]

my abs set havent showed any signs of shining yet

[jaunty jewel]

my fingers get extra oily

it runs in the family

[proven hearth]

keykobo #1

[exotic veldt]

This bad boy just got done

[jaunty jewel]

ive noticed other people who use their keyboards that claim this, same keycaps, tend to have dry hands by nature

[proven hearth]

the edge of my spacebar on my pbt set started to shine but thats not a big issue for me

was using pbtfan crosshairs for a year before i got 60he v2

[jaunty jewel]

part of me wishes i had dry hands

[proven hearth]

i consider my hands to be pretty oily too

touching anyrhing leaves a fingerprint

[fervent roost]

Same here

[jaunty jewel]

you have oily hands too?

[fervent roost]

Yea it's pretty bad

[jaunty jewel]

someone told me to not feel too bad about it since it acts as a natural moisturiser, so our hands may look better as we age

i guess I will see in 20-30 years lol

[fervent roost]

Lmao

[atomic cradle]

For those who have installed gravastar UFOs, did you need long pole stabilizers?

[viscid python]

No

[misty tree]

Hello Wooting Team, I'm making a custom coiled cable for my 80he and I need some information if possible. What type of Type C and specifications are needed for it to support 8K pollin rate, (My first try was a fail as it only worked with 1k polling rate)
If this isnt the correct place please redirect me where to ask. Thanks.

[buoyant solstice]

Uh... USB 2.0

That's all you need for 8khz polling. Beyond that it's just a question of good soldering, quality wiring and not making a super long cable.

[misty tree]

Made a 1.5m with 17cm coiled part, thick wires. Type C on both end.

[buoyant solstice]

And what happens when you enable 8khz polling in Wootility?

[misty tree]

USB Device malfunctioning popup on windows, if I change it while its plugged in. Same if it 8k beforehand

Works on 8k ducky board but that one probably needs less power. Power delivery should be 5V2A or more?

Which kind of gauge is it needed? 22 24 26 28?

[dull raft]

ihaswooting

[buoyant solstice]

[wind tiger]

if you assume it is power maybe try turning off the LEDs on the wooting to get it to be a bit lower at least

[misty tree]

Tried with turned off LEDs and Bar, only 8k without tachyon, still nothing doesnt even recongize it if its set to 8k, need to use the stock cable to reset it to 1k to continue

[hushed sinew]

The signaling on USB high speed is a lot more sensitive to voltage drops

[bold shale]

Just ordered a Kbdfans GT-80 case for my TenZ edition, as well as some HMX Crystal switches. Can’t wait. Probably getting here on Monday.

[wispy trellis]

A few weeks ago I said that people posting Wooting metal keyboards on sub-€100 desks were prioritizing the wrong things.

I took that personally. I upgraded my workspace.

Now everything is premium and finally fits together.

[exotic veldt]

W setup

[bold shale]

Fractal North (XL)! I have the same. Love it.

[trim hamlet]

does anyone have an idea why my gt80 hasnt come yet after 3 weeks?

[lime falcon]

ask kbdfans?

[trim hamlet]

okie

[upper garden]

join their discord

and talk to one of their cs reps

[trim hamlet]

casn you send me the link

[upper garden]

idk if i can since it might be considered promotion

just google kbfans discord server

[trim hamlet]

ok

[fervent roost]

at least you can't send it into text channels here afaik cuz automod will get ya ass for it

[upper garden]

the clankers are watching us

[fervent roost]

why side eyeing me?

[upper garden]

meant to put shocked

[fervent roost]

[upper garden]

[wispy trellis]

Yeah and it fitts well with the wodden desk

[formal field]

they dont do weekend shipping right

[upper garden]

wooting members dont work on the weekends

[formal field]

i mean like just shipping not making the keyboards

[fervent roost]

Yea but that depends on the warehouses.. and they are 3rd party warehouses

[formal field]

ok thx

[jade widget]

US warehouse does, EU does not usually

[gritty copper]

yo I've got a question. I'm thinking of buying wooting 80HE. I otp ryze in league and I can feel that my keyboard does not press the buttons consistently at times, especially late game where you spam them hard. (my current keyboard doesn't have any special effect like rapid trigger or HE) Is it gonna make a big difference?

[gusty quartz]

just got my wooting 80he today. any tips??

[upper garden]

yeah enjoy it

[fervent roost]

I would think so
You can spam keys faster

[viscid python]

I finally have all ufo switches

it is sooooo nice

[viscid python]

Mansen when fix so I can have Ihaswootign from purchasing somewhere else? D:

[buoyant solstice]

I'm not aware of any such project.

[viscid python]

Depends what it is you want to do.

Did you buy the plastic case vs?
Did you buy the zinc alloy vs?

Do you want to modify it? (Different switches, foam, kbdfans case options, so on)

[viscid python]

I do not remember who but I think one of the other wooting staff said there might be a integration to have those who bought their wooting keeb from somewhere else

could've been entirely mistaken by it

[buoyant solstice]

Probably Tony. But I have no knowledge of this, so couldn't tell you when if ever 🙂

The problem is that it would either have to be a manual confirmation system - which would eat up CS man hours. Or we'd be able to tap into reseller systems - and there's a lot.

So uh... not sure what the approach is there.

[viscid python]

whichever staff that is also a satisfactory nerd thats all I can say about it lmao

and "tapping" into a resellers system a lot of resellers i can see baring that from the get go due to possible security concerns

but.... eitherway.... thanks for making the best keeb yo 😄

[buoyant solstice]

Satisfactory huh?

[viscid python]

yas 😄

[buoyant solstice]

[viscid python]

look listen.... sh

[buoyant solstice]

[viscid python]

satisfactory is what got me into dedicated servers and learning linux xD and if/when I do play satisfactory... it is for like... 20-32hrs at a time sooo yeah this is very true

oh

mr akbar I think is the one that said maybe

[nova nexus]

There's a concept of a plan to consider the possibility of thinking about developing such a thing

[viscid python]

Mr Akbar... I must see factory

[buoyant solstice]

Ah yes - Something something synergistic developing strategies

[nova nexus]

I haven't made much progress on my factory in the last month or so

Last big project that was completed was my cystal oscillator factory

[viscid python]

D: but... how are you bypassing Ficsits break policy?

something that I find insanely funny is that you can make a 80 coal gen power plant that runs entirely off of itself and you do not need biomass burners now

[nova nexus]

Coal?? My factory is nuclear powered

Do you think I'm German or something?

[viscid python]

I have yet get to nuclear power ever in any of my games xD

[nova nexus]

[viscid python]

ive only played with germans...

but the geothermal power gen and one of the larger open water areas you can use that to power the entire coal gen pretty coooooool 😄 you do need to block them off in groups of 20 however

[buoyant solstice]

I still have so many windmills in my old world. Cause I refuse to engage with plant burners. I like my jungle lush 😄

I also cba to reinstall the Epic launcher to play, so I'll probably wait for a deep Steam sale.

[viscid python]

iirc when I bought it off of steam it was 20$

[crimson bone]

Would you guys say that tapemod sounds better than stock 80he?

[buoyant solstice]

80HE already comes with one.

[wispy trellis]

still frog tape changes the sound quite strongly - i would not say in a good or bad way but its still a customisation there

[buoyant solstice]

Sure. I could have expanded on my answer. 80HE already comes with a tape mod, so the difference might be less than you think

[wispy trellis]

i would say its quite the difrence and i liked the original more so theres that

someone might still like it more with frogtape haha ..

[snow mica]

I am asking you because I am running out of options, the return policy is a bit vague when it comes to refurbished units, are they still eligible for the regular 30 day replacement?

[buoyant solstice]

Yes. 🙂

[snow mica]

sorry i meant return not replacement

[buoyant solstice]

Again, yes 🙂

From the Outlet store.

[snow mica]

Okay understood

ngl I am just not feeling this keeb, I think the switches are to blame they are just extremely fatiguing for my fingertips and they hurt after a bit of use

sure this issue could be fixed by buying another set of switches but after spending almost 200€ on a keeb I do not want to spend another 100€ just for it to feel right

[humble cargo]

chances are pretty high you'll end up spending the same or more on a classic switch custom kb

unless you'd be satisfied enough with one of the bigger brand options

[snow mica]

I disagreee wholeheartedly, I have an Ak820 Pro as my laptop keeb, all I would need to do here for example would be putting in tactile/clicky switches and I would be fine, but for some reason the linear typing experience is not as fatiguing OOTB on that one to begin with

I am not an enthusiast at all, if you are dead set on wanting to use ISO layouts, 90% of the custom keeb hobby is already closed off to you by default
