yes

#

Issue is keycaps with jades not stabs

#

@grizzled edge

dapper kernel
#

Ok i bought one cant wait, even my balaced stabs always has rattle sound and i hate it 💀

dapper kernel
#

But spacebar might be wrapped idk pepecry

harsh dove
#

Yeah its usually keycaps with looser stem tolerances

grizzled edge
#

ahhh I see. thanks for the insight. Do all 3 conduct light from the backlighting equally as good? I've seen keyboards that have legends with unequal light shining through, pretty awful result (came across a review of the awful new logitech gaming 60% keyboard has precisely this issue)

tawdry tree
glossy pagoda
#

The dye sub keycaps are not shine through

grizzled edge
glossy pagoda
#

For the shinethrough on ABS and PBT, that depends more on the LED placement on the keyboard and if that aligns with the characters or not

grizzled edge
#

I suppose how the switch beneath is built will also impact how the backlight is guided to the keycap

#

is the light beneath the switch or switching on the switch itself?

glossy pagoda
#

LED is on the PCBA

tawdry tree
#

All Woot’s boards are north facing LEDs.

grizzled edge
grizzled edge
# tawdry tree It’s about if your LEDs are north or south facing. South facing LEDs don’t light...

had no idea there was these 2 configurations. Upon reading on it (https://keyboardable.com/north-facing-switches-vs-south-facing-switches/), I understand north-facing doesn't work well with cherry caps though. is that a concern with woot's keyboards?

Mechanical keyboards are one of the best ways to improve your typing experience. They're durable, customizable, and provide a tactile feel that you can't get

tawdry tree
median spade
#

Yeah really only some switches on the mx side really

#

like the one true switch MX blacks

leaden pawn
#

specifically with module?

tawdry tree
#

Oh yeah it was the switches that caused it.

polar girder
#

Need south facing led’s

#

North facing straight garbage

#

Side print legends, come on folks

grizzled edge
#

@polar girder you're saying litterally the opposite to what I've been told here xD

tribal tundra
#

can a normal switch opener open he switches??

polar girder
grizzled edge
#

(i'm learning, apologies for my stupid questions)

#

but if it's print anyway, is it even shinethrough?

tribal tundra
polar girder
#

Yeah some gets through

#

But it’s lame not that bright

#

Side shine through I guess

#

wooting 80he comes with tape and foam mode right?

harsh dove
#

Comes with tape mod and silicone gasket mount

tribal tundra
#

ok

#

what about foam

#

i thought it came with foam

harsh dove
#

All of this is on the website

tribal tundra
#

ok

harsh dove
#

What you see is what you get

tawdry tree
tribal tundra
#

ooh

#

it comes with tape and foam

grizzled edge
tribal tundra
#

then imma just do a switch pad mod probably

#

it makes it more thocky right?

tawdry tree
tribal tundra
#

wait

#

do any switch pads fit?

tawdry tree
#

I don’t think it’s gonna be a big difference for the 80HE tbh

grizzled edge
tawdry tree

ah yes, if you want to have LED bleed around the keys (I hate that) 😄

Sent an email out, fingers crossed. Thank you!

harsh dove
tribal tundra
#

will these fit the 80he?

tawdry tree
#

If the thickness is 0.3mm it’ll fit fine.

#

0.3mm or less.

old swallow
#

idk if i am wrong here, but arent these supposed to go on the PCB under the switches? cause thats what it looks like to me from the holes. and the bottom of HE switches is very different from 3/5 pin switches

tawdry tree
old swallow
tawdry tree
#

I don’t think you can find them in a 2-pin + LED cutout yet. Maybe 3-pin originally for optical switches.

👍

#

0.5mm and beloew works fine actually @tawdry tree
I use to have them in my board (Took it out after 6 motnsh, regretted it, ima buy another set another time)

#

this is my wooting60

#

wooden DH60 case
gmk olivia clones
raptor switches with lekker stems
tape modded and tuned
spacebar foam

polar girder
#

Goes thock or what

#

👁️👄👁️

supple field
#

it's really hard to get a wooting to thock because of how the magnets work but the spacebar is very thocky. However there is a very deep clack for every other switch and it has a very tight stem, it feels really good with a nice bumpy spring and an overall really good feeling

#

it's worth buying raptors and taking time to make the frankenswitch

#

because after using the lekker switches i hate wobble

#

Na the black

#

black zinc case?

#

or maybe gmk dots

pastel fulcrum

#

you could also get some cerakeys if you'd be interested in that

#

i do also like white/beige with a black case but that might just be me

median spade
#

Beige with silver only

little glen
#

yep

tribal tundra
tribal tundra
#

It doesn’t say

#

Should be though

tribal tundra
#

can switch pads go on the 80he?

uneven cradle
#

well they use the same switches so I'm going to guess yes

tribal tundra
#

ok

boreal fog
#

have a parcel shipped from wooting, via fedex - and its experiencing a Clearance delay - Import
"Shipment requires a Commercial Invoice."

What do?

fluid ravine
# tribal tundra can switch pads go on the 80he?

Yes switch pads do indeed work with the 80he and the 60he to answer your questions, in my testing anything below 0.5mm should work fine, although I use 0.5mm I don't recommend it as it actually get compress and it could potentially mess up with some of the switches sensors. But in my experience I have not gone through any issue with it, but I still recommend using 0.25mm too avoid any issues.

tribal tundra
#

it doesn't say what mm 😭

fluid ravine
#

Millimeter

#

It should be stated in the descriptions

tribal tundra
#

ok

fluid ravine
#

of where you're buying it from

tribal tundra
#

im getting it off temu cuz im broke 😭

#

do these fit?

fluid ravine
#

I mean $5 for a set of 100 iirc
cheap as shi

#

Without any details of the switch pads in the image, I cannot say

tribal tundra
#

thickness is 0.5mm

fluid ravine
#

Again works fine, but should def avoid sensor issues, go for something thinner

#

like Aligner said 0.3 or below

tribal tundra
#

ok

fluid ravine
#

I agree with him on that when choosing switch pads

tribal tundra
#

ok

#

i can't find any 😭

#

they are all 0.5mm

#

this good?

fluid ravine
#

Those are switch films

tribal tundra
#

oh

#

what do they do?

#

thocky?

dapper kernel
#

Make switch housing tighter but pretty much useless for jade and lekker

fluid ravine
#

Sorry to ask but is thock all you think about?

dapper kernel
fluid ravine
# tribal tundra what do they do?

LIke ArtGZT said they're useless as these films are made for MX switches mold, HE switch mold is too big so they come out warped when installed

tribal tundra
#

ok

tribal tundra
#

I CAN NOT FINDD ANY 0.3 MM SWITCH PADS

#

HELPPPP

fluid ravine
#

Again 0.3mm or below

#

there should be 0.25mm in the market

tribal tundra
#

i cant find themmmmm 😭

dapper kernel
#

Is switch pad even good for lekker since the switch just has a hole at the bottom

polar girder
#

Nah fuck a switch pad, homie

fluid ravine
#

Don't really need tbh

polar girder
#

Lolz

fluid ravine
#

lol

sweet oak
fluid ravine
#

LMAO

dapper kernel
tribal tundra
fluid ravine
tribal tundra
#

ok then

#

ig

sweet oak
tribal tundra
#

do yall know how thick the foam is in the 80he?

fluid ravine
#

which foam

#

plate foam or case foam

tribal tundra
#

uhhh

#

idk

fluid ravine
#

;-;

tribal tundra
#

what is the difference

dapper kernel
#

80he use silicone, so foam is mostly at the bottom

tribal tundra
#

ok

fluid ravine
#

Plate foam is the pad/foam between the plate and pcb

#

Case foam is foam being used in the case

#

EPDM foam is being used as case foam for the 80HE

#

60HE as well iirc

tribal tundra
#

whhich one is added in keyboard modded

fluid ravine
#

?

#

No engles

tribal tundra
#

uh

sweet oak
#

Unrelated, but what case are you using Thockson? Im curious ungatothink

clapclapclap niiiiice

fluid ravine
#

Thanks :]

#

Special present lolz

sweet oak
#

Im craving the mocha redux

#

Never built a board so thinking itd be fun to do over the summer

dapper kernel
#

I want my 80he but i dread doing the stabs 💀

sweet oak
tribal tundra
#

how do u get roless

polar girder
# tribal tundra why

Just not personally a fan of things potentially getting in the way of magnet/PCB connection

tribal tundra
#

i have beta updates??

#

ok

polar girder
#

It could work. But could also cause trouble

tribal tundra
#

makes sense

polar girder
#

And I’m generally more of a purist

#

Less is more

tribal tundra
#

the 80he has tape foam and gasket mods already

polar girder
#

Yeah that’s cool

tribal tundra
#

idk what mods to do thenn

polar girder
#

I think I want gasket mount for 60HE

tribal tundra
#

more foam??

fluid ravine
polar girder
dapper kernel
tribal tundra
#

wat are stabs

polar girder
#

Custom made plates exist

#

Stabilizers

tribal tundra
#

ok

#

ohh

#

should i do a bandage mod on stabalizers

polar girder
#

But also I don’t use that

tribal tundra
#

k

polar girder
#

Stock stabs are fine

fluid ravine
#

@tribal tundra understand this, Mods in the keyboard hobby is mostly used to fix a problem in your keyboard and yet some to find a certain keyboard sound. Usually it shouldn't be used as if you WANT to mod the keyboard unless you got alot of money to spend on keyboards and mess around with it.

#

For now just get the board and if you have problems with it in any ways, slowly figure out the mods to get the solutions

tribal tundra
#

ok

dapper kernel
#

CAM was talking about the knight stabs coming with hole mod

fluid ravine
#

that gotta be interesting

tribal tundra
#

also is the force break mod just a switch pad

polar girder
#

Too much stabilizer anxiety

dapper kernel
#

Yeah they call it injection infused or sth

polar girder
#

Right yeah

#

Different solution to similar problem

fluid ravine
dapper kernel
#

But it’s basically just silicone on top

fluid ravine
#

puting tape between the metal contact of the chassis

tribal tundra
fluid ravine
#

reduces pinging

tribal tundra
#

ooh

dapper kernel
#

I dont like hole mod because it feels mushy for me

fluid ravine
fluid ravine
dapper kernel
#

And without it the sound is so off from one side to the other even if i balanced the wires

tribal tundra
#

is the kilmat mod just foam?

polar girder
#

Kilmat is a foam replacement

tribal tundra
#

this is my first time so i have lots of questions

dapper kernel
#

I bought 3 different stabs for my 60he and it was a nightmare because it was so tight and the stab doesnt go up dogekek

tribal tundra
polar girder
#

There’a more things than foam you can put in your case or as plate foam

#

Kilmat, Polyfill, diff types of foam for case

#

Can put anything in there really. To change acoustics

#

Change how the sound bounces around

#

Can go empty for case and/or plate

#

Don’t have to have foam or silicone or whatever

fluid ravine
#

All personal preference

#

I favor in polyfill

dapper kernel
#

Stabs is my nightmare, others are easy to compared to getting stabs right

fluid ravine
#

so does Pops (Thockfather)

tribal tundra
polar girder
#

Kilmat is AKA dynamat

fluid ravine
#

Sound killer 🔪

polar girder
#

Sound proofing for cars

dapper kernel
#

I prefer denser and thicker case foams, reduced high pitch sounds

fluid ravine
#

Oo yeah denser foam

#

esp for pingy case

polar girder
# tribal tundra too messy imo

I think so long as you can embrace experimenting and playing around with combos you’ll be able to make the most out of mods

fluid ravine
#

yessir

polar girder
#

Planning ahead and expecting to get it perfect the first time is a fools errand

fluid ravine
#

haha-

#

yeah... I wonder who made that mistake

dapper kernel
#

The foam that comes with wooting is good, wont really change it unless u dont like the sound

fluid ravine
#

agreed^

polar girder
#

IMO the biggest mod is mounting style

#

and lubing switches/stabs

#

Different switches matter

fluid ravine
#

Mod for a wooting 60he?
Yes indeed

polar girder
#

Right

fluid ravine
#

Mounting style just goes crazyyy

dapper kernel
#

He’s getting the 80he so there wont be much mods to do tbh

fluid ravine
#

yeah

polar girder
#

Oh mb

fluid ravine
#

Wooting trying to live up to expectation
I respect that

polar girder
#

Yeah I think it’s mostly just about the switches at that point

dapper kernel
#

All im doing will be jades hand lubed, and stabs 💀

fluid ravine
#

I know some will be disappointed (Like the size layout for example) but i mean like cmon

polar girder
#

The case foam and plate foam mods will change sound a little but it’s small change

fluid ravine
#

they do some good shi

polar girder
#

Fun experiment tho

fluid ravine
#

I just need to get my hands on some new switches and keycaps

dapper kernel
#

I was thinking about switch pads to soften the jades sound but nah too lazy dogekek

polar girder
#

I suddenly want aluminum keycaps pepecry

#

Soften Jade sound = don’t get jades

fluid ravine
#

I did every mods out of my wallet (a non existent one to be infact)

dapper kernel
#

I want the sound but not so loud but i dont know how loud it actually is because all i heard are videos

fluid ravine
#

more like giving a fuller bottom out sound

#

i would say

fluid ravine
#

and try to use less denser foam?

dapper kernel
#

80he comes with tape mod dogekek

fluid ravine
#

then take it dafuq out

dapper kernel
#

I will keep it because it actually look nice with it explaining the kb components dogekek

#

Might give jades a heavier lube, hear jades likes it more feelsgood

fluid ravine
#

then give some thoughts lolz

cedar gate
#

I honestly kind of wish 80he didn't have the rgb bar

fluid ravine
#

hmm interesting

cedar gate

#

pastel vigil
wet depot
#

thing is they feel really gud

#

probably no need

#

idk if they changed their lubing methods but they sound diff from the sound tests ive heard on stock

marsh saffron
#

sounds tests also just sound completely different

pastel vigil
#

sound tests are a stupid lie

#

I am tired of them

cedar gate
dapper kernel
#

Hand lubed is feelsgood

naive sage
#

Did anyone else that built in the Salvation have a more pingy left side of the board as well? My thought is that it has to do with the USB port location, but IDK.

#

It doesn't particularly bother me in any case, I actually kinda like the way my Wooting sounds compared to other customs. It's different.

#

No foam but the included *plate foam, for reference. Jades, etc.

harsh dove
#

Can also try burger mounting it

#

does anyone have any experience ever ordering keycaps from antidote studio?? i tried looking online and a lot of ppl are claiming that it's just drop shipping (which it looks like for some of their items) and to avoid ordering from there.. however for the particular keycaps i ended up being interested in, it isn't anywhere else

#

would love to get them since they'd look really good with my keyboard........ but would love it even more if there wasn't a high probability of getting scammed

dapper kernel
#

Most likely bought from china then, aliexpress, taobao or temu

obtuse fossil
light agate
#

i'll try to look for them on taobao, tried reverse image searching for these exact ones previously.. but sadly nothing came up besides their instagram post

#

..yeah, i sadly cannot find any other place for these keycaps

wind karma
#

they just don't sound pleasing with thosed

As someone who has done/do proper sound tests

#

when I see someone has uploaded a phone one im like why

median spade
#

you just spreading misinformation basically smh

#

man what a good sounding keyboard, what switch???

#

is it the slam 30s??

tawdry tree
#

😂😂

wind karma
#

i'm assuming condenser mics would be most accurate but i haven't tested that yet

tawdry tree
#

Another Jades recolor. Spring is interesting though.

median spade
#

Dual stage spring has arrived to HE

#

Give us opaque top you cowards

harsh dove
#

I know

#

They resist to change the top housing

#

Boutta just buy more jades smh

wind karma
#

a whole ape

median spade
#

Can even be pc still but going from clear to opaque does a lot

harsh dove
#

No more pc

median spade
#

give me nylon

wind karma
#

better sound?

median spade
#

Change sound profile

#

yeah

wind karma
#

ohh

median spade
#

clear top pc notoriously the worst even on the mx side

wind karma
#

well

#

how do nylon tops sound compared to clear pc

median spade
#

depends on the switch

wind karma
#

oh

median spade
#

but can be deeper, and can be more clacky

wind karma
#

so there's no

#

general RIGHT answer to that

median spade
#

Yee

wind karma
#

i see

median spade
#

like oil kings from gateron are deeper and use nylon top

#

but then you have cherry switches, and HMX which are clacky

wind karma
#

yup

median spade
#

oil kings also use ink bottom housing however

wind karma
#

yeah

#

i'm guessing rgb would have to be really strong to get thru that

tawdry tree
#

nylon can be translucent too just not transparent I think

median spade
#

yep

harsh dove
#

You turn it off

#

Like a true enthusiast

wind karma
median spade
#

milky tops are usually a nylon blend

wind karma
#

i meant if you wanted rgb it just wouldn't work most likely

#

im guessing

median spade
#

it would just go through the channel on the switch

harsh dove
#

With opaque no

wind karma
#

cause ive never had an opaque switch

#

Ye

median spade
#

but yeah overall rgb would be hindered

#

or they could do what outemu did with boba

#

have a cut out for rgb to go through

harsh dove
#

With the window

#

Yeah

median spade
wind karma
#

yeah

harsh dove
#

Which might be the case for HE tbh

#

When they finally do opaque

wind karma
#

possibly

#

most people using HE switches are epic gamersz (professional rgb users)

#

probably

median spade
#

when they see the market grow even more to get more sound oriented people iti will happen

#

but for now they know most are gamers like antiq saying and the jades will sound good enough

harsh dove
#

Yep

#

Gotta have RGB for the gamers

wind karma
harsh dove
#

And the fact HE is marketed towards gaming

#

So they gonna prioritize RGB

wind karma
#

yup

harsh dove
#

Let’s 3d print our own opaque tops @median spade

Just wooting plate mount?

But I’m going to order 461E I think

harsh dove
#

Oh but you want plate mount ?

polar girder
#

I also have TXAP plate mount and clip-ins at home

#

Yeah gasket mount, plate mount seems sweet

harsh dove
#

And you just want the knights cause you want quieter right?

polar girder
#

Yeah

#

All quiet everything

harsh dove
#

Was gonna say you could try, bandaid mod and/or holee mod to potentially make them quieter

#

Or even stabilizer pads underneath

#

Like the 80HE has

polar girder
#

I think I just need to buy the 461E

harsh dove

Lmao

polar girder

Gasket mount too good

A lot of people's space bar sounds bad including mine but it's not the stabs usually tbh it's the case and the switches after I swapped the lekker to the jades and put it in a tofu it sounds SO much better

harsh dove
#

It’s because they don’t have GMK spacebars

median spade
#

Pics or didn’t happen

polar girder
#

Mine sounds great

#

But yeah not the stabs

#

So much stab anxiety

#

Just lube them and maybe grease them

#

Get better switches

harsh dove
#

My method is just, as long as it sounds like a helicopter

#

I want my stabs to sound like they’re about to take off

Thanks bro

Just trying to confirm ill be able to get a custom plate for it

Need the plate file from KBD to give to Tom

For the 461E?

if I recall, you don’t need a custom plate?

I COULD HAVE USED THAT A MONTH AGO LOL

#

Uses standard plates as far as I’m aware

#

The gasket just goes between the plate and PCB like plate foam or silicone would

median spade
harsh dove
#

^^

#

That’s honestly what makes it so nice, you have options and you don’t need custom plates for it

polar girder
#

Oh dang really ?

#

Yeah I couldn’t make sense of all that stuff

#

Seemed like just a plate foam replacement

#

Thought plate still needed some custom mount thing

median spade
#

nope

#

you just take your current plate(s) and then put the plate foam gasket in

#

and that's it

polar girder
#

Oh damn ok

#

I kind of want a nylon plate anyway tho dogekek

#

But sweet, thanks for info

harsh dove
#

As far as I can tell

polar girder
#

Idk what that means lol

tawdry tree
#

You’d put it in similar to a friction mount but with this it “clicks” in place seems like.

#

I wonder how hard it is to get out

#

There’s a hook or something included I think.

marsh saffron
#

Probably easier than friction mount

polar girder
#

Gasket mount or tadpole mount??

#

Superior???

median spade
#

with HE

#

not much difference tbh

#

they're both isolationg the plate with rubber or another gasket material

Why are the screw holes in the tofu so hard to screw in

harsh dove

The case basically creates a sandwich

With the silicone gasket in the middle

Clamped down by the top and bottom of the case

#

Can skip to half way

polar girder

Interesting they went gasket mount but screw in

#

Hmmmmm

fluid ravine
#

I just showed my friend that bought me my wooting the nipple case and I said "Look it's a nipple case, I want tat" as a joke of course
But then bro proceeds to order one a few minutes later and say "I bought it, I don't even know what it is for"

“as a joke of course” … “few minutes later says “I bought it””

#

in order for the performance to be consistesnt you need to screw pcb to plate to keep switches as close and level to magnet always

HEless plates when?

tawdry tree

If only sticky rices were stem swappable.

For plateless HE, we’d likely need 3 or 5-pin plastic pins for them to work

I’ve thought about it long and hard and I really don’t see any benefit in Woot’s plate, neither from business nor a consumer’s perspective.

#

Seems like a lose - lose really

polar girder
#

Win win

#

They use existing infrastructure/systems, and get to upsell $20 PC plate

#

Plus customers can have options

#

Steel plate much more user friendly

Fool proof

It’s soft AF

Bro this epomaker board a scam
Although i say this shit was hard as a rock even when they stated it was a gasket mounted keeb, but like bro, even when having the plate assembly with one half of the case with the gaskets, there isnt even any gasket performance in this shit ;-;

Cheap for a reason I guess

gmk67 gasket performance better 💀

@stray tiger Pops I want to use polyfill but I'm worried about the battery, should I be using it?

harsh dove
paper bloom
#

Unless u do a poly fill first then do a cutout

#

But make sure it has some room to breath else if the batt heats up I think thats it

#

Cuz thats an lithium Ion battery and doing a polyfill esp if its above or covered entirely from my knowledge WONT have an issue but the chances of rare blowups or some sort of cable problem cld arise down the line

#

and if u plan to get a new batt Then its a lot easier as well O and don't forget to account for heating properties make sure the polyfill isnt flammable

#

JUST incase if the battery goes

uneven cradle

Just take the battery out because wireless is useless anyway Memes

Unless at a certain temp

If ur friend uses USB ONLY the battery wont do shit

Unless he feels like running a wireless capability then theres something done to it if its removed

fluid ravine
#

What abt dongle

paper bloom
#

U need the dongle for the board which is on the chip

#

If u remove the battery it wont do anything

fluid ravine
#

So the dongle doesn't require the battery?

paper bloom
#

From my understanding if ur talking about the PCB

fluid ravine
#

Yeah ig

paper bloom
#

then yes it needs power/a battery

FOR wireless

BUT idk how the PCB is done from looking at it looks like a regular logitech board

tofu60 2.0 is NOT compatible

tofu60 redux is the redesign of tofu60, with a adjustment to the port which allows wooting pcb to fit easier

#

Hey guys, I finally got the jade switches into my wooting but I have a question. I read somewhere that the jades has to be adjusted at some point, because there is a difference of the activation point due to the larger springs or something

near barn
#

just plug n play, the keyboard will do the rest

near barn
stiff dagger
near barn
#

yup!

#

do note though, because they ARE in fact, shorter, your activation points are much tighter

#

say you set it at 4.0(even though that's physically impossible), it accomodates by making the whole range fit within how far the jades go

#

hope that makes sense

stiff dagger
#

hmmm

#

I'm not really sure

near barn
#

i could be wrong, but in a nutshell i believe ur actuation points are a bit more sensitive(for better or worse)

stiff dagger

I see

#

Well I'll look how it feels and make some adjustments over time if it's necessary
