you got them already? I still haven’t received an update on the shipping 🄓

calm pulsar
#

good decision

thorn zealot
north sand
#

how much layers of tape does the wooting 80he have on it already? is it just one?

reef oar
#

0?

#

do they pre tape the 80he?

#

no way

marsh saffron
#

okay i love the ti hes

#

they sound so good

reef oar
#

oh you mean for the sound test nvm

marsh saffron
#

and the wobble is soooo much better than og jades dogekek

reef oar
#

i still have 70 jades from when i accidentally ordered them instead of the pros

#

i should like

#

do something with them

marsh saffron
#

i just swapped off og jades

#

to the tee hees

reef oar
#

sprinkle them onto the sidewalk maybe

marsh saffron
#

still need to get pom plate to replace my steel plate tho

reef oar
#

really going for pom?

marsh saffron
#

probably

#

or fr4, havent fully decided yet

reef oar
#

what you not like about the steel?

marsh saffron
#

its quite loud but its starting to grow on me....

#

with the ti's, its like a loud poppy clack and im kinda really liking it

#

could get cf plate and fully embrace it....

reef oar
#

yeah, wouldn't hurt to get a pom plate either

#

cf is really nice on mine

thorn zealot
night atlas
thorn zealot
#

but this isnt a 80he

reef oar
#

but i only had pc before so idk how steel or pom would compare

marsh saffron
#

might try and record a sound test with the ti's

north sand
marsh saffron
#

my setup for sound tests is slightly scuffed, less so than it used to be though

#

but man the loud poppy clack grows on me the more i type......

#

@sacred elm i love you for sending me the keybay link

thorn zealot
north sand
thorn zealot
#

but its an mx build

#

not he

#

(its my sis kb)

north sand
#

oh

night atlas
#

One thing I am noticing about the astrolinks is that the railing that guides the stem in the bottom housing, has a slight inward curve which causes some friction. just finished lubing them so they're fine for now, but I foresee them reverting after some of the lube breaks in.

#

keys aren't getting stuck or anything so it's nothing like the jade maxes

marsh saffron
#

im just now realizing how much worse og jades were for stem wobble, damn ive been missing out

night atlas
#

but yea, idk if it's by design

marsh saffron
#

this shits so stable

night atlas
#

what're you using now @marsh saffron

marsh saffron
#

ti he

night atlas
#

hell ya

marsh saffron
#

they feel and sound so good

night atlas
#

agreed, what plate are you on?

marsh saffron
#

steel rn

#

but im gonna change that eventually

#

cant decide what plate material i wanna swap to yet though

night atlas
#

i didn't like em on my PC plate, but the fr4 plate did wonders

all of this subjective of course

marsh saffron
#

cf, fr4, or pom

reef oar
#

cf >

night atlas
#

i wanna try cf nex

#

next*

#

i'm liking my fr4 for now though, it's nice

north sand
# marsh saffron ti he

they seem nice but i like black knights more, just in what I've heard on yt, when I get mine imma see

marsh saffron
#

ill have to see how the loud poppy clack grows on me over the next bit to decide

thorn zealot
#

betterbestieiest

marsh saffron
#

in terms of loudness, cf would be louder than fr4, while fr4 is louder than pom. correct?

reef oar
#

yeah

night atlas
#

@marsh saffron fwiw in my personal exp the owlabs sounded too quiet and dull in my POM plate

marsh saffron
night atlas
#

and PC

reef oar
#

for me it was very marginal going from pc to cf, it made more of a difference in stiffness than sound

  • i can get alu plate from toronto keyb man iirc so that'd save on import fees
marsh saffron
night atlas
#

oh lol

#

not gonna give u financial advice but i hope you find a medium that allows you to experiment

marsh saffron
#

gonna see how the loudness grows on me and decide in a month or two probably

night atlas
#

tough out here fr

#

got mad lucky w/my current job

marsh saffron
#

once i get another job ill experiment

thorn zealot
night atlas
#

are you US based?

marsh saffron
marsh saffron
night atlas
#

ooo i c

marsh saffron
#

i might rebuild with my pc plate just to see if i like them quieter

#

can help me decide between pom/ fr4, alu, or cf

thorn zealot
marsh saffron
#

but the sound they making rn on steel is kinda hot

reef oar
#

i really think the volume when swapping plates is marginal and it's more down to your case and foam

marsh saffron
#

because cf would be loud asf prob

#
  • i can get alu plate locally
marsh saffron
thorn zealot
#

yeah to me fr4 sounds a lil thin and dead

marsh saffron
#

gummy oring mount but still traymount case so it prob doesnt do too much

thorn zealot
#

and cf is bright but doesnt sound as natural as alu

reef oar
#

natural?

thorn zealot
#

idk cf just doesnt sound as good to me as alu most of the time

reef oar
#

yeah that's fine

#

it varies bc i'm pretty sure the resin in the actual weave is what's most important

tawdry tree

#

lekker v1 > jade pros

reef oar
#

i'm not remembering that

thorn zealot
#

i think ur just not accepting the hard truth

reef oar
#

hard propaganda

thorn zealot
#

nope

#

just truth

#

and science

night atlas
reef oar
#

v2 implies v1 had a problem. there's no jade pro v2. checkmate.

night atlas
#

same config as in all the foams and stuff are the same, but the plate was swapped

reef oar
#

interesting

night atlas
#

we could also just have varying anecdotal evidence though

#

so not ruling your statement out

reef oar
#

i swapped polycarbonate to cf and the profile slightly changed, less so than the stiffness

#

definitely didn't like the slight softness of the pc

#

i remember getting a stock 60he+ and pressing on it for the first time

#

felt like i was pressing into a sponge

night atlas
#

i liked that feeling at first, but i now enjoy rigidity accompanied by the volume increase

thorn zealot
night atlas
#

no longer a pc plate enjoyer

plus jade is a cool gem. it's not coal pro. iron pro. JADE pro.

need to quiet down my spacebar a tad for my liking, but the rest of the keys sound great

they are higher pitched and a tad louder than my jades (jades were hand lubed i didnt touch my ti's)

the best plan ive come up with should be getting custom gateron hes and make them neon marker yellow in order to be banned from all storefronts for your tastes

wispy fable
#

why gateron not making milky yellow for HE 😦

#

it will be a good switch

#

or maybe oil kings HE

#

rather than f sakura's

#

i should work at gateron

#

and make good colorways

#

bring back different weight spring = different stem colors

#

yellow = light, black = heavy

#

red = medium

#

bruh, i should make my own switches huh

tropic urchin

they should make it "mech colorway"

so u can't say it's the materials, it's more of the plate tolerance

Shafie is being ironic with the posts, but 100% there’s people that are going to read it and think he really loves them lol

In jokes don’t really translate that well to new folks passing through

he does love them though, or else how would someone cope with spending 200 on switches🌹

#

The legs breaking off is a big concern. I'll be curious if others experience the same.

glacial wind
#

Yeah the legs thing is not great, especially for the price

sacred elm
night atlas
#

if we're talking about the legs breaking off the owlabs.. yea most of mine have broken off lol

#

the plastic is so soft

glacial wind
#

If it was a random person who never mods I wouldn’t put much thought into it, but because it was cam who isn’t new to modding it’s a bit scuffed if he’s breaking legs

night atlas
#

its has hard as stale taffy

#

as*

glacial wind
#

Seems like quite a serious design flaw if you can’t remove them without breaking some

night atlas
#

thought it was me at first, but after trying different strengths + switch pullers, i realized it was the material of the switch itself

#

never ever happened w/any of my other switches

#

i'd been thru like 10+ sets, w/many reinstallations too

#

Talking about the fluxes. I've had no issues with the TI's

night atlas

thats awk lol

sacred elm

#

damn maybe my batch is just very soft?

wispy fable

is it okay to buy the frog mini leggera T?

night atlas
#

i could bend the legs with my bare hands, not using a lot of strength either

sacred elm
#

legs dont really matter

night atlas
#

ya they work fine, the swithc plate holds em in fine

#

still annoying tho

sacred elm
#

but its unacceptable that they break on 200$ switches

#

do we have a sound test of fluxes

night atlas

not bad

sounds decent to me

Yeah I feel if it’s a .50 cent switch I wouldn’t feel too bad if one or two break

#

But if my $2 switches break I’d be sad knowing every 2 switches is a bubble tea

night atlas
#

@distant crag

#

not the best recording lol

#

doesn't sound anything like how i hear it irl

#

hopefully you can kinda make out the sound

distant crag
night atlas
#

yea, but a lot more plasticy?

#

i wouldn't consider it "thocky" by any means

#

to me, in my configuration, they sound like skyline everglides

#

sounds like ice cubes in a glass cup being swirled lol

distant crag
night atlas
#

that's the best way i can put it

#

once i get this recording down w/my new audio set up, i'll hopefully deliver a better recording

calm pulsar
night atlas
#

personally like the sound and feel of the owlabs on it, but i'm forcing myself to use these for at least a week since they literally just came in the mail today lol

#

fr4 plate, poron plate foam, poron case foam, tofu 60 acrylic

distant crag
#

I see. I think i'll pass on the astrolinks. I was hoping they're gonna be new best since it is HMX hehe

night atlas
#

if u were wondering

night atlas
#

i feel it, i'm just looking for new sounds at this point lol, they're all functionally the same to me. i'm fine as long as i don't regress to jades and raws lol

#

raws felt good for like a week

then they felt ticky and wobbly

If he’s getting the spouse aggro only real solution is probably getting some true silent switches

night atlas

yea was boutta say deeper=/=quieter

distant crag
#

will try to find softer plate for now. but I really like the typing feel of owlabs. my wife just dont want 'clacky' kb sound. she's pissed when i replaced my jade pros lol

glacial wind
#

What if she’s testing you

#

She wants to see if you’ll stand up to her. Install carbon fiber plate and ttc poms

That’s why I have such a great spousal relationship

the carbon fiber plate was the trick

alright, definitely less physical wobble than poms and cleaner sound

#

louder than poms

#

I like this, but price is poop

#

with poms you physically feel stem movement left to right, you dont feel that with fluxes

woeful maple

#

not if you have the wooting one since if you only bought the pcb of the 80he it does not come with the daughter board

It’s very worth to buy the $10 plastic case add when you buy the module honestly

#

Since it comes with both the daughter board and a cable

#

How can I imrpove the sound of my woothing 60he to make it sound more like thockier

glacial wind
#

honestly not a ton of highly recommended things specifically for thock. That sound profile is a bit hard to get in HE keyboards, but there are things you can do/swap to get a more clear, pleasing sound if that's your goal

storm axle
#

would there be a great difference if i were to remove the sticker thing on the back of the 80he and actually tape modded it?

glacial wind
#

i don't like tape mod for some switches, makes them sound worse, but it's just your preference for what type of sound you want

Ok mouse pad enjoyers, suggest a slow/control glass pad. Ive been told they exist and I think Im done with cloth for a while.

cyan lark
#

I'm on wallhack (sp-004) but I don't think it's slow

#

Do like it tho

It does have ✨art✨ on it

So i bought the geon raw hes for my 80he I really love the sound of them, also the less stem wobble is a big plus, now I was thinking of making the voice creamy

I did some research and found tape mod can make the sound pop make it a little deep basically what enthusiasts call the thocky sound which I kinda want since the geons have a little high pitch so it can act as a low pass filter and then to suppress the noise a little so its more creamy I was thinking of putting Siless or what they call the automotive dampening foam

Would you guys see this working and making it a little creamy?

I need to get better mouse control so I can use glass again

im not even that careful with it honestly i put cups key phone water bottles on it and the surface is still scratch free lol

I take decent care of mine but same

I still put shit on it just gently

And don't move it around

silver nest

i do wipe it down with windex twice a week

marsh saffron

I only wipe the dust off mine

I clean it when I notice it's dirty

silver nest

im in a basement si its always dusty

its really annoying

marsh saffron

I have ac/fan going a lot so dust gets kicked up over time

silver nest

moving the mouse on it is like driving a car over a pothole

i use dot skates so its not as bad but when they wear out the glide is so scratchy

what're good skates for tac fps? i'm hearing that something TOO smooth aren't the best since the stopping power isn't their strength

#

i use a control pad fwiw

and i have a hitscan hyperlight

if that means anything

marsh saffron

ok lemme look em up, thx mane

They’re kind of a hybrid between fast and slow skates

thanks y'all

#

whatever's good for cs and val

#

lol

sacred elm
#

obsidians will be too slow on control pad

night atlas
#

i like the feeling of the stock skates i have on my hitscan hyperlight, which are PTFE iirc

#

i assume there's diff textures of PTFE?

#

or are they all p much the same

tropic urchin
# night atlas okay noted

I’d order both obsidian and tiger ice dots, and then try both and see what you like on your pad that way you don’t try just 1 and not like it

night atlas
#

might just do that

#

it's a shame that they're not reusable

#

well, hard to stick on after the initial removal

#

unless u guys got a lil lifehack for that

i’ve used red obsidian ls on glass for a while

#

what FPS do u guys play

tropic urchin
#

R6/tarkov atm

silver nest
#

i got the purple ones today

night atlas
#

i assume that y'all play fps cause i don't think other types of gamers are into skates like this

#

or OSU

#

unironically i think i can see those hardcore pvp minecrafters being into this too

#

now that i think about it

noble delta
# quasi hinge

so my shit from ali i just bought will get cancelled 🄲

night atlas
#

do any of y'all use glass pads for tac fps?

sacred elm
night atlas
#

i always hear mixed reviews, but the ones that DO use it for tac fps are usually the movement players

#

bhoppers in cs, neon mains in val etc

sacred elm
#

but ill get balanced glasspad

night atlas

that's what i've noticed at least

sacred elm
#

not fast

ooo, that sounds appealing

tropic urchin

i just like the idea of glass mosuepads cause of the ease of cleaning

sacred elm
#

it will be still fast but its fine

night atlas
#

are there such a thing as slow/control glass mousepads

#

that're maybe the same as an artisan or something similar

sacred elm

no clue about control glasspads
