okay thank you
The pink legend looks nice, not too disorientating, might be a trouble for somebody that uses a keyboard for the first time
thinking of getting this for my wooting just cant pick between inverse or normal XD
im on a uk ISO keyboard so if i got that extra UK pack some keys wont be inversed ("£@)
Weird oversight. Normal can do, still.
oh ya
back slash and slash is weird
up to u lmao
its ur board
wooting hub
ive had a 60he for over a year but never got role
connect discord, refresh rewards
ahh alr thx
theres also the gmk singularity
if you like weird placements
but it got reworked a bit which i didnt like
crazy man
is there like a list that i can preview loads of gmk stuff?
either big vendors like kbdfans or geekhack
Guys would u reccomend me this bundle or the wooting Lube bundle with the molykote? wooting one is around 5 € more expensive
and how important is the Switch tool set from wooting is it necessary or is it just a nice to have?
@limpid shore nice to have
But they got a good switch opener which if u have it ur good to go
Since ur kyptox alrsy has a brush its rlly not needed
If u need tweezers for it then idk
The switch pullers metal n plastic
Keycap puller is in the box alrdy
Don't be like me!
No switch opener...
Id rather pop the plate out for the switches
ya but its both plastic
Ye
Wait what the rods arent
Its the handle thats plastic
Why wld u need a even more designed keycap puller when the usual ones are good as it is
Unless ur scared to rub off the inside stem
the rods are gone
Bruh
plastic
its kinda a pain for keycaps with stabs ngl
think my OCD couldnt handle it hahah
hi! I’m looking at some tx ap stabs for my 80he. what size would be compatible, 1.6mm or 1.2mm?
1.6 but i suggest waiting for sw knight restock
haha yes, I was eyeing these for awhile but they were out of stock. is there any updates on restocks?
probably mid oct or even past that
theres no real way to know when the restock is, just sign up to be notified when it does
thats what im doing rn, waiting for a restock and then buying an fr4 plate at the same time
thank you, I’ll keep an eye out
for how many
Geon raw he is 52
RAW HE
its up to you, i dont know much about those cream yellows
Imma do a coin flip ltr
Or ChatGPT 💀
Raw HE
I especially like the novelties, so cute 
Thank you, ill take a look 

Are the SW Knights so much of a difference?
it was very difficult getting tx ap stab wires in
i felt like i was gonna bend the wires ir break the stab housing
Knights are popular because they retain a small housing and stem
Knights, GSV and QMX can fit in any plate stab cutout.
A tad bit better than $5/switch right?
Easier to get sounding great than stock stabs. For the 60HE they are recommended over TX APs because SW Knights actually fit the plate.
also what is that fan
of all their switches released, the Maxes have the most potential imo
and sound interesting at least
ya
it is weird tho
for the maxes every sound test varies way more than others switches
honestly did that set just clone osume dalgona and change the characters lol
prob cause most if not all sound tests of the maxes are absolute shit
even gaterons lmao
especially gaterons 😂😂
i guess it's a tiny bit different
gg
Get these, force break the frog, try some diff plates. GG
oh yeah it is. They're the company that made strawberry rabbit and toffee rabbit to copy osume's dalgona and strawberry milk
then just want for keycaps
🥸

Does someone have a comparison?

TX Stabilizer Tester with Switch Holder
https://divinikey.com/products/tx-stabilizer-tester-with-sw...
Between SWs and TX?
SW and stock
where is this?
Don’t think so but the sound isn’t really the goal
It’s just easier
quicker
to get sounding optimal
PCB mount screw-in stabilizers Nylon stems and housings Rounded stems to minimize interference with housing Silicone double shot layers applied to reduce rattling Great for TKL or smaller keyboards Available in full travel and long pole V2 version- new silicon double shot mold Includes: - 1* 6.25 wire - 1* 7u wire - 4*
Ah okay fair
whats the difference between full travel and longpole
i assumed long pole was what we wanted for stabs(?)
same thing with TX APs but those do sound quite a bit different.
Not many care for stab sound profile as long as it’s clean.
It’s different for different switches
Total travel
full travel is for 4mm total travel switches. long pole is for switches with less than 3.7 or so mm.
ah i see
I have black knight switches. So I want the full travel
long pole stabs aren’t a requirement for long pole switches though.
And I also generally prefer open bottom. But I am curious to get the RAW HE 
im assuming itll be fine for raws since stock stabs work with them
(?)
ur keycaps determine that
depends on your keycaps
ahh okay
as long as its not terrible quality ur good
with stock keycaps it’s fine, with decent quality keycaps it’s fine as well
pbtfan crosshairs should be good caps.. right 😅
yes
And now I’m excited to buy PBS BoB and Cosmos then just wait for endgame switch
Can anyone recomend cheap keycaps that i can pur on my wooting 60he?
do you know if they sell fr4 plates?
Does anyone have a good picture of how the RAWs look with RGB
No clue sorry
ur not gunna get pure pure white
but you can get quite close
Way better
Depends on the stabs you have. I’d start with less rather than more because adding more lube is easier than removing. 😉
Here is how I mod my stabilizers. I get asked this a lot of my streams and honestly, I figured why not just record this so I can link this video instead of having to re-explain it every time. I hope you enjoy it. Please remember this video is only covering lubing and installing, some stabs like cherry clip-ins, you'll need to clip the bottom leg...

Yay!!! New pcb is being sent out to me! Awesome customer service Wooting! ❤️
Straightening the wires out if they aren’t already straight (enough) as can be seen in this vid.
Yeah, if you don’t experience any ticking or rattle, they’re probably fine.
That’s how they come stock. Kry is fine but grease is recommended for stabs without tight tolerances.
new jade max sound test
new fan sound test
idk why gateron just suck at making sound tests
literally
i agree
I really liked the Maxes on the Hall Effect Joystick video
Could be an inconsistent lube job
they dont sound as bad in that video compared to the video here sent yesterday by pierre
i already have raws so
We might need to wait for someone to put the full set into an 80 zinc before we get anything accurate 🥲
and also original jades and black knights so i feel it would be redundant to get them ngl
i was so hyped for it but theres so little information
switch swap is always easy anyway
I think that maxes could replace the original jades, they sounded similar to the RAWs in a different sound test, but at this point idk what they sound like anymore 
i really wanted the “mahjong” sound theme to match my gmk zen pond set but like you said its 50/50
The pros might be better for that theme
I’ve seen some people opt for a different krytox for stabs GPL-206 vs the normal 205g0. I’ve never personally tried it myself, not sure what the difference is
does anyone know why some HE boards cant use other magnetic switches
Magnet orientation and location on the stem
As well as magnet strengths and polarity, but this can be fixed with calibration so long as they aren't too strong
pcb design also matters
@tawdry tree sorry for the ping but Akko yellow sound test pls
for example, drunkdeer pcbs have single hole in the center for the switch
Sup chaaat
In school rn, what we talking abt 
i just finished a test i have no clue
you watch league of legend's worlds?
Lmaooo
?
the new song just drop
Ah
the music and cinematic is nice
and that ends my knowledge of league
School is suffering
Only thing LOL related I watch is Arcane and listen to GOD'S by nj
I fw with arcane a lot
Excited for season 2
Indeed 
valorant music 🔛 🔝
Only good when my DT teacher allows me to mod my keyboard during lesson
Haha real
Never listened to it
DUDE I WOULD DO THAT 
Lowkey music vids bring me the chills
Esp like Die for you
It happened to me once it was the last day of the school year
die for you is one of the best
I actually had to disassemble my board for a CS project
i also quite like superpower
Photos I took for it
Computer science
too many people doing cs majors
Ah yee
I don't like coding :c
Right
How to survive when AI invades Earth 😤
i think they work so well because they dont tie to the game, like if you just played the song, it can be its own thing
Learn how to jail break the AI and put itself into a self repetitive state where it doesn't quite know how to handle the input while outputting garbage that muddles its available memory (all jargon and all lie).
mine too heavy im afraid itll crush my macbook 
LLMAK
How heavy is it
Curious 
its the tofu60 with brass weight
Ah it not that bad 
Just add some scoliosis and you'll be fine
and it has sharp corners so.... (i dont have a carrying case for it)
Wuque studio with some new keycaps today https://shop.wuquestudio.com/collections/zoom75-matching-keycaps-in-stock/products/amber-keycaps
this reminds me of minecraft xray texturepacks
Morning all. Feeling good today, had 2 meetings cancel so I'm pumped
۶🥳 ٩

DHL you for delivery today too so might have time to do some keyboard surgery today too
The mountain teal would go hard with the Jade Pros ngl
Looking forward to cold weather so I can really do some keyboard work but also loving the amazing outdoor weekend weather
Blossom Lilac also has a diamond like feel to it that looks cool
Oh to have cold weather 
damn the font is big
currently 70F in nyc
starting to get colder here finally
85F+humidity in Houston TX rn
texas 💀
Where do u live
quite the high and low peaks
Utah mountain area
I'm jealous, it's going to be between 12 and 15 degrees and raining all week 😦
Eww
Also eww
In fact I'm in this chat right now, procrastinating getting groceries because it's 15 degrees and raining -_-
Bruda erughh
yes finally, autumn time

LMAO
Summer time all day everyday
yikes

kill me
winter >>>>>
Same
best temperature is 50-60F imo
i hate it being over 75+
Winter here is awesome, lots of skiing, sledding, etc and it's the greatest snow on earth, but I fly fish every weekend and winter means no fishing as I'm not crazy enough to ice fish like a lot of these fools.
i barely snowed in NY
Dude I just want the humidity to die here
So for me, winter means keyboard time
I miss old winter 
Old winter?
Ever since COVID it's been hot
Brothers.\
Lol
Yeah it use to be breezy and cold over here in Texas before 2020
Damn covid was so bad it warmed up your state. That's a lot of fevers!
my iems came in
now i gotta meet with my friend who it got delivered to...
I lived in Texas until 2020 and do not remember it being cold haha
I was literally typing that lol
Though I do remember it freezing once, and the city deciding it would be a good idea to spread sand on all the highway overpasses stacked 5 layers high
im prob gonna pick it up on friday
I mean it's frozen the last 3 years there and I only know that because of the major power outages that were reported
Yupp
Cooler than usual. Nice
Yeah fall weather 💀
Can I ask what city in TX?
i cant imagine living there
everyday? like id die
is that high?
We are already getting fall colors coming in. This was last week
this is ours rn
this is the difference
and its all rain
and houston is 60-80% humidity at 100F
most days its 90+ but only hits 100 for the hottest week
last heatwave peak was 107 iirc
I do miss humidity at times. We had to install a home humidifier when we moved to UT because my kid would get nose bleeds and our skin and lips would be dry
nose bleeds are the worst
my brother is pretty prone to them and for the last 7 or so years its a almost a daily occurrence
@calm pulsar you here?
anyone got akko yellow magnetics and a wooting sound test
fellow houstonian
only 63% humidity today, not bad
LOL
@glossy pagoda @left depot hey guys I wanted to thank the team for quickly and kindly servicing my warranty request. @ryosuke was wonderful to work with and was very helpful. There is a reason you guys are number 1 and this kind of customer service is why. Keep up the great work Wooting team! Thank you!
sir this is a wendy (https://discord.com/channels/167181566978555904/984799440072220692)
Yes, they dont sound amazing. Dont suggest them at all
how bad issit?
Not great at all and the switches have no legs which make them sit very loose and rattle a bit
no legs?
DFW
I shared this with Ryosuke, thank you! 
pov: gmmk3p switches
Thank you!
can i still listen
Because you can squize syringe without removing stab
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L5HpiH5jabE magneto switches apparently. havent heard of it before
Review coming soon! I'm in love!
doesn't sound horrible, the spring noises are a bit unpleasant tho
I really wanna try xht-bdz, I just find dielectric grease is either easy to overdo it with or you get some on the bottom of the stem housing and it kinda suctions to the pcb
I think bdz would stick a lot better and should be a bit better than 205 for plastic on metal, but I've heard/seen people use 205 also with good results
Can someone here link the switch magnetic flux tester tool thing for @wise sand please - so he can test the ttc magneto switches. I’m on phone so hard to send a link for me
beautiful scenery!
Hmmmmmmm
You talking about a gauss meter?
what that
GMK Copper r2 coming in Jan. That's pretty hot!
There is like 10% real copper in the accents
Kinda looks like one. Funky angles though. Maybe hyper ergonomic?
Yeah for him to test his ttc magneto press
is the wooting lube set good value, not sure what this stuff usually costs. if I can find it cheaper elsewhere then I'll search around, the molykote is a bit harder to find it seems
Is he in Korea?
Yes good value!
Nah he bought ttc magneto in Australia and is asking in the other channel for it so he can test them
Alright
I was going to suggest Amazon but can't help with Australia. If he has access to certain HE boards, some have a meter/reader in it. You should ping @tawdry tree as he may know which ones
Hrm alright thanks
Ive got access to a Boog75 and Field75 HE
not sure if those may have it
The Boog75 does not for sure, I owned one also. No ideas on the Field75
hmm if the 205 works I'd stick with that, DE works well when it's done just right but I struggle with getting it just right sometimes
it can be not enough to too much a bit faster haha
206 = bigger number so must be better yesyes. Is it thicker maybe?
Phone mic fyi
the mat tho
Actual Copper or nah?
clean
they are shit, even if you were to lube them with the best, most expensive, most rare lube on the planet they’d still sound shit.
i really like the aged deskmat
holy shit
@tawdry tree scroll up, @glacial wind had a question for you about gauss readers on PCB's I think
I can only rule that not being able to test the ttc magneto switch is a sign from god. He wishes for us to only use raw he switches. Amen!
hmmm
i guess i mma go back to praising the lord and saviour
but i swear they dont sound that bad
#🔧│keyboard_modding message there. What do he want to know about Magneto’s though?
He just wanted to check them since their magnet is supposedly 60% of lekker/jades etc
https://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=102917.0 heres their page
[IC] GMK Copper - Group Buy January 13th, Cables, Artisans and Giveaways
They match Jades’ strength almost exactly.
Tiny bit weaker
?? 😅
The Sayo isn’t expensive though so if he doesn’t mind, it’d be good to have someone else test theirs as well.
They don’t sound clean at all, none of Yiqians switches sound clean except for the Silent ones maybe, with a lot of work.
😂
You mean the ttc magneto?
I just want to know where I can find the deskmat and the price 😅
batch 1, its gone
GMK Copper is the ultimate crossover collectible, unifying the colorway of humble coinage with statues and patina. Its art deco aesthetics and scientific references pay homage to Cu. Make your desktop a monument to electrochemistry with this thought-provoking keycap set. metallic evolution Copper is, perhaps, the most
Odd, since they claim so much less magnetic flux bottom out in their image
Thanks you 😅
Do they ship in Europe/France ?
Yes
their original vendors
r2 might be different htho
Following in Kailh’s footsteps perhaps.
thanks you ^^
hm ok
ok ordered the geon raws
@glacial wind here are the manufacturer numbers
Gateron KS-20T / Jade North Pole 30±7gf 50gf 3.5±0.2mm 120±15Gs 700±80Gs Linear
TTC Magneto North Pole 35±5gf 3.5±0.2mm 90±15Gs 480±60Gs Linear
Europe link doesn't work ;-;
ya its their round 1 vendors
in 2019 i think
Yeah that matches what they list in their photo with being way below the other switches flux wise
Now add the Kailh numbers to that and the circle is complete lol
Being low is fine as long as its not so low that the sensor can't record full travel. Have him go test that here https://analog-monitor.wootility.io/
Magnetos work perfectly
Many use them
Kailh specified 2000Gs at bottom out iirc
and they’re only strong enough to actuate until 2.75mm or so
Same with the Outemu pinks. rated to 2k and max out early
GEONS ARRIVING LESS THAN 24 HOURS WOO
Yeah, those are way weaker
Might be something specific with that magnet. Are the magnets the same size between the 2?
Pink/Beiges are advertised as 2800Gs right?
Don’t know how tall they are but the diameter looked similar. One sec
Yes, and are fine but the magnet is also standard size. So far only the pinks have that tiny magnet but I also dont have the Kailh to compare to
Smaller stronger magnets when??
You dont need stronger
Need same gauss less mass
Less mass bro
KS-20s’ magnets have a diameter of 3mm and look to have a length of 3mm as well. Magnetos, Kailh’s Flame/Mistral, Outemu Pink/Beige and all Gateron’s except for 37 series all have magnets with a diameter of 3mm. Even the finish (those lines) of the magnets looks identical.
I ordered a PP plate for my salvation from hypekeyboards, pretty stoked to try that
although alu has been great so far
https://x.com/steelseries/status/1838579436590870858?s=46&t=uFrAs-7GGUduYiIB1-Qdbw They used “Switch Stabilizers” as a pro of their keyboard lmfao
SMARTER. FASTER. BETTER.
welcome the next generation of Apex Pro ⌨️
available now: https://t.co/149ktAQeIc
I’m dead 😂😂😂
per key lubrication is diabolical
per key?
And then it will still sound bad 😂
that looks... interesting....
NEED
those key caps are not it
Who’s actually buying it here
wait
Bro I have 60HE
I bought 10
are they calling plates switch staberlizers?
im buying 20
Took them a year to figure out
for the memes
💀
The plate does in fact stabilize the switch
indeed
wait till they call the case a pcb staberliser
Can you at least hotswap it with geon raw?
Doesn’t look like it.
uwaa~
how much?
My friend said that it looked like Steelseries is using 37B switches so
🤑🤑
wtf
👏
That cost AS MUCH AS 80HE SHIPPED to my place
matter of fact, I bought 30
bulk discount pls
worse software, maybe no hotswap. No thanks
Geon has better tolerence
Anyone have a photo of PBTfans Neon R2 on board with lighting behind them?
It’s only a matter of time lol
Thanks
the detect game is nice tho
hope they dont mess it up
probably should get people from each game to help them
worse on all fronts with a bigger price tag, the audacity
at least the per key lubrication is nice
🤪
I rather have Igor lube my switches
Yeah see I want 1mmx1mm magnet with same gauss
WHEN?!??
your obsession with light weight mice has ascended to keyboard switches, gg
How much does a 3x3mm magnet weigh even
I have one
The answer: too much
I just think it would help so much with acoustics if half the mass was slamming around
The feel of lighter weight would be nice. But I think that is like the next level of HE
magnet optimization
😂😂 bro
they weigh less than a gram
my scale stays at 0
💀
are the wooting magnetic wave keycaps good?
If you mean the quality, yes.
Very.
Do they feel nice and do they have an effect on sound?
How much does the stem weigh?
That could be the case. Try removing a magnet, see how they sound then. 😂
lol
Sec
Well like, there’s lots of other improvements to be made also 
Sure you can make them stronger or smaller, but with tech today youre talking more expensive materials and processes. All of which would make your switches extremely unaffordable.
Both the KS-20U’s stem and the Zero Degree’s stem read as 0, my scale might just be dogshit because together they read as 0 as well.
Same thing with a weight and the stems. Reads as 6grams with or without the stems.
Anyone got a good precision scale recommendation?
Id think any jewelers scale would work and they are cheap
Get something that goes down to like .001g
Will do
wait
This spring is only available for GEONWORKS HE switches or Gatron HE switches and cannot be used on regular MX switches. 1 PACK = 110+5 SPRINGS : HE-compatible spring made of a special non-magnetic material that does not nourish the Hall sensor.: It is characterized by virtually zero ping even without lubrication. Mate
@calm pulsar @harsh dove
they got that gold plate ready to go
pingless tho
he was showing off some mx ones on stream but I'm surprised to see HE came out first
Day 3 of the project 80he thocky asf what should I add or remove guys
Probably not raw hes if you want thock
Raw HE isn’t thocky
neither are Cream Yellows
Get Lekker V2s or Black Knights
Just stick with lekker v2s
Or “monochromes”
did he explain the cause of spring ping and why his pingless springs don’t ping?
No am tryna get like a thock poppy sound
My man
TTC Magnetos?
Never seen those

Oo that’s another good option
It’s a Raw HE black knight Frankenswitch
Not cheap
How much
Like a $/switch
So I wanna go for a pink build on my 60he but I am not sure what case to go with for starters...
Ey on the bright at least it’s cheaper than the $5/ switch
Worth?
Redux is the most basic
I don't worry about basic I want good looking.
Check the Tofu Redux out
reduced travel + o rings?
Or the Alumazu, comes in pink as well
Wdym
@hollow smelt has a pink 60HE
oooo
you have the geon raws
just use the discord search function for from: and has: images/attachments
O-Rings reduce total travel slightly and with the Raw HEs (which already are 3.5mm or something switches) You’ll have a very reduced travel.
nvm ^
😉
I like that case.
its the Tofu60 Redux, like what others said its basic but good looking, sharp angles
only for zinc anyway
Ok then am good
i have the zinc case and there seems to be no ping
Okay sweet, I wasn't sure how good it really does look. I just don't like how much I have to pay in shipping cost.
I don’t think it has ping
ya the force break is to remove ping
case swapping the 60HE is really simple, just 5 screws (or 4 if you dont use the spacebar one)
Ye
for keycaps
well that is good to know that thank you. I am new to this whole moding keyboard scene.
of course, we all start somewhere
theres a lot of options and materials
i didnt mod my first keyboard till last weekend
pbt is good for thock
I just don't want something heavy.
but abs has more options for design
oh… then it might not be a good choice to case-swap
just invest into some good ones
how heavy is the redux?
its in the desc
theres 3 types
and a weight bar
so all different
I got some random ahh dye sub ones
the full aluminum case is pretty heavy, .8kg without the weight
Pbt
that should be good for thock ya
There is a acrylic version of the tofu redux
That is due able for me.
btw without the weight
Yep
I don't want the weight.
I might remove the o rings just in case the reduced travel actually kills me
fully built it should be closer to 1.1-1.3kgs
That is still lighter than my other keyboard.
if u going for an already short switch ya
the lekkers is full length
then it should be fine 👍 go with the tofu
Yep removed it from list
Okay, then I will go from there with doing keycaps and switches after I do a case change.
cos the sound might be weird with the space
he can just straight transfer the foam from the stock 60he, no?
(i cut that shi up and stuffed it inside my spacebar) 

if it works it works
its the sticky side too so i dont have to worry about it falling out
i just need to do wire tuning or swap with sw knight stabs
if you have any questions in the future, feel free to ask here
List updated ig
Oh don't worry I will.
geon raws arent thocky 
Thock high pitched poppy
Yes, very. swap the springs while you are at it too
thats called clack
I already have dual stage springs in mine. Would probably just reuse those unless Geon Pingless springs are goated
What did it change for you?
I meant if you just had the default springs in. I swapped in 80g springs into mine
90% sure i flunked a test 👍
(i was too busy studying the wrong thing) <- 60HE+ mods
I play video games 24/7 and I somehow get like 70-80% everytime
Right
i had straight 95s in highschool doing this
This isn’t a flex u should’ve dropped out
i miss it 😔
Mhm
💀 i mean its wtv, first test of the semester
highschool was so simple ☹️
Fr
The biggest thing on the monochromes is once you start your press there is no wobble, only a little bit just at rest but once you actively press the key there is no wobble at like any point in travel including fully bottomed out.
And then all went down hill
I don't miss it, its badddd
Soo many depression, until covid came then I'm the happiest man alive
all i did was go to class go home play video games and go to sleep
and repeat
EXACTLY
School bad
Hell yuh
YOU DONT REVISE FOR END OF YEAR EXAMS AND SOMEHOW GET 80% or more
So I have a question I know they provide all the information of compatible switches but I don't really know what all the numbers mean. Could anyone break it into potato language for me if possible?
Guys, does wooting module has good enough stabs or should i get something else? Like knights v2's
From what I’ve heard the stock stabs are great and rarely ever need to be tuned
Personally tho mine are getting progressively more pingy
Oh, amazing
Oh, not amazing
Will see, thank you!)
can you show what numbers youre talking about?
Which ones
theyre great and work fine if you tune and lube them right
I don't understand any of the numbers that is my problem so I don't even know where to start when looking for a switch I would like. I want something more on the soft quiet side.
quiet.. you want to stick with lekkers
Sounds worth
To me the lekker that come with the keyboard by default don't feel balanced on the sound ratio from key to key.
Then hand lube them
its like that for every switch
easier said then done. I have no knowledge of how to do that even if I wanted to.
I will have to listen to it in a moment I don't have my headphones on give me just a moment
Well I mean it is close to the same problem so I guess it wouldn't matter what switch I go with. I just don't like the sound of the default switches in general.
what dont you like?
its because any switch in any spot will have slight deviation from eachother
Oh that makes a lot more than what I was thinking. But I like your keycaps.
thanks
What would be the difference between the lekker60 v1.5 and v2 do you know? If not I will research it.
better tolerance so less stem wobble
genuine question what is stem wobble?
move your keycaps around
it wobbles
oh that. I don't like that.
theres just less on the v2s
Oh that is nice.
I thought the keycaps moved to much.
Now I was looking at the Tofu Redux case, I noticed they have an option for the FR4 ANSI Plate and the Carbon Fiber ansi plate, what is the difference. I wasn't seeing anything. Also sorry if I am asking dumb questions.
80HE comes stock with stab pads but you could try 3rd party ones
fr4 suppresses some sound made by the switches and carbon fiber isnt needed for what youre going for
the price tag 🤣
^ best to look up video comparisons for this
So does that mean the brass plate does the opposite.
i dont have the brass plate so i cant tell you anything about that
carbon fiber makes it louder, thats all i know
Oh then I don't want the carbon fiber.
Wait wait wait wait WAT
SHOW
If u can
Oh okay...
Pretty sure it shows on the site as well
Cba to take it apart rn but in the factory tour/vlog you can see them
My current one doesn't move at all. so I am not worried about getting one.
oh the brass weight? 😅
so do i
i thoguht he was talking about an actual brass plate
I actually never knew
I don’t see it but meh who cares
No I was meaning the brass weight.
it fills the void becuase theres like a 1.5cm(?) deep hole in the center of the case
bros got the tenz edition 😭
i didnt even know he had them till after i bought it
(hint: i dont watch tenz)
How dare you not view my gracious king Tyson Ngo’s media
I am not gonna watch tenz...
he has the same keycaps
(And case)
PBTFan Crosshairs
me when i only play fortnite: WHO IS THAT
cablemod pro on amazon but theres a cheaper version of it
Bad cs pro from tier 3 that went playing valo because he couldnt win nothing
the case is common, i havent seen a lot of keycaps around
hes basically like the ninja of valorant
right ok
for no reason whatsoever
Can someone help me find dynamic tripsiclopyde switches for my wooting 92he+
popular among gamers maybe ive barely seen in it the custom scene
I have these GEON RAW HE switches and I was asking myself if I should remove that see through thing at the top. Can someone tell me if I should take that off?
do the jade and jade pros sound the same?
light diffuser, why do you want to take it off?
someone hsa the exact same build in #1070668460905988106
I don’t know I have the option to so didn’t know what it was for
The thing on the right
diffusing light
spreads it more
yeah so popular among gamers
i got it cause it matched my setup
¯_(ツ)_/¯
i mean im not saying it looks bad
i like the look of the keycaps
what mods would you guys reccomend for the 80 He?
how abt lube on switches and stabilizers?
i have WS v3.1 silicone 1.6mm, but idk if those work with jade switches, they should work fine with lekkers
Anyone have any coiled cable suggestions that work?
wooting has cable kits
and they just work
anyone here ordered from kbdfans before?
EVEN USING IT ON A SMART PHONE WORKS
Sure they have them and they work but a little pricy...
oh ok
yeah idk these require a very specific rating to be met
you could get a high power coiled cable for cheap maybe idk tho
maybe cablemod?
ya y?
wooting is good with cablemod yeah?
how long does it typically take for your order to update? its been like 4 days and nothing
how many days exclusing weekends
2
update as in?
Imo, if you have Black Knights, might as well get Raw HEs. Even if you end up not going with Monochromes, Raw HEs are still nice to have/to compare with.
status has been "order placed" since like noon of friday
He did but I didn't listen to the whole thing, he got into diameter and spring length etc and explained how it helps
Yeahhhhh
Should I buy the pingless springs too then? Lol
go big or go home
True
as in its confirmed?
I’ll check the stream later
I’m curious now
lol
ye email confirmation and paypal receipt were sent to me
you didnt buy something that is a preorder or a group buy right?
what did u buy?
no everything was in stock
light blue and white keycaps look great
$56 for Jades, not even Jades Pros. $56 for Jades when they sell Raw HEs as well. 😭😭
checked ur spam?
I only heard about the Raw HE like recently 😢 but I dont wanna cancel
ye
will do ty
filipino, do your thing bro!
dw its preference
the jades are good
jades are good as well
what is the diff between jade and jade pros?
Tolerances
What does that mean in potato brain?
reduced stem wobble, cleaner sound and improved spring for rebounding
Don’t think so
you have to order thru gateron i believe
Okay
google "Gateron Jade Pros" and you should find em
if you try to go thru their website directly its not there for some reason
I can’t decide between jade max and geon raw 🥲
Or will i wait for semi silent Jades? …
Depends on your budget and what you want
there isnt any good jade max sound tests out
RAW is good if you want something low budget and sounds nice/has the best tolerances
Geon did a sound test between the RAW and jade max and they almost sounded identical, but there hasn't been a test of them thats been consistent ;_;
okay so hopefully this is the right place to ask but i just finally made an order after contemplating for a long time and now i have no idea what keycaps i want, i currently have some regular double shot pbt and hyperx pudding keycaps but i was a nice set and haven’t found anything that isn’t group buy or has an extremely long waiting list, i would really appreciate some help or suggestions
it might take some time before you find some you really like, but this link is worth the rabbit hole exploration 😄
id also check r/mechmarket for any GMK sets, they got some wild options
Thanks for your input. I don’t mind paying extra if the product is better. From what I saw there isn’t a huge difference but the transparent housing. This might be worth it for nicer RGB?
Also in some YT videos the max sound a little deeper? But no one can confirm that, right?
I've been kinda fiending for any Jade Max content since I've liked the Jade sound profile since I heard them. I haven't found anything super concrete yet, they all sound very different which is a little disheartening
You probably wont go wrong with it, but they are a tad expensive
I am currently in a 3 way deadlock between the RAWs, Pros and Maxes.. It hasn't gotten any better lol
Gateron did release a new sound test for the maxes, but it might not be a 1:1 for your 80HE
Why could you prefere the pros over the max?
The sound is brighter and more clacky than the Max
But the real reason, is indecisiveness
Keyboard doesn't arrive til mid November so having too much time to decide hasn't helped my cause
And theres a decent amount of videos show casing the Pros on the Wooting so you have a decent idea of what you'll get. Cant say the same for the max yet
aliexpress
Im using the 60he right now, with the original jades. So I might use them right away.
I’ve seen somewhere that there will be silent jades. Are they confirmed somehow? Can’t find much when looking for it on google
I think they're called the Enlightenment switches?
3:25 Five Gateron Magnetic Switches Comparison
4:55 Sound Test of Gateron Magnetic White, Jade, Jade Pro, Jade Max and the other switch
6:23 Gateron Magnetic Jade Max
6:37 Gateron Magnetic Jade Pro
6:50 Gateron Low Profile Magnetic Jade
7:00 Gateron Low Profile Magnetic Jade Pro
These are all Gateron KS-20 compatible magnetic switches, so they ...
They aren't silent apparently so no luck yet
Hmm, wonder if AliExpress would hit EU with import duties for Geon Raws
theyre not silent
the fact that that was a choice you thought about for 2-3 days is crazy
you made the right one though, eventually
😌
Ik bro
Just wanted it to be perfect
what is the difference between multi stage springs and just a longer one? i want to know which fits more for my use case
just the 22mm ones from ae we have been linking around
He is going to regret not getting the yellows
Idk
😂😂😂(yep..)
If I mess it up obv
And not get the sound I imagined
A multi stage spring makes it so the pressure required is more even throughout the travel.
Whereas a normal spring requires less force at its resting position than at bottom out.
ahhh
for analog movement which would be better then? long spring correct? im planning to use dual stage springs with my raws then long springs for my black knights
i saw bigsly talking about it before
Preference, some like the consistency of dual stage and others don’t. 😂
I like them though but I don’t play racing games or something alike.
regular/long springs would be nice if your analog curve is aggressive I think
and linear or close to linear for dual stages
you can get a few to try out on AE
You can send that store a message along the lines that you’d like to buy 10pcs of this or that weight in dual stage and longer springs.
Question what’s AE
I got mine from geon's site to Canada in like 2-3 days lol
but there was some duties I think like 15$
Right
Didn’t know there’s a short form
i got it from divinkey in a week and a half (free shipping cause i spent +100 there)
aliexpress 💯
oh i see
The 80HE already has half the stuff on your list pre-installed.
It already has tape mod, force break mod, stabilizer pads, and you can’t O-ring mount the 80HE
“Painters tape”
Getting new stab pads
Not oring mount you o ring in the keycaps
Fair enough
And the force break mod is just putting tape on the case
hmm I forget exactly, was like 20$ or something?
still worked out to less than getting jades shipped to me from a Canadian site
yeah
thankfully the switches overall are cheaper
shipping to Canada sucks lately
maybe deskhero will have them soon
how is shipping on divinikey?
to Canada?
Yo
You have the frosted case and a white zink one right?
idk if it's any better/worse than geon shipping
theres a list somewhere here
i bought 4 and have 11 as backup
Theres a sound test on the 80he thread with the zinc case for the maxes
ill check it out
Yeah I have 3
remove keycap orings
raw he isnt what id consider "thock"
pe foam can serve to detriment thock depending on what type and where
"lube springs somehow"?????????
u dont necessarily need molokyte, any dielectric grease/substitute can and will do
stabilizer pads are shit
the one u want
there is no such thing as a ubiqitous answer
because if there was
there would only be one spring weight
50g
but depends on the market
How do I get my spacebar to sound indentical on both sides without screwing too much or too little? Is there an easier way or do I just keep rescrewing
any new switches that is breaking the market rn?
GEON RAW HE

do ur screwins have washers

u shouldnt overscrew
do I even need it?
Plate screws?
i appreciate the ping 😎
this is the pink tofu 60 redux
looks great imo
i wanted light pink but was out of stock but the pink looks great
I was gonna go with light pink
yeah light pink im interested in
definitely curious how light it is
the normal pink is very light as well
i think either way you go it’ll be good, if you want darker color spectrum elsewhere like on the keycaps go pink, for lighter like white i imagine light pink would be good
unless you’re doing full pink, in which case, very based
Nah I am doing the Light Pink with White Keycaps
Need an opionion on something Tofu60 Redux Case with the brass weight is it worth adding the brass weight

that what im sayin
