are there any HE PCBs that have a layout that supports stepped caps lock

spiral canyon
#

Keyboard must have switch a bit to the right to support stepped caps lock, I don't think Wooting is compatible

stray tiger
#

Its not compatible with step caps

devout torrent
#

time to get big brain

#

lets make step caps that are just way taller on one part

#

instead of recessed on one part

#

sounds terrible but also hilarious

spiral canyon
#

How can you tell if it really is terrible if you haven't tried it? HYPERS

#

I have stepped caps in my keycap set that fit

#

I can't see that it would matter as theyre magnets. But does lube on the magnets underneath the switches hurt?

Which site sells best Quality keycaps?

lunar sand
#

depends on your budget just like everything else 😄

shell crown
#

Thockfatehr give name of caps

urban chasm
#

anyone know any switches for the wooting that actually thock asf

shell crown
#

Raptors/jades

urban chasm
#

ok

#

Pls :(

harsh dove
#

Raptors are not thocky

#

Jades are closer to thock but not really

#

They’re unique

#

Raptors are def more clack

This legit?

spiral canyon
harsh dove
#

Also keep in mind, the board will always assume you have Lekkers installed. It doesn’t care if you put raptors or jades in or whatever. It assumes they are Lekkers.

harsh dove
# polar girder Does that matter?

It matters in the sense of having switches with different actuation points and just being mindful of the fact that the wooting PCB will always assume lekkers are installed.

#

So it will assume lekker specs and actuations

spiral canyon
#

Everything you need to know is in Simon's comment in the reddit post
Basically you have to account Jades have different travel, so 4.0mm in Wootility equals 3.5mm in switch

white solar
#

But 0.1 is 0.1, everything up to 3.5mm works fine, right?

loud zephyr
earnest tartan
#

is the plate that wooting sells for the HE worth it like feel and sound wise, i have a 40 dollar gift card to wooting and idk what to get with it

quiet bay
fluid ravine
#

change the mount to something like gasket or gummy mount with a nice case foam then its much softer id say

earnest tartan
#

any foam u suggest ive modded both mine and my girfriends and ive been using mekanist foam and shew still has the stock

#

also jade switches? i cant afford them rn but do they affect preformance

fluid ravine
#

try polyfill

#

real nice

harsh dove
#

From Wooting_Simon

#

Same starting point as Lekkers pretty much

#

Bottom out is 3.5mm instead of 4mm cause of closed bottom

#

So in the firmware if you want 3.5mm then set your actuation to 4mm

#

Everything else works as usual

white solar
#

Man, you are a legend. Helped me out to choose the switches yesterday and now helping me with the firmware stuff. Thank you

harsh dove
#

No problem

white solar
#

One more thing, did you change the stabilisers?

harsh dove
#

If in regards to using Long Pole, no

still sun
#

what’s some quick things I can mod to make my wooting 60he sound better?

Also is there any high quality key caps that have come out recently?

Yh I’ve seen that, I’m thinking smaller tho tbh, for some reason there’s one on Amazon that’s 4 keys n it’s 60 ish then another one almost exact same but it’s like 200, idk why

Typically happens on the edges on the spacebar if you do have issues, like if you press one side down for example and the other side pops up off the stab stem.

You know what the best thing is about HE switches? You dont have to worry about the damn pins bending.

It's just that a friend of mine has some Long Pole TX-AP's that he doesn't really need. So I thought that I might install them

Oh, yeah. If I will decide to go for something with a 4.0mm travel distance I will need to go back to the stock ones. Whatever, I'll give those Long Poles a try

very minor but they offered to replace it

Once you try to fix it, it's likely they won't send any replacement out to you since it's been messed with. Just a heads up

damn worst angle to get a scratch, I think the backend may have been ok, but at least you're getting a replacement

Haha for sure, I'm in the same boat as you waiting on my module. Says it will be here around Feb 01-09

#

But I did order the Alumaze60, I think it pushed out the order a bit

thorny isle
#

oo it’ll be worth the wait tho for sure

#

i think mines coming 17-24th of jan

#

mine got reduced by a couple days when it was ready to pack so it might reduce for u eventually

static tendon
#

For sure, what were your initial impressions on the Tofu? Did it feel like good quality? I might order a Tofu or the new Holy60 case down the line as well to test out and just sell whichever one I didn't like as much

loud zephyr
#

Go wild and get the Holy60 - shit looks crazy

#

Probably sounds like ass

static tendon
#

Yeah who knows. I'll decide on it once I see some more reviews on it. I really want a hefty case like the Tofu or salvation case but I do like how unique the holy60 is. Very cool design

#

If the salvation case goes on sale that may be my final choice

IDK if its the bounce of the wooting PC plate or the jades are odd

also IDK if the jades do 0.1mm

they feel like not as sensitive

# fierce void or is that the PC plate

Probably the pc plate, but springs are lighter then the l60s so could be you’re not used to that, the springs also are a lot better tensioned imo

fierce void
gleaming crane
#

I swapped the springs when I first got them and they felt noticeably different with the l60s, the stock jade springs feel more round if that makes sense

fierce void
#

I’ve never understood the term round with switch’s

#

But they don’t feel light

#

I have some 55g bottom out Mx switches that feel much lighter than these

gleaming crane
#

Could be tensioning or the shorter bottom out🤷‍♂️

#

Springs are a lot snappier making them feel bouncy

quick gulch
#

Yea the bottom out is a bit whack but I guess it’s to be expected

fierce void
#

What’s the bottom out in grams for the Jade?

#

Yeah they are weird but I guess not too weird I have a keyboard with gateron yellow box inks which is also 3.5mm bottom out

gleaming crane
#

Bottoming out on the jades is what makes them top tier😭

marsh saffron

i thought jades are like 30-35g

Does it work the same with the L45 and the L60 stems ?

(Only saw L60 stems for this mod)

The original mod used l45 stems

Basically you get the new PCB (which supports screw-in stabs) but the original steel plate and plate mount stabs.

harsh dove
#

Now I feel like I’m confused lol

quick gulch
#

very confusing

stray tiger
#

Im guessing they stopped producing the old PCB's and now only have new ones, so they upgraded the 60HE prebuilt to use the new PCB

so does or does it not come with screw ins?

that's what they said I think

The key word here is "module"

the batch update is just saying normal 60he is going to have the same pcb as 60he+ module

Correct

stray tiger

I loving refer to it as the 60HE OG and the new 60HE

harsh dove
#

lol right, I figure putting a “+” after , people would know

and then think there’s like a new and better version with more power

agile grove
#

the actual OG wooting is the AVR model

which technically is worse and technically less powerful

mann it either be the 60he or 60he+

either + or no +

I think gummy mount is cooler and easier to do 😎

normal schooner
#

have you watched the stream today?

quiet bay
#

like a part of it

#

saw the zinc alloy case :v

sudden heart
#

I tried both gummy and burger,

halcyon obsidian
#

so burger mount or gummy mount are both great, but with the wooting all they are really doing is friction mounting because the pcb doesn't have any spots to make it gasket mounted, so it doesn't add flex like gummy mount was created to do, BUT what it does do is make the sound a little more consistant because try mounting can lead to "Dead spots" or spots with inconsistent sounds and it can add a little bit of "bounce" not flex

sudden heart
#

gummy is more effective if you are looking for thock

sharp yew
#

yeah plus not having to screw anything in

timid nebula
#

what is gummy mount ?

sharp yew
#

its where you take this rubber o ring and wrap it around the edges of the pcb and slide it into the case

tape?

that's the bottom foam yeah? should be fine

untold wigeon
#

nah a bendy type of plastic

#

where does it go?

untold wigeon
#

where the foam goes

#

under it

sudden heart
#

should be fine as long as it is not extremely flammable

agile grove

doubt it would make the board not work

but I dont know what that would do for sound

pcb back film.

#

that

#

no clue what it is tbh

sudden heart
#

might cause electrostatic thou

#

considering the material

agile grove
#

true

#

plastic can be risky

sudden heart
#

really weird material for under pcb imo

agile grove
#

yea

#

ill rec a video with it

#

so u can see

sudden heart
#

hope it won't electrocute your pcb

#

especially considering the season now if you live in northern hemisphere

untold wigeon
#

No clue of the materiel I go straight to plastic for assumption

sudden heart
#

that looks like a tons of electrostatic

#

better not put that under the pcb

Ye I won’t

What other mods can I do besides foam and tape that are easy and don’t take hours

Probably just a clear silicon with adhesive

I’ve used something similar before

Epomaker says its GH60 compatible, which makes it highly likely to be 60HE compatible - https://epomaker.com/products/gh60-case

Will upgrade once I can convince my wife and own mind that 180$ for a set is justified

that's good that it seems possible, I will probably give it a go and worse-case scenario buy a seperate case. Just wanting to save a little money seeing as I already have a case in the right form factor

thanks for the help 😀

It’s a film to protect your keyboard’s PCBA from shorting on the case. This comes with most metal cases/keyboards. I would recommend using it if you don’t use anything else between the PCBA and case like foam for example.

# harsh dove zFrontier is legit

Okay thanks, just wondering how your experience was ordering from there? I’ve read multiple counts of orders being lost in shipping and never being actually shipped and just saying that it’s shipped. This is mainly western based customers though, because the eastern customers just dealt with slower shipping

harsh dove
#

I personally didn’t experience any issues

#

Got my keycaps in like 5 days

#

I’ll check invoice

stray tiger
#

zFrontier has always been good to me as well

#

I’ve had this question for a while and couldn’t find the answer; why are all stabilizers railless? With railless I mean none have a rail like switches do. They could benefit greatly from that right?

#

Staebies has “rails” sure but not like switches do.

harsh dove
#

Well there’s nothing for the rail to align with unless they change the housing

tawdry tree
harsh dove
#

Gotcha, yeah kinda figured you’d mean that too but idk if that “stopping point” on the return would create any issues with keycaps or switches

#

Cause as they are, stab stems move freely up and down

tawdry tree
#

Staebies are as tight as can be and afaik there are no issues with those. I don’t see why a new stab design with rail couldn’t work honestly.

harsh dove
#

Yeah I’m not saying it couldn’t work, just curious if it would cause any issues

#

Would be nice if they made plate mount staebies

tall rain
#

Do the l60 switches come prelubed? And if they do should I hand lube them to get the springs and everything

quiet bay
#

huge difference but very time consuming

tawdry tree
#

Even if they were Staebies

#

im excited for my tx screw ins to arrive tmrw

tawdry tree
harsh dove
#

Nah I meant Plate mounted

tawdry tree
harsh dove
#

But yeah I mean obvs screw-in/clip-in is superior to Plate Mount

#

Yeah TX AP are about as good as it gets with plate mount

#

Which I find to be pretty good on my board

tawdry tree
#

Staebies for sub 4U keys and TX for 4U+ keys is the way

#

Best of both worlds.

harsh dove
#

IMO yeah

#

They have the tightest tolerances I’ve seen/experienced

tawdry tree
#

You made them tighter?

harsh dove
#

Aside from staebies ofc

tawdry tree
#

With tape or something.

harsh dove
#

Nah the tx ap has a thicker stem and housing

#

Compared to regular stabs

tawdry tree
harsh dove
#

Oh

tawdry tree
#

Not wiggly

harsh dove
#

They’re pretty tight on the plate too tbh

#

I’ll make a video

tawdry tree
#

That’s the main problem with plate mounts

harsh dove
#

Yeah that’s why people do bandaid mod

tawdry tree
#

Never could get em as tight

harsh dove
#

But the tx ap doesn’t need it

tawdry tree
#

Yeah

neon copper
#

currently applying switch tape mod on some jades but it's creating a weird tactile bump feeling resistance at the top

any fix for it or am I just applying it wrong, been messing with it for an hour tryna re apply it n try diff stuff to no avail

alrdY applied a solid bit of lube tryna fix it a few times don't rly want to apply more icl

devout torrent
#

Doesn’t seem necessary on the jades

#

But if you lube the tape and try to press it flat it would be better

neon copper
#

yhyh using some micropore tape for it

#

it defo isnt necessary but trying it regardless

harsh dove
#

Got the new Hayate Kou Pad

neon copper
#

ill try pressing it even flatter ig

harsh dove
#

Yeah it might not be very compatible with Jades with how tight they are stock

neon copper
#

yhh myb i did see someone here post a video of them using taped jades n saying it's g though

#

more experimentation needed ig

devout torrent
#

Try lightly lubing inside tape

fluid ravine
#

usually when you get this problem with the lekkers, it means you didnt place the tape flaat enough for you just made the stem lean more on one said than the other. but in this case, jades are just tight in both pieces so thats why it causes all this problem

harsh dove

I've had great luck with plate mount stabs and I love how easy they are to remove and relube. Especially on solder boards.

no wobble

Yeah mine are very tight too

Basically was shaking my desk in that video lol

You already have a plate with the module

ok

thank you!

is the redux good for gaming? i noticed there is a 7 degree angle

halcyon obsidian

still musk

thanks

they are purely for weight, aesthetic, and sound

the angle could be steep for some people and if it is use a wrist rest, but I don't see it really being an issue for most

loose as shit

but that was a year ago

but ever since then i havent had that problem with plate mount

#

I disagree. I've built 12+ boards with plate mount stabs and I've had only 1 that had a single wobble mount.

#

Fixed with a little tape

tawdry tree
#

Mixed experience but overall plate mounts are worse compared to screw ins or clip ins.

fluid ravine
#

inconvenience or whatever when comparing them but yeah in terms of like mounting or whatever yeah i agree screw ins and clips in are better

¯_(ツ)_/¯

not that if I know if that affects the sounf

my stock stab was inconsistent bc i had waarp wire and i clipped my stab which i wasnt suppose to

so the stem wasnt hitting the pcb

Im using a wooting 60he in a Tofu 60 redux with the OG switch foam, KBDfans switch film, and KBDFans FR4 Plate. I am also using the upgraded L45 switches. Rapid trigger is unusable at 0.15 up to 0.4, because when im pressing down on a key and the key wiggles at all, rapid trigger picks it up as me beginning to release the key. I have ensured that all the standoffs are installed and the screws attaching to PCB to the plate are all tightened down pretty well. The space bar being an exception, because if I tighten that screw down all the way, it locks my stabilizer at the bottom. I keep that screw a bit loose.

#

when I had just the PCB + Switch Film + Plate I was able to use 0.15 without any problems. When I re added the switch foam (the stuff that goes in between all the keys), i wasn't able to use this sens anymore

untold wigeon
#

Too much foam in ur board

#

Ur gonna end up warping or breaking something

#

You have a ridiculous amount of layers

#

Scale it back.

#

@glad geyser

glad geyser
#

ditch the switch film? the switch foam makes the board sound a hell of a lot nicer

untold wigeon
#

The film is not the issue

#

Remove some case foam

glad geyser
#

the tofu came with a super thin layer of foam and thats all im using between the pcb and the case

untold wigeon
#

How hard was it to put your board back together did you have to force it?

glad geyser
#

no forcing required

#

Im using a gummy O ring so i have to squish that into place but without that the board fits in real nice with plenty of extra room

glad geyser

oh dude no way ive never seen this
