[sacred elm]

asd said that wobble is noticeably worse, like 20% or something

[quasi hinge]

also they apparently sound more like the Fluxes

[glacial wind]

yeah but i think the 20% number is nonsense

[quasi hinge]

That is what my quant estimated

[glacial wind]

20% is a big difference in physical movement, i think his quant is just saying stuff

[quasi hinge]

looool

I trust the guy

[glacial wind]

you also need to stop calling your modder a quant lol

[quasi hinge]

Its a joke looool

[kind helm]

my preference is 100% better than everyone else

[sacred elm]

lol

[quasi hinge]

Ill test it later 1v1 and ping you guys

any keys or a few?

[glacial wind]

yeah just try it yourself later, but do it blind

[calm pulsar]

I prefer more wobble so jokes on you guys

[sacred elm]

raeds better

[kind helm]

lekker v1 enjoyer

[glacial wind]

like i legitimately think you're way overanalysing the whole thing lol

they're probably almost the exact same thing and it's just placebo need to feel there's a difference

[quasi hinge]

They are a different design

So I imagine there would be slight differences

but allegedly they are more wobbly

like a lot

[glacial wind]

i'd wait till it's actually measured

[quasi hinge]

but ill see later

[sacred elm]

lekker v1 wins

like always

[glacial wind]

i don't trust anyones physical shaking videos generally because people suck at guessing that stuff

[quasi hinge]

Yeah I need to feel it myself

[glacial wind]

like just keys in a different flex spot of the board can produce wobble differences even

[kind helm]

now i know i am too drunk when i pause my music to listen to that shit

[calm pulsar]

yeah its always so weird

[quasi hinge]

cf plate

[glacial wind]

and when we're talking about differences of like 0.05 or whatever i think physical shaking is a bunch of bs

[calm pulsar]

even the same switch people can press differently

[glacial wind]

like it's so hard to press them exactly the same as a human to tell the difference at those levels

[kind helm]

but 💯

[quasi hinge]

Ill try later myself

If you are right

[kind helm]

i cant say i love he boards since i never switch tape modded my switches

[quasi hinge]

then im in luck

I can use sneks

[glacial wind]

oh my other owlab switches arrived, i have more than 1 single owlabs switch now lol

[calm pulsar]

your fingers are wobbly

hit the gym

[sacred elm]

wtf

[quasi hinge]

Shf cant catch a break lol

[kind helm]

[quasi hinge]

camera this, flux that lmao

[calm pulsar]

sorry I died in hollow knight again

[sacred elm]

how did you even get 1

[glacial wind]

i bought just 1 switch when i was buying some other stuff from swagkeys

[sacred elm]

[kind helm]

all gud i gave up

[sacred elm]

hope you die again

[glacial wind]

they sell switches in individual amounts in korea

[chilly mural]

Imagine they forgot

[calm pulsar]

I won't

[kind helm]

some day

some day i will finish this shit

[calm pulsar]

its such a good game I can't believe I started it once and never finished

now im on 97%

[kind helm]

masochist

[sacred elm]

not even 98%

[calm pulsar]

anyone else has a crush on Hornet?

what

[sacred elm]

lost his mind

[kind helm]

in case bro delete his msg

[calm pulsar]

I won't

[kind helm]

i wish i took a screenshot of turingtest tongue typing his board

[fringe quarry]

in case bro delete his msg

[kind helm]

that shit was goated

[calm pulsar]

but fr I love the music and the design in this game

[sacred elm]

WHAT

[calm pulsar]

ohh I remember that

[kind helm]

bro deleted hella fast, i was still in shock

[glacial wind]

you know if you have arm strength issues a fully kitted out fx3 with 24-70 gm ii lens is about 1-1.5kg, would be good arm exercise for you long term @sacred elm

[sacred elm]

lol

[calm pulsar]

after that you can move to a custom electric guitar, mine is a little more than 3kg @sacred elm

[sacred elm]

[glacial wind]

yeah don't get distracted too early. You want at least 2-3 solid FE sony branded lenses to cover the full zoom range first

[crimson sky]

I can recommend going to keeb meetups

Carrying 8 boards at once makes my arms and back still hurt after 3 days

[calm pulsar]

he left a 💯 reaction, but I have a feeling that it was not sincere

I think he didnt even read it
maybe he already knows way more about lenses than you, sno

[glacial wind]

that's true, it's why I keep a hourly watch on the sony stock levels for him to increase his lens options even more

As of 4pm the 16mm f1.8 is still not in stock @sacred elm

[trail bane]

in case bro delete his msg

[prime orbit]

in case bro delete his msg

[chilly mural]

Changed the button.

[steel ibex]

No???

In case bro deletes his msg

[glacial wind]

Hrm I can’t help but notice fartcoin is up 250% this month. This is a sign of a good economy

[little glen]

Those buttons rattle, you gotta lube the switches

[chilly mural]

I'll replace the whole switch soon, it's getting worn out

[ionic breach]

obv

[glacial wind]

i'm scared to check what the return would have been if you bought into fartcoin in november

[ionic breach]

its a blue chip investment

[glacial wind]

ah just a mere 2500% return if you invested into fartcoin at launch

this is clearly a sign of great economic times

[ionic breach]

https://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=124660.0

god damn am i tempted

its so useless lmao but it is cool

https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2444206900?t=00h13m45s

[prime orbit]

Looks sick

HE or no?

[ionic breach]

hell nah

he never gets anything nice lmao

[glacial wind]

that looks very bigsly themed

[quasi hinge]

World is in between box 1 and 2

Standstill in LA port

Sorry for econ drop

Ive never seen anything like it aside from covid

[crimson sky]

does it have gas fees

[glacial wind]

not sure about gas but I read something about every transaction triggering a digital fart sound. very classy coin

[austere creek]

well thats what happens when you charge madeup taxes for made up reasons and then even charge customers a 100usd minimum import fee on any individual package (and apparently starting june 2nd its 200usd minimum)

[glossy pagoda]

👀

[glacial wind]

oh geon finally be selling wooting pcbs?

[fallen pecan]

the MX version just got pushed back a month and WOB are already advertising the HE version

[glacial wind]

pretty good pricing, saves on the big shipping cost

just post this screenshot every time people try to start a wooting vs venom debate lol. Geon himself explaining that both have different advantages and disadvantages

[ionic breach]

OH SHIT

the leak was real

[austere creek]

the wood was a hairdresser

yes

[glacial wind]

we've never asked calder who his hairdresser is on stream before

someone add that to the qna list

[ionic breach]

[glacial wind]

i always forget how absurdly bright the stock wooting is

lol he's shocked that it's already up to date

[ionic breach]

english

[austere creek]

time to pray theres no ghost inputs for any reason

[glacial wind]

no rattle on his stabs

[tawdry tree]

any pics or info on it?

[glacial wind]

that's good at least

[austere creek]

the english translation just gave up i guess

[glacial wind]

oh he's going to test out some of the akko switches

[austere creek]

hm yes

[ionic breach]

gateron getting strays

i love it

i mean well its true

[left depot]

damn my korean vocab has gone to shit can read chat, dont know what Im reading

[untold wigeon]

does anyone have a video comparing ttc pom vs the regular ttc magnetos?

[glacial wind]

there's one on wooting channel isn't there

[untold wigeon]

he going to sell them?

[glacial wind]

yeah geon will be stocking wooting locally

[untold wigeon]

as an vendor?

[untold wigeon]

will we able to buy it or korea only ?

[glacial wind]

no idea if it'll be on his international store, i'd assume only his korean naver store

[untold wigeon]

i might purchase the wooting from geon's web for cheaper shipping

[untold wigeon]

ah sad

[glacial wind]

where are you from? Shipping from korea isn't usually cheaper

[untold wigeon]

Indonesia

it's cheaper from geon rather than wooting from my experience

wooting can be 30+ usd

[untold wigeon]

befor extra cost

[glacial wind]

Geon will be just as much for a keyboard

[untold wigeon]

and geon can be $20

already extra cost

[untold wigeon]

this will be around 45 usd after extra cost

[glacial wind]

Geon ships similar provider to wooting

He uses dhl or similar

[untold wigeon]

ye but for asian countries is cheaper from geon 🙂

rather than wooting i guess

[glacial wind]

Nah its still super pricy

as soon as it leaves Korea the price climbs especially for keyboard weight items via dhl

Within Korea it’s dirt cheap though at $2 ship

[untold wigeon]

nah, yesterday i purchase a lot from geon (total 2,2kg because of leggera) cost around 24usd to Indonesia

no more extra cost from dhl😋

[glacial wind]

leggera is light just fyi

[untold wigeon]

but shipping to Indo from wooting only fedex and ups which are available

[untold wigeon]

i know

i purchased wooting module shipping 45 usd

[glacial wind]

i mean anyhow i severely doubt he's putting them on his global store or has the stock levels for that

[untold wigeon]

i'll be happy if geon sells wooting for asia's market😋 (not gonna happen 99%, but hoping it will)

[glacial wind]

he only tends to put his own stuff that he has big bulk on his global store

everything else is local store only

looks like he's impressed with the light bar features lol

[left depot]

is he looking for the RBG settings?

ah he found it

:D

[glacial wind]

i don't think he realizes his keyboard isn't connected since he turned the gamepad feature on and off

[left depot]

[glacial wind]

needs to reconnect it lol

oh he confirmed, it'll be korea only

not global store item

[untold wigeon]

okay then

wooting's web it is

[glacial wind]

he gives wooting and valorant a lot of credit for growing the keyboard space again he says

[peak jungle]

wooting web has stopped working for me once i installed the app

and it puts me off

web is so much stable that the app

[austere creek]

idk how that would be connected.

there nothing stopping you from using both at the same time

[peak jungle]

web

app

[glossy pagoda]

Who wants to give me a recap of GEON's presentation? Been in meetings and haven't been able to watch 😅

[austere creek]

just click on add device

might be the identifier changed cause of gamepad changes or some other (prob os related) change

[glacial wind]

he didn't do much, just unboxed the 60he and 80he and gave pricing in korea. He likes the software and clean rgb features and talked about how wooting is popular with korean valorant pros. Said he credits wooting as a good company that cause a new growth of the magnetic keyboard space in korea

[wispy fable]

i'll wait for wooting 60he v2 x geonworks

let's just imagine that happens

[wispy fable]

pcb like venom, with rgb, then it has a db support + wootility software

[tawdry tree]

a venom rgb is coming right?

[glacial wind]

he was just responding to a guy who keeps asking for venom rgb. Don't think he's ever said he'd make one

said it'd be cool to have an rgb venom

[tawdry tree]

oh

[austere creek]

just write venom with sharpie on a wooting pcb

[thorn zealot]

All i gotta say is

That I’m excited to play silksong

[halcyon flax]

Anyone use ceramic keycaps on zinc 80he can give me a sound test?

[calm pulsar]

hell yeah

(im miserable in trial of fool rn)

[glossy pagoda]

Thanks

[untold wigeon]

Meet my new Wooting 60he+

[thorn zealot]

U started playin?

[calm pulsar]

I got 98% completion

[thorn zealot]

I see

I’m almost done everything

[little glen]

Turning it into a fighting game controller?

[untold wigeon]

Kind of! I needed an accessibility controller that'd let me play driving games using my palms. Turns out there aren't any good analog devices like that out there, so modding a Wooting keyboard was the simplest solution I could come up with.

[little glen]

Very cool

[calm pulsar]

wow thats sick

[fleet shoal]

Hi guys, i have the 80he here. i ordered it with the plastic case. it feels really bad. i m interested in the KDBFans GT80. Do anyone of you have this case?

[untold wigeon]

Just this + printed plastic parts

[tropic urchin]

GT80 is pretty fire, 100% recommend esp if you like modding your keeb

[tidal frigate]

Bro made wooting into hitbox

[thorn zealot]

If ur still struggling use nail arts

[fleet shoal]

yeah, i like. i have the 60he here too. i put it in the Tofu Redux with brassweight. It feels more premium and it's heavy. the 80he in this plasic feels really bad.
Problem? i have to order it from kdb directly. I m in germany, so i have to pay 24€ shipping an 29€ taxes. i will cost me 198€... only the case

[calm pulsar]

I read smth about using slash to kill flying targets, but Im not sure how to make it bigger

[tropic urchin]

I think mine was like $130 ish with $30 shipping, but 100% worth it to upgrade from plastic @fleet shoal

[little glen]

Just buy some more stuff so paying that shipping doesnt feel so bad

I do that every time i order from kbd to germany

[tropic urchin]

I got the silver and it’s perfect

[thorn zealot]

U can use mark of pride

[little glen]

Kinda wish i got silver

I have gray and its great but i think silver would have been better

[calm pulsar]

oh so it works on nail arts as well

[thorn zealot]

Yeah I’m like 95% sure

I don’t use mark of pride (imo it’s a bit overrated

[calm pulsar]

im using it rn for the flower quest, just to be sure lol

[thorn zealot]

Have fun

[calm pulsar]

done

[thorn zealot]

Nice

Only thing I’m missing is all bindings in all the pantheons

[calm pulsar]

what do they do? I started these doors but without any bindings yet
do they increase the difficulty?

[thorn zealot]

Yeah they either lower nail dmg to 13, no charms, only 4 masks, and only 1/3 of ur soul

[fleet shoal]

yeah, it says i have to order for 500$, than it will be free shipping 😄
Do you live in germany?

[little glen]

Ye

[fleet shoal]

My Tofu ist in dark grey looks really great. will order the gt in the same colour

[little glen]

I dont go for the free shipping, i just get random other stuff so paying the shipping fee feels less bad

[calm pulsar]

hmm so ideally I might start grinding with all bindings and finish with them faster this way

[thorn zealot]

Entire radiant hall of gods is easier than all bindings pantheon 5

[fleet shoal]

How long did you wait for the case? did you order it from kdb directly ?

[little glen]

https://discord.com/channels/167181566978555904/1342211699234832485

I got the gray one too if you want to take a look

[thorn zealot]

If u want to smash ur head against the wall then yes

[little glen]

Yeah i ordered directly but mine was a pre order so my timeline on it will not be the same for you

[calm pulsar]

but if I do one binding at a run I can do 4 runs to cover all bindings eventually?

[calm pulsar]

yeah never even done that yet, I guess im going to be dying a lot

[thorn zealot]

Yeah but u get the “medal” if u do it all at once

Not individually

[fleet shoal]

ok. i bought my tofu from maxgaming. but they don't have it on stock now. i have to wait. there it costs 155€. ist ok.
Your Sound ist amazing. Which switches do you use finally?

[calm pulsar]

i'll see how I do

maybe I'll do all endings and be done for a while lol

[thorn zealot]

Imo radiant markoth was the most annoying one

U will see why

[calm pulsar]

iirc even his normal form was annoying lol

[little glen]

The files for the sound test say what switch it is. The last sound test i posted is a frankenswitch (mix of 2 or more switches) using duhuk core he bottom and geon raw he top and stem

It‘s really good but i would not recommend it tbh cause its a lot of work and cost

When you can instead get owlabs ti he and get a sound that is almost as good for half the price

With maybe even better stability

[fleet shoal]

ok. i heard of the owlabs ti he.
will look for it. Thank you.

[thorn zealot]

The one with the floor was fine for me

[calm pulsar]

oh god

[thorn zealot]

It’s when the floor is gone is when I started tweakin

[calm pulsar]

☠️

[wispy fable]

155€?

for a tofu 2.0 or redux?

wait if it's 155 then it's a 2.0 right?

[thorn zealot]

It’s not bad after doing it like over 150 times

[fleet shoal]

No, not the Tofu. ist the KDBFans GT-80.

[wispy fable]

i see

[untold wigeon]

so im assuming by changing switches to 3.4mm travel distance you would need to change the stabilizers to a 3.4 mm ?

[cyan lark]

4.6mm

Or add some stem spacers

[tawdry tree]

Not necessarily, it depends mostly on the keycaps you use. If they’re of decent quality, you won’t have an issue using 3.4mm switches with 4mm stabs.

[untold wigeon]

ah okay, i guess stem spacers would be easier, would they fit inside the ttc pom ? and i guess im looking for 0.6mm spacers?

[tawdry tree]

You’d place the stem spacers on the stabilizer stems.

[cyan lark]

Geonworks makes 0.4mm and 0.5mm. 0.5 is fine, either is probably close enough.

[untold wigeon]

ohh okay makes sense

[cyan lark]

And yeah they work fine w/ TTCs

[untold wigeon]

wait on the switches themselves or on the stem ?

[tawdry tree]

Did you encounter an issue or just asking to be sure?

[tawdry tree]

Stab stems.

https://geon.works/products/geon-stem-spacer

[untold wigeon]

this is kinda my issue

the wobbling

so spacers on the stems (the black part) would fix it?

[nimble phoenix]

are the default 80he switches good enough or should i change them?

[cyan lark]

It should help if not fix it, yes

[untold wigeon]

alright tysm

[tropic urchin]

Depends on what you want/goal of your keyboard, if you like how they sound/feel they’re fine, but there’s many better switches out there

[nimble phoenix]

like?

[tall hollow]

90% of the time they're just fine

They aren't exceptional, but they're just fine!

Like your keyboard will still work as a keyboard with all wooting's advertised functions.

[tall hollow]

I wonder if I can 3D print these

Out of something like PLA or TPU

Rather than, ugh, spend money.

[tawdry tree]

You can

[tall hollow]

I forgot but how thick do these need to be for 3.5-3.6mm switches?

like 0.4-0.5mm thick?

[tawdry tree]

yeah

[tall hollow]

Yeah makes sense

I'll CAD up a quickie in Onshape and print it out on my X1C later today.

[tropic urchin]

If you want the best cheap switches, owlab TI HE, if you want a less clacky switch probably stick with Lekker v2s, if you don’t care about price and want best stability TTC POMs etc

[tall hollow]

Cauz I've been having some minor stab issues ever since I swapped to TTC KOMs

and never swapped to long pole stabs

[tawdry tree]

Lmk how it goes

[tall hollow]

Aye!

[half hill]

No I don’t really understand, if I hold a then and then press d while holding a, what happens? Am I doing something wrong

[fallen pecan]

why are you using snap tap in valo

[glacial wind]

it cleans up overlapped inputs a tad if you rush inputs a bit at times. You shouldn't be changing how you input your strafes though - there's no need to do that hold a and tap d timing stuff

[sacred elm]

i sent you a video watch it

[half hill]

I did I didn’t understand what am I supposed to do in val TvT

[glacial wind]

nothing

that's what you're supposed to do. Don't change how you input your strafe at all

[half hill]

Deadzoning

[peak breach]

almost may where the owlabs collab?

[glacial wind]

just play like normal, deadzone like normal the same way before you had socd on

there isn't a crazy change in playstyle you need to do with socd in valorant - it doesn't have that effect on the game

[half hill]

I mean yeah true

[distant crag]

rapid trigger is more important in valo imo.

[half hill]

But what I wanted to know was let’s say I press a then press d snap tap completely cancels a and u move right instead of left, how does rappy snappy work?

[half hill]

Both the keyboards have that

[glacial wind]

rappy snappy is just a less efficient form of socd in terms of usage in valorant

there's no point having it on

just use socd

[distant crag]

i know. im just saying rapid trigger is more important. SOCD just lets you strafe A & D faster. without de-actuating the other key.

[half hill]

Fair enough

Thank you for your time guys

[quasi hinge]

For anyone interested

Sneks have looser tolerances ever so slightly

You can see it comparing vs magneto

Physically and in key wobble

[sacred elm]

flux clears

[glacial wind]

do you have it in person now?

[quasi hinge]

There is more of a gap

[quasi hinge]

Yes

[half hill]

Wait are those two different things TvT

[tropic urchin]

If snakes have looser tolerances who got scammed sneks or flux

[half hill]

I am so retarded ngl

[tropic urchin]

Looks like both 🥀

[sacred elm]

wobble = bad

[quasi hinge]

Its a different design albeit small

You can literally see more of a gap

[sacred elm]

Bro bought lekker v2s 🥀

jk

[quasi hinge]

I just spent 1.5 hours testing switches

[quasi hinge]

Both on keeb and in hand lol

[sacred elm]

(now you should say that we bought geon raptors instead of fluxes)

[quasi hinge]

Its OC

[peak breach]

both

if you dont have poms you got scammed

[quasi hinge]

I will consider Ds Flux 2.0 after rigorous testing

[glacial wind]

can you actually blind feel the difference though?

because other folks couldn't

[tropic urchin]

Already have POMs, wanted something different albeit given their supposed QC issues I’ve had 0 issues so /shrug

[quasi hinge]

Im really nitpicking

I tried on various keys

[glacial wind]

honestly I think you've just gone hyper analysing into something that probably no one would be able to tell or know and could easily decide it's the reverse

[peak breach]

i meant people in general not specifically you

[quasi hinge]

And moved my hands on different arrangements

[quasi hinge]

Totally

[tropic urchin]

In that regard I agree

[quasi hinge]

But there is a diff

[glacial wind]

well yeah there has to be a difference because the rail is in a different spot

i wouldn't say that means it's wobbler or not just from that though

[tropic urchin]

Flux feel is just so good, it’s a shame they didn’t tighten everything up beforehand

[peak breach]

im gonna continue waiting till the new switch hype calms down

[quasi hinge]

Its noticeable enough but I might not notice it if I wasnt told

[glacial wind]

i think unless we actually have someone measuring stuff there's not much to conclude if it takes 90 mins to analyse differences

[quasi hinge]

True

[distant crag]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=usp-NEuBWWE 😂

[glacial wind]

because it sounds like it's just feel tested which gains us nothing. It could easily be you feeling the difference because you were told it exists and now you're looking for it specifically

[quasi hinge]

Confirmation bias

[glacial wind]

migss keyboard ranking is as legit as his valorant rank (which was boosted in 5 mans)

he's just making a tier list because it's easy clicks and money

[tropic urchin]

(Shocking)

[glacial wind]

none of his reviews use any analytical data of any sort and it's just him playing with it and randomly deciding how he feels based on thin air

[sacred elm]

[fallen pecan]

@quasi hinge just get one of these and you'll be certain

[quasi hinge]

How much

[fallen pecan]

1500 usd last i checked

[chilly mural]

wheres wooting

[distant crag]

where tiger lite gaming

[glacial wind]

won't be high. Miggs believes in any specs given to him by manus

[sacred elm]

oh he will buy dont worry

™️ 💀 💀 💀

[glacial wind]

so all the keyboards ranking at the top will just be whatever looks nice and claims the best specs basically

[sacred elm]

2025

[quasi hinge]

If its called flux ill buy

[tawdry tree]

ridiculous. Woot should make one

[chilly mural]

oh. Im blind

[glacial wind]

i think it'd be funnier to do a parady video of his keyboard ranking

[quasi hinge]

Free software!

[hasty trellis]

Me still waiting for this

[quasi hinge]

I may just change them all to sneks and then run them for a week

[tidal frigate]

Look i tried fixing miggs

[glacial wind]

"this is the top 10 keyboards of 2025 (so far)" - then you show the keyboards you were sent for free in the order you reviewed them sorted by how much he made profit for selling each after the review

[tawdry tree]

it’s annoying gauss meters that are just on a PCB are so rare

saw one on taobao but no way to mount that either

[fallen pecan]

the reviewer uses a custom cut acrylic base for switch testing anyway

[tawdry tree]

yeah

[quasi hinge]

I mean I have a random stuff like a geiger counter

[tawdry tree]

that’s the thing that makes it annoying

gauss meters aren’t that expensive

[fallen pecan]

i wonder what mioni and eyejoker use for their testing

[tawdry tree]

accurate enough ones for switch testing

[tawdry tree]

neither use a setup like that iirc

just a board

[fallen pecan]

or they plug it into a hm80 and write down the values

[tawdry tree]

something like that

I honestly don’t think gauss meters reflect wobble well

cause the sensors most use have like a bigger range

“higher fov” 😭

[polar sluice]

• I’m swapping switches on a wooting 2he - I’ve taken the top plate off the pcb to remove old switches, am I better off putting the top plate back on the pcb to install new ones? Or should I install them straight into the top plate and then connect to pcb?

[tawdry tree]

no clue what the word for it is

[quasi hinge]

After fukushima I went around yoyogi park deciding if I would continue to visit Japan

[tawdry tree]

assemble first

I wouldn’t recommend taking the 2HE apart to change switches

the screws can get loose after opening it once

[fallen pecan]

good enough for surface level testing, the values don't range too much either way

[tawdry tree]

cause they go directly into the plastic (rather than having threaded inserts).

[glacial wind]

If switches are setting off a Geiger counter there may be bigger issues

[quasi hinge]

Nah, no reading haha

Zero

[sacred elm]

where flux

no flux bad list

[quasi hinge]

Surprisingly marble gives off radiation

[fallen pecan]

he doesnt test individual switch releases, only new switches if they're in a new board

[safe stag]

do you have this list but translated ?

[fallen pecan]

nope

you just need to know ttc is 9 of the top 10

kailh gods #10

[sacred elm]

lekker

[fallen pecan]

that's v1 i believe

[tawdry tree]

how the fuck

raptor x lekkers

that low

brother

[sacred elm]

bad magnet

[glacial wind]

Yeah likely older magnet tolerances

[tawdry tree]

nah

[quasi hinge]

Sneks not there I suppose

[tawdry tree]

all this shit is sus af

there is something

not right

[steel ibex]

You should go around and just shove it at random household objects and see what gives off the most radiation

[sacred elm]

you expect raptor frankenswitch to be top performer or what

magnets are from 2020

[quasi hinge]

I did, the only thing was at my buddy’s house, his marble tiles were just under the safety limit

[safe stag]

did they burned the magnets before testing lekker

[glacial wind]

The frankenswitch isn’t even box stem either

[sacred elm]

ofc it will be below every switch

[kind helm]

whats the value?

[glacial wind]

Of course non box stem will suffer in this specific testing

[tawdry tree]

top fucking top performer but at least above the OKT stuff

black knights too

[jade storm]

that's pretty fucking dope

[tawdry tree]

nah

[steel ibex]

At least it’s under

[tawdry tree]

I’m think

because the magnet is closer to the sensor

it isn’t linear

so the closer the magnet is the more it ranges

probably because those are full travel switches, their numbers are exaggerated

has to be

[fallen pecan]

here's the data if you wanna dig

[glacial wind]

Full travel has always had slightly higher flux just due to more movement with a longer stem

[tawdry tree]

cause there is no world in which stem swapped raptors score lower than KS-20Us

[fallen pecan]

full dataset here: https://www.kdocs.cn/l/cm7TXhkobT9o

[tawdry tree]

he tests 5 different switches?

of each type

[fallen pecan]

5 random ones

[kind helm]

no raws or tee hee

[fallen pecan]

might get to see it if a retail board releases with teehees stock

raws no chance

[kind helm]

not sure how likely that is since owlab is more keyboard enjoyer thing rather than prebuilt gamer thing

those companies probably have deals with ttc at this point since their switches show good results

[fallen pecan]

i read somewhere that a board is planning on releasing with teehees stock

but i could be wrong

[kind helm]

[half hill]

Ok so basically snap tap is exactly like socd where when u press d and move right and then press a while holding d it moves left
@tawdry tree Wdym by it takes more skill dawg😭

[marsh saffron]

Snap tap is socd

[tawdry tree]

reread my message

[sacred elm]

man, snap tap is socd

[tawdry tree]

Rappy Snappy

[sacred elm]

please

[tawdry tree]

takes more skill

thought u were asking about that cause socd and snappy tappy is the same

[half hill]

I’m sorry

[sacred elm]

socd (snappy tappy) is wootings implementation

[chilly mural]

nice if true

[marsh saffron]

Rappy snappy = depth based socd, snappy tappy is last input priority socd

[half hill]

What’s snappy tappy now TvT

[marsh saffron]

@half hill

[half hill]

Oh oh

I’m sorry TvT

[fallen pecan]

snap tap = vanilla, rappy snappy = chocolate

[half hill]

I like vanilla

Tastes better

[half hill]

So snappy tappy is basically exactly like snap tap but rappy snappy is ass

Got it

[tawdry tree]

I might be crazy but if I understand it correctly, measuring wobble like this is actually meaningless unless you’re comparing two switches with the exact same magnet position and total travel which is pretty much impossible.

Measuring it with a keyboard is probably more accurate because HE boards linearize it

(not sure how accurate that is but there are quite a few boards that score high on the [repeatable] accuracy)

Gauss meters don’t linearize

🤯🤯🤯

[polar sluice]

Anyone know if this Is this the right orientation for Owlab Ti He’s? I’ve put them in the same way the Lekkers were in, but someone’s video has them the other way around 😭
thank u

[tawdry tree]

It is yeah

[sacred elm]

correct

[chilly mural]

yesh

[tawdry tree]

The light diffuser above the LED 👍

[polar sluice]

Ok thanks guys

[sacred elm]

from lekker v1 to owlabs😳

[kind helm]

did bro become a tech channel?!

[sacred elm]

thats gonna be some nice upgrade

[marsh saffron]

Rappy snappy isn't exactly ass it's just a different form of socd

[tawdry tree]

rappy snappy takes a lot of skill to reach half of what snappy tappy can do

[polar sluice]

ordered them directly after you recommended them to me 2 weeks ago 🙂‍↕️ first time opening up a keyboard so hopefully all works out

[sacred elm]

opening it wasnt even necessary

you could just pull switches without disassembly

[polar sluice]

I broke a bunch of the tabs on the lekkers using some shit tool, will that have killed the switch in terms of usability without rattle?

[kind helm]

[sacred elm]

they are still usable

[snow yarrow]

Watched my first miggs review yesterday, it was the gt60 pro one

Bro proceeded to read all the marketing picture sentences, glazing the ugly ass case, saying the rubys sound very creamy and after testing the board ingame, he said it didnt hold him back whatsoever

Thats when i knew that that was the first and last migss review i watched

[distant crag]

qk x atk TKL he will have teehees stock switch

also the neo65 he

[cyan lark]

Whoa this is my first time seeing the GT60 case. That thing fell right outta the ugly tree and hit every branch on the way down.

[empty orbit]

with wooting 60he to be risk free should i lube just the plastic tips of the switches, scared to do anything fuether im not exactly a keyboard master

[glacial wind]

You honestly don’t need to lube anything if you’re worried

[empty orbit]

well it sounds rattly now after year of use

[polar girder]

If you mean what I think you mean, don’t do that

[glacial wind]

I’d personally just use opportunity to buy newer, better switches with a good factory lube job

[sacred elm]

get other switches instead

lekkers are definition of rattle

[empty orbit]

alright thanks ill look into it

[sacred elm]

would recommend owlab ti hes

they cost 35$ for 70pc

[snow yarrow]

Ok, i just checked and can confirm that @quasi hinge is not tripping

Theres a quite noticable amount of more wobble on the white sneks, top and bottom. You can actually hear a little rattle when moving the sneks around, which is not present on wooting poms

NEW SWITCH OF THE WEEK DROPPED BOYS

SNEK STEM + REST OF WOOTING POMS

[chilly mural]

$2 ahh switches

[little glen]

still better than flux

[sacred elm]

no

[glacial wind]

did you lube the snakes?

[snow yarrow]

Not yet, i was about to ask if thats why they rattle. My wooting poms are hand lubed

[glacial wind]

yeah then that's normal so far

wooting poms rattle without lube too

all the ttc switches have a decent amount of rattle without hand lube since there's no factory lube

i have some samples of ttc pom hand lubed vs ttc rgb non lubed before and the difference in rattle is quite big

[snow yarrow]

This really seems to be the case

You heard it guys, lube your damn ttc x wooting switches, its worth the trouble

[snow yarrow]

While youre at it, might wanna get a fresh sony lens too for some quality pictures

[sacred elm]

oh no

what have you done sno

[glacial wind]

At least buy the upcoming lumix cinema cam if you aren’t going to buy a Sony

[storm axle]

whats the difference between the poms and the owlabs or is it just preference?

[glacial wind]

You need some standards shafie

[glacial wind]

Totally different switch types

Poms are box stems

Owlabs are more like traditional style switches with regular stem

But either way still preference at end of the day

[tropic urchin]

Get some standards, lekker v1 clears

[sacred elm]

^

[tropic urchin]

Imagine not combining lekker switches with your Wooting

Disgusting

[sacred elm]

not very tasty imo

[glossy pagoda]

To battle we ride!

[stray tiger]

On the NK twitch stream Mike just said they are looking at a Sloth r2 or small batch release. So pumped for that

[empty orbit]

why these over the geon raw HE? basically same price just curious

[sacred elm]

they can be considered as improved geon raws

with tighter tolerances and cleaner sound

[cyan lark]

And raws have that little bit of sticking at the top

[sacred elm]

Yea

[cyan lark]

As well as their tendency to spontaneously rapidly disassemble themselves

[stray tiger]

What he said. They are significantly improved raw's. Way better sound, way tighter tolerances, way smoother feel.

[cyan lark]

AFAICT not having used them yet the only regression on the owlabs is the color for RGB maxxers

[stray tiger]

Yeah if the TI's has been colorless and full travel, I'd call them my end game switch

I dont use end game loosely since its mainly a myth

Now who wants 90 sneks freshly lubed

[kind helm]

price

same switch 2 dolla is dog shit 1 dolla is meh 0.5 cent is amazing

[quasi hinge]

Free but I want it to go to someone who would treasure them and is in need

[crimson sky]

is it just housing wobble?

[kind helm]

i would want to try them on my tofu 2.0 hehe

[crimson sky]

man the switch companies are just milking the HE people

[quasi hinge]

Very minor comparable to magnetos

[crimson sky]

meanwhile I just buy the god knows how manyth retool of the same switch from 1982

[quasi hinge]

Since I have magnetos they are a downgrade

But only so slightly

Plus they have great magenets

[glacial wind]

keep in mind he realized his snakes weren't lubed after

so can pretty much cancel out that whole thing

[quasi hinge]

Huh?

Both are lubed

[stray tiger]

Go to bed!

[glacial wind]

i mean the guy you're replying to lol

his snakes weren't lubed, his poms were

[quasi hinge]

Both are lubed

[glacial wind]

after i finish this video on why wolverine would beat spiderman in a fight

[cyan lark]

50g is what they call heavy, vs 40g

damn so i am working out my fingers

[quasi hinge]

90 lubed ttc pom sneks

But likely cant send to us looool

[cyan lark]

Yeah dude downright studly fingies

[snow yarrow]

Ye he meant me I think hes hinting at the fact that you might be overreacting

[kind helm]

reminds me of this

[quasi hinge]

I vibed totally with what you wrote

Exactly what you described

[cyan lark]

Alright, I think I'll do this. Thinking about switching back to my GMK Metropolis caps while I'm at it

[quasi hinge]

Ever so slightly enough for constant notice

[sacred elm]

😭

[glacial wind]

you have 2 very different things though

[snow yarrow]

But why not atleast put the snek stem in your poms? @quasi hinge

[glacial wind]

he's talking about the sound rattle

you're talking about physical movement

[quasi hinge]

Tried it, wobbled worse

[snow yarrow]

Oh hell nah 😭

[quasi hinge]

100%

[snow yarrow]

Did you get the ogs?

[quasi hinge]

Yup

A167890

[sacred elm]

dont worry dtmpd, soon you will receive fluxes

[snow yarrow]

You didnt get the cute box either, im a little disappointed now 😭

Where is my cute snek box ttc

[quasi hinge]

Ill try flux 2.0 after rigorous testing

[glacial wind]

that was only the limited launch edition with the freebies

[kind helm]

meaning shaking your finga on the key press

[quasi hinge]

Meaning ill let others pay 200$ to be guinea pigs

I got hit with sneks lol

[glacial wind]

I’m still pretty sure if you did a random jumble with keycap on and wiggled the keys without sound testing you couldn’t guess which was snake vs pom

[quasi hinge]

My mistake was assuming sneks would be same

[kind helm]

whats the expression, never be the first guy to eat the crab or something?

[quasi hinge]

Hard lesson

[quasi hinge]

I dunno but yeah something like that

“Fool me once uhhhh you’re never gonna fool me again”

[quasi hinge]

Wise man once said

[quasi hinge]

They do have a plus

They are smoother

Likely because box stem size was reduced

Ever so slightly

And they sound more like fluxs

[snow yarrow]

Dont panic yet guys

I will be checking this mans claims with my highly accurate digital caliper, which i definitely did not get from aliexpress

[kind helm]

its still somewhat fcked since you can press down at a angle

[quasi hinge]

Mine are OG poms, magneto style

[kind helm]

but better than just hand for sure

[polar girder]

Whatever bro

You prefer the POM or why get rid of snek?

[quasi hinge]

“Huuuuuge, it will be amazing, the greatest tariffs the world has ever seen. Nobody has seen this before, great, what can I say, just amazing”

[quasi hinge]

I only have one keeb

[kind helm]

it is kinda amazing, i did not expect it would cause problem globally

[quasi hinge]

Im not going to be flipping switches lol

I find what I like and stick to it

[kind helm]

but i guess we us people be buying shit too much

[quasi hinge]

If Flux 2.0 comes out and is better im in

[kind helm]

flux 2.0 double the price of flux 4 dolla per switch

then 100%+ with tariff

8 dolla switch!

[quasi hinge]

Thankfully I dont feel the tariffs yet

And im not in the us

I should be sleeping 💀

GG

[kind helm]

sleep is for the weak

said the bald guy

[quasi hinge]

GG

[quasi hinge]

Im referring to myself in case anyone is confused

[snow yarrow]

According to my highly accurate measuring instrument, the snek stem has the same dimensions as the wooting poms, or the difference is sub 0.1mm

[quasi hinge]

Maybe its the housing

[snow yarrow]

Which doesnt mean much to you @quasi hinge, since you have og poms

[quasi hinge]

The mystery deepens

[tropic urchin]

PH spiked the drinking water didn’t they

[kind helm]

isnt og pom the same as wooting pom with only color difference

even the lube is the same

[quasi hinge]

I have both, me and my “quant” feel it

[snow yarrow]

The test was to check if snek stem would be more wobbly in wooting housing

[quasi hinge]

Actually have an old distiller to avoid microplastics and dirty water etc

[tropic urchin]

OG Pom has lighter spring

[kind helm]

yea but that doesnt change the wobble :3 i feel like if they bother with improving the mold they would fix the lube first

[quasi hinge]

And longer?

[tropic urchin]

I didnt read that far up

aint got time for dat

[snow yarrow]

I think so too, but maybe the wooting ones have slightly improved tolerances, since they are newer

[kind helm]

old ass meme

that music was lowkey

[austere creek]

also tip: the flat sides of the jaws are for measuring diameters of things

[quasi hinge]

Didnt try putting og stems in sneks tho

[kind helm]

i personally dont believe hehe

[quasi hinge]

Only snek stems in og

[austere creek]

the knife tips are for hole/slot distances

[kind helm]

wait i thought the tool was for testing wobble not measuring size

[quasi hinge]

Someone is gna need to do a PhD in measuring wobble, flux, variance whatever lol

[polar girder]

But why POM over Snek?

[kind helm]

i saw a vid on bilibili about someone using some cheap tool to test wobble, but i dont remember what exactly he was using, but basically he has a tool with a pole that can be set to a precise length. and the press with the pole checks if the precision is good

[polar girder]

I thought Snek was upgrade?

[quasi hinge]

Less physical wobble (IMO & my ‘quant’)

[quasi hinge]

Magnet upgrade but that doesnt matter as it is under wooting tolerances

I wanted it for looks as silver cf looks like snake skin and wanted to get rid of the red dots

[analog ginkgo]

how do i get the ihaswooting role

[kind helm]

sync through wooting's site

[analog ginkgo]

ah ty

[kind helm]

there is a vid by wooting on youtube about that i think

[kind helm]

snake beneath the alien

aliens are snakes

[polar girder]

W POMs

[cyan lark]

New old look. These Ti's seem great, y'all weren't wrong. Very stable, sound very nice. Not quite as stable as KoMs it seems, but extremely close to the point of pedanticism.

[quasi hinge]

Nah, not from the lore

[kind helm]

silva looks like biege under the sunlight, kinda cool

[snow yarrow]

So, snek stem in woot pom housing feels same stability wise @quasi hinge, atleast i cant feel a difference

[kind helm]

i can respect the mix and match, imagine if you have this though

but surly wooting will update at some point

at some point

[quasi hinge]

Snek stem in magneto feels worse than snek itself

Wanted best of both worlds

Should have tried magneto in snek

[snow yarrow]

Could go full schizo with snek stem, magneto spring and woot housing

[quasi hinge]

Looks great, did you paint it or is that raw

[quasi hinge]

Would they fit?

[kind helm]

👀 btw are those caps that you tongue type with?

ye

spring wise idk i dont even remember which is which for the two kinds of pom

[quasi hinge]

Tried the pom snakes

[kind helm]

[cyan lark]

A full basket of snakes, or just a handful?

[quasi hinge]

👆

Long story short is that they feel more wobbly

[cyan lark]

Oh jeez

That's criminal, I'm sorry

[quasi hinge]

But im causing anarchy but stating this

People protest without having the same switches

[snow yarrow]

Couldn't tell you about the spring, but the rest would fit

I'll compare the lubed sneks with wooting later, i cba lubing rn

[cyan lark]

The only opinions that actually matter are first-hand

[glacial wind]

What does @snow yarrow think though. Because so far he hasn’t mentioned the wobble stuff

as far as the wobble goes can you notice a difference? Ignoring the non lubed sound

[quasi hinge]

Magnetos and wooting poms are the same?

Dimension/per wise?

[glacial wind]

Yeah they’re the exact same mold

For the pom versions anyway

And rgb for that matter

[cyan lark]

Actually I take it back, there's definitely noticeable wobble on the Ti's on bottom out, but for the price it's extremely good, and beats everything I've tried except KoMs (haven't tried fluxes)

[quasi hinge]

Fluxes have qc issues if you havent heard

[cyan lark]

Noticeable* if I'm looking at it/testing it, don't feel it wobbling around while typing or anything

[cyan lark]

I heard that there was QC issues, didn't hear what kind

[cyan lark]

Ah right saw folks talking about flux's flux

That's a shame about the legs

[quasi hinge]

Its definitely fluxed up

[kind helm]

i remember physical wobble wise it aint great either

[cyan lark]

And tolerances, kinda wild at that price point to have these kinds of problems

[snow yarrow]

I put in some in-ears so i dont hear the sound, now they seem identical

And im trying my best to channel every single placebo cell in my body

[kind helm]

the price probably comes from the fancy design rather that itself actually being worth 2 dolla

the way i see it :3

[cyan lark]

Sure but I thought the whole point of the fancy design was to improve stability

[sacred elm]

those are kind of issues you will never notice on wooting, but yea there are some switches with stronger magnet ig. ive never noticed and varedis either

[glacial wind]

Yeah that’s the thing. I’m fairly sure they’re the same wobble because no one else has mentioned a wobble difference except asdasmos and he only noticed it after inspecting for 90 mins after his luber told him it might be different

[quasi hinge]

2 v 1 so far

[snow yarrow]

But hearing the rattle sound definitely made it feel worse to me lmao, was a good idea to try to ignore the sound

[glacial wind]

and all the Chinese reviews didn’t notice any wobble difference either comparing them next to poms and rgb

[quasi hinge]

Maybe they pay deference to the almighty zodiac

[kind helm]

surly not the first time people try something new and did not work out perfectly as expected

[sacred elm]

that rattle happens even with lubed poms because of square stem, it moves slightly and you can hear it. its normal, but doesnt mean that its wobbly or anything

[quasi hinge]

Not exactly like that

I wish I could send you 3 of each

[analog ginkgo]

how do i contact support

[snow yarrow]

Yes, but its much worse unlubed, hearing that sound again digested me
Disgusted*

[quasi hinge]

I can try full sneks but I did half and could feel it

[tawdry tree]

those plastic calipers are fine. most cheap calipers are. put the thing you’re measuring as close to the top as possible though (the flat edges of the jaw rather than the tips).

[glacial wind]

Like I tried to watch the video you sent too, but several watches and I see no difference between them either

[cyan lark]

Have you tried googling "wooting support"?

[analog ginkgo]

tbf, no i havent 😭

[tawdry tree]

..

[cyan lark]

Try it!

[analog ginkgo]

I was seeing, if it was like the kbd discord where you can msg them on discord tbf

[kind helm]

imagine using google in 2025

[quasi hinge]

At first I thought it was wrong

Placebo

[kind helm]

wooting still old fansion way with email and ticket and stuff

[quasi hinge]

But switch after switch

Half the board

[sacred elm]

yeah lol, they rattle so much while dry

[glacial wind]

Like the easiest way is to just do a blind test. Mix up poms and snakes and randomly put them into the board with keycap on

[quasi hinge]

Its enough to notice for me

[cyan lark]

True, duckduckgo on top 🙂

[glacial wind]

Then try to guess which is which without the sound

[analog ginkgo]

okok

[glacial wind]

If you can guess 10/10 or close then maybe you really can notice some difference

Have someone else put them in if you need to really randomize it

Then there’s no placebo or confirmation bias telling you that one switch is wobbler

and if you can still feel the difference and guess right then you know there’s really a difference

[quasi hinge]

Brave Search?

I've noticed the same, whenever I switch (ha) it up, I tend to have a burst of really high typing speeds. I dunno, maybe it's the change that makes you think more carefully about how you're typing.

i feel like i just get excited hearing something different than the board i am used to

Wait I was just given some power...

[kind helm]

ideas slowly slip away from your brain as we speak

[plush ermine]

would it be possible to spot correct a piece of my tofu60 redux case? it chipped slightly

[snow yarrow]

Ive been thinking, could the difference i felt also be due to the heavier spring keeping the stems slightly more stable or am i completely off the deep end now @glacial wind

[glacial wind]

I mean that’s possible too, heavier springs do push back more firmly and we’re talking such tiny amounts of movement and force

[kind helm]

i think that makes sense too, that was why i tried and switched to 50g for all my boards. feel a tiny bit smoother and adjusted to heavier spring pretty easily.

(but the difference is so smo can just be cope)

[sacred elm]

50g best

[knotty iron]

got my Tofu60 black ano and acryllic

and some other stuff ffrom KBDfans

[kind helm]

redux?

[snow yarrow]

If theres one conclusion to be made today, its that unlubed box stem rattle is absolutely no joke

[sacred elm]

[polar girder]

Unlubed? What are we? Troglodytes?

Officially, I’ve now convinced 4 people to make a custom magnetic build with POMs.

[polar girder]

Pom and what?

I love franken

I’m aroused

[cyan lark]

It's so thick and beautiful

Don't need a wrist rest

[trail bane]

2 guys are buying 80he, one already got holy 60he and last one still thinking about buying venom60

[polar girder]

Oh gotcha

Nice

KOM POM Prophet

[trail bane]

For me, that’s also a significant advantage, since I’ll be able to try out some of them in real life.

[trail bane]

Former First and Last Inquisitor of holy HE POM church*

[polar girder]

So by KOM POM collector you mean convert 70 friends to POM and steal one switch from each one until your build is complete?

[trail bane]

That certainly wasn’t part of my plan, but if one of my friends buys Wooting POMs, I’ll be able to take a couple for my collection, since it’s not worth buying them myself

[polar girder]

lol nice

[fringe quarry]

[cyan lark]
