[polar girder]

Lots of keycaps in the world lol

[visual grotto]

kinda scared if it dont fir

[polar girder]

Profile, material or feature choice?

[visual grotto]

fit

moneys tight rn :>

[polar girder]

Any MX stem keycap will fit

Most profiles will work

Just don’t buy some weird Topre thing and you probably fine

[marsh saffron]

Yeah like 99% of the keycaps you will find will work

[visual grotto]

any good specific brand?

[glossy pagoda]

Dead zone discussion

[glacial wind]

They’re right in that some deadzone leads to better usability

I always find it hilarious when people ask for absurd levels of sensitivity mixed with zero deadzone and I wonder what they’d even use it in

Most folks would end up making their own valorant or cs strafing inconsistent if they tried to play with some of the absurdly low settings they request

[stray tiger]

Yeah but less then 0.2mm puts you in the zone of it being too low that you get a ton of false actuations

The way they summarize it as tilt vs press is a simple visual for most people

[glacial wind]

Yeah I think venom has had its own back and forth with it too when they first tested 0 deadzone in the beta versions and it caused issues

[tawdry tree]

If it were true of course. #🔧│keyboard_modding message

[stray tiger]

The ability to distinguish can be muddy but the visual is great when trying to explain it

[tawdry tree]

that enforced deadzone is odd, I don’t think it works yet

[tawdry tree]

Wooting can

[stray tiger]

Well yeah, but we are talking about the flux maxxers who have no idea what they are asking for

Smalla numba is gudder

[tawdry tree]

I’d think Woot has an advantage when entering the road to the bottom game. Only they have firmware that can learn from the switch and dynamic change the deadzone afaik

Doing the literal impossible according to Zenaim lol

They don’t have devs with magic hands for sure

[sacred elm]

Simon

[tropic urchin]

Where flux switch detector 🥀

[sacred elm]

LOL, i think that will be hard to do

I might be wrong, not sure

Fluxes have issues on benom

[tawdry tree]

Don’t think you’re wrong. There isn’t a board yet that can display true raw flux before calibration afaik

Oh

it’s about fluxes lol

[sacred elm]

Some keys dont actuate at all, unless you manually calibrate it

No issues at all on wooting rn tho

[tawdry tree]

Venom has manual cal?

[stray tiger]

Apparently it might be related to wildly out of spec magnet consistency

[tawdry tree]

ye

[stray tiger]

I installed some yesterday but haven't checked them yet. I'll try and do that today

[sacred elm]

Yea, some magnets are stronger and I wonder if its possible to add them in switch selector in future

[polar girder]

I usually don’t mess with Betas honestly

I’ll wait to see what happens to the Stable version

[tawdry tree]

Stable and beta both suck, alpha is perfect

[tawdry tree]

When you select Raeds on the beta, you can still change the deadzone below 0.3, so it either might not work as it should or it just stacks deadzone on deadzone 🥴

[polar girder]

lol

I don’t even know what my deadzone is set to

[tawdry tree]

“Latency Maxxer”, righttt..

[trim parcel]

I have the Optimum Wooting 60HE+. Can anyone tell me if the gateron Ink V2 Pro Screw in Stabilizers will fit. If not can you recommend any?

[polar girder]

Exposed

[tawdry tree]

Why do you wanna switch stabs?

[polar girder]

Need to go back to Placebo Maxxer

[trim parcel]

Because these have a much slower return than I'm used to.

[tawdry tree]

Hmm, did you change anything about them or are they stock?

[tidal frigate]

Looks like geon lurks in wooting discord for ideas

[trim parcel]

No, I just lubed the switches. Not the stabs.

[tawdry tree]

Did they feel slow before you lubed the switches?

You can get other stabs but if you got the Module, you’re better off tuning them that getting new ones.

The Module comes stock with Gateron stabs and I don’t think they’re very different from Ink V2s (they are very different but I don’t know if they’ll fit)

[polar girder]

lol why? Cuz emojis?

[trim parcel]

Thanx, If anybody has a compatible list of stabs please let me know. I'm waiting on my GMK 's to get here and was gonna mod the stabs while I was at it.

[tidal frigate]

Per key switch selector

[trim parcel]

Do like the friction fit pad? I got the pom ttc wooting switches. It sounds amazing but I do feel that maybe it takes some of the sound out.

[tidal frigate]

Any 1.6mm clip in and screw in should work

[tawdry tree]

SW Knight V3s, you’ll need to get some lube too.

[tawdry tree]

Many don’t too. ;)

[trim parcel]

Thank you. I'm new to the modding but I'm finding it additive.

[stray tiger]

Tons of stabs out there. I've been a big fan of the YIKB ones for a while now

[tawdry tree]

60HE+

:/

[trim parcel]

Got plenty of lube. lol!

[stray tiger]

No issues on the HE+. I do tend to prefer the SW Knight's v1 to the v3's though

[polar girder]

What does that even mean? Lol I don’t get it

[stray tiger]

With new firmware you can select your switch type individually for each key

[polar girder]

Mixing switches on a PCB?

[trim parcel]

Cool, I'll share some pics when it's done. Thanx!

[polar girder]

That’s crazy

[tawdry tree]

If stabs under tension are a good recommendation, be my guest man

[polar girder]

I kind of want to try these

[stray tiger]

This hasn't been my experience at all. But just like with the SW v3's others may not have experienced the problem I have

[polar girder]

My SW are not very smooth

Like where the wire meets the little silicone in the housing adds some friction that makes it more difficult to press than it should be

[stray tiger]

A lot of people prefer a different switch for their space bar or just the WASD keys. Sometimes for sound, sometimes for travel distance

[tawdry tree]

They either fit, or they’re under stress. If they’re fat, they’re under stress with the PC plates and don’t fit through the metal plates at all. 👍

and Typeplus stabs are fat

[trim parcel]

The pom ttc wooting's are amazing!

[tulip rapids]

how you like the feel of 55g?

[stray tiger]

For example the issue I had with the SW V3's my spacebar wires kept slipping out when pulling the keycap. I posted about it here and some others had the same problem. I ended up using a V1 wire on the V3 housing.

Honestly the best thing to do is keep the stock stabs and clean them and then tune from scratch

[polar girder]

Yeah stock stabs rock

Need to figure out my stab problem at some point

Space bar feels solid but rest of the mods are frustrating

[trim parcel]

I lubed them with Krytox 205G0. It sounds really great. Even with the friction fit pad.

[stray tiger]

One thing I noticed on the venom that helps is loosening all of the PCB to Plate screws and then putting the stab caps on and testing them. Then tighten a screw and test again. The stab cutouts are tight and can tweak a little if the plate is even slightly not aligned

[trim parcel]

Its good.

[polar girder]

Damn ok

Will do. Thanks.

It’s frustrating I’m not done with it. 😵‍💫

Switches sound great

[stray tiger]

Two types of people. You either enjoy tweaking and tinkering or you don't.

[polar girder]

I don’t.

I view it as a necessary evil.

[stray tiger]

Now you gotta stop spending money on boards and start buying more skins!

[polar girder]

lol yeah I’m done. Gotta sell my Wooting

Still waiting to pull a knife at some point

I think my loadout is chill

Always on the prowl tho lol

[fluid ravine]

I enjoy it

Even with just one hand

Tried at least 6 configs on my neo

Lubed and unlubed stabs one handed

And prep 2 PCBs for it

Now time to do it again td

Switches arrived @stray tiger

[stray tiger]

Let the fun begin

[night atlas]

What is better/worse magnetic flux and what does it actually do on a functional level, regardless if the avg person can feel the differences or not?

I hear about it all the time but never actually knew what it was

would "worse" flux values cause ghost inputs, double presses etc?

[little glen]

any idea when/if the HE board is happening?

[stray tiger]

May 2nd, so 2 days

[little glen]

same time?

[stray tiger]

yes

[little glen]

its 1 am for me 😭

[tawdry tree]

Consistency from switch to switch and the most important is that the values are within the range of the sensor. So it’s not higher flux = better.

[night atlas]

ooooooooooooooooooooooh

that makes a LOT of sense

good to know

[tawdry tree]

Worse would be very inconsistent flux values from switch to switch like the Fluxes have (allegedly).

[night atlas]

time to flux max and swear i can feel the differences

and blame that for my reason being hardstuck plat

also, wtf are gateron luminaries? lol

[tawdry tree]

A new switch that doesn’t exist yet

supposed to be a fan composed switch

if they will listen to everyone who submitted their switch is the question..

[night atlas]

...so a crowdfunded franken swtich?

lol

[sacred elm]

best switch

jk

[night atlas]

knowin my ass i'll buy them too

[sacred elm]

imagine buying them

[night atlas]

don't gotta imagine...

[tawdry tree]

crowdcomposed (they gave a few away and everyone who submitted their switch a discount)

[sacred elm]

@tawdry tree

[night atlas]

i got duhuk rocks coming in tmrw and ur ice sakuras whenever aliexpress does its thing

[tawdry tree]

I wonder how long it’s gonna take

[night atlas]

my excuse is that my friend's bday is soon and that i'll give him a massive switch variety pack for his new wooting

it'll be a gift and a curse if he decides to pursue his curiosity

the only one i really regret getting is the latenpow deng gods

[tawdry tree]

“free sample” and hooked after that 😭

[tawdry tree]

eh whatever, they’re like $18 for 70

right?

👀

[night atlas]

it's like a drug

first time's always free

[night atlas]

it's more of the excitement i harbored for it, took like 2 mo to arrive

i was incredibly disappointed to say the least LOL

though i do like just having extra switches i don't use for frankenswitches

which i mostly just use for my stab keys

akko astrolinks are there too, straight up don't like those

they look cool i'll give em that

[tawdry tree]

they’re good with Raw HE tops (or any other Hejin top with separate diffuser).

[night atlas]

they got way too much friction, even after hand lube

[tawdry tree]

I still haven’t received an update on mine

[night atlas]

is hejin the creator that "style" w/the separate diffuser

[tropic urchin]

Imagine getting them

https://tenor.com/view/champoy-el-risitas-kek-issou-etu-gif-17837830

[sacred elm]

I won

[night atlas]

obviously, you're gonna make ur own opinions, but just don't hold too much hope for em 🥲

[tawdry tree]

Not really but all top housings like that of the Raw HE will work well with the Deng Gods.

[night atlas]

ohhh okay

[tawdry tree]

I lost all hope when I read PC top, so it’s fine lol

[night atlas]

what's bad/unsavory about that?

[tawdry tree]

I ordered them knowingly

[night atlas]

not doubting u, just straight up don't know

[tawdry tree]

Not bad per se just that that’s 99% of magnetic switches

[night atlas]

ah, so it'd be like a predictable and non-unique feel sound to you?

[tawdry tree]

there isn’t a magnetic switch with a nylon top iirc

[tender valley]

anyone here using the gt60 pro?

[tawdry tree]

yeah, just something different would be nice rather than the 17484628384th recolor

[night atlas]

gotchu

wonder what non-PC top housings would fit and work well w/ti HEs

also that name makes me feel like there's titanium in that switch lol

i wonder why most switches are a combo of pom pc and nylon? are those just tried and true?

surely, there's other types right

[polar girder]

You didn’t even acknowledge the fact that your question has already been answered and people tagged

Lame

[tender valley]

lol i did dm them bro calm down

[tropic urchin]

One does not calm down the placebo maxxer

Bigsly is now bigmad

[tawdry tree]

I think PC top is just so it can be transparent for light and be one piece rather than a separate diffuser

[polar girder]

Common spammer L

[night atlas]

https://kineticlabs.com/blog/overview-of-popular-mechanical-keyboard-switch-housing-materials i googled it and found a material i've never heard of that supposedly has less friction than POM

i never heard of UHMWPE and that is also an interesting name lmfao

[night atlas]

that makes sense, yea this is quite interesting

[tender valley]

bro i literally dmed them im just trying to get in contact with people on it chill

[tawdry tree]

mech has loads of materials

mag has just nylon, PC and POM for the housings

[polar girder]

lol I’m chill. Are you chill, bro?

[sacred elm]

bigchill

[night atlas]

i see i see

[tender valley]

all g then

[night atlas]

wonder why HE switches haven't tried other materials, outside of the duhuk ones

that look like them expensive organic japanese eggs

[tawdry tree]

because we’re getting milked

[night atlas]

fuck man

[tawdry tree]

$1.2-2

[night atlas]

it's working

[tawdry tree]

is crazy

[night atlas]

wonder if there's people who've made functional frankenswitches w/top housings from mech switches

i'm just full of wondering lmfao, going down a rabbit hole

[tropic urchin]

$3 switches is where it’s at

Ain’t seen nuffin yet

[tawdry tree]

not without a bit of work

[night atlas]

oh right u and one other person were like the goats of frankenswitching

[tawdry tree]

fsiana used a gateron zero degree top on a kailh magnetic one iirc

[tawdry tree]

haha, I personally didn’t try it

I don’t like cutting up switches

[tawdry tree]

you had to cut off a little thingy on the kailh bottom

to make them fit well

[night atlas]

that sounds worse than lubing ngl

any new frankenswitches you've developed recently?

[tawdry tree]

it is 😭

[tawdry tree]

nope, it’s not really worth it anymore I think

[polar girder]

I been hearing people franken trying POM’s I think

Idk what they’re mixing up tho

[tawdry tree]

at least for decreasing wobble

[polar girder]

Yeah franken is dead

Unless you’re color maxxing

Palate Maxxing

[tawdry tree]

Phylina is a monochrome essentially

[night atlas]

i see i see

[tawdry tree]

they don’t sound bad either

[night atlas]

wait what is phylina

[night atlas]

shieeeet that sounds fkn amazing

what's the configuration u running?

[tawdry tree]

stolen from twitter, I don’t have mine yet

[night atlas]

wtf man now i gotta buy these

oh

safe

..for now lmao

yea i went down a twitter rabbit hole last night til like 3, looking at a buncha HE switches that i've never heard of

[tawdry tree]

twit is a good place to find sound tests

more so than this disc lol

for new switches*

[night atlas]

ya i realized that last night

[stray tiger]

Testing on a wooden case makes it hard for a good comparison but they sound nice and poppy

[night atlas]

a lot of them didn't list the plate material which was sad

[tawdry tree]

Ice Ultra - Jade Pro

[night atlas]

they sound nearly identical

are Ices recolors?

[stray tiger]

The Phylinas are a bit clackier compared to the IU's in this case, (without knowing the plate used)

[tawdry tree]

Nah, UR Studio Ice Max - Ice Ultra and Ice Ultra Sakura (which is a recolor, I think you got this one).

[night atlas]

ohhh okay

was gonna be so sad if i just fooled myself into buying pink jades lmfao

[polar girder]

Those do sound pretty good

You know what plate that is?

[stray tiger]

A lot of that is going to be from the wooden case

[night atlas]

my guess is that it's the white PC plate, i can kinda see it

[polar girder]

Yeah

[tawdry tree]

It’s a Raven61 and stock plate is alu iirc

don’t think there are other plates available for it

[thorn zealot]

U enjoy tweakin with one hand

Sounds like a blast

[stray tiger]

Going to be my first time trying caps from these guys

[thorn zealot]

Heard good things from them

[polar girder]

Heard nothing from them

GLHF

LMK

TBD

[thorn zealot]

i meant abt them

im such a brick

[little glen]

would love to hear what you think

they seem to have nice designs, just no international kitting at all 😭

[fluid ravine]

Should I stream or neh

[stray tiger]

When in doubt, stream it out. But I'll be driving for the next 2 hours so I can't watch very well but I'll tune in if you do.

[thorn zealot]

stream ur new switches?

yes

[paper bloom]

Btw guys

[polar girder]

I wasn’t trying to mock. I’ve also heard nothing about them

[paper bloom]

I got a question

If i built a keeb have it sent over to the person

With proper firmware installed

And the person plugs in she or he's keeb

[thorn zealot]

yeah ik i just realized my typo from ur msg

[paper bloom]

And the power isnt on

Its usually the jst cable being looose right?

Upon shipment

[polar girder]

Prob

Or plug in user error

Perhaps more likely

[stray tiger]

More likely use cable not plugged all the way in. Make sure they are using the stock cable

[paper bloom]

Theyre the stock

Its all the way in

As i got told

Ill ask the person to make a community post

[stray tiger]

Then yes it could be the JST cable but the ones on the 80HE are tight

[paper bloom]

Ok then tjats odd af

No way its the PCB

Shit is like protected by an abs and a travel case

And a dhl box

[stray tiger]

Yeah if they are using the stock cable in a known good port and both ends are 100% plugged all the way in, then they could check the JST cable

[paper bloom]

Ok thanks

Either wya ill make a community post about this after checking the JST

Cable

[fluid ravine]

Alr stream it then

Ima try to finish before alexotos stream today

6pm for me when it starts

[upbeat sorrel]

hi! does anyone know where i can get the 3d print file for the top plate for the 60he?

[untold wigeon]

i’ve fulfilled 8 people’s request of wooting 80he

Thank you for the advice

[tulip rapids]

drop the mod specs🔥

[untold wigeon]

may i know the name of the purple case?

[calm pulsar]

frog mini

[untold wigeon]

wait frog mini has a purple case before?

new info unlocked

[calm pulsar]

I've seen gray, green, red ones too

from older og runs

[untold wigeon]

ngl, i forgot what colors were there

[tulip rapids]

is the frog mini better than tofu 60 redux with brass weight

?

[fluid ravine]

https://www.twitch.tv/tuan_v?no-reload=true

@stray tiger

[tulip rapids]

the cream 🫦

[fluid ravine]

lol

[untold wigeon]

leggera or OG frog?

eiter OG Frog / Leggera, i will say yes to frog

[tropic urchin]

You should post the build video on YT and might surpass mikeytypes on video length

[harsh dove]

People want deadzone so sensitive that the rotation of the earth and gravity trigger their keyboard to actuate

and think they won't have errors at those levels

[tulip rapids]

i guess leggera since thats the newer stuff

[tropic urchin]

I won’t have errors, my fingers are different 🌹

[thorn zealot]

those switches are oiled up

[tropic urchin]

Trained using only the finest switches

[thorn zealot]

just like some else rn

[tulip rapids]

im trying to get close to muted thock sound even though its hard for he boards

[untold wigeon]

and i tried the T mount, it's amazing with burger mount...
but i still suggest to get the G mount

absolutely amazing, one of the bounciest Tray mount i've every build

[tulip rapids]

right now i got tofu 60 redux with brass weight, foam, wooting pc plate, geon raw switches and wooting keycaps

[tardy obsidian]

i need help with optimum keycaps

so is r1 the top row

[thorn zealot]

sounds like muted "thock" to me

[tardy obsidian]

so many conflicting answers on google

[tulip rapids]

really? sounds a bit loud compared to aligner beautiful setup

[tardy obsidian]

if anyone have it, pls elp

[untold wigeon]

maybe try to tape mod it

[marsh saffron]

Tape mod bleh

[thorn zealot]

well based on ur build specs that should result in muted "thock"

[untold wigeon]

just to make it deeper

[thorn zealot]

also take sound tests with a grain of salt

[marsh saffron]

With.. raws?

[untold wigeon]

YESYESYES

MY KING

[thorn zealot]

yes r1 should be like numbers/f row

[untold wigeon]

10 layer minimal

[thorn zealot]

@tardy obsidian u can look at this for example

[marsh saffron]

I'm considering removing my plate foam to see how it sounds with my tee hees

[untold wigeon]

it's nice

what plate?

[marsh saffron]

Steel rn

Because it's white :p

[thorn zealot]

i mean u can put almost any switch in there

and it will sound like foam

[untold wigeon]

on my previous leggera (rip), i used CF + no foams & tee heeessss

[marsh saffron]

Yeah but wouldn't it just sound like a muted clack

Or is that just what thock is???

What the hell even is thock

[thorn zealot]

exactly

"thock" is like dividing by 0

[untold wigeon]

so it's muted

[untold wigeon]

if it's a deep clack, it will not be muted..
but deeeppppppp

[tropic urchin]

Thock is whatever Hipyo says it is on his next video

[calm pulsar]

hi mom im on TV

[marsh saffron]

True

[untold wigeon]

me tooo

MOMMYYY

[thorn zealot]

soo every sub $100 amazon kb

cuz thats all he uploads

[tardy obsidian]

u sure? r4 is the highest one on this set (optimum) it looks like f keys idk tho

[thorn zealot]

u can also go based on the side profile of the keycaps

[tropic urchin]

That’s painful

[thorn zealot]

if hes a "kb expert" cuz he owns like 200 $100 amazon kbs

[tardy obsidian]

man why didnt they just make a post abt this 😩 its so confusing

[thorn zealot]

than im an "audio expert" cuz i own 50 $20 iems (i dont)

[tropic urchin]

Keyboard expert, barely gold in CS GG

[marsh saffron]

And sponsored boards

[tropic urchin]

Then*

[thorn zealot]

hes sponsored by like all the chinese kb brands that make those type of kbs

[untold wigeon]

yoo, i will have extra duhuk 70 switches...
should i just go for rawhuk

[thorn zealot]

fucking rainy, meletrix or some shit

[untold wigeon]

i need to buy extra 15 switches tho

[tropic urchin]

YOLO brotha

[untold wigeon]

rawhuk are deeper than owlab ti right?

i like the look of mily white tho

[tropic urchin]

Idk if they’re deeper but I don’t think it’ll have the weird quiet top of the duhuk, but worth trying

Never tried either since I’m a box stem fanatic

[untold wigeon]

true, but i need to spend minimum 8 hours

and i might spring swap to 72 gf

[tropic urchin]

Price of salvation

[thorn zealot]

yeah u like that BBS

[tropic urchin]

😳

[thorn zealot]

what

[untold wigeon]

anyone here that have tried the rawhuk and owlabs TI?

[thorn zealot]

u like big box stems

[untold wigeon]

does it worth the 8 hours?

[thorn zealot]

cam

[tropic urchin]

Technically smaller boxstem

[untold wigeon]

alright

[thorn zealot]

also the drunk homeless man

[thorn zealot]

🤓 ☝️

[untold wigeon]

@fluid ravine stem swap & spring swap & lubing those

[tropic urchin]

uHm AkTuAlLy ItS aN OcTaGoNaL bOx StEm, ItS rAtHeR sLiM aNd DiScReTe

[thorn zealot]

@fluid ravine u can finally get big gains

[untold wigeon]

i'm in love with the visuals of the rawhuks tho

[thorn zealot]

1 arm at a time

[untold wigeon]

HAHAHAHHAA

[marsh saffron]

Tee hees would look so good in a mocha tofu with matching keycaps

[untold wigeon]

true

full brown

[marsh saffron]

Noctua 60he

[untold wigeon]

like a chocolate

[thorn zealot]

i think of someone snorting when reading this

[marsh saffron]

Caramel and mocha build would go hard

Too bad I'm basic and love all white smh

[untold wigeon]

anyone here have wooting 80he plate file?

i might try to make a custom cf plate

[thorn zealot]

@fluid ravine my dad is heading to houston tmr

he can help u build kbs

[tropic urchin]

🐽

[untold wigeon]

yoo 80he need 85 switches right?

[tropic urchin]

84 ansi

But close enough

[untold wigeon]

I don't want to count every single of those keys

[untold wigeon]

alright

heumm

[tropic urchin]

For 80HE you’ll be ordering 90 switches regardless

[untold wigeon]

what switches

[tropic urchin]

Gives you extra 6 in case you need em

[untold wigeon]

nah, i'm buying them from local vendors

saving tax

[thorn zealot]

alr bert

[tropic urchin]

Bro just hit me with the aktually, fair enough

[thorn zealot]

@fluid ravine ermm u should film and spring swap everything

or else ur getting perma'd

[untold wigeon]

any1 have tried mount tai switches?

are those good?

[thorn zealot]

also cam

💀

[paper bloom]

LOL

[thorn zealot]

shes not wrong

[calm pulsar]

"I like my left hand" (c) Frogson

[tulip rapids]

maybe i gotta lube the switches. I havent done that yet

[tulip rapids]

what would you recommend?

[thorn zealot]

that prob wont change sound

that much

[tulip rapids]

yeah i know that

but these are factory lube

[thorn zealot]

yeah my right arm is alot bigger than my left arm

dont ask why

[tulip rapids]

and it sounds like it needs to be lubed again tbh

[calm pulsar]

[tulip rapids]

forgive me im also pleb

[thorn zealot]

tuan fingering that slot real good

[tulip rapids]

what case is that?

[thorn zealot]

tuan? neo65

[tulip rapids]

ye

and thx

tuan with the creamy keyboard🫦

[thorn zealot]

@fluid ravine those sound like

brothe

uh

crunchy

[tulip rapids]

what switches are those ?

the new one hes putting on?

[thorn zealot]

idk

the only ones ik are the gat milky yellows and gat black inks

@fluid ravine swear thockdaddy gave u unlubed switches for u to suffer

[stray tiger]

I can tell lol

[calm pulsar]

[marsh saffron]

Bro got the keyboard chirping

[stray tiger]

Proof that Tuan'[s voice is deeper than on stream

[calm pulsar]

he has to pitch shift it up so we don't have complexes

[fluid ravine]

[tropic urchin]

I don’t stream so not inaccurate hehe

[calm pulsar]

nahh this is so nice

[fluid ravine]

milky yellow spacebar

yummmmm

[calm pulsar]

I wish I got milky yellows but I already got mx blacks on the way

[fluid ravine]

@stray tiger should i lube the milky yellows?

[stray tiger]

I think they sound way better when lubed

[fluid ravine]

yeah i think so tooo

hmmmm

if i manage to finish all my work ill lube them time to time

even the black inks

i could lube a few rn

[thorn zealot]

what switches did u give him

me forget

[tidal frigate]

Man your video is 4s behind sounds

[tall hollow]

mmmmmmm~~

[calm pulsar]

watch faster

[fluid ravine]

films or nah

[thorn zealot]

yes to make u do just a lil more work

[tidal frigate]

I can't manipulate time

[fluid ravine]

We lubing today

[thorn zealot]

is that a sticker of u

[fluid ravine]

[calm pulsar]

TuanZ

[fluid ravine]

@stray tiger

QWE Lubed Ink blacks

ASD Lubed milky yellow

[stray tiger]

You cant compare 2 different rows. Gotta do SD and JK

[fluid ravine]

Shi

[fluid ravine]

I'm struggling taking milky yel8out rn 2😭

[fluid ravine]

xd

[frigid stump]

Wondering if I just go from Owlab Ti HEs to UR Studio Ice Ultras

[thorn zealot]

no no gotta be in the same spots

inks in s d and yellows and s d

[stray tiger]

K boys, I think we found the one.

[calm pulsar]

including the same humidity, temperature and XAUUSD price on the market

[thorn zealot]

mighty fine

how they feel

[calm pulsar]

very nice colors

[stray tiger]

Ill be buying some more next sale for sure

[thorn zealot]

sounds like a 👍

[fluid ravine]

I'm gonna lube all these in a batch

Ima use bsun udon for mow

[marsh saffron]

Gorgeous view

[calm pulsar]

I want there

[marsh saffron]

Also fed these ladies

[stray tiger]

https://www.twitch.tv/alexotos/clip/BovineCourteousPlumageBlargNaut--jSu389KqkJj5bL7

Without the weight. He is installing the weight now

[calm pulsar]

feels dampened

[stray tiger]

The smoothies are a deep switch

[stray tiger]

When I get it back if I want to brighten it up Ill swap in some Hyacinth Sillyworks V2U's

[marsh saffron]

Still feels strange that this is where I live

Its so nice here

[calm pulsar]

for me it sounds more related to the other specs, the switch itself is nice sounding
maybe its a combination of plastic plate and case

curious about the weight

[thorn zealot]

why do 2 of them look elevated

[marsh saffron]

They squint a lot

They have massive eyes when they open them

[calm pulsar]

@stray tiger the current config I really like, with whatever was in the spacebar

[thorn zealot]

i would make a joke but im not gonna get timed out like joshiba

[tropic urchin]

LMAO

[marsh saffron]

[tropic urchin]

I still can’t believe he said that 🤣

[stray tiger]

Same but I did like it without the weight

I won't be typing on it though so I'm not too caught up on the sound. It'll be a display board

[calm pulsar]

makes sense

[thorn zealot]

at this point ima cop a neo60 core instead of venom mx

or lx60

[calm pulsar]

only wkl ones are left btw

except neon color

[thorn zealot]

then neo60 it is

i need my win key

[marsh saffron]

It feels surreal to live here

[calm pulsar]

if you're getting this solely for the pcb there are WK neon ones hehe

[thorn zealot]

u live in the perfect place to farm windows default wallpapers

[thorn zealot]

isnt neon the pc one

also the shipping from luminkey bends me over my card

[calm pulsar]

it is 😬

[marsh saffron]

Unironically might set my wallpaper to one of the photos I took

[harsh dove]

Probably in the minority here, but I smiled when I noticed my GMK Rubrehose finally starting to shine

[calm pulsar]

shine good

[thorn zealot]

its cuz of the love and care u put into ur keycaps

[harsh dove]

[mortal edge]

Had my optimum case coated in black, thoughts?

[stray tiger]

Looking real good!

Cerakote?

[mortal edge]

Powder coat, matte black!

[inland sparrow]

i need some suggestions / recommendations... what switches would sound nice (thocky, creamy) for Wooting 80HE (i also changed the case to GT-80)

[glacial wind]

owlab ti he

[tidal frigate]

You know they are clack

[glacial wind]

they're the best option he has

[sacred elm]

you forgot gateron luminary sno

pure thonck

[glacial wind]

thonkck indeed

actually thonk should be a word

[calm pulsar]

tohck

[glacial wind]

we need a new sound genre called thonk

[knotty iron]

This was done so well. Amazing 1/1!

[inland sparrow]

snow rabbit ?

[glacial wind]

he's joking, there isn't such a switch

[inland sparrow]

oh hahahaha

i cant find a switch thats nice...

keychron k2
monsgeek M1W-HE
Akko cream yellow
Gateron Magnetic Jade Pro
Gateron KS-37B Magnetic FOX
Everglide Sticky Rice V2
GEO75 HE

kinda checking on these now

[glacial wind]

the owlab ti is basically the best 'clean' sounding switch right now, if you're looking for oldschool mx thock it doesn't exist at all in HE due to switch design

[inland sparrow]

checked it, sounded wayyyy too clacky for me

im a more muted, creamy/thocky kind

[calm pulsar]

17 layers of tape

[glacial wind]

yeah the tl;dr is they are all clack. There isn't a single creamy thocky switch in HE in regards to what you're asking

your entire list there is all clack too

[inland sparrow]

got 5 on already hahahhaa

[inland sparrow]

damn

[calm pulsar]

[glacial wind]

until someone redesigns magnetic switch and finds a way around having a magnet in the middle making everything sound clacky you'll just have to pick a clacky switch

[inland sparrow]

https://www.youtube.com/shorts/k0hPRTxEUfc

this makes my brain melt

[glacial wind]

that's an mx video

[inland sparrow]

but i know HE has its draw backs, but trying to get as close to this

[glacial wind]

it doesn't exist. period.

[inland sparrow]

i know it will never be the same or close

[glacial wind]

you will not get close and no one before you have gotten close

[calm pulsar]

we've been there

[inland sparrow]

sadge

[calm pulsar]

embrace the clack

[inland sparrow]

HAHAHAHHAA

unless....

[distant crag]

ur ice ultra? sounds deep and clean from vids

[glacial wind]

basically think of it like this: we've have 1937492 people come in regularly for the past 2 years and not a single one has managed to get creamy thock

[glacial wind]

he wants marbly thock like wuque morandi style. Not just slightly deeper clack

[inland sparrow]

no , not mine, i wish hahahaha

[calm pulsar]

just get a good clean sounding switch

ti he for instance

and find a plate of preference from there

[inland sparrow]

if im to embrace the clack

the ones i saw and leaned towards were :

[tidal frigate]

Then go poms

[inland sparrow]

Gateron Magnetic Jade Pro
TTC KOM RBG
Everglide Sticky Rice V2

[tidal frigate]

And carbon fiber plate

[inland sparrow]

somewhere along these lines

[inland sparrow]

tried, found PC plates are thockier

[glacial wind]

all of those are clackier/higher pitch than owlab ti just fyi

[distant crag]

how I wish there was one..

[glacial wind]

it's why we recommended owlab ti at the start. It's basically the best of all the 'clack' options right now

[stray tiger]

Its my go to switch atm

[distant crag]

yeah. im sticking with my owlab until the next best comes 😂

[chilly mural]

Same

[distant crag]

you have tiger lite w/ owlabs right? care to share some soundtest? 😄 I want tkl too

[chilly mural]

Later, I'm outside, but I do bring that keyboard with me today

So expect one at subway if the sound is not too bad

[inland sparrow]

hmmmm it does sound deeper than the ones i mentioned earlier

[inland sparrow]

was this factory lube ?

[distant crag]

all of them should come pre-lubed

[inland sparrow]

i like overlubing mine usually

just waiting for my poron foam to arrive to see how much it changes the sound profile

[glacial saffron]

I've seen this question on Reddit, but just in case anyone is wondering, Glorious Raptor HE Clicky switches — while not officially supported — DO work with Wooting's boards. (Would imagine that applies to Glorious's other HE switches as well.) I installed the Raptors in my 80HE and leds, and mods all work as expected. So far as I know, these are the only clicky HE switches on the mareket. Might have limited appeal for most gamers, as the click won't necessarily match the actuation, if that matters to you. But they are actually pretty nice for typing.

[inland sparrow]

tried using the car sound dampeners, sounded horrible, it was so clacky

[sacred elm]

none

[inland sparrow]

yeah went thru this already hahahah

looking at the owlab ti right now

[sacred elm]

from those options only jade pros are good

but owlabs have less wobble

[inland sparrow]

mehh wobble doesnt affect me, i usually bottom out when typing

[sacred elm]

bottom out wobble exists

[inland sparrow]

thanks btw

[inland sparrow]

so far dont even feel it on the lekker v2

so i considering comparisons, i think i should be safe

[sacred elm]

you will feel it when you try tighter switches

[inland sparrow]

ok so now im stuck between Jade Max and Owlab Ti

[sacred elm]

jade maxes have issues

dont buy them

[inland sparrow]

i recalled there was an issues with maxes right

what was it ?

[sacred elm]

friction issues

[inland sparrow]

something about getting stuck or something right

[sacred elm]

take a look at ur ice ultra, they are deeper than owlab switches and have similar ish wobble too

[inland sparrow]

damn... but they sound so nice

[inland sparrow]

lemme seee

[sacred elm]

Theyre on aliexpress

[inland sparrow]

i have taobao here hahahha i can ship direct from CN

why cant i find any sound test for ur ice ultra lolll

[sacred elm]

X · Apr 30, 2025, 5:31 PM

this is 60he so sound is gonna be different

but theyre potentially what you want

[inland sparrow]

ok so now....

Owlab Ti
UR Ice Ultra

but Owlab has more sound profiles to hear on videos

ur ice is new ? i dont see a lot of sound test on these

[glacial wind]

they're just 1 of many variations of very similar switches basically

the tl;dr is there's like 192749192 variations of the same switch. Owlabs are just one of the best ones with cleanest sound so it gets recommended the most

[inland sparrow]

would it be stupid to import like 1 switch of each hahahhahah

[glacial wind]

nah you can do that if you want, although honestly speaking there's not a huge difference between most of the switches if they're in the same rough 'generation'

basically it goes like manu has a new mold that's x tight and smooth, then 1937482 switches come out in that rough spec, then next gen comes out that's a little bit tighter and smoother, then 18273929 switches come out again etc etc

[distant crag]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FQ9IPzQIn5U&t=3252s u can compare ur ice ultra / geon raws from this.

[glacial wind]

there's even some switches that are just recolors of the owlab ti, like the duhuk herz which seem to just be recolored owlab

the fun part is when they add a random word to make it more confusing

[inland sparrow]

ive been at this for 2 months

[glacial wind]

like there's ur ice and ur ice ultra but they look almost the same in both look and marketing so sometimes you have to look carefully when buying

[inland sparrow]

so far the nicest ones are the ones you guys recommmened

cuz mainstream kept pushing at jade pros or max

but from both sound test im hearing the ice to be lower pitched and deeper

might go with that

or just buy both LOLLLL

[glacial wind]

mainstream is just behind by 6 months or whatever because it hasn't spread out to general population yet since these switches only came out recently

[sacred elm]

make sure you get ultras and not ice maxes or regular ice

[inland sparrow]

at this point, im like friggin $1.2k in... i dont think i can make it any worse

[distant crag]

just buy both. for me I prefer the ice ultra for the deeper sound. but my order got cancelled 😦

[glacial wind]

oh you can. There's that owlabs raffle coming up soon

[inland sparrow]

sorry to hear that

[glacial wind]

you could win the chance to increase that spending another $400

[inland sparrow]

but i dont have that kind of issue, i have access to direct manufacturers

[inland sparrow]

NOOOOOOOOOOOO

[distant crag]

or sell for x2 the price if you win hahahahaha

[glacial wind]

no joke the dealer in aus had to cancel some owlabs orders in the last raffle because the guy tried to sell his raffle win before it even shipped

[sacred elm]

what if gaterons new switch is pure thock

https://tenor.com/view/oh-no-clueless-clueless-emote-wojak-disturbed-gif-24266075

[glacial wind]

he literally won then immediately posted the raffle win to the local mech market groups selling it for 1.5-2x

so they tracked down his order and cancelled it lol

[distant crag]

lol really bad move

[inland sparrow]

yooo the Ice Ultras are hella cheap

84pcs for $SGD 35

[glacial wind]

yeah a large amount of these switches are very reasonably priced at like 0.4 or so per switch

[inland sparrow]

was ready to cough like $100

[distant crag]

where link pls

[inland sparrow]

where you at tho hahhaha

[distant crag]

ohhh the ice ultra sakuras

[inland sparrow]

nothing is really OUT OF STOCK

guess im running ice then hahahha

[distant crag]

#🔧│keyboard_modding message he posted comparison b/w sakura and owlabs

[inland sparrow]

oh gawd... im gonna spend the whole weekend lubing

yeahhh so i was right it does sound deeper

[calm pulsar]

sounds like cope

[inland sparrow]

its prob his mods on top of it tho

[inland sparrow]

usually is mate hahhahaha

[sacred elm]

believe

[inland sparrow]

@distant crag btw, + shipping from CN is $41 SGD

dunno where you at , could cost more

[distant crag]

if krepublic wont restock the clear version, I will just purchase the sakuras. free shipping

[fallen pecan]

nah bruh that's the expensive one

lemme hook you up: https://item.taobao.com/item.htm?id=904427363724

[distant crag]

u have link for the blue ice?

cant find any clear ice ultra anymore

[inland sparrow]

same price bro hahahhaha ,its cuz of shipping

[fallen pecan]

the original store has blue ice, but i'm waiting for the dealers to get them

[inland sparrow]

it depends on location

[distant crag]

ohhh link for the original store please

[fallen pecan]

https://item.taobao.com/item.htm?id=857122016696

[inland sparrow]

this is the same one i shared to him

was just about to say hahahha

this one has blues

oh guys

UR Studio Ice and UR Ice Ultra

is different right

its not the same ?

[fallen pecan]

yes dont get the old one

[inland sparrow]

kinda confusing

[fallen pecan]

old one has a phat ass

[inland sparrow]

aight

[untold wigeon]

is the sw knights stabs good?

i hate the typeplus spacebar

[calm pulsar]

skill issue

but sw knights good

[untold wigeon]

not skill issue, like it's not bad...
but it's kinda loud

i put tons of lube still loud

i tried to retune them

still loud

only the spacebar

😩

[inland sparrow]

prob a stabilizer issue ?

[calm pulsar]

try different switches, caps
stabs really should not affect the sound

[untold wigeon]

i might try it on wooting first tho

on my last leggera

it was quite loud

[fallen pecan]

put a single raed switch on spacebar, problem solved

[inland sparrow]

the original wooting stabs are hella rattly

[untold wigeon]

hell nahh

[untold wigeon]

yep

that's the reason i bought module

[inland sparrow]

i swapped it out for the nylon staebies 2.1

[untold wigeon]

uhhh staebies

i have heard about them

never tried it

no vendor in my country

[inland sparrow]

i was against it at first, but its actually solid

it changes the sound profile by miles

[untold wigeon]

staebies or typeplus better tho?

i fell in love with typeplus wire

[inland sparrow]

i never used typeplus before, no comment

ask the other veterans hahahahah

[untold wigeon]

crap

typeplus sold out on my vendor

[inland sparrow]

hold up

lucky for you

i got a friend that has both LOLLLL

[untold wigeon]

I think there is no point for asking staebies rn

there is no vendor's in my country that sells them

[inland sparrow]

yeahh no he says staebies still goated

he says typeplus rattly

[untold wigeon]

alrightt

i might try to purchase from taobao (?)

maybe

[inland sparrow]

he doesnt know about the wooting stabs, so he said he cant comment'

[untold wigeon]

heumm

[untold wigeon]

thanks

[harsh dove]

but it says Thock on the Switch Sheet

[glacial wind]

i give them the medicine hidden inside the candy

[harsh dove]

[calm pulsar]

[glacial wind]

you know it's going to be an interesting day when you wake up to chess drama news

that seems to be the rules

[harsh dove]

haha Chess drama

[glacial wind]

i'm still confused at why someone would cheat in a charity tournament and then deny the blatent cheating, then drop out and get banned and pretend it was an accident

it's like masterclass in picking the wrong pr move over and over

[inland sparrow]

question

[calm pulsar]

consulted with Pirate

[inland sparrow]

does swapping out the springs in a HE switch affect anything ?

like i recalled reading some saying HE switches cannot do spring swaps

[calm pulsar]

spring weight

gateron-lekker-raws are interchangeable springs

[inland sparrow]

im looking to up the 35gm from the ice ultra to a 50gm

[calm pulsar]

ttc have their own diameter and WS flux have their own

not sure about others

[inland sparrow]

so it kinda depends right

[calm pulsar]

never used ice ultras, so not sure

if they have a conventional design like gateron or raw/ti he then replacement springs will likely work

[inland sparrow]

also something about it affects the magnets

[calm pulsar]

they are mostly made from non magnetic materials

or at least should be lol

[inland sparrow]

hmmmm i see

not sure how the mechanics work

35gm is just hella light to me hahhahaha

[sacred elm]

35 is initial

50 bottom out

[inland sparrow]

im using the lekker 45s

its too light for me

60s is too heavy

thought 50 would be a nice middle ground

[sacred elm]

then ur ice is between them

5g heavier than L45

[inland sparrow]

ohhh ok, i guess my brain read it as 45gm initial force

[sacred elm]

5g lighter initial force and 10g lighter bottom out than L60

[inland sparrow]

so i dont need to swap hahahahha

[inland sparrow]

no youre right, its 5g heavier

initial force for lekker 45 is 30gm

this is 35gm

[sacred elm]

yes

[inland sparrow]

sickk

still curious about the spring swaps tho hahahha

[knotty iron]

They can do spring swaps but only with larger HE non magnetic springs

[calm pulsar]

did you see a korean navy seal hit johnny somali

[chilly mural]

@distant crag

I'll redo at home

[steel hemlock]

Does anyone know if at this current date there’s any new sellers/companies that do custom wooting straps from your own design? There used to be a few but they all shut down.

[glacial wind]

Yeah that’s old news, it’s just new again because the internet gave him money to pay his fine lol

[calm pulsar]

oh I see

[glacial wind]

either way johnny somali is screwed because he distributed deepfakes of people right after korea passed a giant law against deepfakes

it was literally national news of deepfakes being an issue and entire news cycle was how to stop it for months, then he came in and did that lol

[calm pulsar]

scandalous individual

that's a good law to be passed imo

[glacial wind]

couldn't have timed it better to get himself in trouble. I think it was literally like 1 month after the government passed new laws making punishments for it insanely harsh, then this clown came in and made everyone in nation hate him while using deepfakes to make fun of people

[calm pulsar]

that's one of those things that is so outstanding to do that it almost seems intentional

at least I would expect it from a guy who is asking to be stream sniped irl💀

[silent bison]

hi yall how do yall fix keycap stem fitting loose

[chilly mural]

Anything for content

[night atlas]

👀

[glacial wind]

not all that interesting

specs on it seem same as every other switch

[calm pulsar]

this looks like a convenitonal stem was increased in height to become box-like

[glacial wind]

yeah raesha did something with the stems there where some photos make it look replacable even like ttc

i don't really get their marketing bit about it suppression vibration though - surely you wouldn't want your switch to be changing the actuation/vibration of your presses and you'd want software to do that instead

[calm pulsar]

how does that work?

[glacial wind]

stem seems to be in 2 parts and somehow they claim that helps vibration or something

[calm pulsar]

ah my favorite permanent earth magnets

[calm pulsar]

so like ttc

[glacial wind]

yeah except it's round and not fully stuck there

their flux numbers are also +-70 at bottom out so i don't know what amazing magnets they're using but they must have used the cheap amazing magnets lol

[calm pulsar]

oh... so it hangs in there kinda
intuitively feels like it would even wobble more lol

[glacial wind]

yeah they're basically claiming that this movement will help reduce vibration effects on presses, but to me it sounds like it would just make it more annoying for good software to compensate properly

like you're actively making the switches move more and saying it's going to help lol

[calm pulsar]

yeah you'd think magnet actually moving would be so bad for precision

[glacial wind]

then again drunkdeer's rt match and all that stuff has been a messy inaccurate disaster in tests so maybe their software is so bad that this is good for them

[marsh saffron]

drunkdeer software is dogsjiot amyway

or at least it was

last i head it was awful though

[fallen pecan]

still dogshit, latest tests say the a75ultra polls at 2k, scans at 2.6k

[prime orbit]

I think switches have pretty much plateau

[chilly mural]

Doesn't it cost like $250?

[fallen pecan]

$150

250 was the master

[chilly mural]

Oh yeah

But damn, 150

There's more better options at that price

[fallen pecan]

the ultra places 4th

...from the bottom

the only selling point is that it has a ghetto version of the wooting owlabs case

[calm pulsar]

that looks kinda ass

thin metal sheet with springs feels like it would be pingy

[fallen pecan]

they cheaped out on the alu as well

this is the base of a $50 irok board

[untold wigeon]

which irok board is this?

ball catch on $50 HE?

insane

[fluid ravine]

idk why but milky yellow spacebar just smacks

[fluid ravine]

indeeed

i suppose if i film these they should make them sound fuller

which would be great

[calm pulsar]

dam I should've got films for my mx blacks probably

[fluid ravine]

springs and films

cherry springs are shiiiiiiiiiiiit

[calm pulsar]

😮

even the latest mx2a switches?

[fluid ravine]

yess

it's basically cherry recycling their springs

xd

[calm pulsar]

bruh

maybe ill just order milky yellows after that xd

[fluid ravine]

and you should lube them ofc

best to buy them unlube and lube em yourself

film and spring swap

otherwise everything about the mx blacks are great

[fluid ravine]

lmaoo

i need nixies :C

might pick up some deskey films

or tx switch films idk

[calm pulsar]

I could also order some hmx from aliexpress, though the selection is not that big there

hmx probably dont need anything

[fluid ravine]

nah

hmx lube and shit has been consistent

[calm pulsar]

these geon switches made by hmx even had springs lubed

[fluid ravine]

they're mostly like trying new shit

with molds and what not

typeplus spacebar is kinda bad

tried my best

[glacial wind]

what do you mean? Sounds great

there's no rattle at all

[untold wigeon]

but still sounds too loud, i build on a mech before using the stabs and sounds little bit better

might be because the bottom row is kinda hollow

[glacial wind]

did you put foam in? Sound loudness like that isn't usually to do with the stab specifically
