[median spade]

on the top housing*

so no go on that

[polar girder]

Gross

lol

Yeah screw that

Screw jades. Amirite?!??

[median spade]

no

that's lekkers

think I solved the "rattle" noisethat even persisted on the jades

[bitter valve]

Nah, that’s bs, and new batch lekkers are decent honestly

[median spade]

huh

[bitter valve]

I mean, I will let you know more once I’ll my module assembled, but so far just wasted a ton of time with stabs lol

[median spade]

Im so confused

I was saying i did the switch tap mode on top housing of my jades

it added tick when i did that

[bitter valve]

Oh, thought you were talking about tape mod on lekkers, my bad

[median spade]

oh yeah no

probs because top housing alreday really tight on the jades

[bitter valve]

Yeah, might be, or tape causing the stem to tick when it makes contact with it

[untold wigeon]

Any keycap brand recommendation?

[stray tiger]

Whats your budget?

[untold wigeon]

50-100€

[median spade]

DCX from drop

[stray tiger]

Lots of quality PBT stuff in that range. Look into pbtfans https://kbdfans.com/collections/pbtfans

[untold wigeon]

Thanks! I will check both

[wet hazel]

O-Rings on the keycaps reduce the noise quite a bit and they are cheap, but also change the feeling too

[bitter valve]

Not a fan at all, I think I’ll just use lekkers if I won’t be satisfied with modded jades

My biggest issue rn is stabs and the fact that I don’t have enough time to invest in it

[tender sand]

I am thinking about buying new key caps for the 60he, anyone got any recommendations on a good set?

[waxen bane]

Guys wtf is this and why is it so good https://en.akkogear.com/product/akko-mod007b-he-mechanical-keyboard/

anyone know if the wireless stuff actually works well with he switches

[agile grove]

im assuming it probably wouldnt run as well as a 60he since its wireless and im not sure how great the battery life would be

however wireless has gotten good enough to have a negligible performance impact

[harsh dove]

Can’t imagine battery life being good with something like tachyon mode

[agile grove]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D3eJCBzFRoM

[harsh dove]

Can’t imagine battery life being good with something like tachyon mode

If that board had a feature like that

[little ledge]

do foam switch pads interfere with the performance of switches at all?

[agile grove]

they can

[little ledge]

man :/

[ionic heath]

Well now Im confused

I was told nobody had issues with switch pads

Just that its best to reset the board and let it recalibrate

[little ledge]

i seeeeeee

[tawdry tree]

just unplug and replug will do. Most switch pads are thin enough to not cause any issues that a recalibration can’t fix.

[ionic heath]

Right

I’ve got .5 mm

[tawdry tree]

Which can compress to 0.25mm I presume, so that shouldn’t be a problem at all.

[ionic heath]

Yeah tomorrow my switches come in so ill know for sure then

[lofty solar]

anyone have sound test of carbon fibre plate with jade switches?

[blazing saffron]

Is it ok to lube the switches with the factory lube on them?

[ionic heath]

Yup

[blazing saffron]

Ok

[median spade]

Lubing the top housing of the jades did in fact do a lot

They sound like nothing now which issn't a bad thing I suppose

Nice and muted

[gaunt linden]

Rails?

[polar girder]

Putting this in my calendar btw

[median spade]

All i did was psread the amount on the rails already out

since there was a good amount, and consistent on each one

Here you guys go

[polar girder]

Dual rail box stem HE when??

[harsh dove]

Why you want box stems

[median spade]

They kind of sound like nothing now but i'll take it versus the former

[polar girder]

Why not

Doesn’t help?

[harsh dove]

Cause

[polar girder]

I’ve never had them idk. Just a theory and excitement for more HE lol

[median spade]

Listen to the sound test btw as you were asking to let you know what the difference is for top housing and not with jades

[fluid ravine]

i think i want the l70 and l80

[polar girder]

I want l20

[polar girder]

Ok will have to listen when at computer. Ty

L20 sounds like a dream come true NGL

I wonder if the stem material/construction starts to matter more with lighter weight springs.

[median spade]

L20

bro you breathe on those and they would move

[polar girder]

Hell yeah lol

L20 actuate at 1.0mm

Would like to try both ends of the spectrum. Also try a L100 on .1mm lol

[hard sapphire]

does filming HE do anything at all

[median spade]

not really

[glossy pagoda]

Might get a little shy

[bronze grove]

I was SO close to making that joke earlier.

https://tenor.com/view/harry-potter-dumbledore-clap-clapping-applause-gif-3843673

[normal schooner]

you both are childs

[glossy pagoda]

[fluid ravine]

:)

[uncut musk]

i feel like the lube is like "draining" out of my lekkers lol

[untold wigeon]

feel the same way bout my jades

[harsh dove]

Too much lube brothers

If your PCB looks like it had a nighttime accident, you overlubed lol

[molten crest]

Is 60HE compatible with Tofu 60 Redux case?

[harsh dove]

Yeah

[molten crest]

is that "yeah" to me?

[harsh dove]

Yes

[molten crest]

alright, thanks

out of stock

[untold wigeon]

rocking the fac lube lmao

more lube on the pcb the smoother the performance??

[harsh dove]

Oh, well it happens tbh lol after lube settles

Eh not really lol

[untold wigeon]

[harsh dove]

For example I had dielectric grease on my PCB right under my stab stem and it made my stab feel sticky until I wiped it off

Albeit grease is stickier than lube but still

lol

[untold wigeon]

yea but if the pcb is lubed you should perform better in games

[polar girder]

Lube should go on clear imo

Not painted on

[harsh dove]

Nah what you do is paint a layer on like you’re Bob Ross, let it dry and add a few more layers

[polar girder]

“A masterpiece.”

[median spade]

They’re all in stock on kbdfans?

[waxen bane]

Is that the same with lube

ain no way

We’re gonna have to do lubing cycles

[polar girder]

Yeah a good lube job takes about a week to apply all the necessary coats

This is just a joke. DONT do this.

[static tendon]

Hey @grave glen feel free to post your question here, this way we can take a closer look into the issue

[grave glen]

Thanks… I just got my Wooting 60HE+ Module and I have no idea what i’m doing in terms of setup… I can’t find any guides online and I don’t know what all the “accessories” it came with are meant for, or how to set them up in the keyboard… If you have experience with building keyboards or think you could help me, please shoot me a dm… Thanks!

[static tendon]

Of course, I would recommend to get started with unpacking the necessary items and have the case/module prepared

Once done, ping back here and we can proceed with next steps

[grave glen]

Oh and specifically, for now at least, what’s the difference between the black and white o rings that it came with? And where/how do I install them..?

[bronze grove]

I do mention that in the guide I linked elsewhere for you. 🙂

[waxen bane]

put module inside case put switch in module put keycap on switch done

[grave glen]

Okay, I didn’t see it, I’ll check again

[static tendon]

I had the same question but these are kinda like o rings. You don't require to install them but some people do because it helps make a slightly softer typing feel

I didn't use them for example^

[grave glen]

Ok… where do I install them? I’ve hardly even watched content on custom keyboards so I hardly know what an o ring is lmao

[bronze grove]

You take the case, you put in the standoffs you want, you insert the case foam, you put the rings onto the standoffs, then you screw the module into the case.

[static tendon]

(Incorrect) Here is a video that can help. But they do look a little different from this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tlPX6gYSxyU&t=42s

[harsh dove]

White and black 0-rings are foam and silicone o rings for the case standoffs

[bronze grove]

Uh no.

That is a completely different method.

[static tendon]

Interesting, is there an updated video for one of these installations?

[bronze grove]

You put - the rings - on the standoffs.

[grave glen]

OH, which one would be foam?

[bronze grove]

That's... that's it.

[harsh dove]

Yeah similar concept but different procedure

[static tendon]

Got it

[grave glen]

Is the white or the black o ring foam? Do you know? I honestly can’t tell a difference…

[bronze grove]

Use either sheet.

[harsh dove]

White is the silicone I believe but either one works

[grave glen]

Ok, thanks

[static tendon]

To confirm, would this method replace the burger mount mod?

[bronze grove]

Yes.

[static tendon]

Got it, that makes more sense. It does kind of remind me of KBD's silicone stand off cover in a way

[bronze grove]

Yep. Same thought process

[stark osprey]

That's a good design

[static tendon]

Yeah it is! Wish cases would just come with something similar (like the tofu)

Alumaze60 has their own thing going

[grave glen]

Would you mind helping me in dms for a bit?

[stark osprey]

Yeah for sure, love my Alumaze. Glad it came with the silicone+foam rings, but that KBD design is chef's kiss

[bronze grove]

I don't do DMs. It's also 1AM here, and I am definitely headed to bed.

[grave glen]

Oh sorry, ok. Good night!

[static tendon]

I'd suggest if you have additional questions, just continue pasting them here. The community here is very helpful

[grave glen]

I apologize for the absolutely terrible quality of the picture but… Is this right? I put the o ring on the bottom side of the PCB directly, on the the screw hole.

[static tendon]

@grave glen from my understanding you can probably get away with putting it on the PCB but it may be easier to place them on the stand offs like the picture Mansen included here

[grave glen]

Ok, thanks

[grave glen]

I’m looking at the website the other dude gave me and it says only 4 of the 6 standoffs are installed? I’m not seeing 2 other ones I can install… Do I need them?

[bronze grove]

You have the Alumaze case?

[grave glen]

Yes

[bronze grove]

The standoffs are in a bag. You have to screw them in yourself with fingers

[grave glen]

Oh, I just don’t see them I guess, are they needed?

[bronze grove]

Purely optional

[grave glen]

Ok, thanks

[harsh dove]

I own both designs and tbh I didn’t really feel like they did much compared to burger mount or friction mount but that’s just my experience

[stark osprey]

Youre referring to the KBD silicone standoffs?

[harsh dove]

I do think the ones that now come with the wooting are better than the KDBFans one personally

[stark osprey]

I wouldn't expect them to have much difference, I just prefer the silicone built into the standoff itself rather than having it loose

[harsh dove]

Yeah the KDBfans ones are really thin imo and easily get shredded by the screws

If you screw in too tight

[stark osprey]

That's funny cause I shredded the wooting ones

[harsh dove]

Lmao

Hence why I prefer traditional burger mount or friction mount over both of them

[stark osprey]

I suppose if they thickened or made the KBD one more durable that would be ideal for me.

[harsh dove]

Yeah

[uncut musk]

i havent even touched like 90% of the switches

[harsh dove]

Well you made them cry

Lube Tears

[uncut musk]

also not really draining

lol

yeah i made them cry, to much valorant

[static tendon]

Do you typically screw down your PCB pretty tight? I try to just barely tighten it down, helps with the typing feel

[median spade]

jades on amazon now

[static tendon]

I wish the Tofu was on Amazon

Or even better, the salvation 😮

[median spade]

yeah salvation would never

[static tendon]

Did you end up getting your salvation?

[median spade]

yeah im using it right now

[static tendon]

Shooot, got any photos?

[uncut musk]

I got the job so keyboard spending my start back up again

[median spade]

just this boring one for now but here you go

[static tendon]

Beautiful

[static tendon]

Is this that soul black color? It almost looks like a very dark red

[median spade]

Yeah it's the soul black, and I think my camera was just pulling the blue from the mousepad

so there is a red tint on the image

[static tendon]

Got it

[harsh dove]

No but I guess I did whenever I used those KDB Standoff covers

[median spade]

cam did you hear my lubed top housing jades btw

[static tendon]

I see

[harsh dove]

Who would wanna hear that

[median spade]

it worked to get rid the sound all HE have but now they are really quiet

also this pom plate has such tight tolerances had to use stock stab for spacebar

[static tendon]

https://www.reddit.com/r/mechmarket/comments/1alfntt/caon_h_salvun_salvation_60_keyboard_apple/ - a Red Salvation case posted 3 hours ago but it's red if anyone is interested - $148.59 USD

Very good price

[uncut musk]

sm1 alr dmd lol

some WANTS it

[static tendon]

@median spade when "PM"ing people on reddit would you happen to know if you just include the sellers name in a chat? Is that how you would typically "PM" someone?

[harsh dove]

Wonder if it’s the Ecoat red or not

If it’s not then , psssh

https://tenor.com/view/unreall-gif-15193874

[static tendon]

Is there a way to tell from the photo?

[harsh dove]

@stray tiger she’s here

Probably wait till the weekend tho

[harsh dove]

https://tenor.com/view/pssshh-psh-ed-bassmaster-chip-diamond-whatever-gif-16197643

[stray tiger]

Did you try factory resetting yet? I asked in the internal support chat and the guy who responded said his two boards measured 4.23w vs 4.18w with the module slightly higher bit not significantly

[median spade]

Yeah you just comment PM, and then directly message after that

[harsh dove]

That’s what I measured just now tbh, not the exact same numbers as him but yeah module was slightly higher

Lemme try doing FR

Haven’t done that

[harsh dove]

It’s not ECoat Red who cares

[hard sapphire]

Is that including the stabs?

[tawdry tree]

Yes.

[static tendon]

Hmm not sure if it's a reddit problem but I reached out twice, then a 3rd time on my phone. My phone eventually went through but took forever to do so

[median spade]

don't do chat

no one ever looks at chat me included

[hard sapphire]

So I ordered 60 jades so I should be good?

[median spade]

no

you need 61

[tawdry tree]

You need 61.

[median spade]

but order like 5 more

[tawdry tree]

I thought they only came in 35pcs

[hard sapphire]

Because the stabs use switches?

[median spade]

us store has them at 10 pack

zkeebs

[tawdry tree]

Every key uses 1 switch.

[stray tiger]

Lots of resellers selling in 10packs

[bitter valve]

Mine came in a box of 70

[hard sapphire]

Oh I see ty

[median spade]

@tawdry tree btw that HE sound I said I can even hear on the jades well i fixed it

[tawdry tree]

Told u

😉

[median spade]

top housing ye

for jades at least

[bitter valve]

So what are your mods on jades?

[median spade]

lubed top housing, just spread the lube that was on stems around

spring swapped to L60 spring

they are very quiet now

[bitter valve]

Cool, might do the same, have both also, but out of the box lekkers seem quieter (?)

[median spade]

yeah lekkers when lubed kind of become very muted

since the newer stuff comes lubed and all

here is another example of how much they changed, maybe almost too much

[bitter valve]

Hmm, I like that, actually

[harsh dove]

Seems to be good after FR @stray tiger

[bitter valve]

Heavily affected by the case here

[median spade]

whoops disregard that one

[stray tiger]

Great news, lmk if it changes.

[median spade]

that was no desk mat

fixed

so now they are one to one outside the mods

[harsh dove]

Yeah I'll keep you posted

[median spade]

cam do you have the outer post/gasket things in on your salvation

[harsh dove]

The ones on the far right and left?

[median spade]

yeah

[bitter valve]

Interesting, sounds good, but that bottom out and release…

[harsh dove]

No, wooting doesn't need those

[median spade]

well yeah it' snot needed ever really

but was just curious if you tried it

[harsh dove]

Nah I didn't bother

[median spade]

I can't try it as the guy lost it who I bought it from

[harsh dove]

yikes lol

[median spade]

I don't blame him as like no one uses that mount

but yeah

[harsh dove]

I swear I tuned my TX AP Clip Ins faster than my TX AP Plate Mounts

Accidentally overlubed my left stab on spacebar and the grease went onto the PCB and was causing it to stick lol

[median spade]

if lubing the top housing on my jades did this much did anyone try the lekkers??

[harsh dove]

yeah

[blazing saffron]

my spcaebar physically will not come back up. i have to pull the cap off with a remover

[harsh dove]

most of us lekker modders lubed top housing

[median spade]

the more you know

did it have same effect or stil had the chatter/rattle whatever

[harsh dove]

Nah it helps

[median spade]

these jades are now muted yes, but also clean af

[harsh dove]

Doesn't get rid of it

just reduced

[median spade]

the sound i was talking about is gone now

[harsh dove]

You making me wanna go Bob Ross on my jades

[blazing saffron]

can anyone help?

[harsh dove]

They're the only HE switches I haven't fully hand lubed

All the rest I lubed

[median spade]

fair enough

[harsh dove]

( I have L60, L45, Raptors, Jades, and now KS20u Dual Rail otw)

[median spade]

what stabs and what plate

[static tendon]

I thought that's what PM was, just a seperate private chat?

[harsh dove]

I would get the Akko Cream Yellows and Kailh Sakura Pinks but they aren't compatible with Wooting

[blazing saffron]

deafulat

default

[median spade]

probs overlubed

stock keycaps too?

[blazing saffron]

yes

[median spade]

yeah might just need to force it up and down manually

[harsh dove]

Did you take the stabs apart at all?

[median spade]

till it thins out the lube

[paper basalt]

There are times when my space bar and backspace key will be pressed and not respond, and then I can just unplug the cable again, how do I fix this situation.

[median spade]

i doubt the ks20u will sound much differnet but will be interested to see what you think

[harsh dove]

@blazing saffron

[median spade]

gateron needs to change the housing material too before we get some really good sounding switches

[blazing saffron]

yes

[harsh dove]

I doubt it too tbh but I'm mainly interested to see how much wobble is reduced

that way people don't have to stem swap or do switch tape mod

[median spade]

currently the lekkers, jades, etc are all using the "budget" hsouing composition that gateron uses for their switches

[agile grove]

you might be pressing those keys when plugging the keyboard in, if thats not the issue then I'd recommend you open up a post in #1019755933959733258

[median spade]

wire might be popped out of the housing

[harsh dove]

I wanna see a Oil Kings HE lol

[median spade]

hell yeah

[agile grove]

that would be crazy

[median spade]

or even the other one im losing my thoughts on right now

[harsh dove]

Would be amazing

[median spade]

they are black, blue, red, etc

[harsh dove]

I think I know which ones you mean

[median spade]

inks

there we go

[harsh dove]

Lemme see if I can find

Inks

yeah

[median spade]

CJ housing would be good to

but yeah the current setup is just their budget housing

kind of annoying

[harsh dove]

They waiting for it to go mainstream real hard

they gonna be late tho

lol

[median spade]

such is the gateron way

[harsh dove]

yeah

[median spade]

soon as jwk, bsun, geon,etc gets some more skin in the game

it's over for gateron

(hopefully wooting will support those when it does happen )

[harsh dove]

I think the Raptors were a good first step for Geon but they basically Lekkers still

[harsh dove]

I remember Calder saying something about adding compatible switches to the site

[median spade]

with all the over stuff that geon has rn surprised he didn't do long pole to start

[median spade]

hmm completely remove the stab and then take a look at them

usually that is when tolerances are too tight or too much lube

[harsh dove]

Did you disassemble the stabs at all or have you left them as is ?

[blazing saffron]

i took the wire out of the housing to lube

[harsh dove]

Did you possibly put the wire back in incorrectly?

[median spade]

Yeah that's what I was thinkign earlier

housing could be backwards or the stab is in the top hole instead

[harsh dove]

yeah

[harsh dove]

It's gonna be hard to tell if that's the case based on pics tbh, you're going to have to take it apart again and see

[median spade]

^

take it from the front where the wire inserst

this is not really showing us that much

[harsh dove]

I mean, looks correct

[blazing saffron]

hopefully i didnt fuck the switch up but i put the switch into the kap before i put the kap into the board and it worked

[median spade]

yeah doesn't look wrong from what i can see here at least

[blazing saffron]

god man now my backspace isnt working

@median spade

[median spade]

i would take them apart and then try reassemble them

or see with them removed if you can move the stem up and down

[blazing saffron]

should you be able to

[median spade]

yeah

if it's not moving with your hand or tweezers then the wire or something is in wrong

[blazing saffron]

i got it

fiannly

i cant spell

thank you 😀

[harsh dove]

Nice

I just finished my stabs on my other board and they sound amazing now (to me)

[polar girder]

Which stabs on what board 🤓

[harsh dove]

https://tenor.com/view/sponge-nerd-spongebob-bora-nerd-spongebob-bora-book-jimindvd-gif-gif-25285919

Regular Wooting60HE TX AP Plate Mount

[polar girder]

Ah nice

[willow bronze]

how much lube did you put in it

less is more, then add with syringe to tune

[static tendon]

Tempting to pre order this

[harsh dove]

You watch any reviews or build vids?

[static tendon]

Seems to be far too new for any videos or real updates on this case

[blazing saffron]

enough to make the guide rails or whatever shiny

i didnt lube anything else

[paper bloom]

From what ik its the same as the tofu design but just holes in it

To make it look cool

[static tendon]

Would anyone here by any chance have their module box and the parts that came inside it?
I might have mixed my screws with the module/Alumaze60

I can't remember if these screws came with the Alumaze60 or with that module

[paper bloom]

Alumaze

[static tendon]

Thanks! Would you happen to know if any screws came with the module?

I should have kept them seperate when unboxing

[paper bloom]

White screws

Silicone sticker

[paper bloom]

Give or take i am counting 7

For those

[static tendon]

Got it, these are with the module

[paper bloom]

Yes

[static tendon]

This too?

[paper bloom]

Poron Foam and plate foam

Yes

[static tendon]

Yes, both are there perfect

[paper bloom]

I meant this comes with the module

Sorry i just woke up my brains a bit rattled rn

[static tendon]

Then I think this is the last bit but I think these came with the Alumaze?

[paper bloom]

Black O ring is the alumaze

The sticker shld be white for the module

[static tendon]

Thank you big time @paper bloom huge help seriously

[paper bloom]

Happy 2 help

I am rn sorting out what to buy from wooting @static tendon

@static tendon Forgot to add on

Make sure to add the brass nut for the space bar stand off and make sure that the screws are well seated in

(Idk about the alumaze about the brass nut space bar stand off but just make sure to have it sorted JUST INCASE b4 you put it in or put the module in b4 doing so i am unsure

Cuz for my tofu60 redux i needed to have it to screw it into 5 places

[median spade]

[static tendon]

@paper bloom also I do seem to have an extra packet here that's empty. Was there anything else that came with that Alumaze, I'll send a pic here too

Here, I had screws and stand offs in a packet then this other one was empty. I can’t remember what was in it. I don’t think it was for the module either

[static tendon]

Ohhh it’s for the silicone strap

[harsh dove]

Yessir

[paper bloom]

Happy 2 help

[static tendon]

The screws and the silicone I think were in there

[paper bloom]

Yea then thats for the alumaze

[static tendon]

Yeah that’s why that little packet is empty

[paper bloom]

They've responded to me and now i shall get a 500 dollar worth of wooting products

[harsh dove]

Damn they gave me 1000 dollar worth of wooting products

[paper bloom]

I mean i dont even need a prebuilt but ima give it off as a gift to someone ik that does gaming

[paper bloom]

Damn thats some stuff

[static tendon]

I'm likely gonna end up returning this Alumaze and go for a Tofu or a Holy60. Best case scenario I would drop all these and go salvation but I think i'll get a deal on the case so I'll pass up on it for now. Once that deal comes by at 250 I'd very likely pick up the salvation in the e white color

[harsh dove]

Yeah thatd be cool

[harsh dove]

I'm joking lol

[paper bloom]

i know lol

[harsh dove]

[paper bloom]

Id say keep the alumaze

[static tendon]

Any particular reason?

[paper bloom]

and go for the Tofu

Flexxing

And you can change it out to a lower profile anytime soon

[static tendon]

Just keep both huh

[paper bloom]

Yea if not you want an endgame

[static tendon]

Naw I gotta keep one at least for now. It's gonna get replaced by the salavation one day regardless once I get that deal

[paper bloom]

Just pick one and instead of returning one see if u got anyone who does keyboards and u can gift it to them as a gift

[harsh dove]

Endgame is 80HE

lol

[paper bloom]

My endgame isnt even the 80HE im waiting on the 65%

LOL

[feral jacinth]

Hey everyone, I just got a tofu redux 60 case for my wooting 60he. The screw next to the spacebar wont go in despite my best efforts: using the screw that came with the wooting, and the two other ones that come with the tofu. Any ideas as to why that is? or if it would be okay to have just the 4 screws (2 on each side) screwed in without the bottom one next to the spacebar. Thanks!

[harsh dove]

Wooting65?

[static tendon]

Haha not for me, TKL aint my style. I'm 60-65% only

[paper bloom]

Use the brass nut

on the space bar stand off

insert the module

then screw it in

[static tendon]

I still would prob prefer the 60% over 65% due to the symmetry

[harsh dove]

I'm gonna buy it cause I'm him

[paper bloom]

YEE Wooting65

idm getting the 80% tho

I think the Tofu offers so much more than the alumaze. This concrete gray bothers me. It's like a dirty white color but this is a cool case, cannot deny that. I love the strap as well

I would go E-white with the Tofu

[tawdry tree]

64% > 65%

[agile grove]

the alumaze white is coming soon™️

[paper bloom]

if not a 70%

[harsh dove]

40% or remove yourself

[paper bloom]

10%

Or nothing

[harsh dove]

2%

[static tendon]

Yeah I heard about it from someone, so that's actually true? Where was this update made originally?

[harsh dove]

the 2% would be Alt + F4

[feral jacinth]

It still wont go in 😅

[paper bloom]

To be fair im fine with any color so long as it isnt too bright

[paper bloom]

WHAT

[static tendon]

I love vibrant colors personally

[harsh dove]

That's what- nevermind

[paper bloom]

You sure youre using the right one?

[agile grove]

from this very server my good sir! #📦│batch_updates message

[paper bloom]

Use the brass nut from the tofu and screw it in

[median spade]

cam you have alumaze too right

[harsh dove]

No

[static tendon]

Like if I ever bring my keyboard somewhere (if ever) I think it's cool to have something that stands out. Satisfying

[median spade]

is that not what you have your olivia on

[paper bloom]

IMAGINE IF WE HAVE HOLOGRAPHIC KEYBOARDS FROM WOOTING!

[harsh dove]

https://tenor.com/view/toddlers-and-tiaras-big-grin-excited-girl-giddy-smile-gif-9689369815152198607

[feral jacinth]

Yeah! I tried and its not going in. If it helps at all I have the EU version of the keyboard so I dont know if that changes anything

[paper bloom]

Shldnt change

[agile grove]

it shouldnt

[paper bloom]

Take a pic of your

Tofu

[agile grove]

take a pic of your case

[paper bloom]

and lemme see the stand off

[harsh dove]

maybe

[paper bloom]

I saw your alumaze on stream

[static tendon]

Oh that's actually bummer I wasn't aware when purchasing my module, I don't think it was announced at that time. Otherwise I 100% would've picked up the alumaze60 in white

[harsh dove]

No you didn't

[agile grove]

it wasnt annouced yet then

[static tendon]

Regardless, I think the Tofu is heftier and is more of what i'm aiming for but darn that's nice to have white alumaze60

[paper bloom]

Fine you got me there

White

[static tendon]

Yeah exactly, it is what it is

[harsh dove]

here

[paper bloom]

I have the tofu case

i orig wanted to get the LED paneled cyberspace case

[static tendon]

@harsh dove any particular reason you went for the alumaze over the Tofu for a secondary case?

[harsh dove]

Cause bro

Wooting

[static tendon]

Got any pics?

[paper bloom]

But i realized the module does not have the daughterboard and the case itself is

[feral jacinth]

I dont know if this helps at all lol

[median spade]

I feel like the keycaps are not this deep on the alumaze

[paper bloom]

WTF? SO MUCH HAIR

[feral jacinth]

LOL

yeah I got a dog

[harsh dove]

Bro likes em hairy

[paper bloom]

@feral jacinth TAKE THE MODULE OUT

SCREW THE BRASS NUT IN

[harsh dove]

I feel it

[paper bloom]

Yea i got it

[static tendon]

Just to make sure, that brass nut is only on the redux right?

[feral jacinth]

like take the whole pcb out of the tofu and screw the brass nut in first?

[paper bloom]

its in every Case

[paper bloom]

Take the PCB out

[harsh dove]

See if yall got black PC plates, wouldn't have to even worry

[paper bloom]

Then screw it in

[feral jacinth]

got it I’ll try it right now

[paper bloom]

@static tendon

i have a coiled cable from wooting but ima use that when i move houses

[median spade]

black pom > black pc

[harsh dove]

You're a black pom

[median spade]

[paper bloom]

Actually i got a silver one

[harsh dove]

Noice

[paper bloom]

For case

But i decided to run black because its easier for me to see the dirt so i can scrub it off

[harsh dove]

What if the dirt is black tho?

[paper bloom]

Touch and feel, the old saying goes fuck around and find out

[static tendon]

I must not be following cause I don't think my alumaze60 came with any additional screws like that. I left off both my stand off screws, only 4 screws are currently in (along with the little brass weight on the left side of the case)

[harsh dove]

https://tenor.com/view/doug-maclean-whiteboard-fa-fo-f-around-find-out-gif-27532870

[paper bloom]

The brass nut

is provided in every case

You buy from

Thats what i meant

installed or uninstalled

[harsh dove]

Tbf I think dirt is more easily seen on white objects but the opposite for dust

[static tendon]

Gotcha, yeah both of mine is uninstalled but the brass weight is fully secured with the screw. Won't fall off

[paper bloom]

Depends really

If you drip tomato sauce on your black case you can still see it with light reflection

[static tendon]

Looks good, makes me want a redux even more

[paper bloom]

Yea

[paper bloom]

I got a silver one

If u wanna see

but the keycaps from it is cheap and it isnt so good

[static tendon]

I'm still glad I was able to test out this alumaze60 though

[paper bloom]

Im legit building a 3rd board for someone else

and im using the prebuilt to strip some of the stuff

Such as the spill resistant PCBA

[harsh dove]

I think it's easier to notice the inconsistencies with a darker object against a white background vs a darker object against a black background @paper bloom

[paper bloom]

and the SSG steel palte

plate*

[static tendon]

But it's light, color is weird, doesn't match what I have, the price is a bit high for what you get. I think Redux has more, heavier weight, somewhat cheaper (by a local seller near me) and I like the color options more (still going for white though)

[paper bloom]

Depends on what color of the shade is

If u run a 2 Tone keyboard and if u drop the same shade of white paint onto your keyboard case

You legit cant tell the difference unless it is upclose

[harsh dove]

Yeah ofc but if were going with dirt, id usually assume darker

[static tendon]

In the meantime I'll plop my module into my ducky mecha case as a temporary solution until I recieve my redux, which isn't currently in stock btw

[paper bloom]

WAIT

WHAT

ITS SOLD OUT?

O its the E-Coating white nvm

[paper bloom]

Ye

[static tendon]

Love this

[static tendon]

From divinikey yes, not from KBDfans

When the white version restocked, they didn't restock the brass weight, and I'm not gonna pay for shipping twice to get the brass weight at a later time LOL

[paper bloom]

Ive suffered harder than you in more ways than one

[static tendon]

Here https://divinikey.com/products/kbdfans-tofu60-redux-case?variant=40495037186113

[paper bloom]

The system from kbdfans's cart broke

[harsh dove]

why the 2 black stabs

[paper bloom]

On me and the brass weight was gone when i made initial payment

[paper bloom]

This isnt his pic

He got it from a builder or something i think

[static tendon]

Dang, I didn't even catch that initially, no idea why his is like that LOL

[paper bloom]

Then the support talked told me to get it from aliexpress

[static tendon]

Yeah it's not mine

[paper bloom]

Since it is cheaper

[static tendon]

From this video here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tj3l-ZPw-XM

[paper bloom]

So i did so and waited for 1 week and i got it

[static tendon]

Ohhh the redux or the weight?

[paper bloom]

Weight

Brass weight is cheaper with aliexpress

[static tendon]

I think I actually remember someone mentioning that, I think it was you. That was some time ago

[paper bloom]

But idk about shipping to you tho

[paper bloom]

Yea it was

[static tendon]

I got it, still an option then

[teal parcel]

@harsh dove you think we'll be able to film the ks's? or you think the rail will be too thick

[static tendon]

Happen to have that link for the brass weight on the Tofu Redux?

From Ali Express?

[paper bloom]

Yea i got it

But there are no gurantee's if the product will come to you safe tho

https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005005913682460.html

@harsh dove Do you have the stock Wooting 60HE

By any chance?

[harsh dove]

Yeah

[paper bloom]

U know the spill resistant layer

[harsh dove]

Well its not stock anymore but yeah I have the regular one

[paper bloom]

Below the PORON foam?

[harsh dove]

Yeah

[paper bloom]

Can it be used for the module?

[harsh dove]

You mean the thin film on the PCB?

[paper bloom]

Below it

#6

Or is it an thin film?

[static tendon]

Yeah i'm aware, had ali express do that to me a couple times lol

[paper bloom]

I am not so sure but it shld be

[static tendon]

Perfect, I saved it just in case

[paper bloom]

Fyi you better make your orders quick also you can buy it from KBDFANS directly

[harsh dove]

Yeah you can't take that off as far as I'm aware

[paper bloom]

Wait what rlly?

[harsh dove]

and the module should be the same anyway

[static tendon]

Ooo actually I lied, says the item is no longer available!

[paper bloom]

I saw the anatomy of it, it looks like u can take it off

[static tendon]

I'm in no rush to purchase anything. If you weren't previously aware I waited like 8 months for the module to release, probably more

[paper bloom]

I BOUGHT A 2HE b4 the 60HE came out in 2 months

[harsh dove]

You'll have to show me what you're talking about on your board because "Spill Resistant PCBA" is referring to the entire PCB

[paper bloom]

OH

[static tendon]

Way before it was released LOL, but it was worth it. I love it. Still getting used to it. Even typing is off to me

[paper bloom]

Okay that makes sense

My brain rattled there for a min

mb mb

[harsh dove]

No worries

[paper bloom]

Cuz i thought it was extra layer or something and then i was thinking about tearing it apart

And just slap it into the module

LOOL

[static tendon]

Shoot no brass weight options at all off ali express

@harsh dove what switches are you running?

I was considering to use L60's for the spring weight, I have been having a lot of mis clicks and it's my 4th day using this keyboard consistantly

Wondering if that will help reduce that issue

[paper bloom]

Ive been running the L45's

Check the actuation cld be that

[static tendon]

Yeah they're amazing I just wonder if I'd type/play games better with a slightly heavier switch

[paper bloom]

Nae its still the same

[harsh dove]

Jades

[random quail]

l45 + geon raptor he frankenstein is insane i have to admit

[paper bloom]

but the endurance is different

[static tendon]

I accidently rest my hand on a key and move that direction in game and don't even notice it. I'm also very light handed which throws me off

[paper bloom]

Fraken jades and l45 sounds nice

[eager ore]

Hey there guys. My wooting 60HE just came today and I'm looking at keycap sets. I really like the look of this one I was wondering if it's compatible. https://deskr.co/collections/keycaps/products/blacktopocanyonkeycaps

I'm also wondering if there's any cable brand that people prefer.

[harsh dove]

I'm not sure tbh

[tawdry tree]

You can but KS-20/Lekker films aren’t widely available.

20Us will probably be as tight as 37Bs so filming those wouldn’t have any benefit.

It’d be worse to film them even.

[teal parcel]

alright sounds good, had some film laying around

[tawdry tree]

MX films won’t fit KS-20s

[paper bloom]

it is

Anything so long as the Cherry stems work and the size fitting

Youre good to go

[agile grove]

cable mod probably, but you have to be careful if you plan on using tachyon

[tired niche]

anyone here use the oring mod?

[agile grove]

which one

[median spade]

37B not compatible with 60he right

[tawdry tree]

Not compatible indeed. It’s almost the same design as the 20Us that’s why I referred to them.

[sullen salmon]

anyone have a guide somewhere that shows how to install a plate mounting kit into a plate?

[tawdry tree]

You mean stabilizers? I’d search on Youtube.

[sullen salmon]

na not stabilizers

i meant the stand offs for plates that have none

but i figured it out dw

[tired niche]

There’s more than one? I’m referring to the black oring from ringerkeys

[tawdry tree]

That’s gummy/friction mount. The small O rings are for burger mount.

Many people here use either.

[bitter valve]

They have brass. Legit just order and ping support to add brass weight. They will give you paypal account to pay. I ordered mine from Ali, because I had no idea. They said it was not possible for them to move orders between stores.

[static tendon]

So even if it’s out of stock, divinikey will still include the brass weight if I placed an order on a tofu redux?

[bitter valve]

Kbdfans

[static tendon]

Oh yeah, they’re usually always in stock. I’m talking about divinikey since they charge less for shipping

Like quite a bit less, makes it a much better purchase decision from my end

[bitter valve]

Ah, I see. Apologies then

[static tendon]

No worries, thank you for the response regardless

Anyone know how much it would typically cost if I painted a keyboard case?

Like a E-white color or something?

[untold wigeon]

Hey guys i got the he60+ module on the way but wondering if the gareron jades are usuable without any mods on this?

[tired niche]

Yes mostly usable with the exception of the stock stabilizer not being able to properly accommodate for your key caps. You may need to get TX AP long pole stabilizer

[tired niche]

Yeah I was just looking for feedback from those that have used the gummy mount. I’m trying to make the bottom out feel softer. But I don’t want to sacrifice too much low end sound.

[uncut musk]

most people have no compatibility issues with the jades and stock stabs, but id refrence if for whatever reason you have any issues #🪛│modding_faq message

[heady terrace]

does anyone have the boog75?

[vivid gulch]

Why would my spacebar feel harder to press? I’ve got long pole stabs with the 3.5 jade switches … lubed both - is it an under or over lube issue or something else? I’ve switched the spacebar keycap both ways too and it just has some resistance pushing down and ever so slightly slower releasing maybe?

[bitter valve]

Tx ap issue, welcome

Try removing all lube and test without it.

Might need to mix and match housings and stems

[lofty needle]

Most people are able to use them without the use of new stabs, you can try them first before you switch stabs

[vivid gulch]

Thanks! I’ll play around with the stabs

[remote epoch]

my keyboard on the way, before it arrives how can i make the keyboard quiet as possible, i looked on youtube for the sound test and it sounds horrible

[crimson swift]

https://www.keychron.com/products/low-profile-double-shot-pbt-keycap-set?variant=40079836643417
hey guys will this be compatible with 60he?

trying to find low profile keycaps for wooting

[bronze grove]

ANSI? Yes it looks like it has all of the bottom row keys it needs.

Yep.

[agile grove]

it should be noted that since lekkers arent low profile, your keycaps will sorta look like "mushrooms" where the stem is halfway visible

[mild mortar]

How many layers of tape did you use for this? Have almost the exact same build coming in... currently using franken raptors but heard good things about the gateron jades

[crimson swift]

yikes that's not good

[bronze grove]

The website you linked literally shows that Prince 😄

[crimson swift]

yeeah i noticed, thanks

[rustic yacht]

3 layers of electrical tape not the usual painters tape

[crimson swift]

what will happen if i go for aftermarket siwtches? will i still be able to get rapid trigger what benefits will i be losing

[bronze grove]

Keycaps have no inherent effect on performance.

They are literal pieces of plastic with lettering on them.

Changing the SWITCHES however can change functionality.

[crimson swift]

oops

i meant switches

[rustic yacht]

if you wanna know what kind of tape just DM me and ill send you a link 😉

[agile grove]

actually its not compatible, if you look a little farther down it shows that the keys with stabilzers have an entirely different layout

[crimson swift]

so what will change?

[bronze grove]

Howso? I literally linked a render that shows the exact layout we use.

[agile grove]

I dont think the stems would match up

[bronze grove]

You are right. I completely missed the big, fat warning 😄

[mild mortar]

I'll check out how closely mine sounds to this once my jades come in. I think that may be the biggest reason for the difference.

[crimson swift]

also pls

[agile grove]

magnet strengths can be so different that its outside of the calibration range (for example, raptors) or an issue specific with jades, have a lower travel distance

[crimson swift]

oh

[agile grove]

both of these can cause pretty noticeable issues, the former having the switch be much more sensitive, and the latter may not work as well with DKS since you have less travel (and wootility not showing the right travel distance).

[crimson swift]

aghh

i just want to build a keyboard for good typing experience and i prefer low profile

but i also want that sweet rapid trigger

[bronze grove]

The switches will remain tall, so using low profile style keycaps wouldn't do anything for you anyway. 🙂

[agile grove]

I dont see the point of low profile and rapid trigger anyways

the travel distance is so low

[crimson swift]

i guess

i'll just buy the wooting and get used to the high profile typing experience

[cold ocean]

Hey guys is there a specific part name I can use to find the same or similar Oring standoffs? I went to a shop here and found some decent ones (I bought a few to have in general lol) but they arent quite as thin nor from silicon. Any idea where I can find more of the Alumaze / 60HE+'s thin Orings? I found things that would work but never the same actual orings.

[thick mural]

do you mean the physical height of the switch or the travel?

[crimson swift]

physical height

[thick mural]

ah yeah, unfortunately there's no low profile he switches yet

i did hear of one being made however im not sure

[harsh dove]

TX AP Screw Ins arrive today for testing
New Gateron KS20u just arrived in my state, should be here tomorrow or over the weekend possibly

[median spade]

Now we know where you live and going to steal your KS20U

[harsh dove]

lol good luck

[supple girder]

i replaced the stock case with tofu60 redux and now it feels like the stock cable is not plugged in securely. It still works fine and i hear the click when i plug the keyboard in but sometimes if i move the board or the cable shifts the connection is cut. Anyone knows why this is happening? I can see the usb-c port is aligned with the hole on the case

[agile grove]

make sure the port is fully pushed into the hole

[wet hazel]

https://zenaim.com/products/zenaim-keyboard

That's more or less what you want, but software wise I don't know what to expect

But it's low profile, hall effect-rapid trigger and so

Even if they say 0.05 RT, wooting probably it's better in terms of latency

[crimson swift]

ayo thanks bro

[agile grove]

its 0.1mm RT

it says in increments of 0.05mm starting at 0.1mm

[wet hazel]

Ah ok, don't know japanese, only saw the 0.5 mm

[crimson swift]

nvm it's only selling in japan

that's sad as hell it's literally the perfect keyboard for me

[tropic robin]

Hey y‘all i‘ve got a quick question. Does it work if you connect wooting to a PS5 with the rapid triggers?

[bronze grove]

In a game that specifically supports keyboard control? Yes likely

You still need a PC to set up the keyboard out of box though. We have a video on YT about it

[tropic robin]

thanks 🤝

[empty sinew]

Which plate do you guys prefer, the sillicon or poron? And also do you guys also add the foam in the casing below module?

[bronze grove]

Technically not the plate.

[empty sinew]

Sandwich pad 🙂 sry

[bronze grove]

I personally like how the silicone pad sounds in my Alumazes.

There is no one true answer. All depends on your personal poreference at end of day.

[empty sinew]

Sure, just trying to see what you guys like

Also do you add the foam?

[bronze grove]

The case foam? Yes I have it installed.

[empty sinew]

I'll be using the alumaze case

[bronze grove]

I also use the little oring dampeners, and the standoff for spacebar.

[empty sinew]

Yeah i read it comes with piece of foam which some put inside the casing

[thick mural]

Do you guys sell the dampeners separately? Been looking for spares as I switch cases frequently

[bronze grove]

I don't think so, no. But we might have them available as spare parts if you ask us nicely via email at [e-mail]

[thick mural]

Great, thanks 🙂

[untold wigeon]

I didn’t think it was that heavy

[waxen bane]

Has anyone seen a wooting in a bezel-less case

[teal parcel]

What app is this to tell you all your shipping stuff?

[waxen bane]

shop app

[uncut musk]

which spring should i use in the raptor franken switches

[waxen bane]

Whichever spring weight you want?

[harsh dove]

Shop App but it’s not always accurate so you’ll wanna double check with officials courier website which is linked thru the Shop App but tbh lately it’s been accurate

[stray tiger]

I think mine will be here tomorrow or Sat as well but one of my pre-order boards has been stuck in customs for a week...

[harsh dove]

I had that happen to a package recently I forgot which it was

[mental salmon]

Anyone has changed the brass section in the Alumaze? Just for a different look

[median spade]

stock raptor spring imo when i did it

[harsh dove]

I think mine will be here tomorrow as well tho

[high nymph]

too much? do you guys also use switches with different force ?

[median spade]

My wanting everything to match and a equal typing experience does not allow me too

would bug me knowing that my wasd is 45g and the rest is 60g

[high nymph]

Ctrl and Shift also had their springs replaced with 50g ones. this is strictly for gaming. for typing experience I go custom, not wooting

[median spade]

Yeah I have my own customs as well but when im gaming and need to shit post in discord

can't have unequal spring weights you feel

[strange blaze]

Staebies v2.1 are compatible with module right?

[stray tiger]

There have been reported issues with Staebies

[strange blaze]

So they are not?

[stray tiger]

I cant confirm that they are not but there have been reports that they do not fit.

[strange blaze]

I‘ve seen people say they fit so idk

[stray tiger]

If you get them please report back and let us know

[strange blaze]

Alr got them at my desk, got the module coming in the next 3-6 days, will try to remember 👍

[polar girder]

Yeah my small o-ring has “shipped” but not in transit yet

New power supply should be here today tho. Hype for that

[harsh dove]

New power supply? What for

[harsh dove]

Didn’t you order yesterday with me?

Mine already almost here

[copper pulsar]

the redux is literally a brick of a case ngl

[median spade]

It’s heavy if you’re used to gamer boards

Pretty light otherwise

[polar girder]

Cuz I’m having black screen issues on full stock defaults

So gotta start somewhere

[copper pulsar]

ive used heavier, it’s still a very heavy case.

[polar girder]

I ordered my o-ring on the 6th

[copper pulsar]

i have a brass melgeek mojo 60, it’s like 6 pounds or something

[harsh dove]

Have you checked all your cables and reseated hardware?

[polar girder]

Yes I’ve completely taken apart and reinstalled it as well as fresh windows and drivers

[harsh dove]

Interesting

[polar girder]

Yeah it’s fucked

I’ve been trying to figure it out for months lol

[harsh dove]

Are you using any 3rd party cables or extensions?

Like CableMod

[polar girder]

No

[harsh dove]

All stock PSU and GPU cables?

OEM*

[polar girder]

Yeah

[harsh dove]

Hmm

[polar girder]

Could be anything really

[harsh dove]

What PSU you have currently?

[polar girder]

Starting with PSU and go from there

[median spade]

yeah tofu built is only like 2-3lbs really if that

[polar girder]

EVGA P6 1000w Platinum lol

It’s a top rated PSU. But the odds are some component is busted. So I’ll start there and see.

[harsh dove]

2.3 pounds or 1080grams

Salvation is around 2.7-8

[radiant dagger]

is the new batch of l45s worth hand lubing

[harsh dove]

Fjell is 4.4

[median spade]

need a 60% case as heavy as my f1-8x built which is 9lbs

[harsh dove]

Can get close to half that with the fjell lol

Or get that gold/chrome melgeek case

Haven’t checked how much the glass cases weigh like the Baldr60/65

[polar girder]

Glass? Haven’t seen that

Fjell is hot tho

Need a full PC case

And full PC switches

And then also full alu case/plate/keycap build

Would be sweet

[mental salmon]

Almost send you a full tower PC case video 🙂

[polar girder]

Hah

Yeah whoops

[median spade]

no this you do not want

Full PC switches are straight up awful 99% of the time

Part of what makes the lekkers and other HE so bad rn is the pc top

[polar girder]

What’s the best material for thock switch ?

Nylon or POM

[median spade]

Whatever Gateron inks are made out of

mystery material

Nylon is good for clack

[untold wigeon]

tf

[median spade]

yeah it's a chonker, has 6 brass weights in it

[untold wigeon]

Just searched it, looks actually good lol

[median spade]

one of the best keyboards out there imo if not in contention for the best alongside unikorn

[harsh dove]

Yeah they just have “Proprietary Ink Material” listed for housing

And POM Stem

[median spade]

shall forever remain a mystery

[gleaming crane]

Is there an option to change the pc plate on the module yet?

[bronze grove]

Whaddya mean?

[gleaming crane]

Can you change the pc plate to black on the module before ordering

[bronze grove]

You cannot. We currently don't have any plans to produce black modules.

[gleaming crane]

Ah okay, good to know

Thanks

[onyx matrix]

Hi

[ionic heath]

Any good video recommendations for lubing magnetic switches? Gonna start here in the next 20 mins.

[median spade]

the one on the wooting channel they made for it

[ionic heath]

K thanks!

[thick mural]

@stray tiger switched back to the fjell

[knotty canyon]

thoughts on the lekker l45s lubbed compared to the jades?

[thick mural]

surprisingly it seems to bring out the clack more

[median spade]

What you got in your fjell

I got mine and trying to return it

Sound hollow af with HE

[thick mural]

the stock foam u can buy for it does that

without foam it sounds amazing

can even use the tofu foam or wootings foam

[median spade]

Yeah I wasn’t using foam as I tend to not use any foam in builds

I slap a Mx build in and ping goes away

Same on ny salvation

[thick mural]

it brings out the clack with it being so dense

[median spade]

Found the alphas to be muted outside the ping interesting enough

Space bar goes hard tho

[thick mural]

tofu sounds good for the price imo

[median spade]

It does

I regret trying any cases as tofu has been the best for what we can do with HE imo

(I donr count my frog mini)

[thick mural]

im just gonna try diff stabs and switches now

[median spade]

[thick mural]

only downside to the tofu is the black is a fingerprint and oil magnet

[median spade]

Yeah that’s black ano in general

[agile grove]

try polyfill

[thick mural]

my fjell doesnt

[ionic heath]

how many drops of lube if im bag lubing all my springs, like 10?

doing 60 springs

[median spade]

Yeah

[polar girder]

I did half a drop per spring on mine

Not a recommendation, just saying

[ionic heath]

thats a lot of drops

[polar girder]

Yeah

[placid blaze]

yeah that's too much ngl

I've never seen a recommendation that high

does it work for u tho @polar girder? 🤔

[polar girder]

Yeah it’s fine

Cam gets his dual rails tomorrow

Can’t wait

[median spade]

It’s oil tho so won’t do much

Unless you have like 107 or something almost impossible to over do it on bag lube

Even then

[clear kindle]

Hey guys, I'm about to order the KS-20u. Does anyone know if they come factory lubed?

[agile grove]

they do, but I’d recommend you wait for cam to get his

[clear kindle]

Why is that?

And who is cam?

[polar girder]

Some dude in the discord that ordered his already and gets them tomorrow

No reason to wait unless you want more information before you purchase tho

If you want them just buy them

But Cam also has the Raptors, Jades, and lekker switches so it’s a good info source

[clear kindle]

Okay. I went ahead and ordered them. My L45 has too much stem wobble.

[polar girder]

What kind of spring is in the dual rails?

[harsh dove]

Same as jades @polar girder

Just have full 4mm travel

Instead of 3.5

[polar girder]

Sick

Thanks

What’s ‘materials?

[harsh dove]

Now I have every variant of TX AP

Plate Mount, Clip Ins, Screw Ins

Actually I don’t have long pole variant

[fluid ravine]

so get em :)

[harsh dove]

But fuck those, don’t need em

[fluid ravine]

lol

[harsh dove]

Waste of money

lol

[fluid ravine]

[polar girder]

Yeah Cam hates wasting money

Kekw

[crimson swift]

hey guys does the wooting 60he module come with a plate?

I'm new to keyboard modding so idk lol

[median spade]

do you have any mx stuff or is your only keyboard/builds HE?

[median spade]

yea

pc plate

[slim drift]

Cam i have no clue what this server would do without your sacrifices

[crimson swift]

oh ok

[agile grove]

we would still have tirade

[crimson swift]

does it come with the plate foam too?

[agile grove]

yes

the box contents are listed on the website

[harsh dove]

Continue on as normal

And yeah Tirade been here way before me lol

[median spade]

you would probably waste less money if CAM was not here

oh yeah that's true

[harsh dove]

I have a few

Really focused on HE products tho

[median spade]

[static tendon]

Ofc, rapid trigger and hall affect switches are the future

[median spade]

just was curious if you jumped into keyboards with HE or not

[harsh dove]

Nah, always been into Tech, I’d say I got more into it because of HE

[median spade]

When HE gets on the level of MX switches I will officially say it's future for the hobby of keyboards

sound wise*

and well if they can solve tactiles for those users

[harsh dove]

And silent HE

[median spade]

yep

[static tendon]

The way I view it, is to get used to it now. It's just gonna become more and more main stream. No running from it

[median spade]

Oh yeah like I"m glad it's gotten at least where it's at now

[static tendon]

It's gonna happen eventually, right now there's a bunch of customs using mx switches but I do believe in years and years time, it will be replaced with hall affect switches

[median spade]

When I got my 60He initially i didn't even bother doing anythign but make it south facing (going on knowledge at the time) and gmk

then just used for only gaming and nothign else as lekkers were all you got

[static tendon]

Yeah I feel that, that's me right now but that's because I'm fully satisfied with the way the board feels at the moment. Sounds good right out the box

[median spade]

the only barrier that might not make it into customs is how the pcb is implemented/cost

but if akko is making stuff then maybe it's not too expensive

[static tendon]

I think as more time passes it'll be mass produced, I don't think price will be the main issue

Right now it's quite new, only a few switches out for the HE

But every large company is copying the rapid trigger function

[glossy dirge]

are there any split ergo HE boards yet? that would be a strong indication of gaining more traction

[median spade]

err I don't think using split ergo as a reference is good lol

Split ergo still pretty niche as is in the mech community

[static tendon]

Agreed

[median spade]

I say this as someone who owned a imk corne, kyria, iris, etc

[glossy dirge]

they are pretty crazy, saw one of them you'd submit pictures of your hand for them to print your board to the right shape

[median spade]

this was the imk corne i had (when I did have it)

man watching this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DSGwlzI5h5g

HE stuff just pales in comparison so much to mx stuff for sound . Even the holy 60 sounded great once he put the salvation mx build in

[fluid ravine]

maan what the fack

[glossy dirge]

Is there a consensus on cablemod keyboard cables? I have that option for a refund or a larger amount in credit.
