I dont know who built this but I downloaded it from here

That silver CF plate lools nice

[calm pulsar]

silver cf

[quasi hinge]

Mine is on the way

I thought I was done

[tropic urchin]

Oooh arc that was the plate I was telling you about

[calm pulsar]

yeah yeah I remember you mentioned it

thats unique

[quasi hinge]

I want to see it in person

[tawdry tree]

red cf and i’ll bite

[calm pulsar]

you'd break your teeth

bite a softer one like pom or pc

[tawdry tree]

silver cf only for plate mount stabs :(

why do they continue that shit

[calm pulsar]

😮

[quasi hinge]

That would be cool or black and red

[calm pulsar]

yeah even if pcb mounts fit it still kinda sucks around spacebar area tbh

[tawdry tree]

for sure, I loved the red cf on that one car

[tawdry tree]

yeah, doesn’t make sense since the 80HE never needed plate mount support.

for the 60HE(+) I can understand it

but not for the 80HE

[quasi hinge]

I already have the cf plate

Its fantastic

Zero complaints

[tawdry tree]

plate mounts too

[quasi hinge]

Spacebar feels better than ever

[quasi hinge]

Yooooo

POM and CF mix well

[tawdry tree]

at least they do warn people

[quasi hinge]

I dont hear it through my headset but I may hear it on an alu plate

[quasi hinge]

Ping

[tawdry tree]

yeah pom and cf are meant for each other

[quasi hinge]

100%

IMO of course

[tropic urchin]

Where did you find it

[quasi hinge]

@sacred elm posted it, lemme find it

[cyan lark]

[quasi hinge]

Yeah this is it

[tropic urchin]

Shafie is just a wizard ig

I linked you in dms

[tropic urchin]

I need to restart my day brb

[quasi hinge]

I wish this guy posted with lights on

[tropic urchin]

I only see this one but maybe I need to go farther

https://www.aliexpress.us/item/3256808343782952.html

[quasi hinge]

I think they ship only to certain countries, I had to use a forwarder

[tropic urchin]

Is that only compatible with stock 80HE stabs or are my knight V2s SOL

[sacred elm]

fr4 enjoyer

lekker ahh switches

[sacred elm]

yummy

oh i swapped spacebar with jade pro

it was too loud with pom 💀

literally gunshot sound

[tropic urchin]

Maybe you will be the beta tester after all

[cyan lark]

Just open bottom mod your spacebar 🙂

[unkempt storm]

I just took the plunge and ordered the 80HE module with frost case, then the MATHEW's. I'm hoping I can get a sound similar or quieter to the Cherry MX Silents in my old Corsair Strafe Silent k/b

[sacred elm]

these springs are goated

[vapid oracle]

Jade pros >

[tropic urchin]

Jade pros are wobbly bois now

[cyan lark]

The king's reign continues 🧲o

[honest sparrow]

Hi family! Anyone here who owns the jade pros? I can hear the spring pinging on the upstroke. I dont think it was there since the start. Whats your experience? Any potential fix?

[sacred elm]

lube springs

[honest sparrow]

I tried since they were completely dry, but doesnt seem to fix it

Maybe they need more. I used 105, like 6 drops per 15 springs

[tropic urchin]

Mine became kinda scratchy after 2 weeks or so, I’d recommend hand lubing (I did springs and stem and mine sounded nice after)

[fallen pecan]

it's probably the jade upstroke, i was really sensitive to it on the regular jades, it's much less noticeable on the pros. sounds scratchy/chattery

[sacred elm]

get geon pingless springs

[honest sparrow]

The top row is full lubed, ill sample:

[tropic urchin]

Top row sounds nice

[honest sparrow]

The top row is spring and switch lubed, still can hear it a bit on some. I believe the springs are shit

[manic parrot]

Cant wait to build it up

Need to order some things and then hopefully next week i can start

[honest sparrow]

This is ttc koms rgb

[tropic urchin]

I will say, the TTC springs (OG POM) used are some of my favorites

[honest sparrow]

Frikin clean

[tropic urchin]

Sounds great

[honest sparrow]

This switches are goated, and also im an rgb guy (im sorry)

Hahaha

[tropic urchin]

All good

[honest sparrow]

Im regretting the jades a bit to be honest. Thinking about getting more ttcs for the 60+

[tropic urchin]

I’m a 75% foot in the door RGB guy, not as hardcore as the “real gamers use no RGB” like Arc 🫦

[sacred elm]

do you have woot poms

[tropic urchin]

Gotta try to find what you like, all part of the journey

[honest sparrow]

Woot koms rgb, but not poms

[sacred elm]

ah

[honest sparrow]

The jades pros are good overall but they dont sound as clean. I will try and use more 105 on the springs, but the springs dont look good when you open it. They look meh

[cyan lark]

The POMs don't annihilate your RGB for what it's worth, but it will be diminished

[tropic urchin]

I haven’t found any springs really that’s wowed me from a presentation stand point. There aren’t a lot of long spring variants to swap unfortunately (the Aliexpress dual stages look even worse)

[cyan lark]

In case you're still considering them, I wouldn't entirely discount them.

[honest sparrow]

@sacred elm we talked about this the other day, i put the spare woot koms on the wasd and spacebar on the 60 for comparison, the 80 is full kom

[honest sparrow]

Yeah but I have an rgb build, acrylic tofu

[fallen pecan]

Get pink koms

[tropic urchin]

Geon pingless ones might be the only one that’s looked the best, but they’re only fun sized springs

[cyan lark]

Oh hm, fair enough I guess

[honest sparrow]

I mean they look bad compared to the spring on the koms or even on the lekkers, seems to be worse quality, I wasnt talking about aesthetics hehe

[tropic urchin]

Lost in translation

[honest sparrow]

we can do that actually, let me open one lekker and one jade xD

[sacred elm]

hand lubed everything, spent 5 hours 😭

[tropic urchin]

But yeah, the TTC springs so far are my favorites

[honest sparrow]

Nice and bubbly

[sacred elm]

you dont want to hand lube springs with 205g0 ever 😭

[tropic urchin]

Told you, you weren’t going to look forward to lubing those for too long 🤣

[sacred elm]

i had mental breakdown

[calm pulsar]

lol that's why you bag lube the springs and lube the stem only

[honest sparrow]

@tropic urchin left lekkers right jade pro

[sacred elm]

I hand lubed stem walls, springs and bottom housing, all with 205g0

💀

but it was worth

[calm pulsar]

yeah I did the same, but bag lubed the springs, takes so much time☠️

[honest sparrow]

@sacred elm same for me, 80 switches, more than 5h because they are transparent and I cant see shit xD

[sacred elm]

also i can definitely feel that bottom deadzone on 80he vanished with poms

[tropic urchin]

I did arcs speed run and even I was going schizo past half way point

[calm pulsar]

lube 80 poms no major glitches no spray lube speedrun

[sacred elm]

I accidentally let go my W in game, never happened with jade pros 💀

W deadzone

[honest sparrow]

1link nofake

[cyan lark]

360 wet taps

[honest sparrow]

How many drops of 105 per 10 springs would you guys use?

Also I did bottoms with 205

[cyan lark]

2-3 IMO

[honest sparrow]

Then Im having trouble spreading it properly…

[tropic urchin]

I honestly just made the bag look like a slip and slide

[sacred elm]

imagine bag lubing

💀

[cyan lark]

Imagine not

[sacred elm]

😭

let me cope

[honest sparrow]

Just bag lube, no imagine

[austere creek]

50gallon drum lubing

[cyan lark]

https://tenor.com/view/benjammins-oil-up-lather-tiktok-meme-oil-change-gif-12846878189749823269

[calm pulsar]

I used to lube springs with 205, but bag lubing works the same and it's insanely faster

[tropic urchin]

Unironically what I did with my super lube

[honest sparrow]

The alternative to bag is just using a brush?

[austere creek]

or not lubing the spring at all

[sacred elm]

I used olive oil for springs

[honest sparrow]

But they ping u_U

[austere creek]

tell them to shut up

[honest sparrow]

Definitely cheaper than 105 xD

[calm pulsar]

D:

[cyan lark]

The springs don't really hold on to much, so I agree that it seems hard to overdo it on oil

[tropic urchin]

If your fingers aren’t slipping when putting the springs in you didn’t use enough

[safe stag]

Diesel should work too

[fluid ravine]

But what if I use tweezers

[cyan lark]

Tweezers for springs. If your fingers get too oily you may as well fry 'em up like the delicious sausages that they are.

[fluid ravine]

Exactly

[calm pulsar]

imagine using a brush when lubing, just use your fingers

[cyan lark]

Tongue

[calm pulsar]

it's called hand lubing for a reason

[tropic urchin]

Same rules apply but it’s gotta be drippy then

If it’s not glistening then what are you even doing

[fluid ravine]

hawk tuah

💦

[cyan lark]

Mods!

[left depot]

alright back to the modding

[fluid ravine]

Hi Raquel

In AP CS rn, teach not here

Everyone playing Uno

[left depot]

feel free to chat in #💬│general

[fluid ravine]

Scary

All the channels I have

Nothing more nothing less

[calm pulsar]

leaving keyboard modding at this point is like going outside

scary

[fluid ravine]

[left depot]

[fluid ravine]

I SCAREDDD

[fluid ravine]

Indeed

[cyan lark]

I'm so envious. There was no AP CS at my school at the time. Wound up snoozing through the first semester in college.

What lang(s) are you learning?

[fluid ravine]

Last year Java this year python

[cyan lark]

Two useful picks

[boreal cosmos]

Hello, I wanted to buy a Wooting keyboard but it's impossible to find azerty, they only do qwerty?

[kind helm]

I haven't step outside once then

[heady dragon]

They do AZERTY but only for ABS keycaps atm

PBT AZERTY is a coming soon thing

[last oar]

suprised with how well an eyebrow brush could clean pcb and inbetween the switches lol

work smart not hard

like new again almost

[boreal cosmos]

ah ok thanks do you have a link because I don't think I can’t find it haha

[magic walrus]

Jo im planning to put geon raws in there and was asking my self if I should lube the Stabs?

[narrow flax]

This looks wrong?

[stone flax]

Sure

[magic walrus]

Would u just lube them or disassamble and Level them if necessary

[stone flax]

Balance and lube

[magic walrus]

Okay thx

[heady dragon]

https://wooting.io/product/wooting-etched-backlit-abs-keycap-set-black?Language=ISO+French&Color=Black here you go

[cerulean solar]

hello, i need some help to change my wooting switches to something similar to the apex pro mini sound does anyone have switch to recommend to me ?

[stone flax]

💀

[cerulean solar]

xddd i want a tactile sound like something that makes more noise

compare to the lekkers that make the sound a lil creamy

[stone flax]

What is creamy?

[cerulean solar]

smooth

[stone flax]

This is creamy?

[cerulean solar]

yh

[stone flax]

ok put cream cheese on the board

very creamy

[cerulean solar]

........

[stone flax]

u just said yh

[cerulean solar]

nvm

[languid kestrel]

yeah I just have a massive paintbrush I brush my electronics with and it gets rid of all the dust and junk between buttons

[stone flax]

What board

[cerulean solar]

80he

[stone flax]

what part of apex pro mini sound do you like

rather

What do you want your board to sound like ?

[cerulean solar]

i'm new to it so idek what it should be called but somthing tactile or clicky

i dont rll think its the right term

[stone flax]

those words mean theres either a click mechanism in the switch or a tactile bump

i doubt thats what you mean

[cerulean solar]

mhh not sure it was it

[stone flax]

You want the board to sound louder/more emphatic?

[cerulean solar]

wdym by emphatic ?

something fast µ?

light

i mean

[stone flax]

https://letmegooglethat.com/?q=emphatic

[cerulean solar]

funny

ok something louder then

[stone flax]

do you want good stock switches

Or are you willing to lube and/or spring swap/oil springs

[cerulean solar]

nah something good stock

[calm pulsar]

maybe he just needs a closed bottom switch compared to lekkers, is all

[stone flax]

Geon raws he, jade pros, duhuk core he

[stone flax]

ya

[kind helm]

has all 3

[night atlas]

real

i also had slime for car cleaning and that shit works well too

[cerulean solar]

maybe something more linear

[calm pulsar]

they are all linear lol

[night atlas]

arent all HE switches linear

[cerulean solar]

xdddddd

idk about switch

[languid kestrel]

except the Raeds I guess

[cerulean solar]

i just say random word

i want something as close as the omnipoint switches 2.0

[stone flax]

These are all linears

[stone flax]

No

[night atlas]

which ones aren't? just the raeds right

[stone flax]

outemu

[night atlas]

oooo never knew

duhuks coming in this week i'm stoked

saw someone mention duhuks with raw stem, is that just for less stem wobble?

[calm pulsar]

mine should come next week

[night atlas]

lesgooo

what plate are you putting it on?

[calm pulsar]

fr4 in frog mini

[night atlas]

I have my Pp plate comin in

[calm pulsar]

nice

havent tried plastic plates for so long

[night atlas]

i accidentally ordered the fr4 plate w/flexcut

so i just gave it away to my homie with a mad60 looool

that shit is 1:1 in terms of dimensions to the 60he

so all the shit i don't use, he can

[night atlas]

isn't fr4 technically considered a plastic

[calm pulsar]

uhh it should be glass fibers

it's the same as a pcb basically

but it is softest among dense plates

[night atlas]

i see i see

[stone flax]

Same

[stone flax]

no

[night atlas]

whatever that means LOL

prob not the plastics we're used to tho

I can see a case for both sides

[stone flax]

most of fr4 characteristic’s come mostly from being fiberglass and resin composited togetha

it doesnt act like a plastic plate

[calm pulsar]

it is layered basically, so more dense and brittle than plastics

[night atlas]

yee

i see

[stone flax]

Its the disgusting middle child of plates

[night atlas]

lmfao

[calm pulsar]

I think fr4 ones from geon are nicely done, im liking mine

for HE probably like it over alu

[night atlas]

also, how would I know what stabs are long pole if they're not explicitly described as such?

my friend gave me some durock v3 stabs and I'm using them w/my POMs. the stab keys fit all the way with no tilt

so i'm wondering if that means its a long pole stab

[calm pulsar]

it might tilt if you press it really hard, if it's a non long pole stab
but if you're not affected in normal use then it's all good

[night atlas]

Yea, i tried pressing really hard on one side and there's no tilt. even just using the eye test u could see that both sides are fit all the way in, evenly. It was a pleasant surprise for sure lol

[polar girder]

Cosmos show up tomorrow, hopefully

Might actually build this venom this weekend

[cyan lark]

Mine just went on. They are dark.

[polar girder]

lol

I bet

Yeah I’m curious to see if I want to keep them TBH

[cyan lark]

I kinda wanna test taking a dremel w/ a buffing tip to one of them to see what would happen if I force shined them

But yeah these are probably not going to be usable in my 80 where I actually need to see symbols/F-row/nav cluster on occasion.

[polar girder]

Some dude did it on a blank

Not sure how it translates to legends I guess

[cyan lark]

Nice, well it does bring out the color a bit

[polar girder]

Right

[silk hound]

@fluid ravine

[boreal cosmos]

Ah ok, so I have to buy a basic QWERTY keyboard and buy AZERTY keys next to it, if I understand.

[heady dragon]

not exactly, if you click on buy for the 80he, you'll have several options to chose, one of them is just like on this image ; then you chose what you want

you could even just get the board with the correct layout but buy kecaps elsewhere

(even if it's a pain to find azerty keycaps that aren't clone and stuff)

[kind helm]

think i should've brought xl

but all good

[chilly mural]

you can go too small but can't go too big

[kind helm]

thats what i thought

also i thought the one i had was the biggest one

guess i was wrong :3

this is just longer, the width is pretty much if not exactly the same.

[chilly mural]

Maybe you can flip it sideways? Def reduce the overspill just a bit

[little glen]

Show pic

[polar girder]

Always

[little glen]

They also look better when lit from the side, sunlight best

[kind helm]

slowly getting used to it

for some reason it kinda smell like a new basketball

[little glen]

I like new mouse mat smell

I also like new electronic and new card smell

I think i just fucking love chemicals used in consumer products

[kind helm]

100% not weird

[calm pulsar]

wait till you taste them

delicious

[little glen]

rng salvation spotted

[fluid ravine]

[little glen]

you went for barred?

i like the deeper cup variant over bar since i tried it with my first gmk set

but i am also terrible at typing

[calm pulsar]

cosmos looks kinda better on 60%, or maybe in this salvation

[polar girder]

Nice blanks

Whoops!

[calm pulsar]

or maybe this pics just looks like blanks yeah lol

[harsh dove]

Bars for Aesthetics, Dips for Feel

[little glen]

tbf my cosmos dips kinda shine through

so barred would look better

[polar girder]

What’s barred?

[polar girder]

Oh

Yeah

A need

[silk hound]

in love with duhuk

[harsh dove]

You like em?

[night atlas]

need my shit to come asap

[silk hound]

@fluid ravine put me on

[harsh dove]

I put Baldson on

lol

[silk hound]

yeah i like them so far, I might have to spring swap some day but overall very nice

ty for putting us on broski

[harsh dove]

Yeah I spring swapped mine

Stock springs too light for me

[cyan lark]

I need barred everywhere for function

[little glen]

i have some 60g pingless geon springs sitting around, gonna use those on the duhuks once they arrive 😎

[polar girder]

100%

[harsh dove]

Do it

[polar girder]

My keyboard is underneath my monitor and I need F to place fingers for WASD

[fluid ravine]

👀

[little glen]

i 100% will, just unsure if i also want to lube all the switches

so many switches for my 80he

[harsh dove]

Nah don't lube em

Leave the stock lube

just do the springs

[little glen]

just do top and bottom with 205?

[harsh dove]

Yea I'd just do 205 on ends of springs or bag lube

[fluid ravine]

I just told pochi to grab a brush and spread the lube on the stem and that's it

And mainly do smth with the springs

[harsh dove]

yeah or spread the lube more if you want

but I wouldn't really add more

[fluid ravine]

Yeah don't add

[little glen]

i think i will hold off on bag lube cause idk if i have the correct stuff for it haha

[harsh dove]

Ah okay then yeah just do the ends of springs with 205

[fluid ravine]

Each drop of lube on each parts of the switch is the exact amount you would need on your brush to apply in the switch, you just need to spread em.

You'll know cus it leaves a nice even shiny coat

No overlubing white bits

[calm pulsar]

can someone take out jade pro spring out of my franken so I can put them in duhfuks, im too lazy

[fluid ravine]

ME

[calm pulsar]

I have a feeling you will yoink em

[polar girder]

He's moving on with life smh

[polar girder]

[harsh dove]

He's leaving us

[kind helm]

i think its worth but that is just me :3 like 10 dolla for a fun experiment trying out new typing experience is worth to me.

but of course if you cant feel it then it may feel like a scam

[polar girder]

I still might do it

[tawdry tree]

couldn’t be me (🥴)

[polar girder]

And put in alu for Wooting to sell

Feel like Raw switch sell better than BK for Wooting sale

[kind helm]

did you buy 10 of many switches or like 70+ of them

because i remember you do have a whole list of he switches hehe

[polar girder]

Wooting 60HE+ with alu plate, raw in plastic stock case

Lolz

[tawdry tree]

5 of almost everything

[kind helm]

ahhh cool cool cool

[tawdry tree]

70+ would not be feasible lmao

already spent more on switches than I did on boards

[fluid ravine]

Ordered

[tawdry tree]

💀

[fluid ravine]

[calm pulsar]

I have 70x8 different HE switches😭

[tawdry tree]

[fluid ravine]

My xray tray is noice

[marsh saffron]

Id say easily imo

[polar girder]

Oh with SW knights stabs and BK switches and extra keycaps lol

[calm pulsar]

seems fine considering custom switches and plate

[fluid ravine]

Whatchua selling again?

[polar girder]

#🔧│keyboard_modding message

Soonish

[fluid ravine]

How much alu plate

[marsh saffron]

Id imagine you can get more than 160 for that

[polar girder]

I can’t sell plate I need plate to sell Wooting PCB lol

[tawdry tree]

depends on market

[marsh saffron]

60hes still resell quite well no?

[tawdry tree]

I sold mine for a bit over 200

[marsh saffron]

With raws and alu plate i could at least see 180 as a fair price

At least 180

[fluid ravine]

Sold mine for 140

[tawdry tree]

in eu yeah, idk for na tho

[kind helm]

ebay or just a friend?

[fluid ravine]

Friend

[kind helm]

wait i think is friend you mentioned it

yeee

[marsh saffron]

They sell fairly high still in canada, not sure for us market tho

[fluid ravine]

Gave my 80082 for free as well

[kind helm]

W friend

[fluid ravine]

Cus another friend told me to

[tropic urchin]

Can I get free stuff too

[calm pulsar]

bruh I stil have my stock og 60he, not sure if I want to, might sell the module instead and keep this with all the original parts

[tawdry tree]

you should not give your boobs away for free man

[fluid ravine]

Yeah it was a fully modded prebuilt

[kind helm]

literally supporting the poor, personally wooting not worth 140 even though most likely you can sell it for that price

[marsh saffron]

Ive already gaslit all my friends into buying wootings (aside from a steel series shill who copes giga hard)

[tropic urchin]

Natural born salesman

[tawdry tree]

steelseries shill in 2025

💀

[tropic urchin]

Our great WLmouse brand ambassador

[marsh saffron]

I mean shit I've sold at least 10 people here on the beastx too

I should sell cars fr

[fluid ravine]

I sold my wooting, PC plate, raws, tofu v1 clone, gummy o'ring, tx ap plate mounts, gmk 80082 (free), with poly fill and the wood thing I cutted for the cavity of the case

[harsh dove]

I have buddies who wouldn't convert to wooting so I stopped being friends with them

[tawdry tree]

lmfao

[kind helm]

ahh so not just the pcb. the whole package

[tawdry tree]

unfriended cause of their keyboard choice

[kind helm]

fair

[tawdry tree]

sucks2suck

[marsh saffron]

I think for them it's sort of a sunk cost fallacy

[fluid ravine]

Yup

[marsh saffron]

They spent the same amount of money for a ss board as a 60he and just refused to listen to the benefits

[tropic urchin]

I swear to god the mouse I received I was expecting some kind of BS clicks, but was some of the best QC of any mouse I’ve received

[marsh saffron]

Wlmouse cooooooooks

[tropic urchin]

Now I kinda wish I tried the sword x

[tawdry tree]

could be a bit of buyer’s remorse

[tropic urchin]

Part of me really wants to try the strider but I can’t have more mice

[marsh saffron]

If i liked ergos I'd try it

[tropic urchin]

Now idk if I can use ergo

[calm pulsar]

thankfully inside of this community we don't have any arguments about switch or layout choice

[tropic urchin]

I’m claw gripping the world

[harsh dove]

Yeah everyone knows which switch and layout is best

[marsh saffron]

Yeah but at the same time it might just be them egoing me because they used to be the "tech guy" of their group

[kind helm]

everyone coping 60 or sin with fugly 80 layout

[marsh saffron]

I never liked ergos

Ive always had way too aggressive of grip styles for ergo

[tropic urchin]

Palm grip main 😭😭😭

[marsh saffron]

Palm is so icky

[chilly mural]

I want numpad tho

[marsh saffron]

Disregarding the extra mouse control you throw away using palm, it just doesn't feel good

But that also might be due to my fingers being bad

[fluid ravine]

I want pulsar crazy light ngl

[harsh dove]

Exactly bro

That's why I got rid of them

[fluid ravine]

Mhm I heard

[fluid ravine]

Yuur

[kind helm]

what what if i dont spend time with anyone

[fluid ravine]

I have lamzu Atlantis og v2 pro rn

[chilly mural]

Does that mean there's a chance you become Razer user instead???

[harsh dove]

I have Razer mouse

[fluid ravine]

$120

[tropic urchin]

R*zer

[marsh saffron]

At least it's not Logitech

[fluid ravine]

Fuck logitech

[tropic urchin]

True

[fluid ravine]

Bottom of the barrel now

[tropic urchin]

It would be lgitech

[fluid ravine]

They threw

[tropic urchin]

What

[marsh saffron]

Logitech released the gpx1 and have been behind ever since

[kind helm]

i was gonna the one mouse i am actually interested in trying again is gpro

[tropic urchin]

Omfg

[kind helm]

i enjoyed my old one

[harsh dove]

Yeah my GPX2 sucks

[tropic urchin]

I hate you discord

[marsh saffron]

G pro shape is just so bleh

[fluid ravine]

[marsh saffron]

Potato mouse

[fluid ravine]

POTATO

🥔

[tropic urchin]

Won’t even let me censor funny word like I want

[harsh dove]

my GPX 2 has ghost scrolls and I even cleaned it

[fluid ravine]

Smh

[marsh saffron]

Its just so uncomfortable for literally every grip style 😭

[harsh dove]

Trash mouse

[kind helm]

yee the click and the scroll both kinda dog

[fluid ravine]

Kinda? You mean is

[marsh saffron]

You'd think Logitech could at least get the scroll wheel right

[kind helm]

sry

xD

[fluid ravine]

[chilly mural]

their mouse is at least nice

[marsh saffron]

I wouldn't quite say nice

If it was 50$ cheaper, maybe yeah

[chilly mural]

*Nice if on sale

[marsh saffron]

In no world should a gpx2 cost more than a lamzu

[chilly mural]

Still waiting for the tiger lite to arrive. My sister still using somewhat broken g915

[marsh saffron]

Lamzu clears in all aspects for 30$ less 😭

Gpx2 costs the same as beastx what the fuck is Logitech smoking

[polar girder]

Razer good

[stone flax]

Ulx good

[kind helm]

OP1 8K

[calm pulsar]

imagine aiming with your mouse in 2025

[fluid ravine]

Was in ELA btw, we were talking about hooks for an essay. When my teacher said "The hook" it instantly got my attention

[stone flax]

egg is kinda ass

[kind helm]

i have baby boy hands

[stone flax]

hmmm

[marsh saffron]

Fr just abuse aim assist like a real man

[kind helm]

the hook?! duhfuk!

[polar girder]

GOATED WITH THE SAUCE

[kind helm]

light weight, good sensor, good buttons, good shape, 60 something dolla

what more do i need or want

[marsh saffron]

Magnesium mouse makes my brain tickle

[tropic urchin]

Magnesium omron clicks is pornography for the ears

[marsh saffron]

Pink dot blue shell supremacy 💔

(Haven't tried opticals yet)

[uneven cradle]

[frigid nova]

do we change switches on the 80HE the same way as the 60HE>

[marsh saffron]

Yes

[frigid nova]

ty

[magic walrus]

In a 60 he with tofu 60 redux and geon raws (pc plate obvious) should i be yousing poron or silikone plate dampening?

[marsh saffron]

Up to you

Personally prefer the foam

[magic walrus]

Ye right now i have foam and lekker v2s but im Not sure if i should switch with the new switches

[marsh saffron]

Try both out and see what you prefer

I preferred silicone with my lekkers but after I went to jades I stuck with foam

[frigid nova]

no front screws right

[marsh saffron]

Wdym?

Like you don't have to take any screws out?

[frigid nova]

in the video for the 60HE, there were screws in the front to take out

behind the keycaps

i dont see any screws in front

i see some in the back

[marsh saffron]

Oh probably not, because it's gasket mount

[frigid nova]

feels so hard to take apart teh case ol

[marsh saffron]

Make sure to watch the 80he disassembly vid if you haven't already

[frigid nova]

tyty

[tropic urchin]

I’m refunding now 💀

[marsh saffron]

Haven't tried the opticals to compare yet

But pdbs will forever be my goat for mech switches

[cyan lark]

I’m glad I have a board I don’t need to ever read because seriously, those cosmos are illegible

Like they really may as well be blanks

Holding out hope for that cosmos like successor to be more readable while still being spacey/sparkly

[thorn zealot]

U can also not use any if u want

[sweet oak]

Cosmos nova edition with purple aurora legends

Or blue

[cyan lark]

Selena I think it was called?

[polar girder]

Fk

[polar girder]

Yeah

[harsh dove]

If its anything like Cosmos Renders, these colors not gonna pop like that

[polar girder]

Most tempting for me NGL

[harsh dove]

I imagine they'll look more black than purple almost

Renders tend to make the colors pop more than they do

[sweet oak]

So if i was rendered, id pop?

Like a balloon

[harsh dove]

Yeah

[sweet oak]

Sign me up

[sour flower]

this layout makes me feel uncomfortable

[harsh dove]

Cosmos don't pop like this

Like I said before, these colors are visible but not bright and shiny like these photos

they are very subtle

[polar girder]

I just wish the legends were less subtle lol

Like I want legible black on black. Is that too much to ask???

[harsh dove]

Yeah kinda lol

[thorn zealot]

Is bob not just blanks

[harsh dove]

Has to be two different shades of black

for it to actually be legible

I mean can barely read it lol

[sweet oak]

Outlined superblack

[calm pulsar]

thing is, reality is different from renders

😭

[tropic urchin]

Yes, add that to wanting thock on the Mt Rushmore of unrealistic expectations

[placid niche]

How are Geon RAWs wobble in comparison with stock Lekker v2s?

The stock lekker v2s are so wobbly for me it kinda ruins the experience with typing and such

[thorn zealot]

Better

[placid niche]

the best for stem wobble are still the ttcs right

i just dont like how they sound lol

[thorn zealot]

Those and duhuks

Are better than raws

But raws still pretty good

Esp for their price

[fluid ravine]

ooo how much is this one

[polar girder]

Duhuk are better than raw for wobble?

[kind helm]

yes

[tropic urchin]

TBD

[thorn zealot]

Yes

[fluid ravine]

oof

[polar girder]

Isn’t Duhuk just a raw with thingy on the stem and diff material bottom?

[kind helm]

duhuk's wobble is on the same level of jade pro if not better

[polar girder]

Gotcha. So still below TTC POM.

Understood.

[thorn zealot]

Ppl say duhuks wobble is on par with poms

[polar girder]

[kind helm]

yes because pom has box stem

[fluid ravine]

i remember the reviewer that had duhuks before us but they said that the duhuks wobble is better than the jade pros

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[polar girder]

lol I’m sure they do

Standard Duhuk cope

[kind helm]

personally feel that way too, but you know :3 i dont wanna be too certain

[fluid ravine]

pretty sure it's POM then Duhuk

[fluid ravine]

i feel ya

[thorn zealot]

Are u sure this isn’t Pom cope

[placid niche]

Whats the name of the duhuk switches? i cant find it

[thorn zealot]

Didn’t cam say they on par

[fluid ravine]

Duhuk Core HE

[fluid ravine]

His experience

so his opinions or thoughts of them

not bias shi or anything like that

[kind helm]

mr cam actually said that or something along that line when he tried duhuk on stream

[fluid ravine]

it's what he thinks on hand

He did noticed that the box stem was like was like making a rattle noise when testing the bottom out wobble

[thorn zealot]

Maybe we wait for some others to receive their duhuks

Who also have poms

[fluid ravine]

but i think since like the poms are like perfectly tight (who would even want that) the box just hits the top housing a bit

making that noise

i would think the same if duhuk had box stems

[kind helm]

pom still wobbles, close to none != none :3

[fluid ravine]

yeah

haha i like what you did there

!=

[polar girder]

Yeah they do

[kind helm]

hehe

[fluid ravine]

yeah again, POM, Duhuk, they still wobble a bit, it's good that they do. If you get absolute ZERO wobble out of a switch then you're in a forever struggle of typing with friction

but they're def top two switches with really tight stem wobble

can't deny

[polar girder]

Well I could. But I won’t.

[fluid ravine]

[ripe tulip]

yo guys i bought raeds he

[polar girder]

GG

[fluid ravine]

[polar girder]

https://novelkeys.com/products/gmk-cyl-winkler-keycaps

[calm pulsar]

super cool set

[kind helm]

140 with some accent, not horrible

[harsh dove]

Yeah I'd basically just say Duhuks are one of the most stable non-box stems currently and TTC is one of the most stable box-stems currently

[harsh dove]

Aligner noticed this too he said

Sno said it's because of it being a box stem

and I'd say they feel more stable than Jade Pros personally

I felt like RAWs were tighter than Jade Pros and I find Duhuks better than both

[stone flax]

Duhuks on top

Wobbly ttc

rattle rattle

[sweet oak]

i see the duhuk church is in full swing

[harsh dove]

There's a Raeds Church too but they're quiet

[sweet oak]

well yeah id hope so

[prime orbit]

is the spacebar coming off normal?

only wwhen pressing in on the left side

[sweet oak]

yeah that makes sense

[prime orbit]

bro this is so annoying

keep coming off

[harsh dove]

Are you using short travel switches with standard pole stabilizers?

Might be why, esp if the spacebar has kinda loose stem tolerance

Can buy Geon Stem Spacers or get Long Pole Stabilizers

[prime orbit]

Ttc Pom with reg stabs

[harsh dove]

Ah then yeah, might be what I said

Geon Spacers are like $3

or you can get long pole stabs

[calm pulsar]

wouldn't spacers raise the keycap even more?

[prime orbit]

….

[harsh dove]

or if you have small rubber o-rings you can fit those over the stems of the stabilizers

[prime orbit]

Why did no way say that when talking about ttc Pom 😭

[harsh dove]

Nah it's aligning it with the switch

[harsh dove]

Cause it's not always required

it only happens with loose stem tolerances on the spacebar

[calm pulsar]

ngl seems like shit keycap above all but it can likely be fixed with long poles or spacers

[harsh dove]

Yeah I've honestly not had it happen to me yet

[prime orbit]

shit??

[harsh dove]

I've only ever bought one set of long pole stabs just in case

all my stabs are standard pole

[prime orbit]

its pbtfans man

\never had an issue before either

so idk

[harsh dove]

Yeah it's not common

but can happen

[prime orbit]

well

new stabs it ids

which one

do u recommend

[harsh dove]

I used to say it never happens with GMK but then someone showed me it happening with GMK so it really just depends on the tolerance of the keycap stem and that can vary sometimes

[harsh dove]

Any long pole stabilizers will do tbh

[stone flax]

pbtfans and shit tolerances arent mutually exclusive at all

get spacers or new cap or long pole stab stems

[calm pulsar]

gmk better

gmk on top

[stone flax]

True

[leaden fossil]

It happened to me on the 60he+ module with a set of 8008 bloo but stem spacers fixed the problem

[prime orbit]

i wouldve if they had black blanks

[prime orbit]

these were the best i found

[stone flax]

gmk bob

aka

Cosmos

;3

[prime orbit]

purple no?

[harsh dove]

Do you have plate mount or PCB mount

[calm pulsar]

irl they turned out to be pretty close to blanks

[prime orbit]

uh

idk lmao

module?

pom plate

friction fit

[harsh dove]

If you got the module you can use pcb mount

[calm pulsar]

what size shoes

[harsh dove]

aka screw-ins or clip-ins

[prime orbit]

screw in most stability ill do that

[tropic urchin]

17s

[prime orbit]

just tell me which one to get lmao

i dont like choices

[stone flax]

geon stem spacer

[stone flax]

I agree

[stone flax]

yeah do this

[calm pulsar]

da hail

[harsh dove]

Yeah the Stem spacer is the cheaper option

https://divinikey.com/products/geon-stem-spacer

[tropic urchin]

I only wear size 15s, but 17s made it more interesting

[prime orbit]

i mean if im doint that might as well do new stabs lol

[stone flax]

uhh why

[harsh dove]

https://mechanicalkeyboards.com/products/swagkeys-knight-v2-stabilizers

[calm pulsar]

if this chart is correct mine would be 7s

[stone flax]

Knight v3 better

[harsh dove]

bro who cares

[prime orbit]

not in stock

[harsh dove]

I use v1s

and they sound great

[calm pulsar]

v4s on top

[harsh dove]

there could be v42069 and I still wouldnt care

miss me with that

[tropic urchin]

atleast they stock your size 😭

i remember like a decade ago before i bought my shit online they would have like 1 size 15s if i was lucky

I have to wear max support shoes too so i cant cop a pair of yeezys or some shit either

[harsh dove]

Yeah that's also why I sent v2 cause v3 long pole not in stock

I also didn't look that hard though

[calm pulsar]

looking at ye, yeezys might be outlawed or something

[harsh dove]

How tall are you wearing 17s bro

[tropic urchin]

I wear 15s but im 6'4

I embellished it for comedic effect

[prime orbit]

its preorder

lol

[harsh dove]

I'm 6'2" - 6'3" and wear 12s

[fluid ravine]

Holy fuck-

[harsh dove]

says in stock now for me

16 left

[calm pulsar]

im like a gnome compared to yall

[fluid ravine]

One of my teamates are is as tall as you and he where's a size 9

[harsh dove]

I have some 13s and some 11 1/2s

but mainly 12s

[fluid ravine]

I'm wearing 9.5-10 6ft

[harsh dove]

You still growing

till like 25

lol

[fluid ravine]

Hopefully

I feel like I haven't been growing LOL

[prime orbit]

v3

[harsh dove]

Might have a growth spurt later

[harsh dove]

Oh

yeah v3 harder to get

[fluid ravine]

Can a growth spurt happen multiple times?

[prime orbit]

clear vs balck matter?

[harsh dove]

Yeah

[harsh dove]

Nah

preference

[prime orbit]

does light shine better thru clear?

[harsh dove]

No lights near stabs but sure

[little glen]

i think i need to retune my spacebar

[fluid ravine]

Oh shit huge

I thought it was a one time thing and I thought I already had it

[harsh dove]

Nah can have multiple

[fluid ravine]

6'5 🙏

Jk I wanna be as tall as you

wait

it was long pole i needed right

??

[harsh dove]

Yeah

[prime orbit]

ok good

[glacial wind]

It’s was measured by aligner already

He posted the flux readouts before

[harsh dove]

#🔧│keyboard_modding message

[glacial wind]

Tldr is poms/rgb are still 1/3 to 1/2 the flux change of jade pro/duhuk level switches since you’re never going to match non box stem wobble to box stem level wobble. Duhuk was 0.013 flux change, ttc kom is 0.007, ttc pom/rgb 0.005

Actually less than half since aligners one was kom which is even higher flux than Pom/rgb

[harsh dove]

Yeah it's not really fair to compare them 1:1 cause it's box stem vs non box stem

[harsh dove]

and yeah was gonna say that

POM Maxxing

[fluid ravine]

[harsh dove]

Yeah I'd imagine POM/RGB are around 0.004-5mm or lower

oh really?

[tropic urchin]

It’s all fun and games until they don’t have your size

[harsh dove]

fr most common size be like 9-10

also hard to find good pants that fit you right
