wait where's jakubix, he predicted tmr

[high lion]

closed end 4mm is crazy

thats fire

i hope they are sold separately getting it for my uwu

[tawdry tree]

me too.. 😭😭

[ionic breach]

wait so the yt leak was bait?

[tidal frigate]

I predicted new 60he

[prime orbit]

7U?????

[glacial wind]

lol

[tawdry tree]

I wanna know how they did the split space w/o tmr tho

[austere creek]

what yt leak

[prime orbit]

Nvm

Double spacebar 😭😭

[calm pulsar]

yup😭

[tawdry tree]

wait

[glossy pagoda]

The one @devout torrent posted? Yea that was him trolling all of you

[ionic breach]

i am depression

[left depot]

#🤩│wooting60hev2

[high lion]

i hope the 60he v2 isnt like 250 bucks

[devout torrent]

My bad bro 😭😭

[glossy pagoda]

I loved it

[tulip rapids]

kevin rocking that fresh cut though

[solar tundra]

it def will be prob

[austere creek]

oh the one with 60he pro on it when i said there is no 60he pro

that one

[fringe quarry]

self glazing

[high lion]

deadass wont be worth it

if they sell the switches separately

[solar tundra]

but why q4 tho

[solar tundra]

ofc they will

[chilly mural]

Perfect time for me

[austere creek]

final touchups as always

[untold wigeon]

so there is no huge pcb problems and such

[red cape]

It takes time to bring a product to mass production

[untold wigeon]

they can qc check first as well

[high lion]

but tbh allat hype

just for a keyboard remake

cmon bruh

[tawdry tree]

so there’s still time..

[fringe quarry]

no plushie gg

[austere creek]

or is it

[chilly mural]

mmmm

[solar tundra]

no wooting mouse

[tulip rapids]

hopefully the launch doesnt take as long as the 80he

[high lion]

woah

[devout torrent]

Q4 ship or preorder?

[high lion]

woah

[tidal frigate]

Where founders campaign

[austere creek]

its definitely more of a remaster than a remake

[tawdry tree]

it doesn’t make any sense

[fiery mauve]

https://tenor.com/view/the-rock-gif-23501265

[high lion]

aughh

i mean

[prime orbit]

Split spacebar is kinda cool

[high lion]

maybe these will be the best wooting switches so far

considering the closed bottom

[tawdry tree]

by far

[high lion]

if we compare to lekker v2 prob

[tawdry tree]

to most things on market rn

[oak jewel]

By far 🙂

[solar tundra]

PLS SOUNDTEST

[austere creek]

i think everyone who used them internally so far preferred them over other switches on the market

[tawdry tree]

Ti HEs but 4mm

[peak breach]

people have been asking for a 60he pro for a while now

[glacial wind]

there wasn't any pricing anywhere was there?

[tawdry tree]

not yet afaik

[peak breach]

nope

[glacial wind]

i'm curious what the new pricing is with stock alu case

[fringe quarry]

when 80HE v2

[solar tundra]

i hope its not 250-300 but it prob will

[glacial wind]

if they keep it reasonable still with stock alu case that's a big win

[high lion]

i really like the fact that they kept 4mm even with closed bottom its nice to get that longer feel especially with osu

[prime orbit]

7U split spacebar when

[red cape]

but why

[tulip rapids]

wheres wooting wrist rest v2?

[solar tundra]

i agree

[oak jewel]

[prime orbit]

Symmetrical

[lime yew]

Not the same sound profile though;)

[red cape]

So keyboard for OCD people? 😛

[prime orbit]

Yep

[tawdry tree]

interesting, so maybe not protruding magnet 👀

[prime orbit]

I’d buy one

[cursive void]

Maybe for people who use mouse left handed and have no room for the left side strap too. Idk

[tawdry tree]

it’s not even symmetrical, just a little more than 6.25

[prime orbit]

More symmetrical *

[fiery mauve]

did you hear the tiks just now? ;D

[tulip rapids]

do sound test plz calder

[ionic breach]

4mm closed?

[tulip rapids]

[ionic breach]

is the bottom flat?

[high lion]

shits crazy

[sacred elm]

[prime orbit]

The EZ80 is ass no?

[high lion]

anyone deadass dont even use rapid trigger just like the feel of magnetic switches

[quick finch]

it has more zeroes so it's better obviously

[cyan lark]

Dang, can't go back and forth between split/regular space on the same model

[red cape]

I feel like every person that asks that has no idea how ridiculously small 0.005 is. 0.1mm is already tiny amounts

[sacred elm]

wth is 0.005 bro 😭

[languid kestrel]

that's average user for you

[prime orbit]

Unf

[bronze grove]

Shame it's not a single PCB or split and regular.

[sacred elm]

its literally coronavirus size

[high lion]

0.005 is not even possible for stability

[solar tundra]

So you need to choose if you rly wanna go with Split Spacebar or nah

[fiery mauve]

yeah

[austere creek]

dont they all use deadzones anyway that are like 0.2mm or smth so that those super small settings are usable anyway

[solar tundra]

Thats L

[tawdry tree]

if stable, not ridiculous

big if

[untold wigeon]

thank god it's still gh60 compatible

[tulip rapids]

60he v2 makes me wanna cheat on my 60he+ 🫦

[fringe quarry]

oh it got jst?

[high lion]

is it even physically possible for that to be stable

wouldnt a gust of breath make it move 0.005

[cyan lark]

😭

[sacred elm]

Is silver color alu case available?

[untold wigeon]

[stark osprey]

Doesn't appear to have daughterboard compatibility

[high lion]

i thought this was two stickmen hugging

[tawdry tree]

not sure about 0.005 but like 0.03 is I think

[sacred elm]

Thanks Max

[tawdry tree]

def not

[stark osprey]

Kind of kills it for me

[untold wigeon]

i might buy the whole prebuilt

[high lion]

all of us yes ALL of us are getting the tikken switches

[devout torrent]

So sad

[calm pulsar]

the only interesting part for me is tikkens

[jade narwhal]

so where is switch selector😭

[tawdry tree]

@fluid ravine they precut friction pad for you 🥰

[high lion]

deadass 60he v2 will cost like 300 and no one buyin allat

just get tikkens

[bronze grove]

Module as always. 🙂

[red cape]

+1 week

[chilly mural]

LMAO

[tawdry tree]

man

[sacred elm]

[tulip rapids]

green wooting straps

[high lion]

wheres the alex comment

[tawdry tree]

good thing they’re going hard on improving build quality

[high lion]

i was hoping for a wooting numpad

[untold wigeon]

FR4

LET'S GOOO

FINALLYYYY FR4 😭

[languid kestrel]

I was hoping for a wooting nude calendar

always let down

[high lion]

kevin is mewing bro

[prime orbit]

Is fr4 thockier than POM?

[cyan lark]

Tick Tock it's Tikken time

[high lion]

fuck is fr4

[tulip rapids]

i woke up early for calder body pillow but i guess no news on that

[tawdry tree]

SILENT UPGRADES

[cyan lark]

Fire Resistant formula 4, of course.

[tawdry tree]

= SILENT?!!

🤣😭

[high lion]

i know that socket gonna be tight with that tolerance

pause

[tardy obsidian]

other than 60he v2

[tawdry tree]

“easier to get out of the 80HE”

[tardy obsidian]

did anything else come out

[tawdry tree]

literal lies

[high lion]

actual lies

[untold wigeon]

lie

LIEEEEE

[spiral canyon]

Stream hasn't ended yet

[sacred elm]

theres one more switch

dont forget

[high lion]

yeah geon raws

[sacred elm]

these are not geon raws

[tawdry tree]

SILENT

[tulip rapids]

ngl i thought that was geon

[high lion]

gateron clears

real

[red cape]

Those are early samples of Tikken

[sacred elm]

ah

[red cape]

before final colours

[sacred elm]

alright

[high lion]

i like the gray ngl

[solar tundra]

he is capping

[tulip rapids]

hes gonna do it

[high lion]

keycapping

[sacred elm]

wonder hows the wobble of these Tikken switches? is it better/worse than current popular options like Owlab TI's?

[tulip rapids]

i wonder if 60he v2 comes with travel case

[cyan lark]

4mm travel is pretty exciting to me. Miss it.

[calm pulsar]

I like 4mm travel since I switched to cherry mx blacks

[cyan lark]

Separate diffusers RIP

[prime orbit]

What does 4mm do vs 3.5mm?

[fiery mauve]

i hate typing on these short travel switches, its huge

[calm pulsar]

yeah it looks like the same diffuser since raws lol

[prime orbit]

Why?

[glacial wind]

but when is calder showing us the new knob

[fiery mauve]

typing on short travel switches feels like im being edged out of a full keystroke

[glacial wind]

do we have to wait for computex

[cyan lark]

More of a pain if you open them up

[jade narwhal]

tikken switch is more exciting for me than 60he v2 just bc of 4mm travel distance

[prime orbit]

Am I weird for not noticing it then? 😭

[prime orbit]

Ah okay so I’m chilling

[tawdry tree]

it’s a new stem mold so who knows

a separate diffuser so they can make Tikken recolors 💔

top housing in any color

@harsh dove black and yellow might be on the table still

[high lion]

isnt wobble harder to make better with longer switches

like total travel

or am i dummy

[tulip rapids]

screw in stabs

[tawdry tree]

don’t think so

[calm pulsar]

they were in your 80he

[tawdry tree]

maybe the case is separate?

[stray tiger]

Spring is new also with tighter/reduced variance during the full press

[glass comet]

so will the new 60he still be compatible with the tofu60 redux?

[untold wigeon]

yes

[tawdry tree]

ye

[untold wigeon]

it has the gh60 standoff holes

[tawdry tree]

OW60 works!!

[cyan lark]

https://tenor.com/view/arrested-development-david-cross-tobias-funke-there-are-dozens-of-us-dozens-gif-5426075

[ionic breach]

same length for springs?

[high lion]

sorry im not smart that means the weight while pressing the switch will feel even throughout whole press

[tawdry tree]

hopefully 20mm

[high lion]

thanks

thats kinda good

[tawdry tree]

idk if it was listed on the site or not

[high lion]

lekkers feel way heavier bottoming out

i dont like that

[tawdry tree]

even from switch to switch

[calm pulsar]

no

[untold wigeon]

i'm wondering the price now

[round sparrow]

thank woot, now it just needs to ship

[tawdry tree]

so prob 15mm 😭

[untold wigeon]

< $250?

[tawdry tree]

surelyyyy

[oak jewel]

More info soon

[tropic urchin]

No

[stray tiger]

Tikken have the lowest gram variance during press than other switches

[prime orbit]

They said the price isn’t finalized

[tawdry tree]

how much?

[prime orbit]

What does this mean for ur avg person

[tawdry tree]

consistent feel from switch to switch

[high lion]

they beat ttc koms

[cyan lark]

US about to get pounded

[prime orbit]

Ah so really good

[untold wigeon]

no founders?

[tawdry tree]

no founders

[prime orbit]

Fr huh 😭

[untold wigeon]

😩

[high lion]

glad im in europe rn

[prime orbit]

What is the best rn? Pom?

[tulip rapids]

do i have to wait till the end of the year for tikken switches?

[trail bane]

Dam that’s crazy ngl

[tawdry tree]

preference

[prime orbit]

No I meant for the variance

Which one is the lowest rn

[tawdry tree]

no clue

tikken according to thock

[prime orbit]

I have them don’t worry. I’m just curious

[untold wigeon]

no special role

[high lion]

what determines the gram variance of a switch in a spring

[prime orbit]

BRO

[tulip rapids]

CAKE

[prime orbit]

THE TIMING

ON THE PRICE

RIGJT

[solar tundra]

HE IS DODGING THE PRICE

[peak breach]

dont pull a nintendo wooting

[stray tiger]

Shorter travel is easier to keep consistent so doing it for full travel is the big change

[high lion]

NAH ITS OVER

SHIT GONNA COST 400

[prime orbit]

500

[oak jewel]

Just edging

[prime orbit]

Owlab was alr 399

200?

[prime orbit]

Ez

[tawdry tree]

small step up from 175

[untold wigeon]

269?

[cursive void]

I would guess 209

[solar tundra]

thats not small

[prime orbit]

219

[cyan lark]

$200-$240 not confirmed

[prime orbit]

100%

[untold wigeon]

209?

[minor hare]

so basically like the 60he+ but it has 8k polling?

[calm pulsar]

230

$1337

[high lion]

210 for 10 years

[languid kestrel]

1€ confirmed

[solar tundra]

219 sounds good tho

[prime orbit]

Wait that’s peak

[untold wigeon]

200-229 my guess

[chilly mural]

Aww, Alumn case only

[stark osprey]

That price target is with case I'm assuming?

[oak jewel]

Yes

[stark osprey]

Not offered in module only yet ?

[high lion]

why are they making lines

[prime orbit]

Pg13

[untold wigeon]

calder is sussy today

[high lion]

breaking bad

[glacial wind]

i would assume it'd be both module and stock like with 60he - probably a safe bet

[sacred elm]

when can we see new case on the website?

[oak jewel]

Unsure

[tulip rapids]

[cyan lark]

Hey not bad

[untold wigeon]

oooh

nice switches

not bad

[sacred elm]

Sounds good

[ionic breach]

60he+ v2 when

[tawdry tree]

lekker v1 better

[prime orbit]

Sounds p good

[chilly mural]

[untold wigeon]

the spacebar finally nice

wtf is this

[cyan lark]

Just a close up shot of his typing

[trail bane]

Will you replace me poor case

[high lion]

we violating lekkers

[glacial wind]

2nd sound test better, first one mic was a bit too close and it muffled the sound a bit

[cyan lark]

Sounds chill though, no bad sounds coming out.

[chilly mural]

At least we'll have Sander do the sound test in the coming months

[prime orbit]

Next week I think

[prime orbit]

Oh shoot

Didn’t even know

Cool

[cursive void]

I just don't live in Taiwan sooo

lMAO

[cyan lark]

Well, 64% next time I guess

[prime orbit]

Yeah me either

I’m good

[crimson sky]

and proceed to sleep on the street

[cyan lark]

Restart the clock

[polar girder]

Q4 release?

Closed bottom 4.0mm travel is crazy

[calm pulsar]

best thing announced

[cyan lark]

👂

[stray tiger]

Best thing announced so far

[jade narwhal]

trueeeeeeee

[crimson sky]

FRA to taipei is just 700€

totally worth it

[cyan lark]

Wow, matching lekker pricing for tikken

[prime orbit]

Can you explain to a noob why the travel matters on closed bottom? It was only an open bottom thing?

[calm pulsar]

it just matters in general for analog boards, for some people

[untold wigeon]

are the NEO LAVENDER HE HALL EFFECT switches any good?

[calm pulsar]

closed vs open bottom is just sound and feel

[prime orbit]

I’m just confused why everyone is so hyped 😭 I’m dumb

[cyan lark]

Some also just like the feel of 4mm travel

[prime orbit]

Does it do anything for gaming?

[calm pulsar]

so far manufacturers achieved closed bottom by reducing travel

[cursive void]

Split Spacebar cool but kinda ugly

[calm pulsar]

now we can have full travel with closed bottom

[tawdry tree]

shorter travel was a byproduct of closed bottom magnetic switches. full travel allows for more control.

SPLIT SPACE IS NOT OPTIONAL?!

[cyan lark]

Nope

[fiery mauve]

separate skus

[high lion]

feels good and shit

[prime orbit]

So they basically just eliminated the only con?

[tawdry tree]

LOL

[solar tundra]

Thats a L for me

[tawdry tree]

BIGGEST L WOOT

[calm pulsar]

holyyy shit

😭

[cursive void]

Split is its own board. You pick beforehand

[tawdry tree]

yeah ts is atrocious

[prime orbit]

Split space is peak. I’m gonna get that

[tawdry tree]

4 FUCKING SKUs

WHAT THE FUCK?!

[prime orbit]

Why would it not be a different board? It legit adds stabs…..

[cyan lark]

Collect them all?

[prime orbit]

It would be impossible on a normal one

[tawdry tree]

because it doesn’t need to be

bro I can’t man

[prime orbit]

I don’t think it would be possible on a normal one

[tulip rapids]

ayoo

[austere creek]

it needs to be 4 skus to sell 4 items

[tulip rapids]

white colour 🤯

[high lion]

do all wootings have aluminium case

[tawdry tree]

it’s already done

[untold wigeon]

white

[tawdry tree]

by numerous companies

[calm pulsar]

okay I was upset cause no tsangan and stuff but this is crazy

[cyan lark]

Stabs just require holes

[tawdry tree]

self nerfing

[prime orbit]

Oh well I take it back lmao

[tawdry tree]

big L

[cursive void]

80HE and 60HE v2 yes, rest no

[tawdry tree]

bro this is insane

[untold wigeon]

but the normal ansi can use split spacebar in the future?

[tulip rapids]

bright silver wow

[untold wigeon]

or u need different pcb?

[paper bloom]

BRO PREBUILD ALU

[tawdry tree]

nobody is gonna go for split space if they’re locked into split space

[paper bloom]

IS INSANE

[prime orbit]

Idk I don’t think it’s that bad. Just choose if you want to try something new lol

[chilly mural]

Gonna go for ISO split spacebar. Shuffle around backspace, Enter, and backslash key. Then it's going to be a nice rhythm game board.

[cursive void]

different PCB

[cyan lark]

^

[tawdry tree]

LOL

[austere creek]

so everyone should buy 1 keyboard and then solder the ansi/iso enter sensors themselves on the right position and then assembled the stabs they want split or not for a good out of the box experience?

[red cape]

Having split and not split on same PCBA is cool for a pcb only product, but for an assembled or module with plate, it's a different story

[prime orbit]

I am

[calm pulsar]

at least silver case looks nice

[solar tundra]

icl, i dont see the point to spend that much money just to have 8k polling its not like a huge difference no

[tulip rapids]

https://tenor.com/view/silver-surfer-surf-surfing-marvel-gif-9153389

[solar tundra]

The only point is for split spacebar

[paper bloom]

Maybe its time i cop another WOOTING

[tawdry tree]

not solder brother, use your big brain tony

[paper bloom]

AFTER THIS 80HE

[cursive void]

the silver looks nice

[high lion]

8k polling is just good marketing

[austere creek]

its 4 skus cause they come preassembled my man

[tawdry tree]

4 SKUs is crazy tho

[glacial wind]

oh that new metal case looks nice

with the silver

[solar tundra]

Is the Friction Pad the same as the Optimum?

[tawdry tree]

oh so a single PCB supports both?

[ionic breach]

2 for modules?

[tulip rapids]

damn i wonder what the white case looks like but damn this silver case though

[ionic breach]

ye

[solar tundra]

I heared the Friction Pad isnt good for the Tofu60 or was it bs?

[austere creek]

i think the module also comes preassembled with stabs but im not sure. if it comes with stabs preinstalled it would be 4

[cyan lark]

This would be great to know

[prime orbit]

I use it. Perfectly fine

[cursive void]

they said it should be fine but worst case you can still screw

[austere creek]

the modules im actually not informed on though

[untold wigeon]

so 100% there is no special role for 60he v2 right?

[austere creek]

so /shrug

[prime orbit]

Is the strap part flush when you switch it out for the no strap part?

[red cape]

They are separate PCBAs

[ionic breach]

oh damn

[tawdry tree]

not just great, it’s the only way for people to experience split space without this great commitment

[little glen]

[tulip rapids]

theres no date for tikken switches correct?

[ionic breach]

[little glen]

Do we know typing angle yet

[bronze grove]

So to clarify. You're locked into split or no split? You cannot swap it with mods?

[tawdry tree]

if you haven’t tried split space, why the heck would spend $220 for a split space board

[left depot]

together with the v2

[tulip rapids]

ty fren

[storm axle]

any plans on selling a fr4 plate for the 80he aswell

[tawdry tree]

@bronze grove according to this, no.

locked in

[cursive void]

I kinda wish the OW60 has a Brass place instead of Carbon Fibre

[tawdry tree]

can’t swap

[chilly mural]

mmm, where ISO 60he v2

[austere creek]

no according to that the reason there is 4 skus is mainly cause we sell 4 different products for people to use OUT OF THE BOX

[cursive void]

it will be sold

[austere creek]

i made 0 comments on if you can switch later that are confirmed

[red cape]

ISO gang (yes)

[chilly mural]

need pic

[glacial wind]

the knob confirmed

[tawdry tree]

so are people locked into split space?

[untold wigeon]

A single knob?

[ionic breach]

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

[high lion]

wtf knob

[ionic breach]

KNOB

[chilly mural]

YEAHHH

[tawdry tree]

you said solder the sensors, I’d assume that means the board doesn’t come with the sensors.

[gusty patio]

i thought it was just how the board would be assembled and what keys come with it

[ionic breach]

its not cancelled

[chilly mural]

KNOB

[austere creek]

i said that cause then its only 1 sku

[solar tundra]

For what do you need a knob

what is a knob

[austere creek]

where you assemble the difference yourself

[fallow sail]

a

[cyan lark]

small knob
BIG KNOB

[red cape]

omg guys, the split spacebar and normal spacebar are separate pcbas pls

[austere creek]

@peak breach not in that tone

[peak breach]

sowwy

[tawdry tree]

LOL

[peak breach]

dont lie

[paper bloom]

LOL

[austere creek]

ok but can one install a normal spacebar on the split spacebar pcb

[bronze grove]

Simon keeps dodging around the question 😄

[tulip rapids]

wooting knob....knoobting

[cursive void]

no

[bronze grove]

https://tenor.com/view/ultra-instinct-weave-splits-fight-gif-23224170

[calm pulsar]

chat what is the
what is the thockiest SKU for 60he v2

[red cape]

Uhhhhhhh, I'm not actually sure on that one

[tawdry tree]

the main conflicts of that split space is that the sensor of 1.25 U conflicts with 6.25U

[ionic breach]

[storm axle]

What how would the knob work?

[ionic breach]

alr nw

[high lion]

kevin still mewing

[lime yew]

https://wooting.io/knobs

[tawdry tree]

this is the funniest shit

[cyan lark]

Magnets

[high lion]

wait so there might be still something announced

coping

nvm

its over

[tawdry tree]

forced split space

[storm axle]

so you can use it with any wooting keyboard?

[languid kestrel]

yes (ARM)

[glacial wind]

What did I tell you - the moistening always delivers.

[cursive void]

Bruh I thought they would reply to chat when they said Live QnA

[bronze grove]

Any HE based Wooting, yes

[calm pulsar]

15 new SKUs for different knob and strap support

[chilly mural]

HOLY SHIT IS IS ACCURATE

[austere creek]

they did

[storm axle]

pog

[tawdry tree]

I’m fucking dead

[tulip rapids]

woah woah gang signs

[bronze grove]

They have been. Sander's been grabbing questions from chat and posed them.

[oak jewel]

big knob

[cursive void]

Felt like they only replied to the prize question

[tulip rapids]

at wooting ?😭

[tawdry tree]

always the SKU talk and now 4SKUs 😭😭

[storm axle]

bro casualy leaking but un noticed

[glacial wind]

This is why you trust the church of the sony lens and not the jakubix church

[ionic breach]

@left depot

[cyan lark]

👋

[ionic breach]

damn u were right abt the goodies at the end

[solar tundra]

Can you place a normal Spacebar Keycap on the Split Spacebar PCB

[languid kestrel]

no

[solar tundra]

Why not

Just remove the 2 Switches

[languid kestrel]

because no switch there

no stab there

[austere creek]

there is a middle switch

[tawdry tree]

woot can’t do what other companies already did

[austere creek]

just not center apparently

[glacial wind]

the moistening x sony church has an actual 100% prediction accuracy

[tulip rapids]

now i can sleep

[tawdry tree]

it’s not in the center

[austere creek]

but i know most spacebar caps have 2 middle stems

[languid kestrel]

yes, so no switch there

[tawdry tree]

that’s the whole point

[prime orbit]

Just remove the switch no?

[tulip rapids]

https://tenor.com/view/exhausted-goku-dragon-ball-tired-faint-gif-11726508

[tawdry tree]

does not align

[tidal frigate]

@austere creek can we atleast change split to 6.25u

[high lion]

align like aligner

[cyan lark]

😆

[high lion]

woahhewgogwrt4wrge

[solar tundra]

What if i use by Spacebar without Stab and just put it on the Middle Switch

[tawdry tree]

LMFAO

[peak breach]

then it would seesaw

[tawdry tree]

I have my pitchfork out again

[solar tundra]

Man we are cooked

[storm axle]

damn now i have buyers remorse over my owlabs ti he

[tawdry tree]

but this time it’s even more valid than last

[solar tundra]

You need to decide if you want Split Spacebar or nah

Shit

i guess its time for something new

[high lion]

idk bruh shi deadass mid ts pmo ong on lebron i dslik nm cd tbh

[tawdry tree]

no one is taking that risk

[glacial wind]

could still be awhile before the new switches are available so i wouldn't be sad about that

[solar tundra]

the split spacebar risk?

[spiral canyon]

I don't see a reason to get a full spacebar honestly

[tawdry tree]

yeah

[prime orbit]

I legit am…. So much better

[languid kestrel]

keycap compatibility would be one

[prime orbit]

Legit 😭😭

[stray tiger]

Don't worry, still good switches. There will always be better stuff coming but you have one of the best for now

[peak breach]

so there is no difference between the knobs right?

[tawdry tree]

have you ever used it?

[solar tundra]

I mean why you want 1 big key instead of 3 smaller ones

[tidal frigate]

6.25 looks better

[high lion]

why are we making full spacebar something not normal

[glossy pagoda]

We've decided with very little consideration to call them "cracked" keycaps

[kindred lagoon]

can't wait to give the new knobs a spin next year

🥁💥

[prime orbit]

Nope. Don’t need to. I like the way it looks and I only use one side of it anyway so why not

[languid kestrel]

because a big spacebar sucks

[solar tundra]

I think im gonna buy the Split Spacebar just to have 2 extra keybinds i can use

[glacial wind]

missed opportunity to let them join the moist collection.

[tawdry tree]

then you don’t know if you’ll like it

[gusty patio]

knob is cool but i dont even know where to put that on a 60he if i could? lol nice for my 80he though

[spiral canyon]

Spacebar will be split into 2.75, 2.25 and 1.25, so LShift, RShift and mod key, so still compatible with tons of sets

[high lion]

smhhh

[glossy pagoda]

Escape key is a great spot

[languid kestrel]

but then you don't have your shift keys

[gusty patio]

hmm

[languid kestrel]

if you put them where the spacebar is supposed to be

[tidal frigate]

Huge L. No 6.25u no buy

[tulip rapids]

hey father random question. with geon switches people recommend to get stem spacers or long pole stabs. For tikken will stock stabs be enough or do you suggest stem spacers or long pole stabs

[red cape]

There was a discussion around doing the split spacebar approach which would allow a shared PCBA, but we wanted the specific split we went for, which meant we had to do separate

[tidal frigate]

[prime orbit]

I like how it looks. It performs as a spacebar. I’m good.

[tawdry tree]

this is a ridiculous point as well, I get it but by that reason any layout is good.

[stray tiger]

Won't need any spacers period

[languid kestrel]

I don't get how that is a solution honestly

[prime orbit]

Most keycap sets come with extras. Every one of mine did

[gusty patio]

yeah that could work i guess 🤔

[kindred lagoon]

It's funny because i've seen 10u spacebars in boards that support 7U shift layouts

[tulip rapids]

ty father 🌹

[languid kestrel]

not extras of the same exact keycap though

[prime orbit]

Yes?

Like what

[spiral canyon]

Not all sets, true
Still compatible with more sets than 65/75 so...

[prime orbit]

Lmao

[languid kestrel]

extras in the sense that there might be a 1.25u shift and 1.75u shift for split shift

[prime orbit]

My last 3 sets had 3 of the same keycap for shift

[tawdry tree]

hire me, $1 a month. I’ll sign an NDA and share my opinion (great) on new products.

[languid kestrel]

but not just 10 2.25u extra shifts lmao

[prime orbit]

So idk

[tawdry tree]

not even joking

[glossy pagoda]

@tawdry tree sold

[tidal frigate]

Guys lets cancel wooting for no 6.25u.compability

[tawdry tree]

does anyone at woot use split space even?

[tawdry tree]

🥰🥰

[red cape]

I use ISO split

[spiral canyon]

Y'all wanna bankrupt?

[red cape]

ISO gang rise up

[glossy pagoda]

🦗

[sacred elm]

ansi superior layout

[tawdry tree]

did you press space with your left or right thumb before?

[tidal frigate]

Eww iso layout

[chilly mural]

Send 60he v2 iso pic pls

I wanna bask in its greatness

[stray tiger]

Oh Lord here comes Aligners 64% idea

[red cape]

Mainly left thumb, sometimes right

[round sparrow]

yay knob real

tony you dirty liar

[snow yarrow]

Is this the firmware simon? 👀

[tawdry tree]

F and J center your hands on the board right?

we agree on that?

[austere creek]

we only got one sadly. a second simon like our current one would be nice

[calm pulsar]

aligner and his crazy ideas: having 1 pcb for split and normal spacebar

[high lion]

the thockfather give me your best HE switches and i will order them on ali

[red cape]

In theory yes, but I have fucky muscle memory for my typing, I never learned to type "properly"

[high lion]

the tikkens are gonna take time anyways

[uneven cradle]

Two Simons would be good

[red cape]

It's Wootility Web Simon 👁️

[storm axle]

how bout something similar to the friction silicone to the 80HE poron foam in the middle with silicone for the gasket mount thing

[austere creek]

ah multiple personalities

[snow yarrow]

Much love to og simon, I have a lot of respect for great firmware developers

[tawdry tree]

let’s say that’s the optimal way to place your hands. if you look at F and J, and then at left and right space bars, do you notice something?

[stray tiger]

Tikken's but not available yet. Those are my current fav/best. Otherwise get the Owlab TI HE's for budget or the TTC's off Wooting for performance

[prime orbit]

Is this bias or true

[stray tiger]

It's always bias

[prime orbit]

[high lion]

ttc ooff wooting is definitely bias

[prime orbit]

Fair

[tawdry tree]

would it be understandable why 2.75 - 1.25 - 2.25 aren’t done but rather 2.25 - 1.25 - 2.75?

[gusty patio]

does this one go here? it seems really big

[high lion]

but ima get the owlabs into my cart

[prime orbit]

For performance? I thought it didn’t affect performance

[snow yarrow]

Its not, theyre awesome switches

[sacred elm]

no, it goes in the middle

knob keyboard

[stray tiger]

Yes

[tawdry tree]

it’s backwards compatible with AMR

[tidal frigate]

Yes it goes there

[storm axle]

thats for wasd you move by dial

[gusty patio]

i see

[high lion]

wish i could get them in packs of 20

would ttc poms be a alternative

[gusty patio]

pretty cool then

[tidal frigate]

@stray tiger does knob emulates wheel?

[cyan lark]

lol knob steering

[stray tiger]

Can't talk about knob yet but I'm sure more info is coming really really soon

[tidal frigate]

Yes

[storm axle]

wait so we can actually now do all knob keys

[tidal frigate]

Yes

[storm axle]

the most impractical keyboard pog

[mental salmon]

“Wooting 60NOBs”

[red cape]

I think I see what you're getting at 😛

[quasi hinge]

Is the knob compatible with old boards?

[prime orbit]

How are TTC better for performance? Just curious

[high lion]

might be the most expensive keyboared made

[red cape]

big knob

[tawdry tree]

it’s not terrible per se but not optimal, just pains me

[high lion]

boared

[tawdry tree]

not being optional even more so

[glacial wind]

what if the secret of the knobs is that it's a fidget spinner for gen z that rotates on the z axis

[tawdry tree]

that’s just mental imo

[stray tiger]

Lowest wobble if that matters to you

[snow yarrow]

Yes, but i personally much prefer the wooting ttc's, they have slightly heavier springs at 55gf bottom out

[prime orbit]

So lower wobble better for gaming. Aah ok

[storm axle]

time to buy 90 small knobs

[chilly mural]

$5 per knob

[sacred elm]

On wooting you get smaller bottom deadzone with stable switches like TTC

[storm axle]

small price to pay for greatness

[cyan lark]

Yes

[stray tiger]

It's not even noticeable honestly. Id rate the TI's on par with them.

[high lion]

fym 1000 pieces

[quasi hinge]

Hallelujah, thank you captain!

[prime orbit]

So wouldn’t the tikken be better when they come out?

[round sparrow]

hope the knobs comes in multiple colors

[mental salmon]

Personal preference, that heavier spring bottom out is why I am replacing the Wooting POMs with the TIs, but always is fun to try new switches that does not sound like og lekkers

[quasi hinge]

Wooting knob enjoyer 😂

[stray tiger]

Yup

[fallen pecan]

@gaunt plume new gateron switch https://detail.tmall.com/item.htm?id=925197324952

[prime orbit]

Tikken will be insanely stable right,

[prime orbit]

Oh bet

Guess I’m getting them

[quasi hinge]

Ill right there in line to buy the knob

Sign me up

[sacred elm]

I dont know, hard to beat box stem

[prime orbit]

Until some company releases another switch that people say are the goat after 2 days. Then I get stuck in a loop of buying new switches every week

[snow yarrow]

Im also stuck in the trying out new switches for fun cycle 😭

[sacred elm]

It doesnt matter honestly

[stray tiger]

I gotta go get breakfast. I'll bbl

[ionic breach]

they better sell the knobs in switch batches quantity

[sacred elm]

Tikkens will be good enough

[quasi hinge]

Any cost on the knob?

[glacial wind]

nah

[fallen pecan]

prolly a pom recolor, kom sun god

[prime orbit]

I just get the best for gaming at the time. So TTC Pom atm because of the wobble I guess

[snow yarrow]

I feel like most he switches released in 2025 have great stability compared to older ones, atleast the ones i tried this year

[fallen pecan]

denggod pro max coming out in 2 days

[cyan lark]

Not many details on knobs. Small and big, both have buttons, and are backwards compatible.

[glacial wind]

i like that calder was so scared of leaking he almost forgot to talk about the planned knob part

[fallen pecan]

new kom rgb recolor

[calm pulsar]

sheesh

[high lion]

we need more 4mm switches

[round sparrow]

those look good

[high lion]

yes WE

[storm axle]

also is the final ver of the tikken with the removable rgb diffuser thing or is that just on the prototypes?

[sacred elm]

Probably but you need to hand lube them and then still they are not the best feeling switches out there, popular switches right now have very small wobble already and they feel better. I would get those new Tikken switches if I was ordering now

[high lion]

are the specs out there

[tawdry tree]

snake recolor ye

[snow yarrow]

TTC taking a page from gaterons playbook eh

[quasi hinge]

I just want to say thank you to the Wooting team for developing the knob. I am eternally grateful for its development and that it is backwards compatible

[fallen pecan]

nah

[prime orbit]

OK cool I’ll get them. Thx

[quasi hinge]

My hat off to you guys

[high lion]

shit im blind

[tulip rapids]

https://tenor.com/view/punya-gw-gif-21591247

w wooting knob

[quasi hinge]

I wear the wooting tag proudly

I can finally get rid of my separate volume knob

Finally

[fallen pecan]

specs

[glacial wind]

poor erix got gaslit into now needing to write a 4 page essay

[ionic breach]

🫡

[calm pulsar]

I take it it's some board exclusive?

[prime orbit]

SHHHH BRO

[round sparrow]

wooting knob between the split space bars 😂

[prime orbit]

He hasn’t said anything

[fallen pecan]

yep custom recolor,~~ don't recognize the brand~~ Gravastar

[quasi hinge]

Someone please tell the knob is not delayed till Q4 also

[tulip rapids]

i cant wait to get the knob just so my cat can jump on my desk mid comp match and by mistake kick the knob blasting my in game volume and i go deaf

[round sparrow]

q1 2026

[quasi hinge]

Is that real lol

[round sparrow]

yes

[snow yarrow]

Q6 2025

[prime orbit]

So can this knob be made into a custom stream desk maybe?

WootingDeck

[quasi hinge]

Cant tell if trolling

[quasi hinge]

Damn what dimension is that lol

[chilly mural]

It's real

q1 2026

[sullen salmon]

new keyboard seems a little unnecessary

[prime orbit]

Wrong

[sullen salmon]

65 or 75 would've been nice

[prime orbit]

8k

Needed

[sullen salmon]

8k is for delulus

[prime orbit]

Placebo pill

[fallen pecan]

that board with the spider legs

[sullen salmon]

you can do majority of those mods with the current 60

[quasi hinge]

I have to wait a year for the knob?

[chilly mural]

time to see what the OEM maker going to do about the knob and split spacebar

[glacial wind]

there's an official page for it https://wooting.io/knobs

[calm pulsar]

mama

[sullen salmon]

should've jus updated the PCB

[quasi hinge]

Thank you kind sir

[mental salmon]

I still need more time to decide if I will get the regular space bar or split space bar module

[little glen]

I cant believe wooting employee called me a knob

[prime orbit]

Wonder if they will make a housing kit for multiple knobs. That would be cool.

[snow yarrow]

IS THIS KNOOB COMPATIBLE WITH MY MADLIONS PCB ??

[fallen pecan]

oh man next year

[tulip rapids]

bruh what this bird tweeting about

[chilly mural]

6 months is plenty of time

[lyric nimbus]

yall

[tropic urchin]

What the fuck

I want that

[lyric nimbus]

why do people care about split spacebars

[tropic urchin]

💀💀💀

[lyric nimbus]

is there a good reason behind it?

[prime orbit]

Looks cool

And I wanna be different so ima get it

[mental salmon]

I want to try the split thing for gaming, but not sure how it will look with the 2 shifts in place

[prime orbit]

Look goated

Trust

[tulip rapids]

did i miss the owlab case raffle?

[snow yarrow]

People are excited that they finally can use the spacebars from their gmk kits

[calm pulsar]

this would've been cool to try out but you're forced into split spacebar on one pcb☠️

[tawdry tree]

woot’s keycap set includes the bars

[tawdry tree]

utility, 2 extra buttons and one for your thumb specifically

[fallen pecan]

this is the one that's coming with the new switch, still has legs

[prime orbit]

I’m hoping because of it coming in q4 it gives time to have companies make split bar specific keycaps

[mental salmon]

Yes, but I will not use their keycap set, but something from drop or gmk, maybe the space bars are there already but I never realized, I will check some boxes later

[chilly mural]

I mean, FBB caps seems to already support it from what I've looked at

[tawdry tree]

most GMK childs “bars” include them

[snow yarrow]

Id like to hear more about the improved sensor implementation on all their boards tbh, what was that about

[solar tundra]

Guys do we havy any Cons on the Split Spacebar like why not, you get 1 (2) extra Keys you can use and while i game i only use left site of the spacebar

It might be new Meta

[prime orbit]

Idk I’m getting it

I only use the left side anyway

Gives me another key to use

So w

[marble sierra]

Does the 60HE V2 fit in the OwLab 60% case

[solar tundra]

Yes

[cyan lark]

extra 2 keys*

[prime orbit]

Oh true the middle one too

This a no brainer wtf

[solar tundra]

for typing its kinda shit to only have left spacebar i think

[mental salmon]

They sail it will work with it, with the Optimum Case and the Alumaze as well

[chilly mural]

60hev2 prop going to be my main rhythm game board just because of the split spacebar. Maybe I can put raeds on it like what I imagine I want to do with venom 60he.

[prime orbit]

You can have the right one be a spacebar still….

[cyan lark]

Yeah I use both thumbs while typing

[prime orbit]

It’s peak

[gloomy fractal]

Wooting Knobs before GTA VI is wild...

[solar tundra]

Yeah thats why i said 1 (2) more Keys

[prime orbit]

Have both be spacebar still

[marble sierra]

Okay good I'll wait to buy a 60% keyboard then as just got the OwLab 60% case purchased

[cedar gate]

V2 has knobs?

[cyan lark]

The center button I can see using possibly, but not sure when I'd ever make use of right spacebar being mapped to anything but space

Like while gaming I only use left thumb for space, but right hand is on mouse anyway

[prime orbit]

For me I’m Gonna use it as a cs2 smoke bind

[cyan lark]

Just gonna stretch left thumb to the right side?

[solar tundra]

But im still not rly sure if i rly NEED the Upgrade from a 60He+ to a 60he v2

[trail bane]

Wotafaq

[prime orbit]

Ye

I mean it’s angled enough

[polar girder]

So for existing 60HE owners that don’t want split space, the only upgrade is 8k

[cedar gate]

Anyway I was super skeptical of the V2 but it's actually pretty cool. Has all the extra mods I made but in built so non modders can access too

[prime orbit]

Or just make the middle one in between to be the bind

Right next to it

Not that bad

[polar girder]

This seems like a new upgrade for new Wooting customers but not necessarily a big deal for current Wooting customers

[high nymph]

Please sell the PET fim separately

[trail bane]

Bruh one more to collect

[red cape]

Raeds are a cool office switch, I don't think I'd use them for gaming (unless you don't use rapid trigger)

[solar tundra]

Imo the biggest W is that the Standard Quality of the 60HE (V2) gets better

[prime orbit]

Nah it’s absolutely needed. 8k. Placebo pill

[cyan lark]

Friction fit mount (if you didn't get one)... but yeah I think that's about it

[polar girder]

Fair. True

[solar tundra]

Just buy the Friction Pad and you have it already?

[chilly mural]

I don't, I just set the actuation to static 3.5mm because it gives the same feeling as RT (only need to lift 0.5mm before having to press down again) while having a static point where the key actuate.

[solar tundra]

Or is it a different one?

[cyan lark]

I imagine it's the same

[snow yarrow]

New friction pad will have poron for alpha keys

[solar tundra]

Wait is the Friction Pad in V2 a different one than the Optimum

No right

[snow yarrow]

So silicone around the edges and poron in the middle, if i understood correctly

[undone sentinel]

noticed that the metal foam placement has been changed in the v2 case, and the shape of the bottom screw pillars has also been altered. Will the Optimum case incorporate these design changes in future updates？

[solar tundra]

Nah its the same

[snow yarrow]

Its a different one, but same size

[solar tundra]

Are you 100% sure

I think its the same

[sullen salmon]

hoping they release a 65 or 75 instead cuz I'm craving arrow keys but the 80 was not it for me

[gaunt plume]

Oh, thank you!
I didn't realize that it was on sale at all

[snow yarrow]

Im 99% sure, they mentioned it twice i think

[high lion]

can i terraform 20% lekker v2 discount into a future 20% tikken discount 😩

[sacred elm]

60he v2 will have way better stock experience (sound,feel) and 8k is just cherry on top

[sullen salmon]

missed opportunity by not just making the 60hev2 a 65 and then updating the 60

at least imo i feel like surely more people would be interested in a new layout on top of the improvements

[snow yarrow]

New friction pad should look something like this

[tidal frigate]

Wooting dosent like 75% and 65%

[sullen salmon]

so I've heard which is dookie that's my favourite 2 layouts

80 looks goofy

[foggy scroll]

Isn’t this just a complicated way of saying you wanted the 65 released before the updated 60?

[cedar gate]

Just heard a sound test the 60HE v2 is imo without a doubt the best sounding HE board stock and better than almost all stock MX boards

[sullen salmon]

maybe...

[storm axle]

can we have this with the 80he

silicone gasket mount thing with poron middle

[sullen salmon]

but from a market standpoint it seems it would appeal to a wider range of people

[tidal frigate]

Well even if you pay founders atleast 10mil Each they will never make 75%

[sullen salmon]

is there a reason or they're just not a fan

[sacred elm]

You can do it yourself, get poron foam and cut 80he stock silicon, then replace it with a foam

[tidal frigate]

Ask calder your self

[sullen salmon]

someone get the big man himself in here

[snow yarrow]

Thats the new friction pad @solar tundra

[storm axle]

dont wanna do that really since if i mess it up they arent selling replacement of the silicone only

[peak breach]

They dont like the layout

80he is good

[sacred elm]

Hard to mess it up really

You just cut silicon for alpha keys

and replace it with foam

[sullen salmon]

not liking a layout is valid but i feel like there's surely quite a decent market

[peak breach]

Meh

[sullen salmon]

that they would appeal to

[foggy scroll]

65 is a weird spot that minimizes keys and minimizes customization
Better to do the 80 for people that want more and the 60 for people who want custom

[peak breach]

There is not enough space saved between the 80 and 75 also the 80 doesnt run into keycap compatibility issues

[storm axle]

have you perhaps done it can you send me a pic of yours?

[kindred lagoon]

I mean it's nice at least that I can just use a regular TKL keycap set without worrying about layout support

[sullen salmon]

that's fair

idk i jus think the 80 looks mad ugly

can't disgrace my beautiful setup with it

[peak breach]

Get a 60

[sullen salmon]

I've got a 60

i miss arrow keys

[sacred elm]

I have not, but Cam has done it with his 80he. You cut this area and replace it with a poron foam.

[sullen salmon]

I'm just odd

[kindred lagoon]

I also think they should have just went with the good ole TKL but eh, I can live with it

[sullen salmon]

i would've preferred that over 80 i think

[uneven cradle]

Mod tap them back in

[kindred lagoon]

Can't wait for 35HE with only most of the alpha block

[sullen salmon]

you sick individual

[storm axle]

aight thnx

[peak breach]

Personally im glad they didnt go with a tkl or a 75 even though at the beginning i wanted the latter
