Gotta clean it 😭

tropic urchin
marsh saffron
#

Just water and a cloth is fine?

agile grove
#

just grab a microfiber and wet it a bit

heady dragon
#

Using tap water on my oled, works okay with a bit more effort to avoid stains

#

Should probably get some distilled water some day

#

Though I guess it depends on the country

#

And even in specific areas

#

Don't use tap water it it's any colour

Guys, is it possible to make the ttc wooting poms sound like (unused) lekker v2 switches? Feeling wise, the ttc and raw feel almost identical to me (no idea how theyre almost able to match the stability from the ttcs, really surprised me), but for sound, its clearly lekker v2>>>>raw>>ttc for me

#

(in 80he zinc case)

polar girder
#

Smash the bottom out?

#

Lekkers are open bottom so they’re fairly different and not much to
Do
About it

heady dragon
#

Which are the open bottom switch with the less wobble ? thonk

tiny elk
#

is it a worth while mod to get the pc plate?

#

as in is it a massive difference from the stock plate when in a tofu redux with gateron jades

polar girder
tiny elk
#

what is it thats different tho?

polar girder
#

It’s less stiff, feelwise

#

And less Pingy (non-metal) and different sound

tiny elk
#

fuck it

#

ima get one lol

#
  • it's black so it's better
#

:p

Thanks, I might look into it, I wonder is the 'rattly' sound comes from the wobble, that said I don't hear it through my headphones

#

hey so I have the stock switches on my 60he anyone can recommend any better switches possibly?

marsh saffron

#

ttc need manual lube and duhuk may need a spring swap if you want a heavier weight

#

as for creamy and thocky

#

those are words that mean nothing but you wont get a thocky HE switch

marsh saffron

#

Its also ips not oled so it's probably fine?

plain tusk
#

but I was thinking Jade pros

#

i have made some sound tests for raw and duhuk but please keep in mind that those are only to be compared to each other because they are on a heavily modded board

I can testify streaks can be a pain to remove

jade pro also good probably

#

but yeah listen to the sound tests and see which one you like more

where you get poly foam from

@kind helm I’m getting reddit ads for asssassins creed shadows “everything you need to know” this shit is so cooked

harsh dove
little glen
#

yes

harsh dove
#

Thought so

#

I can hear it

little glen
#

as mentioned in the thread and in the name of the audio file

harsh dove
#

I don’t read

calm pulsar
#

why read when you can hear every single applied mod in the sound test

harsh dove
#

Nah tbh I read the audio file but it was cut off for me and just said “3”

#

I assume 3 layer tape mod

#

I definitely didn’t read the thread though

#

So congratulations or sorry that happened to you

How does one lube stabs

Bro this guy is so hard to follow

#

He just says

#

Live here

#

Lube

#

And doesn’t even show where

harsh dove
#

What

prime orbit
#

I might just be dumb

#

But I have no clue where to lube rn

#

Just all over?

#

Inside

calm pulsar
#

I mean any spot where the parts interact you should lube

harsh dove
#

He explains it

#

And shows it

prime orbit
#

The wife

#

Wire

#

He says not to use the lube

#

And to use sum else

#

That I don’t have

#

Do I lube it with what I have

#

Or no

kind helm
#

duh ( i am NOT responsible for any fuck up that may occur)

calm pulsar
#

I remember someone almost bought 65% gmk keycap set because of medogekek

#

which doesnt have all caps needed on 60he

uneven cradle
prime orbit
#

I already did the wrong wire

#

Bro

#

I don’t like this 😭

polar girder
#

Wire go in stabilizer. Wire metal. Stabilizer plastic. Lubricate where metal touches plastic.

#

And where plastic touches plastic.

#

Usually you use grease for where metal touches plastic. And lube for plastic on plastic.

#

But if all you have is lube just use a decent bit and don’t add too much and you’ll probably be fine.

#

Lubrication is to decrease friction.

steep raft
#

So apparently i am not having luck with the way the Lekker V2's feel in the original 60HE. Getting this nasty feeling flex/creak on bottom out. Doesn't happen with V1's. Any ideas? I'm thinking it's the steel plate that might be ruining the V2's for me.

ocean anchor
#

is there a place i can get the black keycaps of same style as the white ones but only the ones for the edges of keyboard

thorn zealot
#

Why

ocean anchor
#

so i don’t have to buy a whole black set aswell just for the outside keys if i don’t need to

night atlas
#

depends on the keycap set, but i know some sell accent or alphabet keys separately, unsure if that'd meet your goals though.

ocean anchor
#

guess i’m buying 2 sets

little glen
#

some pbtfans have black/white accents

#

same with some gmk sets

#

but they will not be outside vs inside completely

Really hope I did this right 😭

Oh you fixed it?

And not coming off

ocean anchor
#

@little glen lowk might just by 2 sets or get ceramic keycaps for the other keys

little glen
#

if you dont want shine on your keycaps

marsh saffron
#

Ceramics mixed with non ceramics would stick out like a sore thumb

little glen
#

why are you getting ceramics

#

ceramics have the most shine

marsh saffron
prime orbit
# harsh dove Nice

Switches next SwitchyPog I gotta wait 6 months at least to have confidence for that

little glen
#

tbf some of the new cerakeys look great

#

but like

#

those are the ones that shine the most

#

by design

marsh saffron
#

Like the regular ones

ocean anchor
#

if it’s a little different it might as well be completely different

little glen
#

if you buy caps from one manu they will most likely have matching fonts

marsh saffron
#

They would stick out so much

ocean anchor
#

the sun emoji on kbd fans pmo i don’t wanna buy more from them

harsh dove
#

I've gotten it down to about 2 hours for a 90x set

ocean anchor
#

is it easy to mess up

harsh dove
#

I mean only way you mess up is overlubing

#

then you have to clean them and re lube

#

Less is more

#

almost always

ocean anchor
#

why not use water

harsh dove
#

to clean them?

#

You can

ocean anchor
#

no as lube

G'day, got my first Wooting 2HE with UK ISO(extra key near left shift), just putting together now. got 3 switches(light green installed, Jade mechanical and 12 l45 yellow) and wondering if I should put the l45 lekker where the wasd is and throw some mechanical on the tenkeypad?

and compare to raws

It'll actually be my first time trying PP

I'll make Hopper proud

Replace it with jst udb

well venom db already is the same as unified, but it doesnt fit the hole

but I will try this thingie, if it fits in the case I will be able to connect

hi, i'm new to the world of mechanical keyboards, I recently bought a wooting 80he, and wanted a case that is kind of this color: #1ecfdf do you have any suggestion?

little glen
#

you want a light blue case

little glen
#

just say that next time pls

stone flax
#

Fire color bro

#

Can i also get the hex code

dense cave
#

that's the hex code

little glen
#

i know what a hex code is

#

but its not very helpful

kind helm
little glen
#

and its more work for the person trying to help you

dense cave
little glen
#

anyway, the only after market cases currently available for the 80he are gt-80 and bone80

#

both of which do not seem to have a color like the one you want

#

so final options available for you would be to get one custom painted/cerakoted

tropic urchin
#

Teal 80HE case would be kinda cool

little glen
#

at which point you can decide if you want to get one of those 2 painted or a wooting 80he raw case

kind helm

#

oh actually those do look kinda close

Thinking about just replacing the ESC and Enter key with wooden caps, just to make the kb stand out a bit

#

gateron's pcb also web tool to change settings

#

but the switches supported are all gateron stuff

#

it lets you set per key switch profile so thats kinda interesting? duh

#

Oh nice, that’s what Simon wanted to do with the per key stuff

torn rapids
#

would anyone care to explain what makes the ttc pom the best on the market atm ?SwitchyHeart

fluid ravine

#

it comes down to preference and what you want from the switch

torn rapids

gotcha

#

in terms of stability theyre better than the jade pros?

yeah in terms of stability they're pretty much the best switch out there

#

i just finished

#

time to break it in

#

ngl i expected the acrylic leggera to be cheaper by $10 from the alu

fluid ravine
fluid ravine
calm pulsar
#

ic, well maybe it's due to limited nature it's a bit more expensive

kind helm
#

i want to say i am not expecting anything different but thats discouraging dogekek

calm pulsar
#

usually switches get better over time if they are tight initially

#

after breaking in they just become smoother without becoming worse

kind helm
calm pulsar
#

ah lol

#

I also said it as if it is a consipacy theorysmile

kind helm
#

he said he lubed the top and the stem cleaned the bottom, but i feel like as you press down the key the lube would be brough down and eventually even out

fluid ravine
#

i might do some frakenswitching who knows

kind helm
calm pulsar
# fluid ravine WE TRUST BOIS

you gotta break em in so hard to the point that dampening thingie melts into the stem and the top out becomes goodsmile

#

jk that's just my opinion

kind helm
#

i was wondering though if lubing the leg would help

#

so the contact between the leg and the top housing would be a bit less scratchy (hopefully)

fluid ravine
#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

#

i lubed the leg

#

i still get a lil bit scratch

#

i can't feel it

#

but i can slightly hear it

calm pulsar
#

finally a switch with the noble MX scratch

fluid ravine
#

lol

kind helm
kind helm
#

whatever tf you are trying to do smile

#

like whats the idea of this new method

fluid ravine
#

honestly i was aiming for that smoother feel which worked

#

but also wanting that stock sharpness volume on the bottom out

#

but didnt work LOL

#

geon pingless springs doing good so far

kind helm
#

i think the sharp bottom out would come back as you break in

fluid ravine
#

hopefully

#

if not then

#

WELL TIME TO BUY ANOTHER SET OF DUHUKS

kind helm
#

but the top scratch idk, best i can think of is lubing the leg

#

which thankfully helps :3

#

according to you

fluid ravine
kind helm
#

ye

fluid ravine
kind helm
#

i think you maybe can look at how people lube haimu heartbeat

fluid ravine
#

mines dont feel scratchy

kind helm
#

which has a leg at the bottom

#

its like the same idea from what i understand but intended to mute the bottom out

kind helm
fluid ravine

#

Balder what is bro trying to solve then

fluid ravine
#

and that funky ass top out that it makes that pochizo pointed out

kind helm
#

smile start playing monkeytype whole night

fluid ravine
#

ever since she pointed it out im noticing it much more

calm pulsar
#

to me the top out sounded like a HE switch with bad tolerances

#

even though its not what duhuks are

kind helm
#

hehe

#

good to know you can make it better with some lube there though, maybe i do that at some point later on

#

@fluid ravine do you think this happens sometimes?

#

the top is normal situation, the bottom one is what i fear can happen

#

assuming the line is the leg.

noble mason
#

are the poms even worth buying or i should just wait for some really really good switches

calm pulsar
tawdry tree

#

sometimes i feel some weird bump when releasing a key

he switches seem to have the stability down at least, now jsut sound

a bit like that.

harsh dove

I had a feeling they might even sound more to my liking (brighter) and ordered them on aliexpress, but the vendor cancelled it due to no stock, so I never bothered to order againdogekek

fluid ravine

#

ah

#

LOL

#

cause i remember you placed a order a while back already at this point

calm pulsar
calm pulsar
#

and it's funny cause they cancelled it on wooting ttc switches release day

kind helm
#

HmmYes maybe secretly its the cheaper but equivalent in terms of stability

calm pulsar
#

well maybe pom on pom gives it more smoothness ultimately and it is justified, but still ttc rgb I think is a nice option if you really need the extra giga stability of the box stem

#

what is the best number

calm pulsar
#

what is the creamiest number

harsh dove
#

Stabilizers can arguably make or break a keyboard and you want to know what the best ones are. I mean, who wouldn’t want the best for their keyboard, right? The problem is that there are so many different stabilizers to choose from. How do you choose the best ones? Well, let me give you my personal tier list of what I think the best stabilizers ...

#

I basically recommend these but the other options he has listed are viable too

ripe tulip
#

i highly recommend typeplus

fluid ravine
#

typeplus & knights goated af

harsh dove
# quasi hinge Why F TP haha

I'm just joking, but if being serious, it's just cause they use a thicker housing than standard and can cause fitment issues with some plates

calm pulsar
#

good thing geon plates have a sufficient cutout for all stabs hehe

harsh dove
#

Yeah most plates that don't use plate mounts are fine

#

its the plate mount cuts that can cause issues with thicker stabs

quasi hinge
#

your joking hate made me self conscious about my TX stabs dogekek

harsh dove
quasi hinge
#

Thank you for clarifying

calm pulsar
#

naah I had good experience with TX AP, especially since they offer a long pole option on both clip in and screw in, which is kinda rare, and long pole knights are always sold out

quasi hinge
harsh dove
#

Yeah I actually used to recommend TX AP all the time until people started having issues

#

just depends on the plate tho

maybe thats why clipin is on top of alexotos list

And since we are OC for any edge whether placebo or not, performance > sound

And I think we can agree that the ttc koms have the best stability rn

they wobble and scratch but they don't make any clacking sounds so I'm quite okay with this haha

harsh dove

Haha fair enough, yeah they’re quiet

glacial wind

yeah sharko found his a tad scratchy too until he lubed

languid kestrel
#

I don't think I'm mentally capable of going through the lubing process again and in general don't feel like these switches are worth it

#

I think I rather wait until someone comes out with a duhuk that also has the silencing leg on the bottom or something

#

the wobble on these is worse than lekker v2s on the top of the keystroke

#

on account of the boxstem it's a lot better at the bottom of course

#

I don't exactly understand how you have a 10km gap everywhere so the switches wobble like crazy but then you also manage to make them scratch duck_sip

hey friends, I was wondering what's the best to lube the springs from my geon raw HE:
-PTFE Oil pen (from Superlube)

#

-or the good old classic GPL 105?

languid kestrel
#

both will probably do the exact same thing

#

105 is tried and true

Initally bought the PTFE oil pen in case I needed to apply a small coat of lube to the magnets

#

so fine by me

Hi guys I got the raw hes, should I also get the ttc poms? Are they similar in terms of performance or atleast close? Because I like the sound of raws which is quite sharp when compared to ttc Poms loud clacky sound which I don’t feel is sharp but a bit flat and loud

little glen
#

If you are satisfied with the geon raws then stick with those

#

Ttc pom are quite expensive and need hand lubing

jaunty grove
#

I’m ok with the raws but if Poms are significantly better I don’t mind getting them

little glen
#

They are a noticeable improvement in wobble

#

there's diminishing returns though, in that as you get closer to minimal wobble it's less and less noticable

#

like how you can technically say ttc snake is 40%+ better in some wobble tests than the ttc pom, but realistically we're reaching such tiny amounts of flux that does it even matter

#

i mean, it's same as what we thought before. His reviews of switches are good and his reviews of overall boards are worthless

#

he checks raw specs very carefully and rates purely off that, it's why his switch reviews are really good

kind helm
jaunty grove
#

How can I make the poms sound sharp and crisp, is there any way?

glacial wind
jaunty grove
glacial wind
#

for example venom on his list would lose to a lot of boards that are far worse

#

because the reviews are solely raw tested spec of boards based

kind helm
glacial wind
#

he does keyboard testing too

#

for pcb stuff

#

but yeah venom with a typical raw he type build would basically get crushed in his list just due to it's raw specs not being as good

kind helm
#

let me check, i haven't looked into this guy honestly, i just got a recommendation and saw it

glacial wind
#

he doesn't have it yet

#

he's very new to doing keyboards as well. He used to just only do switches

kind helm
kind helm
#

lol

glacial wind
#

or jade pros variants

kind helm
glacial wind
#

but even raw spec wise without switches venom would lose

kind helm
#

for the ones i have seen so far either jade pro or ttc

glacial wind
#

because he measures absolute raw specs of the pcb as well

#

and venom is slightly older now even though it's 8k

#

but that's kind of why i don't like his way of rating keyboards - it's a very flawed way to look at keyboards

kind helm
#

there are boards less than 100 RMB?!

#

holy

#

thats like less than 20usd

glacial wind
#

with switches it was good because he could just measure the pure wobble and flux etc of each switch, so at least that was quantified, but with keyboards some non auto calibrating boards with awful software would be beating some great well calibrating boards lol

#

since actual usage doesn't matter when it's just a raw spec vs.

kind helm
#

yea i just went through the parts where wooting score extremely low, literally all lekker's problem

#

bottom rt, top rt, dynamic rt, all from wobble

#

havo kinda funny. hehe kinda

sacred elm
#

Lekker v1.1

#

not v2

yeah his main thing was that his tests showed it performed at a 2023 level, which makes sense since the switches are from 2023 level of switches
