no, at worst you can experience power issues but these can be mitigated by lowering brightness & disabling tachyon

generally the cable shouldnt be longer than 2 meters to preserve signal integrity

First new launch since acquisition. High quality SA ABS keycaps if that’s your thing

[calm pulsar]

I wake up and ppl out here tape modding raws💀

[untold wigeon]

SA is bae

[polar girder]

Ikr

Hoping PBS BoB drops ASAP

Otherwise might have to buy them separate

[untold wigeon]

Wob, bob, bow, wow, I never liked any of them. I need color.

[polar girder]

Color sucks!

Jk lol

[polar girder]

FINALLY got my SW Knight stabs in black.

And my artisans

But I’m not back home until Thursday lol

[untold wigeon]

Expensive hobby

[polar girder]

Srs

[tiny summit]

For keebtape application, do you guys think it's best to cutout holes for these on the wooting pcb?🤔

Due to overheating issues perhaps?🤷‍♂️

[calm pulsar]

[lone plume]

i didnt cut for these on my keebtape

just for the screw hole

[tiny summit]

Perfect, ty!

[devout torrent]

@stone flax

[calm pulsar]

what have you unleashed upon this poor soul

[devout torrent]

he loves the content

[prime orbit]

Anyone see the new WL keyboard announced?

[marsh saffron]

Yeah

[prime orbit]

Wooting still better?

[glacial wind]

it's an oem keyboard lol - what do you think

[prime orbit]

No idea

That’s why I asked

[glacial wind]

basically no oem keyboard is ever better

[chilly mural]

what keyboard?

[chilly mural]

ohh

[glacial wind]

the only companies that are competitive are all non oem, they make the software themselves and actually tweak things going forward

[chilly mural]

Hmm, looks good

[calm pulsar]

just another tray mount oem

[marsh saffron]

Jade pros pre installed

[marsh saffron]

Apparently it's gasket mount

[glacial wind]

aka companies like geon, melgeek, rakka etc can actually compete. The rest are just oem rebrands with rebadged software

[marsh saffron]

Also was wondering what the hell this meant

[calm pulsar]

oh that's a bit more interesting

[prime orbit]

Oh I did have a question about that

[calm pulsar]

hate the layout tho 😄

[prime orbit]

Is every company nowadays just using the same stuff and putting their name on it?

[glacial wind]

gasket mount is oem now. You can get oem that are gasket mount, 8k and come with jade pro or better

[marsh saffron]

Gasket mount forged carbon case with Jade pros pre installed

[glacial wind]

and that's a standard oem build

expect a ton of oem keyboard launches over the next year that are all gasket, 8k and have jade pro/gaming or ttc kom

[chilly mural]

is the 8k at least good?

[glacial wind]

it's 'fine', but won't be as fast as the companies that actually tweak it properly

[marsh saffron]

Its no different than wootings aka you cannot feel a difference

[calm pulsar]

saves you 1ms

[chilly mural]

Good enough

[marsh saffron]

Just like the 80he it'll have 8k scan and polling

[glacial wind]

8k vs 1k has never mattered

[marsh saffron]

Also just like the 80he it doesn't make a difference

[prime orbit]

Do you think wooting will come out with an updated 60he module with 8k?

Doubt it

But would be cool just to have the choice

[marsh saffron]

Doubt it, don't care either way

[calm pulsar]

there will be 60he pro

which will likely have 8k

[marsh saffron]

I would care more about screw in stabs than 8k polling

[glacial wind]

100%. But will take awhile

[prime orbit]

There is info on that?

[prime orbit]

Yeah figured

[calm pulsar]

leak from Calder

[prime orbit]

65% wooting 👀👀

[prime orbit]

Where at? Like on YT?

[calm pulsar]

there was a live stream

[prime orbit]

Gotcha

[calm pulsar]

but it was very briefly mentioned

so no other info on that

[prime orbit]

OK cool

[glacial wind]

a glorious livestream where our goddess rouhan gave us the fated name

[prime orbit]

Ty

Ik 8k doesn’t make any difference but because I have fomo I’d upgrade anyway

[chilly mural]

I want the placebo

[prime orbit]

He gets it lmao

[calm pulsar]

im liking the tsangan layout, but wooting will probably not accomodate that in 60he pro as an option 😦

[prime orbit]

What layout is that?

[calm pulsar]

here's my venom60he

[prime orbit]

I’m alr having fomo about the RAW he rn so I’m hurting internally

[prime orbit]

How is that different? Unless I’m blind lol

[calm pulsar]

symmetrical bottom row, 7u spacebar, split right shift, split backspace

[prime orbit]

Oh yeah

The fn is weird

Ah ok

I see those now

Forged carbon that hard to make? Lmao

[calm pulsar]

it's too niche probably, but would be nice if wooting could just leave a couple of more magnetic sensors for enthusiasts who like such layout

since geon could do that

[prime orbit]

Yeah that’s fair

I get that

So wooting

[calm pulsar]

carbon case sounds kinda expensive

[prime orbit]

They don’t use oem?

[calm pulsar]

I wonder what's the cost of that

[prime orbit]

I’m just curious on how

[prime orbit]

They selling for $250

so I’m guessing around $150 to make it?

[calm pulsar]

more premium than other HE boards but doesnt seem too bad considering it includes jade pros and the case being cnc forged carbon

[prime orbit]

Ye

Seems really nice ngl

I’ve had bad experiences with my sword x mouse

So I’m done with WL

I hope it works out for others tho

[wary yarrow]

listen to the sound difference tho

[polar girder]

lol

[polar girder]

Evolved

It’s sweet to see how rapidly the HE market is evolving

[prime orbit]

Raw he still on top tho

Not evolving fast enough

[stone flax]

whats up diddies

[raw oriole]

If im getting the 60he+ module and putting Gateron Jade Max switches on it, they have lower travel distance than the lekker switches, does that mean ill need to buy new stabilizers to match the switch travel distance of the jade maxes? I could be entirely wrong about this but I'm a bit confused so I figured I'd ask

[stone flax]

Get raws

🥱

maxes plasticky and overpriced

miss me with that silly shit

🤪

[wary yarrow]

you don't need to buy new stabilizers no

[stone flax]

depends on keycap tolerances

but yeah

u can

For reduced travel switches

U dont need new stabs tho

[prime orbit]

Get RAW he

Easy w

[stone flax]

stem spacers/orings work

[calm pulsar]

keys sound different in different spots, and the tolerances on raws are already very good, so killing the top out sound is not that necessary

[wary yarrow]

the tolerances are good, the mod isn't for the wobble, it's padding for the upstroke

the difference in sound is clear regardless of the spot on the keyboard

[calm pulsar]

but are you aiming for a quieter switch? maybe you can do it on an open bottom to make it as quiet as possible

bottom out sound is still there which is quite loud on all closed bottom HE switches

[wary yarrow]

I'm aiming for a cleaner upstroke that's it

whatever the means

it is not great even on the raw he

[raw oriole]

Are you saying that while I won't need new stabilizers I'll need spacers or orings to compensate for the difference in travel distance? Or is this entirely related to sound preference

[wary yarrow]

the stem smashing the top housing is always dirty af

[stone flax]

anything to reduce the bottom out distance of the stabilizers

cant be a physical thing like spacers

or just a longer stem

[raw oriole]

Is it better and/or easier to just buy different stabilizers?

[prime orbit]

Would the RAW x BK switch be a good combo or should I just do the RAW normal?

[calm pulsar]

I can see your point, hope it works out
I just feel like it can get kinda scuffed applying all that tape, keeping it consistent and mixing it with lube

also I assume with time the tape probably thins out due to all the plastic hitting it and the sound might come back unless you apply more tape

[calm pulsar]

you could do a clean open bottom switch using raws and BK, but I'd say just try out raws stock if you havent had any closed bottom switches before

[wary yarrow]

I've been trying every mod out there for over a year, lekkers and jade has been through switch tape mode for year+ and months

[prime orbit]

I’ve only had BK since making my custom 60he

[wary yarrow]

the tape does thin out a bit and lube moves/dry out, but it still stays better than stock

I wish there was a switch out there with a clean overall sound stock tho

the raws are the best so far but I still want better

I also have 10 raws from a month ago, still better than stock but not as good as freshly modded

[calm pulsar]

yeah just try them out first, cause why buy them if you just gonna make another open bottom switch lol

[lone plume]

what is raw x bk?

[prime orbit]

Fair lmao

[prime orbit]

Raw he and black knight

Switches

[lone plume]

eh knight for bottom?

[prime orbit]

I think someone did it like that in here yeah

Called it the cookies and cream switch

Or Oreo or sum

[untold wigeon]

Hey. I have raptor HE switches. Are there any up from them? Are the Jades nice?

[cedar gate]

jades are good i think raws are better

raptors are one of the worst switches

[prime orbit]

Raptors are horrible I’ve heard

RAW he are the goats

[ionic breach]

a long way has come since the raptors lmao

[velvet vigil]

are the stabs on the 80HE good stock or is it worth getting the TX AP stabs?

[calm pulsar]

nah they're good

[velvet vigil]

okk ty

[untold wigeon]

Good to know. I bought raptors because they were red

[stray tiger]

Stem swapped Raptors are still pretty good if you want something a bit more muted. I use them on two different boards

[harsh dove]

That’s the nice thing about keyboard modding

https://tenor.com/view/its-personal-preference-frozone-just-my-choice-personal-taste-subjective-preference-gif-21445075

There is no best and never will be

[raw oriole]

If price was not a factor would raw still be the recommendation over jade max?

[glacial wind]

with the current issues of jade max yeah

they seem to have some sticking issues due possibly to pc on pc stem and housing

[raw oriole]

Are there other issues than the keycaps getting stuck?

[glacial wind]

the stem sometimes sticks vs the housing when pushing

that's what a few people with jade max report, which in the past has been caused by 2 materials of the same type rubbing against each other

[raw oriole]

Gotcha

I assume the raw are still pretty good for rgb even if it's not as good as the max

For obvious reasons

[glacial wind]

yeah raw is still decent for rgb

[tropic urchin]

The sticking I’ve seen has been 50/50 reported from other Max users, it’s a shame I won’t be able to test my keeb til early December to verify 🙃

[harsh dove]

RAW HE with XRays with 80HE Frost Case

[raw oriole]

That's pretty sick

[lone plume]

that xmas light

[harsh dove]

If there’s a slight flex and if you feel like it removed or helped the dead sound spots near the screws

You can try loosening the screws a bit if you want more flex

Or vice versa

[lone plume]

does using less screw give better sound or only better feel?

im thinking to not screw the pcb to case on my two he

since thge top plate is screw in

[harsh dove]

Both personally, I was only using two screws in my tray mount builds

[lone plume]

because two he mount very differently

[harsh dove]

Yeah

Yeah just don’t break your PCB

Yeah you’re safe to press on the entire keyboard to test flex

[stray tiger]

Ok boys we cooking today

[harsh dove]

It’s alright, questions are good

[stray tiger]

@harsh dove I gotta decide today to grab the Rubrehaku or not. Im leaning towards pass with all of the new HE stuff coming in the next few months

[cedar gate]

yes imo

[harsh dove]

Oh you haven’t decided yet? Figured you would’ve grabbed it already

[stray tiger]

When the GB first opened up it was about $100 cheaper. Now Im on the fence. If I order it I'd sell my Derivative to offset the cost

[harsh dove]

Ahh okay

[stray tiger]

I find myself leaving my traditional MX boards on the shelf more and more

[harsh dove]

Yeah, I feel you on that, I literally just grabbed my 60HE off the shelf today to use it lol

[tropic urchin]

Mine just wind back up in their box 🤣

[cedar gate]

i use the wooting for everything including work because the adjustable actuation is even good for typing imo

[untold wigeon]

Same. I wish I bought the 80he though.

[stray tiger]

Ive got 5 non-HE boards sitting here I still havent even built. I need to do a spring cleaning and sell off a few

[untold wigeon]

I take it to work a lot (mainly for a mix of to play Tekken)

[cedar gate]

with layers im making it work

[harsh dove]

I was using the 60HE for a long time until I got the 80HE to test out

[stray tiger]

Its becoming closer now in sound and feel that I'm missing non-HE less and less

[harsh dove]

Now im pulling the 60 out again today

[untold wigeon]

The FN layers are so good.

[tropic urchin]

Making me feel better about having 3 keyboards

[untold wigeon]

Oh. With the RAW HE switches, are the 50/60g really heavy feeling?

[cedar gate]

ive only owned 2 mx keyboards and i dont miss them at all when using HE to me this is better in every way and the sound and feel is equal to me

[harsh dove]

Yeah, something like that is in the works

[ionic breach]

compared to?

[stray tiger]

My hype plates arrived. One for the midway60 and one for the Iron160 so Im going to cut out the daughterboard from the venom PCB today and try this out.

[untold wigeon]

Well stock lekker 60g

[calm pulsar]

[ionic breach]

well the 60s are 60s lmao

its the same

the 50 is a tad bit lighter

but nothing outrageous

[stray tiger]

Yeah, at this point any traditional boards I bring in would be for collection purposes only and that's why I'm leaning towards not ordering the rubrehaku

[harsh dove]

No time period set or anything but it was mentioned on a live stream

[calm pulsar]

I updated the firmware on venom60he yesterday, it unlocked socd and some other stuff, but no capslock led sadly

[stray tiger]

I'll probably try to update mine today when I take the frog mini apart.

[untold wigeon]

I will get them then. I have the raptors which are too light for me.

[harsh dove]

Yeah I didn’t necessarily mean in the works as in like being produced or anything, just talked about

[untold wigeon]

Like I don’t feel consistent key presses in a way

[ionic breach]

the raptors are 48

[cedar gate]

my biggest problem with the wooting was the space bar because the lube was really lacking i hope theyre thinking of fixing that

[calm pulsar]

during some Wooting livestream Calder talked to an employee who supposedly was working on designs for 60he pro 👀

[ionic breach]

mb its 48 or 52

[untold wigeon]

Then maybe my senses hate me 😭

[cedar gate]

ITS ALWAYS CALDER THAT LEAKS🤣

[ionic breach]

if its too light get the 60s

[stray tiger]

It wasnt Calder this time hehe

[ionic breach]

rouhan?

[harsh dove]

Yeah there’s possibilities of 60HE “Pro”

[calm pulsar]

yeah techically it was the girl who is working on the design

[calm pulsar]

Cam, do you like tsangan layout?

[harsh dove]

It needs option for 6u and 7u bottom row and I’m happy

[calm pulsar]

yess

[cedar gate]

i honestly have no idea how they can make it better though the wooting is basically perfect the only improvements that could be made are typing feel etc

[ionic breach]

design

[cedar gate]

performance wise its pretty perfect

[ionic breach]

physical design and more optimisation

[cedar gate]

like gasket mount pc plate etc.

[harsh dove]

Pro model could be a more premium version that comes with alu case, gasket mount, etc

[ionic breach]

nah

like case designs

[calm pulsar]

this needs to happen, you gotta provide some feedback to the team

[ionic breach]

pcb to be more suitable for mods

better switches

[cedar gate]

sell it for 50$ more for 0.725 miliseconds less latency

[cedar gate]

the cases are already pretty sick it would make more sense to release a new case

its actually worse for frames

[stray tiger]

Supporting both on the same PCB would be tricky. There is a reason Geon makes you choose which.

[ionic breach]

wait

is eric's transulcent case a design for the 60he pro?

👀

[cedar gate]

i have an 8k mouse but i use 1k normal and 2k in game

more fps

more battery too

[ionic breach]

ya i guess

probably should keep most of it

[harsh dove]

Same for me

[calm pulsar]

no doubt, but on Geons there is an ability to install either full backspace or split backspace and then select which sensors are active

so if that was an option, this would add to the customizability that Wooting is know for

[ionic breach]

2k mouse 1k kb

[cedar gate]

this feature from razer is awesome

[viscid gulch]

fuck razer synapse

worst software

bloatware*

[cedar gate]

wooting should do something similar where you auto switch profiles in game

[viscid gulch]

ever

[cedar gate]

FR

[calm pulsar]

ofc I udnerstand this is more of a niche thing, but if my feedback helps at least a bit in that direction, why not express it 😄

[cedar gate]

just a bunch of advertisements you have to keep it open and its huge

[viscid gulch]

why

[cedar gate]

HOLY HELL

[viscid gulch]

is there 9999 different razer synapse up

at once

[marsh saffron]

W software

[viscid gulch]

not my picture

[ionic breach]

i honestly dont mind logitech's

[marsh saffron]

Me neither

[viscid gulch]

LOGITECH IS x1000 times better

[ionic breach]

their onboard memory one is great

[calm pulsar]

[viscid gulch]

fucking hell razer auto downloads even if you delete razer synapse each time you insert the usb

AUTO DOWNLOADS

no accept stuff or anything

that shit is a virus

[stray tiger]

I thought it launched the installer thats embedded but didnt actually download.

[viscid gulch]

500mb of bloatware and it keeps 17 different running processes XD

[marsh saffron]

I literally fresh installed windows and never plugged a razer product in

Before windows even installed fully I got a popup to install synapse

Shit is absurd

[viscid gulch]

people have made github codes to stop the force download because they hate synapse so much XD

[stray tiger]

Yeah I think its built into the device (the installer, not the entire product suite)

[calm pulsar]

tbf when I deinstalled synapse, my razer mouse did not install it back

[marsh saffron]

But that's the thing I had 0 razer devices plugged in?

[viscid gulch]

https://github.com/ChrisTitusTech/block-razer

here is the github to stop auto razer software install XD

[stray tiger]

Now thats odd

[viscid gulch]

and yeah it auto downloads in the installer

dont know if they changed it in the past years (1-2 years)

but before that it did auto download when you pluged in usb

they make great mice but they need to fire the 2 coders that made that software

[marsh saffron]

Razers software devs get bonuses based on how intrusive they can make the software

[calm pulsar]

web based drivers are just too good

or rather web based software

[marsh saffron]

Yeah I'm glad WLmouse went web based

[tropic urchin]

I think they do have a beta that’s similar to a web based browser currently

[stone flax]

where

[tropic urchin]

It’s not exactly a 1:1 browser as others, but the new beta lets you set it and then never open it again if you don’t want to and is more lightweight compared to synapse 3. A step in the right direction atleast, but I’ve had a lot fewer issues with it

[tropic urchin]

I believe it’s this: https://www.razer.com/synapse-4?srsltid=AfmBOoq4geWVmaHJlJ1GXVYhP4uCn0boQWXWuFTC9qP57YU9F_AeDQSZ

[calm pulsar]

seems like it is still software

[knotty iron]

when pressing slowly and slightly off axis on a Raw HE switch how does it feel? there isn't too much friction right?

worst case I do have krytox 205g0

and 52.5g pingless springs

they should be here on the 17th

[pastel pendant]

Guys, i m new to modding and wanted to do some on my 80he zinc any tips for it? Asking because i ordered some geon RAW and wanted to know what can i order to make It feel and sound even Better. Thanks in Advance (more for a thocky/creamy sound but i m open to everything)

[calm pulsar]

nope I compared them and raws are smoother compared to maxes

[pastel pendant]

Any recommendation?

Ok thanks!

[knotty iron]

i dont need to worryyyyyy

bless

[pastel pendant]

No budget so just blast me whit ideas and tips

[cedar gate]

i dont even have rgb on any of my razer products

[knotty iron]

oh god

[cedar gate]

my mouse is vv3pro (no rgb) and my headset is blackshark no rgb

[cedar gate]

yeah the knights are great becaue theyre easy to wrok with

[pastel pendant]

For now i m using wooting White Ones, i was searching for some good looking ones (gmk bow or the red samurai ones but still i m not very sure) because i have the White zinc and idk if they will look good. If you have any recommended lmk.

[knotty iron]

razer telemetry/bloat goes hard💀

[pastel pendant]

Yeah thanks

[cedar gate]

if you dont like the backlit wob caps from pbtfans are basically just that but without backlights

[stone flax]

https://tenor.com/view/venom-tom-hardy-marvel-rage-antihero-gif-11732259

thocky/creamy

[stone flax]

dont get gmk they lean high pitched

[viscid gulch]

XDD

[thorn zealot]

wow right after i ordered

[little glen]

what shop is this

i just ordered some too hahaha

[gusty prawn]

bro what aint no way

oh wait

i bought them for 5,59$ for 10 switches

https://nl.aliexpress.com/item/1005007782574456.html?spm=a2g0o.order_list.order_list_main.5.28d379d2SJjZhy&gatewayAdapt=glo2nld

[untold wigeon]

me too

[ionic breach]

note that im referring to the onboard memory manager

not the logitech hub

that shit is not great

[calm pulsar]

me when no thocky and creamy dreamy keyboard

[thorn zealot]

divinikey

[analog jetty]

where did you order, 8,64 seems quite high

[analog jetty]

i ordered them for 4.80$ for 10 switches directly at geon

[thorn grove]

I'm looking at their deals right now lol

[thorn grove]

free shipping or an arm and a leg?

[analog jetty]

with shipping from goen (from korea) it was like 53 cents key, but i also ordered like 160

[thorn grove]

that's not bad

[exotic inlet]

I had to pay like 30€ of customs from geon

That caught me by surprise because dhl apparently had like a flat rate

[thorn grove]

yea the shipping was also really high for myself which is why I never considered it

[analog jetty]

well where i live its hit or miss if i have to pay customs fees or not, sometimes i have to, sometimes i don’t

[exotic inlet]

So those 5.59 / 10 switches from Aliexpress the other guy posted are a good offer

[little glen]

ali shipping is cheap too

[analog jetty]

well at 100 switches its already 3$ difference, but also it highly depends on shipping options and stuff

also aliexpress you still have to pay for shipping on top of the 56 cents per switch

[exotic inlet]

Yes, but according to what that shows me it's only less than 5€

4.78 to be exact

[analog jetty]

depends on where you live i guess, with 100 switches + 4.78 shipping its 60 cents per switch

but i heard that geon shipping is quite high usually, so its probably still cheaper on aliexpress for most

[exotic inlet]

Ye, shipping in there were 22$ to EU

[thorn grove]

Are there any noticeable benefits from things like switch films, spacebar foams, stabilizer foams etc? (I haven't done any of these)

The main mods I plan on doing to the 80HE when I get it are sound dampening, stabilizers, and some extra love and lube.

[thorn zealot]

its 8.64 for 18

on divinikey

i didnt order from geon cuz their shipping fucks me

[uneven cradle]

All things that dampen sounds

[whole obsidian]

those are good for the wooting custom?
https://kbdfans.com/products/geon-raw-he-magnetic-switch?variant=42758834847883

[little glen]

Yes

[whole obsidian]

ty

[uneven cradle]

Not just good but great, some would say even the best

[whole obsidian]

niceee

do i have everything for a perfect modding?

[stone flax]

what are u planning with that there tape

[whole obsidian]

to kidnap someone

nah to tape mod i guess someone said that it's very good so i listen to it

[whole obsidian]

@stone flax
tape is bad?

[lean crypt]

Is it worth tape modding a two he?

Im actually curious about that

[whole obsidian]

can i put this on a wooting 60he + module ? and a tofu redux case?

a tape mod

kbdfans

https://kbdfans.com/products/60-layout-tape-mod-customization?variant=40882294980747

yeah but buying a lot from the website so idc

i know but it's cool to know that their is a whole design

what's an hole puncher?

[viral vine]

punches holes

[untold wigeon]

https://tenor.com/view/thumbs-up-punch-aviso-wall-construction-gif-27574982

[outer finch]

Should I go for standard or long pole stabs for geon raws?

And is the spring length the important factor? I’m new to this lol

[stone flax]

preference

[stone flax]

long pole if ur getting new ones anyways

[jade prairie]

whats the point of this

3 layers vs no tape

[ionic breach]

its just tape

[jade prairie]

yeah but why pay for fancy tape

[ionic breach]

:) fancy custom prints

ofc but its like a few bucks and its cool

[jade prairie]

I mean same goes kinda for weights but you can flip it, but with tape you never see it

[stone flax]

i hate tape mod

i will eat all the tape in this world

[jade prairie]

a tape roll is 1

[stone flax]

so no one can tape mod

[jade prairie]

same but the wooting sounds shit without it

[stone flax]

nope

[ionic breach]

most people dont like tape mod actually

[stone flax]

maybe urs does

[jade prairie]

it sounds pingy and flat

[stone flax]

fr

tapemod sux

[jade prairie]

no

without tape it sounds crap

[stone flax]

maybe ur wooting does

[ionic breach]

https://tenor.com/view/the-choice-is-yours-jigsaw-john-kramer-saw6-it-is-your-decision-gif-21986621

its preference dawg

[jade prairie]

what sound is your wooting

[calm pulsar]

@stone flax the led is working

[stone flax]

yayyhy

howd u get it to work

[calm pulsar]

I will be honest, I don't know xdd

[stone flax]

[calm pulsar]

I just did some changes to the build, plugged it in and it worked lmao

[ionic breach]

ngl i would like to see light blue aoe effect on that

[stone flax]

thats always the strat

[ionic breach]

monotone theme + light blue aoe is so nice

[stone flax]

@jade prairie

[calm pulsar]

fingering that spacebar

[stone flax]

im planning to buy new keycaps

[ionic breach]

that i want to buy a whole new kb for it

[stone flax]

uhhh

crp tulip

looks so nice

yowch

[calm pulsar]

this board looks like its matte black

or something

cause it doesnt reflect light lol

[stone flax]

black plate too

the void

consumes

[jade prairie]

what case is that

[stone flax]

frog mini

[calm pulsar]

btw pc plate here?

[uneven cradle]

[stone flax]

froggyyyy

[jade prairie]

how is it mounted

[calm pulsar]

silver frog gang

[stone flax]

tadpoles

heheheeh

[jade prairie]

im a bit confused

[stone flax]

yummmm

what weight are u?

i got silver

[calm pulsar]

same

[stone flax]

frog brothers

;0

[jade prairie]

how do you use a case like that on a wooting

[stone flax]

its just a convoluted topmount by use of plate

[calm pulsar]

pcb is attached to the plate, and the plate is mounted on soft thingies called tadpoles, which gives it a softer feeling

[stone flax]

and top case

it doesnt feel like topmount tho

but its deffo better than traditional tray

[jade prairie]

i hate tray mount

[stone flax]

12 points all around rather than having it be on 5/6 ones spread

feels betta

[cold bloom]

@stone flax my neo65 should be here soon, what mount style did you use again?

Didn’t you say you used oring and some of the gaskets or something?

[calm pulsar]

this case happens to support gh60 pcbs, which wooting is similar too

[stone flax]

i ended up cutting up the o-ring to do a hybrid mount

o-ring but gaskets on spacebar

[calm pulsar]

as in, usb port on the side

[cold bloom]

Hmmmm

[jade prairie]

hmm

[stone flax]

DONT DO IT

LOL

[cold bloom]

HAHAHHA

ok

I was gonna ask

[stone flax]

i just ended up doing it because i know what i wanted

[jade prairie]

i wonder when my neo65 comes

[stone flax]

but dont fuck up ur oring just for that

but for me its literal bliss

[cold bloom]

Yeah I’ll try gasket first I think but I wanna try oring on its own before deciding

[stone flax]

o-ring alphas stifness but gasket sb

feels nice

i can also choose to just take off the sb gaskets

but its a lil too resonant

that way

[cold bloom]

How did you have to cut it

[stone flax]

wrapped o-ring around and just cut off the bits around the start of stabilizer

[cold bloom]

Oh ok

[stone flax]

if u wanted to get really funky with mounts

neo80 has 4

lol

brass pillars

gasket socks/sleeves

gasket dumbells

and o-ring

mix and matchable too to an extent

[calm pulsar]

brass pillars

[stone flax]

yes

[stone flax]

ill be frank tho its a bit gimmicky

ion like the board that much

[uneven cradle]

Yeah most boards with that many mounting style have like 1 or 2 decent ones and the rest are poorly implemented

Prefer a board where the whole board is designed around one mounting style and it does it

[kind helm]

fr4 is a tiny bit brighter

@calm pulsar curious how many screw you use between plate and pcb?

[calm pulsar]

I'm currently using a venom60he pcb, and it has the standoffs attached to it, so I use them all

I think there's 7 or 8

[stone flax]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kW-RCIA9gsk&t=6s
well designed case and switches >>>>>>>>> foam, switchpads, burger mount, tape mod, keebtape, shelf liner, polyfill, stab pads

[kind helm]

[robust siren]

https://tenor.com/view/holy-moly-gif-2379897567703251318

[calm pulsar]

true af

sounds awesome

[calm pulsar]

lol you know what he did to the switches

[stone flax]

.-.

dont say it

[calm pulsar]

tape mod

[stone flax]

[calm pulsar]

haha

[stone flax]

i actually understand that one tho

[jade prairie]

holy60 is well designed? it sounds like you just have a pcb

you dont get well designed anything with hall effect pretty much

[calm pulsar]

I feel like it's just a very well done build and while it probably appears different irl, sound kinda nice on recording

[kind helm]

to me, as long as it doesnt' sound "bad", then i just consider the rest to be "personality"

[calm pulsar]

the spacebar is so well done

[stone flax]

ill take an open traymount than one that forces to bounce back terrible sound

if ur resonance is gonna be bad just take it out

🧠

no need to glaze

ik im a genius

[jade prairie]

atp im gonna ditch the wooting

sounds so shit

[stone flax]

what is ur build btw

[calm pulsar]

lekkers, 9 layer tape mod

thock film

[stone flax]

outemu magnetic clickies

9x poron film mod

[calm pulsar]

lmaoo

[jade prairie]

Tofu60redux, ws dash, the older 60he with plate mounted durock v3s

forced to have an alu plate or is it steel not sure

[calm pulsar]

the stock white one is steel yeah

[jade prairie]

i hate it

[calm pulsar]

well the plate is very bad

you gotta get smth else, it will be way better

kbdfans has alu, pc, fr4, cf

there are also pom on aliexpress

or hypekeyboards custom ones with pretty much anything

[jade prairie]

i already got something else: a whole other keyboard

[stone flax]

what board

[jade prairie]

neo65

looked good and i dont wanna splurge anymore on the keyboard stuf

[kind helm]

just switch to a different plate, steel is actually nightmare i agree with you on that

[jade prairie]

i cant

iso pcb and non + module

literally cant switch

[calm pulsar]

well MX is always better sounding and feeling

[kind helm]

oh you special like that i didn't know mb

i mean mx has been there for a long while and people have been messing with it

[calm pulsar]

HE boards are for their gaming performance mostly, but it's also fun to push them as far as you can toward better sound and feel

[kind helm]

its just newer technology :3

[calm pulsar]

while retaining the HE tech

[jade prairie]

i stopped gaming so I gain nothing from a wooting

i should probably sell it

[calm pulsar]

so you preordered an 80he on top of that

[kind helm]

wait yea, that blue thingy

LOL

[jade prairie]

i canceled it already they just havent removed the role

as soon as i saw the reviews

and the plastic feet looked so bizarre

[calm pulsar]

well if you really don't need a gaming board anything MX is literally just better

[kind helm]

i will never get a 80, i dont trust cases or switches made by wooting

ain no way

[ionic breach]

im glad it is light gray

[stone flax]

https://hypekeyboards.ca/products/wooting-60he-plates

yeah u can

atleast i think so

iso plate mount right here

[jade prairie]

oh

they probably ship from the us so nah

[calm pulsar]

canada

[ionic breach]

ca

[stone flax]

canadia

[calm pulsar]

https://tenor.com/view/trudeau-budget-balance-itself-communisy-gif-12651874

[jade prairie]

a single plate would cost me close to a 100$

[cedar gate]

What sandwich pad do yall use with pc plate

[stone flax]

wya

[cedar gate]

Holy hell

[jade prairie]

🇫🇮

shipping, vat, imports

[cedar gate]

Oh I had a 2 day layover there a few years ago

Random

[jade prairie]

i already have a keyboard coming in so im not spending a single dime on the wooting anymore😭

[calm pulsar]

wait what's stopping you to order an ISO plate from Wooting though?

https://wooting.io/product/60he-pc-switch-plate?Layout=ISO+Kit&Color=White

[stone flax]

what u building

[jade prairie]

neo65

[cedar gate]

Yeah actually you'll probably get better Shipping than most people if you just get it from wooting

[jade prairie]

im stopping me

[stone flax]

no

whats the build

[jade prairie]

neo65, fr4 plate, hmx sunset gleams

gmk darling

[stone flax]

fr4 💀

[ionic breach]

case colour?

[jade prairie]

purple

[stone flax]

fr4

fr4 😵

fr4

[jade prairie]

whats wrong with fr4

[calm pulsar]

when fr5 come out?

[ionic breach]

damn we are polar opposites ngl

[stone flax]

dead

kills

sound

[ionic breach]

if fr4 so bad y no fr5

[calm pulsar]

I don't know stuff about MX but HMX are super bright sounding right?

so with fr4 it probably is going to be piercing

[stone flax]

its a spectrum but yeah u can probably take 80% of hmx and they all sound like loud high pitched long poles

there are deep hmx but theyre not deep in the traditional way

[stone flax]

imo the play for that on a small board is a deeper plastic plate

[cedar gate]

Fr4 is awesome lol

[stone flax]

fr4 wont sound as loud in the neo but its still as piercing

so like

gg

u killed the sound

still hurts

[cedar gate]

Has a unique mix of thock and clack that I love

[stone flax]

^^^^ what a substantive statement

thock AND clack?

woah

[cedar gate]

Then again this is all preference I would listen to some sound tests and see if it's something you want

[calm pulsar]

dang I also would love to try out other plates with the venom, but no other plates exist😭

[cedar gate]

Badseeds are pretty good

[jade prairie]

i wanted carbon fiber and xinhais first

xinhais werent in stock so no can do

[stone flax]

insane loadout but sunset gleams are just as hot

[calm pulsar]

how much of thock is in that mix?

[stone flax]

i was gonna do xinhais but they were oos too lol

im doing cf+monochromes and theyre tight

[jade prairie]

oh i also got a pom plate

[ionic breach]

i really dislike that

[stone flax]

good

[ionic breach]

im sorry

[jade prairie]

i want super clack tho so

[kind helm]

nah i am cool dude, i think because all my previous builds have been on lower pitch, this is new and spicy to me

[calm pulsar]

I got similar sound now, just less echo-ish, but maybe that's just the recording

[stone flax]

my current neo

[ionic breach]

id go for something poppy for that

[stone flax]

o-ring so much deepah

than gasket

[cedar gate]

Idk maybe 20%

[jade prairie]

all neos seem to sound the same

[stone flax]

they lowk do

[jade prairie]

luckily i like that sound

[calm pulsar]

damn this is very clean sounding but I would proably not be able to live with that for long

[jade prairie]

anyway my alarm is in 2 hours i gtg

[kind helm]

nah poppy = foam, i just gonna go foamless for wooting

[stone flax]

i type with it under a blanket

🤫

[cedar gate]

That's really good actually I'm kind of digging that pop

[stone flax]

............

pop?

https://tenor.com/view/venom-tom-hardy-marvel-rage-antihero-gif-11732259

[kind helm]

[cedar gate]

Like the poppy sounds

[cold bloom]

@stone flax noooo they put the batteries in LMAO

[cedar gate]

Idk did I say that wrong

[cold bloom]

I should’ve specified I didnt want them

Sadge

[stone flax]

gg

[calm pulsar]

well maybe it's just amplified in the recording, and is less bright irl

[stone flax]

did the foam covers not get included then

[cold bloom]

Nope

[stone flax]

fuck

[cold bloom]

Not that I can find

[stone flax]

yeah thats sad

[cold bloom]

That’s hilarious

And sad

[stone flax]

just dont plug the batteries in

ez

mass is mass

[cold bloom]

That’s what I was gonna ask

Yeah

[cedar gate]

Specs also was that mouse at the beginning viper v3 pro

[timber nymph]

I'm getting the tofu 60 maroon case not sure when it will come in but this is what I have so far

[cedar gate]

Nice

[quick girder]

Anyone know if theres any plans to release a clear silicone plate dampener? The 80he has the gaskets integrated into that unfortunately. Was hoping the frost case would be more rgb friendly than it is

[stray tiger]

There are plans for other mounting options for the 80HE but Im not sure what you mean as far as wanting more RGB friendly. It's one of the brightest boards on the market by a large margin.

[small fiber]

can anyone give me a link to buy venom60?

[stray tiger]

Wrong discord and it's not available for global sale

[robust siren]

@stone flax holy yap bro

[small fiber]

where is it available

[ionic breach]

korea

[stray tiger]

Korea

[stone flax]

dm

[small fiber]

😭

im just going to buy 60he and buy 80he when its in stock

tomorrow is never promised

[robust siren]

yet you probably have to wait at least a month for the 80he

[stone flax]

check dms

[small fiber]

probably 6 months but i dont care because ill have a wooting

[ionic breach]

batch 2 is almost here alr tho lmao

[robust siren]

not 6 months, its not founders anymore

any batch after the first will be a lot faster

[small fiber]

60he is the same just with 60 persent layout right?

[robust siren]

1k instead of 8k polling (no one cares)
tray mounted instead of gasket mount (doesnt do much anyways since its HE)

[fluid ravine]

Pin?

[untold wigeon]

https://tenor.com/view/elmom-puppet-blue-wow-color-gif-3571251

[small fiber]

how can i cancel my order of the 80he

[ionic breach]

wait

are you going to buy the 60 now?

[small fiber]

yeah

[ionic breach]

or wait until you get the refund?

[small fiber]

how may days for refund

[ionic breach]

close to ur 80he arriving

thats why im asking

[small fiber]

idgaf

i will buy 80he later

[ionic breach]

then go to wooting hub and put ur order on hold (80he)

then click contact support

and go from there

will take a few weeks for a refund

[small fiber]

ok

[gaunt linden]

Yo, do you guys think its a waste if i buy the module, instead of getting the 80he??(i have the OG wooting)

[stray tiger]

Yes

[gaunt linden]

The 80he it is then lol

[cold bloom]

@stone flax

[subtle sluice]

how do i modify the actuation on my wooting 60he to my new geon raw switches that are 3.4mm not 4.0?

[glacial wind]

It will automatically calibrate as you use it

Just treat 0-4mm as 0-100%

Ignore the actual number there

[subtle sluice]

which means if i use .8mm on my 60he, i would have to put it at .7 to scale to 20% with the geon switches in? As .8/4 is 20% and .7/3.4 is 20.5% (let’s just say it’s equal in this case)

[glacial wind]

Yeah someone made a chart somewhere iirc

Thankfully eventually we’ll have a switch selector to make this a bit cleaner

[subtle sluice]

coming when 😭, luckily i passed 7th grade math so i can scale it manually

[glacial wind]

It’s coming to this version of wootility at some point. They have to finish bugfixing the major stuff in beta first though

[subtle sluice]

Is there any way to makeshit oring mount my 60he in tofu redux? also does tape mod affect the performance of my wooting?

[flat cobalt]

I really gotta order the cosmos @cold bloom been holding it off

[robust siren]

im not sure about the oring mount but tape mod is purely for sound

[ruby hill]

Alumaze60 is fully cnc?

[gaunt plume]

My collection of Magnetic Switches😁

Jade Gaming is quite good.

[tawdry tree]

https://tenor.com/view/thanos-infinity-war-everything-avengers-gif-14066494

[cold bloom]

same lmao

[flat cobalt]

I was gonna get black knight switches, but I think I'll just use my Amethyst jades

[cold bloom]

the thought of not using the cosmos salvation and cherry novelties with cherry switches kinda breaks my heart

but I love Raw HEs as far as HE switches go

they're really good

[chilly mural]

Picking up the low profile soon?

[gaunt plume]

I'll probably buy the switch when it goes on sale.
I wouldn't dare buy Nuphy AIR60 HE to get the switch😓

[quasi hinge]

Im using the 50fg

they are perfect

[jade prairie]

ok man i seriously need another playe for the wooting the steel one sucks

[full locust]

guys someone can tell me where i can find some gray and black nice keycaps?

[quasi hinge]

plain or exotic

[flat cobalt]

Are you buying both mats or just 1?

[wise sand]

I'll be getting samples for this, I will be comparing with the magnetos

[glacial wind]

They keep delaying the ttc Pom magneto

I’m curious if they had issues with it or if it’s just production issues

[wise sand]

I'm really hoping the factory lube is better... gateron and lekkers v2 were on point with lubing imo, heard very little difference post lube whereas the magnetos sounded like a different switch after hand lube lol

[glacial wind]

There’s no way I trust factory lube in box stems anyway lol

I’d relube myself every time

[wise sand]

the dedication

[tawdry tree]

New Geon closed bottom box stem HE switch.

Looks just like another Sticky Rice recolor but he said he’s tuning them still.

and this isn’t the final product.

Top housing is just smokey, not with the gold flakes like Black Knights have.

[glacial wind]

glory to geon and all that he touches

[tawdry tree]

Translation might be a bit off but

[glacial wind]

geon is so quick with trying out new designs

if he can give a cheap box stem alternative to the ttc magneto with better sound profile and smoother than swagkeys peony he that will be nice

[chilly mural]

Boxed HE switch from GEON?????

[tawdry tree]

it’s a bit difficult to read through the translation errors but it’s either gonna be the switch from Hejin, unaltered by Geon and just sold for cheap, or he’s still making adjustments to the final design.

He said it’s not his mold though, so idk.

We’ll see ig

[jade narwhal]

is there a photo of the bottom

[glacial wind]

iirc his translation device always translate raw he to low h or similar

[tawdry tree]

yeah I noticed that too

[jade narwhal]

maybe recolour

[tawdry tree]

that’s what it currently is.

[glacial wind]

oh reading into it it seems this first box stem won't be anything too fancy and less tight than raw he

but it'll be a decent cheap option

[tawdry tree]

Hejin’s Sticky Rice/all other recolors.

[jade narwhal]

its very cheap

[tawdry tree]

cheaper than Deng Gods though?

It’d be hard to top that price, if it ends up being just a recolor.

Deng Gods go for like $15/70?

[glacial wind]

he said he modified it a bit even though it's not his mold, so it'll be a bit better but not raw he level tight

[tawdry tree]

Ah alright, so he will do some modifications.

It was hard to tell from the translation.

[glacial wind]

yeah some minor modifications to try get it a little tighter, lighter 45g spring and a better factory oil lube

[tawdry tree]

Gotta love the comedian at Gateron. “Fully Silent” 😂

[glacial wind]

tut manga looks cool though

i kind of want to buy it but i have nothing to put it on

[tropic urchin]

“Fully silent - where silence speaks volumes with our new hifi sound switch”

[chilly mural]

Sound in so sound?

[wintry trout]

does anyone have any experience with the WS Dash switches? How do they comare to Jades and Lekker?

[left depot]

https://osume.com/products/momo-neko-marshmallow-keycaps

[tropic urchin]

They’re a recolor of the original jade switches

[glacial wind]

All osume stuff makes me want to make a room that is purely comfy aesthetic, then I remember I'd have to redo almost everything I own to fit that theme

[wintry trout]

good to know. Jades where out of stock locally, so I got Dashes instead.

[left depot]

do it

https://tenor.com/view/doja-cat-star-wars-gif-25078126

[tropic urchin]

They’re going to be the clacky, ‘mahjong’ sound like the originals, and the new lekkers are going to be the same semi chalky, deeper sounding switches

[wintry trout]

I'm new to kb modding so I'm not really sure what the mahjong sound is

I've been a hhkb user until wooting

[glacial wind]

it's like the sound a stone makes when it falls in the winter from a cliff up high. Hope that helps

[wintry trout]

it sounds nice, poetic even

[tropic urchin]

Their inspiration for the jades was the sound of tiles being slapped down in the game of Mahjong

Moreso marketing, but it’s the ‘best’ description outside of just calling it clacky

[tropic urchin]

If nobody is there to hear it, did it really fall 🤔

[wintry trout]

I've also heard that, shape, material and thickness of key caps affect sound profile a lot

so I got PBTfans BoW Base Icon Kit to go with the new switches

already have a tofu redux with brass weight

[calm pulsar]

new geon switch??

[fading ferry]

Planning on buying a 80he when they rerelease with the white v2, anyone got any keycap recommendations? (ISO layout)

[fading ferry]

ty btw

[jade star]

is the UK iso spacebar 6.25 or 7? cant figure it out sorry

for the 80he ^^

thank you!!

[subtle sluice]

just didn’t know if it would affect performance. at the end of the day the wooting serves as a performance board for me.

[formal ferry]

do you guys put rapid trigger on every key or just wasd

[robust siren]

personally i have it on every except shift control and space

[formal ferry]

is it ok to lube he switches or does it affect performance at all

thanks. good to know

[tiny summit]

Have any cerakeys owners found a great spacebar mod to reduce ping? I already have a 80g spring but I was curios how to make it even better..👀

[marsh saffron]

Could try putting foam in it

[tiny summit]

Thank you for the suggestion! I guess I could try a poron foam, couldn't hurt..🤷‍♂️

[jagged hazel]

Got some switches coming today but I forgot to buy a switch puller... 😅
Could I technically just remove the plate and push the switches out from the bottom?

[devout torrent]

Yeah that works lol they say not to do it the way but it works

[jagged hazel]

No risk of damaging anything?

[devout torrent]

#🌟│wooting80he message

you could damage housing clips

but for most people that doesnt happen

[jagged hazel]

Eh, new switches anyway so I think ill be okay.
But thanks, not as worried now

[robust siren]

you can also get a flathead screwdriver and push the clips in while pushing the switch from the bottom

but it might also damage the switches so... do it at your own risk

[topaz mirage]

If I wanted to get few custom keycaps for my wooting 60he what size or type would I look for?

[robust siren]

the keycap profile is up to you, just make sure they have an mx-style stem and the spacebar is 6.25U

Which ones for quality/look/price ?

@stone flax

[whole obsidian]

which ones got the best creamy sound?

[silk hound]

would pick kkb personally

[whole obsidian]

those are really W ?

Good quality and everything ?

cause 100$ seems expensive

[silk hound]

Yes its worth kkb is known in the enthusiast space

[calm pulsar]

the more dollars the more creamy don't forget

[silk hound]

divinikey has a sale rn

[calm pulsar]

this isnt rocket science

[whole obsidian]

hahahhaha

[silk hound]

https://divinikey.com/products/keykobo-col-keycap-set if you are from US its cheaper here

[whole obsidian]

im from france actually

anyways

[silk hound]

would check since both will be shipped internationally

ah rip

looks available on my end maybe they cant ship to FR

[whole obsidian]

i think so

bruh anyways 51e of shipping on divinikey

what else do i need to get the better sound possible of everything?

maybe burger mount?

[spark hull]

Hello guys, i'm trying to mod a fulle size wooting two HE for my gf, and i'm trying to look into a compatible full size case that looks a little better then the wooting base one, any ideas would be much appreciated

[whole obsidian]

no idea which case but W bf

[spark hull]

bahaha thanks man

[calm pulsar]

there arent any unfortunately, only if you design and make your own

[spark hull]

I see thank you. Do you know if there's any available pre designed one out there that i would jsut need to have made for me ? like pre existing designs or should i really design the whole build myself ?

[calm pulsar]

maybe someone made their own case and have design files or smth, but I never heard of any

[spark hull]

i see, thank you for your answers !

[whole obsidian]

?

[fluid ravine]

Best for you to receive everything and build it, once you find something you don't like or need to tune you go on from there. Everyone's build can vary on how it sounds.

[winter portal]

I'm a total noob to keyboard stuff. but what is it called when each row of keycaps is a slightly different height?

[whole obsidian]

okay ty!

[winter portal]

I want to try a dvorak keyboard layout, and only discovered this is a thing when all the keys were slightly different heights on the wooting lol

[fluid ravine]

Like Row 1,2,3,4,etc

[calm pulsar]

keycap profiles such as cherry, oem etc

[fluid ravine]

Unless you're talking about key cap profiles

Ye

[calm pulsar]

they have different heights on each row

[winter portal]

yeah, I thought they were all totally interchangeable

[calm pulsar]

there are profiles like SA, PBS and others which have the same height and shape

[winter portal]

oh wait, I just found an image

[fluid ravine]

Ye

[winter portal]

what does wooting use by default?

[fluid ravine]

Oem

Most commonly used is cherry

OEM and cherry is similar, difference is the height

[winter portal]

oh okay I see

apparently oem dvorak keycaps is not entirely a thing unless you want to spend like 80$ lol

or cherry for that matter?

[stray tiger]

Cherry profile is the most common keycap

[prime orbit]

Tempting

Also tempting

😭😭

[fallen echo]

not really sold on finalmouse. too many QC issues. went with a wl sword X and while the design is a bit gaudy for my tastes, the quality is nice.

[prime orbit]

Yeah unf I did too

My sword x sucks

[fallen echo]

[prime orbit]

Dies too fast

Ambi not for me

[fallen echo]

did you crank up the polling rate like crazy?

[prime orbit]

On 2k polling it lasts maybe 4-6 hrs

[fallen echo]

oof

[prime orbit]

Yup

[fallen echo]

yeah no that sounds definitely faulty

[prime orbit]

Yeah plus the shape is not for me

Tried it once

Don’t like it

[fallen echo]

So it’s ULX or v3 pro

If I don’t like the ULX

At least I know I’ll get my money back by selling it

[fallen echo]

[prime orbit]

They will

[fallen echo]

oh wait, gotcha. for the ulx

[prime orbit]

[finite carbon]

[calm pulsar]

check aliexpress, kbdfans has an official store in there, selling raw he

no springs tho probably

[fallen echo]

swagkeys Knight stabilizers or tx ap. if you use jade pros make sure you are ordering the long pole version

[finite carbon]
