bassically the hall effect sensor should detect the strength of magnetic field and then can produce digital\analog signal afaik

simply put

ive extensively explained your flawed logic. if you do not want to listen and wanna stay set in your flawed way of thinking thats for you decide. i wont explain it over and over just for you to reply with more flawed statements

#

How can i TaKe them apart?

#

They are stuck together

empty sinew
#

rip 🙂

glacial wind
#

don't pull but basically roll them so they unwind from each other eventually

#

oh calslock beat me to it in under channel

river socket
#

np thanks for the help

verbal knoll
#

can someone explain to me why my 3mm o-rings did nothing to reduce the travel-distance of my keys?

#

it just lifted the actual button higher but the traveltime is basically the same

#

how in the world am I supposed to reduce the travel distance if I can't do it with o-rings?

austere creek
#

how did you put on the orings

verbal knoll
#

on the keycap stem

austere creek
#

should work if they arent too thin

#

most people ive seen stick ceramic beads under the keycaps

verbal knoll
#

this is 1x 1.5mm ring

#

I put 2 of those on

#

the key should be reduced from 3.5mm to 0.5mm

#

but it's still 3.5mm

#

the button is just taller

#

I really don't get it

#

see how elevated the W is in comparison to Q and E

river socket
#

Some of my switch covers dont work is there Any fixes?

#

Like it doesnt let me press the switch down its just rock Sokos

#

Solid

stray tiger
#

You put the switch together wrong. Turn the top housing around

river socket
#

And one of the clips is a little bit over than the other onks

stray tiger
#

You can assemble the switch two ways but it only works one way. Rotate the top 180 and put it back together.

river socket
#

Its working now thx

#

I was about to lube my switches i lubed a few but it sounded the same

wet hazel
verbal knoll
#

if you put o-rings on them you reduce the travel

#

but not on magnetic switches

#

I'm confused

somber drum
#

guys what formation should i put my case foam inside, spongy rough side or smooth side?

#

i feel like spongy rough side made my kb sound and feel better, smooth side was a little bit deeper i think or i maybe be tripping, although feel was nowhere nicer

untold wigeon
#

Finally got all parts and assembling: HE60+ module Tofu redux dark purple with jade switches and steelseries prism caps (reusing from old keyboard)

#

No physical issues with stock stabs with this setup so far (information i was looking for myself)

empty sinew
#

hows the spacebar level given that you using both optional standoffs?

untold wigeon
#

Can you specify the question im new, do you mean the height compared to the case rim?

river socket
#

Which one should i Use poron foam or silicone

empty sinew
#

had this issues with mine, but fixed it with removing the bottom right standoff

untold wigeon
#

Hope this helps but looks level to me maybe with LEDs it will be more apparent

#

Pushing with «full force»

wet hazel
#

With Jades I have that problem if I push one side of the spacebar with force

#

But when I'm typing doesn't occur

untold wigeon
#

Maybe the caps themselves are a factor too idk but im happy with the level and that they dont get stuck as ive also seen

empty sinew
#

nah with me was the PCB

untold wigeon
#

did u get redux

#

lolhero

empty sinew
#

#

its in my home 😄 but I am stuck in work office

I like the poron more

Taking this to my barber

empty sinew
#

And yeah as said by CAM the white leds are a bit of a no go. I tried something like 230 255 255 to get a bit less reddish

#

Its here bois

median spade
#

Did you get weight too PAUSERS

empty sinew
#

Ye

old swallow
#

ngl, weight with acrylic kinda weird

empty sinew
#

You out the pads in anyway

median spade
#

Not weird at all

#

Adds more weight to board and changes sound profile

old swallow
#

ive got the weight aswell, but you can see it with the acrylic, so you know

#

but its actually pretty cool

empty sinew
#

For mounting the module, did you have to use any standoffs?

old swallow
#

you can do the spacebar one, but you dont need to

#

most people prefer the sound without it

empty sinew
#

And did you add the stickers that come sith tofu?

#

Theres some black stickers

#

I think its for the additional standofs

#

On edges

#

Not the screw mounts

old swallow
#

i didnt, not sure about others

soft pawn
#

I’ve just tried screw in tx ap stabs on module space bar feels mushy ?

empty sinew
#

which ones did you get?

median spade
#

So if the plate plus stab combo is too tight it will be mushy and slow to return

soft pawn
#

Ah right I got 1.6 normal

#

So u have to sand the plate then

river socket
#

Can you Use electric tape on pcb

agile grove
#

electrical tape is wayyyyy too sticky

river socket
#

Ok is painters tape the only one?

peak oasis

i dont recommand its gonna make contact with some parts you wont

#

Can I put silicone in my case without risking breaking the PCB? with Electrosatic ( ESD ) or shit like that ..

Im going to re-record the switch test video. Watched last nights stream and camera focus was locked and the 3rd microphone has some noise filters on that shouldnt have been there.

untold wigeon

#

focus

#

😄

stray tiger
#

Yeah, camera #3 which is the side view camera had autofocus turned off lol

untold wigeon
#

ah, tbh raptors with stem swap sounded the lowest out of the pack

#

but if u dont want to mod/change switches i feel like ks-20u is the best alternative

#

for thock

stray tiger
#

That was my conclusion. The stem swapped ones suprised me for real

untold wigeon
#

sounded great

#

but for a noob like me i cba doin a steam swap so ill go with the ks-20’s

stray tiger
#

When i redo the video Im going to use a 100% stock new out of the box 60HE+ so thats its more relevant of a test

untold wigeon
#

yeah fair

#

prolly have to watch it tomorrow morning😄

stray tiger
# untold wigeon prolly have to watch it tomorrow morning😄

Might record it tonight but wont stream it, so Ill have to edit and upload Im guessing. We will see. I wasnt impressed with multi-streaming last night, I might just go 100% youtube for now and stream at 4k instead of trying to do 1440p youtube and 1080p twitch

#

@harsh dove not sure if you’re currently on but do you tighten the screws all the way down when screwing in the PCB to salvation case? I feel like if I tighten it somewhat snug, it removes a lot of the bounce

stray tiger
static tendon
static tendon
# harsh dove

Sounds good. I did just about that yesterday. Helped improve the bouncy feel a little more

#

I’ve seen some people off YouTube make the salvation bounce like crazy using a full plate, not half plate and not plate-less but they were using regular PCBs not Hall effect ones

soft epoch
#

thats awesome to hear

#

these jades are awesome!
much better than the ks-20 (which I had filmed and lubed)
these are awesome as they are, idk if I wanna bother filming these or lubing them

thick mural
#

it traps a lot of the high pitch sounds

#

sounds really good

agile grove
thick mural
#

any rebound sound wouldn't

#

id assume that's what gives the jades such a different sound profile

soft epoch
# cyan adder Any sound test ?

dont rlly have a good setup for that, sorry. otherways I defo would have done a comparison test between them.
The KS-20 is slightly more silent than the Jades, but also has a higher frequency.
the Jades is very thocky''

#

the stabs is noticably too long for these switches. So I will have to switch those out.
not a problem with the spacebar, but I do feel it with the shift key

Can’t wait to rebuild keyboard once my brass plate gets here

Sell the stock 60HE

Woohoo

harsh dove
#

On regular HE switches there’s no bottom out sound

#

All you’re hearing is the upstroke sound of the stem coming back up and hitting the top housing

thick mural
#

raptors with the lekker stem sound significantly deeper

#

compared to the normal raptors

stray tiger
#

They do and I was surprised by that

empty sinew
#

Idk why thouh since stem looks very similair

#

Could be a lube job?

harsh dove
#

Stock raptors don’t sound deep at all

#

KS20u is probably the deepest to me in terms of stock switches

polar girder
#

Jades are very clean and crisp. But not very deep.

#

Yeah the muted and low sound of the stem swapped raptors I really like

#

Staying with those for now

wet hazel
#

Yeah, the closed bottom hits very clacky

#

At least compared to the L45 lubbed that I had before

stray tiger
#

Yeah I think thats pretty clear in the video I made yesterday but I plan to do it again with some better explanations and on a stock board

polar girder
#

Yeah the l45 spring and stem in the raptor housing I like quite a bit

harsh dove
stray tiger
harsh dove
#

Yeah definitely, I’m planning on stem swapping mine again and putting them in my alumaze x Olivia build

polar girder
harsh dove
#

Yeah I mean based on tirades experience, his l60s are very broken in so that should help with the friction feel

peak oasis
stray tiger
fallen crag
#

Lubed my L60s to high heaven, and they feel pretty good, still thinking about ways to make them better

#

The fit could be tighter thou, but that brings more friction with it.. Wondering if its possible to create PTFE stems that sit tighter, but wont have the rubbing feel due to their low friction.
At least at an affordable/reasonable price that is.. .-.

untold wigeon

i mean bigsly already explained that it seems😄

depends on the case

#

i have 2 sets of foam in my fjell

No case foam here but there is plate foam I believe

wispy thistle

is that gummy o ring mounted?

harsh dove
#

No

#

Damn autocorrect

wispy thistle
#

lol no worries thanks

harsh dove
#

No probs

wispy thistle
#

I like it, not exactly what i was going for but I am not too picky 🙂 sounds good

harsh dove
#

That is a salvation case so it’ll sound different in something like an alumaze or tofu

wispy thistle
#

oh yea mine will be in a tofu alu with brass weight, and ill probably gummy o ring mount. so it will sound slightly diff or you think completely diff

harsh dove
#

Well..

#

Modded with everything you said but also has plate foam and I’m using carbon fiber plate here

wispy thistle
#

oh hell yea. that sounds amazing to me

#

maybe ill use the pe foam then

harsh dove
#

lol yeah

#

I actually like the tofu foam

#

Nothing wrong with wootings either

#

But I like the smoother tofu foam lol

wispy thistle
#

wait when you say plate foam that goes in between pcb and plate right?

harsh dove
#

Yessir

wispy thistle
#

i dont think i got a tofu plate foam

harsh dove
#

I don’t either

#

I’m referring to tofu case foam

wispy thistle
#

ohh gothca

#

yea i dont have the wooting case foam cus i only got the module

lapis stump
#

it should come with the module

#

its looks more porous

wispy thistle
#

oh yea im tripping its right here

#

thanks lol

#

so do i have to pull all the switches on before i do the tape mod?

harsh dove
#

No

#

Either way works

#

With switches on or off

any recommendation of switches for 60he? i did gummy oring + stab + cotton mod. i was like "ok its not bad" at first. 3 months later i switch back to my old keeb i am like "yea i am hecking lying to myself this whole time"

🥲 anything that is not hybrid? my brain is already melting from all the work stuff

well raptors w/ lekker stems is the only one thats hybrid

#

Jades sound good stock idk about ks20u

i got the 60he+ module, which comes with PC. but theres no where to also get the steel plate, is there? was wanting to experiment with that one as well

kind helm
fluid ravine
#

nothing else

kind helm
#

yea that steel plate was probably the more important factor in terms of the pitch

fluid ravine
#

well at least you would know the sound difference of each switch in the same board

OK i gtg sleep gn yall

Hey I've got some TX AP rev 4 stabs sitting here since I accidentally didn't get plate mount 😅

If anyone keen on paying shipping I'd be happy to send them. I'm in Australia so not too sure if would be even worth unless you're also in aus haha

Should work with the HE+ or module I think ^^

Got a Wooting, stock sound and feel kinda bad, so modded the heck out of it, and made a sound/typing test. Even though some of the mods are actually p scuffed, I'm pretty satisfied with it. Hopefully Wooting makes some lekker switches with less stem wobble though, because I'm not a fan of the rattley sound.

No but some stickers for additional standof points in cornerns

Tofu has some non screw points

untold wigeon
#

u have pictures of the stickers?

#

is it the same as you get with alumaze?

empty sinew
#

No

#

They are not circular shape

#

As the standofs are not circle

untold wigeon

oh

Its like a special shape

untold wigeon

hmm

#

guess ill have a look

empty sinew

Its for these

untold wigeon
#

yeah ill look im omw to pick mine up

wind karma
#

how did you get it to sound like that?

gaunt marten
# empty sinew

what are those stickers even for honestly, like do they change anything Thonk

empty sinew
#

probably to dumpen the sound a little

gaunt marten
empty sinew
#

same type of thing as o-rings on the screw points

gaunt marten

probably more for the PCB not to get any scratches\dents

unless u buy the exact amount u probs wont get the official box

bought 70 on ali express

nvm i forgot for jades specifically

#

retailers doesnt get box

this is how they ship jades

to retailers

#

my friend is an official retailer here

i mean they sound great, function on my wooting normally and look exactly the same so i wasnt that worried ahha

but thats super cool insight thanks

i guess this is cheaper for shipping yeah

#

it is a bit funny they didn't even give a cheapie plastic container like a lot of other brands do and just threw them in a baggy lol

untold wigeon
#

wonder how they come in packs of 10 from mechkeys

glacial wind
#

baggy is fairly normal but usually the brands as least get a nicer looking branded baggy instead of something from the supermarket aisle

#

Geon raptors came like this for example

untold wigeon
#

nah this redux is literally fire

untold wigeon
glacial wind
untold wigeon

ah okay

usually most brands have cheapie mini plastic tins or branded baggies

untold wigeon

have u ordered from mechkeys before?

glacial wind

nah not personally

untold wigeon
#

okay

i wouldn't really mind if it came in a cheapie baggy though, it's just funny that a retailer was too cheap to even use branded ones

#

standard pbt feel

untold wigeon
#

like the wooting ones?

glacial wind
#

honestly not even sure how the wooting ones feel, i've never used the stock wooting keycaps

untold wigeon
#

but its different from pbt dye sub keycaps right?

#

since they are double shot

glacial wind
#

eh not really. Double shot can get better legend quality but feel wise i don't notice any real difference assuming both sets are quality ones

untold wigeon
#

i noticed a different from wootings double shot pbt compared to the dye sub ones i have now

#

wootings felt more grippy ish

#

dunno how to explain it really

glacial wind
#

there's different levels of pbt materials you can use

untold wigeon
#

ah

glacial wind
#

some brands mix abs into pbt as well, so not all pbt keycaps are the same amount of pbt

untold wigeon
#

hope the pbtfans are a little bit on the grippy side and not slippery xd

glacial wind
#

if you ever want super grippy you can always get pulsar supergrip for keyboard stickers

#

some folks put that on wasd for example to get rubber keycap grip feel without needing to change keycaps constantly from the wear

untold wigeon
#

nah nah i just want a little bit grippy but not too much

#

yeah on reviews it has texture

#

so thats good

#

1.6mm thick also

cyan adder
#

Found a jar

glacial wind
#

honestly i'm just glad we're past the days of scuffed molds being considered good quality

like comparing some of my earlier sets from few years back to entry level sets now. It's funny how much scuffed edging and warping on pbt keys was considered good back then

# untold wigeon althought i want the aeron one

Classic Aeron can be found for pretty cheap secondhand. Wework went out of business so they've been liquidating their chairs so you can usually find a Sayl or Aeron, other offices usually liquidate the Aeron when they close or move buildings too. I bought my Embody at a corporate rate and it's great. I was looking at the Steelcase Gesture at the time too but I was able to get the Herman Miller for a better price.

# untold wigeon shipping will be a pain to EU tho

Local secondhand is your best bet. With no exaggeration the Aeron has been the most popular office chair for 20 years. I’ve seen the classic models go for 300 CAD and the new remastered model fully loaded go for 600 to 700 CAD on local marketplaces. They go FAST though.

@harsh dove yo

I started opening my jades

The factory lube on the stems is very good and consistent, what did u do on the stem factory lube ? Did u lube it over the factory lune or just let it like that ? Idk what to do. Already did bag lubing the spring and top/ bottom housing, only wondering about the stems

Just lube over it

# polar girder Lekker 2.0 when tho

If there were to be a Lekker 2.0, wouldn't it sound like the peaches and have tighter tolerance without the dual rails like the jades.
Like IF they were doing the same materials and everything

#

Just different weights/actuations

#

Very similar

agile grove
#

doesnt change anything

#

I will note that im taking this from lekkers, but im assuming it would be the same here

harsh dove
#

Of all the videos/sound test I’ve heard of people with filmed HE switches, they all sound the same as if they weren’t filmed to me

#

To me filming does nothing for HE switches

quiet bay
#

in my experience they did tighten top housing but did make it sound clackier

harsh dove
#

Fair, yeah I haven’t used them on any of the HE switches I have but just based on videos they don’t seem to change sound much, but I do imagine they tighten housing

median spade
#

I did it on my raptors and lekkers

#

Made housing a tad tighter but nothing to sound in my back to back sound test

Is it worth it to change the stabilizers? If so, what is recommended? Using magnetic jades

Screw ins don't fit

fallen crag
#

Hand lubed stabs on the 60HE seem fine for me, got no rattle at all. Is there any other benefit of screw ins?

paper bloom
#

But there is a risk where when you remove the PCB you gotta be careful

#

Since its screwed in

fallen crag
#

I already had the whole thing disassembled, changed almost everything except switches and keycaps

paper bloom
#

I c

#

Btw is it hard af to remove the screw in stabs

#

LOL

fallen crag
#

Cant say, dont have the +

paper bloom
#

Ah okay

fallen crag
#

I just went alumaze and PC plate, as well as lubing everything

#

Stabs sit firm and if ya give them plenty of lube on the sides as well, they are pretty much silent

paper bloom

Nice

#

Nvm i gotta remove the plate

THEN I CAN uninstall the PCB

Wdym?

Depends what keyboard you have

For the module it should fit without issues

Its a well known fact, The stabilizers for TX Ap's are a 50 50 same as stabies

yes?

Hm

empty sinew
#

the module has screw ins

#

not the prebuilt

paper bloom
#

WELP individual ig

empty sinew
#

which has pcb plate mounted ones

paper bloom
#

Since some reported saying it wouldnt work and they gotta carve it out to fit

empty sinew
#

there are tolerances

#

but its rare

#

your more likely to have them fit perfectly then not

#

some of them might come from TX a bit wider

#

and then they are a "tight" fit

paper bloom
#

I c

empty sinew
#

anyhow you can also lube\grease the stock

#

as I did

#

and it works pretty well

#

greasing hard the end of the wires, till the curvey spot and a bit over

#

then lubing the stem and the housing

#

thin coating

#

makes them pretty much no rattle

#

but they are still tiny bit wobbly

#

also some tighten the screws very hard, which I don't like

#

I found that just tightening very carefull till its just enough is good

paper bloom
#

I see welp

#

HOPEFULLY it works for the others

empty sinew
#

note that wire should use the grease and the housing the lube

#

lube on wire is not that good

#

its not as thick

fallen crag

#

Yeah golden rules small screw small torque 🙂

On a PCB its not even about the screw, but the stress u put on the PCB.. Its very easy to demage the board doing that.

PC plate, silicon pad and screw ins are pre installed on the module,

#

Thinking about a way to silence the bottom out noises

paper bloom
#

There was a method i thought of

#

But its actually schizo af

#

and it cld damage your switch

#

and PCB

fallen crag
#

Small rubber stripes on the parts that hit eachother

paper bloom
#

Nah you add TPU on the housing and then just slap lube in it

#

and then for the bottoming out you run some sort of tape (has to be conductive) to the eletrical

#

But there arent any of that

paper bloom
#

And then dampen it

fallen crag
#

Got plenty electrical tape

paper bloom
#

Eletrical TAPE DOES Not work since it might mess with the magnetic force

#

BUT if u strip it out to the thinnest

fallen crag
#

:/

IDK its an experiment i just thought of

#

and it IS SCHIZO AF

Im on the othe end of extreme xD

paper bloom

Ik

#

You told me b4

fallen crag
#

Used to play with 800 way back

#

Then stated to go higher due to space issues

#

Now i got plenty of space, but mouse just sits at 1 spot, and im still aimbot precise xD

#

Ik the feeling of accidentally punching a wall, or going offroad with the mouse xD

#

But never yeeted it away, it always got tanked by my hand

paper bloom
#

Yea lmao

paper bloom
fallen crag
#

U ever considered going higher in DPI?

#

It may fix your issue, but the higher you get, the harder it is to hit the target consistantly

#

1.600 to 3.200 are still very playable

#

If you go any higher, you need to aim more with fingers and hand, no longer with the arms

#

And you need to pushe your precision to the max

#

25.800 DPI are hella exhausting, went back to only 12.400 on the same 1%
Way easier in game and on desktop xD

empty sinew
#

me 800 dpi 🙂

fallen crag
#

Yall are low DPI players, only found 1 person so far with even higher DPI

empty sinew
#

I still can't figure if I am more finger grip or claw grip player

#

I variate between the two

#

like when I move freely I use finger without support, but then for precise holding small movements I rest the hand on the back of mouse

fallen crag
#

Its for stabilizing the movement

fallen crag
#

Going back to 3200DPI would feel like 100DPI to you

ocean widget
#

Im fine one 950 xd

fallen crag
#

Back with my xm1 i went from 800 to 1600 and then capped out at 3200DPI 20%.
With the DAV3 i went from 3200 20% to 6400 10%, to 12400 5% and peaked at 26800 1% for a few months. Now i went back to 12400 and 1%.. I may switch back to 26k later on

Also windows is neutral at 6/11, so i use the full DPI on desktop as well
