Oh might be hard to get $110 plus shipping for just a tray mount case. Two of the four 60HE's I sold today were $120 shipped, full builds. Not saying you won't get it, but might be hard.

Its the same concept rlly

fluid ravine
#

nah bro i was trying to sell it to my friend that bought me my wooting and venom

#

he's been saying that he wants it

#

but at the end he kept saying he's too lazy to swap it out

#

like bro would complain about swapping keycaps at one point

#

but when he bought gmk caps for the first time which was when he bought my botanicals as well

i lied to my dad that CAM paid 😭
i paid it myself btw

# sour blade

The circumfrence of the friction pad is made for the optimum case diamater which is typically bigger than your avg gh60 case. And the fact that it fits pretty snug is a high chance of it not fitting into cases like tofu redux (it does fit redux but its super tight)

Hello guys, new here, just ordered a wooting 60he+ and came across these keycaps https://share.temu.com/rxu9SIa32VA and wanted if it was compatible with a keyboard French ISO azerty or if someone knows where i can something similar, thx !

It should fit but keep in mind it is a qwerty layout, not azerty

Since it's my first time doing this, i wanted to know if there are some shops selling those kind of keycaps

Itll still work just fine, just the legends will be incorrect

If you really want azerty, maybe there is some GMK sets that have it (but itll be expensive)

#

anyone has lekker v2s and bunch of other good HE switches here? how do they compare in feel

#

i just dont know if they are worth it

stray tiger
#

For example, I've seen a lot of hype around the Venom boards lately (and I own a few and think Geon is an awesome vendor) BUT things that arent mentioned (and should be):

There is no published warranty and returns are limited to 14 days and only if in original condition. The minute you break that DB or USB port off, you're done.
Customers will be required to break out the PCB daughterboard component even if not being used to avoid case interference (not hard, but will be scary for typical user).
Keyboard configs/profiles can't be saved or imported/exported between different boards.
No RGB other than caps-lock indicator (could be a positive for some).

Also, on a semi-related note, there have been some rumors that one of the popular Chinese HE software manufacturers that you find on a lot of the budget HE boards (Geon is not in this group), ALLEGEDLY may have keyloggers/spyware embedded in the controller or web software. This hasn't been confirmed, and may be completely false, but knowing that Wooting's software is developed in a country with the toughest privacy laws in the world, is something that should be considered.

The fun part about switches is that you can start with something and then change to something else later

harsh dove
# high lion and how bad they are compared to your favorites

Lekker V2 isn’t bad imo, it’s a nice upgrade over the V1 in terms of stability/tolerances, but I do prefer closed bottom switches so I don’t use them but I wouldn’t say they’re bad switches, just depends on what you want for sound, feel, and travel distance

But not really tactile

high lion

with decent travel time

but i dont mind looking at the below 4mm options if there are good ones

harsh dove

Well you could always buy whatever switch you want and just spring swap as long as the springs are compatible which you really only have to worry about with TTC KOM switches

oh really

#

I should also mention, the TTC switches have lube but it’s very minimal and you will need to lube them yourself if you don’t like the stock sound

high lion
#

i think i found the right question

#

if i decide to buy lekker v2s instead of trying to decide on all of these recommended switches would i be missing out on alot?

#

although the OwlLabs Ti HE look nice

stray tiger
#

The short answer is that you wont know which is your favorite until you have tried a bunch but ignorance is truly bliss and if you like the ones you have/get, just stick with them.

being delusional does have benefits

You could always just buy small packs of like 10 switches

And try em

Not all sites/switches are sold in small packs tho

i dont mind

i will be using wooting uwu

#

Mmm

high lion

but the only thing stopping me is the lekker v2s being in 20 packs

and that costs way more

than if i bought other switches

Oh so you just want switches for you UwU

chilly mural
#

I feel like you can just get owlab and ttc pom (non woot version) and be fine

harsh dove
#

Not for a whole board?

chilly mural
#

Since both has 10 pack

high lion
#

yeah basically

chilly mural

So it won't be too expensive

im still on a tight budget though

i wanna try and look for those other switch options

but i will need to sacrifice some sanity in the process

Honestly at this point I don't think I can go back to normal BS

#

I'm so used to | \ being my backspace now 😭

#

I'm at school typing and I keep accidently hitting | \ as my BS

For split backspace I use |\ and del

#

Leh backy wacky

cyan lark
#

I could definitely see that being a nice optimization once you get used to it. Similar to my switching caps lock to control. Just can't go back anymore.

Balder when i rebuilt my wooting and tried to do a typing test. i felt like my finga cant reach that far anymore.

harsh dove
#

So not the most stable switches but they sound nice

kind helm
#

for the normal backspace.

high lion
#

im gonna lose it

stray tiger
#

I think I only have a single board with split bs but I love the sound of a good tune backspace key. One of my favs and because my typing sucks I use it a lot lol

harsh dove
#

I do agree, a good sounding backspace is nice

How long is the ti he spring?

sweet oak

About long

stray tiger
#

Thats only when slightly compressed

sweet oak
#

True

high lion
#

i wish unikeys had more switches beside the Ti

sweet oak
#

We need crunchy HE

#

I will continue to advocate it

#

@fluid ravine how do u make the oring in venom fit tighter

#

when i turn my kb over the bottom slightly falls out

#

the top half stays in cuz of the standoffs

stray tiger
thorn zealot
stray tiger
#

That's your problem

#

You need that stabilizer screw-in point to make the o-ring fit tight enough OR you buy a thicker o-ring

high lion
#

should i just get the lekkers if im only gonna be playing osu anyways

#

for the sake of my sanity

stray tiger
stray tiger
# thorn zealot yes

He designed the case with a tiny bit larger opening to accommodate full backspace with screw-in stabs, so not using it affects the fit

high lion
#

if they are a good upgrade from v1s

#

might just go for it

thorn zealot
#

i mean it still fits fine

#

it doesnt fall out if i turn it over

high lion
#

getting both willcost me solid 25 bucks

#

45 and 60

stray tiger
#

Yeah it just wont be as snug

high lion
#

might just sacrifice some cash

thorn zealot
#

im also just lazy cuz i dont want to tune another stab

stray tiger
thorn zealot

Unless you want to see the bottom

thorn zealot
#

ive flipped my kb 3 times in my life

#

these knight v3 stabs are stupid nice

stray tiger
#

Ive flipped some of mine over a lot but the bottoms are so cool that I enjoy seeing them from time to time lol

thorn zealot
#

i dont blame u

harsh dove
#

You can just spring swap

#

Way cheaper

high lion
#

could i use the springs

#

that come with my v1s

harsh dove
#

Unless you care about a different colored stem lol

#

Yes

high lion
#

that the wooting uwu

#

comes with

harsh dove
#

Yes they are the same

high lion
#

good to know

#

i still have some doubts

#

but how much worse can the v2s be than other magnetic switches

#

hopefully not that much

thorn zealot
#

some ppl think v2s are much worse than others

#

some ppl like v2s the most

#

i shouldve said prefer

harsh dove
high lion
#

is that the wobble

harsh dove
#

Yes

high lion
#

damn ttc coms have so little

harsh dove
#

Yeah they’re box stems

#

One of the tightest switches on the market

high lion
#

i heard about

#

osu players switching back to lekkers

harsh dove
#

Yeah for the full travel

high lion
#

yeah the feel

#

if i will only use them to play osu

#

will the wobble be that noticeable

harsh dove
#

Depends how sensitive you are too it

#

Some people don’t care or it doesn’t bother them

#

Some are sensitive to the wobble

#

And some people just want what everyone else has/ is talking about and buy them anyway

high lion
#

maybe

#

i can just get the lekkers

#

and if i dont like them that much

#

i could try some different switches down the line

stray tiger
#

Get the lekkers, you will love them, especially for OSU

high lion
#

the 4.0 mm total travel is a good selling point for me here atleast

high lion
#

down the line i can always buy stuff from ali

#

if i like the lekker v2 60g color more

#

should i just get it and swap the springs if i dont like the weight

#

or do people prefer the 45

#

not like it matters though in this case

harsh dove
#

Don’t worry about us

#

No such thing as best

#

All preference

#

But I also like the Lekker V2 colors more

high lion
#

yeah im getting the v2

#

the weight

#

i got time to think about that

wish i had some 60 gram normal switches on me rn

stray tiger
high lion
#

yeah

#

but i dont want too light of switches for a feedback

#

what does 30 and 45 cn mean

#

like the travel and bottom out

#

force

safe stag
#

10^-1 newton

#

which is basically a gram

high lion
#

oh yeah

#

but why is there a range

#

from what i remember cherry mx reds i had were like 45

safe stag
#

I'm a ADOFAI player, and with all the switches I tried so far (lekker 60, OG jades, jades max and TTC POM), I recommend you to buy the lightest switch for OSU, since an heavier switch will prob decrease your stamina during long games

#

My personnal fav for adofai were def og jades, which are the lightest of thoses I tried

high lion
#

yeah more weight would decrease my stamina

Heavy springs are for fat (finger) folks

is this

what that means

the 45 g and 60g

little glen

Play/pause, volume up, volume down and mod tap the volume keys to skip and back on long press

stray tiger
high lion
#

wouldnt the lekker 60g be equivalent close to cherry mx red weight

high lion
#

the 45s are maybe too light for me

#

im genuinely about to buy both 60 and 45

#

i know i can switch springs

#

but it gotta be perfect

stray tiger
#

Do it and enjoy the rest of your Friday in peace

# sacred elm are they easy to pull ?

They seem fine to me, the clips seem the exact same as the others tho tbh, they don't seem any different like Aligner and Tuan pointed out, think that was just the photos making them look like that but they seem the exact same in person

#

I install my switches south facing so I pull from the back of the housing rather than the diffuser side and that makes it way easier imo

Fuck them diffusers
