i just wanted the rebound sound to be back because it dosnt feel any satisfying
Is that warped
wdym
Yes I know which is because of the holee mod
Is the space bar keycap warped
I'm trying to identify the ticking problem to get to the actual fix
Warped<-
it straight
i think it could be the lube slid back from the end of the wire which caused the little ticking
thats when i dont use holee tho
my gmk spacebar not fully straight
Cus here's the thing, most stabs properly lubed can sound good without having to add extra mods like holee mods, plumbers mod, etc. It is best to keep it minimal so you don't run into more problems.
Unless really needed
All 4 of my gmk bars are wanted but they all sound even on my stabs anyways
Benefits of tight fit on a keycap
i holee modded another set of stabs on my tactile keyboard and it dosnt have that issue so i think its perhaps becuase the he switches rebound isnt violent enough
Well I was in the same road as you here tbh :/
Well mb Im not good at like identifying problems for other people through discord and all that. But I'm just saying that holee mod does need a break in period for it to smoothen out for it to sound normal, but most of the time all you need is lube. Overtime holee mod doesn't last that long as it will slip out and gush out of the stem hole which then you may have to reapply. Another thing is that even after breaking in, there will still be a most likely chance it will still feel sluggish. When you tune stabs it's best to start off with a lil amount of lube, which is where less is more come into play. And if you notice rattle, then add more lube to the wire. Another thing is that too much lube can also cause tick, even things such as warped wire or a warped space bar cap, even if there is empty space between the space bar cap and stem.
wait too much lube cause tick?
Tbh I would say stab mods aren't really needed unless it's REALLY needed
Yes
I learnt that from others and discovered that myself
from physics point of view
zamn
I haven't taken physics yet so I can't tell you nuthin 
would my stab leave any residue of i take off the holee mod
thats what im most afraid of
Uh yes
ye
damn
sticky
But are you gonna reapply the holee mod is the problem
yeah i think ill just let it sit there for now
JUST DONT DO HOLEE MOD UNLESS YOU WANT YOUR STAB TO BE MUSHY
probably not if im gonna take it out
^^^
Well conclusion basically
l or w?
w
love red and white
bro casually writing more eassays, i ain reading all that
Anyways yeah id advise not using stab mods and go full lube
reading hurts

More than I write at school frfr
is that their latest metal case?
Aftermarket I think
no part of this is olivia lol

Fr?
says madlions bottom right
It has the color theme of it
white japanese main with i think a black pink red set
Oh I'm blind lol
mixed matched
As a whole set?
no i mixed 2 sets together
Oh I see
wooting didnt have a white case so i bought another white he keyboard just for the case and the foam pack lol
Well my board is on my pfp so 
they're selling a metal version now
Alumaze
and didnt felt like spending 60 dollars plus shipping for a metal case
send a picture
yeah but its so expensive you can get another custom board solo
Dayum
$45 in china

cheaper than wooting 
Actually true
This board costed almost $100-200 less than my wooting
i get a feeling a lot of 'ticking' that sometimes people say they can't solve isn't ticking but just natural stab sound based on the switches they have installed + normal stab movement and people try to remove that thinking it's ticking
wdym price tag, it's hella cheap and one of the best builds you can do on HE now
Damn people be like that these days?

yea same
people don't even really know what ticking/rattle is half the time. they just watched a youtube video talk about it and think perfect stabs means no sound at all, which just isn't how they work
which joshiba are you talkin to LMAO
GMK desert base Botanical
me
other one haha
No me!
the actual funny thing is some switches actually sound like spacebar rattle in the 80he
raw he being one of them where with certain combination of stabs sounds like rattle
but it's just the rebound sound and the case making it sound like that
Does geon sell this on the main site?
WHERE DID YOU FIND THAT
Very
120 yuan is 20 dolla btw
TYPIST CLUB on taobao
they have full stock of both leggeras
does it say wooting compatible for the weight
yes it does
the owner hella nice
good to know
brought my venom from him
they brought in raws to taobao way before kbdfans
supposedly they started their sell for leggera on 24 this month
but i didnt check
damn didnt know they have that
yea the guy partner with geon
@silent bison
Frog Mini Legger G Cream- $69
GMK desert base Botanical- $135
TypeplisxYIKB stabs- $15
Alu plate- $25
Venom 60HE 7U PCB- $65
DuhuksxRaw Frankenstein: $60 (abt there)
Total: 434
Damn switches made it more expensive than I thought

Yo grab me one
also gmk can be replaced with smth else for cheaper build

Yup
100%
The main parts are pcb, plate, case, and stabs
Which are like
$174
Or $169
Depending on stab price
@fluid ravine gonna help me pay 25% shipping or nah :3
How much is that 
actually nvm let me think
if i buy i cover the shipping from cn to us for you
but between my place to your place you pay :3
O
I wonder how much that is actually
you think cream with copper the move?
How much does the weight or plate weigh?
@kind helm
alright done ordering now
LOL
Got no choice then 
Fk it we ball
Lmk how much shipping is when u get it
when i ordered the plates and pcb
hopefully its around the same
through DHL HongKong
you guys are getting this for venom right

wrd
i think i shouldve asked cam
but emmm
too late now hehe
asking the owner rn how heavy that thing is

you can still cancel, the purchasing isn't instant
they already paid :3
the middle man already paid taobao
dang that's quick
Dayum
still takes like half month so lay back
my weidian purchases usually take at least 30 mins
maybe a chill afternoon for cn rn
he can add another order, it doesnt ship until he pays for consolidation

thats true :3
@harsh dove
Wake up!
It's almost the first of da month!
Lmao
Sure I'll take one if you can add it to order
ok. Why is that?
@harsh dove @fluid ravine wanna get some oring as well?
Nah, I have some, thanks tho
got reply from the owner
the plate is just 50g
so its pretty much nothin
just for the look :3
how much does the forged carbon weigh
yee mainly asked because of the material
according to the owner in a different convo, the viton one is bouncier than the silicon one, but i am not sure how they are different from the rest though
idk probably pretty light too if not lighter
thats ur build?
sounds really nice
let me get a peak at the sound
paid 40 dolla on stems

Well..
Uh yeah lemme find it
Took foams and polyfill out
are there any aftermarket 80he cases coming out or that are available
saved
about the copper weight?
Yeh
i did sir
hey cam
Copper on cream 
YESSIRR
can i ask a favor of you
depends
for the looks its nice, but otherwise 50g is meh
can i please get ur frog
No
thought you were talkin about this for a moment hehe
arent there frogs on mechmarket
does your bumpon still fall out if you slide it?
i want while bumpon like yours so the back look extra good
That sounds really good
Is it because of the case that you were able to make it that clacky
@fallen pecan do you know if ti he is on taobao rn?
since that is sold out on unikey maybe i just grab it through taobao as well
not yet, ill know when it goes up
I always wanted to build a clack build like that but i never could get it close with a plastic case
@kind helm alr time for a change
Actually no, I trimmed it by a mm so it fits in the whole great, no slide
lets go
Everything of my build made it clacky tbh, it's all positive factors
The case, mount, plate, switches, keycap/material
It all falls into its puzzle pieces
Thx btw
Right??
now i need some ti he to complete everything
Me like 
getting leh fluxes to see wsp

i just brought 70 extra raws for nothin i feel :3 almost time to put down those raws
OR
patience
wait for hmx?
Hmmm
If you wanna get need switches for leggera
Might as well wait if they ain't gonna ship it out immediately
i mean raw is good :3
But we can go further 
geon's leggera uses raw :3
are you going to doubt mr geon's choice
i think not
i rest my case

I mean I haven't tried raws in my board sooo
Guess I'm skipping out
HE vs MX
I wonder how my venom would sound in lx60
probably quieter than frog
but maybe not that much cause of the characteristic HE thud
I wanna know whats so good about the venom module vs the wooting module
Kept seeing venom module builds more and more often
Personally if you ask my opinions on why I bought venom, it's most because of the layout and mounting option
I use to own the wooting 60he, the non plus one a 2 years back
yeah those are two actually noticeable things, everything else not so much
Yeh
like 8khz or whatever
Like 8k and firmware
Not too crazy
But I'm personally big on the actual keyboard shiz rather than the tech.
Usually HE peeps would put like performance and firmware first, but as other keyboard enthusiasts I put the build/board itself first and have the tech as a secondary concern
Kinds like a nice to have kinda saying lol
which is why I switches to MX
well I still want HE tech being avilable so I have 2 boards
Proof the HE is getting closer to MX real quik
Exactly
But life of being poor rn
So rip me
I wanna go back to MX but my old MX board was booty

Need to make moni
i think let my salv go back to mx after leggera comes
Don't wanna work in an actual job, I want to actually do keyboard services or commissions lol
Bet
tbh I think the difference is quite big rn, but it's also top mount on frog mini which might highlight the differences more
I'd love to try out leggera
GMk striker 2 or GMk evil eye
i sell you mine if i am not impressed
Oh yeah sure

well I will try venom in a true gummy oring case soon
once I make it work with lx60
@stone flax unc, broken in cherry black worth buying or nah? i am thinking some cherry black with decent spring on salv + fr4 plate
gonna put this set on the leggera i think
hello, does wooting sell a black PC switch plate for the 80 he?
Nope. You’d have to look at 3rd party
mr sno, do you know if geon sells a copper back plate for leggera in kr?
mr jabberwock found a copper backplate for leggera on taobao. i wonder if they only made for cn or it is something planned by geon
Neither really matter to me so ig ill stick with my wooting
he doesn't as far as I see. He might have at the prelaunch ordering maybe, but not for just in stock sale
GMk striker 2 or GMk evil eye ( I like both equally I’m just having trouble deciding which)
yeah just stick to whatever you have now, whether it's venom or wooting. Outside of layout changes upgrading keyboard isn't really a thing that needs to be done regularly at all - at least not until something on the level of rapid trigger comes out again one day
Those are sold out too 😦 I had no idea they were going so fast, I would have checked back earlier so thats my fault too
I was using a dell 8115 before the wooting kek
cant wait for rapidtrigger 2
Yeah!!! It now uses intent to actuate and deactuate the keys
Just needs neurolink and $10 a month subscription
striker
Ok I was going to go with striker since that one caught my eye first
@tulip rapids
Great detail i have been looking for some good custom iso enter carnt find any anywhere
Yep
please send
44 usd
leggera can wait
On the gt80 do u need a daughter board mine was just the pre built 80he
you move daughterboard from your prebuilt 80he
and then use their jst cable
WS Flux news: Next week on Wuque’s Ali store. 😃👍
Yey
It's fine, just wanna see how many will get it
Just got owlab Tee Hee
So won't be buying new switches for a while
ali store still be nice, then you can take advantage of the quarterly big sales
then try coupon stack to get it under $1 a switch, but i guess depends if their real pricing is the -35% price or they actually intend to do $2 a switch after initial launch
I’m guessing it’s gonna be $2 a switch with free shipping
I hope they sell lower amounts as well though
that'll be disappointing if it's that price
most of their other stuff on the ali store is slightly up charged compared to their actual store
even listings that don’t have free shipping
some ali tax prob
new colors wow
Does kbt have anything else cool worth getting apart from gt80 where can you get custom straps
keycaps?
kbt?
kbdfans?
Sorry kbdsfan
Ordered the anodized silver to go with the caps I ordered
tools, spacebar foam if that interests you, switches, keycaps, that one brush that you can use to keep your stuff clean
stabiliser maybe too
lots of things on kbdfans store
im going bankrupt💀
Does anyone no where to get a cool strap for the boards ?
rip awekeys
good luck bro
What u mean ?
pretty ass caps but if thats ur thing then no judgement ig
Still waiting to see numbers on them
Ive already loaded my cart 3 times and backed out
Placebo edge max itch
i gotta stop browsing geekhack 😭
found 2 more ICs of caps i really want and now i'm losing my mind
i have to stop buying keycaps
Which is better? Optimum Alumaze or tofu? And yeah I just realised salvation has a bouncy feel, which fs won’t feel great while I’m playing games
do you have a salvation?
it is not that bouncy or at least not bouncy in the way you think
Is it really better than all the other options?
Can someone exactly explain me what fric vs spring leaf exactly even mean
leaf spring mount check out salvation 60 reviews online, friction mount i think is explained in modding_faq
johshiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiba
yeah its bouncy
preference
good morning uuuuuuuuuuuncle mj
i ordered a leggera last night 
hellllo nephew
ayoo
what config
shii
hehehehehehehe
Anyone know anything about the OW 60he case? looks pretty interesting for a case swap
looks gimmicky
I kinda dig it, Gives me matrix vibes
designs deffo out there
oh 100
But I'm assuming wooting hasn't made an announcement
Soon™️
it's gonna be expensive
Good morning joshiba debtson
is there anywhere i can get iso 80he plates
guten morgen
Доброе утро hehe
True but I wouldn’t want my pcb to bounce when I’m playing a match
why would it
u can add or remove leaf spring points
True
But I’m thinking of getting the normal 80he, do you think that’s better? With the geon raw switches
I’m just kinda worried about the size factor since I kind of like a 60% kb and not tkl
I'm going to assume it's a 350-450$ board, depending on the specs I might get one.
That is, if it isn't a raffle type sale
case
yeah the whole board is gonna be another 120 bucks min
I’m talking about the case alone, no pcb etc included
We don’t know how many pieces it is, but it’s an owlabs board. They aren’t known to be cheap
well we have this

slow joshiba
genuine insanity
personally think its overcooked
all this for the keyboard to not sound good
Venom user copium
did you buy your 400 mid case already
Not yet
Do I need to lube Poms? And can I just use any kind of lube? Do I need to lube my stabs?
@fallen pecan do you have 闲鱼?
i want my 60cu so genuinely badly
my body is aching for it
i need it
its gonna be so fire
i just know
that's cope, get owlabs
i have it downloaded, but i only do window shopping on it
can you help me find some cable for op1 8k
just need a name preferably also the link so i can get it through superbuy
since i am getting stuff through there might as well. didn't even know they have that on 闲鱼 but saw it on bilibili
these two were mentioned under some page i saw

i love you brother
2nd link is a cf bottom for the op18k
yee i dont need a bottom, i have this hehe
100 yuan for that cable kinda nutty
damn
i ain doing more
U can be us distributor
fck no dude :3
Surely u can make up the money through ppls shipping
For the plate
Not for everything else u bought
that's for the strap
everything gonna get packed together for shipping
Tbh I don’t think the copper will way that much heavier
Ahh didn’t know this was available. Considering the amount of pieces, machining and (assuming) low moq. This doesn’t seem too bad
Yeah
thanks again man. i wasnt able to find any cable in us. you da best
Do u have link
Early access bois
500 ain bad
Roughly 375~ no?
nah these are scalper resale prices
retail's gonna be a bit lower
I was doing euro math, but already on resale before global launch
Average mnk moment
ah not that much, it went for 2799 rmb for round 1
I think you need to finish building your mouse dude
Ay yo
@kind helm
Hey guys! I just lubed 90 switches and after I have done everything, I noticed that there is a small notch in the stem. Is it important that these are orientated to north or to south? Or doesnt it make any difference?
Why are guys on the iqunix server so retarded TvT
One guy said he can feel the difference between 8k and 1k polling
And that’s why iqunix is better
Lekker v2? Doesn't matter the orientation.
There's plenty of folks on here that will say the same (or 0.000001mm RT, etc etc) 🤷
Honestly I was planning to get the iqunix but I don’t think I’ll have the same kind of software and help
yea surely
leave that server
😭
Anything over 1k polling is almost placebo even in mouse
well youll notice misinputs with that low rapid trigger, so technically it is noticeable
I already did
at least on mouse you can notice slight difference on high refresh rate monitor, but definitely not on a keyboard. its bs
Now the only issue i have with Wooting is the case idk what case to get
Kbdfans Gt80 is an upgrade ngl
gt80 seemed kinda mid in reviews
how is it mid
sounded worse then the zinc one
looks maybe ye
The issue I have is ttc poms in the store TvT
In the website. You can choose whatever. Pcb, plate etc
I CANNOT JUST NOT BUY THEM
Looks is also preference 🙂
But the ball catch design is cool for sure
the design of the balls is surely nice
if u cant tell 1k to 8k on a mouse ur either on a badly implemented mouse or ur also the type of person who cant distinguish 144hz and 240hz
deaduzz
I agree, you cannot not avoid missing buying them
yall think someone would just buy the zinc case off me 🤔
And that’s what just pushes my expenditure over 500$ bro TvT
The good news is that KoM POMs are real nice 🙂
Yes!
Stopppp
😭😭😭😭😭
Do I need to lube my stabs?
There are a lot of variables. 8k polling effectiveness also depends on the games you play. Also 8k polling in mouse has cpu issues and frame drops in some games
And even then, it only has a minimal effect on your kda with or without 🤣🤣🤣
@harsh dove here you go, weight for the original plate
depends on a monitor too, on 144hz it doesnt matter if you have 1k or 2k polling
we are placebo maxxing so, we use 8k polling on 60hz monitor
based on the test i saw, at 1k polling, 500 fps shows missing input from mouse at some frame
Possibly. If you're buying new stabs, they will come unlubed. If you're using the stock ones, you may still want to take a pass at them.
but really minimal and at high speed movement
my monitor is pretty bad 144hz va, so i can see no difference between 1k and 4k-8k. so i just set 2k and call it a day
Wootings stock stabs
blue dot is mouse input not shown on the frame but can be read if the game has subtick
green dot is mouse input shown on the frame
red dot means that within a particular frame the game did not receive a mouse input
i do 2k too and gonna leave it until somehow my pc can do 1000+ fps stable
in the games i play :3
skrill issue
input clarity
i use 8k now because anything lower is not stable on my beastx currently, there should be new firmware that fixes it this week, then ill use 2k
thats fcked
LeastX
ok
someone gotta make a cheap alternative for beastx mice
Beastx is the cheap alternative
Finalmouse
Beast x already are the "cheap" alternative
finalmeme
Ah yiiiz memories
I remember the batch 1 issues with the finalmeme
like beastx isnt a better mouse
Then beastx went viral
Cheaper for me at least in my region
i lowkey actually didnt notice
Unacceptable
I cannot win in Fortnite with a scratch like that
Im Happy with my crap deathadder v3 pro🤣
that massive of a molding defect is massive amateur hour tho
Literally 3 months after purchase has scroll wheel issues 🤣
Had a good experience with viper mini actually. That made me buy the dav3pro
is it that bad?
i meant finalmouse btw, dunno hows dav3 but their viper v3 is great
Im pretty happy with my finalmouse
And i got the famous piss yellow aceu mouse
Except mine never turned yellow
logitech copying finalmouse features now lol
my pulsefire haste wireless is going strong after 3 years
its great lmao apart from the copium amount of dust and hair inside the mouse due to the holes (which i can clean with isopropal and a qtip)
would love to get a wlmouse sometime though
Ye 3 mos i got scroll wheel issues. Misinput/jumping not sure the technical term. Since i already know warranty's going to be bad in my region, i had the scroll wheel sensor replaced with ttc gold by a friend. And it was kinda an upgrade so im happy with it now
-2% WWWWWWWWWW
i bought my brohter a mx master 3s and it broke down on him this month
the switches broke
which seem to be a common issue with it
apart from that its a great mouse though
hes using my baslisk v3 hyperspeed rn
I just got some xray jade's well good
i wish the baslisk had a lightweight version the v3 is a brick
Just get the angrymiao mouse
Does finalmouse have software ?
Web based
it looks like a baslisk v2 or smth lol
im tempted lowk
I really liked the pulsar software looks old but has every setting
ngl though i think i would rather get a WL mouse
I would rather get a finalmouse than a wlmouse
what was this site called again?
eloshapes
it’s fine if you want a worse product man
but nobody really asked
nah
its better
Whats better than finalmouse iyo
Da ulx
superlight v2 obv 🙄
LOL!
Angrymiao better cause infinite battery
nes*
nah i’m trolling
mb
i never owned one as a small child lmao
still awesome concept for a mouse though
this is also an interesting mousepa
Thicc butt
this is so ugly
I kind of like the design if it didnt have the branding
thats cool, but nobody asked
I did
LMAO THATS WHAT I SAID
I stay hating finalmeme
That looks cool asf hope they do a different colour tho
They have a dark one too
Wooting fighting game controller when?
Right after the Wooting mouse
I upgraded from the V2 pro to the V3 pro because my mouse wheel just wouldn't work. Tried everything. And I just can't get the V3 to feel as good as my v2 did so I like that you guys share nice, gives me some ideas.
v3 pro of what?
he mouse?
💀
Razer
what model tho
you cannot tell me that they did not copy paste the same picture
Viper
guys super sale
@fringe quarry
is the best x max just bigger then the best x pro?
What would be a good V2 pro alternative?
i might just get beast x pro with sides filled
uh not sure honestly
once i stop being broke
wasnt my shape so didnt look into it further
I need to see if there is someplace I can send the V2 to have the scroll wheel sensor replaced. I know nothing about mice components
It would double or triple scroll when using it. I blew it out with air and everything else they suggested and it would work for a day and then eventually it stopped fixing it
good time to swap
Found the best and fastest way to lube switches
Ghibli filter doing pretty good lol
Now try ghibli filter on sander eating switches
This was the original
Was a 70's wedding we went to a few months ago
……….,.
This is how you plock (poppy lubed CLOCKY THOCKY CLACK CLACK GAAAAA)
You need to use something thicker or it'll just leak out. I usually just dunk them in vaseline
Oh you use TAA on your switches?
oh i see
good idea
That’s disgusting
Ready for match 3?
Can try turning your mouse upside down and rolling it across your mousepad 2-3 times quite quickly, sounds silly but can get some of the dust out from the sensor
I'd try anything. Wonder if there is a guide online on taking it apart and cleaning the sensors
its a great mouse 
v3 pro or beast x pro
Loving my solid sides beast x tho 
my dream mouse fr
dude
if there was like a 40g solid mouse
But ye both are great
with good quality and good software
ez cop
no hestitation
as long as its below like 200$
Crazylight? I don’t remember its weight tho
kinda want to try solid sides too
Ulx large
💀
do i just need to lube stock wooting stabs to make them not sound horrible
Well if you wanted to try something fun there's the Lamzu Tachi it has easy access screws for taking apart the mouse and has hot swappable switches too 
no finalmouse
hitscan hyperlight
Scyrox
also does anyone have good skates reccomendation for an artisan zero
i play val and stuff so
xraypad jades or tigerice v2
how quick
They feel nice, normal beast x size fits my hands perfectly so the solid sides nicely hold my fingies 
Yes. Most of the time a good lube and tune is all you need
Honestly thought side slits would bother me but not at all
They only did on my pinky, put some tape to solve that
But that was the original revision so the smaller slits would be better
i havent tried normal beastx, pro version has smaller slits, maybe thats why
am i going to also need to lube my owlab switches when they show up or is the factory lubing good
Its aight
Hi mj
I’m at work. I always miss the finals.
Hello roytheboytoy
Are you gonna start glazing flux
also does anyone know why the lube on my koms wear off so fast
like i overlubed all my switches because of this reason and not even a month later the sound like factory
What lube
I’m not sure how your lube could be wearing off in closed bottom switches honestly
Especially not in a month. Some open bottoms leak lube but closed bottoms don’t
am i just doing something wrong
I think you might perhaps just like the feel of overlubed switches and when the lube settles it’s not the same feel anymore
it sounded more deep lmao
maybe i just dont like clack
still an upgrade over my old keeb
mnbmnbmnbmnbjhgjhgjhgjhguytuytuytdsadsadsa
Xray jade's are really good i have the dots but I want to try the donuts
Donuts betters for softer pads
I don't think anyone is going to glaze them at their current price. Too much competition for less money.
yea they are good, i use tigerices rn because they are a little slower on my raiden
Snap raiden bros
alumaze
No why
Sounded good
They cost the same as snake koms, no?
you have raiden too?
The same applies to those as well. There is too much competition to justify the price difference. Not only are the Owlabs very close, but significantly less money. Plus there are other switches coming at a much better price point that will likely be even better.
The switch nobody in here purchased because they were crazily expensive?
Colour is werid but top quality
Its really just the bestness tax
Same thing applied to poms when they costsd a dollar
People dtill bought
i dont mind the color
Cuz “ohhh itsss the besttt”
How you glazing a switch you don't even own that costs $2
Lol
Cuz best. EZGG
ppl glaze poms because of reasons they dont understand “ohhh the min max wobble flux stability”
Cool that Mouz won map 2 tho. Actually making it competitive
POMS just THE BEST
Problem is they aren't the best. Not from a sound perspective (to me) and no measurements yet to show yet from a performance perspective.
These are more expensive then those and we still bring up price Everytime POM is mentioned
And if they are the best, then theres a market, same way poms did
POM’s are just rock solid
couldnt record on phone
And oh hey look, they actually have a proper pre-lube from the factory
Thats a selling point
Just hard to match with things but it's pretty much black tbf
Some people dont want to have to lube switches
it was mind numbing asf
Yeah
still taking every switch apart at once
I just purchased Gateron Jade Pros, thoughts on the switch?
Which ones are well factory lubed?
made it morel ike fun ig since less brainpower needed
Flux
Solid switch. I would enjoy them
coming from stem swapped raptor HE
Oh cool
cool
The factory lube on the Owlabs is really solid. I have no desire to lube them.
They okay
Great switch!
Cool!
what do you call the thing between pcb and the switch plate
foam?
Foam or sillicone
ok yeah but like if i am describing my board do i use it or nah
since mine is silicon
silicone
whatever
Preference
And some don't want to spend 4x the price of already good switches
what do i say if i want to include it lmao
"silicon sandwiched between pcb and switch plate"
Same way some people dont wanna use poms cause they cost 90c, no ones forcing you to
It's included by default
yeahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh but mine is silicone
:)
since pc plate
Its higher pitched a bit compared to foam
You want foam instead of silicone?
do i?
Preference
Do you?
koms sound pretty clacky to me so i fully commited lmao
Yeah but we're doubling the price of those 
Using nothing is also an option
They cost $1.30
idk what else to put in my board
Fr?
Is it pretty hypocritical and hilarious the 180 jump from the pom hate because it was $1 a switch saying “the stability doesn’t matter, duhuks better value!” to glazing a $1.30-2 switch now and not applying the same logic to them just because it’s approved by their crew lol
Yep
whats this yappage abt
there is discount code, flux35
Anyone seen pom springs i want some 80g springs
Long springs on ali
And also 0 reviews aside from D said it was good
Around 20-22mm
WS makes some solid stuff, and I'm sure the flux will be a great switch, but it's a horrible value and may not even be the best performing at that price.
does nayone have a sound test of silicone vs foam with koms
Have u used ?
Im a min-maxxer so personally if its the best i want it
wooting probably has one on youtube right
It’s not even that the flux may very well be a great switch like thockfather said. It’s just funny that the attitude flip happens when the flux is approved by them and the pom isn’t - yet both switches suffer same pricing issue
On wooting
If the measurements come back mid, the price will drop significantly. It's a hype price right now.
And that’s when pom isn’t like .75 cents per on wooting with discount and flux is like $1.30 at best right now.
is there also a difference
between the foam wooting gives with the pc plate
vs the stock foam
Foam lower pitch
If anything the pricing argument regarding buying another switch like owlabs or duhuk applies even more now to flux because they’re even higher priced lol
not silicone
Duhuks better
the pc plate is included with both foam and silicone so im wondering if that foam is different from stock foam
unles like
youre saying that foam is deeper then stock foam
The craziest thing about any switch right now is that at the rate new switches are coming out, anyone paying that much for a switch is crazy. We are getting roughly 1-2 new switches a month currently.
Oh no compared to sillicone it is
Done modding my 80he ft this for the finishing touches
ok so the stock foam and the foam the pc plate comes with is the same
Frontiermen
It's an exciting time in the industry!
I'll be the first to jump on the WS bandwagon if the hype is real and they justify the price. I love seeing competition.
yeah that’s the main thing, they have to justify the price increase first
Just like kom snake did
When they added a qr code
😭
Has wuque had any switches that weren't just the jade recolors?
For he nah
Note : "The silicone pad gives a more muted experience of the sound profile by lowering more mid frequencies and creates shorter, snappier sounds. The foam pad mutes more of the higher frequencies creating more emphasis on 'thock'."- Wooting
"Although poron should mute higher frequencies, silicone lowers the mid frequencies which could mean that if the switch is neutral or low pitched then it should stay low pitched but more quiet vice versa with high frequency i presume which is why its more muted"- The Thackson
As i made a statement about this right here from the Wooting PC Plate website, these three tests proves that the poron does in fact remove the higher frequency sound of the switch/board making the sound profile much deeper than the switch actually sound , however looking back at the silicone sound test, the pad does in fact remove the mid frequency which would make the board sound more muted yet still clacky as so. As the silicone pad removes the mid frequency of the board it will now mostly rely on how the switch sounds (Low pitched or high pitched), if the switch like the RAW HE or Jades for example is a higher pitched switch, the board will now sound clacky BUT muted, but if the switch is neutral/lower pitched like the KS20U, lekkers, Raptors/Fraken Raptors, and etc, the board will sound the same but more quieter.
@steel ibex
Wuque morandi still one of the most popular switches ever made though
Oh shit-
joshiiiiiiiba
Hai :3

I think it’ll take flux going $1 or less per and also showing some noticable improvements to consider buying for me. Same deal as what happened with poms
joshiiiiiii u getting fluxes
Ye
lessgo

min-maxxer right here

he is minning that max
My only switch experience with wuque was the silent linears they released and their later batches were super scratchy made them unusable
Morandi I have a set of still, I like them but they also weren’t that expensive like flux lol
No he isn't, he is gambling lol. You talking about these being max and don't even have them and no one credible has measured them
People bought kom snakes
People will buy fluxes
We will min the max
People aren't recommending snakes though that's the difference
Didn’t literally entire server clown on snake pricing
Who is we? You got a mouse in your pocket?
curious to try these. they say the later batches of morandis have bad factory lubing
Dont cop morandis
old old old without retooling
batches are cooked
Someone tried to bait me into buying them 👀
i have the gateron oil kings instead.
maybe if wooting storefront carried them for $1.10 a switch
Was probably someone who has been on the hobby for maybe 2-3 years and maybe owns 2-3 boards.
What's min maxxing 
tysm
Np man, hope you understand
Getting the greatest performance you can
Oh I see
Poor Tuan
Yeah where is my son? It's Sunday so probably at church

I am 
I'm abt to leave in a bit
Mmm, any flux review yet?
normally he stays out of these convos because he hates drama, but I don’t think he realizes the whole convo is replying to sarcastic rage bait lol
what is sarcastic rage bait
Oh flip I didn't realize till you pointed that out 
( ̄ヘ ̄)ᵁᴹᴹ
You guys are all sarcastic rage bait to me
spills protein drink
Did u see my new lubing method
More like obvious shilling.
This
Oiled up

I put the needle in between the stem and housing
It got that stepping in mud sound
Save some for after hours my dude 💦
I got a whole bottle in my drawer for spare
I am curious to see when Chinese tests will pop up for them
I’m surprised they didn’t already have them available for orders open actually, but maybe they want the reviews combined with launch of their keyboard
Would be sad if they performed like Mount Tais for how expensive they are
How much were mt tais actually?
Cheap like $40 for 90
Oh that’s not so bad then, at least people who got them didn’t lose much
I'm guessing they will perform just fine but I'm also guessing the price will plummet quickly.
Wait what we talking abt 
The flux switches
Exactly what Hejin did with Black Knights 🥴
Didn’t realize they were Pc top and bottom
So they’ll sound deeper
Than most others
Like UR ICE
I’m guessing they perform roughly in that pom/rgb level for stability, which is fine but not really justifying the price increase
They sounded higher pitched actually but softer. At least that’s from the tests that were posted
Oh interesting
Yeah that’s my guess too , just curious about the sound and overall feel with those T rails
