Is the owlab case compatible with the 60he+ plate? I want to have some more bounce when i use it i think

tawdry tree
#

Probably a bit tight or loose.

Haven’t been here in a bit

#

What do ppl think of the new wooting stuff

tropic urchin
#

stock FR4 plate so no PC plates is big W

#

when will wooting sell their own plates tho 😭

alu case would mean you can get the v2 case anodized cheaply too depending on where you are

sacred elm
#

its nice refresh, but some people expected tsangan layout,db support,oring compatibility

Even with that dream shattered, there's still the dream of wooting numpad.

sacred elm
#

im getting it. whos not, its their problem you got it? @tropic urchin

glacial wind
#

at least in korea it's only like $50 or so to get a case anodized, can make the case any non light color you want for that

sacred elm
#

when is your monitor arriving

#

we can celebrate together, you wont have 60hz anymore

chilly mural
#

also like, my current monitor is very nostalgic to me, it has been with me until close to the very top.

#

TBH, The only time I prop experienced 120hz is on my quest 3, but minecraft is very hard to run so at best I got 80fps.

sweet oak
#

We aura farming chat?

glacial wind
#

i actually prefer it slightly further down the way it is now because it gives more room to press normal spacebar with thumb on left side

tawdry tree
glacial wind
ionic breach
#

SwitchyPog Wait shot is getting above 60hz monitor?

tawdry tree
glacial wind
#

i think whether you prefer the 2.75u on the right or left side will heavily depend on how much you favor using left hand thumb to press space

#

like for what i'm saying is i prefer 2.75u - 1.25 - 2.25 vs. your suggestion because i use more of that left side to press normal space and don't want to press the middle split space when aiming for normal space

#

this is very personal based on my typing style of course, but that's what i mean where i don't think it's just 'everyone prefers 2.75u more on right/left'

tawdry tree
glacial wind
#

and have tried split

tawdry tree
#

that’s not something I’ve ever seen before

glacial wind
#

basically the tl;dr is i've found i use more of the left side than right side of my space bar when hitting space

tawdry tree
#

afaik, it doesn’t exist and there’s a reason for that.

glacial wind
#

and what i'm explaining is the 2.75u on the left cators more to not accidentally pressing the wrong split side

#

at least for my own typing

agile grove
#

if i’m gaming im going to be pressing the left side of space with my left thumb

#

I’d rather there be more space there

glacial wind
#

it's why i don't think it's going to just be 'oh everyone would prefer it on the right' or 'everyone would prefer it on the left' - a lot of gamers favor left side i think due to bad typing habits like takigi said

#

myself included, i have some habits with typing just due to favoring that left side from playing games

paper bloom
#

Depends on the placement really

glacial wind
#

yeah exactly

paper bloom
#

If your thumbs always at the mid of ur spacebar then yeah

tawdry tree
paper bloom
#

Major left then go for split if ur comfortable

paper bloom
#

no ones gonna stop me

glacial wind
paper bloom
#

if not just run a keycap swap and use it as a stand alone e z

glacial wind
#

so it kind of works but doesn't work depending on the person, i think you'd be surprised how many people don't have ideal typing postures

tawdry tree
glacial wind
#

yeah which i'm explaining that a lot of people don't do it that way

tawdry tree
#

where does a lot come from?

glacial wind
#

it's gaming typing habits from people who grew up playing cs etc

#

i type fast but not correctly just due to being so used to wasd positioning

tawdry tree
#

I might be mistaken but I personally haven’t seen this split anywhere, on any board. who exactly is using it?

glacial wind
#

i'm saying people who favor left side tend to prefer more 'normal' space like the way wooting has it setup now

#

which is what i've found when using other split formats

tawdry tree
#

it doesn’t really work to apply where your thumb is on a big spacebar and compare it to the split. that differs for everyone and it’ll take time to adjust, that’s normal. people that press space near the center will have to adjust more.

#

that’s if it’s with their right thumb.

glacial wind
#

okay well i tried to explain it's fine, you do your thing

tawdry tree
agile grove
#

your entire argument is based on user preference, our entire argument is based on user preference

#

there’s no winning here

glacial wind
#

yep exactly ^

paper bloom
#

Honestly it depends on typing and playstyle

glacial wind
#

i'm trying to explain the differences in user preferences and that analysing based just on one specific preference just doesn't work

paper bloom
#

I see ur point there

tawdry tree
#

nobody here has used 2.75 split.

paper bloom
#

but ig different users

glacial wind
#

there's going to be some folks that prefer big 2.75u on left, some on right and it'll vary more based on their natural typing positions

tawdry tree
#

2.75 offers no space at all for the right thumb (something a significant amount of people use) whereas 2.25 does for both.

#

Maybe this will make more sense, if I have my hand on WASD this is where I rest my thumb. If you make that shorter I'm between two keys now

glacial wind
#

yeah hopper gets it

tawdry tree

agile grove
tawdry tree
#

that’ll explain it.

glacial wind
#

when wasding with one hand on the mouse i'm heavily leaning towards wanting bigger space like hoppers image

agile grove
#

in an ideal world, wooting would make both pcbs available

#

but that comes at a cost

tawdry tree
glass comet
#

with the release of the 60he v2 will wooting release a separate fr4 plate just like how they have separate pc plates rn?

agile grove
#

no matter what they do, a certain amount of users will be left out

polar girder
#

aligner always picking these useless,fruitless fights lol

#

So layout dogmatic

glacial wind
tawdry tree
polar girder
#

lol ok

agile grove
sacred elm
tawdry tree
#

common even.

#

(coming from someone who has used split space for over a year)

glacial wind
#

literally everything you just said for all 3 categories is going to be a preference

#

and i know you're trying to imply the specific preference that's more widely used is correct, but that's just not how preference works

agile grove
tawdry tree
austere creek
#

all im hearing is it feels like a mistake to have done split spacebar lol

glacial wind
#

i basically don't use right side that much when gaming

agile grove

#

With how the spacebar is currently setup, I'll perfect align with my rhythm gamer finger on keyboard.

fringe quarry
#

can we do no spacebar

ionic breach
#

but we will see how the sales gets split

agile grove
austere creek
#

long spacebar good, long spacebar can double as a nutella knife

tawdry tree
ionic breach
#

if it was smt they could get one board and tinker if they would like, i believe that would be the ideal

glacial wind
sweet oak
ionic breach
#

but rn they have to choose afaik

glacial wind
#

people will use split spacebar how they want to use it, and it's not going to be based on whether aligner approves of the way they use it

austere creek
sweet oak
#

Why would you lick butter off

austere creek
#

good point. i lick the nutella off before putting it back on. maybe i should just leave it on the spacebar

tawdry tree
glacial wind
#

well i tried to explain, i give up

chilly mural
#

actually, I wonder how long do wooting stuff actually try out the split spacebar 60he.

#

Maybe at least 2-4 months

tawdry tree
#

surely

chilly mural
#

Wouldn't be surprised if they find no issue with it.

austere creek
uneven cradle
#

Imagine it gets tested for gaming unlike most split spacebar use cases

glacial wind
#

i could see it being heavily liked depending on the game. Like some wow pvp players would love another easy to press mod key

#

finding good binds in some games sucks and having that extra key is big

tawdry tree
chilly mural
agile grove
#

we get it, you like bigger right space

#

can we move on without continuing to bring it up?

chilly mural
#

It's the best all in one alternative to 80he/60he + woot numpad.

#

Just 60hev2 with split spacebar is perfect.

fringe quarry
#

how much more expensive will split be

sacred elm
#

Im tired reading split spacebar bs. If you dont like it, others will like it. Not everyone cares about sYmMetRy

Also its always you aligner, arguing on some weird stuff

ionic breach
#

nah aligner is just saying bigger right will sell better and is more popular

thorn zealot
#

Just not for me

because gamers who do get used to one extra bind will like it, so I could see for example if it's WoW gamers they see someone like chanimal use it and more people try it over time

to be clear for myself is it 3 buttons that act as space bar or 3 diff keys

optimum has one flaw which is it's fit for optimums finger lengths

will there be a seperate numpad from wooting or is there a numpad that fits the slyte of the white zinc alloy case?

no and no

#

Hope not

tawdry tree
#

surely it won’t be

stray tiger
#

I saw the voting results... People basically voted for the exact same switches they already make lol

slate remnant
#

So I just set up my wooting and it was working but now it’s not….. any advice?

#

It was just on and now it won’t work

stray tiger
#

Which board?

slate remnant
#

60HE+

stray tiger
#

Any mods or using a different cable?

Downloaded the updates but now it won’t work

stray tiger
slate remnant
#

We’ve tried that a couple times, even tried a new cord just to be safe and nothings worked

stray tiger
#

Also, if you have a another machine to try, even if a laptop to rule out the Mach

slate remnant
#

We did that…. And we plugged in the old keyboard and everything is working great….. just for some reason the wooting is not wanting to work

#

Not sure what else to do…. It’s brand new out of the box

stray tiger
#

If these steps do not help the next step would be to open a support ticket through the Wooting hub

slate remnant
#

Ok thank you

harsh dove
#

Bout to go into hibernation until a company finally decides RGB doesn't matter and we need different materials for HE switches

#

or create my own anti-RGB Switch company

#

we gotta start making switches out of just maximum silicone

#

i have 80he pcr case but not sure if i should get zinc or gt-80 any suggestions?

stray tiger
quartz galleon
#

I should have clarified my fault. I like the pcr case, feels great but I have a 60he with tofu case. I would like to implement a metal case with my 80he

stray tiger
#

In that case pick the one that looks best to you or go with the zinc since it's really unique. I love my zinc case

quartz galleon
#

Yeah it seems like it, trying to find aftermarket cases is a struggle and wooting offering free shipping is a bonus too

stray tiger
#

No one else makes a zinc case and something like the raw zinc looks unique

tropic urchin
#

also gives you longer JST cable which is nice and a lil more secure

#

I ended up really resenting the bottom case screws since it adds alot of unnecessary time if you like to mod

#

GT80 is also a little bit brighter than Zinc

how tf do i clean bdz off of my stabs

that's going to be a pain

did you overlube?

jade prairie

not really but the wires arent straight so every stab has slight rattle

#

slash ping

glacial wind
#

oh then just wipe off the lube with a tissue and balance and reapply after

#

if it's just wire that's easy to wipe off

jade prairie

the housings have it everywhere so those are a bit tricky to clean

glacial wind

well housing doesn't matter if you're just trying to straighten wire

just leave that there

I misread.

Ti HEs, UR Ice Maxes (and Ultras), Phylina Lightnings

Depends on how much you like a dampened top out.

do you have sound tests for them

how is the stem woble with all of these new switches btw, because on the old HE switches it was quite bad, but have most manufacturers got it figured out now?

tawdry tree
#

All a significant improvement over Jade Pros. Phylina Lightings more so, even said to have less wobble than TTC KoMs and the likes.

tawdry tree

Max aren’t even for sale anymore are they

tawdry tree
#

About to say, yeah. Maxes did get discontinued, sort of.

glacial wind
tawdry tree
#

Maxes had slight friction, that’s probably why they were discontinued and replaced.

#

They sound quite different to Ultras though.

#

Similar to stem swapped Raptors compared to Lekkers for example.

languid kestrel
#

fucking ultra and max and pro, the most awful and annoying naming scheme to ever grace the world and every single chinese manu is obsessed with it

gaunt plume
#

That's right. Their sense of naming is hopeless. Jade, Max, Pro, Ultra, God, Emperor, King, Gaming, Dragon etc...

glacial wind
#

maybe their new thing is fungus sounding names

It's probably named by a 10-year-old child.

thats actually not that bad

everything from wooting or associated or designated or designed for has a markup of 500%

still not bad at all

wide turtle
#

Owlab Ti or WS flux for sound?

cyan lark
#

Preference

tropic urchin
#

Flux have some QC issues (too strong magnet/weak legs), but you won’t notice any issues on Wooting PCB if you remove the switches from the plate instead of from keyboard directly. Owlab will be a lot cheaper

#

Difference of $4.80 per 10 vs $20 per 10

glacial wind
#

they both sound good, although totally different sound profiles and ws flux is way louder

#

given the flux issues basically no one should buy them until the qc fixes are confirmed though

#

their sales seem pretty abysmal though, so looks like a lot of people just aren't buying them even due to price before you get to qc stuff that general public isn't super aware about

#

all the ali express listings have barely any sales for them

tropic urchin
#

They would be my top pick for $1 per switch, but $190 for 90 is straight fucked dogekek

glacial wind
#

even at $2 maybe you could justify it in ways if it were amazing in every way, but then their qc is so scuffed that there's no way to justify it

sacred elm
#

They sound good only on plastic plate

#

varedis wont agree with me

taishan gt = og kom, flux = uranus esports, somehow the jade gaming recolor is worse than the original

according the chart, flux is almost 3x worse than the top which is TTC KOM RGB.

oh yes the mystery testing šŸ”„

sacred elm

so it'd be the one at the top magneto rgb

#

they just took the rgb mold and used pom mats

tropic urchin
glacial wind
tropic urchin
#

to me they've just felt like shorter spring POMs with a different sound imo

tropic urchin
#

granted tests and real world experience usually isnt always the same

glacial wind
#

it goes magneto rgb > magneto rgb recolor valentines day edition > magneto og if you wanted the order of them

tropic urchin
sacred elm
#

nah i swear i can feel that its not, fluxes arent as hair trigger as poms

tropic urchin
#

you can get into the weeds of if you think either has more top wobble than the other or w/e but its genuinely very close

#

atleast from my experience using both

#

OG POMs were very active due to their lighter + longer spring

cyan lark
#

Still loving those OG poms in my salv for gaming

tropic urchin
#

but from a pure wobble perspective they should be almost equal

glacial wind
#

honestly it's kind of crazy how long the kom line has held at the top as far as stability goes
