[solar tundra]

a small amount more than the 60he rn no one knows

[tawdry tree]

so base sets include the spaces you need

not sure if your sets fall under that

[glacial wind]

not the sets i own

[tawdry tree]

sadge

[untold wigeon]

massachusetts

[torpid crow]

this wouldnt be an issue for me bc my only mods to my wooting are lubed stabs

everything else is stock

[untold wigeon]

yeah ofc

[solar tundra]

prob 220-240€

[torpid crow]

i... guess i'll try out the split spacebar?

[untold wigeon]

is that 250$ in usd?

[ionic breach]

Silver Iso Split Spacebar would be like 0.5% of the sales ngl

[glacial wind]

i like that the number keeps changing cause no one knows

[tidal frigate]

Well, if tarrifs wont go away you will pay alot

[solar tundra]

yeah maybe

[chilly mural]

This is soo much pain

[untold wigeon]

don't cry

it's okay

[solar tundra]

but we dont know a price yet

[glacial wind]

we don't know. Basically calder said they want to try keep it to a small price increase but not how much

[tawdry tree]

I am too

[untold wigeon]

worth the 8khz though

[tawdry tree]

all split space enjoyers cry together

[glacial wind]

also there's the whole tariffs thing for US so who knows if US will be same pricing

[little glen]

rare collector's item

[untold wigeon]

alright

[calm pulsar]

can 7u enjoyers join

on the crying sesh

[chilly mural]

With soo much moot talk I think I'm going to just spend my money on rhythm game controller.

[untold wigeon]

i ordered venom 7u after i felt not satisfied with the 60he v2

[glacial wind]

the way their government is working right now the tariff pricing could change 3 times by end of the year lol

[tawdry tree]

with open arms brother

🥲😭

[chilly mural]

or a better monitor

[tidal frigate]

That's why they didnt gave us pricing

[calm pulsar]

😭

[tropic urchin]

I’m not an enjoyer yet but I’ll join the cry

[solar tundra]

Did someone from the Wooting Team said why it was not possible to implement 1 Spacebar and Split Spacebar on one PCB?

[calm pulsar]

ill just build my venom 7u in leggera

[solar tundra]

Or can you just not do it?

[untold wigeon]

same

[lofty fox]

gotta wait even longer for knobs than i did for the 80he 😭

[untold wigeon]

i ordered leggera from tb already

[tropic urchin]

FLUXIES

AHHH

PLS

[untold wigeon]

next week it will arrive

and i will use rawhuks

[tropic urchin]

🥺

[glacial wind]

#🔧│keyboard_modding message

[chilly mural]

Now I'm wishing for woot numpad

[tropic urchin]

2028 release

[untold wigeon]

nah, i prefer to get a 65he rather than the 60he v2

[calm pulsar]

got any of them rubles

[untold wigeon]

ngl, i will purchase the wooting 65he even tho i hate the layout

[ionic breach]

ngl they probably should have done it still

[tropic urchin]

I would’ve slid $20-30 if it wasn’t a pain to get you it 😂

[untold wigeon]

where did u purchased the leggera

[solar tundra]

cause they wouldve produce new switch plates and pads or what

[ionic breach]

just one pcba and both plates for the module

[tropic urchin]

Go to woods in Tarkov and I’ll leave you some USD

[calm pulsar]

havent yet, but I will likely on aliexpress

[tawdry tree]

the argument is void if you look and Hemu imo.

they have done it

[calm pulsar]

i get my salary in usdt
but nah im joking, I will order some with leggera

[tawdry tree]

and are mainstream

[untold wigeon]

the black stock on the web sold out already

[tawdry tree]

rather than niche like rakka

[tropic urchin]

My goat 🥹

[tawdry tree]

you only need 1 plate and 1 pcb

[ionic breach]

if they bought module they are alr fine with a bit of tinkering

[calm pulsar]

a bit later though, dont want it to be sent back cause im on vacation

[tropic urchin]

No rush hehe

[solar tundra]

Wait if Wooting would done it on 1 PCB, they couldve released Stuff that only they sell, like Plate, Pad and would make even more Money

[ionic breach]

im not sure abt the logistics, im just assuming their current situation with 2 plates for each split or not

[tidal frigate]

Yt comments

[solar tundra]

Cause other Plates and Stuff are not compatible with it

[untold wigeon]

let's just stop talking about the controversy 60he v2

[tawdry tree]

ic

[tawdry tree]

hot topic

[calm pulsar]

geon be praised🙏

[tropic urchin]

Rakka clears

[little glen]

guy that gets all his info from undisclosed sponsored tiktok videos

[untold wigeon]

[tropic urchin]

Rakka tikki tikken when

[tawdry tree]

I’m really happy with the switches

[ionic breach]

ngl i wouldnt even have minded if they took out the rgbs in the spacebar for it

[little glen]

lekker tikken masala when

[tawdry tree]

tikken good

[untold wigeon]

i would appreciate that as well

[solar tundra]

Yeah i mean me personal would always buy Wooting but there will be def a brand dropping 60% where you can split space and spacebar on one pcb even cheaper

[untold wigeon]

as long as the options are on 1 pcb

[ionic breach]

^

[solar tundra]

but it still L to have 2 PCB and you need to choose it

[little glen]

i think wooting should give regular keyboard modding people some sample switches to test and make sure they are good (i want free switches before everyone else)

[ionic breach]

i think i just got baited too hard by shark

[steel jasper]

Will there be a barebones version of the wooting 60 v2 and how much would it cost ?

[ionic breach]

the possibility is there and its so close

[vivid star]

Has anyone tested IXPE switch foam (0.5mm) under their 80HE switches?
Does it interfere with the magnets?

[bronze grove]

We will be selling a module version without case, switches or keycaps.

[untold wigeon]

when is the 60he v2 being released?

[untold wigeon]

try to use pet

rather than ixpe

[ionic breach]

late this year

[solar tundra]

I would definitely have been much more flashed and it would be much more innovative if it was on 1 PCB

[bronze grove]

If it sits between the switch and plate, expect it to cause some issues.

[steel jasper]

Price if you dont mind me asking?

[bronze grove]

I don't mind you asking, but I also can't answer that yet.

[untold wigeon]

can't be confirmed for now since there are tariffs

so just wait for the reveal

[vivid star]

PET under the switches?

[untold wigeon]

ye pet sheet

0.1mm iirc

[vivid star]

Uh

At such thickness is there any impact on the sound?

[untold wigeon]

for HE it has

[prime orbit]

What is PET anyway?

[untold wigeon]

PET film

[prime orbit]

What does it do tho?

[ionic breach]

just a plastic

which can be used as a foam

[prime orbit]

Ah

[untold wigeon]

but useless imo

[prime orbit]

I would use it even with Friction fit?

[steel jasper]

Will the double strap for the wooting make it fly?

[untold wigeon]

yes

fly like the wind

[prime orbit]

Yes into the wall when I go 0-15

[untold wigeon]

https://tenor.com/view/squeeze-it-woody-jessie-bullseye-gif-21868917

[steel jasper]

Can wooting make EC board ?

[untold wigeon]

skill issue

u're just bad at the game my friend

[prime orbit]

Trust me I know. I remind myself everyday with my pfp

[untold wigeon]

sell your wooting and buy a game course

[prime orbit]

….

I was exaggerating

I’ve never been 0-15

0-12

Yes

[untold wigeon]

i was joking

[untold wigeon]

HAHAHHAHAHAHAH

ngl,
i have a friend who is iron in val

[prime orbit]

Legit went 20-3 the game before. Next game started 0-12 make it make sense

I blame cs2 tick rate

[median fog]

I would also make it a bit more clear on the site(s) to say that both spacebars won't be available for same 1 pcb. currently it's not very clear (at the end of video it was more clear, but still not perfect, and not everyone will watch the video I guess)

[prime orbit]

Same. It’s kinda funny to watch

[untold wigeon]

and he has an expensive setup which i can't imagine the usage for

it's way better to buy a game course and learn from the best

improve then buy peripherals

[calm pulsar]

on checkout it will probably be more clear, can't buy rn anyways

but this sucks either way

[prime orbit]

I mean to be fair

My wooting is like

[calm pulsar]

https://tenor.com/view/jaden-williams-gif-14357453609232628339

[prime orbit]

$400+. I have PMM mousepad and finalmouse ULX

To be Asc

😭

[untold wigeon]

[tropic urchin]

Get GMK caps and you can add even more

[prime orbit]

Although I will say I’m on a 120hz 8 yr old monitor

[prime orbit]

I have Lyla blank keycaps

Love them things

[calm pulsar]

lol 120 aint even bad

[prime orbit]

Idk if they gmk or not

[tropic urchin]

actually yeah upgrade this before GMK

[untold wigeon]

my venom is gonna be around $200ish and i have a viper mini se + saturn pro

[prime orbit]

I’m getting 500hz oled soon

[untold wigeon]

but my iems are quite expensive

[ionic breach]

pbtfans iirc

[tropic urchin]

Oooo shit enjoy brotha 🥹

OLED is goated

[prime orbit]

🤌🤌

I will

I can’t wait to replay EX33 on Oled 😭😭

[tropic urchin]

I have 240 hz atm and shits magical

[calm pulsar]

damn now I cant decide between leggera and og frog mini

[prime orbit]

Ah yes

[untold wigeon]

leggera G

go for leggera G

[median fog]

so there must be 3 keys on that spacebar, you can't have 2, just left as now and full right?

[prime orbit]

I need to upgrade my apple earbuds Ngl. Idk what iems to get tho

[calm pulsar]

no changes possible

unfortunately

[prime orbit]

Saturn pro goat

[untold wigeon]

i have sp004

[prime orbit]

Nah fr 😭 it’s so bad. I swear max contrast and my blacks are still optimum grey

[calm pulsar]

yeah but my silber frog has the nice split in 2 case pieces

damn

[untold wigeon]

but not a huge fan of it

[prime orbit]

Used to have it. But got too scratchy bc of my dogs hair

[untold wigeon]

damn

[untold wigeon]

ngl i want the og frog

but hard to find in black

[median fog]

I mean it's not that bad, you can get used to it, like in dota if you use homerow for left hand, and will get used to clicking the middle button as the new Alt, should work fine. (since Alt is so awkwardly placed, especially using esdf in games)

[prime orbit]

How’s my day looking

[calm pulsar]

Bigsly has it

got from mechmarket

[prime orbit]

Imma follow in his footsteps

[calm pulsar]

I dunno if I replied wrong or you deleted lol @untold wigeon

[untold wigeon]

looking around in asia

[untold wigeon]

i deleted it

HAHAHHA

[calm pulsar]

evasive son of a gun

[tawdry tree]

@glacial wind speak of the devil LMAO

[chilly mural]

ugh... still on my 60hz ips monitor

[prime orbit]

60….

Sadge

[median fog]

yeah it can get annoying to type on it though, because I think more natural to click right between the middle one and the right.

[chilly mural]

high level rhythm game is still playable though

[violet fulcrum]

The layout option wooting shouldve added with the 60v2

[glacial wind]

oh no

[calm pulsar]

you're forbidden from buying rhythm controllers until you get a monitor

[solar tundra]

thats the issue

[calm pulsar]

THATS WHAT IM SAYIN

[chilly mural]

NOOO

[prime orbit]

[ionic breach]

yea im suing shark for emotional heartbreak

[trail bane]

Sounds so familiar 🫩

[sacred elm]

how are you playing rhythm game with 60hz monitor

[chilly mural]

with supreme reaction time

[sacred elm]

doubt about that

[chilly mural]

fak

[calm pulsar]

maybe its less about reaction and more about learning songs

[trail bane]

Fps bypass + cbf and ofc no v-sync

[calm pulsar]

and mechanics

[sacred elm]

nothing can help it

its literally slow motion

ive played osu with 60hz monitor

it sucks

[calm pulsar]

gta6 on ps5 gonna be wild🥀 🥀

[prime orbit]

Wait hold on

Gta5 is the next one no?

[median fog]

wait, not to late to swap the left and right spacebar keys! (and then it all lining up better with G | H homerow.
2.25 on the left and 2.75 on the right

[prime orbit]

Am I tripping

[chilly mural]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dbRAMjsx9X8 1000 fps limit, no vsync, lit set the monitor to overdrive.

[calm pulsar]

gta 5 came out in 2013

[prime orbit]

Ur lying

[tropic urchin]

LMAOO

[tawdry tree]

YOU GET IT MANA

[calm pulsar]

[prime orbit]

Bro am I under a rock

[tropic urchin]

NO YOU DIDNT

[tawdry tree]

holy

[median fog]

has this been suggested yet, and known about etc

[tawdry tree]

simon knows

[prime orbit]

Wow. erm

I missed this

Completely

[stray tiger]

I think I forgot to tell you I've got a silver og frog coming tomorrow or Mon

[median fog]

so any chance this will actually be changed?

[calm pulsar]

is it the one like i have? I think there are even earlier colorways where its more shiny

or maybe it was some kind of gray option

[tawdry tree]

it’s unarguably not the way to do it but if it’ll be change idk.

atp I have no faith in the entire split space sku tbh

not being optional

[tawdry tree]

to do reasonable well.

[calm pulsar]

ngl in 2k with the global ray tracing illumination that recently came out on PC, it looks great to this day

[tropic urchin]

It’s 2025 tak, it’s time to live like it

No controllers

Upgrade

[prime orbit]

I bet I just watched the 6 trailer. Looks insane

[chilly mural]

Okay... it's actually the last thing I need to upgrade.

[sacred elm]

WHAT

[tropic urchin]

Maybe middle if your pc needs a retrofitting

But last is wild

[chilly mural]

I upgraded my controller, I have a good rhythm game keyboard, and I have good earphone

Im lit running 5700x3d + 4070tiS

[calm pulsar]

not for me tho

[calm pulsar]

on 60 hz

bruuuv

[untold wigeon]

case?

[calm pulsar]

luminkey lx60

[untold wigeon]

lovely build

ngl

[median fog]

this is basically catering more to normies right (and looking better I guess) - align it better with center of kb instead of actually real alignment that is G | H.
but split spacebar shouldn't be for normies or really for appearance as much as functionality.

[untold wigeon]

i might do a full black build with pbtfans lyla

[calm pulsar]

[untold wigeon]

idk if the color will match the leggera black

[calm pulsar]

maybe if they use the same black color code as gmk

[untold wigeon]

but fck it, i will still use it

or i might use my old keycaps

[calm pulsar]

if it doesnt match exactly can potentially be a vibe too

[calm pulsar]

nah this was a super nice build

and you sold it gg

[untold wigeon]

it will be back

don't worry

the diff is using 7u

and rawhuks

[calm pulsar]

[tropic urchin]

Disgusting

[untold wigeon]

the main problem with this keycaps set, there is no small backspace

[calm pulsar]

this was never used to play fps games😭

[untold wigeon]

so i might think twice about using split backspace

[stray tiger]

Let me find the pic

[calm pulsar]

ohh rip

[stray tiger]

@calm pulsar these are the photos the seller sent me

[calm pulsar]

nice, so the color is the same as on mine, but my weight is silver and this is brass, which is cooler

[crimson sky]

looks like a 🐸

[solar tundra]

The difference between 60HE+ Module compared to 60HE V2 Module is only 8K Polling Rate right?

If you have a full Modded Wooting (Case, Switches, Keycaps) i feel like that buying the V2 isnt worth at all. Could just get a Benom60 and its even cheaper no?

The Split Spacebar seems the only thing my Eyes caught but dont have the Option to switch between Spacebar and Split Spacebar..Wooting imo is in the position to drop something like that

[little glen]

goddamn og frog

[tropic urchin]

Crocs 🥶

[crimson sky]

tho he has painted the outer weight to make the logo silver

[little glen]

kinda want one of those tbh

[steady pilot]

[crimson sky]

technically the og frog is the TKL

[calm pulsar]

oh right

[little glen]

og frog mini

there you go

[stray tiger]

Yeah I think this will be my 3rd og frog mini. I've already got green and purple

[little glen]

god damn

[crimson sky]

bruh

[little glen]

bro hoarding like a dragon

[crimson sky]

to be fair the green and purple are nice

[mild lotus]

👀

[untold wigeon]

imo ye

[little glen]

do you have a pic of the purple?

[calm pulsar]

https://youtu.be/XoD4e7PmzfY

look at this beauty

[tawdry tree]

normies probably would be too afraid to try it either way (being not optional). I don’t believe a single split space user would suggest this split so guess that explains it. Going for aesthetics over functionality is beyond stupid which is why I don’t think that’s what they did. Most likely no split space user and lack of research.

[solar tundra]

Unfortunate Wooting L today man

[sacred elm]

Lovely. How much was it?

[stray tiger]

Going for aesthetics over functionality defines 90% of the choices people make. Shoes, clothes, furniture, and yeah even keyboards

[stray tiger]

We traded actually. Sent him/her a Midway60. So roughly a $200 trade

[tawdry tree]

It’s a bit nonsensical for keyboard layouts though. Something people actually have to use.

[solar tundra]

I think for the Split Spacebar it will be more Refunds than actual Sales cause People rather have a normal Spacebar i think

[tawdry tree]

I’m sure they didn’t go with this split for aesthetics.

[cyan lark]

What part of the split do you think is for aesthetics? The button in the center?

[stray tiger]

I'm just saying people buy stuff they think looks good all the time, even if there are more utilitarian choices

[calm pulsar]

it is not in the center

[cyan lark]

The button in the not-center?

[tawdry tree]

2.75 - 1.25 - 2.25 doesn’t align with the center, 2.25 - 1.25 - 2.75 does.

[median fog]

2.50 - 1.25 - 2.50 is also making both halves the same click sound/feel and also a compromise for this.

[tawdry tree]

the usual split is the opposite of this.

that’s why I called it reversed split lol

[cyan lark]

I dunno, maybe since left space is used more for typing they thought making that one bigger was better for the typing experience?

I'll be honest nothing about the split is aesthetic to me, it seems purely functional, but that's preference 🙂

[tawdry tree]

I don’t think it was researched/thought through properly. a split like this makes it more difficult to get used to.

[calm pulsar]

as an aesthetics andy, im am staying opposite of this keyboard

[tidal frigate]

@tawdry tree ngl propably we can put spacebar on two smaller stabs but big wooting dosent want us to know it

[tawdry tree]

and is slightly uncomfortable as well, how you’d have to press the right spacebar with your right thumb (speaking from experience).

[tawdry tree]

LOL, fair

[calm pulsar]

nah but actually not even because it is split

[cyan lark]

As a Functionality Frank I might be down, but I don't love the inablity to switch to 6.25/7u if I don't love it, and it's the only change from the 60HE+ that matters to me.

[calm pulsar]

but cause no 7u

[tawdry tree]

custom plates 🔥🔥

[tawdry tree]

I have no words (I have a lot) for it not being optional.

[cyan lark]

You have a lot and have shared them 😆

[tawdry tree]

That’s so far beyond the split itself.

[chilly mural]

Placing my index on J and laying my thumb naturally on the spacebar, it would seems like I will hit the middle key than the right spacebar.

[sacred elm]

Yeah surely they released a product without a research

[tawdry tree]

yeah, for right thumb space pressers it’ll be a pain to get used to.

[tidal frigate]

Well they want more money from us because of their weird plate without hole in spacebar

[tawdry tree]

the only other way to explain is that they went for aesthetics over functionality. which is not possible because they are not dented.

[sacred elm]

Most people use left side of the spacebar more and they decided to make that part bigger, even if its inverted split spacebar, its not that deep man

[chilly mural]

If i curl my thumb or rest it as if I'm playing rhythm game, it's not a problem though. So I think it's still kinda depends on the person.

[sacred elm]

get over it

who wants, will buy it

[cyan lark]

I can't take a picture of my hands resting on the KB without a 3rd arm, but I actually think with the longer on left split works perfectly for how my hands rest

I do have a bit of concern over whether I'd accidentally end up hitting the center button sometimes tho

[tawdry tree]

anyone who presses space with their left thumb will be fine with way it

[chilly mural]

and putting it on a naturally position when playing rhythm game with my index on K, it's actually going to perfectly lay on the middle.

[cyan lark]

I use both though

I'm sure many do

[tawdry tree]

yeah, that’s the problem.

[solar tundra]

It wouldve def been way more innovating having a pcb where you can switch spacebar and split spacebar. the v2 only makes sense if you dont know anything about modding ur keyboard having a stock v1 or no wooting

[cyan lark]

Just like I use both shifts, as many should

[chilly mural]

shift key is nice, for rhythm game

[solar tundra]

i dont see the point spending money for 8k or just to try split spacebar tho

[chilly mural]

big, easy to press, and sounds nice

[calm pulsar]

@tawdry tree what are your thoughts on friction mount

[cyan lark]

Yeah if I could switch this would probably be a done deal for me. As it is, I'm not so sure I'm willing.

[sacred elm]

Yeah people expected more, but werent there people who was shitting wooting for very bad stock experience? They improved that by a lot. It might actually be the best stock keyboard on the market

[solar tundra]

yeah thats what im saying its for me with a full modded wooting an L

[tawdry tree]

fine. I didn’t expect anything else tbh.

[solar tundra]

Yeah but its def a W for People dont have a Wooting or Stock Wooting. But for someone wo alr has a full Modded Wooting its a L

[tawdry tree]

I have no issue with the 60HE V2, just the split option. :)

[ionic breach]

its a great product forsure, we just got baited so hard by sharkasour

[chilly mural]

You can put the strap on both side!!! I really love that improvement.

[tawdry tree]

numerous improvements were made with it

[chilly mural]

For somebody that uses left hand for mouse but want strap without interference

[tawdry tree]

and by woot too

[tropic urchin]

Yeah stock looks a lot better atleast have better than jade pro stock now

[cyan lark]

Yeah I have my 60 in a case I like w/ a mounting style I enjoy (salv + wackadoo leaf), so the friction mount + new case doesn't do anything for me. 8k is placebo. Sound dampening is... 🤷

[sacred elm]

Im not talking only about switches

Overall.

[calm pulsar]

by teasing split spacebar I thought there would be layout Options

[sacred elm]

The keyboard is a lot better than stock 60he and 80he

[stray tiger]

For the Tikken, the website shows a start force of 40cN and end force of 60cN but it's much closer to 42-55 according to the internal testing.

[cyan lark]

Tikken is the one thing I'm on lock for

[sacred elm]

At least it seems like that

[tropic urchin]

I was too, for plate + switches were a pretty big sticking point

[solar tundra]

Yeah thats what im saying the whole time. Only the Tikken im looking for

[ionic breach]

nah the knob is it for me by far

[tawdry tree]

🥲

[sacred elm]

Long spring or normal 15mm spring?

[ionic breach]

that shit is what makes he so special

[chilly mural]

What wooting lack on keyboard, they make up for it with Knob and Tikken

Tnokben

[tawdry tree]

the knob is the most impressive by far if it’s real

[calm pulsar]

the troll was actually quite good now that it's passed 😭

[ionic breach]

a hotswappable knob

[chilly mural]

prank gone too far ngl

[tawdry tree]

if only it wasn’t a troll 💔

[cyan lark]

I'd be down for a knob. Don't really need it, but I also don't really need all the parts of my nav cluster in the 80HE, so I can find some use for it. At least for my work machine.

[ionic breach]

if its a troll, ill just die

[solar tundra]

And also to say, imo Wooting stay for Innovation and that V2 beeing almost „useless“ or not „interesting“ for alr existing Wooting Enjoyers is not what Wooting should stand for imo only 8k doesnt do it for me

[ionic breach]

im fine with 8k, its great so u can have rgb and 1k

[solar tundra]

They could absolutely killing it with 1 PCB Switchable Spacebar Split Spacebar and 8k would be Cherry on Top tho

[ionic breach]

i just dk how well split spacebar will sell

[cyan lark]

Eh, I guess I just see it as a v2 - an improved version of the v1, which it is 🤷

Gotta wait for 64HE for the true innovation 😁

[chilly mural]

Waiting for numpad HE

[solar tundra]

Yeah but spending 155€+ for 7k extra Polling Rate? You can get 8k for like 70-90€

[calm pulsar]

I want it to happen now

[sacred elm]

What?

[chilly mural]

With the knob coming, they can split off the numpad side of 2he, give it 8khz, and the top 4 keys you can put 4 knob

[solar tundra]

Benom60? 8k Polling Rate?

[sacred elm]

Yea venom doesnt cost 90$ my guy

[ionic breach]

the price difference in chips isnt the reason why it cost so different

[untold wigeon]

but there is a lot of downsides

[solar tundra]

I can buy for 80€ wdym

[sacred elm]

only PCB

[chilly mural]

You know that's just the pcb. Need Stab + Switches + Case + Keycaps... Also DIY and no Warranty.

[sacred elm]

add other parts

[solar tundra]

Yeah

Im talking about Upgrading from my Module

[untold wigeon]

plate $20

[sacred elm]

you cant

[calm pulsar]

will need a plate as well

[sacred elm]

you need different plate

[solar tundra]

Still cheaper than v2

[untold wigeon]

bro,
Wooting & Venom is 2 different keyboard and u can't compare like that

it's not about the price

[ionic breach]

not because of the chips that makes it 8k

[sacred elm]

and again, you are getting worse software/warranty

[cyan lark]

Sure but it's not a fair comparison for someone cannibalizing parts from another board and pricing it out as if you aren't

[untold wigeon]

Venom main focus is custom community

[chilly mural]

140 at least with shipping if I'm getting a new stab for that 7u.

[untold wigeon]

while wooting is focusing on gamers

[stray tiger]

That's the part I was the most excited about. It's very real.

[cyan lark]

It's extremely cool, I just have so many knobs already 😆

[ionic breach]

u got any protos to tryout yet?

[stray tiger]

That's the one thing I haven't tried yet unfortunately

[ionic breach]

[tropic urchin]

It’s not a very friendly first board experience, but it’s a nice secondary board option if you get into the modding spirit and have a nice Wooting as a backup if your shit for w/e reason has issues

[ionic breach]

they better sell the knobs in 90 packs

[tawdry tree]

It’ll be very interesting to see how they achieved continuous rotation with the constraint of being in a switch position and only having the magnet to transfer the information to the board.

[ionic breach]

for my 80he

[chilly mural]

heck, even tiger lite which has almost everything is like ~$130 because shipping, Tee hee, and keycaps. Might be $100 cheaper, but I still love my 80he for the feel.

[chilly mural]

$5 per knob lmao, gonna be bankrupt

[calm pulsar]

yeah after having 2 60hes im enjoying venom for the 7u layout and db
the software I always set up like I want on any board and never go there again

[chilly mural]

assuming it's $5 and not cheaper or more expensive.

[tropic urchin]

For a one time Andy I’d probably shit myself assembling it lol

[cyan lark]

I do hope someone does the all-knob board

It has to be done

[calm pulsar]

with your strength make sure not to snap the pcb in half

[solar tundra]

For what can you use the Knob?

To turn Volume up&down?

[cyan lark]

Presumably any 3 actions

That's how it works on the other configurable knobs I've used

[chilly mural]

Volume, art/editing software, scroll wheel, rhythm game... uhh, not sure what's next

[solar tundra]

Where should you place a Knob in 60he

the big one def not work

[chilly mural]

gonna try the rhythm game part, if they can do 360 rotation and can work like a mouse.

[solar tundra]

and the small one where

[tropic urchin]

I don’t wanna cut myself like joshibasan

[cyan lark]

It would almost certainly rotate indefinitely

[stray tiger]

The best part about that is you're right. Also the best part about that is when people say "Oh Wooting only has better software, support and warranty", this is exactly what better software gets you. Can someone copy it and make a hotswappable knob in the future, sure. Will they be years behind in making it work well, yes.

[ionic breach]

oh yea that is what calder meant

the big one is for the 80he

[cyan lark]

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rotary_encoder

[chilly mural]

I trust Wooting to be able contuniously work with it until it works with all matter of software.

[cyan lark]

Not the human spirit

Just like the last time my Dad picked me up

[tropic urchin]

If souls are real no, but you can ahem extinguish them 🥀

[tawdry tree]

I presumed so as it shows it’ll be able to be used for volume up and down. Something you can only achieve with continuous rotation. Can’t wait to see how they achieved it.

Seems like a massive challenge.

[tropic urchin]

Why you gotta say this shit on a Friday

[stray tiger]

I cant say much but have you thought about how the big knob works?

[cyan lark]

Yes

[calm pulsar]

okay deleted

[cyan lark]

Magnet over multiple sensors

[calm pulsar]

too dark

[tropic urchin]

Can’t be Monday posting on a Friday hehe

[cyan lark]

I thought it was fine, but definitely sobering on a Fday

[chilly mural]

Some rhythm game controller uses like light sensor and a circular plastic with cutout to work as something that can spin while being very durable. Though need to be big and obv doesn't work with HE.

[cyan lark]

Hm, although...

OK, so it occupies 4 switch sockets. As you rotate it mechanically translates the motion into pressing/depressing a magnet into the 4 switch sockets in a rotation

[cyan lark]

@stray tiger Blink twice if I'm close, or blink once two times in succession if I'm way off base.

[tropic urchin]

Oh no

[stray tiger]

lol, no blinking required, just saying to think about how accurate a knob is with 4 points of reference

[wispy zodiac]

the ow60 being 600$ for me is criminal

[languid kestrel]

steal it, and become the criminal

[tawdry tree]

The single one is where the real magic happens surely.

[ionic breach]

yea cos how would you know which way its turning

[cyan lark]

Big knob would be incredible if it had a dynamic clutch which I think is totally out of the question

[ionic breach]

unless its not forever

[languid kestrel]

easily

[tawdry tree]

magic.

[tawdry tree]

it is.

[ionic breach]

yea, thats why its so cool

[tawdry tree]

very

[tulip rapids]

is the wooting knob can be inserted into a wooting keyboard or its just a stand alone part that goes on your desk?

[ionic breach]

imagine it like a switch

[sacred elm]

in the keyboard

[solar tundra]

Goku will goon on Knobs instead of Nipples when its gonna release…

[chilly mural]

I think you can make it stand alone if you have UWU i guess

[sacred elm]

Are you going for silver?

I am 🌹

[tulip rapids]

yeah

i was wondering what white looks like

but i have tofu acrylic case with white keycaps (will be getting xray keycaps soon) so i want to try out silver

[solar tundra]

They didnt wanted to talk about white yet

[calm pulsar]

I wonder if they are gonna sell a black fr4 plate

[sage jewel]

I just got a wooting 80he, and if you are spending around 300 USD for one I suggest that you get the 80 instead of the 60, the raw zinc case looks great

[tulip rapids]

what colour was the plate on the stream? white?

[calm pulsar]

yes

[sacred elm]

I already have 80he

[sage jewel]

mb, replied to the wong message ;P

[sacred elm]

iirc they said that white color wont be available at first, instead they are making bright silver case, that is white ish almost

[tulip rapids]

theyre scared because of that one brain rot youtuber

[calm pulsar]

silver is always great

[sacred elm]

Silver

will look nice with my silver beastx

[tulip rapids]

how you feeling about the tikken switches?

they sound pretty nice but im a pleb so what do i know

[tropic urchin]

They’re releasing 60HE v2 with same perks as 80HE with better stock options currently for prebuilts

[sacred elm]

They are promising, if they are as tight as owlab ti's for example, I will main them for sure

[calm pulsar]

ngl would be nice if it was smth else than friction pad

[tulip rapids]

you no like?

what idea do you have in mind?

[stray tiger]

It's actually really nice

[calm pulsar]

just liked having the option of no foam/silicone on og 60he and venom, and didnt prefer the sound of silicon insert when I tried it

[tulip rapids]

i see i see

[tropic urchin]

Boam clears

[calm pulsar]

its nice that its a way to mount it softer, but I also didnt like the way switch sound interacts when there is a silicon insert

personal ofc

[tidal frigate]

Whats important

[stray tiger]

Sure. You can always do o-ring in that case. Same concept

[untold wigeon]

what's important that i bought benom only for oring mount

[stray tiger]

You're not forced to use the gasket mount

[tidal frigate]

Lekker tikken are first 4mm closed bottom switches on market

[tidal frigate]

You can use wooting in oring mount

[sacred elm]

Bakka

If you order Rakka varedis, just know this

[stray tiger]

And in my opinion, better sounding and feeling than the TI's, although that's personal

[untold wigeon]

nope

[sacred elm]

Bakka.

[tropic urchin]

Sussy bakka

[tidal frigate]

Yes you can

[untold wigeon]

how

[tropic urchin]

We will see what the rakka takka chicken tikka masala PCB will offer

[tidal frigate]

Place oring between pcba and plate.

[tulip rapids]

eren yaeger

[untold wigeon]

which oring?

[calm pulsar]

I guess the diy friction mount still exists yeah
still remember trying to force my pcb into the case with a dense aliexpress oring

[untold wigeon]

rubber oring / burger oring?

[tidal frigate]

Gummy oring

This one thats streches

[untold wigeon]

nah, even the port isn't possible on leggera

[calm pulsar]

it also applies when you dont get the silver gt80

[silver nest]

split spacebar or regular??

[tidal frigate]

Depends on u

[sacred elm]

Silver 60he v2 case 🫦

[sacred elm]

There are two pcb options, with split spacebar and regular 6.25u

[silver nest]

keycap compatibility is gonna be annoying tho
you’ll need to get a space bar set 🥀

[high nymph]

you managed not to spoil, but now we know! Can't wait for them to be out there

[calm pulsar]

with cherry caps, no strap, black plate gonna be fire

[high nymph]

I see so many possibilities with double layer, err.. I mean space bars ....

[sacred elm]

👀

[calm pulsar]

well plate can remain, but personally I hate to see the white between the keys

[sacred elm]

I have to get nice keycaps before it arrives

[tropic urchin]

Ah I see why you like black plates now

[sacred elm]

white plate will look fine with silver case no? unless you use black keycaps

[calm pulsar]

been at that since day 1

[silver nest]

ngl if i get split spacebar i’ll probably get excited about it for a week and then i’ll regret not getting the regular 6.25u

[sacred elm]

definitely getting normal spacebar

[calm pulsar]

I usually prefer caps where the alphas are lighter than main color, so I'd just get a black plate any time I can

[tropic urchin]

Nightmare fuel scenario

[silver nest]

is the new tikken switch longer than a normal closed/semi-closed bottom switch?

[sacred elm]

Yes, 4mm

[silver nest]

because it a full 4mm travel

[calm pulsar]

it is not longer in outer dimensions

[chilly mural]

this is the moment where you whip out your second Wooting board

[calm pulsar]

just shorter stem probably

to allow for full travel

[sacred elm]

Yeah

[silver nest]

fr

i wonder if the v2 will be available module only
probably will

[chilly mural]

it will, sounds dumb not having one

[sacred elm]

Prebuilt and module

Prebuild is only black, not silver or other colors afaik

[chilly mural]

actually, imagine somebody owning both split and regular spacebar config and just use the friction fit to hotswap between the 2

[calm pulsar]

or use 8 60hes to get that 8k polling rate

[chilly mural]

If you're an octopus I guess

[silver nest]

the case seems like an updated alumaze?

[calm pulsar]

no its original plastic case but metal

[obtuse musk]

How does the ttc kom pom differ from ttc magneto switches?
Do they also have longer springs?

[dark narwhal]

Can you use screw in stabs on the 60he+? Mine came with snap in once, but i saw on their website that 60he+ supports it so I’m wondering if thats a feature with more recent 60he+ once or if it just didnt come with screw ins by default

[stray tiger]

Yes you can

[sacred elm]

which magnetos?

[dark narwhal]

Oh i see thank you, is it just pcb mount stabilizer or plate mount aswell? Do i need a different plate or something to swap it?

[bronze grove]

60HE+ uses the same PCB as the 60HE Module.
This means that you CAN install screw-in stabs - but it doesn't come with them installed.

[obtuse musk]

The pom ones I suppose

[sacred elm]

Are you comparing wooting ttc poms and regular magneto poms? the only difference is spring weight

wooting poms are 40/55g

magnetos are 35/45g

[obtuse musk]

Ahh, ic. Yeah I’m not that knowledgeable of the different types of switches.

Been thinking of upgrading and these seem like good option for me. Most of all I want stability and smoothness

[sacred elm]

They need to be hand lubed for better sound/feel

Factory lube is atrocious

[lyric nimbus]

yall would this fit my wooting two

[trail bane]

Obviously Materials, different springs color and their actuation weight. All switches in the KOM line have a travel distance of 3.5mm and a closed bottom (though you can increase it by removing the bottom, logically). The KOM switches in the SNK line have slightly different top and bottom housing structures, and their spring is longer than usual, accordingly, the actuation weight is also different

[sacred elm]

no hand lube = skip

get owlab ti's instead

[obtuse musk]

Yeah I read that being the case. Which I’m not opposed to if it’s really worth doing.

[sacred elm]

Its worth, yeah

[trail bane]

Boring = skip
Get fluxies

[obtuse musk]

Ok but will hand lubed kom poms beat owlab tis?

[sacred elm]

Sound/feel? probably no, but they are more stable. Owlabs are allrounder and safer recommendation right now.

[trail bane]

Budget and sound difference

Even every POM "recolour" have a unique sound

Og POMs have more deep sound
Snk POMs are more clacker

[obtuse musk]

The sound isn’t a big factor for me. If I got to choose I’d want as quiet as possible but without compromising feel or stability, but either way doesn’t matter much.

[trail bane]

Woot idk🥀

[sacred elm]

POMs are loud switches but if you remove the PET sticker from the 80HE pcb, they sound noticeably quieter

[trail bane]

Ig og poms is bit quieter than others(ti/poms recolours)

[trail bane]

Oh, nevermind

[trail bane]

That’s because I’m currently use fr4 plate

[obtuse musk]

But I’d still take loud but better feeling switches over quiet but worse feeling ones.

[trail bane]

Mm no?

[sacred elm]

that keyboard sounds atrocious

[obtuse musk]

I’ve also never lubed switches before but I’m not against trying it out

[agile grove]

but screen 🥺

[sacred elm]

youll get sick of it in like a week

[agile grove]

nah bro twust rgb makes you better

and a screen is just a lot of rgb

https://tenor.com/view/big-brain-gif-27108854

[sacred elm]

[obtuse musk]

As someone who usually turns off rgb on everything, this is my worst enemy

Anyway, maybe I’ll just get the owlab ti switches since it’ll save me both time and money over kom poms

As long as they’re a noticeable improvement from lekker v2 I’m happy

[cyan lark]

They’re quite nice and are a fair price

[sacred elm]

Yeah, get them

[tropic urchin]

First ever thocky keyboard 😳

@solar tundra buy this shit bro

Trust

[cyan lark]

Really feeding that demon on your shoulder brother

[tropic urchin]

Bro wants thock

This is his only shot lmao

[cyan lark]

🔫
The only thock shot that kb has

We’re almost so back

And I dried out my basement after all that damned rain. Life going 📈 other than not getting 64HE

[dark narwhal]

Do you have to take into consideration the type of stabs when you switch to gateron jades? Since the travel distance is shorter there

[tropic urchin]

If you don’t want to change stabs geon stem spacers accomplish same thing

[dark narwhal]

Id like to change to some screw in stabs, but where do i find compatability info about them? Like i might just be braindamaged but i dont find info if i.e the Durock Stabilizers V3 Screw Ins are compatable or not

[stray tiger]

I'm so fricken ready to swap to tikken on almost all of my boards.

[stray tiger]

Which board do you have now?

[dark narwhal]

60he+

[sacred elm]

[cyan lark]

Got me kinda hyped. Do we know if they’re waiting to release them until 60v2?

[sacred elm]

They said that they plan to release both of them at the same time

[stray tiger]

Do I know specifically? No I dont, but it was mentioned at some point that they might release earlier than the board. That was months ago, so don't quote me on it.

I'll see if I can get some clarification but with Computex starting in a few days it might be tough getting a lot of info for the next 2 weeks

Here was the exact quote. Again this was months ago.

Doesnt mean they will, just that they wanted to back then.

[cyan lark]

Sure, fingers crossed then.

[lyric nimbus]

i want a nice, simple elegant case

[fluid ravine]

LET'S GOOOOO

W WOOTING

Made a good choice on that pad config

[old swallow]

idk if it was mentioned, since i wasnt able to tune into the stream, but will the 60HEv2 be available as a full case only, or also as a module?

[glacial wind]

both options, check pins for faq

[old swallow]

oh yea, im kinda dumb for not doing that. but ty regardless

[harsh dove]

How are we gonna get Tikkens living in the US

[sour blade]

WOOTING 60 PRO buying room.

[cyan lark]

I'm going to start by selling plasma on a regular basis

[harsh dove]

Tikkens gonna cost more than WS Fluxes for us

[cyan lark]

Too real 😢

[harsh dove]

$5 per switch, thanks Orange Man

[light agate]

thinking about if i should move my 60he to this case

https://kbdcraft.store/products/case-adam?sku=18066908367771192549901690

[bronze grove]

I don't see how you would do this, unless you want to fabricate your own switch plate.

[light agate]

because it's buildable, probably modify it so i can use those giant gummy rings to friction fit it

[bronze grove]

You need to ground it as well.

[agile grove]

is that a lego case?

[light agate]

yeah

[tidal frigate]

It is lego

[bronze grove]

You don't say.

[cyan lark]

What's to ground? It's plastic

[bronze grove]

The PCB.

[cyan lark]

The PCB gets its ground pin from USB?

[languid kestrel]

that's grounded with the usb fren

[bronze grove]

Remember what happens when the 2HE daughterboard isn't grounded?

[languid kestrel]

i'm not sure what you're trying to say, the 60HE comes in a plastic case

why is another plastic case not gonna work

[bronze grove]

And is grounded to the case via the case screws.

[tawdry tree]

😭😭

[languid kestrel]

huh

[cyan lark]

[languid kestrel]

how is the plastic conducting electricity

[agile grove]

grounded to… plastic?

[languid kestrel]

mansen you have to go to sleep, I will do the same

[cyan lark]

That case is cute though

[calm pulsar]

plastic magnets... smh

[light agate]

im getting more and more confused 😭😭

[agile grove]

wooting invented an electrically conductive plastic just for their keyboard

[languid kestrel]

[tawdry tree]

Possible but the force the O-Ring puts on the bricks might be too much.

[bronze grove]

Get zapped I guess 😄

[tawdry tree]

Disregard that.

[light agate]

hmmm

[languid kestrel]

that's just not a thing, you're misunderstanding how things work or we are talking about different things

like mostly there's even no point or difference in grounding or not grounding a metal case, much less something that doesn't even conduct electricity

[agile grove]

should be fine

[tawdry tree]

because it’s not orig lego, idk

those cheap bricks don’t grip each other much

afaik

[agile grove]

could always glue it together to be safe, but that kinda ruins the whole point

[glacial wind]

Updated 60HE V2 Modding FAQ:

[light agate]

hmm, tbh i just am looking for an interesting case

[tawdry tree]

A GLUER!

[agile grove]

depends on how well they’re made

[light agate]

https://cannonkeys.com/products/pbs-blanks?variant=42507096981615

this could look good with that case but for rn, if anyone knows any gimmicky or cool looking cases that can work with the 60he, pls let me know

[agile grove]

this might ruin lego for you but…. most master model builders use the kragle

[cyan lark]

[high lion]

anyone got experience with some mchose keebs

HE ones

[silver rover]

I bought the cerakey keycaps ages ago, defo gonna upgrade to the 60HEV2, was wondering if anyone knows the sizes for split spacebar keys, just kinda curious if I'd have to email cerakeys to get specific ones or something

[high lion]

saw a review testing and it had similiar latency to 60 he

[tawdry tree]

2.75U - 1.25U - 2.25U

A spacebar is convex normally but I’m not sure if Cerakeys offers any convex keycaps in those sizes.

[sacred elm]

@tawdry tree where are gateron switches smh my head

[tawdry tree]

after knob

or we get scammed

well not

[sacred elm]

They should announce it today no?

[tawdry tree]

surely

[sacred elm]

sno's ugly blue switch without lube wins🔥

[glacial wind]

install that on split spacebar 60he v2 and take photo to really tilt shafie
