Morning

tidal frigate
#

Hello cammie

mellow spruce
#

monokei has some jjk double shot pbt keycaps

harsh dove
#

I was testing switches for hours last night lol

tidal frigate
#

In what

#

That frog mini build?

harsh dove
#

Magnet compatibility

elfin garnet
#

Why doesn’t it cover the spacebar? My plate from them does

harsh dove
tidal frigate
mellow spruce
harsh dove
#

Yeah

mellow spruce
#

have you tried the everglides sticky rice and ws dash switches yet

harsh dove
#

No

mellow spruce
#

i heard those sound a lot better than the other magnetic switches

tidal frigate
#

What switches did you test

harsh dove
#

Well dashes are just jades

#

Nothing different about them besides color

#

And the v1 Sticky Rice isn’t compatible with wooting but the V2’s are

mellow spruce
#

the dash does have a shorter travel i think

harsh dove
#

No

#

It’s just stem color

calm pulsar
harsh dove
#

^

mellow spruce
#

oooooo ic ic

harsh dove
#

And idk too much about how the sticky rices sound in regards to the V2’s

mellow spruce
#

well they are cheaper than the jades

harsh dove
#

Yeah they are unless you get Jades on AliExpress

#

I think they’re around $40

#

Just don’t buy jades off Amazon lol

#

Overpriced

mellow spruce
tidal frigate
#

Compatible switches list would be available on wooting website?

harsh dove
#

I’d have to check, I think shipping is fairly cheap

harsh dove
tidal frigate
#

Well it is impressive that wooting have so much switches that are compatible

paper bloom
#

If not get jades if youre not in for the wait

paper bloom
#

Sometimes shipping can go as low as 20 bucks

tidal frigate
#

I already have og 60he

paper bloom
#

I meant the switches

mellow spruce
#

are there any other cases that work well with the wooting 60he other than the tofu redux

tidal frigate
mellow spruce
#

what are they

tidal frigate
#

Here

mellow spruce

#

Yeah, eventually the Wootility software will have a switch selector option

#

If you want a simple but premium feeling design I would go with the tofu

mellow spruce
#

if not probably the tofu ig

paper bloom
#

Just get the optimum case

#

Its coming soon

tidal frigate
#

@harsh dove did you get leak diease from calder?

cedar gate
#

If you want something a little more complicated with an accent piece and a carry strap I would get the alumaze

paper bloom

#

its coming out soon after the 80HE comes

cedar gate

#

its gonna be priced as the alumaze

harsh dove
cedar gate
harsh dove
#

Yes

#

It’s a collab

paper bloom
cedar gate

#

The tofu is a 7 degree

#

and theres something cool with it as well

#

Instead of a burger mount method its runned with something way better

fluid ravine
#

MORNING hyper_wah

paper bloom
#

But its close to the burger mount

cedar gate
paper bloom
mellow spruce
#

is the alumaze60 worth it tho

cedar gate
tidal frigate
#

@harsh dove so if someone is whining that wooting sucks saying that wooting supports 90% of he switches is enough?

cedar gate
paper bloom
fluid ravine
paper bloom
#

I used to run the tofu but i left that due to the high degree

fluid ravine
#

;D

paper bloom
#

From that to a 5 degree

#

STOCK WOOTING CASE

#

As insane as it sounds

cedar gate
paper bloom
#

And i do better with it than the tofu for some reason

#

Even with the wrist rest

harsh dove
fluid ravine
tidal frigate
mellow spruce
tidal frigate
#

Yet

harsh dove
#

There’s about 50 give or take

tidal frigate
paper bloom
#

If we compare the supporting its atleast 45%

cedar gate
#

I like the high degree in a tofu as a taller guy so I run that

paper bloom
#

O whoops wrong reply

harsh dove
cedar gate
#

I like the op case more than the alumaze for now

cedar gate
#

The reason I never got alumaze is that it just looked so busy and I liked the simpler look of the tofu

#

But this one looks nice and basic

mellow spruce
#

do you guys think the wooting 80 e looks good?

paper bloom
tidal frigate
#

Alumaze is only good if you make custom strap

paper bloom
#

If you ask me but the reason im not running is cuz i have the lack of space

mellow spruce
paper bloom
cedar gate
paper bloom
#

Or a 65

cedar gate
#

I'm just not an rgb guy tbh

mellow spruce
#

right now i have the wooting 80 preordered so im not sure if i wanna back out and get the 60he instead

cedar gate
paper bloom
#

Esp with or without i just want the delete key

#

and the pg up and down

cedar gate
paper bloom
#
  • i can use 65% cases which are compatible
paper bloom

@fluid ravine BRO IMAGINE

#

MELATRIX CASE

#

WITH THE WOOTING 65%

#

LOOL

cedar gate

and a faster chipset with the 80HE low latency comparison

Thats how insane it is

steel hemlock
#

If I order the Lekker switches, are they the v1.5 or v1 currently

#

I cannot find the information anywhere despite scouring through the discord

paper bloom
#

The new ones that will be selling individual packs will be v2's

#

Sooner or later

#

The 1.5's will be in the prebuilds tho

fluid ravine
#

Just gotta wait....

#

(I'd be impatient AF)

steel hemlock

So they aren’t rolling out the 1.5

super fking soon

steel hemlock
#

Thanks

tidal frigate
#

No problem

steel hemlock
#

So no point ordering L45’s until V2 is out if I have L60 V1

#

Could just spring swap

fluid ravine
tidal frigate
#

Springs are the same. Tolerances are diffrent

paper bloom
mellow spruce
#

anyone else preordered the wooting 80he

tidal frigate
#

Why you are asking

mellow spruce
#

why not wires

steel hemlock

Until they’re out

fluid ravine
steel hemlock
#

Nah he’s the only one to have preordered one

#

Congrats

mellow spruce

yeah im the only one

#

do i get a prize

tidal frigate

@steel hemlock which springs

#

Because I will be getting l60s v2 and l45s v2

fluid ravine
mellow spruce
fluid ravine
#

The founders be like

steel hemlock
#

I’d usually wait for the V2s as I’m using Jades mainly, but they’re for my friend who’s ordering a wrist rest today

#

So instead of paying 20$ shipping for the wrist rest and another 20$ later, we’ll just buy everything today

paper bloom
#

if not a L45

#

Which will be kinda interesting

median spade
#

I have L60 springs in my Jades so yee

paper bloom

#

@glacial wind did your RAW's arrive and did you test them out?

paper bloom

Or is it incompatible

Much better than stock imo, but stock just feels super light

steel hemlock

He had a much lighter Mx keyboard prior

paper bloom
stray tiger
# fluid ravine sno got his yesterday

That might explain the spring ping I was getting then on almost all of mine. Thats odd considering one of the delays Geon stated was to fix the lubing method they used.

fluid ravine
#

Lubing his batch im assuming

fluid ravine
#

Oh wait it was a prototype

stray tiger
#

Not sure about that but Geon himself said he was making changes to the springs and lube method to reduce ping.

fluid ravine
paper bloom
#

lube and perhaps running a diff lube base?

fluid ravine
#

I mean the lube does look really good from sno's pic

paper bloom
#

But if its like too little sometimes it can ping

#

Too much it'll mush

fluid ravine
#

wait whats the travel distance of the RAW?

#

Oh wait i still dont have a switch opener ;-;

stray tiger
#

I checked like 2-3 switches from each bag and when hard pressed slightly off center there was noticeable ping. Other than that I quite enjoyed the sound in hand.

fluid ravine

Thats good

There are pro's and cons about the holy60

harsh dove
steel hemlock
fluid ravine
#

But to me the main focus with that board is just the switch sound itself since the case is so opened

paper bloom

the last thing you want is a dead board due to humidity or if not down the line things are gonna snap as well as water damage from real time liquid

But yea still wear and tear

harsh dove
paper bloom
#

Thats why traymounting to a gasket mount assisted tray shld cook

#

Or something of that sort

tawdry tree
#

You think it was because of the PCB mounts? Or even with plate mounts it’d happen?

harsh dove
#

Well I was thinking plate mounts would but better but I tested it and the stem from plate mounts still hits the PCB and pushes on it

tawdry tree
#

Oh interesting.

#

Kind of odd, the guy’s statement made it seem like it was something easy anyone could do and would work..

glacial wind
harsh dove
#

I’d be curious to see if he still uses it like that

#

And if he actually tested actuation

tawdry tree
harsh dove
#

Or if it’s just close enough that it compensates

#

Cause it does compensate

tawdry tree
#

maybe he has something like foam under the PCB

#

That’s all I can think of

harsh dove
#

Yeah I just don’t know if or how that’d hold the PCB and plate together any better

tawdry tree
#

A bit of force under the PCB maybe, I’m not sure if it’d work in practice

harsh dove
#

Btw thru my hours of switch testing last night, the Neo lavender magnets are really good

#

I’d almost say on par with Lekkers in terms of performance and accuracy

glacial wind
#

Was there ever a magnetic flux listed on the lavenders?

#

I know the raw he seem to be closeish to jades from geons spec list, but I could never find anything for lavenders

harsh dove
#

Not that I’ve seen listed, in our data it’s listed as unknown

Yeah I don’t wanna completely disregard trying it more and experimenting so I’m not gonna write it off just yet haha , I’ll be interested to see what you get

tawdry tree
harsh dove
#

So far , the dual stage springs have been the best in regards to spring ping, at least with what I’ve tested

#

And that’s factory lubed

#

Not saying they don’t still have ping tho

tawdry tree
#

I have 3rd party dual stages and I don’t have Black Jades yet to compare, they are good though.

You get those off AE?

Non magnetic ones?

Lekker V2s, standard with dual stage when?

The keyboard hobby is the most subjective hobby I know of that people tend to speak the most objectively about. Well maybe the audio hobby is close

harsh dove

Audio is definitely in there lol

#

But yeah agreed

fluid ravine
#

mhm

tawdry tree
#

I think every hobby is like that tbh, it just depends how many different factors there are and with keyboards it’s quite a lot.

stray tiger
#

At least with audio you can provide very objective measurements but even they use terms like "fuller" "natural" "realistic" instead of "creamy" "thocky" "clacky"

The spacebar one isn’t required? I never knew this.

No

I never used it mainly cause I didn’t like the sound so I always just used to top left 2 and top right 2

untold wigeon
#

It affects the sound?

#

I never knew that either

harsh dove
#

Yeah tray mount in general is not the greatest for sound

#

Where the PCB is screwed into the plate causes dead sound spots

#

Where it sounds different from the rest of the board

#

Hence why people burger Mount or friction Mount

#

To give a more consistent sound profile

cedar gate
cedar gate
#

You can try for ten years but you will never get the screw in without the standoff I would know I spent a whole afternoon on it before I realized I need the standoff

harsh dove
#

Well the spacebar standoff is required regardless if you’re going to use it for the spacebar screw for the PCB. But the standoff itself is not required if you don’t plan to use the spacebar screw

#

Or in other words, if you want to screw in the spacebar location, then you need the standoff installed. If you’re not gonna screw in the spacebar location, then it does not need to be installed.

In like paint or something

cold bloom
#

yup one sec

cold bloom
# gleaming crow Can you circle which ones

screw into those spots, I thought the top 2 that are in a bit might have needed a standoff but like I think Cam said earlier the ones they include you can screw in are optional if you wanna use the 2 spots I didn't circle. The one in the middle isn't recommended for the wooting as it can mess up the PCB I believe, the bottom near the spacebar is optional but like others have said above I prefer leaving that one out as well

#

so you don't have to screw in any of the standoffs, just screw the small screws to hold the PCB in into the spots I circled with the burger mount

tbf I kinda don't want other keycaps now, not even because its expensive and "cool" in a pretentious way

they just tend to have good designs made by the community and the quality of the plastic is great to me, and also the double shot technology is different from most manufacturers

gmk stem is the same part as the outer shell of the keycap, which changes the typing feel a little bit, and I like it

Most noticeable thing for me is the feel. Tolerances are better/ less wobble than the jades, which were already a step up from lekkers.
