yeah they've been out for quite awhile now

#

i forget when their first release was but a lot of folk didn't even touch them for ages due to the initial pricing

sacred elm
#

performance pom > fluxes, feel pom < fluxes, sound pom < fluxes 🥀

#

tikken will save us

cyan lark
#

Man it's gonna be a transition going back to 4mm

#

but I am looking forward to it

sacred elm
#

yea lol

cyan lark
#

Hopefully they're great, but I do wish I just had 4mm travel KoMs, at least for my typing heavy board

cyan lark
#

I just like how they feel overall

#

And I like the clack feedback when typing

#

All preference stuff

#

I'm sure I'd like fluxies but I only play a rich person on TV

#

Conversational left turn: how often do you mouse aficionados change your skates due to wear?

glacial wind
#

maybe every 6 months if i'm using a lot, but honestly i just do it out of habit since i have a stack of jade skates

sacred elm
#

rn i experiment a lot, so switch them pretty often

#

when hana arrives ill try obsidian airs and cyclones

cyan lark
#

I felt like venturing out and now I, too, have a stack of a few kinds. Been using obsidian pro, but now have some jade pro air and obsidian pro air that I haven't tried yet cause I feel bad about removing skates that are still in pretty good shape.

sacred elm
#

try cyclones

#

i ordered them today

cyan lark
#

I can't add to the stack! I still haven't tried either the jade or obsidian airs T_T

ahh

#

I've found stock PTFE to get crunchy pretty quickly on glass

sacred elm
#

on glass

solar tundra
#

I never tried PTFE on Glass, rn i obly used U-PE

sacred elm
#

cyclones smoother than jades and top2 durability

#

😳

solar tundra
#

But when my Sora x Vaxee arrived i tried them on Glass with the Stock ones and it felt pretty smooth icl

sacred elm
#

for short period of time

solar tundra
#

but idk about durability if i need to switch them ever 3 days

solar tundra
sacred elm

#

the real thing with cyclones is that they are dead quiet and very smooth while having some speed to it

tropic urchin

#

Ive got to do some PCB surgery today and decide whether or not Im cutting off some of the PCB to make it work in the January case or if Im going to just save that PCB for another board and build the January as MX (which means Ill never use it likely)

sacred elm

#

cyclones not only have some subtle speed to them, but they just glide

#

and are 100% silent

# tall hollow rn I have my eyes laid on some tiger ice V2 dots

tiger ices are nice ones, if you have a faster pad you may or may not like them (I liked them until I didnt on my raiden pad). If you have a slower pad then you can go for jade skates which should be pretty fast and smooth. imo the weight of the mouse only plays a role in what skates to get depending on if you find it more difficult to control versus 35-50g mice

tall hollow
tropic urchin
#

for slower control pads id say Xray jades are a good bet, for balance pads id say jades/tiger ices are a good bet, and for faster pads tiger ices/obsidians are fire

tall hollow
tropic urchin
#

yeah id say tiger ices are a good starting point

tall hollow
#

Yea

tropic urchin
#

if you want more control off dots, id say try full skates but seems like you have one of those weird zeromouse skele mice so may not be applicable

tropic urchin
#

you got a hot wheels mouse xD

tall hollow
#

Real lmao

#

But yeah, tiger ice v2 seems the best to me

tropic urchin
#

yeah they're really good and for your use case on a medium speed pad, id say they're a good bet

#

combined with a low weight

tall hollow
#

Indeed

tropic urchin
#

do you even feel yourself gripping your mouse at 18g

#

my beastx pro feels like air at like high 30g

#

i couldnt even imagine halving it

tall hollow
#

And it's surprisingly comfortable to hold

#

Since the positions and angles of the grips were specially designed for the way hold my mice with my fingertips

I really like it!

I'm having a hard time pulling out everglide sticky rice v2 switches, anyone got some advice

sacred elm
neon nexus
#

yeah that's not gonna work

#

they have a little hook at the bottom that grabs the pcb

cyan lark
#

That's... what?

neon nexus
#

sec

neon nexus
#

I alr broke like 2 of them so far

#

while tryna get my stabs out

sacred elm
#

You wont have issues with those legs. You need to unscrew 15 screws on the back of the pcb then separate pcb and plate.

#

Then you can pull switches from the plate

neon nexus
#

You can't

#

they literally latch onto the pcb

#

and hold themselves in place

marsh saffron
#

break them all off and buy ti he dogekek

sacred elm
#

Every switch has those legs

neon nexus
#

yeah but they have little hooks that grab the pcb from the back

#

Awwwwww 💔

neon nexus
#

but the keycaps are not the issue

#

the issue are still the switches holding themselves in

sacred elm
#

Odd, I have never heard of that issue. Get decent switch puller then and try again

#

And get other switches without weird design

neon nexus
#

yeah but that won't solve my issue xd

sacred elm
#

Whats the point of those hooks wtf

neon nexus
#

I guess so they are more stable?

#

idk

#

Didn't see it when I bought them

#

but they are a pain to get out

sacred elm
tawdry tree
neon nexus
#

I pulled several of them out xd

cyan lark
#

Yeah WTF

#

That's demonic

tawdry tree
marsh saffron
#

clip the posts and get new switches ig

sacred elm
#

yea i was confused, i have never heard of those hooks

neon nexus
#

yeah didn't see them when I bought them

marsh saffron
#

my keyboard be sounding good asf rn wtf

tawdry tree
#

those hooks allow you to use them plateless

neon nexus
#

i c

tawdry tree
#

but if you use them with a plate, getting them out is basically impossible

fringe quarry
#

just buy new board

neon nexus
#

I could clip them off and just use them like normal switches

tawdry tree
#

if you wanna do that, sure

marsh saffron
#

👀

neon nexus
#

until I get new ones some other day at least

sacred elm
#

sticky rice moment

tawdry tree
#

it might not be really worth though, unless you really like their sound and feel

cyan lark
tropic urchin
#

@cyan lark do you have a Pom/owlab stability test handy

neon nexus
#

now how do I clip them off with the pcb on xd

cyan lark
tropic urchin
#

No pressure smile

#

It will be the decider if I try them or not

tawdry tree
neon nexus
#

yea just clip the hooks off

tawdry tree
#

they don’t stick out far enough to cut them off with anything really

neon nexus
#

true

tropic urchin
#

They are very cheap, but if they aren’t in the same ball park as Pom/flux I’m just gonna pray fluxies are good enough in Benom

tawdry tree
#

have you tried squeezing the pin together and then pulling it out

neon nexus
#

might just try to push them thru the pcb

#

yeah its hard

tawdry tree
#

yeah like that

neon nexus
#

but works

tawdry tree
sacred elm
#

those switches are not real

neon nexus
#

xd

jade prairie
#

yeah just like that😩🤖

sacred elm
#

unbelievable

neon nexus
#

at least they sound nice for now

#

I mean some are really easy to pull out for some reason

tawdry tree
# sacred elm those switches are not real

they literally have everything that makes them harder to pull. those side hooks, the front and back hooks that can’t be disengaged and on top of that fucking clip in pins

#

😭😭

neon nexus
#

my home row is easy to pull out

sacred elm
#

pour some gpl105 on your keyboard, surely it will help

Ooof bottom

stray tiger
#

Just cut down this PCB to better fit the January60 and switched to fluxes. Since its an aluminum plate I even put some foam between the plate and pcb and they still dont sound good. I just dont think they are going to work on a hard plate

cyan lark
#

Yeah they don't beat KoMs, but they're the best I've felt at a reasonable price point.

tropic urchin
#

Fuck

#

I’m really locked in

#

Life isn’t fair SwitchyCry

stray tiger
#

What are you whining about?

cyan lark
#

He wants the Tis to match KoM's stability

sacred elm
#

you are asking too much varedis sorry 😭

cyan lark
#

We all want KoM stability

tropic urchin
#

I know I’m just going to be annoyed it’s fine

tidal frigate
#

I bought owlab guys

tropic urchin
tidal frigate
#

Now lets wait for my 20€

#

And 60hev2

stray tiger
#

LOL, the TI's are one of the most stable switches out there. I mean who is trying to wobble a switch when it's maxed press. Is that even part of a way people play or type?

cyan lark
#

Thockfather if you want to presell a bajillion Tikkens you could compare them with KoMs (and have it be favorable)

stray tiger
#

Sound like there is a market out there for me to make a switch so stable that any off-center pressing binds it up but if you press straight down there is ZERO tolerance. Then I'll make a killing

fringe quarry
#

i mean i only care about wobble at full press lowkey

cyan lark

Q4 2025 😭

stray tiger
#

I'll tell you this now though so that if you're waiting and not sure what switch to get, the Tikken's are a deeper sounding switch than the TI's by a decent amount. So if you want higher pitched, don't wait on the tikkens

cyan lark

No

Just normal layout

Mr Thock quick question

#

When u get a chance

stray tiger
prime orbit
#

How does a POM plate compare to fr4? In terms of sound and feel?

stray tiger
prime orbit
#

Ty sir

#

Apparently PC plate is the deepest sounding

#

But if I break a 4th one I’ll never hear the end of it 😭

fringe quarry

imma make a plateless raeds build tomorrow

#

stay tuned

marsh saffron

#

no crying please

Crying because I've never heard something so glorious

fringe quarry
#

i see

#

thank you

stray tiger
#

@tropic urchin Did you ever upload a sound test with your flux? Also, what plate did you use? Again, Im struggling to make them sound good. I'll try on FR4 tomorrow or Tuesday

sacred elm
#

he uses fr4

stray tiger
sacred elm
#

this is what he posted

#

He likes them on FR4, but I didnt really like them on that plate. They sounded the best on PC imo

stray tiger
#

OK, then we agree. That sound test isn't amazing (to me), but Im happy that he likes it.

#

PC is the only thing Ive had any luck with but might try POM at some point

tropic urchin
#

Heading to the gym

stray tiger
#

Feel like Im spending too much time trying to make these things sound good., It's like another Duhuk moment where they just didnt sound great period

#

@sacred elm dm me rq

I ws not very impressed with Lekkers 2.0, It was an improvement but I stuck with Jade Pros, are the Closed Lekker switches announced for the 60heV2 intended to be a direct upgrade and improvement on the 2.0s or just a sidegrade for those that want the feel and sound of closed switches ?

you can sort of try it already. with the 2.25 on the right side, you thumb would have to be directly under your index finger to press it. that you can tru on a big space bar.

it ain’t great.

for short durations it’s fine or if you only use that button once a year like sno does I think

but in normal usage.. 😬

Same reason I don't use split backspace. I like having a single layout across all boards because I tend to change them up every day or so

can you recommend any brand for non he mechanical keyboards

Also you'd have to tell me new or used

123wpm 96% accuracy and that's switching layouts during the timing

That's single layout right?

Me over here with a 60wpm average on a good day.

Can't keep up with you young bucks

cyan lark
#

Brother I'm celebrating my 10y anniversary soon, I don't know if I can count myself in the young buck category anymore 😭

#

But I did start playing on computers when I was like 6 which probably has some advantages

thats th ebest i can do

Bet there's a curve, too, for kids that grew up on the iPad instead.

When I had cheap blue switch keyb, I had 140-150wpm on avg. With wooting I can barely get 110 😆

#

is 35 bucks for ducky one 2 sf a good deal

#

?

cyan lark
stray tiger
high lion
#

nope

#

its 65%

stray tiger
#

Ok wrong ducky then. One of the two older 60 models did

high lion
#

i think the sf one add that 5%

#

Based on performance, is the KOM POM switches the same as the KOM RGB switches?

#

or vice versa?

tawdry tree
#

with both slightly different molds.

#

KoM POMs and KoM RGBs are ever so slightly tighter than the regular KoMs

halcyon jungle
#

Ah I see..

#

In terms of the wooting version however, both wooting exclusive switches are pretty much the same then

#

Same in performance, aside from the rgb right?

halcyon jungle

#

KoM and Magneto were kinda interchangeable for a while earlier on. Seems like the name Magneto has fallen out of favor.

I think Marvel sued them or something lol

For sure.

halcyon jungle
#

Thank you guys :)

#

So overall, for the wooting exclusives no performance diff, just rgb wise

#

Also marvel sucks for suing people who like the name magneto, got it

tawdry tree

Yes. Light and sound.

Alright, guess the wooting exclusive rgb is it 🥳🥳

Prepare lube for it

cyan lark
#

Self lubing as I sweat into my keyboard trying to press the keys

halcyon jungle
#

^^^

#

Why lube it when the tears of lost competitive games works too!

halcyon jungle
#

comparing the two wooting exclusives, no different aside from the rgb factor

#

This is good info nonetheless

#

POM version will sound better

#

POMs still have decent RGB

halcyon jungle
#

for a clear 80HE with glorious polycarbonate keycaps however..

#

I was thinking of getting the frosted case with the module and topping it off with the polycarbonate clear switches from glorious

halcyon jungle
#

The POM’s have really decent rgb but idk if it’ll shine thru the way I want it to on the keyb

#

Easy solution: buy both

#

I love decision making

sacred elm
#

Nah, if you really care about rgb, get RGB version and lube it

tawdry tree
halcyon jungle
#

Yeah! A buddy of mine picked up Glorious Polychroma keycaps

#

I’ve been spelling it wrong this whole time

#

He got them for me and I’ve been meaning to build another custom keyboard with them, aiming for a semi clear look atleast

#

I scored a mchose ace60 for 35 usd

#

On ali

#

But idk if i should get jt

stray tiger
#

Arent they that price normally?

fallen pecan
high lion
#

Usually 40

#

In their website

#

On ali its more expensive but with free shipping so i was able to pull some coupons

fallen pecan
#

the 40 on their website is the base model, don't get that

#

you'll want the 60pro or 60x, the prior has north facing LEDs, the latter, adjustable feet, south facing LEDs and strap loop

stray tiger
#

Is the spyware free or do you pay extra for it?

fallen pecan

mchose isn't the spyware board

that's some other chinese brand, Aula

You are lengthening the process for others who would be interested in purchasing though, not much point in signing up if you knew you weren't buying

Would hope most people buying this case aren't doing so paycheck to paycheck

most people entering the raffle dont plan to buy

#

Ethan, it's not deep, it's just shitty. Entering the raffle you had no intention of paying for, delaying the win for someone else and acting like everyone else is doing the same, is just...

steel ibex

fair enough

So u just end up wasting everyone’s time

better then using 5 alts to all enter the raffle

stray tiger
#

Well my first response about karma was sufficient. If you used up all your raffle luck on this win, that's going to suck.

steel ibex

regardless of if i won or not trust me id have bad luck anyways'

#

trust me on this one

stray tiger

if imma be honest i still cant see how this caused so much problem with a 4 day delay for someone else to get the case, if they do choose to get it

but maybe im wrong idk

just selfish dirtbag behavior

#

like so pointless lol

It's a waste of other human'

Not that complex

Someone else coulda had it, and you're holding that up for a few days. Just kinda lame is all.

I think you just need to grow up, then maybe one day you'll understand.

fair enough, testing my luck without gambling is my only excuse havo

whats yall favorite stabs

quasi hinge

Not my finger

quasi hinge

These are the only stabs that worked with my silver CF plate

glacial wind

#

^^

fringe quarry
glacial wind
#

quietest honestly no idea, folks rarely be looking at noise level for stabs

#

the difference is just slightly different structures for how the stabs work but end result is all 3 give a fairly easy to install and no ticking stab

#

there's really no "This stab is definitely better than the others"

#

all 3 work great and are fairly easy to get working well with just a light lube

#

typeplus is the tightest by a little bit, but whether that's good for you or not is a preference thing - some folks don't like their stabs that tight, some do

fringe quarry
#

okay, guess ill just look for cheapest and easiest available option then

#

do yall use long pole with stuff like ti or nah

glacial wind
#

that's personal preference. Honestly getting non long pole + geon stem spacer gives more room for you to install other switches in future

silver nest
glacial wind
#

like for example if you wanted to use stem spacer with owlab now and wanted to try the wooting 4mm later, you can't do that as well with a long pole stab, but with a normal length stab + stem spacer you just remove the spacer

silver nest
#

tx ap long poles are really good apparently

glacial wind
#

they're okay, a bit out of favor now with more newer stabs but still fine

fringe quarry
silver nest
#

idk anything about stabs tbh
all i do is just fill them up with syringe lube snd im happy
