Jade's

#

I got mine from gats website and surprisingly they are using this box for 3 types of switches

fierce canyon
stray tiger
# untold wigeon

Yeah that's why I asked. I had the same packaging so wasn't sure which ones you got

untold wigeon
#

Which didn't look like the Jade's

#

So I was worried for a hot minute

fierce canyon
#

ahah, yeah my heart would skip a beat lol

#

(also thanks for the answer, i hadn't been able to find any reference to shipping times anywhere else)

stray tiger
#

Maybe not, you might have got something even better and worst case is you would have got to keep them and they still would have sent you the jades.

#

Aint no way they will ask you to ship them back to China.

fierce canyon
#

lol maybe

untold wigeon
#

Yea I've had a couple of Ali express orders go wrong and they just shipped me a new one

fierce canyon
#

though i'm also impatient as hecc atm

untold wigeon
#

Also

#

Shipping status from them

#

Is really off in my opinion

#

I didn't get an update until it was out for delivery

#

So there is hope.

fierce canyon
#

sheesh that's a teeny bit unfortunate

untold wigeon
#

They did give me 4 sample switched which is cool

fierce canyon
#

oh neat

untold wigeon
#

These are crazy nice

#

worth the wait 1000%

signal berry
#

wish i could get em 😦

signal berry
untold wigeon
#

I would say give or take 2 weeks

fierce canyon
#

Website said to expect up to 20 days? I've been waiting 11 so-far. Sounds like mileage would vary a lot.

untold wigeon
#

yea i was worried as well

#

cuz they also dont update the shipping

#

but if you really cant wait you can upgrade the shipping for an extra cost

tame vessel
#

Yeah, they don't have an automatic system to update the shipping. I think it's all manual?

#

At least, it seemed manual

This is interesting, “20U” is the new switch that’s not yet officially released. Seems like Gateron is losing their shit again right when it went so perfectly.. Jades: “20T”, Oranges: “20T”.. 🥴

untold wigeon
#

See that's what I thought

#

But I was like did I leak by accide t

median spade
#

I think gateron shipped these jades with snail mail

untold wigeon
#

They have to let the lube settle during shipping

median spade
#

worst part about it is I found a store here in US that has them in stock and would have been 2 day shipping

#

asked gateron to cancel my order and they shipped it anyways

#

Here is the page for any other US/Canada folks who want jades and not have to wait for the heat death of the universe to get them:

thats what happens when i do my big orders on kbdfans

#

they always add the switches after

#

lmao

old swallow
# untold wigeon

ooh haha, i had the exact same thing. nearly had a heart attack

void hollow
#

which are the stabs i should swap if i wanted to gummy mount?

#

on the module, i forgot

inner ridge
#

Heyo was just wondering if there was any build guides for the kbdfans fr4 plate? As I tried assembling yesterday but none of my switches went in and I think it’s because my plate was screwrd in too far from the pcb and foam

fluid ravine
void hollow
#

the switchpad was kinda dumb indeed

#

i took it out to see it kinda smashed up

fluid ravine
#

no difference?

#

I honestly dont remember what the before and after was like for my board

#

but i just left it there without a care

void hollow
#

doesnt make a big difference for switchpad imo

fluid ravine
void hollow
#

very little

#

minimal, barely noticable haha

fluid ravine
#

what was the difference

#

haha

#

im wondering since i dont know

void hollow
fluid ravine
#

lmao

void hollow
#

wait did i get it wrong

fluid ravine
#

this is from kbdfans right?

void hollow
#

yeah

fluid ravine
void hollow
#

it causes the 0.5mm difference too

fluid ravine
#

so how thick is that?

void hollow
#

i think 0.5mm

fluid ravine
#

hmm

#

my switch pads are .5mm as well

void hollow
#

but yea it got squished in between the pcb and switches

fluid ravine
#

mine does as well

#

afterall this is not a normal switch design

void hollow
#

soooo depending on the tightness of the screws, there might be little inaccuracy which is about 0.5mm~?

fluid ravine
#

so its just filling that gap

#

but im guessing

#

im not sure

void hollow
#

ahh, im not too sure either

#

just two pcbs on my lap

#

XD

fluid ravine
#

lmao

#

i take it back

#

not gap is def not .5mm

void hollow
#

yeah haha

fluid ravine
#

it wouldnt make sense if the pads are getting squish

#

but it shouldnt effect the magnet either cus again its kinda squished

void hollow
#

but the increased in distance between the pcb and switches caused by the switchpad with the variance of tightness of screws squishing the switch pad

#

i would assume 0.3-0.5mm

fluid ravine
#

oh well

#

might as well i have mine in there

void hollow
#

not that ill feel the difference though

fluid ravine
#

exactly

void hollow
#

like the 0.5mm

fluid ravine
#

its just ¯_(ツ)_/¯

void hollow
#

like i found my sweet spot on the wooting anyways on like 2mm

#

but i always had a question in mind lol

#

like objectively comparing screw-ins vs tx-ap

#

which would is better?

quiet bay
#

screw ins would be more secure

#

because it's a screw

#

although they are both equally as good tbh

void hollow
lavish flax
#

is there a way to minimize movement of spacebar or is it a problem with the stem of lekker switch? 😭

untold wigeon
#

Thats the next thing i have to get

#

some polyfill

#

gotta see if its worth the hype

#

either that or i might just use the redux foam

#

havent tried it out yet

fluid ravine

tame vessel
#

What o-rings were people using against to burger mount the wooting again? I just noticed the sound profile difference between a key near the mounting point and one further away so its bugging me . _.

quiet bay
#

Switch tape mod should help the stem wobble and films should help the housing wobble

#

that should help wobble a bit

#

and then for stabs

#

you can try making the housings tighter on the plate with like tape or something

lost badge
#

what is the difference between e-coating and anodized?

void hollow
#

the txap doesnt wanna get installed

#

do you have to break anything on them🤡

fluid ravine
tame vessel
#

Huh, so gummy mounting seems interesting. Am I right in seeing that the wooting needs a AS568-263 B50 (NBR) Buna-N Nitrile 50 Duro O-Ring for the Tofu60 redux?

void hollow
#

HAHAHAHA

#

my first time with custom stabs kays HAHAHA i didnt know that was how it worked

fluid ravine
void hollow
#

welp i realised the clipins are pcb mounted

#

not plate clip-ins

fluid ravine
void hollow
#

oops HAHA

fluid ravine
#

Plate mount, screw ins, clip ins

void hollow
#

i was trying to put them on the plate like 50% of the time

fluid ravine

We don't EVER talk abt Costar stabs pepe_uhm

but welp i have just rebuilt a stock wooting to sell it

the latest thing i tried is just a 1440p to try out for the first time

#

although it had more pixels and everythin it felt weird going back to 1080p

sweet oak
#

Yeah 1080p is just fuzzy when switching between the two

fluid ravine

so its all good now 👍

sweet oak
#

Yeah 1080p is pretty unbeatable in terms of maxing those frames

I only have a few things I would want to upgrade to in my setup

mainly a new desk

Yesss

#

Desk upgrades are so worth

but other than that, atm Im looking forward into getting new HE switches and new keycap sets

Yeah i went from 48 to 60 and it gave me a lot of room to make my setup look nicer

dont really know abt desks haha

It let me experiment with my sensitivity more so now im settled at 800 dpi, though still better with a faster in game sense overall

Wooting Double-Shot PBT White/Black Keycaps Review #shorts
This is my review of the Wooting Double-Shot PBT Keycaps. They were kind enough to send me a set in white and black so I could show them off. I personally think they make the RGB really pop. They are about 1.4mm in thickness and have a nice subtle texture to them as well.

#

@harsh dove , how much do they take to reply about the black PC plate, it was been a week for me, I followed up yesterday with another email. no response yet...

bronze grove
#

What's the question?

mental salmon
#

I bought 2 PC plates, one white, one black, I received 2 whites. Contacted Wooting one week ago, no response outside of the automated email

bronze grove
#

Gotcha - So not a question about the product. Afraid you'll have to wait for CS to reply to the email then. If you haven't already, please include photos of both, so we can do a quick replacement shipment.

mental salmon
#

ok, good call, I will send a picture, what I am afraid of is Wooting managing all the support using email only, instead of you know, Jira or something to manage tickets. But that is another conversation

For orders seems to be pretty nice, and the integration with the hub is something I really enjoy. Hope for support you have a similar degree of visibility in the backend

void hollow
#

the cs was really prompt at a point, about ~12hr

#

i think as the customer count increases with the ticket counts so thats why they've been lacking behind

#

but so far have very positive experience with their cs

bronze grove
#

We're definitely catching up overall. It's a hard thing to balance with increase in customers and trends, with hiring and training more staff.

#

Every time we release a batch into being shipped, that's a whole flood of tickets all at once.

uncut musk
#

Honestly the experience I had with customer support was really pleasant, everything was done within like 2 days

mental salmon
#

Also it is not magic, you hire new people, but you need to train them first, that takes time

void hollow
#

yeah im aware that the training part defo takes time, quality is important after all :D

#

i was trained as an admin cs before and damn did it take time to learn and get used to everything

#

now to think about it, i feel like i was being underpaid xD

@bronze grove, picture sent, thanks for the recommendation, back to the mods

wet hazel
#

After testing all the keys of the keyboard, only this Backspace (upper right) has a noticeable ping-clack sound instead of a more muted-thock like the others, even the _+ keys just at the left, why it happens and what I need to do to prevent that?

-Module+Tofu+Foam+o-ring in screws-only factory lubed-no mods

*Sounds more metallic on irl than on the video

i have seen alot of people clipping stabilizers, have anyone tried it with the tx-aps

interestingly enough i kept the screw-on stabs for the spacebar and yet i could still gummy mount it o.o

Maybe why

brass weight shouldnt effect sound

Well I have two foams inside, one covering the brass weight cutout and the other the wooting one that covers all the case

#

Less pingy cos it’s less hollow

Needed to push pretty much to match the usb

like I said the stab is probably just poorly lubed, since from that sound test it sounds rattly

I'm just about to order some Gateron magnetic jade switches and was told I would possibly need a long stab for it. Can anyone explain why?

because the space bar might pop off the opposite end but I don't really understand why these switches would cause that

yeah i was going for that cleaner all around

if you get the jist of it

was thinking of adding a little mods like lubing them and change the case not much

#

Yea, I like the signature wooting look, but a clean brandless build would be with a tofu60 or a similar case

vocal herald
#

don't really know much about keyboard mods

grim furnace
#

lubing helps a lot, other than that you don't need much modding

#

changing case and keycaps perhaps for the aesthetics is fun

yeah the stock sounds great but i just wanted a little oomph to it

#

yes i have pudding keycaps i'll try them on it first and see how they look and maybe buy a different set in the future

the case foam

#

ah shi, that im not sure then

anyways i suggest polyfill

in replacement of case foam

vocal herald

thickness wise

makes the wooting sound a whole lot better

thank you for reminding me i have a studio grade acoustic foam that i bought to want to experiment with it in the wooting but i casted it away under my bed

I've used it for growing plants, horrible substance to work with and touch. Sound dampening aside.

are u talking about spray foam ?

void hollow
#

no

grizzled sigil
void hollow
#

it is thick, you have to cut it to use it in a keyboard definitely

tribal dawn
#

might as well stick some fiberglass in there, lol

void hollow
#

or just straight up use polyfill

vocal herald
#

but they thick so we gon have to cut it sideways ?

void hollow
#

yeah

vocal herald
#

bruh where can i just get a little polyfill foam

#

these prices are crazy

#

i don't want a bag of foam

I wanna get into keyboard modding and I heard people say tape modding is really easy would you guys say that’s true and a good place to start

If you have any questions you can always ask us here,

And yes tape modding is a quite cheap and simple mod that can be done and removed.

I would always try it out to see if you like it or not, especially on how many layers you want to use.

But if you dont like it, then again you can always remove it.

Nobody does it better than wooting

#

you can have a nice case, keycaps, switches, whatever, but your software still sucks

#

Nobody's software has come on par with Wooting yet

#

123ms response time is terrible

#

Pretty sure that's worse than the Highground HE Board

untold wigeon

In my eyes these companies are just trying to cash in on the HE hype train

I can agree with that

harsh dove
median spade
#

what is the key thing that makes the performance of wooting so much better FeelsThinkingMan

#

haven't ever looked into it

harsh dove
#

Latency and Software

median spade
#

right, but is it the mcu they're using ors omething else

harsh dove
#

Out of all HE boards so far, Wooting has the fastest latency

median spade
#

Even the other good competitors that get closeish are still far off in a sense like the apex

harsh dove
#

Yeah Steelseries Apex is the closest

#

and I'm not sure about the mcu tbh

median spade
#

Like I know software makes a huge difference, but want to know if there is another key factor that's making it so head and hills above the rest

Hmmm I think the meteorite gray tofu 60 redux would probably match better since it's e-coated as well. I'm just not sure about the glitter in it

tiny flint

its problably the lighting…. These keycaps are dark blue

So umm problably fits best w/ black

Yo that meteorite grey tofu might go REALLY well with that new near black beastx mini

Yes true, I didn’t even count Steelseries and Razer 🤣

I’m pretty sure the Endgame and ATK share the same PCBA.

But price point is quite different.

harsh dove

If that's true then they share similar PCBA to Highground as well

ATK ^

Yep

same PCBA then

Endgame one was KG65 tho

Highground was also KG64

Got a question do i need the anti static stickers for the mounting on the tofu60 redux case ?

And what wld be a good washer for the burger mount

#

And is the silicone standoff from kbdfans any worth to get

glacial wind
#

so confirmed they took the pcb and just swapped switches for it basically

#

I do want to see a test of the boog75 though since it should be non oem pcb and software

#

Though meletrix never really optimised for latency in the past so wouldn’t hold my breath for it to be top tier for that

harsh dove

PCBAs are OEM, firmware and software don’t look to be however.

#

what mount is tenz using o.o @fluid ravine

harsh dove
#

There was a post someone made a while back that made everyone think they needed Long Pole stabs if they were getting Jades

#

But that is half incorrect

celest parrot
harsh dove
#

You only need Long Pole if you experience issues with keycap wobble, typically on the spacebar

#

And even then

celest parrot
#

So there is some keycaps that just works with the jades?

harsh dove
#

TheThockFather (Tirade) has shared that you can get small silicon o-rings to place on your stems and prevent the keycap wobble

#

without the need for LP stabs

#

It mainly comes down to keycap tolerance on the stems

celest parrot
#

Could suggest some quality keycaps please

harsh dove
#

Imo anything about $70 or more

celest parrot
#

Yeah money is no problem

harsh dove
#

But there's a lot of diff companies to choose from

void hollow

I like GMK a lot for their colorways, there's CannonKeys, Wuque Studio, PBTFans

i got my jade switches today.
maybe i dont know it better but for me its a huge difference between factory lubed (first one) and hand lubed (second one)

tame vessel
#

That sounds like a fairly big difference. Is it mostly dampening the sound when it bottoms out?

upbeat hornet
#

i would say it dampening the sound in both ways but a litte bit more if the stem comes back

tame vessel
#

Hmm now I'm debating going through the process of hand lubing mine

devout torrent
#

might neeed to go back and give it another pass

upbeat hornet
#

maybe its a "batch thing" ? idk

i like my jades hand lubed way more

Unless they use the same exact magnets

Would like to probe my board with my oscilloscope to see the response curve on the stock config

And see how it differs from 3rd party switches
