what does tolerance mean?

looks like possibility they were gonna call that enlightenment something switch, but can be just like a translation thing

#

if the video is accurate, that is not even CLOSE to silent

#

not even CLOSE to quiet

tropic urchin
#

Technically it’s silent if everyone wears headphones or are deaf so there’s that

kind helm
#

after watching that video i am even doubting if that little piece of silicone is actually doing anything at all.

#

sorry my mistake, those two pieces of silicone, DOULBE SHOULDER MUTE PAD

calm pulsar
#

cleaning done
I need me an ultrasonic cleaner💀

kind helm
#

think the cheap one glarses were using in his vid is not so expensive

#

respect the craft ❤️

calm pulsar
#

whats left is to lube, tune sw knights and build

safe stag
#

lmao

#

just buy lekkers v2 at this point

#

they said interruption-free and dual rail in the same sentence
what if dual rail is just a marketing shit preventing us from getting a smooth switch

calm pulsar
#

seems so xd

tropic urchin
chilly mural
tropic urchin
#

It just seems very unnecessary

chilly mural
#

oh, aww

calm pulsar
#

yeah jade pros are way better, nice and smooth

tropic urchin
#

They just seem to keep doubling down on it for w/e reason

calm pulsar
#

if I didnt want to build a frankenswitch I'd go for jade pros easily

tropic urchin
#

Jade maxes feel ‘fine’ if that’s all you’ve ever tried, but the facade ends very quickly when you have something to benchmark it too

chilly mural
#

Umu

tropic urchin
#

Missed the Jade pro boat so I decided to build my own 😤

calm pulsar
#

lol yeah, but yours is also going to be clearer on rgb

tropic urchin
#

I could live with the tainted RGB

#

Would’ve saved me a lot of hassle 🤣

#

The one thing the maxes showed me is that I’ll never use a non POM stem again

kind helm
calm pulsar
#

I'd prefer keeping the name jade knightssmile

tropic urchin
calm pulsar
#

damn the lube I got this time is way better
the last one was too thick for 205, I think it was either fake or mixed up lol

#

this time it's great and I checked the listing to make sure the factory is the one where they make krytox

polar girder
#

Damn so many Raw Knight enjoyers

#

Making me want to try

tropic urchin
#

@calm pulsar do you think I’m cooked for my gold wire, I ended up ordering from zkeebs which supposedly also lubed/wire balanced it bc the other vendor had it out of stock apparently

#

If it is just standard metallic I prob will just accept it as is, but would be cool blobaww

tropic urchin
calm pulsar
tropic urchin
#

They had the gold in the picture so figured why not instead of waiting til late november

#

Since they def didn’t have the gold from mechanical keyboards

polar girder
#

That’s sweet

calm pulsar

#

Yeah need raw and pingless springs

calm pulsar
tropic urchin
#

Im practically the inventor of the sunk cost fallacy given I’ve lubed the maxes, raw springs and will be creating the Gateron RAW God HE switches

tropic urchin
#

When you’ve spent so much time you have to see it thru 😭

tropic urchin
#

That might be a keeper

#

Or Geon Jade Gods 👀

#

Farewell ambassador title you didn’t fit 🥲

#

All the ppl in general are gonna be like “OOOH WHERE CNA I GET???!!!!?” And I’ll just tell them it’s limited edition 1 of 1 set

calm pulsar
#

lol true

#

I will probably make a vid on my jade knights and lock in a contract with geonPepeBusiness

tropic urchin
#

My Wooting collab of lazurite keycaps + geon jade gods are going to be the first heavenly keyboard

calm pulsar
#

rdr1 on steam release in 45 minutes

tropic urchin
#

I was shocked they already remastered it 👀

dawn stag
#

is it even a remaster

tropic urchin
#

Was wondering if it would ever get love since I never played the first

dawn stag
#

im pretty sure they just ported it

tropic urchin
#

Oh rip

#

Well it’s time for the modding community to remaster 🙏🏻

calm pulsar
#

yeah they probably ported the new version that came out on ps4 recently

dawn stag
#

$50 for a 14 year old game byw

#

lol

tropic urchin
#

Could be worse, could be $69.99 with PS3 graphics

calm pulsar
#

could be jade gaming remastered

polar girder

viscid gulch
#

Why is rdr so popular

tropic urchin
#

Ppl like westerners

viscid gulch
#

The game looks alright :p but everyone praises it

tropic urchin
#

And rock star

viscid gulch
#

True that

calm pulsar
#

maybe it affects it somehow, but if lubed both are probably the same

#

I will be bag lubing mine

tropic urchin
#

It looked a little longer, but das cool

polar girder
#

Nah nah

#

You already said it bro

tropic urchin
#

The one thing I didn’t like as much was the stock raw spring

polar girder
#

Too late

tropic urchin
#

That’s about the only thing I don’t like about the RAWs

calm pulsar
#

and with the spring being longer too

polar girder
#

The entire switch or just the spring

calm pulsar
#

I think tolerances are comparable

tropic urchin
#

Jade pros being the only Gateron switch worth getting 🤣

calm pulsar
#

maybe technically on raws they are better, but jade pros are still way nicer than normal jades and lekkers on tolerances

tropic urchin
#

#swindled

calm pulsar
#

I mean raws are cheaper but it also depends where you're from

#

for me jade pros are even cheaper to get

#

than geons

#

but I got em all 😄

tropic urchin
#

Or I mean sorry the boxed pros

calm pulsar
tropic urchin
#

Those will just nuke your keyboard instead of your wallet

calm pulsar
#

gonna have to do eco rounds

#

@polar girder I mean if you want to try out a closed bottom switch, in my opinion jade pros are kinda nicer to me now that I tried them
but the majority here will say raws, so there's that

polar girder
#

I’m kind of at a point I just want the cleanest sounding/feeling switch

#

I am honestly attracted to the shorter travel

#

Still don’t love the sound

#

But it’s clean so there’s that

calm pulsar
#

that true

#

well again you could get raws and have a shorter travel clean sounding switch AND the ability to make probably the cleanest sounding open bottom switch as well

#

cause the "monochromes" are very clean

kind helm
calm pulsar
kind helm
#

most have raw, they will say good things for the money they spenddogekek

calm pulsar
calm pulsar
tropic urchin
#

The Pro Max spring is money 🤩

#

Now Geon needs to make it standardized

#

Or even improve it for better hifi mahjong sound

polar girder
#

Soooo like I already know they’re not it lol

#

But yeah

calm pulsar
polar girder
#

Max even more so it seems like

#

But I don’t like fking with finnicky switch

#

Seems inconsistent to say the least

calm pulsar
#

yeah

polar girder
#

So I guess buy Jade pro and raw. Try them both. Then try BK bottom and stem, raw top, pro spring

calm pulsar
#

that's the waygigachad

tropic urchin
#

Jade max price for none of the negatives 👀

calm pulsar
polar girder
#

Is Jade max the POM stem one?

calm pulsar
polar girder
#

Oh the pro is Pom stem

#

anyone know how to fix stabilisers on a 60he right shift key that are stuck in the down position? keyboard came like this

so 259eur is what we try to make as cheap as possible right. so you just buy microsoft for roughly 3trillion USD. then you save 260eur and can buy something else for those 260eur

easy money saving tipps

#

60he pro mention was not mentioned in a joking way though

#

neither were the references to it later and Calder discussing it happening later

kind helm
#

i asked sander before and he said something along the lines of "one step at a time"

#

it would suck if i get the module then see the updated module comes out like 2 weeks later

glacial wind
kind helm
#

like that purple OP1 8K with the better sensorSwitchyCry brought it like 1 week before that was out

glacial wind
#

It’s not exactly the first time staff have pretended a thing that was confirmed was fake news then it was confirmed true later

#

Although I get why they don’t want the cat out of the bag. The better path would be to just not comment on it though

kind helm
#

I kinda assumed that since 80HE version exist now, updating 60 wouldn't be difficult, but i never ran a business in my life :3

polar girder
#

Transparent? EW. GROSS

#

Need full opaque black

glacial wind
#

was the same for the knob they’re making being told officially that it was not a thing even though we knew 100% it was a thing, until too many people knew and there was no point denying it anymore

marsh saffron
glacial wind
#

Moist knob and moist lekker switch

marsh saffron
#

Still need a wooting numpad too

#

Cmon calder

glacial wind
#

It’s been awhile since Calder leaked actually

#

He hasn’t done a major leak since the knob stuff. Has to step up his leak game

kind helm
#

knob coming? on what? at least gonna be like a 65% for a knob to make sense rightSwitchyThink

glacial wind
#

we don’t have any release dates for it though so who knows how far off the knob, custom wooting switch or 60he pro projects would be - could be a year for all we know

ionic breach
#

on its own as an accessory i believe

kind helm
#

maybe like something similar to uwu

ionic breach
#

i think it can be used on any keyboard

kind helm
#

that would make sense to me

ionic breach
#

like instead of using a switch there

kind helm
#

but if its like some attachable

#

on like a 60

#

SwitchyOops maybe a tiny bit horrifying

#

also that would mean you need a plate to go along with it

glacial wind
#

Nah they described it was fitting into any of the existing lekker boards

#

So I doubt it’d be some Frankenstein thing

jade storm
kind helm
#

if its like the size of a switch, then it would be hard to use no? since it would be so close to the switches around it

#

dogekek maybe i just lack the imagination

calm pulsar
#

speaking abt frankensteins, what's left is to lube raw stems and bag lube springs SwitchyPog

glacial wind
#

They’re all 1 switch sized

#

Outside of a few exceptions

kind helm
#

yea but usually they leave out some space around it

glacial wind
#

It’s just 1 switch size

#

and can be swapped out for lcd screen or other things

kind helm
#

ic

calm pulsar
#

will there be 61 knob packs for the whole board

kind helm
#

i kinda just imagine it on the 60, its like i need to be careful not to hit the keys around it when i use the knob

unique jetty
#

Anyone know where to look out for aftermarket 80He cases? I know it’s pretty early but what companies usually announce these things so I can keep an eye out?

kind helm
#

i doubt any company other than wooting themselves or through like a colab would make a case for 80he

#

80he feels like more of a replacement for 60he. and anyone that would get 60 probably nowadays wouldve go with a module instead.

glacial wind
tropic urchin
glacial wind
#

we have no info on who that company is - but we know 1 company is interested in doing it at least

kind helm
#

interesting, i thought the market for that would be too small.

unique jetty
kind helm
#

alumeh is just a case made by wooting

unique jetty
#

Oh ok wasn’t sure if it was a collab with a company or just the product name

unique jetty
#

Would Wooting announce this news when the time comes or would it be purely dependent on the third party marketing

glacial wind
ionic breach
#

its a collab

kind helm
#

think you can look into frog legra(think i spell this wrong, you can look at "frog mini" which is replaced by this new one) and salvation, those have different mounting style

ionic breach
#

legera?

#

nope

kind helm
#

owlab is making something with wooting though right, but i heard its friction mount

ionic breach
#

leggera

ionic breach
#

one rose gold another darkish grey

glacial wind
#

yeah owlab one been shown a couple times

kind helm
#

and i think in the few screenshots i saw for that, you can remove the bottom standoffs

#

not sure how they gonna implement it but thats pretty exciting

#

like how they would support the pcb with no cut outs for gummy oring. i am guessing some sort of foam on the corners instead of metal standoffs

#

owlab is pretty good in the past so yea blobaww

polar girder
#

By the way

Shit picture

But sweet keycaps

the 40g are a bit to light for my liking but we shall see. I might buy heaver springs

tropic urchin
#

You created it so it’s yours sergeant 🫡

#

#customized

tropic urchin
#

And sounds

#

Going from standard geon 50 —> Max 55g —> 80g for artisan all feels really different

tulip rapids
tropic urchin
# tulip rapids would you say 40g to 50g is a huge difference?

I haven’t tried 40g but I don’t think it would be a huge difference. I’ve heard others say it’s not a big gap. I’d try the 40s out for a week and see if you fat finger any keys by accident. If yes then maybe try some heavier ones

#

50 to 55g was more of a sound than feel difference so I think it would be about the same for 40 to 50

#

But then again the max spring is longer fwiw

tulip rapids
#

ahh i see

#

i definitely give that a try. I was gonna buy 50g but it was sold out

tropic urchin
#

I went 50g for my RAWs as a middle ground anyway since I wasn’t sure

tropic urchin
#

Worst case you can get the heavier pingless spring

#

Which arc liked a bunch

#

Think that’s going to be in the 60g range

#

80g def tho is a large difference 🤣

#

I almost didn’t get it to fit in my switch

slate fox
#

What you do is just add some other item that has the “welcome deal”

#

And once it applies to that product then you can add more of those switches to the cart

kind helm
#

i can't wait for the sound test

calm pulsar
#

for venom

wild hemlock
#

of course im niot

calm pulsar
#

nice

wild hemlock
#

carbon plate

calm pulsar
#

the spacebar wire sucks

kind helm
#

just bend it a little bit. i recently just learned wire balancing and it seems decent

wild hemlock
#

is the SW knights v2 good in terms of QC?

calm pulsar
wild hemlock
#

as i ordered them yesterday

calm pulsar
#

they are considered high end

#

can be lubed with krytox only

#

so easier to tune

calm pulsar
kind helm
#

xD

wild hemlock
kind helm
#

you from cn?

calm pulsar
#

nice ventilation

#

you won't need water cooling for your pcb

wild hemlock
kind helm
#

sound is gonna go everywhere but from what i heard not too bad

wild hemlock
calm pulsar
#

make sure your venom and plate are both for 6.25u spacebar

wild hemlock
#

i got 7u

calm pulsar
#

ah nice

wild hemlock
#

for both

calm pulsar
#

I love 7u

kind helm
#

thats pretty good

calm pulsar
#

damn its cool that they have CF plate on taobao, I might even order one

#

cause geon only has alu and fr4

kind helm
#

price kinda crazy

#

its 119 usd on kbdfan

#

thats 100 yuan

calm pulsar
kind helm
#

holy60 case

calm pulsar
#

oh nice

#

this one seems made of diff material tho I think

#

compared to kbdfans

#

but yeah the price is insane

kind helm
#

you can also get like a panel for the bottom

wild hemlock
#

yeah

#

its cheap

#

and decent

#

what keycaps do i get

calm pulsar
#

cause good double shot caps are usually more expensive

#

probably could get some on taobao too

wild hemlock
kind helm
wild hemlock
#

well the case does not come with screws

calm pulsar
wild hemlock
#

so what should i do

calm pulsar
wild hemlock
#

idk

#

i cant check

#

as im not logged in

calm pulsar
# wild hemlock can you check for me?

just checked my aliexpress orders, the size is m2, I ordered for burger mount when I had tofu redux I think

the length was 6mm but this is for burger mounting, might get away with 5mm screws

wild hemlock
#

Okay what is burger mount?

kind helm
#

the screws that came with fr4 plate is also m2, looks the same width as the wooting stock ones

wild hemlock
#

this is my first solo build

calm pulsar
wild hemlock
#

okay thans

calm pulsar
#

just some small orings for screws for softer feeling

wild hemlock
#

Okay ill look at that

#

imma get some white keycaps with japanese text on them

#

full white build

loud gull
calm pulsar
kind helm
#

does your frog mini has some amount of flex

#

wait nvm alu plate

calm pulsar
kind helm
#

for salvation its like you can make it flex but you don't really notice in typing :3

calm pulsar
#

and not flex

kind helm
#

true

#

i think burger mount is probably the same in that way

wild hemlock
calm pulsar
kind helm
calm pulsar
kind helm
#

L wooting

#

fat L

calm pulsar
wild hemlock
#

but isnt 8khz

kind helm
#

pcb price is less than half

#

with cut outs

#

with 8k

#

nah

wild hemlock
#

what do i need to insert the switches

#

just the plate and the pcb?

kind helm
#

the only big advantage for wooting is no software on pc

calm pulsar
#

well its true that venom has nice enthusiast features, but 8khz is the least interesting

and wootility is still a bit nicer

glacial wind
#

I love the venom but is not cheap

kind helm
#

actually yea wooting is not 140, its 140 for pcb + plate

glacial wind
#

It’s not sold as a kit so you have to buy everything on top of a pcb

crimson sky
glacial wind
calm pulsar
#

wooting also has a dedicated team of devs which means the firmware is better on the backend

but I still enjoy venom a lot, esp for the 7u layout

glacial wind
#

And even then it’s still a decent chunk for everything before the case

kind helm
#

but it looks much nicer

calm pulsar
#

6.25u is probably a bit more forgiving on the tuning, but the difference os probably very small in that regard

kind helm
#

0.75u bigger only :3

calm pulsar
#

ngl I never want to go back to standard 60% smile

#

cause I love the aesthetics of tsangan

kind helm
#

also when do you use menu

#

that extra button kinda useless

glacial wind
#

if you're in korea i think is the only way you get a venom cheap

calm pulsar
glacial wind
#

if you combine local pricing + all the sales + cheap aliexpress case you can get venom for quite cheap

#

there's some places you can find it on taobao and such, but yeah it's all higher priced than local

calm pulsar
#

@polar girder I did a way better force break this time
stab stickers helped and way less hassle than using tape

wild hemlock
#

well im at like 210 usd on a total venom build

#

not too bad

#

thats before shipping sadly 💀

#

so probably like 250-270

kind helm
calm pulsar
wild hemlock
#

i dont remember their names

chilly mural
glacial wind
#

i think without case i can probably do a venom 60 build in korea for about $110 or so, but that's with a lot of 20% discounts and cheaper local pricing

wild hemlock
chilly mural
#

But then idk how to get the venom pcb itself

wild hemlock
#

oh taobao

#

with superbuy

#

well its 200 dollars lower than the wooting build i wanted

#

so im fine with it

glacial wind
#

realistically if I built venom i'd do a $200-300 build though and buy a nice case etc

wild hemlock
#

i got the lucky60 case off of taobao

#

in resin

calm pulsar
kind helm
#

you got the link for that?

wild hemlock
#

what link?

kind helm
#

venom60

wild hemlock
#

taobao yeah?

kind helm
#

i can only find the plate

#

yea

#

and this plate not the 7U oneSwitchyCry

calm pulsar
#

yeah

wild hemlock
#

affordable venom60he build

kind helm
#

did you get to choose which version of the pcb you get

#

is that something that requires log in to check?

wild hemlock
#

yeah

wild hemlock
#

or some other agent to import it

kind helm
#

DAMN

#

that redo the whole taobao page

#

for US right this is?

wild hemlock
#

its anywhere

#

they run an import service

#

oh and for it not to get seized get the tax free shipping option

kind helm
#

wild hemlock
#

#

#

kind helm
#

wild hemlock
#

kind helm
#

calm pulsar
kind helm
#

wild hemlock
pseudo fulcrum
#

wild hemlock
#

#

and case

kind helm
#

other than fr4 plate, i think i pick one more, cf or alu

#

pseudo fulcrum
#

i thought it needed special switches

wild hemlock
calm pulsar
calm pulsar
#

so a good choice

#

cf is maybe kinda in the middle?

#

never used it

wild hemlock
#

i only want one of them

#

which one do i get

#

fr4 ?

kind helm
calm pulsar
wild hemlock
#

what then

calm pulsar
wild hemlock
#

or nah imma get CF

calm pulsar
#

and alu is way brighter

wild hemlock
#

i still cant find screws that fit the case in my area

#

😭

#

maybe its cause i dont know what im looking for

calm pulsar
wild hemlock
#

but still there is not many m2 5mm

calm pulsar
#

its weird that the case comes with no screws

wild hemlock
calm pulsar
#

but ig they save on the cost as much as they can

wild hemlock
#

its 15 bucks so its not all bad

#

ill probably end up getting a freebird 60 later on

kind helm
calm pulsar
#

maybe you’ll have some extra screws from stabs

kind helm
#

before or after this page

wild hemlock
kind helm
#

oh ok

#

last trout

Okay so, someone was selling their entire setup and had a 60HE and he sold it to me separately for $130 (practically stealing at this point). I've been using the Azoth for a year now and the build quality from that to this is...well, terrible lol. The keycaps wobble really bad on the switches which apparently is a normal thing for Lekker switches? Idk if they're V1 or V2 on this board.

The plate is disgusting so it needs cleaned. What's everyone's recommendation as far as new switches, keycaps, and case? I know the Redux is generally what the go-to is for a case, which is fine. It gives me new plate options so I'm interested in that as well. Switch wise, I'm torn between the Jade Pro and Jade Max

i had to study harder in china when i was in middle school compare to now i am in us doing phdhavo fuckin 8am to 10pm

stab

wild hemlock

kind helm
#

if they have stock stab then i just gonna try them first

#

but if they don't i gonna try knight

#

mj praised them so much

calm pulsar
#
