#

however their closing mechanism is made where it just 'clicks' open and close as if it's meant to do that

#

vs other switches where you push and have to guess and hope you pushed evenly and strongly enough

#

then half the time you didn't do it right and have to go back and push it again

sacred elm
#

thats good cus im going to lube them, i hate doing it but what can i do

glacial wind
#

with ttc ones you hear and feel the 'click'

harsh dove
sacred elm
#

Did you guys lube only stems+springs? or top and bottom too?

#

poms

harsh dove
#

I loobed everything

tropic urchin
glacial wind
#

just stem and spring is enough, although i did a very quick once over on the bottom housing but without adding more lube

tropic urchin
#

i might run out of 205g

glacial wind
#

i just didn't like their scuffed bottom housing 3 daps of useless lube

harsh dove
#

yeah tf was that

calm pulsar
glacial wind
#

so i'd go in and get rid of that and just spread it evenly lol

sacred elm
#

Ill probably lube stems only and springs, both with 205g0

#

should be enough right

harsh dove
#

thats it

sacred elm
#

Yea I saw it on your stream

glacial wind
#

the funniest part is it's not even spread or anything

calm pulsar
glacial wind
#

it's literally just 3 hardened drops of random lube

sacred elm
#

lol

tropic urchin
#

TTC really might has well have just not tried to lube them

glacial wind
#

and half the time the machine or whatever was low and you only get 1 and a half drops because the other half barely applied

harsh dove
#

Or say like, spread those 3 drops out

sacred elm
#

hey guys, ttc lekker poms have insane factory lube trust, i wont need to lube ☝️ 🤓

tropic urchin
#

get that brush out shafie and LOCK IN

sacred elm
#

Sorry

harsh dove
#

I need that lil thing Thackson had

#

the lube pen

calm pulsar
#

yeah that seems nice

#

might order that too if I get my refund from loobed

harsh dove
sacred elm
#

cam can you ban everybody without poms (not now)

calm pulsar
#

also anyone with springs heavier than 10g

tropic urchin
#

and those that cant spell heavier

#

already have 2 venoms chat >:D

fluid ravine
#

One in FR4 and Alu

fluid ravine

Optimum Venom Build:
Optimum Case (Using silicone standoffs covers and 7 degree feet)
GMK 80082
Venom 60HE 7u
Fr4 plate
Geon Raw HE 60g
TyplusxYikb stabs with Geon Spacer and TX AP LP clip ins

That's the plan

#

Selling my Wooting to a friend with and alu casee for $140

#

gonna put that money towards a Venom 7u PCB and Frog Mini Leggera G Silver case

kind helm
#

i think optimum case with fr4 is gonna be good

fluid ravine
#

everything should add up to $160

fluid ravine
#

gonna be interesting

#

can't wait

but time is not going fortunate goods for me

#

my bum ah is getting impatient

fluid ravine
cold bloom
#

oh TuanV is here

#

you have a lube pen Tuan?

kind helm
fluid ravine
#

used it to lube all my raw alphas

#

felt really efficient

fluid ravine
#

i mean you and dave do have a good sounding HE board with a fr4 plate

#

i mean dave be cooking with all his boards that he sent me and CAM

#

going based off preference with all the ones he built 😭

#

esp his like mode board top mount vs lattice for example

fluid ravine
#

So glad that the novelty was so cheap

polar girder
#

i thought you wanted 2 so one was MX and one was HE lol

fluid ravine
#

should i do a MX PCB in my optimum?

#

and venom in my leggera?

polar girder
#

lol idk why the heck you need 2 HE boards lol

fluid ravine
#

yeah idk

#

good point

#

thanks for reminding me

#

chat what MX pcb should i do

#

I can do a Venom 7u MX and Alu 7u Plate

#

$65 for both

are there any keycaps/mods i can use for the 80he to get a similar profile to the topre switches on my leopold fc660c?

tawdry tree
#

It does seem like it’s by Yiqian but not a Phoenix recolor.

cold bloom
#

one has milky yellows on pp, the other has mx blacks on alu, then I have my venom60 HE/alu setup

#

just takes 2 screws to swap between them

kind helm
#

i think i saw the mx black one on salvun's server, me like that one

Tbh been out of the loop, bought a couple artisans lately and that's it, only thing I know is TTC POM is still FoTM, and people slowly going Venom dogekek

lapis raven
#

what is a venom

marsh saffron
kind helm
#

venom is what wooting 60+ supposed to be

glacial wind
#

right now it's a bit more limited in options for those who want to do non tray mount on 60he, outside of going optimum case and friction fit or doing o ring stuff

#

although honestly i think performance wise tray mount is still best for people actually doing high sensitivity gaming

steel ibex
#

Hey guys, got a Wooting 60he+ recently idk if youve heard yk since i totally havent been yappinga ton but like what mods do you guys have on your keyboards? Currently its just tape modded as I dont want to commit to anything quite just yet but I'm curious what would you guys recommend (also pls ping me I gotta sleep and prob wont see unless you don't ping tysm)

stark osprey
gleaming crane
#

What makes the venom he better than the 60he?

ionic breach
#

its better in that sense

#

its pretty much the same performance wise

glacial wind
#

realistically it's just josh memeing venom stuff because it's what he does

ionic breach
#

it does cut costs on some parts

#

like no warrenty and no lights

gleaming crane
#

Ahh okay

#

It does look very mod friendly

sacred elm
kind helm
#

pros:

  • 8k polling
  • gummy oring mount cut out
  • daughterboard
  • cost around 70 usd

cons:

  • no rgb
  • really limited warranty
sacred elm
#

polling*

kind helm
fluid ravine
#

Eh tru

#

Divinikeys sell them for $65 like geon
Idk any other NA vendors that sells the venom 60he

fluid ravine

Even though its just one more 😂

#

I think folks in modding forget that not everyone is a modder sometimes

#

a lot of things that average people consider aren’t things modders consider as factors

kind helm
#

pepe_sweat maybe because its a modding channel

glacial wind
#

yeah but let’s be real the people asking are usually 9/10 not modders

sacred elm
#

benom

fluid ravine
glacial wind
#

Realistically for average person it’s more like this:
pros:

  • 8k polling and adjustable deadzone
  • gummy oring mount cut out
  • daughterboard
  • can build slightly cheaper if you save on case and keycaps

cons:

  • no rgb
  • really limited/no warranty
  • no dks
  • no analogue controller input
  • self build from parts
ionic breach

55 usd

#

for the tkl

kind helm
#

tiger lite is a steal

ionic breach
#

fully built

kind helm
#

the one on drop is like what 30 dolla off or somethin?

ionic breach
#

ye

glacial wind
#

Drop one is gone

#

It sold through

sacred elm
#

wasnt it without switches

#

and keycaps

glacial wind
#

Tkl one isn’t fully built, you have to buy switches and keycaps for it so it’s more like $150 or so normally assuming you didn’t get the drop deal

ionic breach
#

oh ye

glacial wind
#

Just depends on how cheap you go really. Technically you could go hyper budget and maybe end build at like $120

sacred elm
#

Drakon I heard if you dont have ttc poms by 20 Feb, youre getting banned

#

keep that in mind

ionic breach
#

oh yea

#

i have to ask pantheon keys if they want to stock kom poms

#

kinda dont want to pay shipping

sacred elm
#

how much is shipping if you order from wooting

glacial wind
#

Can be real rough for non eu/non na folks

sacred elm
#

isnt he eu

glacial wind
#

It’s like $25 for me to ship a pack of springs from wooting store because their minimums are optimized for keyboards

#

Nah drak is Singapore

ionic breach
#

like 30 iirc

sacred elm
#

ah

ionic breach
#

how long is the springs btw

#

hopefully 20

sacred elm
#

im ordering lubes from wooting too with poms, it doesnt come with a brush right

sacred elm
#

alright

ionic breach
#

thats heat

sacred elm
#

yea its 21

glacial wind
#

Yeah 21

ionic breach
#

imma buy it

sacred elm
#

and mark said they changed spring weight and its 55gf bottom out😳

ionic breach
#

steal the springs for my raws

#

and chuck them away

sacred elm

we will see soon

#

this week

ionic breach
#

🙏

#

i mean i doubt the length will be listed lmao

sacred elm
#

should be

#

they will feel pretty heavy i think, because of longer spring and 55gf

#

current ttc switches are 48gf

ionic breach
#

idm honestly

#

i still enjoy raws a lot so i can just swap back

sacred elm
#

yea me too

#

i dont really mind spring weight

Does anyone know what's the difference in texture between the double shot and the sub dye keycaps?

In looking for a more smooth and soft feel

The stock keycaps are too rough

I try to follow the advice as much as possible, Im learning it all here pepesalute

quasi hinge
sacred elm
little glen
#

That is an expensive looking board

sacred elm
#

how shocking are the switches

quasi hinge
#

More stable and less wobble, stability also makes em feel a bit more snappy (spring too), poms are deeper sounding too

quasi hinge
#

Not just a board

#

Passion project 🛸🖖

little glen
#

Oh i know

calm pulsar
little glen
#

I just meant the switches on it now

calm pulsar
sacred elm
#

Arc do you think its enough to lube only stem+spring for poms

calm pulsar
#

and bag lube the springs

sacred elm
#

nah ill use 205 for springs too

#

like top and bottom of the spring

calm pulsar
#

well you could include 205 to the top when lubing the stem, and for bottom, there is already lube there

quasi hinge
#

Bottom and top housing

#

Spring and stem

sacred elm
#

Since poms have big ass stem walls, did you guys lube whole thing

calm pulsar
#

you can reduce lubing time bo a lot if you jsut do the stems

sacred elm
#

alright

#

lubing springs with 205 will take some time but i dont have 105 sadly to bag lube them

quasi hinge
#

Deeper one is pom vs raw

first one is pom right

#

😆

cyan lark
#

Yeah

#

I mean I hope so or else I am having hearing problems

sacred elm
#

same

#

yea pom is def first

glacial wind
#

I feel ttc switches got a bad initial rep due to folks not lubing them so they had a bit of chatter in sound tests

#

that and the price so too many people wrote them off without trying them lubed

#

now folks realizing lubed ttc is actually quite smooth

sacred elm
#

neeed

#

them

quasi hinge
quasi hinge
cyan lark
#

I was initially turned off from them because in every A/B sound test that included them they sounded terrible.

stark osprey
#

Did Wooting team say when the prices would be revealed for their in store TTC Poms?

#

And it is just a recolor right? No other changes?

cyan lark
#

Might be due to lack of lubing like you said

glacial wind
#

Yeah I feel unlubed they can sound a bit plasticky with the pitch, especially og ones

glacial wind
#

but with lube they sound quite clean

sacred elm
quasi hinge
cyan lark
#

I'm honestly surprised they'd increase the spring weight. It seems like most folks prefer 45-50g.

stone flax
#

raws better

sacred elm
#

D:

cyan lark
#

🙄

stark osprey
#

Seems like box stem is meta now

quasi hinge
#

Then some who say no diff lol

glacial wind
#

yeah honestly i would have thought more people would have preferred 50g than 55g springs

quasi hinge
glacial wind
#

particularly the crowd shifting to magneto poms

sacred elm
#

maybe springs are the same

#

we have to see

ionic breach
#

nah its increased

#

i believe they said it in the livestream

sacred elm
#

ah, havent watched livestream

ionic breach
#

spring length tho idk

glacial wind
#

it honestly feels a bit like one of those things where they went into it with an idea of what they wanted at wooting, but not necessarily what the target customer might have wanted. Unless their plan is to move to ttc rgb/pom inside wootings stock

#

keeping it at the stock 50g would have hit target customer better imo

sacred elm
#

its only 5g difference

#

doesnt really matter

#

ok not 5

#

7

glacial wind
#

yeah i don't think it's big deal, but i think if you polled those using magneto pom more would lean towards 50g

quasi hinge
#

At least for me

cyan lark
#

It's all relative, so 7g extra from 48g is 15%. I feel like that's enough to notice for some at least.

glacial wind
#

is it actually confirmed 48g bottom out?

#

for og poms that is

sacred elm
glacial wind
#

i could never find the actual number, but i knew it was roughly 50g

cyan lark
#

Just going off what I've seen on listings, nothing straight from TTC

glacial wind
sacred elm
#

yea idk

calm pulsar
#

the smoothness is a huge factor here too, other switches might feel heavier with the same springs

glacial wind
#

that's a problem i found when I was filling out switch info. milktooth has a lot of stuff conflicting with other vendors

cyan lark
#

I don't understand why these switch manufacturers don't at least publish a spec sheet for their switches T_T

quasi hinge
#

Oh interesting

glacial wind
#

like they'll have completely different materials listed for some switches even vs. manu self listed specs

sacred elm
#

yea im not sure why some hide information about springs, like its some private information

#

you literally cant find any info about ttc bottom out force

cyan lark
#

TTC only provides initial pressure 🤷

#

I should build a switch weighing tool 🤔

glacial wind
#

the problem is springs have tolerances too

#

so it makes it annoying to test lol

cyan lark
#

Sure but you can take like several samples and at least provide the data

glacial wind
#

like eyejoker tested some spring stuff and he was getting springs 5-10g less than listed for all the geon springs

cyan lark
#

Oh wow, that's a wider delta than I would have expected

glacial wind
#

which makes me wonder if it's his tool or just how geon tested it

#

but yeah he measured raw he 50g at 40g and 40g at like 30-35g lol

sacred elm
#

😳

quasi hinge
#

Or all switches have that variance?

glacial wind
#

could just be his measuring tool is different too honestly

#

like maybe it's pushing in a fraction more than geon's manu measurement and that's causing difference in end force

#

Mm fresh filter time

ionic breach
#

if all is less i doubt its qc

cyan lark
#

That channel posted last night switching to watches, sno switching to cameras.

i have to restart my youtuber stuff soon so I have to update a lot of my old gear lol

#

don't worry i can mix up with my delivery photos. i have a new helmet coming so i can throw that in with the camera gear photos to really throw people off

#

then people will be confused at why i'm posting a photo of a snowboard helmet and i can go back to camera gear again to make them feel more at home

cyan lark
#

This just sounds like manipulation

glacial wind
#

these are just some of the lessons you learn in forming effective churches

cyan lark
#

I suddenly want to get snowboarding gear 🙏

glacial wind
#

it's never a bad investment. You just divide the cost by 10 years by telling yourself you'll use it for the next 10 years, so everything is cheap

cyan lark
#

Oh I can't snowboard, just getting taken in by the church is all.

#

I was raised skiing and attempting snowboarding at ~20yo felt like trying to write with my left hand, just couldn't grasp it.

Investing in your hobbies, especially the healthy ones, is never a bad decision though. I support your church.

hey i got a question, Im about to buy my first custom Keycaps..i wonder if every keycap is fitting on the 80HE. They are also PTB keycaps so they should work, but im just making sure. so.. please help 😄

cyan lark

The shape of the stem the cap fits onto. It's a X or + shape

See the brown/blue/red stems here

ahh i gotcha thanks!

Almost all keycaps on the market are compatible

cyan lark

Yeah you'll have a hard time finding caps that won't work, layout aside.

upper frost
#

okay thank you for your help guys 🙂

slender pollen
#

ordered my 60he module and case yesterday. Trying to decide on the switches. From reading and watching youtube I have narrowed down to: TTC Poms, Geon RAW, Everglide sticky rice or rice puddings. I prefer a deeper sounding quiet keyboard. I am leaning towards the rice puddings or the Poms. if you guys had to get new switches today which ones would you choose?

if you guys had to get new switches today which ones would you choose
TTC Pom, but this is all highly subjective

cyan lark
#

If you want a quiet switch you could go with Lekkers, they're fairly quiet. Like I with mj would be.

#

I'd listen to a bunch of A/Bs and see what you like, there's plenty of comparison recordings out there

slender pollen
#

thanks guys. i will go with the poms. they seem to be a solid choice

stone flax
#

^~^

cyan lark
#

They aren't quiet, and they're not terribly deep, no.

glacial wind

just in case it turns out cheaper for you to get the wooting ones vs. whatever it's priced at now

so i would not recommend it if u dont want to do all that

Remember mj, providing help and your own opinions exposes yourself and is a risk. Sitting in the corner and waiting for someone else to express their opinion so you can criticize them is the mark of a coward. You can be better if you choose to be.

stone flax
#

huh

#

its not an opinion that recommending ttc poms (switches known to run the higher end of pitch and being loud) for someone who specified wanting a deeper pitch and quieter board is questionable

can i put ttc poms in the venom ? Cause i dont see them in their switch selector

i'll run it as a side hobby thing, just depends how much wooting wants to get involved as far as how far i'll go with it in my off time

so wouldn't be a wootbase type deal. I don't think community sites like that work for high quality content normally, because it ends up being kept up to date by a handful of knowledgable people anyway

sacred elm
#

where poms

cyan lark
#

Wootabase seems like something that should just be brought into the fold

glacial wind
#

i don't think i ever even used wootbase

cyan lark
#

I've looked at it but never used it, don't need someone else's profiles. But it seems like a lot of folks out there use it, or want it to work better.

glacial wind
#

yeah there's a lot of wooting resources that could use a proper update and resource website honestly

cyan lark
#

Given that they already generate profile codes, and those are expanded into a json blob all on wooting's sites, seems like not too many steps to just recreate something like it.

glacial wind
#

really the reason i wanted to make site in first place is their current options for resources suck because it's discord or youtube and both of those are awful for navigating and finding specific things

#

discord just prioritizes latest post and no one reads pins, so it's a mess to find specific resources and youtube is always just a giant page of videos

ionic breach
#

this is my entire school project

glacial wind
#

what project?

cyan lark
#

For what resources?

ionic breach
#

its a module where u make a business

glacial wind
#

you'll find this happens in every category for every hobby niche lol

ionic breach
#

and the idea is that discord/telegram sucks

#

or social media in general

#

to find info on niche hobbies

glacial wind
#

it happened in WoW too, which is why my initial websites popped off. Discord is just an awful interface for hobby resources

tidal frigate
#

It is easier

quasi hinge
#

I have to say these ttc magneto poms are a significant upgrade from the raws

#

Wow on stability

#

No more mushiness

sacred elm

discord just replaced forums and such for the actual chatting

cant wait for the website

yeah people underestimate how it feels to just have no wobble at all

#

it's very nice for gaming

Its like going from a ship to land lol

Smh you’re gonna make me lube them overnight 🤣

Gonna have to change my title to Pomegranate Kommie if I like them

I dont see how they can get better than this

#

Maybe sound for the purists but this switch is an absolute banger

little glen
#

I‘ll try it when it comes down in price

cyan lark
#

I certainly wouldn't mind a quieter option with a similar feel/stability.

little glen
#

Or when i have lots of disposable income again

tropic urchin
#

The only issue with them is how they sound stock, if the lubed Jade sound on them stays the same after lubing then there should be no downsides

cyan lark
#

I'm a bit worried for you on that front. The sound is still pretty forward.

tropic urchin
tropic urchin
#

I just won’t use CF

#

and FR4/alu should be quiet enough to make it not bad

quasi hinge
#

A sin

#

There is zero wobble!

#

They should promote whoever designed these at TTC employee of the year

cyan lark
#

Zero on bottom out, very little on top

#

(slight hyperbole, but close to zero 🙂 )

quasi hinge
#

It destroys anything else ived tried

tropic urchin
#

I anticipate I will be completely out after

cyan lark
#

No way that looks like plenty

tropic urchin
#

I also won’t be using it on springs

#

So should save some

#

It’s just not a super container

cyan lark
#

Yeah you got that super lube en route?

tropic urchin
#

Already here

#

Amazon prime shipping smile

cyan lark
#

It is nice, though living out in the woods that 2-day promise fell through so much that I finally cancelled T_T

lapis raven
#

are you guys talking about ttc poms ?

cyan lark
#

Yes

tropic urchin
#

As long as it’s not sharper than Christ after lubing I probably won’t dislike them

lapis raven
#

are they good ?

cyan lark
#

Yeah

tropic urchin
#

Haven’t tried them yet, but they have negative stem wobble

cyan lark
#

I haven't used an HE switch that feels better. Sound is subjective.

lapis raven
#

has anyone built with them yet ?

cyan lark
#

Yes

lapis raven
#

or can anyone take a video showing the wobble ?

tropic urchin
#

This is your moment Turing smile

tropic urchin
#

It’s actually kinda ridiculous

vast yoke
#

damn. some of you have me thinking i dont use enough lube on my switchs lol

lapis raven
#

interesting

cyan lark
lapis raven
#

50 dollars for 36 switches ?

glacial wind
#

the trick with those is buying less is more expensive

#

so you kind of get forced into buying 70 or 90 lol

#

all the aliexpress vendors have awful prices for the smaller amounts

sacred elm
cyan lark
#

They're still expensive but not that expensive

lapis raven
#

on aliexpress they are 100gpb for 90

cyan lark
#

Even that's not great

quasi hinge
glacial wind
#

sounds about right. Then you have to use coupons to get it to $0.9 to $1 a switch

#

wait and see what wooting prices it at to compare honestly

cyan lark
#

My b

#

But yeah if you're thinking about it no reason not to wait for a week to see what wooting does

quasi hinge
# quasi hinge

And here is the sound comparison for ttc and raw. 1st is ttc on CF plate

lapis raven
#

is wooting collabing with ttc or something ?

sacred elm
#

kinda

glacial wind
#

they made a wooting edition basically

lapis raven
#

ah okay

#

and is there actual news on the release date of them ?

#

or is it all speculation right now

glacial wind
#

yeah

lapis raven
#

ah okay

glacial wind
#

they said this week sometime

lapis raven
#

i guess ill wait

ionic breach
#

hold up

#

this week?

lapis raven
#

probably better shipping times too

sacred elm
#

yes

#

this week

chilly mural
ionic breach
#

oh wait

#

diff timezone

#

i have 1 hr left of this week lmao

lapis raven
#

does the box design also contribute to less wobble ?

sacred elm
#

yea

lapis raven
#

i assume its a called that

#

and i assume regular keycaps will fit as it will just go around the bit where the keycaps slot into

quasi hinge
lapis raven
#

ive been looking at them for a bit but i can wait another few days to see what wooting does

#

ty for the answers !

glacial wind
#

sander said he'll have a soundtest video out when wooting releases them too

sacred elm
#

holy, ttc pom church is growing RAPIDLY

ionic breach
#

imma wait for that and the shipping cost

#

lowkey imma be a bit frugal now

lapis raven

when i get paid im gonna splurge so much lmao

glacial wind

yeah, survive on that $2 chicken rice for a bit

It doesn't seem to matter. I just checked a bunch of my Lekkers that I never opened and they're not consistent either.

All of them seem to travel fine. I don't think the line impacts it.

they went slightly overkill

at least there's a silver lining

but durability for the weight will be an issue long term is only thing

I went on a Nike home gym YouTube binge awhile back

cyan lark
#

Home gym would be neat but there’s something about working out around strangers, I dunno. Grounding.

Plus who needs weights when you have 7 inches of snow to shovel. If I’m not back in an hour call an ambulance and auction off my poms.

sacred elm

send them over

Pull ups, push ups and sit ups

I should try replacing my arcade visit with gym visit. Both not too different since I'm going to be sweatt after anyway

ionic raven
#

Anyone use ceramic keycaps and what springs do you use

harsh dove
#

Especially for the spacebar

ionic raven
#

So if I use jade pro I would have to switch them all 🤔

harsh dove
#

You would need heavier springs likely for the spacebar at least

sacred elm
#

jade pros have long springs and it should be good even for the spacebar

harsh dove
#

^^

ionic raven
#

O

harsh dove
#

yeah rest should be alright since jade pro are about 52g

#

spacebar might be heavy tho

#

just have to test

ionic raven
#

Would these work if it too heavy

harsh dove
#

No

#

Those are MX Springs

#

Which are smaller

#

and magnetic

ionic breach
#

i think there are 22mm springs packs for hall effect in the works that i kinda want

they are on aliexpress

it's basically making your switches less accurate

Okay

And I put on the PCB this

this, it will not interfere

?

Anything that goes between the switch and the PCB might cause accuracy issues on an HE board

please dont

near kestrel

Okay i remove all

In the case, what size should the foam be?

Would this work in my 60he

Ping in reply please

Alright thanks

tawdry tree

If you really want clickies (not sure why you would) you’re better off getting the original (same switch, a tenth of the price) from Ali.

white plaza
sonic crypt
#

what is it lol

#

I am going to get a 80he and I want a keyboard that has clicky switches

#

That is he

tawdry tree
tawdry tree

Compared to other switches, they’re pretty shit.

sonic crypt
tawdry tree
#

Very few people like clickies especially if they’re bad clickies which these are.

tawdry tree
#

Order like 10 from Ali to try them out.

sonic crypt
#

I mean I used a logitech keyboard for about 5 years that had the worst clicky switches

tawdry tree

Have you used a HE board before?

I would not put them in the 80he

that would be a total waste

tawdry tree
#

Ah, then 70.

sonic crypt
tawdry tree
#

You can try em, they’re like $15 for 70

sonic crypt
#

I really just don't want to strip a keyboard down again

tawdry tree

or just stick with linears that are somewhat decent.

Can’t relate

running out of space also tired

#

Imo, Customization is the most interesting part of a keyboard. The only problem is that it always leads to buying a new one (currently at 3).

sonic crypt
#

I guess, I'm not the type to tinker but rather plan. I guess it's some what fun building something for yourself

trail bane
sonic crypt
#

My first keyboard is some old blackwidow keyboard with blue switches

trail bane
sonic crypt
#

I did it once

#

NEVER again

trail bane
sonic crypt
#

I also have the k70

trail bane
#

But its fill’s so smooth with speed silver switches

sonic crypt
#

Yeah

trail bane
# trail bane But its fill’s so smooth with speed silver switches

Of course, I shouldn’t forget that it didn’t have hot-swap, making it a pretty bad keyboard for customization. The stabilizers were awful, and even at the time of purchase, the price was steep. Not great, but still better than a cheap office membrane keyboard for a few dollars.

so I heard there's gonna be a wooting edition of the TTC magneto switches up soon, can anyone quickly run me down the pros and cons of em? if they are the same as the original ttc magnetos I guess we should already have all the information about how they are gonna be?

tawdry tree
#

Just a recolor of the old (V1) KoM POMs afaik.

#

Spring weight is slightly different I believe, to match that of the L60s.

polar girder
#

I thought they were just about to sell TTC POM in Wooting shop lol

tawdry tree
#

Yeah, they’re white with a teal stem.

tropic urchin
#

Should be the same but better RGB (all white) and a heavier spring

#

They do look nice

I‘m not saying i wouldnt have bought the other ones eventually

tawdry tree
#

you’re saying you like them less just because of the color of their housings?

#

really?

little glen
#

But this does make it more appealing and i assume wooting wont have as bad pricing (hopefully COPIUM )

tawdry tree
#

🤣🤣

visual ore
#

I mean once it is in the board and keycaps are on it the switch color doesn't really matter right?

kind helm
#

otherwise fck em :V

tawdry tree
#

that ain’t happening

visual ore
#

Unless somehow they end up with some other changes that make the switch sound different

little glen
#

I would love to try em out on my 80he

visual ore
#

I wouldn't be surprised if these are a limited run

#

And it's more expensive tbh

little glen
#

Tho i would also love to try a different switch plate on my 80he and you know how terrible that is when you‘re on ISO

visual ore
#

Kind of like the new years one

kind helm
visual ore
#

Besides the TTC are wooting adding any other switches to the store?

#

Like the Raws?

tawdry tree
#

Considering the price of Lekker V2s (which are recolored Hejins) and the price of Jades, I don’t think Woot’s TTC price will be competitive at all.

visual ore
#

I would be down to get that tbh if it means I can change up the sound profile

tawdry tree
#

But we’ll see

tawdry tree

I wish they found a way to make the top housing have the diffuser builded into it tbh

Since it is a white housing and all

tawdry tree

it’s ironic af

$1 was already a barrier to entry
