so i could use either one essentially. wooting ones if it goes smooth and the provided plate ones if i feel misthreading like cam did

sacred elm
#

yea

dark cypress
#

ok cool thank you. 🙏

ripe turret
#

hi im looking at buying some keycaps but it says its compatible with cherry mx switches and mx clones does that mean it wont work with l60 switches?

ripe turret
#

okkk t hanksss

night atlas
#

Where did you lube em? My jade pros are scratchy after hand lubing all of them...

quasi hinge
night atlas
#

Damn bruh... I'm bout to buy my 3rd set of switches

quasi hinge
night atlas
#

The scratchiness is really bugging me and it's actually pretty audible lol

#

Was trying to but the site didn't lemme buy them for some reason

#

I forgot why lemme check

quasi hinge
#

I have them in all my boards

quasi hinge
night atlas
#

Jesus u got 160

#

??

quasi hinge
#

dogsh*t

night atlas
#

Should I just buy more?

quasi hinge
night atlas
#

i have a 60 so should I just buy like two sets

#

oh ok, i'll just buy 70 then lol

#

if that doesn't work out i have the denggod latenpow

quasi hinge
night atlas
#

This shit happened w/my WS Dashes

#

and now jade pros

#

and I will buy geon raw now lmao

sacred elm
quasi hinge
sacred elm
#

wdym scratchy

night atlas
#

Idk how else to describe it

#

feeling and sound wise some switches are scratchy feeling/ticking sounding

#

almost like it's a tactile switch, for some at least

#

It'll sound good for like a week

#

and then half of them start to be really shitty in that regard

#

also this keeps happening when I try to buy the raws

sacred elm
#

raws wont be any different

night atlas
#

Oh, they're scratchy too?

#

is this a thing w/all HE swtiches?

#

I didn't expect them to wear out THAT fast, just after weeks of moderate use

sacred elm
#

no, jade pros arent scratchy either, lube probably spreads and it changes sound a bit

#

that happens with all switches

night atlas
#

I understand lubing changes the sound, but there's a distinct scratchiness/ticking that i'm 100% isn't supposed to be there as a by product of lubing

ionic breach
#

u mind sending an audio?

night atlas
#

If lubing creates scratchiness that almost feels like a light tactile bump then i guess you're right

#

I can try my best 1 sec

sacred elm
#

did you lube springs

night atlas
#

Yea bag lubed em

sacred elm
#

weird.

night atlas
#

you're going to have to listen pretty closely, i'll try isolate the keys that make it the worst and make a comparison

#

aw fuck lemme convert it lmao

sacred elm
#

mkv moment

quasi hinge
night atlas
#

will send another vid

sacred elm
quasi hinge
#

But I have 160 Raws

#

and moving from raptors to Maxs to Raws taught me a lot

sacred elm
#

Yea I have both of them and when he has jade pros, getting raws will be just money waste

ionic breach
#

by the ticking, do you mean the space bar?

quasi hinge
#

He was even asking if he should get more Jade Pros

sacred elm
#

also i dont hear any scratchiness in that video

night atlas
sacred elm
#

it sounds pretty good in that vid

ionic breach
#

compared to the best mx switches it can be hollow/foamy/scratchy

quasi hinge
# night atlas

Look @sacred elm has more experience than me and can probably do circles around me but I can just say that I never had an issue with my Raws, they were hand lubed and springs were bag lubed

night atlas
#

it's hard to hear in the recording but it's deffo there

ionic breach
#

so idk what ur refering to

quasi hinge
#

Raw 50g ftw

sacred elm
night atlas
#

ok so to clarify, my switches themselves, outside of my stabilizers, have a scratchy FEEL that're almost similar to a very light tactile bump

night atlas
#

i promise u guys it's here 😭 i'm not crying wolf

#

at the top and the upstroke

ionic breach
#

like just when u do a light touch

night atlas
#

mmm wym by that?

sacred elm
#

did you overlube them

quasi hinge
night atlas
#

uh, idk? i just lubed them like normal, lil coat on the railing

#

and the springs

#

some i experimented w/top housing

night atlas
sacred elm
#

how did they feel stock?

night atlas
#

They felt fine, like legit nothing wrong, even after lubing them too

ionic breach
night atlas
#

Yes and some i hear/feel it about half way down/up

#

it's very subtle when i record it

#

i wish i had the audio mixing capabilities to up that frequency

quasi hinge
#

PTSD

ionic breach
#

there is a place where geon raws where stock lubed at a place they shouldnt have

sacred elm
#

thats weird, they should feel very smooth

night atlas
#

They did for like a week

ionic breach
#

and it caused a iffy feel when pressing the top 0.1mm range

quasi hinge
#

just Gateron hate lol

ionic breach
#

but idk if it happened with the pros

sacred elm
#

raws felt poop at the top

quasi hinge
ionic breach
#

^ id take shafie's word for it

night atlas
#

it happened w/ WS Dashes/Jade pros for me, yes I'm aware Dashes are a recolor

ionic breach
#

it is a long shot

night atlas
#

Could you elaborate on the place where i shouldn't lube?

#

Maybe it'll apply to the pros

quasi hinge
#

And if it doesnt..................... (Raws are just waiting for you)

ionic breach
#

lemme find it

#

its a old convo

quasi hinge
dark cypress
night atlas
#

we have a shared problem

#

How long does lube last?

dark cypress
#

i mean i told her before. i could spend on small stuff or go back to spending on my bike....1000$ helmets doesnt excite her

night atlas
#

And is there a place to buy it in bigger quantities

quasi hinge
dark cypress
#

yeah im also curious about that....google said 3-6 months if using the keyboard alot you might need to re lube...is that true?

#

but in the general chat channel...they were saying lube is only for sound

night atlas
#

Some people swear that lube is one and done

#

but some people say to relube

#

I don't know anymore

#

I work from home so I use my keyboard quite a lot

dark cypress
quasi hinge
#

I prefer to be surrounded by metal than my flesh surrounding metal during an accident

night atlas
#

Some people also say u don't need to lube for half a decade which makes me think they don't use their goddamn keyboard at all lol

quasi hinge
night atlas
#

True

#

Feels like mine only lasts a week lol

dark cypress
night atlas
#

as far as sound goes

#

It's mad annoying

#

Lube is mostly for sound and feel afaik

#

keys will work the same, given you do it properly

Nice my gmk caps arrived now only waiting for the salvation case

not all are made equal ( ahem.... Raw)

night atlas
#

I'm very close to being a gateron hater and i'm usually never a hater

quasi hinge
night atlas
#

Could over lubing be a culprit for a scratchy nooise?

#

ok but did u buy them after hearing the complaints

quasi hinge
#

although I use gateron smoothies for my work keeb

quasi hinge
#

I think I made the 2nd review on their website

#

Which of course reflected the hate

#

they gave me a refund and paid for the shipping

night atlas

hey at least u didn't waste any money

#

I'm burning cash bruh

fallen pecan
#

from eyejoker's latest vid, ace68 is even lower latency than the smaller ace60pro

#

vs the madlions nano68/nano68pro, same firmware

#

however he notes that for rythm game users, better to avoid these as the latency goes up if >6 keys are held down simultaneously

ionic breach
chilly mural
#

For 4k is fine, for 5k it's sus, for anything 6k 7k and 8k WHICH IS MAIN, it's fucking useless

#

Infact, if you play djmax where each key mode have extra 2 button you have to worry, it's still useless if 4k, especially at high rank play.

fallen pecan
#

he follows up with boards that dont have this issue: atk 68v2, madlions fire68 pro, magger68he, venom series, hansung magnetox line, wob rainy75rt, everglide su68 and made68pro

#

also notes that the current su68 is an improved product, 0.25ms latency with ~8k scan, but has a larger deadzone than most

#

oh and no web driver

chilly mural
#

hmm, it marks wooting as a product if you want stability, which is fair

ionic breach
#

oh shit he will update the test pepe_notes

little glen
#

First package of the day arrived

New feature for venom ?

sacred elm

ya seems so

sacred elm

Focus mode is like the Beast mode on the m6 boards, boosted scan for 4 to 6 keys

hexed lotus
#

Guys outemu vs akko vs cherry MX vs gateron vs razer switches which are the best for custom keyboards?

high sphinx
fallen pecan
#

For numbers sake, should go down to 0.11ms with it enabled

so i can do all of it at once and dont need to open my case twice

high sphinx

#

Free performance is always good

high sphinx
tropic urchin
tawdry tree
#

I didn’t know GMK still had a warping spacebar issue tbh

#

Maybe it’s impossible to fully prevent

high sphinx
glacial wind
#

Such as the 2he, it’s mostly just more useful for older boards to optimise lower scan/poll to less keys

#

For proper 8k boards it’s kind of not all that beneficial and the gains aren’t like on 2he and older ‘slower’ boards

high sphinx
glacial wind
#

Eh we’re talking like absurdly small free performance at that stage

#

I assume that’s why some boards started doing it, even though the feature is basically pointless on 8k boards

high sphinx
glacial wind
#

To express the gain for the venom for example in seconds

#

We’re talking 0.00004 seconds gained

#

Because it’d drop from 0.16ms to 0.12ms or so

#

it’s basically not even lower number at this point but statistically not relevant because of how insanely small the number is

Good name at least

Fitting for sure

glacial wind
#

Mt tai is a famous Chinese saying and quote for not recognising the true boss

#

“I had eyes but did not recognise mt tai” when the protagonist shows up and kicks ass

little glen
chilly mural
glacial wind
#

It’s because mt tai is a giant ass mountain basically lol

#

So when you recognise mount tai it basically means this is the big boss. The mountain that towers above everything else

Like different heights?

so its a height for the 3rd row from the top

Is there a way to know which keycap is which height?

stone flax

#

the caps should say the row on the underside like R1, R2 etc

fallow relic
#

What about the f1,f2 etc keys being different heights?

#

Is that because of something or

just push them down

Im trying to install the typeplus x yikb screw in stabs for my wooting 80he. its the first time im installing stabs myself. my question is about these stickers/shims? first, what are they for? second, do i need them? do they go on the backside of the pcb or the front? i couldnt find a proper installation guide. also are the circular washers needed? i assumed no, because i didnt see any with the original stab screws. i also assume i dont need the shims since it says "for 1.2mm PCB" on the website of the stabs.
any help would be greatly appreciated.

you’re just mean..

#

😕

calm pulsar
#

actually tactile open bottoms

#

would be cool I think

terse lintel
#

dumb question. can metal keycaps rust from the oils on your fingers?

sacred elm
# calm pulsar not even that I think

I used 60he with jades, then received 80he with lekker v2s and literally couldnt use it even for a week, instantly got raws and jade pros after

#

felt like i was using membrane lol

terse lintel
#

I have raws coming tomorrow

calm pulsar

#

Wish Ive ordered module, now I have two 90pc packs of useless lekkersduh

mental salmon
#

What do you prefer between Raws and Jade Pros?

marsh saffron
#

Raws for rgb

polar girder
#

Stem swapped raptors are my favorite switch so far NGL

#

Just imperfect

polar girder
#

Yes

#

But there’s a bit of friction

calm pulsar
#

they are just super tight in a brute force way, but this causes some friction issues

polar girder
#

I had to ditch them

#

I wouldn’t recommend them

#

But I love them

#

Softest sound and feel yet for me

calm pulsar
#

my frankenswitch is pretty much closed bottom stemswapped raptors, but with a bit less friction issues

mental salmon
#

I am trying to skip both Raws and Jade Pros waiting for the next best thing, but not really happy with the LekkersV2 in the 60HE (Optimum Case + Friction Fit Pad)

calm pulsar
#

dam this looks nice from this angle

sacred elm

#

can even use a machine

#

since theres no leaves to fuck up

I know, I considered it for them

#

but too much effort

stone flax
#

way way less effort

#

But they suck of mx

calm pulsar
#

I feel like if you use those for HE the switch will become wobbly

stone flax
#

all switches get more wobble with repeated actuations

calm pulsar
#

cause of the big stems

tawdry tree
#

effort to buy or make, rather do it myself when typing

stone flax
#

and will go through schizo strats to get there

calm pulsar
#

I've been using my franken for a long time now, feels nice, only a couple left that are a little tighter

tawdry tree
#

😂 it’s fair tbh

high sphinx
calm pulsar
#

but they have standard ones too

stone flax
#

1.2mill (700k center, 500k off axis) actuations, diamond polished, lubed with ghv4 cuz ur we’re so cool

high sphinx

not gonna lie this keyboard is amazing

#

didnt know what to expect since this is my first keyboard at this level

marsh saffron
#

I'm in love with it

dark cypress
#

me too

#

the wrist rest really makes it comfortable

marsh saffron
#

I didn't get a wrist rest

dark cypress
#

and this is before all the mods coming

dark cypress

#

I didn’t lose the rng salvation draw

marsh saffron
#

I just don't know how I'd like the looks of it

#
  • i move my keyboard around a lot
#

And it'd be a bit annoying

dark cypress
#

ahh gotcha

dark cypress

#

That’s sick lol

cyan lark
#

Thanks, yeah not bad for a hundo

#

Looking forward to trying it out

tawdry tree
#

it’s really freaking good is what you meant to say

tawdry tree
#

just a free bonus

#

and it’s a really high quality carrying case at that

cyan lark
#

Yeah I didn't know it was coming with one. Got a small stockpile of hard cases now 😂

dark cypress
#

the raw he's really feel better?

#

these lekker dont feel bad but then again never had a keyboard like this lol

stone flax
dark cypress
#

yeah lol

#

just going off what everyone else says

cyan lark
#

Feel wise I think the biggest differences between Lekker v2 and raws are that raws have more stability and a shorter travel

dark cypress
#

ahh gotcha

stone flax
#

louder and more emphatic typefeel

cyan lark
#

Honestly I wouldn't have hated it if I did lose. This paintjob is really something.

do closed bottom switches affect the keyboard's performance?

harsh dove
#

No

gusty kelp
#

im considering TTC King of magnetic switches, are those good?

harsh dove
#

Yes

little glen
#

they are also expensive

harsh dove
#

You could wait to get those

#

but they are good

gusty kelp
#

they are 70 euros for 70 pieces on aliexpress

sacred elm
#

L price

harsh dove
#

You may find them at a lower cost here in the future, who knows

gusty kelp
#

😮

#

then i MIGHT wait

#

and... what about black knight switches?

little glen
#

jade pro or geon raw he

sacred elm
harsh dove
#

if you want open bottom

polar girder
#

Yeah unless you need black switch. Just get lekker v2

harsh dove
#

^

polar girder
#

Unless you want your switches hella oiled up

sacred elm
#

just get lucifers

harsh dove
#

if you want box stem yeah ig

#

they not that stable tho

#

they are cheap

gusty kelp
#

okay good to know

polar girder
#

Yeah I’d rather get BK over Lucifer probably

mental salmon
#

Cam did you try lubing the LekkersV2 ? if that is the case, did it make any difference?

polar girder
#

But both passable

mental salmon
#

Are those TTC Pom Wooting compatible?

dark cypress
harsh dove
#

Yeah I don't wanna lube again for awhile I think

dark cypress
#

😂

harsh dove
#

Need a mini lube machine for switches

dark cypress
#

i just got the keyboard in today

#

it feels amazing

harsh dove
#

Very nice

fluid ravine
tawdry tree

calm pulsar
#

tell them you have to cerakote your informational warfare weapon

fluid ravine
#

If so then the closest one near me is 21 mins away lol

tawdry tree

fluid ravine

It's pretty killer

high sphinx
tawdry tree

high sphinx
tawdry tree
#

haha yeah

#

#

if it’s under 50

#

at or under

high sphinx

That wrist wrest looks kinda cool imo

i guess i stop for now until i get some wire cutters

stone flax
#

calm pulsar
#

I have alu and fr4 for frog venom

calm pulsar
stone flax
#

i was wondering because only on the standoffless plates does my sb sound off

#

Which happens to be fr4

#

Wondering if its cuz of material or shitty plate fitment

stone flax
#

also yummy

fluid ravine

#

I cant remember if the screws i got came with my plate or the pcb

#

i got some m2 but stills

calm pulsar
calm pulsar
calm pulsar
#

maybe something's off there

stone flax
#

whenever i do no standoffs im forced to use plate foam or else edges are terrible

#

:<

calm pulsar
# fluid ravine I WANT

yeah it sounds nice, but irl fr4 feels kinda nicer, like less physical resonance that I can feel when switching to fr4

#

maybe its the way frog works, but I used softest tadpoles

calm pulsar

fluid ravine
calm pulsar

But ig I personally wouldn't mind if I were to have to screw the plate and pcb anyways so yeah

high sphinx
#

@calm pulsar what case u gonna use for ur second venom ?

calm pulsar
fluid ravine
#

The mount for the frog mini is literally on the plate so ig that's why you can imagine it to resonate and as for gummy mount is just between the plate and pcb but the mount is sitting on the oring

polar girder

Glad I got the force break little kit tho
