U gotta say which model and which one u got

#

To seperate it cuz thats what i did

fluid ravine
#

he bought his first

#

then mine

#

then a month after another one for him

paper bloom
#

Then ask him for the order that was seperate

#

and u can register from there or follow the wooting FAQ for it

fluid ravine
#

yeah i just dmed him

#

i think hes sleeping rn lol

I just bought the PSA1+ cuz it was on sale

fluid ravine

o

paper bloom
#

if im not wrong the orig price for me was like

#

258

#

I got for cheap for like 200

fluid ravine
#

o

paper bloom
#

or the one with the XLR only?

velvet raft
limpid crown
#

Guys does tape mod gives more sound or does it dampens it ?

#

i have mixed feelings about it and can't analyze it through sound

fluid ravine
paper bloom
#

Yea then its cheaper

fluid ravine
#

oh wait

#

i read that wrong mb

velvet raft
#

Yes like 30a or 70a

#

All good

fluid ravine
#

so the lower the number the gummier (softer) and the higher the number the stiffer (harder)

robust siren
fluid ravine
#

30a being the softest and somewhere at 70a being hardess

jade storm
fluid ravine
#

but for friction mounting it won't make a difference (which i appologize but i won't be going into details as i've typed like paragraphs of the same thing before)

fluid ravine
limpid crown
robust siren

@limpid crown

fluid ravine

fluid ravine
#

the more you take it out

#

the easier

#

due to the clips being worned or shave down a bit

robust siren
#

yes

fluid ravine
#

it was stupidly hard on pc plate for me but not the plates fault

#

but worst part is the plate flex

#

made it harder to take out

velvet raft
limpid crown
robust siren
#

(i never used the tx ap stabs cause the wires just wouldnt go into the plate stab holder)

fluid ravine
#

The mounting itself causes or allows the pcb, plate, and switch sound become seperate from the case due to it not making direct contact. But this is for traditional gummy mount board speaking like bakeneko, unikorn, etc.

robust siren
robust siren
#

also installing it on thursday

velvet raft
#

So softer (30a) has a more mushy feel and i would assume more thock? Then harder (70a) is more like a traditional screw in mount feeling and sound is more clacky?

#

Or I am just misunderstanding and 30a-70a has no effect on thock or clack its just changing the cases impact on the sound

fluid ravine
#

im just screenshotting all the things i wrote about gummy mount and friction mount (fyi theres a difference between the two)

got reminded that venom60he has proper gummy oring cutoutsblobaww

#

Yoo

#

I have a wooting 60 he and i also have a custom keyboard of my own. The custom keyboard i have is a devastating tkl, but i was wondering if lekker switches would be also compatible with the devastating tkl pcb

hard pier
#

I have no idea

#

Tbh

wild lance
#

Wooting module arriving tomorrow, any recommended mods to do with it?

hard pier
robust siren
#

its probably just a normal mechanical keeb

#

then

#

i see hot-swap and solder

#

pcb options

#

and magnetic switches dont need solder

hard pier
robust siren
#

yeahhhhhhhhh its probably not magnetic switch compatible then

hard pier
#

I dont wanna break bank just to customize another keyboard 😦

#

Mods for my custom keeb

  • lubed and filmed KTT Kang Whites
  • millmax new pcb cuz old one bricked due to me spilling redbull on it
  • put in new cherry clip in stabs (lubed and tuned)
  • rebuilt the board with new pcb, new switches, foams, added more o-rings to the burger mount, and force break mod to reduce hollow sound of board
robust siren
#

but it being a 60he, doesnt quite fill the tkl case SwitchyCry

robust siren
#

i mean

#

technically you can use the cause but the itll just be wasting space

#

and 2 major voids

#

if you want to still use the case you can probably make some covers for f row and the others places and go to a shop to paint match

#

Does anyone think its worth changing stabs? As well as what plates does everyone like? Im gonna be trying the cf plate in a holy60 build

honest nacelle
#

but maybe try alu instead of cf

#

makes the already clacky switches sound very high pitched and overall not great

#

especially for the holy60

#

which already sounds very high pitched due to the lack of a solid bottom

wonder if they have more colors

crimson sky
#

ah 💀 it is traymount

glacial wind
#

yeah has to be to be 60he compatible

#

i assume the gasket looks like some sort of similar to 80he gasket solution

crimson sky
#

Clueless it could be top mount

#

or gasket mount

#

or literally anything else

#

just needs a semi-custom plate

glacial wind
#

it definitely has a gasket option since that's the one on show at the show, but looks like a very stiff gasket to not interfere with HE stuff

crimson sky
#

yea but if you hard mount the plate/PCB assembly to the case it will still feel quite bad

glacial wind
#

yeah i don't think anyone is keen to do full gasket on HE anyway because it jsut messes with stability

do the geon raw he 40gf feel lighter than lekker45 or are they about the same?

it also has a lighter starting force

is 5g noticeable? im new to switches

robust siren

probably not

ok thanks

robust siren

but geon raws 🔛 🔝

I guess whether it will cause any issues depends on your RT settings - I went with 50g bcs I wanted something lighter but I have a RT sensitivity of .2

#

Don’t want to fat finger the movement too much with a lighter switch

pretty amusing it seems it started with 0.1mm deadzone similar to wooting, then they tested removing the 0.1mm deadzone and while it measured amazingly well on tests it caused performance issues so they put it back again

#

so seems they ended up going down same route as wooting where removing deadzone just to win the tests isn't worth it

me too soo, I got them for the sound, and I keep them for the rgb

the sound is very noticeable too yeah

the annoying part about them is that they fit very loosely onto the switch plate but very tightly with the keycap

i couldnt remove the keycaps without the switch comming attached

for like 90% of them

check space for warping, stabs if the move smoothly

it's the backspace, i do not notice any wrap visually

im waiting for some screw in sw knights, should be better right?

well you dont need them, if you lube and balance the stock stabs its pretty good

but they already are lubed, not being balanced can cause the tick?

Hi guys. This is my first custom keyboard. I just ordered the 60he+ module and case but im wondering what switch i should get to get a "thockier" sound. I'm thinking of choosing between the geon raw HE vs the Gateron Jade Max. Would love some input on this thanks!

ionic breach
#

not the max

stone flax
#

but just keep in mind

#

one switch is 0.48 cents a switch

#

the other is a dollar a switch

and has more wobble

I don't really mind the price. Just want it to sound good haha

they are pretty good

I'm currently using a a75pro and i really like the sound profile of that keyboard and i'm trying to replicate it 😢

and half a dozen things different that would make it difficult for u to make em sound very similar

Long live the new buzzword

#

GMK cosmos needs to add that to their marketing

hidden sun
#

Hi, I've been seeing a lot of keyboard brands marketing their keyboards with "8K polling rate" as if it was a mandatory feature for everyone and a dealbreaker for some keebs with 1k polling like the wooting, my question is, is 8k polling rate all that or just overhyped? I have a razer basilisk v3 pro, capable of 8k but I don't think it's worth, not only drains my battery life, it drains more power from my cpu and I can barely, if at all, see the difference

#

Maybe I'm contradicting myself saying it's not that amazing and actually wanting to hear about it, but it's such a "trendy" feature

austere creek
#

8k polling doesnt say anything about the realworld performance of a keyboard

calm pulsar
austere creek
#

i can make an 8k polling board and have it internally just scan all keys once every second

#

so while youd pc asks the keyboard for new data 8000 times a second well... no key changes for any of those polls

#

what you really want is a high polling rate, high scanrate, low to no debounce time and fast usb packet assembly in the mcu firmware

hidden sun

#

the main benefit of 8khz polling and a higher scanrate of the keyboard is that the deviation becomes tighter

hidden sun
austere creek
#

so if you consistenly press a key each lets say ms and somehow measure the latency from start of press to key received then that time will vary little from press to press

hidden sun
ebon quiver
#

i think of it as something that IS better, but not something i'd be able to realistically perceive

hidden sun
austere creek
#

youd still have the ever so slight edge which (i always say) you cant take direct advantage of but it may or may not be why you won a firefight

like if your top 1 priority was a keyboard with 8k then ye, but it doesn't seem to be the case here

austere creek
ebon quiver
#

also with 60he you can consider custom cases availability and such if you're into it

hidden sun
ebon quiver
#

^ me when i go back to 60he

#

if i didn't need f row and arrows i'd stick with 60he too

hidden sun
#

AHAHA, I'm a total noob in the keyboard enthusiast thing but I completely understand, I have a full size, I use it up to TKL size at best but I think I can manage and make a 60% work (I'm not that dependent on f row, arrows? a little but if I make mod tap work, no worries), I'm counting on the wootility software to ease up my worries about going from a full size to 60%. I've seen and heard people say they are more efficient and faster since they switched to a 60 rather than TKL or even full size (less hand movement, everything's more centered)

ebon quiver
#

and if you haven't used 60% layout before you may wanna consider the fact that there's no delete key, no print screen key

#

you have to use function key to get them

calm pulsar
hidden sun
hidden sun
calm pulsar
ebon quiver
#

but imo not a big deal, the software allows you to get access to them in variety of ways

for example i have mod tap on my left windows key, if i TAP the key it acts as windows key, if i HOLD the key it acts as function key

function + tab is print screen for me, function + 12345 are f1, f2, f3, etc

#

one can even argue that pressing left windows key + tab for screenshot is easier than pressing print screen on 80he as there's less arm/hand movement involved

#

anyway, my point is that there are some quirks to the layout, but you have ways to overcome them

hidden sun

so i end up using one key instead of two

Pull the switch off the keycap and put it back in

You mean like this SwitchyHeHe https://youtu.be/wYACSlhQg9E

Time for custom switches! I tested the Geon RAW HE, Gateron Jade, GUGU Black Knight, and our very own Lekker V2 to compare their sound profiles. All of these switches are compatible with both the 60HE and 80HE.

Hey I wanted to ask 2 general questions. 1) you guys think mod support in 80he will be on par with 60he in the future? 2) so you think there will be a 60he version in the future with feature set like the 80 (8k polling etc)?

glacial wind
honest sapphire
#

probably gonna take a while for the custom cases for the 80he

rotund ridge
#

Cases being available on market

glacial wind
#

They both offer the same modding ability outside of case options

rotund ridge
#

Sorry should have been more specific

glacial wind
#

cases will take time because no such thing as the 60% gh60 market exists in anything beyond 60%

#

There’s almost definitely an upgraded 60he in the future. Question is how far in the future though

#

Thanks!

If you have to replace them then knight v2, but stock is generally fine with tuning

random idea just popped into my head

#

what if i made a website that just had a lot of interactive 3D keyboards

#

so like you could click on a key and would make a sound the real keyboard makes

#

and you can add tape mods to see what it would sound like and stuff

#

and even try different switches

I have questions about modding the keyboard. So lubing keycaps and modules is just for sounding better or to make function better?

#

dont lube the keycaps and modules

lube the siwtches

most of the time, when lubing switches, its for better sound and overall smoothness throughout the travel
