Yes, IMO. Have you tried other switches?
mechanical? yeah. HE? no these are my first
Could try Raw HEs or Jade Pros instead of going from V1s to V2s.
V1s to V2s are definitely an upgrade but it’d be more worth to try something else I think.
I'll look into those
Gotcha. Would the sound be different if I switched keycaps or kept the ducky keycaps I have rn?
Keycaps affect sound but I wouldn’t bother if you like the current caps.
There just the ducky key caps that came with the Mecha I’ve had the board for years and the caps are still in great condition
Yeah they’re fine.
Yeah similar. Pingy generally considered kind of high pitch also
I feel like it’s a bit of both. Like a sharper pingy sound with a bit of case resonance on top.
Alumaze was similar but less sharp
Hello guys, it's ok if i post photos about my modding here? i finished it
ye
Ofc!
Strongly encouraged
oks,, lets go
well
Oh no
hahahahaha, second
It's a peanut butter brand, I think
Definitely!
Looks good!
1-EVA foam 2mm + foam by default, i put both, default foam is behind the eva foam
Did you stick the foam to the back of the PCB?
3 layers of frogtape (green)
i stick the frogtape to the back of the PCB
the foam dont stick, its just foam, makes the keyboard more stable, better sound, etfc
Ah, it looked like it
i got geon raw he switches, photo number 3
then i got arcade keycaps PBT, XDA profile
😳
😭
it works, why u ask?
rotate how? it's north fading right?
I don’t know how you got it that far in tbh
For all keys but ISO enter.
iso enter is left facing? 😄
Yes
hahahah i had to push 5 mins for place that switch
Should’ve been a warning in the box
i almost broke it
😳😳
well idk if it still works
I hope it does.
ok, gonna try change it :D, sec
It’s only for the enter key you need to turn the switch to the left for the whole board ?
For ISO enter, and it’s just the enter key.
Well for the numpad “+” and “enter” too.
bro i think i gona let it be haha
No please don’t
this is pog
the mounting pin is stabbing the LED in the eye
Weights below the weight?
replaced the foam battery fillers with adhesive wheel weights
Ohh
what’s the weight of each?
wheel weight.
I'm not a car guy, TIL about wheel weights. Makes sense for balancing.
it died
i got it out, but now i place it again and led doesnt work
a minute of silence for him
its left facing right?
😭😭😭
Yes, with the window/diffuser to the left.
Another LED lost to mounting pin.
gg
If you can solder or know someone who can, you could get it repaired.
Woot has loose LEDs that you can buy if you send them an email.
its fine, actually when i play or work i wont even notice the leds xd
and prolly i gona use the board without the leds i had a corsair k70 whole my life and had leds off always 😄
anyways thanks for the help
we'll pray for the soldier key
You’re welcome man, it’s a nice build.
thank u
What are the keycaps by the way?
arcade keycaps, PBT with XDA profile
its from a spanish seller, dont send u link cause it's only spanish version
Np!
on amazon u have some, but not only purple, its like evangelion theme
if not try get some of aliexpress
Was there any dampeners when you opened up your ducky mecha ? @tawdry tree
Dampeners?
Silicone and foam *** under module
That could be the reasoning of a high ping sound
Yeah but the Module’s foam didn’t help much
Hmmm okay so the ducky stock didn’t have much under it huh? Damn
I don’t remember it having foam but maybe it did and I threw it out.
The thin plastic sheet was odd though. I still don’t understand what it was for exactly.
´
If it does I’ll keep it in there with the module foam as well. Yeah I don’t think plastic would do much imo.. but there’s gotta be a reason or they forgot to take it out when manufacturing
What's that in freedom units, a fat hamster?
I thought it was for static maybe but it’s screwed in so it wouldn’t make sense.
That’s great.
led broken on first video, sound of keyboard on second
Are those KoMs I hear?
Raw HEs

Get some tungsten sheet stock for weight
https://www.mcmaster.com/7301N31/
Was ready to perform the baptism 😢
Do you use double sided tape to prevent them from rattling?
You can but I prefer adhesive transfer tape
Foam is for sleeping, metal is for rocking 🤘
This 3m vhb transfer tape has worked well for me
https://www.mcmaster.com/7628A52/
Yup! Had to figure it out the expensive way. They are definetly not compatible!
Can’t get around foam if you want a quiet build.
Silicone doesn’t do it.
Exactly
Neither does nothing.
So foam does nothing ?
Lmaoooo
Fr
My x-ray set finally shipped
@tropic urchin i bought those cheap sketchy jade pros off that amazon link and they’re legit
i think foam is a must, atleast for me, without it there is a big gap in the keyboard
so i just saved like $16
and it doesn't feel good, atleast for me
i agree
silicone is horrible
the nk87 i’ve been trying to fine tune so it doesn’t sound god awful has silicone between the plate and pcb
trying to find a foam insert instead
I liked silicone with my lekkers
But foam + jades sounds way better than with silicone
Atleast they’re not lekker pros for your looting 80HE
Hope you enjoy your jades tho 🙂
what keyboard
My rec would be probably to stick to the stem (if you want) and spring mostly. Messing with Top and bottom housing might have the lube go overboard
At that price one could look at it as a 50 dollar alu til case with a bonus board!
Tkl*
80he
the case is pretty garbage ngl
it’s a friction fit
Only on neon green as well
skill issue then
Anyone got any recommendations when it comes to color coating a mouse. I want to color up the blue to black
buy a ulx comp
if a board cant sound passable without foam then thats a bad sounding board 
Lol nah not waiting another 6 months for my final mouse to appear at my place😭😭😭😭
i waited 3 weeks
Why so bad?
Cap
?
also wtf 225???
No need to lie ☠️😂
We all know how bad finalmouse’s shipping process is
?
the drop was oct 21
oh mbbb
3 weeks and 1 day
🤣
Damn that’s a first 😅😅😅
Usually always delayed for months you got very lucky sir
nah im just him
never luck all skill yfm?
case mounted pcb?
do u mean tray mount or something
or stack mount?
case mount can mean so many things
i think tray mount
it’s mounted to the top case and then screwed into the bottom
So, top mount?
idk it’s like a combo of multiple
i’ve never seen this mount on any other keyboard
all i know is that it’s shit
This is top mount
190 for a mouse is crazy
Finalmeme moment
the name
Got more horsepower
You have to compete against the other scalpers and botters for a place in line to buy it 💀
@harsh dove spotted on Klean's stream hehe
So competitive
☠️
FAX☠️😂
Defiantly a end game mouse forsure
Meh
venom 
Sad it lose against Melgeek and Nuphy
Yesh, venom, best. Maybe I get venom 60he if geon decided to do another preorder
I think it is likely, esp since the firmware is being updated from time to time
so glad I managed to snatch one from korea before it started selling out everywhere
but I did see them on aliexpress btw
2 vendors
I prefer getting it straight from Geon
For now geon on tiger lite will do as a curiosity
Fk bro so am I
Imagine still using a 60HE in 2025
RIP Me
taobao time
I was about to go on a YouTube expedition, but thought I'd just ask here first. For those who have tried the Jades and Jade Pros, for the Pros:
- Is the sound a deeper thocc, or a higher pitch?
- Are the keys 'heavier'/harder to press?
- Do the keys rebound faster, slower, or the same?
for lubing my stabilizers do i need like a "real" lube for it
Can I just use something I can find at my house lol
- Yes sound is a bit deeper
- Objectively yes, but only slightly
- Faster
Alright. Purchasing. Thanks. 😆
what stabilizers are good for the 60he?
This might be a dumb question, but I'm seeing listings for GATERON Magnetic Jade Pro, as well as kutethy GATERON Magnetic Jade Pro - are these the same things?
the ones that come with it
i assume that kutethy is just a seller on amazon
I mean it doesnt sound good
have you already tuned them
ok
do that first

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...
I mean they wiggle
"they dont sound good"
Also that
going off of that
just start with tuning
lubing what needs to be lubed, greasing what needs to be greased, and balancing wires if need be
even if you bought new stabs youd more or less be doing the same thing anyways
so might as well do that to the stabs you have on hand
So can I just use some random shit at my house to lube them
not at all
Bruh
i mean u can try, but it is not going to be a good experience most likely
But wooting states they are prelubed right?
unless u have dielectric grease or something similar on hand then u can definitely use that on wires
states?
oh
yeah
they are
but more likely than not u could still be facing stuff like rattle so
But I mean if they wiggle doesnt that affect the sound too?
wiggle mean mean so many things
send a video if u want
Another instance of Amazon being an annoying beast. Recommended Jade Pro 90 pcs option was AUD $145 from Amazon Germany, arriving in Australia January 4th. Yet if I head into the almost-hidden 'other offers', I can buy from Amazon US for $135, delivered on January 2nd.
Go home, Amazon. You're drunk.
i mean
dude u were planning to buy new stabs
u were still going to have to lube them up in all likelihood
whats the difference with doing that to the stabs u already have on hand?
But some of them have those screws
so atleast it would stay in place and not wiggle
?
.....
my guy
there arent even stabilizer cutouts on the non plus for screw-ins/pcb-mounts
those stabs arent even compatible
Oh right ofcouse that too
he got it

...
just get durock v2s for $30 
nuh uh :((((
Likely Amazon sellers being Amazon sellers and slapping their nonsense names on things
I just hate that I have to order them
Gateron makes the switches
yea nothings gonna be deliverd til next year too
yo buy those kutethy gateron magnetic jade pros
i ordered those and just got them today, and theyre legit
for like a solid $16 cheaper than retail
Just did! Did some searching and yep they're just another seller, legit product.
Good price it seems.
I bought Gateron Jade pro’s for 55$ today on Amazon
90 pcs?
rip dawg
do you have a 60he or 80he
Yeeee that 10% free code I got came in clutch
80he
USD $69 through kutethy
Down from $76, or so they say
USD $89 including shipping and Australian GST tax for import.
Still cheaper than buying local, by a bunch.
All I knew is that I needed the 90 pcs switch set, hah
I paid like 50 euros for 70 geon raws
i paid 40 bucks ish
I already replaced all the switches with Jades... now just days later it's time for the Jade Pros.
Are they better, though? Or are we in subjective territory?
I like the idea of the longer spring on the Jade Pro.
don't ask me
fake
Anyone want to buy some Jades cheap? 😆
5 euros + shipping
I don't think it's terribly worth the money to upgrade from Jade -> Jade Pros.
U live in the us?
Australia
I'll let you know. 😅
I'm sure I'll have ragrets.
But whatever.
IT'S CHRISTMAS, TREAT YO' SELF.
So I'd have probably pay more for the shipping + taxes even if I got them off you for 5 euros
Wish I had money
and a job
and lived on my own
So I could
like
keyboard
wooting
and shit
Through Amazon, Geon Raw HE is slightly more expensive for me than the Jade Pros anyway.
Ah yeah, much cheaper on AliExpress. AUD $98 instead of AUD $135 for the Jade Pros.
You needn't, I have both and am speaking from experience.
Just got the new case too its nice
Well now I feel like I should cancel the order, hah 😄
It's just my opinion. I do think they are better than the originals.
If they sound deeper and the force required + spring-back is slightly more pronounced... I'll like them more. I guess it's just a question of how much more.
Sure, and they may be a worthwhile upgrade for you. I just found the difference kinda subtle, but still nice.
I didn't regret it.
You keep the OG Jades, or on-sell them?
I kept them all. I'm sitting on a dragon's horde of switches.
I think geon's sound nice and have awful build quality.
And the stickiness at the top is a little 👎
The click sounds really thin in that video. Is it just the video? I like a thicker, deeper sound.
fuck foam
cam has a similar build but with better recording setup
Geon has a deeper sound than Jade/Pros
peak testing, js spammin "\\" every now and again
It's hard to intimate how something sounds via recording without recording them all at the same time w/ the same settings
its backspace
i assumed as much js funny to see "\" lel
Jade pros better
split whatnow
split backspace
we love gunshot spacebar
so like backspace right above enter key?
yeah
gotcha
and then u make swap the stabilized key usually with tilde and pipe
~ and what now
pipe
what
you call that pipe? i call | bar
have i been lied to my whole life
See I think it sounds much better from afar - same w/ most switch recordings. At least of switches I like the sound of.
all sound recordings are a lie and the best they can offer is comparison :<
i knew i wasnt trippin
Pipe / vertical bar are interchangeable names for it. Neither is wrong.
ya
ya
I imagine pipe is more popular among programming nerds, same as how # is called "hashtag" by children.
and octothorpe by assholes
ngl hashtag is common among adults too, its called pound by people in more professional fields in my experience
ahahahahahahah
octothorp do be funny soundin tho
I think it would be interesting putting backspace somewhere other than its natural position. I got very used to control being in the caps lock position many years ago (I believe this was a Solaris thing?)
i did it cuz hhkb is bae
got used to it just too nice
me personally i rebound backspace to my spacebar and use caps lock to type space
I was there w/ you on the hhkb. I just use ctrl so much in linux/vim land.
Damn you are on another plane of existence. I don't think I could or would be willing to move space.
very convenient trust, ring finger go brrrr
I do like the idea I've heard about split space, since I only ever hit space with my right thumb. Could definitely train myself to use left to do backspace with time.
Nice, I do believe you. Having all the keys you actually use often within non-stretch distance makes sense.
i swapped it back to normal tho cause my ring finger be weak
i used that for maybe like half a year
but js not sustainable for me
cause i kept accidently hitting tab lmao
i type weird as hell so like its basically all reactionary when im lookin at my keyboard and muscle memory without any indicators when im not
GREAT VIDEO THAT WAS RELEASED BY WOOTING SHOWING MULTIPLE SWITCH SOUND TESTS!!! 👍🏼
https://youtu.be/xFCu2hSg-oQ?si=kigOR95b2xWzpBZU
Many requested a sound test with all the new switches in the Wooting 60HE. Now I can please all of you with a proper friction fit sound test! Switches tested in the video are the: Lekker V2, Genty Silent, regular Jade, Jade Pro, Jade Max, Magneto RGB, Magneto POM and the RAW HE.
🛒 Get the Friction fit pad https://wooting.io/product/friction-fit...
See this is why you gotta move caps lock
I put some nice headphones on and had a listen... Jade Pro seems to sound quite a lot nicer than Jade. Geon HE sounds fractionally better than Jade Pro, too.
But, it's also the longer spring on the Jade Pro that has my attention.
how long is the jade spring?
i love those "ads" so much they were so funny
i couldnt stop laughing for the whole like 10 minute compilation
oh so same as the TTC KOMs alrigthty
Geon Raw HE has a 15.0mm spring, Jade and Jade Pro have 20mm
Yeah I believe they're the same or very similar
imma install 22mm in mine js for bragging rights hehehhehehe
Jade defo doesn't have 20mm
Is friction pad better or actually screwing the module into the case better ?
only jade pros got longer spring
preference
nice one lmaoooooo
i hope me installing 22mm springs in mine wont break them
id really hate to see them KoMbust
Turns out that was the secret for fusion reaction after all
Think I'll stick with the Jade Pro order for now and sell the Jades when they arrive. Tempted for HE but am pretty certain I'll prefer the feel of the longer spring. cbf custom modding the switches.
do people actually like traymount
interesting choice
i assume this is mostly just for the longer spring?
geon needs to drop long he springs
👅
buy longer spring, install longer spring, profit
all too easy
God I wish I could collapse messages
In that video above, HE and Jade Pro both clearly sound better than normal Jades. So that's a win. But yeah, the spring is the drawcard.
Price difference for me is about AUD $40 (USD $25). Buying longer springs and spending the time installing them isn't something I want to do for the sake of $25.
real, but wheres the fun in that?
I'll just cop the price diff and await delivery of the Jad Pros.
T-T
it takes like 30 seconds per switch bro
and thats on the high end
Yeah cbf.
¯_(ツ)_/¯
I swear I have to look up an initialism from here multiple times each day
you mean acronym?
cant be fondled?
No, he means initialism. The correct definition. 😄
cant be fracked?
Acronyms are always initialisms, but not all initialisms are acronyms.
i pronounce all initialisms like acronyms cause letters are letters 😄
ye
So cbf is "cubf"?
sorta
its short for cant be fondled
lawl vs l-o-l
he cant be fondled to spring swap
Attempting to pronounce cbf as an acronym sounds something like "caboof"... it's a stretch that requires addition. Thus remains technically an initialism. 🙂
That a challenge?
i say rofl like "roffle"
That one I've heard
roflcopter
like its like Se-b-F
same
Good choice my jade pros come in next week 🙂
But like, wtf? Whatfuh?
i say lmao like le-mOw
W VID
Caps lock again broseph
Modding channel turns into Grammar Nazi channel. Love it.
is it ok if i change the stock spring of gateron jade pro with lekker spring?
I could talk about KoMs some more but the people aren't having it.
dont you js love it when the letters were lettering and everything was all lettered? good stuff fr
i like koms
gimme info
You're cool. We're cool.
I like KoMs as an acronym, beyond that I'm not yet convinced.
Should be fine
js start sayying every initialism and such as acronyms and itll start being natural lmao
Though you'd be missing out on the longer spring bit
reactions of people are thhe most fun in person
Wait, why? Curious.
Length?
I imagine weight
I've thought about popping my 60g lekker springs into my OG Jades to try them out
put 80g+ springs into every switch for finger gains
I think it will be lighter when press idk
There was a monstah either here or in 80HE channel talking about putting I think 100g into everything. I couldn't imagine the pain.
Jade pro springs are pretty light already, just fyi
honestly its not that bad
I think the lightest lekker spring pack, the 35g, is only 1g lighter than the jade pros?
Yeah, they're 36
Bois should I be buying the module from wooting or off another website what would be faster ?
buy a venom :3
you can buy 150g springs and get used to them within a month, but anything above like 250 is prly js gne be pain
ive seen like 3 people use one of those, why do people keep recommending them?
I feel like I would become like Lennie from Of Mice and Men if I used 150g's
lmaoo nah trust it aint that bad, fingers are stronger than you think, esp if you lift or rock climb
because venom is good, venom is king, venom is love
imma js assume sarcasm and the venom is js bad / worse than the 60he then
I do lift, don't climb, but I worry the shock of bottoming out w/ all that force plus how much I use keyboards I'd cause myself real injury.
tldr its by geon, has good performance, is half the cost of the module, has center udb support for expanded case options, has increased layout options (7u, 6.25u, tsangan bottom, split bs), performance on par with 80he if not better in current state (8khz 0.1mm ap/rt), great fw and sw, and development is nice
And yeah yeah I shouldn't bottom out, but how else am I gonna hear that KoM machinegun fire
not sarcasm but sure
human fingers can get used to 150-200 pretty fast, youll be fine so long as you build up to it
so then is it better than the 60he/80he? cause ive been getting no answers
cause the people who want it alr got it
and ur on a wooting server
where people mostly talk about....
KoMs!
yea
Yeah.
yeah
so then can you enlighten me since you seem to know
...people mostly talk about wootings
i meant about the venom bruh oml
Alright that got me
Also now I gotta look up oml 😭
"oh my life"
im christian and dont use the lords name in vain
didnt i just say
elaborate
:p
damn is the 80he broken rn
wdym
oh yeah there was some issues with the 80he acting sussy on anything but 1khz but i think a fw update fixed that
gotcha, but wdym by if not better than it in its current state? does the venom do something better than the woot?
Mostly
i mean
if we look at it right now
the venom60 performs better than a wooting60
just like... flatly
you said better than 80he tho
Those ms response times?
If so, I could not tell the difference between any of them, no shot.
we need to get a 1/2 split board with 8khz true polling for peak performance
I don't think any human could, but I'm not gonna argue
people gotta stop chalking things up to "uhh ur not gonna feel 0.86 to 0.16"
like ofc u arent dude
the way boards are now a human cant tell the diff, rn its js a software game
I get that it adds up in the chain
it doesnt
but it does give a number that then fills up the idea everything just feels more responsive when added up
some people just like to have their gear to have the best numbers, regardless if they can feel it or not
like ik people who had a wooting, switched to venom, and went "yeah i can feel it this is tighter"
and thats it
just tighter

Sure it does, if there's 5 things adding 10ms each, that's 50 millis, which is noticeable.
only reason there is to shill venom is because geon's behind it, performance and whatever now doesnt matter half as much if it doesnt carry anything as close to the support wooting would have down the line
but it looks like geon does care so :3
Well you gotta market
wdym?
when you input an action and you get ultra tiny delay that goes unnoticeable then every action is gna have a tiny bit of delay which still goes unnoticeable since the delay in time is unnoticible per action regardless
Same w/ wooting on the 8khz feature
yeah the bigger number race is funny
I'm saying that in a serialized pipeline of delays, the entire pipeline may be noticeable where the individual bits may not
Just how it goes. I'm not saying it actually is in practice.
8khz is probably where it ends when it comes to useful amount of hz, anything above that requires a framerate higher than is possible by monitors rn and humans cant notice the diff bettween them at 8k, if 8k isnt where the spd game stops then its damn close to getting there
Anyway, getting kinda lost in the sauce.
geon is developing a feature to maximize scan for 8~10 keys which allows 0.12ms latencies for those keys
I don't care about 8khz, don't even use tachyon on my 80 cause it's extra juice for no reason for me.
i mean you wont get a seralized pipeline of delays that noticilbe in practive unless you have an insane APM that translates to action in game with little to no lag at all and high fps
my guy you havent seen me in a hard game of dress to impress
it gets crazy there
💦
what other features does the venom have that woot doesnt?
uhhhhhh uhuh
......
its like
u just
glossed over all this
yeah ngl ive been eating some really good oxtail
have not been paying that much attention
ah so its js a bit faster and more layout options, and cheaper
"you feel me"
thats good too lmao
and the fact u can fit it in 2x more cases
is there any major sound differences between the lekker v1.5 and the lekker v2?
eh
less of a diff than 1 to 1.5
nothing to buy v2's for when u alr have v1.5 type deal
gotcha, as an avid disliker of the 60 profile its no diff to me but it do be interesting
is it even worth it to upgrade from the stock 60he+ switches then to the l45s? these switches do feel a bit heavier
if u dont like heavy get lighter switches, its "worth" is subjective
my brudda rivs beautiful venom
gyatt
looks like a block of tofu
rivs, gyatt 😭 😪
that's gonna patina like crazy
u not understanding these words?
No!
ngl idk what rivs means either
on riv ik u just didnt say that
Cherry profile keys ?
thee EV car company?
yea
on what now
Is geon raw he compatible with wooting 80he?
ya
I wrote he lol
what is riv bro
what are some good mods if I want to stick with lekker switches to make it sound better more thocky / creamy
cant make it thocky and creamy is js overlubed
I'm really looking forward to some after market metal being produced for the 80HE. The zinc alloy feels great, but looks like naff kiddy shit because of the treatment around the edging.
Just no rgb
Damn
you mighta js gotten a bad case, mines clean as hell all around the thing
I ordered zinc one today
what makes it thocky, i have heard about the black knight
Huh, strong disagree. I love the look of the zinc.
If it can get to 10k, it's going to be goated for rhythm game
thats subjective lmao, if its clean then thats the look some people want. and idk whachu mean by "kkiddy shit" around the edges
Very subjective. And I hate it. 😆 Thankfully it feels great.
10 key is enough for most rhythm game that's played on keyboard
But I'll still switch in a heatbeat when a better option comes along.
yoou cant get a conventional thock sound in an HE board, ive tried for months, trust me
Respectable
first you gotta buy a geon
if venom tkl supports it, I already got it. If it's 60 only, eeeeeeee, later
I know every hobby has its own language, but every time I hear someone describe something as "creamy" wanna pull my ears off.
thhen whyd you bbuy it????
mmmmmmmmmmmm creeeeeeeaaaaaaaammmyyyyyyyyyyy
I’ve been using mechanical switches and I play better with them I think it’s because they have 33 gram force
sweet
What’s a switch that is 33 grams and Hall effect
Or 35
Jade pros and TTC Koms are 35grams
That and anything you spring swap to 35g
good
prretty colors are peak
I’ve never swapped springs lol
i can change the aesthetic of my setup with a click of a button its so dope, and since most of my things are black my room overall looks the same
its pretty sick, emphasiss on the pretty
its very easy, takes like 30 seconds a switch if ur new
Really isn't hard, doesn't take that long either.
Just something to keep in mind so you don't box yourself in
js plop em open, pick it up, swap the spring, place them together, s a n d w h i c h, then ur done
I’ll consider it since I like trying new things
I had to call my wife over to do the sandwich once. It's so satisfying.
And no that's not a euphemism.
pause (?)
im so confused dawg
Reassembling a switch. The last step.
Ttc magnetic switches are a dollar each how’s the wobble
Feels good to click it back together
so u called u wife over to assemble the switch?
they have the least wobble out of any switch available
Just push it back together to see how it felt. Y'know what, she's my wife and I'll beat her when I want to.
joke
Dayum
😂😂😂😂
KoMs don't wobble, they are a faithful bunch.
Will it be crazy if I only buy 10 for the movement keys
I might because although I don’t care about wobble when gaming I hate it when typing
0.0001ms faster because less deadzone
in china they even sell in 4s for the cheapos
That's smrt
I should order from ipopularshop right ?
look at these skus
I'd load up on a boatload of 4 packs to try them out
woot
you get a plastic switch puller for all skus too
The KoMs? They're kinda polarizing, but I like 'em
Jade pros
Yeah,can’t wait to try them tbh but I’ll wait till my keyboard gets closer
They're fun, but hopefully you don't plan to use them near anybody that might be asleep 📣
does the polycarbonate plate with the silicone make a good sound difference
Because it was the only metal option.
Damn
Jade pros make less sound ?
Far less
Alr
Just gonna order 10 to try them when I get 80he
I’ll try the l60s first haven’t tried them in a while
Esp. since they're pricey, yeah you may wanna try a sample first
I even realized my movement is so much cleaner with 1.0 or I think 1.5 actuation force
It’s either that or the 33 grams switches
But it’s way cleaner
what 33 gram switches do you use
Not using wooting rn because I just sold it
Using my apex 9
Keyboard
Nah they’re clacky af
Stem wobble is crazy
That’s why I might just buy 10 for movement keys
ohh so thats not anything to do with the force needed though right
Oh I know what you mean now
Tbh it’s not the great but it gets the job done for basic writing
I get typos once in a while
im on the verge between lekker l45 v2s and gateron jade pros i cant decide
I had l45 v1 and they were not the lightest
Jade pros
If you really want light go jade pros
or should i get jade max's, or is there problems with those
and are jade pros good for gaming as well
Why wouldn’t they
since they aren't made for wooting switches yk, im very new to keyboard modding
All magnetic switches are the same or nearly the same for gaming you’d just change them for sound or stem wobble
are the pro maxes good?
iphone? yeah theyre nice
Black keycaps recommendations?
ive heard mixed opinions on problems with the gateron jade series
mostly the maxes, cos they stick
ah, what about geon raw he
for most people the raws are about the same as jade pros
but the pros are more stable on paper
Hmmm I see
Is the 3.5mm travel on jades a noticable difference from the lekker switches, positive negative or neutral
Does anyone know if the friction fit pad is compatible with the iso-uk layout?
Now I’m on the fence between jade pros and GEON raw he
Jade pro if you can get it cheaper than geon raw
Any major differences? Do they sound better?
Aren’t the jade pros more clacky?
sound is subjective, I prefer raw since it's closer to sounding like sanwa button
Ah
Have you been on Santa's good list?

Maybe????
So for purchasing the raws I just have to switch out the switches like in the Wooting tutorial for the lekkers right? Is the process the same
Yeh, changing them is like that
Perfect
Do I need the switch kit from Wooting website if I’m just planning on switching out the switches and not living
Lubing
No, your keyboard already includes a switch puller
Oh I thought it was only a keycap puller
behind the keycap puller is a switch puller
Like on the same yellow thing right?
Can you take a pic of it? I'm not sure
I thought you're talking about the 80he stuff
One sec let me find it
Oh, yeah, the southern one is the switch puller
Perfect!
Will it get the job done
It can, just be careful since it can break easily
The puller itself?
yeah
Ok
snaps easily if you're not careful
So just use light pressure?
Or should I just get a 7$ metal one from Amazon
Does it have to be like specialized for Hall effect switches or can it be a general switch puller
It can be any switch puller
any switch puller doesnt have to jiadalong
preference
if they mean the venom pcbs, i dunno if they support xinput or gamepad mode, that would be the only thing i think may be lacking, but i don't think that is much of a dealbreaker for most
if anything it just means the spring pushes back against your fingers with that force at that travel depth
My Wooting switch puller snapped on first use. Good thing I had a dedicated one handy.
my 60HE+ one did too lol
This kind is the kind you want. Metal.
$3 each or something with free shipping from Amazon 🙂
These are all of the parts im about to buy to build a new keeb. Everything looks good right? Wooting 60HE+ Module. Friction fit pad. Tofu60 Redux Case with brass bar. Sound dampening foam. GEON Raw HE Switches. Switch Films. O-rings. Krytox 205g0. Stabilizer Grease. GPL 105 205g0. XDA Dye-sub PBT Keycaps. Keycap puller, switch puller, switch opener, stem holder, brush, tweezers.
I don’t think you need the switch films
Sorry for always pinging you @glacial wind
Hello guys i forgot to say something abou the mod i did yesterday, spacebar is total shit, so u have to fix it (placing foam inside) or replacing and lubing stabilizers
Are you snowboarding again? I mean, tis the season
Yeah just a trip with some friends
Very noice
nice, have fun :)
Im jelly, only have man made snow in socal
have fun!
Im more jelly, I haven't even see snow in person
geon raptors is clone lekker v1?
Better material v1 basically. The material makes the chatter less noticable - but you wouldn’t buy either raptor or v1 these days
hi guys, have a question as im waiting for my 80he to arrive. ive bought the gateron jade pros just yesterday, and rmb reading something about the stabilizers having to be changed as well if im going to use the jade pro switches. my question is do i have to buy another set of stabilizers? i bought the module without switches and keycaps
okay, both of them is same on performance?
or 1 of them is better?
He means dont get either of them
my friends told to me raptors better performance and feel than lekker v1
i just make sure it
idk about that
He’s correct, raptors>lekker v1
Anyone have a salvation case and using or used the friction fit pad inside of it ?
Any suggestions for keycaps with good rgb white color to my 60he+ module with tofu redux 60? Price range 20-30$
Wait can you get the friction pad now?
Oh crap you cann
Damn i only took like 2 weeks off and I'm already missing out on a lot of things
Totally. If they were only available as ISO…
Can you put ANSI keycaps on an ISO keyboard?
Or to put it differently, is there an actual difference in switch/pcb layout what would stop me from doing so?
I’m looking into project optimum
I got the original Wooting 60HE during the founders campaign.
Let me know if you find someone that used it in salvation because they are saying it’s kinda dangerous if it short circuits without specific cases which fucking scares me and sucks
Alrighty. Is the grounding a bigger issue than it should be?
Why not just ground them iirc there was a solution for this on a woofing vid with friction fit case 60he?
go an extra 10$ over that and get polychroma v2
or if you dont care about legends then just look up white pom jelly on amazon there should some in that price range
What’s iirc?
@tawdry tree
….
Why
If I remember/recall correctly [ iirc ]

that's fire
Scared about the grounding issue
yea but why use friction pad in long run
its like removing the biggest selling point of the salvation
Idk just wanted to try it. You think it will
Even snug fit? Or do I also have to take out the leaf spring system at the bottom?
I mean I could always put it back later and try the friction fit if it’s fit
Could you send me a link?
I’m in Australia so this might not be helpful: https://amzn.asia/d/h6YeKWB
except the return key and the additionnal key around it, they are all the same keycaps, only the legends change
Sup nerds, can any of you advise some plate mounted stabs in particular? Or maybe there’s a guide on how to drill holes in pcb(60he) or smth
What if you lube up the friction fit pad and then it’s still kind of bouncy salvation but the friction fit pad kind of just fills in all the dead space around the perimeter?

hii, i hope i can fit my future Wooting module gh60plus in my custom case c; ! https://kprepublic.com/collections/case/products/xd60-xd64-xiudi-60-aluminum-case-with-tempered-glass-diffuser

whats wrong with the current ones
I want to mod my keyboard and change everything
Soo many layout option
Would love the layout below the Tsangan, perfect for rhythm game for me
not so perfect for arma tho
Aren’t switches in a different spot? I did some checking in the site and seems like it :/
so ur doing things to do things rather than attain any objective or legible improvement
I just want to improve my keyboard in terms of sound and tactility
yes, but not for every keys, as in you can adapt an ANSI key to suit an ISO but would need some ANSI keycaps and vice-versa
that's not how it is intended tho, on that part I agree with your checking
and as said, what is wrong with ur current stabs that they necessitate replacing
rather than just tuning
wooting is coming tuesday
finished lubing the switches and stabs yesterday so all i gotta do is throw it together
Bro tf is wrong with you? He seeks help, and you just being dumb instead of helping him
You either help or keep your mouth shut
werent the one begging for a pad to be bought for you
oh yeah ur that annoying ass kid
lol
tryna help the guy save money but sure
U r confusing me with someone else, pity to have a bad memory((
all too common people just buy things under the notion of “new thing better”
why buy new stabs and end up having to the same tuning that would have made your old ones in a satisfactory state
nope
lols
If you had basic reading skills you would’ve understood that he has STOCK 60he wooting with awful stock stabs
Ig i can buy shit on my own, no? Im not as poor as you to begging for a handout
? again, quit the skill issue tbh and just tune them… sure he buys new stabs… he would still have to lube and grease and potentially wire balance - all things he can do on his stock stabs to improve them now

Why improving shit to make it 80% shit out of 100%, if you can buy smth cool to make it even cooler?
?
Improving *
oh ur one of those people who probably goes “whats the best stabilizer!-!-!-“ rather than just fix the stock ones
gotcha
HAHAAHHA
So u gotta be that poor jobless mf who gets your shit on birthday and Christmas for mommy’s money?
Get a job lol
my point stands, sure he buys news stabs. He will still do the same exact things he could have done to the stock ones and they will both perform the same
Stabs are stabs
HAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHA
Where is this hostility coming from?
Mf is clueless
again
where is this coming from
what piece of helpful advice have you imparted on the guy
i tell him just buy lube
because why buy new stabs youd need to tune just like you would the stock ones?
lel
how long does standard gateron shipping usually take? might fill my board with normal gateron jades until my pros arrive, but 1. idk how long shipping usually is and 2. idk how aids it's gonna be to repull all my switches again
Won’t improve much. If you tune a fucking ford focus it won’t be better than brand new mercedes. exaggerated example but still good
Pulling jades is actually not bad. Put 'em in.
bet
brainrot skill issue take
stabs are stabs
Jobless mf take
found it
Grow up, stop wasting your mommy’s money
HAHAHAHAAHHAHAHA
Send me pics lol
lol
