Didn't mind it flipped, but it looked weird and didn't feel as good as non flipped to me now

cold bloom
#

I just find it’s more natural for me to press when it’s flipped and especially in game I find it’s more out of the way of the rest of my keys so I don’t press it on accident

polar girder
#

Every time I use my frog mini I enjoy it more and more BTW

#

big fan

cold bloom
#

Love that

polar girder
#

I think the frog mini with PP plate and SA profile keycaps does a solid job of shutting up the volume

#

Kilmat in the bottom probably helps lol

#

Kind of want to try black knights

#

Nvm bought them

#

And 35g springs from Wooting

#

Springs for $20 (w/ shipping) is a complete rip-off tho. Tf

Well I already agreed to the consensual hijacking of my wallet. Thanks tho lol

So uh

I got my switches

#

Should I be worried?

#

They came in a plastic bag

When did you start using a computer? Genuinely curious

That’s normal. You don’t pay the premium for a switch tray like with Gateron. šŸ˜‰

Guess you right tho

tawdry tree
quartz jay
# prime orbit

That’s the most normal packaging for switches, you’re fine LOL

tawdry tree
#

Even Gateron’s switches they send in that.

prime orbit
#

This is my first time ordering switches so I was just confused and concerned šŸ˜­šŸ’€

tawdry tree

šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚ All good bro

quartz jay

Yeah it’s okay LOL

wanton dagger
#

How sticky is the adhesive on moleskin? Is there a version I need to buy?

prime orbit

Ok cool cuz I looked at them. They are like pure black it’s perfect

#

Now for them to sit in my drawer in the box until I get my other parts in like 4/5 months šŸ˜­šŸ’€

tawdry tree

But I like that better.

I’ll check again

#

What part should I buy next?

prime orbit
#

Oh Ali question

#

The regular wooting

quartz jay
prime orbit
quartz jay
#

tofu 60 redux is a good pick

prime orbit
#

Yeah I’m getting that

#

With brass bar

quartz jay
#

or the alumaze if u want strap

quartz jay
tawdry tree
#

Alumaze for aesthetics, redux for sound (and aesthetics).

prime orbit
#

No strap for me

quartz jay
#

Ahhh icic

prime orbit
#

But for the regular wooting is the module the same? Like the way it looks. Cuz the module has like decals and stuff and it’s kinda cool

quartz jay
#

is there stuff on the back of the pcb for the module?

fluid ravine
#

Afternoon! Finally got to wake up late propellerman

quartz jay
#

Cuz my wooting prebuilt dont have it (art thingy)

fluid ravine
#

It's on the pcb under your switches

quartz jay
fluid ravine
#

i mean yeah sure

prime orbit
#

No like

#

Here lemme get a pic

fluid ravine
#

you can just take out one switch and there should be a founder's profile/logo on it

tawdry tree
#

If that’s what you wanted to know.

prime orbit
#

Like this

#

Does the regular wooting have the designs?

fluid ravine
tawdry tree
#

The Icons are the same on the Module, 60HE and 60HE+.

fluid ravine
#

pretty sure all PCBA are randomized for every person

tawdry tree
#

Those were chosen by the founders.

fluid ravine
#

^

prime orbit
#

Oh so why don’t I just order the regular one and slowly upgrade it

fluid ravine
#

wdym

prime orbit
#

Like if I get the module

#

Upfront cost is like $300

#

Or I just get the $180 wooting now

#

And upgrade over time

#

Save some money now

tawdry tree
#

ā‰ļøā‰ļø

fluid ravine
#

ermm

prime orbit
#

Am I tripping?

tawdry tree
#

Why is the Module $300??

surreal heron
#

skibidi

prime orbit
#

For everything

#

To build it

quartz jay
#

Oh

fluid ravine
#

I think he meant like spending every parts in total

prime orbit
#

I meant

fluid ravine
#

like switch keycaps case etc

tawdry tree
#

I mean

prime orbit
#

Or will it cost more in the long run?

quartz jay
#

I mean u already got switches no? LOL

fluid ravine
tawdry tree
#

The Module is $150 and the 60HE+ is $180, so if you plan to upgrade everything anyway the Module would be $30 cheaper.

prime orbit
fluid ravine
#

Cus I've done upgrading over time cus the module wasn't out when i had mine

tawdry tree
quartz jay
#

Its up to u really

prime orbit
#

$140

fluid ravine
#

Hence my board is like over a year old

prime orbit
#

Hmm

tawdry tree
fluid ravine
#

So thinking about it my upgrades over time is actually more expensive than buying all the parts and the module

prime orbit
#

Ok nvm im gonna save the $40

#

I’ll just buy all the parts

tawdry tree
#

šŸ’Æ

fluid ravine
#

šŸ’Æ

quartz jay
#

W

prime orbit
#

Plus the module is in stock somehow and the regular is on back order

#

Never understand that

tawdry tree
#

and the 60HE+ comes with a steel plate, so if you’d want to use a PC plate that’d be an extra $20 on top.

tawdry tree
quartz jay
fluid ravine
#

Exactly

tawdry tree
#

they wanna buy something and use it

prime orbit
#

My wallet is crying….

tawdry tree
#

Oh ic

prime orbit
#

Also I know those keycaps are very bad. Just placeholders for now

#

Wait actually

fluid ravine
#

Like let's say you buy switches keycaps plate and like a case that would cost like $300 and you bought a prebuilt which is $180 that would be $480 in total and if you buy the module wwhich is $140? (correct me if im wrong) you would be spending $340

tawdry tree
#

Yes

prime orbit
#

I can just take the keycaps from my hyperx huh

tawdry tree
#

If you buy those keycaps you’d be wasting your money.

tawdry tree
prime orbit
#

Bet

#

I’ll do that

#

Let’s go

#

$10 cheaper

#

I feel better now

tawdry tree
#

šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚

fluid ravine
#

lmao

prime orbit
#

Also that puller I’m getting is literally only for the threshold to get free shipping. Not even sure what to use that on

#

But Kbdfans and AliExpress are like $30 more expensive for the redux

#

Wild

tawdry tree
prime orbit
#

Sweet

#

Kbdfans charging $30 for shipping is wild to me

tawdry tree
#

It’s heavy

#

That’s why the shipping is exp from ae

prime orbit
#

Yeah I’m just hoping Divinikey is reliable

tawdry tree
#

Yeah

prime orbit
#

Honestly tho

#

$270

#

Not bad

fluid ravine
#

Yeah it really isnt

prime orbit
#

And that is everything I need right?

#

I don’t think I missed anything

fluid ravine
#

Hmm

prime orbit
#

Next purchase will be the custom cable and keycaps. But that’s for later

prime orbit
#

Also is the wooting custom cable the best aftermarket cable for it?

fluid ravine
#

To ensure that tachyon works with the board as a coiled cable yes

prime orbit
#

OK cool

I’ve never heard of anyone having issues with PC plate other than the fact it’s just finnicky to assemble cuz it’s soft and limp

Top right, you get this pop-up and you can transfer the ownership which means that if the keyboard is still under warranty you can send it without any issues

Like i said i'm not sure what you're looking for, there are major factors in keycaps that can come up to preferences like keycap profiles, material, themes, etc.

1 keycap for 10 bucks is fucking criminal

# cold bloom I need the full xray set sometime

It’s releasing on the 19th of July, I’m very interested in this kit, maybe not the artisan keycap cuz that would be a little too expensive but yeah $85 for the base kit seems fair to me

cold bloom
#

yeah I love the base kit

#

I'll def get the base kit atleast but I do really like that artisan

#

I guess the extras aren't really that special tho so maybe just base and artisan

remote cairn

Idk when the artisan releases though

Cerakey

Cerakey is the world’s first keycap set made of full ceramic, achieving a next level silky-smooth and thockiest typing experience with enhanced backlit that offers peak RGB show like no other. The alumina ceramic applied ensures excellent wear and impact resistance and cool to touch. Compatible with Cherry MX switches.

Yep.

W lekkers or jades?

But the jades did quiet it down a lot

quiet bay
untold wigeon
#

I think the only person here I’ve heard that has a remotely quiet Wooting is @cold bloom

#

I’m pretty sure it’s his.

that eliminates most of the chatter

#

I redid it like 3 times 😭

I have read about people doing it but you have to be very sparse with it

#

oo

#

maybe one day I'll buy stronger springs

but for now im fine with l60s

untold wigeon
#

It makes the cerakey spacebar feel amazing

#

What country are you in @quiet bay

remote cairn
#

Imagine you get the lightest spring possible and you bottom out your switch with cerakeycaps

quiet bay
untold wigeon
#

Dm me your address and I’ll mail you 5 of the 100g springs. I have plenty extra @quiet bay

remote cairn

I wonder how heavy the spacebar is

untold wigeon

Thanks HAM

untold wigeon
untold wigeon
remote cairn
#

So L35s would work

marsh saffron
#

L45s barely/don't work

remote cairn
#

Wdym?

#

And I meant using a L35 sprint so that it gets bottomed out by a cerakey space bar

cold bloom
#

it won't hold it up

#

so it'll stay bottomed out

remote cairn
#

That’s the point

cold bloom
#

why would you want that

#

lmao

#

it won't work

remote cairn
#

Just for fun

as a spacebar

it'll just be there

#

Ik ik, we were talking about that earlier

wanton dagger

has anyone burger mount their module in an alumaze case? If so, how much different does it sound?

polar girder

Just flutter it, don’t slam it lol

calm pulsar
polar girder
#

Or that two-stage 35g could be good for heavier keycaps

sweet oak
#

Im gonna wreck it

polar girder

Even out the stroke

#

Or any of the two stage springs

#

35g maybe too light lolz

calm pulsar

The most expensive XXL artisan mousepad which is around 50 by 50ish is 60€

Hayate Otsu Mid and Kou Mid

Or maybe just XL I can’t remember, they’re huge tho

#

Yeah they’re xl 49x42cm

They have hardness and size

@harsh dove what do you think? Is that true

He’s probably driving home rn

uneven cradle
#

Some people just prefer a harder surface, like for some the extra soft is a little too soft. I found the soft is a good sweet spot for myself

untold wigeon

I have a tabletop I made for using mouse and keyboard in my recliner that I covered in suede. It’s awesome, but as a mousepad suede is very very very slow. And expensive.

Well yeah, with spray paint. I just don’t want to damage anything. Which is why I asked how I could do it.

harsh dove
#

Maybe PTFE skates would be better

#

It’s leather?

harsh dove
#

I am using glass skates

untold wigeon

suede leather

untold wigeon

#

#

not for gamin

and smells good

#

Then you stinked it up didnt you

untold wigeon
#

lol no

harsh dove
#

lol jk

untold wigeon
#

It just goes away over time

harsh dove
#

Yeah definitely

uneven cradle
#

Careful with the glass skates they like to eat mousepads KirbyEats

solemn plaza
harsh dove
#

Thought V2’s were better

uneven cradle
#

They are but it's still glass vs cloth

harsh dove
#

Yeah

untold wigeon
#

So I would start by sanding the surface from 120-800 grit then they make plastic specific paint. Paint it, clear coat it, wet sand, then polish.

harsh dove
#

Suede is really just destroyed/distressed leather so I’m not really worried

uneven cradle
#

It is a funny combo, the slowest mousepad with fast skates

untold wigeon
harsh dove
#

I’ve yet to destroy a pad with my glass skates

harsh dove
#

But I believe it happens

polar girder
#

I like PTFE on cloth

uneven cradle
#

It's not only just that but v1 skates after just a month slowed down to ptfe level speeds anyway

polar girder
#

Want to try obsidian dots next

untold wigeon
polar girder
#

I prefer the texture of a good hybrid pad

#

But actual mouse feel and control of good cloth

harsh dove
uneven cradle
#

I mean they don't tear pads up physically they just create slow/dead zones on your mousepad over time

harsh dove
#

Yeah makes sense

untold wigeon
harsh dove
#

How hard you press on your pad likely plays a big factor as well

uneven cradle
#

For sure

harsh dove
#

I feel like I don’t press mine very hard

#

But idk

uneven cradle
#

A lot of people like the extra plush mousepads since when you push in harder you get more stopping power

untold wigeon
#

Handle your mouse like you handle a breast. Don’t do to one what you wouldn’t do to another.

well, Wallpaper Engine switches through several different wallpapers you can choose from

so i might as well use it

and correctly set it won't take a lot of resources

yup

fluid ravine
#

What were your expectations

#

Cus mine made a big difference in terms of modding usage on a daily basis back then and sound and feel

remote cairn
#

I was expecting it to be thockier, even a little bit but no

fluid ravine
#

Not everything or one thing specifically makes everything thocky

remote cairn
#

It didn’t change the sound profile or the feel, it changed none

fluid ravine
#

After all even in traditional gummy mount, the o'ring would make the board profile more thinner or lean mostly to clackier

hard moon
#

where did you get the friction mount o-ring from? Given the frequency of mods i need one

fluid ravine
fluid ravine
#

Bakenko60 30a O'ring

hard moon
fluid ravine
#

To sum it up, the pros over tray mount with friction mount would be the elimination of hotspots throughout the board and the "feel".

hard moon
#

i'l well aware of friction mounting and what it does

fluid ravine
#

Friction mount is actually not softer as we say as it's not really a gasket mount since the pcb is sitting on the standoffs and posts but it's not really making direct contact with the standoffs if you're using foam which means the sound of the board is more isolated and more even hence why i said it may sound thinner or lean to clackier i would say

fluid ravine
#

And from my testing and what configs I have done over the past, if you want a softer feel while making sure the case isnt hollow i would use polyfill, thinking of it as a pillow when you're pressing down on a pillow the cotton would push back the pressure to its inital position.

man it's crazy how much variety is in so many boards with so few compatible HE switches

red abyss
#

can i order these on aliexpress or are they fake or something like that?

untold wigeon
#

Real but on the pricey side

red abyss
#

is that expensive?

#

cheapest i saw was 60€

untold wigeon
#

Wait never mind I thought that said GBP

zinc knot
#

that seems like a crazy deal for 70

red abyss

#

I saw them earlier today for $42 usd

zinc knot
#

jeez

untold wigeon
#

$42 for 70

red abyss
#

shit do i order them or not?

#

It's about what I paid for mine

zinc knot
#

that's cheaper than what dashes are going for no?

untold wigeon
#

They are all over the place. I’ve seen them as low as $42 as high as $79

red abyss
#

do i order them from aliexpress?

uneven cradle
#

Depends on the store you order from aliexpress

#

I got mine from Krepublic Store they were legit

zinc knot

Take into consideration shipping times if that means anything to you

riecht halt trotzdem stark nach Scam bei Aliexpress. Da 70 Stk. selbst bei Gateron 56 Dollar kosten

nur gott weiß wenns müll ist gehen sie einfach zurück

hard moon
#

Viel Glück. Mir war das Risiko es nicht wert

red abyss
#

aber weiß auch nicht wie sie sich anfühlen sollen also ka ob sie dann müll sind oder nicht

hard moon
#

fühlen sich halt wie L45/Omnipoints an. Nix besonderes. Besser wirds mit L60 Federn

red abyss
#

hatte nur razer müll bisher

#

hab mein 60HE erst seit heute

hard moon
#

Ja gut, dann wirds definitiv etwas anders sein

red abyss
#

switch puller brauch ich dann am besten auch oder?

hard moon
#

jopp

#

Da reicht die stinknormale 5€ Zange von ebay. Muss jetzt nix besonderes sein, ausser du weisst, dass es nicht bei einer Wooting bleiben wird

I was gonna ask before I got timed out

#

Am I tweakin or are the lotus keycaps legends bigger than normal

thorn zealot
#

I’m not risking another time out

#

Idk why i got timed out in the first place

fluid ravine
#

Huh that does seem a bit bigger

#

If im correct legends like GMK on the W would end at the middle of the keycap if that makes sense

#

unless thats pbt or smth

#

I remember modding a epomaker keyboard for my friend and i notice the legends on those keycaps are bigger than normal as well

red abyss
fluid ravine
#

Prob outdated links

red abyss
#

yeah

fluid ravine
#

Is there a case you're linking for in particular?

red abyss
#

idk anything about this idek any cases besides holy 60

cold bloom
#

there's a new 60% up for pre-order (461e)

#

if you don't mind waiting

#

otherwise tofu redux is solid

red abyss
fluid ravine

Yeah prob the most common case bought i would say is the tof60 redux

red abyss
#

this purple looks so nice

red abyss
thorn zealot
#

These are also pbt

fluid ravine
#

Actually yeah i know PBT legends are thicker than GMK

#

So maybe thats why

#

wait ima look for the pic

cold bloom

oml

fluid ravine
cold bloom
#

purple overload

fluid ravine
#

lol

#

indeed

thorn zealot
#

These custom mx cases are way too nice compared to these cases for wooting

#

Been looking at way too many of em

red abyss
#

do i buy this one?

#

man why do they always only have a single picture of every color

quiet bay
red abyss
quiet bay
red abyss
#

i want this one so bad but its so expensive

cold bloom
cold bloom
#

cause there's so much spring noise from them generally

#

they made a thin PC covering for the bottom of the case I think but it generally doesn't sound great

red abyss
cold bloom
#

fair but if you have jades I just mean you might wanna get a case that doesn't make them sound crappy

#

cause they're nice switches

#

but all up to you obviously haha

red abyss
#

i care more about the look than the sound tbh and if it sounds too bad i can always send it back

cold bloom
#

true

#

alexotos did a video on it if you wanna check it out

#

he used different switches than the jades but just an option

red abyss
#

ill prob just buy a tofu 60 honestly dont want to spend that much but want a alu case

cold bloom
#

yeah i think it's pricey just for looks

#

tofu 60 slaps for a "budget" case

red abyss
#

yh

cold bloom
#

I love my tofu

#

and you can oring mount it and I think it sounds just as good as any 60% almost

#

pretty damn close

red abyss
#

should i buy the weight plate with it if i go for that one?

cold bloom
#

if you can afford it def get it yeah

#

it gives an extra bit of weight to the bottom so it sounds fuller

#

you can fill it in with foam or something else but the weight sounds really nice

red abyss
#

ok

cold bloom
#

the concrete gray colour of the redux is really nice I think

#

I might get one sometime tbh

red abyss
#

man im getting poor if i keep spending money like this on my setup

cold bloom
#

I feel you man

#

I got my wooting not long after the 60he came out and I've been modding it legit ever since LMAO

red abyss
#

i got mine not even 24h ago

cold bloom
#

that's dope man

#

do you have it in person or just ordered?

red abyss
#

i have it already

cold bloom
#

nice

red abyss
#

Only bought different keycaps so far

cold bloom
#

oh right I remember that spacebar

#

enjoy man it's a fun journey tweaking/customizing keyboards

red abyss
#

Was 20$ on Amazon lol needed some asap

cold bloom
#

lmao

red abyss
#

They even forgot to include the 6šŸ˜‚

cold bloom
#

LMFAO

red abyss
#

Now i have a flower instead of the 6

cold bloom
#

I didn't even notice

#

that's so random

red abyss
#

But honestly doesn’t look too bad

cold bloom
#

no I agree lol

#

atleast the 6 is in the middle

red abyss
#

Yh

cold bloom
#

such a weird mix up tho

#

you should message them and be like

#

send me a fkn 6 keycap

#

now

red abyss
#

Nah ill try to get a partial refund as im buying good keycaps whenever i buy a case

#

Partial refunds usually always work if its sent from amazon directly

#

They even gave me a keyboard for free before because they sent me the wrong one

cold bloom
#

yeah that's true

prime orbit
#

I would get the holy60

#

but i heard the sound is so bad

cold bloom
quartz jay
#

what the hell is that case 😭

cold bloom
#

It doesn't sound horrible at the end with the cerakeys

#

but it's just so awkward

quartz jay
#

making it lightweight like finalmouse or sum shit

red abyss
prime orbit
#

eh guess it sounds fine

#

but for the price

#

over redux

#

ehhhhh

red abyss
#

the price is my problem too

cold bloom
#

the sound is meh with regular keycaps

#

the cerakeys just kind of force it to sound deeper but there's still much better options for less money

#

both looks and sound wise I think

lunar willow
#

Which one is more recommended, dual-rail magnetic orange or magnetic jade?

cold bloom
#

jade mostly

steel hemlock
#

Unless you’re getting crazy limited artisanal crafted cases I don’t feel tofu is budget

#

Well then again, it is the keyboard community

#

I feel Tofu60 is really fairly priced for what it is

#

And if you wanted a more budget sleek aluminum 60%, there’s the Poseidon PSD60

paper bloom
#

Psd60

untold wigeon
#

@red abyss I love purple too.

lunar willow
#

Why do some people say that magnetic jade have accuracy problems?

cold bloom
uneven cradle
#

who be sayin that

cold bloom
#

some consider it budget

#

it's kind of on the edge tbh

#

for a custom case anyway

#

59$ for a case certaintly isn't budget unfriendly anyway

uneven cradle
lunar willow
#

Some Chinese players have switched to magnetic jade to play games and found that Valorant emergency stop response speed has become slower

#

Wooting original L60 responds faster

paper bloom
#

Cuz of the long pole

#

When u go down u gotta have more stopping power to go in

#

Since the bottoming is at 50

#

And the transition to go down from ur finger tip when pressed

#

Is when it starts to accelerate

#

If not its the magnetic or the spring

paper bloom
lunar willow
#

Because I also want to replace the 60he with a magnetic jade but I'm just worried that there will be this problem

prime orbit
#

What’s the diff between the Poseidon60 and Redux?

calm pulsar
#

the looks obviously

prime orbit
#

They look the same to me

#

Unless I’m missing some small detail

#

The brass weight I can see more

#

Now

calm pulsar
#

tofu is more blocky I think, poseidon has a bit smoother edges on top frame

#

poseidon has edges smoothed like freebird60 does, but freebird is the nicest looking imo

#

not biased at all (I have it xd)

prime orbit
#

Never heard of it

#

Lemme look

calm pulsar
#
prime orbit
#

Also looks the same to me šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚

calm pulsar
prime orbit
#

Ah wait I can actually see it

calm pulsar
#

but the general shape is similar like the tofu

prime orbit
#

That might be cleaner

#

Hmmm

#

Decisions

#

Smh

tidal frigate
#

You have also holy60 case

prime orbit
#

The price

#

I can’t justify

#

Is there something that shows like every case that works?

zinc knot
#

Personally, I don't think it's useful but it's nice to have on anyway if you're not interested in RGB or whatever other lighting features

calm pulsar
prime orbit
#

Found it

#

This one is pretty cool

#

Yeah so Baka60, freebird, and redux look the best

#

Some other one like frijell was cool but it’s $270

calm pulsar
prime orbit
#

Yeah it’s on eBay

calm pulsar
#

gotcha

prime orbit
#

But it’s overpriced there

#

Line $140

#

Like

calm pulsar
#

damn

#

I meann this case is kinda thin for 140$ lol

#

I think other ones are more value

prime orbit
#

Ye

#

Probably just go freebird tbh

#

The smooth edges are cool

#

And it’s like $30 more

#

Not that bad

#

Although not having the weight

#

Hmm

#

Actually nvm

#

Will redux and brass weigjt

#

Weight

#

The free bird is cheaper

#

Interesting

calm pulsar
prime orbit
#

Gotcha

#

Maybe I can do a mod in the future to add my own custom one

#

Not sure how to do that

#

But that would be cool

#

Actually I could get a laser cut of the brass weight from the redux

#

Then put the brass weight into the free bird

#

I’m a genius

#

Even cheaper lets goooo

#

Hopefully I can sell my 2 hyperx keyboards to fund this one a little lmao

glossy pagoda
# prime orbit

I'm confused about the "ShipTection" listed there... I googled the service but I don't understand what it covers that wouldn't already be covered by basic expectations for a merchant

prime orbit
#

It added itself

#

Tbh

glossy pagoda
#

My expectation as a consumer is that if I receive a shipment that is damaged, or the shipment gets lost, that it's the merchant's responsibility to replace it

#

Are you able to remove it?

prime orbit
#

Yeah

#

It was $2 tho

#

So like I mean

#

Better safe than sorry no?

#

Or is it really the same šŸ˜‚

#

Wait no it’s actually just the same

#

Lmaoooo

glossy pagoda
#

I'd hate to be on the receiving end of "you removed it, get fucked"

prime orbit
#

Yeah

#

It’s $3

#

$2

#

Whatever lmaoooo

glossy pagoda
#

I'd still expect the merchant to "deal with it" if I had a shipping problem, and if they refused on the grounds that I didn't buy extra shipping insurance, that'd be a great time to dispute the charge
