[devout torrent]

yeah they do

[polar girder]

Damn box stem but not 60HE compatible

Bummer

[devout torrent]

I think they should work with wooting

but we'll see

the oeutemu OTM is box and you can use it with a wooting if you take the magnet out and flip it

seen people do it

but thats such a pain in the ass idk why you'd do that

kailh also has bbox switches with both N and S magnet orientation

one color for each poolarity so one might work in wooting

but idk if anyone has tried it

[stray tiger]

Not sure why they would make a switch that doesnt work with their current board unless they plan to support multiple switch types via a firmware update

[devout torrent]

they have a new everglide ae68 version coming as well

[stray tiger]

I have some of the Outemu's and Id like to know how the hell they flip the magnets. That would be a huge pain in the ass

I think he cuts the stem a bit

then pulls it ouit and flips

super huge pain

[stray tiger]

Oh he did one switch. I can see that. Doing 70, hell no

[devout torrent]

ya no one sane would do it

[stray tiger]

At least that confirms that the magnets are reverse polarity, which is what I hypothesized

[devout torrent]

have you seen anyone try the kailh switches?

they have one switch with N poliaryt and one with S

not really sure which one wooting uses but they offer both which is cool

[stray tiger]

The Sakua Pinks or the Ice Creams?

[devout torrent]

no the new ones

flame and mistral

[stray tiger]

No, I havent seen anyone try those

[devout torrent]

I dont think they are for sale on their store either yet

😐

[harsh dove]

Yeah we were talking about this, good to know

Figured they were

[devout torrent]

latenpow strawberry is also opposite polarity

but you can swap lekker stem in it

the housings seem to be similar to raptor

[stray tiger]

The reality is that there are only about 5-6 actual switch manufacturers and a lot of these all come from the same few factories

[devout torrent]

yeah makes sense

just like the HE boards, only a couple factories making most of them

[tawdry tree]

Calder said Wooting could technically support those right?

[stray tiger]

He said they are looking into it but that it may be possible with a firmware update. Thats all I know

[tawdry tree]

Yeah

[devout torrent]

sweet

that would open up some options

[polar girder]

That’s Wooting compatible?

[bronze grove]

Don't show, tell.

What switch is this?

[devout torrent]

everglide's new HE switch

[polar girder]

This one

Idk

[devout torrent]

idk either tbh

[tawdry tree]

Pins seem to be in the same spot if that’s what you’re referring to.

[polar girder]

Clip in switches? Lol

Double clip in

Could be sweet

Attach to plate and PCB lol

I want an ultralight magnet.

[stray tiger]

The legs wouldnt likely be an issue but again, their current boards use a Heijn switch that isnt really compatible

[polar girder]

Thin high power

[polar girder]

Ah

Yeah I know nothing

[stray tiger]

So Im not sure why they would design a switch that didnt work with their existing board OR they plan to update their existing boards to work with new switches

[teal parcel]

Did you buy from Mechkeys

[devout torrent]

dont trust my word idk if itll work in wooting

just saw some speculation online

[polar girder]

Are they for sale?

They look sweet

[devout torrent]

I saw some posts saying it comes out today or tomorrow

[polar girder]

What is that little slide part tho ??

[devout torrent]

prob on taobao

the little slide thihng in the front?

diffuser for LEDs

[polar girder]

Ah

Damn that’s high class lol

[harsh dove]

Yeah

[devout torrent]

yeah LED diffsuer

[devout torrent]

one of their stores told me it would support weooting

but not sure if true

[harsh dove]

This isn’t the first time a switch has had an led diffuser

[devout torrent]

thats why I assumed it would

but could be wrong ofc

[stray tiger]

Then that means it wont work in their current board or they are making changes for it to work

[devout torrent]

I know they ave another AE68 coming out

maybe itll work in that one

idk

[polar girder]

I know nothing. First time I’ve seen it lol

[harsh dove]

Oh okay lol fair

[polar girder]

I only started paying attention to switches after I got a Wooting lol

[harsh dove]

Yeah plenty of switch have those already

[devout torrent]

ae68 v2

[polar girder]

Right on

[harsh dove]

lol

[tawdry tree]

KS-20Us have them too but they’re attached to the top housing.

[polar girder]

Those the dual rail ones?

[harsh dove]

I will say it is a somewhat newer design tho

[polar girder]

Gotcha

[tawdry tree]

Looks sick!

[polar girder]

g2k

[tawdry tree]

Yes

[devout torrent]

yeah way better than current version

[polar girder]

Still want a dual rail box stem lol

[devout torrent]

and gasket mounted + fr4 plate

[tawdry tree]

Some have their LED going through the switch instead of a diffuser. Like the old razer boards

[harsh dove]

Yeah

Which is weird to me ig

[devout torrent]

dude steelseries does this

the switches are hotswap

but they solder in LEDs for the apex boards

so sad

[tawdry tree]

😂

[devout torrent]

have you seen that

$380 steelseries board

lmao

and its rattly as hell

[tawdry tree]

You can’t take out the switches cause of the led?

[devout torrent]

ya cuause those are soldered

[peak geode]

jades came in 🙂

[devout torrent]

jades go hard

I wish I got the jar with mine

I got 2 trays instead

[tawdry tree]

😂😂💀

[peak geode]

excited :))

[tawdry tree]

I got them in a zip bag.. 🥲

[devout torrent]

oh no lol

ok trays is better than that lol

[tawdry tree]

This is the new box though, the same box is used for the KS-20Us

[peak geode]

and the orings for burger mounting came in today too 🙂

[tawdry tree]

Yeah, my KS-20s came with trays

[peak geode]

debating on foam pads rn

cause theyre cheap

[tawdry tree]

Haven’t tried, if they have cutouts for the LES and pins you can give them a try.

[peak geode]

might do it later on down the line

rn i plan on tape modding, burger mounting and using jades

[agile grove]

be careful, they can interfere with the sensing and cause the board to freak out

[peak geode]

and foam

gotcha

now all i have to do is wait for usps 🙂

[tawdry tree]

Nothing the recalibration can’t fix.

[sick minnow]

If I wanted to replace the 60he case with a bright wooden case, does anyone have any suggestions?

[agile grove]

I have heard people having issues with them ¯_(ツ)_/¯

[tawdry tree]

ok

[harsh dove]

My jades came in a jar

And I ordered them like day one

[tawdry tree]

I honestly think they ran out of those jars or something

[harsh dove]

You order from Gateron?

[tawdry tree]

😂

Yes

[harsh dove]

Weird

Guess they ran out

lol

[tawdry tree]

Also what does “Switch Inside” mean?

On the jar.

[bronze grove]

I guess it's a pun on the old "intel inside"?

[tawdry tree]

If that’s the case I have a whole lot more respect for Gateron. 😂😂

[stray tiger]

Its actually pretty funny if thats it haha

[stray tiger]

Same here. In a jar in a box

[harsh dove]

Right yeah lol

People over here gettin plastic trays and ziplock bags I guess

lol

[tawdry tree]

A jar in a box, a tray and a ziplock bag.

[teal parcel]

Are you planning to do a review type a thing here like you did with the other switches?

[harsh dove]

Yeah

[teal parcel]

Cool cool I’ll wait until then, not many reviews on it currently

[harsh dove]

Module just arrived

But I’m at work

[median spade]

which switches did you get now

[harsh dove]

KS20U Dual Rail HE

[median spade]

gotcha gotcha

where did you order from

[harsh dove]

Mechkeys

[sage mirage]

what gummy mount o-ring is good for the wooting and what o ring for the burger mount

[peak geode]

i bought these for the burger mounts (what ive heard from others)
https://a.co/d/9mEiWIk

theyre like 5 bucks

[fluid ravine]

Bakeneko60 and Graveshift M size
For gummy mounting

[sage mirage]

is the s too small

also what the diffrence between the softer rubber and harder rubber

[fluid ravine]

did you order?

[fluid ravine]

yes

well honestly idk

[stray tiger]

Softer rubber is thicker but bouncier, however thicker also means more issues installing and removing

[fluid ravine]

dunno much abt the s size but i know the M works

[sage mirage]

ok

what did yall go with

[fluid ravine]

I have the Bakeneko60 30a oring

[stray tiger]

Id suggest a durometer of 50a on average

[fluid ravine]

^^

[stray tiger]

Ive used 35-65a but 50 is a good middle ground

[sage mirage]

ok

LOL a stupid question anyone tryed both of them together

[fluid ravine]

it wont work

nor does it work like that

[sage mirage]

ok and which method did you perfer

[fluid ravine]

gummy

[sage mirage]

better sound or better feel

[fluid ravine]

both

[sage mirage]

??

i just got both

[fluid ravine]

Gummy mount both sound and feel better than tray mount (Burger mount is also tray mount)
Gummy mount makes the sound profile more balance or even throughout the whole keyboard. Tray mount tends to have "dead" spots which gives weird uneven sounds between some switch or every switch. And in terms of feel, tray mount is obviously stiff since its screwed down into the case, gummy mount however is a bit softer, it's not crazy soft but you can enhance it by using case foam like polyfill which allows it to bounce more (from my experience).

[sage mirage]

ok

probly gonna go gummy but will do with buger untill it arrives GOD i hate that amazon doen't have the gummy shit

[harsh dove]

Yeah

[fluid ravine]

aight keep us updated

im depending on you

my future buy is coming soon!

[twin marsh]

can you do the tape mod on the wooting 60he

[mellow beacon]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6poF-Z0ajhE&

yes

[tame vessel]

I think there are equivalents on Amazon you just need to be more specific with the searches

Othmro Silicone O-Ring,... https://www.amazon.ca/dp/B07WRWDMKP?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share

I'm using this atm

[twin marsh]

aye but i read that the pcb can generate heat so feels like that could be a problem

[harsh dove]

No

[harsh dove]

Believe hes referring to the o-rings needed for gummy friction mount, not burger mount

In which case, Amazon doesn’t carry the friction mount rings

At least not reliably tested ones.

[tame vessel]

That o-ring I linked is sized the same as the ones used for friction mounting afaik

[fluid ravine]

y not

lol

[tame vessel]

Like the o-rings used can be found at wholesalers and sold individually if you find the right size

[harsh dove]

I read too fast sorry lol I just saw the link and it looks similar to the burger mount rings

[tame vessel]

Ah gotcha gotcha, no worries ✌️

Aww yeah e-coated tofu arrived

[harsh dove]

Yeah

[fluid ravine]

[uncut musk]

did you pay for expedited btw? mr cam

[harsh dove]

KS-20?

👀

[uncut musk]

lol

[harsh dove]

Yes

[peak geode]

ggs

you in the states?

[harsh dove]

I almost always pay expedited for everything unless shipping is like $60

Yeah

[peak geode]

west coast?

[harsh dove]

Colorado

[peak geode]

oh wow

[uncut musk]

yeah same, was just curios since you had usps and i had ups, figure its because of locations

[fluid ravine]

instantly reminded of miliky yellows

[fluid ravine]

say hi to my cousins, uncle, and aunt for me!

[uncut musk]

never tried milky yellows

[fluid ravine]

really good budget switch

[uncut musk]

My switch path was clicky blues- some razor switch, mx browns, some razor switch, gateron reds, akko cs pianos, and now it will be Lekker switches

[stray tiger]

Didnt know we were neighbors

[harsh dove]

The more you know

https://tenor.com/view/hi-waving-wave-hi-neighbor-good-to-see-you-gif-15175329

[uncut musk]

My sister and her fiancé moved up there back in september

[stray tiger]

Well not that close but in UT so pretty close

[harsh dove]

lol

Nice

[stray tiger]

You should come to keycon in April

[tawdry tree]

🤣🤣🤣

[uncut musk]

hmm

[harsh dove]

I’ll actually look into that rn

[uncut musk]

that would be sick af

[harsh dove]

After dinner

[fluid ravine]

HyperX red switches, Razer optical silents, Gateron Browns, akko v3 yellow creams, lekkers 60-> switch taped lekker 60

[tame vessel]

There we go, so Jades, tape mod, gummy mounted and lubed stabs in a tofu60redux with the weight and their foam

[uncut musk]

I dont think I can go back to a clicky switch or a switch that cant be lubed

[tame vessel]

Sound test

I feel like I should stuff the space bar with something to mute the sound of it

[harsh dove]

I used to think this too, but then I realized I was just annoyed by the sound of my spacebar , so I tuned my stabs properly and now I love my spacebar

[tame vessel]

I was watching that video earlier so maybe I should try tuning too ' o'

[harsh dove]

Yes

Absolutely

[stray tiger]

quake putty or blue tack

[summer kettle]

Guys anyone got recommendations for base wooting switch upgrades? like just general better switches to upgrade to?

[uncut musk]

https://www.amazon.com/Quakehold-88111-Museum-Putty-Neutral/dp/B0002VA9NA/ref=sr_1_1 this the shit tirade said to use

[harsh dove]

^^

I’ve used this and spacebar foam from kdbfans

[tame vessel]

Hmm I might try some white tack since I have plenty laying around

[harsh dove]

But now I don’t use anything

[tame vessel]

One issue I do have with tuning my stabs is that I don't have a syringe on hand currently xD

[harsh dove]

Don’t need one

[uncut musk]

you dont need one

[harsh dove]

Just helps

[uncut musk]

makes it easier probs

[tame vessel]

Oh, do you just keep popping out the stabs then?

[harsh dove]

Just quicker yeah

Yeah I pop mine out spread some grease around the ends of the wire and the elbow and then lube the stems with 205

[tame vessel]

I applied grease, but might try some more. Definitely forgot to lube the stems

[harsh dove]

Are you using stock wooting stabs or 3rd party?

[slim drift]

thats amazing wtf

[tame vessel]

Thanks!

[harsh dove]

In my experience lubing stabs, less is more

Especially with TX AP

[lapis imp]

got my wooting recently anyone know what kind of things i should change

[loud zephyr]

the only mod u need

https://spaceholdings.net/cdn/shop/files/chad-2.jpg?v=1706728861

[lapis imp]

not sure what that is 😭

[harsh dove]

Get outta here

Fuckin horrendous

[loud zephyr]

[harsh dove]

Don’t disrespect my cable like that

[lapis imp]

would ceramic keycaps make the rapid trigger not function as well?

[tame vessel]

It should be fine. You may just need to mess with the settings

Okay, tuned the stabs a bit and I think I zeroed in on what was bugging me. It was just the hollow sound of the space bar so I put in some white tack and I think I'm good now

[lapis imp]

im not even sure i understand half of what you said...

[tame vessel]

Ignore that bit.

[lapis imp]

english isnt main language sorry

[tame vessel]

That's just the more nit picky part of wanting things to sound the way I prefer.

Okay, I think that works. Might do it to all the keycaps that use stabs maybe

[tame vessel]

No worries, to answer your question ceramic keycaps should be fine with the base switches that come with the keyboard. You can actually adjust at what height the rapid trigger activates in their software as well if there are issues.

[stray tiger]

The spacebar is the one you typically have to worry about but I would suggest getting the L60's and not the L45 switches.

[harsh dove]

Stabs should sound like an attack helicopter

If they don’t

You’re doing it wrong

[stray tiger]

https://tenor.com/view/arnold-schwarzenegger-predator-get-to-the-chopper-get-to-the-choppa-gif-16195562

[tame vessel]

🚁

[harsh dove]

I wanna open this module

But voices are telling me I should stream it

[tame vessel]

Monetization, ho!

[harsh dove]

Pfft

[hard sapphire]

So can and should I do all the modding possible? Burger mod gummy mod, tape mod? Can I do them all? And is that all of them?

[tawdry tree]

Either gummy or burger, you can do both but that wouldn’t make much sense. 😉

For more mods you can check #🪛│modding_faq 👍

[tame vessel]

Can you? Totally. Should you? It's really just a sound preference thing.

[uncut musk]

to the redux owners out there do yall use those little tiny foam pads things, they give you like 8 of them

kinda like half circles

[exotic pewter]

lubed a set of geon raptors and threw them in my wooting module but switched to stock jade switches right after. They sound so good. Just gotta take the time to lube them now

[harsh dove]

I personally didn't really notice a difference in stock Jades vs lubed jades, and I'm a stickler for hand lubing

[exotic pewter]

really? so maybe not worth taking the time then

[harsh dove]

I went ahead and lubed the bottoms where the closure is

[agile grove]

I think they're for the bumps the PCB sits on. I threw them out, never heard of anyone using them personally.

[harsh dove]

but I didn't bother doing a full hand lube sesh like I normally would

[exotic pewter]

what did you end up lubing?

[harsh dove]

Main reason being, the Jades factory lube was very consistent in my batch

[uncut musk]

hmm i feel like ill throw them in there and prob forget abt them lol

[harsh dove]

bottom housing where the magnet hits

[exotic pewter]

have you tried raptors yet?

[harsh dove]

Yeah I have those

Hand lubed

[exotic pewter]

what do you prefer?

[harsh dove]

Jades every day of the week

Nothing wrong with Raptors

Just not for me

[sour siren]

how does the modded wooting with jade switches compare to a keychron for typing?

[exotic pewter]

def. Now I just gotta decide if I want to lube them but not sure if its worth the time. Maybe when I have some down time in the future but im really happy with the stock feel and sound

[exotic pewter]

thank you for your input btw

[harsh dove]

I don't own a Keychron so idk

I'd imagine a Wooting has more potential to be a better typing experience

[bitter valve]

Should I sell Glarses cherry mx purples?

[harsh dove]

Why

[bitter valve]

Bought it for no reason basically, just as a collectible

[tame vessel]

I mean, that's very much a depends on you question then if you're not hurting for cash.

[harsh dove]

Then collect it lol

[bitter valve]

Gave some to my co-worker, he’s rocking them in his work kb now

[harsh dove]

Idk I wouldn't sell em

Make a keeb with them and put it on display or idk do something with them so they don't seem as useless

[bitter valve]

Yeah, might try them in my ducky if I can ever get it to sound good lol

[harsh dove]

Lol goodluck

Hahaha, thanks

[static tendon]

Oh dang you already got it??

Mine is still waiting for USPS to recieve it

[sharp yew]

speaking of usps

serika geometries went from "out for delivery" to "available for pickup" 🛌

[harsh dove]

Yesir

[static tendon]

Right on! Congrats, can't wait for mine to arrive as well

[agile grove]

same, for the past 3 days or so

[waxen bane]

Should I put the module directly into the alumaze or do I need standoffs?

[agile grove]

you can put the bottom standoff

[static tendon]

I honestly think it's cause @harsh dove quickly confirmed their address. I confirmed mine a couple hours later

[waxen bane]

So standoff then foam then module?

[agile grove]

my cope theory is that since I live on the other side of the country, its currently getting shipped to the next hub but its taking a while so it hasnt been scanned yet

[harsh dove]

Tbh you can just use 4 screws and no standoffs

two on either side

and no screws in the middle or spacebar

[agile grove]

shouldnt really matter so long as its in the same day

[static tendon]

Could be why, did you get a tracking number yet?

[agile grove]

I did

[static tendon]

I even have expedited shipping

[static tendon]

Gotcha

[bitter valve]

Jades factory lubing is inconsistent btw, but I was gonna re-lube them anyway.

[harsh dove]

What

I think I'm reading this wrong

[harsh dove]

Yeah

[uncut musk]

yeah I live in fl, payed for the expedited shipping and will be getting it tmr, ups is shipping it

i think most everyone else ive seen has gotten usps

[agile grove]

I got economy shipping

[harsh dove]

I think I'm reading this as like, "my shoes are untied, but I was going to untie them anyway"

[low oyster]

all I know is that it gets here when it gets here and thats all that matters

I'd just prefer sooner than later

[harsh dove]

https://tenor.com/view/ladder-viralhog-walk-away-movement-gif-20242098

[bitter valve]

Hahaha, okay, factory lubing is inconsistent, meaning, there were some switches that were dry, like almost no lube at all. I was gonna hand-lube mine anyway, but I figured I’d let people know.

Your shoes analogy is off lol

[polar girder]

Yeah mines in Vegas at USPS but Monday arrival

Slow ahhh across the country ahhhh

[uncut musk]

it honestly should have gotten here today, like it got picked up by ups afternoon monday and its 2nd day air soooo

[agile grove]

bro im legit on the exact opposite side of the country

[harsh dove]

Yeah fair enough, this is usually the case with all switches tbh, I just happened to be surprised by my batch of Jades cause I opened every single switch and the lube was very consistent and like I said, I'm usually a stickler for hand lubing

[uncut musk]

same

lol

[harsh dove]

Usually one rail is lubed and the other side isn't

that's like the most common thing I see

[harsh dove]

lmao yeah I figured I was reading it wrong

Was the wording

[bitter valve]

Not my first language, so I do have problems with wording sometimes

[harsh dove]

Oh lol, not your fault, my brain just had a moment

[bitter valve]

For me it’s the stems. Either stay together with a spring or just fall off

Still thinking about putting med tape on the magnet, but will have to test first

[harsh dove]

Oh like the stems staying on top of the spring when you open up the switch?

[bitter valve]

Yeah, kinda

[harsh dove]

Like you want there to be enough lube so that the stem doesn't fall off the spring?

[odd grail]

I change my mind fuck this

[harsh dove]

LOL

https://tenor.com/view/spit-take-laughing-laugh-gif-13945267

I cannot for the life of me cut the tape without ruining it

[harsh dove]

It takes patience young grasshoppa

[bitter valve]

Not necessarily, just noting the inconsistency

[harsh dove]

Yeah, fair enough

[stable kindle]

maybe you can cut the switch to fit the tape?

[bitter valve]

Sharpen your scissors or get a new pair lol

[harsh dove]

cut the switch?

[tawdry tree]

https://tenor.com/view/pixel-cutter-cutter-cut-pixel-art-gif-14458449

[harsh dove]

Please elaborate

[stable kindle]

like the tape is cut but doesnt fit the switch

[odd grail]

I mean... I do have a whetstone

[odd grail]

I literally bought a new one for this exact purpose

[stable kindle]

so now we can cut the switch to fit the tape

[harsh dove]

What tape are you using? @odd grail

[odd grail]

No idea. But it's a very thin fabric medical tape I found at Wallgreens

[harsh dove]

https://a.co/d/f8fB5OA

Something like this?

[odd grail]

Exactly

[harsh dove]

Perfect

[odd grail]

That's what I thought

LMAO

I'm gonna use one of these

[harsh dove]

https://tenor.com/view/head-nod-yes-oh-gif-23727667

Good idea

[mental salmon]

Its going to be hard to find a guillotina, I have not seen one in many years 😅

[odd grail]

I'm pretty sure there's one at my school that I can use

[mental salmon]

Makes sense

[odd grail]

If that doesn't work I'll use this

[mental salmon]

@harsh dove how is the modding going?I did not have time to catch up with the messages today

[harsh dove]

I haven't opened it yet lol

I need too

[mental salmon]

Will you wait until the weekend?

[harsh dove]

Possibly

[tawdry tree]

You can just cut around the roll of tape without taking the tape off, that gets you a long thin line of tape.

[harsh dove]

Basically what I did then cut a bunch of tiny strips

Good time to examine your inner thoughts

You're gonna be cutting for awhile

[odd grail]

Wait that's actually fucking genius

Holy shit

[harsh dove]

Considering you need 140-280 strips depending on how many layers you're doing

[odd grail]

I'm thinking 2

[harsh dove]

Yeah, that's what I did

[odd grail]

[waxen bane]

hey does anyone know what to do with the Poron Sandwich Pad

from the module

like where do I put it

also I'm so glad I got the magnetic jade switches ty for the reccomendation they sound fantastic @glacial wind

[uncut musk]

you can interchange the poron sandwich pad with the one thats already installed in between the pcb and the plate

https://help.wooting.io/article/177-putting-your-60he-module-together

This shows at the bottom of the article where you would put it

in terms of the difference between the the silicone and the poron, the poron dampens the clacky noises

the silicone is more clacky

[waxen bane]

has anyone done a comparison??

I'm just assuming clacky is higher frequency vs thocky

my backspace for instance is stupidly thocky

but my enter key

is so weak

?

[uncut musk]

ill check and see normally wooting yt posts cound comparisons

[waxen bane]

oops

@uncut musk btw I hope you get your module soon I just got mine today

best $300 ever

[uncut musk]

getting mine tmr

well its scheduled anyway

[waxen bane]

I got expedited shipping

[uncut musk]

same

[waxen bane]

damn unlucky

[uncut musk]

eh

i live in fl

yeah i wasnt able to find a video that really highlighted it in an aluminum case but this kinda shows the difference kinda https://youtu.be/EjIHyIxfUwA?si=3C95XRNIYHdUfzX7&t=148

[waxen bane]

yknow hearing the audio of the lekkers on yt

I can see why these jade switches are so expensive

I'm smiling like an idiot just typing and it's factory lubed 😭

[uncut musk]

the god of HE switches is typing

oop

[stray tiger]

@harsh dove check your dm

[quiet bay]

yuh the lekkers need a major improvement in the sound department

[static tendon]

If I want a more "clack" sound for my module, should I use the silicone or foam?

[uncut musk]

silicone

from my understanding of what it does

[static tendon]

@harsh dove or @stray tiger what do you 2 use? Silicone or foam for the wooting?

[stray tiger]

I'm using nothing in 2 builds and foam in the 3rd

[static tendon]

Any particular reason for not using either? For a louder sound?

[stray tiger]

I just kind of prefer the sound

[static tendon]

Also when mentioning foam are you talking about the one at the bottom of the case or would this be the one between the PCB/plate?

[stray tiger]

Between

[static tendon]

Oh ok gotcha. In the past i've tried both foam and non foam and I gotta admit, I think I prefer the louder sound without the foam. I have not tried silicone though

[harsh dove]

Also using nothing in my current Wooting build

Inspired from Tirade

[static tendon]

Ok good to know

Just wanting to prepare everything before recieving the module. I already got my silicone O-rings as well for a burger mount

[crimson sky]

Some people actually like to hear their keyboard

[harsh dove]

Couldn’t resist

I opened it

Slapped the black plate on it

[harsh dove]

(Didn’t feel like the GMK Sumi fit the Alumaze aesthetic so I thru the Wooting PBT Caps on)

Jades x Salvation
Raptors x Alumaze

[marsh saffron]

How does it effect the sound

Louder/more clack or what

[harsh dove]

Gateron Jades x Salvation x GMK Dualshot x Wooting60HE+ Module

Geon Raptors x Alumaze60 x Wooting PBT x Wooting60HE

[harsh dove]

Just hollower sound

The way I see it is you get the true sound of your keeb

[marsh saffron]

I wanna make a silent (or as quiet as possible) 60he build

[harsh dove]

Try using silicone

Instead of foam

[marsh saffron]

Does alumaze come with silicone or is that the pc plate

[harsh dove]

Pc plate

Alumaze just comes with case foam

[harsh dove]

Also they just added black pc plate as an option if you’re planning on buying the kit

[marsh saffron]

Probably will pick it up when I get an alumaze

[harsh dove]

https://tenor.com/view/leonardo-di-caprio-one-of-us-one-of-us-gif-13765764

[wet hazel]

That's a pretty different sound, clack vs thock

[random dagger]

how much of an improvement would a "tapemod" bring? nevermind i checked pins

[marble shuttle]

does anyone how to use kbdfans standoff kit for custom plate?

[paper bloom]

Use the brass nut for the space bar stand off other than that youre good to go

The silicone u can add it in b4 u put ur PCB in

[marble shuttle]

i did it brother

[paper bloom]

As a replacement to the burgermount

[marble shuttle]

ahahahah i tried myself think about it

[paper bloom]

Oh if ur done it nice one

[paper bloom]

Oh this is what you meant

[marble shuttle]

Yeah bro atleast we did it

🤣

[paper bloom]

i thought u meant the case

I misread

mb

[marble shuttle]

np brother you tried to help

[paper bloom]

👍

Ty brother

[fresh ridge]

how do i know that this keycaps will fit? https://www.amazon.de/gp/product/B0BZCDWNDH/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?smid=A3OJWAJQNSBARP&th=1

[mental salmon]

Based on the videos I kind of prefer your black keyboard sound, could be the mic, but sounds better to me

[obsidian dagger]

cherry mx stem is the criteria

which is basically any set

including that one

[paper bloom]

Got a question

https://drop.com/buy/megalodon-console-64-keyboard/questions?discussionId=196343#196343

Anyone think this can fit the wooting

[paper bloom]

Not only can the joysticks be used

Just curious

[paper bloom]

This shld fit so long as the cherry stem fits

[crimson sky]

no

[paper bloom]

ok ty

[crimson sky]

at least needs a daughterboard if not a full custom PCB (more likely the latter)

[paper bloom]

Cuz im p certain u can remove the PCB and the Joycon sticks shld be a seperate joystick based

[crimson sky]

yea it looks like it

but the main PCB at least needs daughterboard support

[paper bloom]

True

[crimson sky]

for the USB C port

[paper bloom]

Welp i cant find it

Esp from Drop's image

yea ok nvm it does

it does need a daughterboard

[thick mural]

my black pc plate is taking forever since dpd is delivering

[arctic maple]

would this case fit the wooting 60he+ module? https://www.amazon.de/Mini-Tastatur-Kunststoffgehäuse-mechanische-Gaming-Tastatur-transparente/dp/B094NNM9ND/ref=mp_s_a_1_33?crid=CTPURK9SFASQ&keywords=gh60%2Baluminium&qid=1706779910&sprefix=gh60%2Caps%2C272&sr=8-33&th=1&psc=1

[meager pine]

so sad I didnt get this set 😦

[fresh ridge]

thanks for answering

[bronze grove]

You do if you want any LED lights.

[summer kettle]

anyone used the new ks-20u duel rail switches? if so thoughts? wanna replace mine stock wooting switches

[ionic gale]

Isn’t the sooting switches the reason the keyboard is good?

[grizzled path]

pcb/firmware for the most part. there are alternative wooting compatible switches now

but so far nothing has been superior really, they just have different pros and cons compared to stock

[ionic gale]

Icic

[devout torrent]

Ya

[tame vessel]

You're good, it's just the LEDs

[paper bloom]

Happy 2 help

[paper bloom]

Shld fit check the compatibility list in Wooting

@arctic maple https://wooting-technologies.notion.site/de7a52e2b5a941258a17e448b0c9d9b0?v=5ec0b31c59db4a51b8a86a1288249e9f

[teal parcel]

Is anyone else’s package still in Las Vegas hub? I got regular shipping but still haven’t moved since arriving

[paper bloom]

U gotta wait sometimes it takes time to update

[teal parcel]

Usually packages update somewhat in the morning. Kinda expected it to say left the hub at least lol

[paper bloom]

It happens

[tame vessel]

I had my packages held at LA as well recently for a customs checks

[agile grove]

mine just moved to a closer state, seems like they dont update it until it gets really close

it'll probably move to your regional facility sometime soon

[harsh dove]

Salvation with module is completely unmodded

No foam or anything, no tape mod, etc

The black one has gummy friction mount with 1 layer moleskin tape, foam pads for stabs and wires, stock case foam and no PCB foam

[mental salmon]

I need to try no foam between the plate and pcb

[harsh dove]

Yeah my salvation build literally has nothing in it now lol

[mental salmon]

So you also do not put any foam between the pcb and case?

[harsh dove]

Well salvation doesn’t use case foam anyway but yeah

And then also nothing between PCB and plate

[tame vessel]

Stock foam being the stock wooting foam or the tofu foam? At least I think that's a tofu

I think I'll try cutting the PCB foam as well

[novel yoke]

Why are some keys on the same row different heights?

[harsh dove]

Wooting foam

I don’t own a tofu

[obsidian dagger]

which ones?

they are not

[bronze grove]

They aren't unless you put them in wrong.

[novel yoke]

My j and d keys are significantly lower than rest of same row

[novel yoke]

Do you have a guess on which part is wrong?

[bronze grove]

Photos up on that bitch

[harsh dove]

Make sure they’re pushed down all the way and orientated correctly

Also what Mansen said, some photos

[novel yoke]

Maybe the k and l are too high

[novel yoke]

The switch or the key cap?

[harsh dove]

Both

Make sure switches are fully snapped into the plate

Make sure keycaps are fully pushed down onto switch stem

[novel yoke]

Do I need to buy a switch and key cap puller then

[agile grove]

both are optional but nice

[tame vessel]

Not if you're just pushing things closed

[hard sapphire]

wait those jades dont sound thoccy at all

[harsh dove]

That’s what happens when you have no thing inside your case or between PCB aka no foam

And they aren’t really inherently thocky switches

Ordered these last night , been wanting them for awhile tbh

Novelkeys did a drop and they sold out like instantly lol

[tame vessel]

Those look solid

[harsh dove]

Gonna try em on the black alumaze

[obsidian dagger]

hihihi

[crimson sky]

I think they just sold a few extras?

also

that is the PBT version

which is still in stock

[mental salmon]

Completely unrelated but a friend spilled coffee on his Keychron K2 Pro, it is not working now, do you guys know if you can buy a replacement pcb/pcba?

[crimson sky]

only option might be support

[harsh dove]

No, abs set

[crimson sky]

but unlikely

[novel yoke]

Turns out every singly key cap except for 4 were loose

[crimson sky]

I meant the image you sent in

is the PBT version

[harsh dove]

Oh idk

It’s this set hold on

https://novelkeys.com/products/gmk-olivia-no3

[crimson sky]

ye ik

[harsh dove]

Yeah not PBT

[crimson sky]

they originally had extras for ages

[harsh dove]

Yeah

[crimson sky]

they might have just found a few more than expected somewhere

[harsh dove]

Under a box in a corner

lol

If they were PBT I wouldn’t have got them

[crimson sky]

lol

yea same tho

5 side dyesub is always shit

[harsh dove]

Yeah I just don’t like the feel

[crimson sky]

eh

that really depends on the exact set tho

[harsh dove]

Truth

I just prefer texture of ABS overall

[crimson sky]

abs has no specific texture

can be extremely rough or glossy

[harsh dove]

Glossy after you sweat all over it lol

[crimson sky]

no I mean like straight out of the mold

[harsh dove]

No I know

[crimson sky]

dyesub PBT will always be a bit less textured due to the dyesub process

[harsh dove]

Yeah, in terms of comparing my wooting PBT set to my GMK sets, I prefer the feel of my GMK sets

[crimson sky]

eh

don't feel strong about it

the pbt sets I have do have enough texture to feel decent enough on hand

and that's about it

gmk is somewhere middle of the road for texture in comparison

DCS is a lot more textured on the side you touch

[harsh dove]

Yeah I don’t really wanna be typing on sand paper

Which is how my wooting set feels to me compared to my GMK sets

It’s like chalky sandpaper

[crimson sky]

ah

so you never tried dyseub PBT

almost always is less textured than gmk

[harsh dove]

I don’t buy PBT so no

lol

[crimson sky]

30€ jc studio caps are good

give them a try

[harsh dove]

I’ll check em out

Btw nothing against wootings keycaps lol, just not for me personally

[viscid sorrel]

Would these work with the 60HE?

[austere creek]

the shine through would be very dim cause the LEDs on our keyboard are north facing not south facing

[viscid sorrel]

Ahhh okay i wouldn’t be to bothered about it at all

[harsh dove]

It’d almost be like having blanks

[viscid sorrel]

I’m looking at key caps before I order that’s the thing

[harsh dove]

Gotcha

Pretty much any standard mx keycaps will work

[viscid sorrel]

I will try and find some nice mx keycaps

[stark osprey]

yes those will work

[paper bloom]

@crimson skyyea ur right the 7800X3D is better

ima grab those thanks again i was thinking shld i get the 7950X3D or not

But thats a good answer

[crimson sky]

If you have like specific stuff you wanna test in blender lmk

And i can test it

[paper bloom]

i will pass the files over if i have any

[crimson sky]

Got a 7800x3d

Dunno how a 7950x3d would perform exactly tho

[paper bloom]

ive checked the benches for gaming

the 7800x3D outperforms it in terms of 1080

4k wise if ur GPU isnt the latest

it will down grade

[sharp yew]

abs shine is just a sign of love

[crimson sky]

in gaming they are virtually the same

[paper bloom]

not if u set the 4K standard and RTX on

[crimson sky]

Since the 7950x3d parks a ccd

After which they are the same spec

[sharp yew]

yes, a very niche thing still

[paper bloom]

yea

[sharp yew]

4k rtx

[paper bloom]

which is like what a

2-1 % trade off

but its w/e

hence why the 7800 is better

[crimson sky]

Measuring tolerance

[paper bloom]

But still tho atleast i got a ZEN 5 MB thats compatible atleast

Cld switch out more or less

[uncut musk]

out for delivery, patience 😤.

[paper bloom]

@crimson sky Imagine having to spend extra to change mb and CPU's

each gen

LOL

[crimson sky]

not an issue if they forget to actually make new cpus but just rehash the same thing again and again

[harsh dove]

I have a 7800x3d and 4090 and was using 4K at one point. Plenty of fps

I’m using 34” UW now

[paper bloom]

Yea now im totally bought on the 7800x3d

[harsh dove]

Yeah def get it

[harsh dove]

With RTX too btw

[paper bloom]

im legit gonna grab it till the GEN 8k comes out and if its a hell of a difference

then i might cop that and a upgraded GPU

[round sparrow]

I have a 4080 and a ryzen 9 5900

[paper bloom]

welp

[round sparrow]

7800x3d is amazing but i dunno how much of a bitch temp is

[paper bloom]

also #🔌│tech LOL

[viscid sorrel]

Ay ty

[viscid sorrel]

That looks sick

[dense aurora]

Does any full size case work for the 2HE?

[agile grove]

no

[valid sun]

You need to make your own case sadly.
Fortunately you have the design files on github.

[valid sun]

I plan to make a case for mine in a rather distant future.

[glass mirage]

Hello i want to buy some nice ISO keycaps
If anyone can recomend me some nice EUrope sites let me know please

[neon kestrel]

Do people actually lube every switch ? Its gonna take me half a day

[tame vessel]

Yeahhhh

Jades switches tend to have ok factory lubing so you're ok there, but I hand lubed my l60s when I was using them

It is up to you though since it's mostly a sound thing

[neon kestrel]

I might just do all of them for long term use lol its just really painful i do maybe one switch in a minute just for lubing

[tame vessel]

It's definitely a put something on in the background activity

[median spade]

This why the proper tools are really helpful

I can do 60 switches in about an hour for traditional mech switches. The HE stuff only took me like 35 mins since you don't need to lube as many spots with them being contactless

[neon kestrel]

Ill have to see when ive used it for a while if the lubing was worth it, rn i never wanna do this again lol

[median spade]

It is indeed awful the first couple of times

But then you hear your keyboard post lube and you’re hooked

[mental salmon]

I hand lubed my l60s, the sound improves a Lot

But I did not disassemble the keyboard, it is harder to pull the switches that way, but you do not need to complete all the same day

[neon kestrel]

But that means no gaming for a day 😰😰

[mental salmon]

Correct, that is why I did one row or less each time, also I am not the fastest person to lube switches 🙂

[median spade]

tried to return my fjell and got ignored

[tame vessel]

I do now have an extra tofu redux I need to figure out what to do with

[median spade]

r/mechmarket

What color as some easier to sell than others

[tame vessel]

Anodized grey

Thanks, I'll give it a look 😯

[unreal pendant]

I assume o-ring mount isn't compatible with screw in stabs?

[bronze grove]

Not the one that goes all around the board. You'll need clip in replacements.

[cyan adder]

stock raptors? or stem swapped?

[harsh dove]

Stock hand lubed

[harsh dove]

Easier to manage than a 13900K

[bronze grove]

Ultimately the CPU will go as high temperature wise as you'll let it.

PBO for the 7800x3d has an 85c profile iirc.

And a 65c one.

[harsh dove]

Yeah I have mine PBO tuned with negative offset (-30) on all cores

[harsh dove]

This is the eco mode iirc

[bronze grove]

I just glanced at the list earlier today. I haven't gotten around to tweaking it

[stray tiger]

I also have mine PBO tuned at -30 on all cores

New Elgato capture products released today. Can now capture 4k 144hz or 2k 240hz - https://www.elgato.com/us/en/p/game-capture-4k-x

[harsh dove]

But not 4K 240hz

Sad

[stray tiger]

They did mention that was coming soon but would be twice as expensive

[cyan adder]

how comes the raptors sounds so thocky from your recording and jade sounds way more high pitched; almost clack lol

foam i guess

[harsh dove]

Ofc

[median spade]

how come you no use the mic that's floating above in this vid

[harsh dove]

Fuck that mic

[median spade]

that bad eh

[harsh dove]

No lol

It’s a shure

[median spade]

Oh man you gotta record the keyboard sounds with that

will be much more accurate

[rugged parcel]

Anyone here using the two extra standoffs in the Tofu60 Redux case? Is it nicer?

[harsh dove]

I’ll do it this weekend or sumn

[median spade]

also the jade salvation sounding a little pingy compared toyour past tests

what's different

[harsh dove]

I took out the foam/friction mount and also using module PCB so no more moleskin tape

[median spade]

Ahhh okay

[harsh dove]

I had already taken out the foam before but I still had the friction mount

And I think the moleskin tape helped too

Which I’ll apply again to my module PCB

[mental salmon]

Remember 1440p is different than 2K (2048x1080 and others)

[harsh dove]

Also remember 3440x1440 is different than 2k

[uncut musk]

what do you guys do with yalls post cards yall get

[harsh dove]

From wooting?

[uncut musk]

ye

[harsh dove]

Leave em in the box

[median spade]

I like to eat them myself

get some fiber in

[stray tiger]

Blue is SDR and green is HDR

[harsh dove]

And what is this signifying

[waxen bane]

1440p is 2k+

So people just say 2k

what’s wrong with calling 1440p 2k, ig it’s technically closer to 3k

[vestal plinth]

best stock lube stat someone lmk

[marsh saffron]

why not just call it 1440p

[bronze grove]

Because that's too weird.

TV industry signed a deal with the devil, when they coined the term 4K.

So now normies will refer to 1080P as 1K, 1440P as 2K often. Because it maths for their brains.

[waxen bane]

well if you say 2160p no one thinks of 4k

they think 2k but in reality it's 3840x2160

[harsh dove]

Technically

It’s 4096x2160

That’s true 4K

[median spade]

it's also called 4k as it's exactly 4x more pixels than 1080p

[harsh dove]

Consumer media uses 3840x2160, cinema uses native 4K

[waxen bane]

that's not 16:9 tho

[harsh dove]

^^

[waxen bane]

cinema uses what?

[harsh dove]

4096x2160

Aka DCI 4K

[waxen bane]

yeah i'm getting confused bc I've heard of that being used for digital cinema but going by aspect ratios gives different resolutions

I never thought about it until now but 4096x2160 is nearly 2:1

[hard sapphire]

I want to hear more people's jades

[mental salmon]

Because 2K is just a different resolution than 1440p, 1440p is also called 2.5K which is not widely used term

[devout torrent]

I have gone full big brain and flashed vxe atk68 fw on higround now

just so I can remap caps lock to control

but wooting still feels better

higround is so trash

[mental salmon]

2K is a category of resolutions, includes 2048x1080 and:

2k is a game

@quiet bay, tested the films, easy to install but as you mentioned, switch sound tends to be clackier

[harsh dove]

I’ll drop more sound test this weekend

Gonna do some modding

@hard sapphire

You could also search jades in this channel and probably find some videos

Also can find my old videos

[hard sapphire]

sounds good 👍🏻

[sonic tide]

Where should I put these thing on the alumaze?

[gloomy stratus]

tofu60 case foam or wooting case foam, which do u guys prefer?

[uncut musk]

standoffs

[bronze grove]

On the standoffs on the case. They help cushion the PCB a bit when it's all screwed in.

[uncut musk]

id try both and see which one you like better

[limber raptor]

really gotta press down to get these switches to snap into place

[uncut musk]

not at the same time tho lol

[sonic tide]

Thanks

[neon kestrel]

Okay DAMN lubing is no joke in difference, i might have overdone a few keys but i hope it will settle overtime its not that bad

[bronze grove]

Yeah give it a day and see how it feels.

You do have to work it in a bit.

Easy to pull out a couple of switches and dry off a bit of lube or add more.

[neon kestrel]

It sounds like ceramic almost but it took so long, i can see why its worth it tho

Ye worst case scenario ill do that

[peak geode]

time to pick up my board from the mail 🙂

finally finished with classes

[harsh dove]

Noice

I bought a bunch of stuff I didn’t need for my module lol

[uncut musk]

general is a war zone rn

[limber raptor]

The center one is not used for the 60HE, so you can leave that one out.

oh its not? reading before just doing is good

[uncut musk]

yeah the middle isnt for the 60he

[harsh dove]

Nah that’s just normal Eso

He’s always like that with people lol

[uncut musk]

people dont read the rules either lol, stg they are always pinging the admins

[harsh dove]

Yeah

Rules are like terms of service

No one reads them

[limber raptor]

discord etiquette evades some folks

[halcyon sparrow]

@stray tiger hey big dawg what lube do you recommend for lubing a wootings stabs

[bronze grove]

And they cry when their accounts are banned in both cases 😄

[harsh dove]

Literally

[mental salmon]

I missed who received a permaban

[harsh dove]

“What did I do wrong?!?!?”

[uncut musk]

i think the general consensus is dielectric grease for stab wires, and then 205g0 for housing. https://youtu.be/vxHb6CJc9V8?si=Phkv8f6idNNxSMs2

@halcyon sparrow, check that video is really good, that was also the recommendation from father

This itty bitty thing is so tiny. Tiny little standoff

[halcyon sparrow]

Do you have an he or module?

[limber raptor]

the module

[halcyon sparrow]

Isnt there a whole that lines up?

[sonic tide]

which screws do i use for the alumaze? The gray or the white one?

[bronze grove]

Whichever you prefer.

[sonic tide]

Got it

[limber raptor]

for the center?

[bronze grove]

White go well with the white PC plate.

[halcyon sparrow]

When I build mine I had a middle screw in my case

[limber raptor]

yah looks like middle of module has a standoff

[halcyon sparrow]

Is that not on the same location (I know we had different cases)

[limber raptor]

have the metal tink tink alumaze from wooting

looks like its the same spot and is a center post

[halcyon sparrow]

I assume leaving it unmounted would created a different sound and feel with the flex so It could be preference but don't quote me on that I'm not super experienced with custom keyboards

[limber raptor]

i believe i watched a video from badseed tech that went over minor variant differences

Ay there you go

[wary elm]

Any cheap keycaps where the letter is on the side of the keycap?

[harsh dove]

Amazon

[halcyon sparrow]

Or AliExpress if you don't care about waiting

[limber raptor]

Xvx... Side print key caps

Are really pretty

Mainly pointing that out since it's the most recent I saw

I'm a fan of the gradiant color shift

[median spade]

spacebar sounds better without the mounting point below imo

[harsh dove]

^^

Less screws the better is the way I see it

[median spade]

indeed

[pastel ice]

does the l45 wooble?

[harsh dove]

Yes

[quiet bay]

both l60s and l45s have wobble

[halcyon sparrow]

With my experience I truly haven't noticed it

[median spade]

they do indeed wobble

just how it be

[normal schooner]

your seat is wobbling

[pastel ice]

tnx. i wish, switchfilms will fix this 😄

[halcyon sparrow]

I've heard of mods with mutating a switch but I never was like damn, I hate how my finger wiggles while typing

[quiet bay]

you're right

[normal schooner]

hopefully lekkers 2.0 solve the wobble issue. I believe in calder and kevin
