naaaaaa trash :D

[tropic urchin]

Just now they aren’t the stability kings

[fluid ravine]

in the bin they go

[tropic urchin]

So their street cred is in the bin

[fluid ravine]

lmao

dethroning POMS

[ivory gulch]

Which tenZ do you prefer?

[fluid ravine]

?

[ivory gulch]

L45 or L60

[untold wigeon]

tenz?

[sacred elm]

ElevenZ

[ivory gulch]

Yes

[untold wigeon]

TwelveZ

[fluid ravine]

again it's really preference to your needs

[untold wigeon]

preference

[fluid ravine]

we can't determine on what gram force your finger would like to handle

[untold wigeon]

everything in this keyboard community is preference

[tawdry tree]

wrong, whichever gf tenz uses will make him pro too

don’t doubt him

[untold wigeon]

wooting vs venom?
preference

[fluid ravine]

mbmb LMAO

[tropic urchin]

What do you use now

[ivory gulch]

L60

[untold wigeon]

is the January usable for venom?

[tropic urchin]

How do you feel about them

Do you love it? Do you want to try something different?

[fluid ravine]

wootnom

[tropic urchin]

I’m in the minority that likes 45g springs for fps but it will be personal preference

[ivory gulch]

Well, they seem to be slow

[fluid ravine]

another question would be like, is 60grams too heavy? Do you need lighter?

[untold wigeon]

oh nvm

u have to mod it

i might purchase the 60he v2 then

good bye 7u

[fluid ravine]

noooooo

7u :(

beven o

[untold wigeon]

i have venom mx tho

[cloud pivot]

raw metal on the other hand 😎

[untold wigeon]

@fluid ravine choose for me

[fluid ravine]

oh lord

put me on the spot

[cloud pivot]

bonus points if the surface is glossed out

[ivory gulch]

What is more similar to mechanical springs l60 or 45?

[cloud pivot]

so it shows scratches even easier

[cloud pivot]

60

[untold wigeon]

nonono not venom or wooting

[fluid ravine]

LMAO

[cloud pivot]

well

[untold wigeon]

pho

or

pad thai

[cloud pivot]

technically both are similar

[fluid ravine]

oh you fricker

[untold wigeon]

[untold wigeon]

HAHAHAHHAHAHA

ngl i wanna eat something rn

[fluid ravine]

UGHHHHH

[untold wigeon]

between those 2

[cloud pivot]

but l60 falls in line with enthusiast keyboard scene preferring heavier weightings (mx blacks)

[fluid ravine]

hmmmmmm

pad thai

[untold wigeon]

alright

thank you

for the

[fluid ravine]

yup

[untold wigeon]

answer

[cloud pivot]

the lighter l45 on the other hand is similar to mx red weighting, which is common across regular keyboards

[fluid ravine]

i feel like im betraying my own kind not saying pho LMAO

[untold wigeon]

HAHHAHAHAHAHAH

[cyan lark]

Too hot for pho

[fluid ravine]

nah fr

it's way too hot out here these days

[untold wigeon]

true

[sacred elm]

No, it's not

[cloud pivot]

it is though wat

[fluid ravine]

nah you making me even more hungry rn, i just woke up hungry but i got no food in the house ever since i moved in. My parents threw out all of our food in the fridge.

[untold wigeon]

HAHAHHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHHAHA

my bad

[cloud pivot]

p sure it has always been 45-60

[fluid ravine]

hey >:(

[cloud pivot]

for reds

[untold wigeon]

sorry @fluid ravine

love ya

[fluid ravine]

[fluid ravine]

yup

it indeed has been 45g

[untold wigeon]

Are there any information about tikken springs yet?

[sacred elm]

No, MX Red actuation force is 45g and bottom out 64 or something, L45 initial force is 30g and bottom out 45

[untold wigeon]

i wanted to purchase the raptor v2, but i can't spring swap them

[cloud pivot]

WHAT THE

[fluid ravine]

oh shi

[cloud pivot]

so l60 it is then

[untold wigeon]

wanna see if tikken can spring swap, then i will hold on to my owti until tikken released

i love my 72.5g initial and 80ish bottom out

[fluid ravine]

been waiting for a release that would satisfy my purchase

[untold wigeon]

same

[cloud pivot]

62.5 objectively correct 🙏

[fluid ravine]

oh hell yeah

[tropic urchin]

I’d get L45s or just buy the L45 springs from the Wooting spring pack and swap em

[fluid ravine]

i've been using Rawhukies ever since duhuks been out

[untold wigeon]

i might pick up 60he v2, it will satisfy me because of "wooting"

[tropic urchin]

If I had more time to meme today it would be a little better but adhd brain is fried tempura

[fluid ravine]

i really want a strong and loud bottom out like duhuk without that top out bs

[untold wigeon]

that means i'm gonna purchase redux then

or should i just buy the prebuilt ver

[fluid ravine]

you should buy one of CAM's redux

[untold wigeon]

the patina?

oh wait

[untold wigeon]

it's brass

[untold wigeon]

no black, and i'm asian

[fluid ravine]

oh shi cam selling his nipple case

[untold wigeon]

now all i need to think later is prebuilt or module

but i'm gonna purchase the redux now

since it's on discount and i wanna change (retire) my OG tofu

[fluid ravine]

buys in regret

[fluid ravine]

whatchu got in your og tofu

[untold wigeon]

60he v1

[fluid ravine]

ah

good ol days

[untold wigeon]

i love tofu design

sorry geon (froggy)

[fluid ravine]

i retire my tofu v1 clone

and my wooting v1

[untold wigeon]

what u have now

[fluid ravine]

benom

and leggy

[untold wigeon]

i see

[fluid ravine]

i just to show just cus

kek

[untold wigeon]

i wanna see how much the prebuilt cost (since the case has some issues)

[fluid ravine]

first image is my current build

[untold wigeon]

the full white is clean

[fluid ravine]

i let my friend borrow or hold onto my benom while i was gone in vn for a month

he decided to put his pbt keycaps on it

[untold wigeon]

i see

what keeb was he using before?

[fluid ravine]

the cream color was a bit off since the case is l9 cream color

[sacred elm]

Source: Trust me bro

[fluid ravine]

lucky65 v2

[sacred elm]

What do you mean case has some issues

It's not even out

[untold wigeon]

nahh, it will be more expensive if they found the solution

[untold wigeon]

i didn't mean issue for the users, but they're trying to find the correct coating

so it might bump the price(?)

I don't know

[fluid ravine]

did they ever do it for 80he white zinc?

[untold wigeon]

nope(?)

idk about that

but calder explained that it would cause some price bumps on 60he v2?

i want them to make the cheapest as it can be

[uneven cradle]

I don't think it was the issues that would cause the price bumps it's the fact that it is aluminum in the first place over plastic that's going to raise the price

[untold wigeon]

idk, i'm taking the words from first 60he v2 update vid

soo i thought it will cause higher price because case making method(?)

[uneven cradle]

Well yeah v1 is plastic and aluminum is more expensive to produce

[untold wigeon]

noo i wasn't comparing the v1 price to v2...

[sacred elm]

Depends which manufacturing process they choose.

[untold wigeon]

more of..
(they're trying to achieve small price bump $230 [example price] but because of the new case / coating making method it will be somewhere around $250 [another price example])

[untold wigeon]

yeah that's what i'm trying to say

depends on how the case is being made

if the prebuilt is <$250,
i might buy it for the strap

i hope the 60he v2 won't have the phantom press issues

[tawdry tree]

dye still clears. I like raw metal for the weight, a bit less so for the whole case

[tawdry tree]

surely

no flaking either surely

[cloud pivot]

i also have this one feeling where i prefer something really expensive to be pure

like CNC’d PC cases

those things are oof levels of money

(often costing more than alu variants due to the sheer CNC effort alone)

[tawdry tree]

this has to be universal

[tawdry tree]

having to slow down so the plastic doesn’t melt 💔🥀⛓️‍💥

[bright trout]

Is it possible to chat privately with someone about a custom I have a lot of questions ?

[sacred elm]

Just ask here, folks will help you out

[bright trout]

I am therefore planning to do my first custom and therefore I am thinking of taking the 60HE+ module or the 80HE with Holy80 or Holy60. Do I have to buy foam for the sound or does everything come with it?

[sacred elm]

Case foam comes with 60HE+ module and Holy60

It's not included with the Holy80, but comes with 80HE module + plastic case

[bright trout]

OKay thank's you
But so I'm going to go with a 60HE with holy60

I also saw that the Raptor V2 was not compatible with Cherry Mx, is it the profile of the keycaps?

[tulip rapids]

anyone got suggestions for what stabs i should get for venom pcb 7u

[steady halo]

typeplus

[sacred elm]

It's not compatible with Cherry MX keyboards

[untold wigeon]

typeplus

[sacred elm]

Only HE, so you are good

[tulip rapids]

this right?

[steady halo]

yep

and buy stem spaver

spacer*

[tulip rapids]

i already have those

[steady halo]

alright, so u're good to go

[bright trout]

Do you have an idea for good quality white keycaps?

[tulip rapids]

gotta wait for everything to restock 🥀

[sacred elm]

PBTfans BOW
Wuque BOW

If you want shinethrough, White Wooting PBT keycaps are good

[bright trout]

Thank's

@sacred elm
besides question I am currently in
french because not yet in custom but is it better to go to insi or iso

[calm pulsar]

let's go

[sacred elm]

If you are using ISO now and you're used to it get ISO

[uneven cradle]

Or get use to ANSI because you'll have a bunch more keycap options and it's better

[bright trout]

But for keycaps I am limited in the choices and I always wanted to have a US keyboard :/

[steady halo]

ansi or tsangan

[sacred elm]

ANSI = Pepperoni Pizza
ISO = Pineapple Pizza

[steady halo]

tsangan = ?

[sacred elm]

You tell me

[calm pulsar]

krabby patty

[steady halo]

tsangan = italiono pizza

[calm pulsar]

https://tenor.com/view/mrbendover1969-gif-6612512155659004207

[steady halo]

ewww krab

🦀

[left cairn]

Any1 got the new raptor v2 and can tell Something about them ? Cant find any review online

[steady halo]

oh wait

[sacred elm]

Get ANSI then

[left cairn]

Cant decide between geon raw / owlab ti and now the raptor v2 on the menu aswell

[uneven cradle]

Tsangan is basically ANSI with a modified sized bottom row

[oak jewel]

Seems like consensus is Raptorv2 > Owlab > Raws

[steady halo]

and split backspace

[bright trout]

I'm afraid I won't get used to it quickly ^^

[left cairn]

How do u know? Cant find any review / footage

[oak jewel]

I trust Jed

[calm pulsar]

yeah sno did a wobble test and they seem really nice

[uneven cradle]

Cursed

[sacred elm]

@left cairn Shared small comparisons

[left cairn]

Ure thr man @sacred elm ty

[steady halo]

what board was jed using

[sacred elm]

Optimum 60HE+

[calm pulsar]

it is cursed in the sense that it'll be hard to switch to boards with normal bs for a while after split bs

but I like the aesthetics and I use the upper key as dedicated delete key, comfy

[left cairn]

Also another question..is there any other case option then the gt80 ?

[oak jewel]

Bone80, Holy80

[fluid ravine]

could never go back to normal bs

rip

[oak jewel]

❤️

[left cairn]

Im about to buy a 80he. Last time i bought the 60he fully modded it (first board btw) and roght after the 80he waa announced ( and i quickly realised that 60 layout aint it )

[calm pulsar]

gg for us😭

[fluid ravine]

nah fr, everytime i use a normal board at school, keep hitting \ |, annoying af

[left cairn]

I thought about the holy 80 but i cant think of it not getting dusty inside ?!

[fluid ravine]

but like split bs and having bs above enter is so easy to reach, that's why i like it so much

[uneven cradle]

I don't even like 65% boards because of that extra key next to the backspace messes me up everytime

[sacred elm]

Your keyboard might sound hollow with Holy80

[oak jewel]

Definitely doesn't sound as good as it used to

[left cairn]

Yeah thats the second thought beside the dust i got

[sacred elm]

You don't like GT80?

[fluid ravine]

got a sound test? Haven't heard what the holy80 sounds like

[harsh dove]

I have CNCd PC Case

My Protagonist

[fluid ravine]

why is it even called holy in the first place, it dont look so holy

[oak jewel]

Can do tomorrow, but it sounds like it looks: hollow

[oak jewel]

hole-y 👀

[harsh dove]

^^

[fluid ravine]

yup not surprised to be honest

[harsh dove]

That's why is called Holy

It's a play on words

[fluid ravine]

hole-y moleh

[uneven cradle]

[harsh dove]

[fluid ravine]

I wonder is there a board named Antagonist?

[calm pulsar]

I wonder if ramune60 is a CNCd PC case too

[harsh dove]

There is

that's the next one he's working on

[fluid ravine]

oh yeaaaa

[little glen]

bro thinks he's the protagonist 😭

[harsh dove]

[trail bane]

As owner of boly80 can say holy stays clean inside but not outside

[fluid ravine]

[calm pulsar]

tkl without frow

[harsh dove]

yup yup

[little glen]

i like the materials choice on the protagonist

[tropic urchin]

These renders are cool and all but where’s the homeless guy living on the Colorado mtns keyboard render

[tidal frigate]

Antagonist would be 75%

[little glen]

i want something with copper bottom and pc top

[trail bane]

S*xy

[oak jewel]

Yep, the cracks next to the lightbar just gets filled with stuff constantly

downgraded it to the pegboard, back on my tofu60 now

[left cairn]

Aight thanks.

I guess its not possible to buy the 80 HE plate without a case so save some bucks?

[harsh dove]

basically

[trail bane]

So fr

[harsh dove]

Yeah I also have copper "keyframe" as they call it

[robust girder]

yo i have jade pros, are raptor v2s worth getting or what?

[trail bane]

Ofc

[trail bane]

But

[oak jewel]

Yeah, but if you're not in a hurry, wait for tikkens 👀

[trail bane]

Copper gang

[little glen]

thats p cool

[tropic urchin]

To put things into perspective I also had Jade pros and upgraded to POMs and they felt light years better. Raptor V2 has better stability than POM now

[little glen]

the edges are a bit too thicc for me tbh but other than that i rlly like it

[calm pulsar]

im hard

[trail bane]

Have a insane plan to order copper case bottom for boly80

[harsh dove]

Yeah fair, I like thicc

[trail bane]

And plate ofc

[sacred elm]

Plate?

[calm pulsar]

do these bottoms exist or you want to make a custom one

[sacred elm]

Do you mean daughterboard?

[trail bane]

Custom

Kbdfans guy hate me

[trail bane]

[left cairn]

Bruhh.. 25$ shipping cost for the raptor v2's 🥲

[sweet oak]

just geon things

[grave lagoon]

You can buy the module and remove the case during checkout but you lose out on a cheap plastic case, usb cable, switch/keycap puller, and daughter board

worst mistake made

rip shipping cost

[calm pulsar]

if you're from US they will be stocked on divinikey soon I believe

[left cairn]

Germany..

[sacred elm]

They will be available on DeltaKey, so wait for it

[trail bane]

RR gang

[left cairn]

Im in the loophole i want it yesterday

[tropic urchin]

Same

[left cairn]

What do u think how until delta will get them

[harsh dove]

oh you think that's bad?

[austere creek]

my gf trying to order 1 small plushy for 15 bucks.... shipping was 70

[sacred elm]

Not sure about that, ask them

[calm pulsar]

was it a labubu

[oak jewel]

If it was, shipping should've been 100usd

[tropic urchin]

Caught in 4k

[harsh dove]

Fight me

[little glen]

wooting x labubu collab when

[calm pulsar]

☠️

[trail bane]

Buy her a knitted Caseoh

[tropic urchin]

If we’re getting a knob why not switchy labubu

[harsh dove]

Switchy Labubu gonna watch you in your sleep

[calm pulsar]

wooting heelys when

[harsh dove]

and steal your keyboard

[tropic urchin]

True

[robust girder]

do you know what the difference is in sound?

[tropic urchin]

Analog ahh movement irl

[left cairn]

Okay delta is like 10$ shipping so not worth to wait for 15$... Right? 🤫

[tropic urchin]

Jade pros will be deeper sounding (like orchids), but I’m anticipating raptors will sound closer to RAWs

[trail bane]

Fight this guy

[sacred elm]

If you want switches ASAP probably no

[trail bane]

Ts is tuff

[robust girder]

ok, i am also a clack maxxer so hoping they sound super clacky since they are an hmx mold

[left cairn]

I dont have the keyboard.. i mean i still got my 60he but want to go for the 80 HE.

[tropic urchin]

They will sound clacky

That I’m sure

[calm pulsar]

fellow clack maxxer

[austere creek]

no she thinks they are creepy and worthless

[tropic urchin]

They will also sound nicer than POM so I’d order them and not look back given their stability

[oak jewel]

thank god

[austere creek]

im already thanking me every day

[left cairn]

Also any ISO (DE) enjoyer here? How freakin hard is it to find any decent keycaps?! Hello?!

(pls dont tell me to switch to ansi)

[tropic urchin]

Well that is certainly an option

[left cairn]

Im gonna stand my ground (im too old for new stuff, change aint an option)

[tropic urchin]

Fair

[tropic urchin]

There’s just not a lot of demand for those keycaps, trying to find ISO-CH was crazy hard to find anything with good quality before

[tropic urchin]

Oh cool butthole eyes

Fire

[calm pulsar]

ISO aint real

[tropic urchin]

I’d buy one

[tropic urchin]

I believe it

Cuz there’s no plates or keycaps

😂

[austere creek]

LA-I have a Flammenwerfer and know how to use it-BU

[harsh dove]

I don't like them either personally

[tropic urchin]

That’s what a labubu enjoyer would say

[harsh dove]

but if Wooting made one, I'd buy it

[tropic urchin]

To seem cool with the Wooting employees

[tropic urchin]

Interesting

Don’t believe you Mr cam

Cal posted it

What kind of colors are you looking for?

[harsh dove]

Don't switch to ANSI

[little glen]

https://oblotzky.industries/products/gmk-cyl-norde is pretty good if you just want something basic

[cyan lark]

I want all labubu novelties for my keycaps

[little glen]

If not this, itll get difficult and/or expensive (or you just go for blanks)

I was tipsy

[tropic urchin]

Or should I take out my Turing Labubu if you’re going to be testy instead of tipsy today

[cyan lark]

the opal spoke to me

[calm pulsar]

so cool they made a keycap set to look like it's for an AI generated keyboard

[tropic urchin]

https://tenor.com/view/canucks-voodoo-gif-18339359

[cyan lark]

That might just be ISO

[left cairn]

I actually dont have a preference. It just has to look good. I know it when i see it 😂

[little glen]

https://monacokeys.de/collections/keycaps could also check here, they have a decent amount of iso de

[tropic urchin]

That will be the infinitely expensive approach

[little glen]

Oblotzky has a great selection of GMK, tho a lot of those do not have german keys, however they usually include ISO keys at least so you can use then even if the legends are wrong

[tropic urchin]

Or the ansi approach

[harsh dove]

ANSI should be universal

ISO should be removed from Earth

[tropic urchin]

With small right shift and you got a deal

[left cairn]

Since i switched to my 60 HE with non-shine-thorugh keycaps (first custom keyboard) my typing speed fell off hard and i got quiet frequently typing errors. I assume its the layout + no rgb-caps so i would prefer some rgb

[little glen]

I do have a gmk mictlan set with german kit and novelties that i am not using atm

Well for rgb caps i would just get the wooting ones tbh

But the typing speed and errors are probably just cause you are not used to the responsiveness of the keys

And are hitting keys on the way to hit the one you actually want to press

[left cairn]

Nah im actually pressing the wrong keys

Even tho i typing blind i guess its like seeing it in some kind of view angle and without the rgb i sometimes look onto the board and have to search the key ( got a dark gaming room )

[tropic urchin]

Even for ansi there aren’t a great supply of good quality and cool backlit keycaps (I tried early on and settled for a GMK set)

Best bet for RGB is taking the Wooting default caps

[left cairn]

Black white looks banger but too much money to try because i think the no-rgb wont work with me

[harsh dove]

Yeah I would just get the Wooting Shrine-thru's tbh

Most others aren't great quality

[trail bane]

Pbtfans?

[tropic urchin]

I was so pissed trying to find some

[harsh dove]

Yeah lol

[tropic urchin]

All you have are the side key shine thru or the topographical disaster sets

Or both

[harsh dove]

Lol yeah basically

freakin Topography

I blame Highground

[tropic urchin]

Now I am minimal RGB fiend with a love of GMK and PBTfans

[harsh dove]

Yeah I never use rgb except for caps lock

[tropic urchin]

I use a nice light purple

I need my salt lake keycaps 😭

[left cairn]

Sorry? Didnt get u what ure trying to say

[calm pulsar]

pbtfans is a keycap brand

might check em too

[left cairn]

Already did but im pretty sure they didnt got iso de

[calm pulsar]

look for extra kits on product pages cause it is not always that ISO parts are included in the main kit

also its even more rare to see DE specifically

[polar girder]

Yo which plate(s) should I buy if I try these keysnaps?

Just fr4?

[fluid ravine]

i mean plate shouldnt be a big deal at all since keysnap is attached onto the pcb unless you're going for a different sound profile

[polar girder]

Can’t use tadpole plate for it

[fluid ravine]

oh shi you have og frog mini with venom pcb right?

[calm pulsar]

bro doesnt know og frog specifics

[fluid ravine]

mane i forgot he even had og froggy

[calm pulsar]

I keep a list of everyone who was a frog

jk but I remember most of em I think

[fluid ravine]

is my name on it

leggera is welcome too🌹

[polar girder]

Yeah lol

[polar girder]

Heck nah

[polar girder]

No

Poser alert

[left cairn]

Damn the PBTfans Crosshair look fire.

But 100 bucks for a 'probably still missing the rgb' is too much

[polar girder]

Does bro even keyboard?

Press 1 for doubt

[calm pulsar]

if you must have rgb legends then just keep stock caps, doesnt get better than that on quality

[peak breach]

Why is gmk black on white so expensive?

[harsh dove]

cause gmk

[golden venture]

´¨´

'

[trail bane]

German Quality

[calm pulsar]

its also one of the cheapest sets lol

among gmk

[polar girder]

Yo should I buy GMK Shaded or nah

Can only use one set

[harsh dove]

Yes

[polar girder]

Fk

[harsh dove]

[calm pulsar]

wait it comes with both at the same time? lol

[trail bane]

Gmk copper realest

[polar girder]

Huh?

[polar girder]

lol no

[calm pulsar]

like black on gray and gray on black

[harsh dove]

Nah you pick one or the other

[polar girder]

Black and gold is tempting

[calm pulsar]

ah okay

[polar girder]

Yeah I meant one like I already have cosmos

[trail bane]

Lol yes

[polar girder]

But only have one keyboard lol

[peak breach]

Huh?

[harsh dove]

Personally, I'd get BoG

BoG is one of my faves

[polar girder]

ITS ALSO ONE OF THE CHEAPEST SETS

CAN YOU HEAR ME NOW???

lol whoops sorry got excited

[calm pulsar]

AMONG GMK MIGHT I ADD

[polar girder]

YEAH THAT

[peak breach]

I dont get the joke

[tropic urchin]

If you get novelties too I think black and gold is my favorite set for a black case 🫦

[harsh dove]

Because you said huh? as if you couldn't hear what he said , so they yelling at you in CAPS

not sure if it's the case with tariffs now, but black snail also used to be one of the cheapest GMK sets available

[tropic urchin]

@tawdry tree predicted it all

[polar girder]

The joke is I’m “yelling” in caps lock

[tropic urchin]

Double explanation

Double the fun

[polar girder]

But it’s clearly not the fact that you “couldn’t hear him” why you couldn’t understand

[polar girder]

Yeah both are tempting ngl

But I’m trying to purge my extra sets not accumulate more ☠️

[peak breach]

But this is text how are they yelling?

[tawdry tree]

IT’S NOT THAT HARD TO UNDERSTAND MAN

[peak breach]

Maybe their caps lock is just broken

[calm pulsar]

I got 2 sets I need to sell too, too lazy to list

[harsh dove]

That's the joke

[tawdry tree]

😭

[peak breach]

But it isnt funny

[tawdry tree]

subjective

[calm pulsar]

Faker:

[sacred elm]

@tawdry tree Orchids tomorrow💔

[steady halo]

don't invite leggera T

[harsh dove]

It ain't that deep don't worry

[tawdry tree]

so excited you must be 🥰

[polar girder]

Rage baiting or too edgy?

The world may never know

https://tenor.com/view/theworldmayneverknow-idk-goodquestion-gif-5415227

[peak breach]

It’s 2d how is it gonna be deep?

[sacred elm]

Yes, I'm so excited to order Raptor V2s this week

[calm pulsar]

innovative sticking with a walled stem

[left cairn]

Out of curiosity.. Do the Glorious Polychroma V2 Keycaps work with the raptor v2 switches?

It says cherry mx (sry still a Board-noob)

[calm pulsar]

yeah they do, any cross stem caps will work

[left cairn]

Aight ty

But still unsure. They a little bit too much rgb for an old man like me

[calm pulsar]

you can adjust brightness

[harsh dove]

Are you just looking for shrine-thru caps?

[left cairn]

Already thought about pudding caps but they look kinda low quality

[harsh dove]

They are

[left cairn]

Yeah but have to be ISO DE

[harsh dove]

Ahhh

[little glen]

pudding keycaps should be a bannable offense

fr fr

[left cairn]

Thats the Problem

[little glen]

just get the wooting shine through caps

those are good

[harsh dove]

https://wooting.io/product/wooting-double-shot-pbt-backlit-keycap-set-just-black?Language=ANSI+United+States&Color=Just+Black

or can get white version

[left cairn]

Im lowkey looking for about 5 hrs today my brain is melting (only on my phone)

[calm pulsar]

yeah pudding caps are probably the edgiest shit that exists

[left cairn]

Got them wirh my 60 HE and sold them when i got my new ones 🥲

[little glen]

pudding caps look like you put low profile caps on your full profile switches but they dont even give you a lower profile

[harsh dove]

yeah in terms of shrine-thru, quality and options, Wooting would be your best bet tbh

they have ISO/DE

[left cairn]

Right now im thinking of getting the wooting black and whites to spice it up a little bit. Only decent option right now.

[harsh dove]

Yeah

[calm pulsar]

we all been there, until we matured out of rgb and found GMK

jk its all personal preference

[left cairn]

But like i said i probably need it for my brain to get the typing correct. First of i kinda enjoy some rgb but my gamingroom is kinda dark all the time ans most light on the desk comes from the board

[tropic urchin]

I’am not surę abt this premiz

[calm pulsar]

I think ideally for your health its better to have some additional light source, maybe on your monitor or behind it, but relying on keyboard rgb only to provide light seems sketchy

[harsh dove]

I'm using this from now on

people be taking me too seriously

and I always say don't take me seriously

[calm pulsar]

here is a Griffith one too

[left cairn]

Im actually bilding my new crib. Freshly bought and my gaming room will be the last to build but yesh will add some.light source (got some plans where i have to crack the walls)

Bevore i place my order.. is there anything useful on geon for a new 80 HE build? Have to get the maximum from those shippingfees

Couldnt find anything useful.

About to get 90 raptor v2. I guess 5 extra might be enough

[calm pulsar]

he does sell stuff like stabilizers (even though 80he stabs are already good), switch openers, lube kits etc
might grab some of that if you need

@fluid ravine geon stocked new colors for the frog looking opener

[steady halo]

GREEN FOR FROGGY

[steady halo]

@tulip rapids must buy

[calm pulsar]

I have a silver/gray looking one

[left cairn]

Aight ty. Got a lube kit. Probably wont open the switches from what ive heard / saw and the stabilizers gonna stay untouched i guess. Already failed at the 60 he to pimp them

[fluid ravine]

I NEEEEEEEED

[steady halo]

@calm pulsar don't ever forget this

[calm pulsar]

oh leggera tray mount

yeah true

[steady halo]

the worst tray mount (sound wise)

literally leggera is only made for gummy

[fluid ravine]

gummy is all you need

[steady halo]

ramune looks fire

[fluid ravine]

changed my mind on getting stiffer oring

i stuck with 40a

[tulip rapids]

ima get my first gummy and break my venom virginity

[fluid ravine]

no polyfill no foam

im happy

[calm pulsar]

still its a nice alternative to tofu redux at least

[steady halo]

nah, i prefer redux sound wise...

polyfill and u're done (if using internal brass)

[fluid ravine]

friction mount and polyfill

goated

[left cairn]

@calm pulsar thanks for ur help. Also to the other guys along the way.
80 he, raptor v2 and (probably) the backlight black+white caps ( gonna invest some hrs tomorrow maybe i will find the hol grail ) it is.
Case still needs to be chosen

[tulip rapids]

where do i buy weight for the leggera or you cant get that anymore?

[steady halo]

useless imo

it won't change the sound

[fluid ravine]

aesthetic wise and weight tho yeah

[tulip rapids]

but it becomes heavier

[calm pulsar]

the difference is so small it's just for looks tbh

[tulip rapids]

i like the chonk

[fluid ravine]

otherwise sound wise or case resonance doesn't change

taobao, ali, geon i think goku

[steady halo]

yeah, but u're breaking the deal about the leggera

leggera = light

[fluid ravine]

it's still light lol

[steady halo]

nononono

200 gram

is heavy

in mouse world

[fluid ravine]

yeah mouse

😂

miceee

[steady halo]

200g = not leggera

[fluid ravine]

🐭

mouse is mouse

frog is frog

dont compare >:(

[steady halo]

leggera = light

[tulip rapids]

Arc sensei how should i mod my leggera? Rn i got brass weight, wooting foam and pc plate in my tofu, iirc you recommended me the alu or cf plate but what should i put in the leggera case

[calm pulsar]

for case gt80 seems to be the best 3rd party one around, it has the most color options and the most popular

[steady halo]

200 gram = heavy

[steady halo]

cf

[fluid ravine]

so wtf is pesante

[calm pulsar]

I never had a leggera myself, but I think they are all good options
hyperboring also sell some venom compatible plates

[steady halo]

pesante is not leggera

[fluid ravine]

like what would you consider pesante then

[steady halo]

it's frog mini pesante

pesante = heavy

[fluid ravine]

yeah no duhhhhh

but if 200g is heavy

what is 3k grams

[calm pulsar]

what I would do on leggera is use fr4/alu, gummy mount and maybe some polyfill

[tulip rapids]

is it stiff or on the softer side

[steady halo]

thockson is coping rn

[calm pulsar]

no other foams and shii

[fluid ravine]

stiff

[fluid ravine]

kekekekekek

LIKE THE THOCK COPE

[steady halo]

HAHAHHAHA

leggera and pesante are diff

[tulip rapids]

ty arc sensei

[left cairn]

Im just a little bit unsure because the edges are too round for my taste. The bone 80 got some sharper edges. Might consider that aswell

[tulip rapids]

[steady halo]

and it's frog mini pesante not frog mini leggera pesante

[calm pulsar]

its stiff but gummy mount is way softer than other boards

[fluid ravine]

meh meh meh xD

the frogs shall be ONE

frog biggy

[steady halo]

nonononono

[fluid ravine]

[steady halo]

but pesante looks cool

me with redux🥀

[tulip rapids]

[fluid ravine]

kek

[calm pulsar]

that I can agree with, though the cutouts on the top and bottom of bone80 put me off

[steady halo]

i just love the aesthetic of tofu

sorry chat

[calm pulsar]

I sold 2 of my reduxes for a freebird60 cause of its looks

[tulip rapids]

does polyfill come with the leggera or i gotta buy that venom foam set?

[calm pulsar]

too chonky for me lol

[calm pulsar]

nah polyfill is something you get elsewhere, its a filler for stuffed toys or pillows lol

[tulip rapids]

i see lol im a pleb

[steady halo]

my case only weighs around 1kg

so mine heavier

[tulip rapids]

where did you buy the weight from?

[steady halo]

me strong

[steady halo]

buy from geon web

[fluid ravine]

joshiba bought it for me on taobao before geon released it on his site

it's $18 for one

[steady halo]

i believe it was china special right?

[tulip rapids]

i dont see it there

[fluid ravine]

dunno lol

https://geon.works/products/frog-mini-leggera-copper-weight

he made me bought it against my will LMAO

but i take it

[tulip rapids]

i see im a pleb again and failed this server

[fluid ravine]

no regrets

[tulip rapids]

https://tenor.com/view/jump-gif-18045205

[calm pulsar]

oh its sold out

[steady halo]

i'm disappointed at u

at first u said u want redux

then now leggera

[tulip rapids]

everything is sold out its pissing me the fuck off

[fluid ravine]

the frog must go on

[steady halo]

then now u disappointed all of us about brass weight

[calm pulsar]

@tulip rapids I have seen em on aliexpress at least

[tulip rapids]

i already own a tofu

[fluid ravine]

what are you trying to build

[tulip rapids]

charging triple the brice

[fluid ravine]

like do you have a full list of your future build

[steady halo]

didn't u said u want to build by the end of this year?

[fluid ravine]

on what you want

[steady halo]

u said u want grass green

the green supremacy

[fluid ravine]

gween

[tulip rapids]

yeah but then i had to act fast on the MW JADES AND NOW IM FIRED UPPPPP

[calm pulsar]

gween leggera is super nice imo

[fluid ravine]

i couldve paired it with my gmk botanical

[steady halo]

not looking good on his jade keycaps

[tulip rapids]

i like to have options

[steady halo]

too dark

imo

[fluid ravine]

but i became indecisive and got cream

still happay

[harsh dove]

Damn Brass weight sold out

We exclusive

[tulip rapids]

look at that green

[fluid ravine]

for redux?

[harsh dove]

[fluid ravine]

or

[steady halo]

med

[steady halo]

meh*

[harsh dove]

Nah for frog

[fluid ravine]

wtf are those switches

[harsh dove]

The brass weight you got me

[fluid ravine]

ohhhh

[harsh dove]

ye ye

[fluid ravine]

wait aint it copper?

[harsh dove]

Yeah my bad

whatever

lol

[fluid ravine]

LMAO

[tulip rapids]

how you get different colour brass weights

looks cool

[fluid ravine]

got me questioning my memory

[steady halo]

i bend one of the copper weight

it's so easy to bend

[fluid ravine]

the carbon fiber forge is stock

copper is the one you buy second hand

[calm pulsar]

holyyy I vibe with it so much, it's almost like my guitar

[steady halo]

but ngl

i hate the leggera feet

for some reason

[fluid ravine]

me too

[tulip rapids]

no idea i found it on reddit

[fluid ravine]

i'm using my own bumpon feet

[steady halo]

same

[fluid ravine]

the stock feet are too flat and low

[tulip rapids]

tofu feet is flat no?

[fluid ravine]

too much resonance transferring throughout the desk as well

even on keebmat

[steady halo]

the case is tall

[calm pulsar]

lol looks like some ancient dual rail tech

[fluid ravine]

case is tall feet is flat and long

hate long strip feets

[steady halo]

nah love it

[fluid ravine]

lmao fr

ew

[tulip rapids]

also 3 layer tape mod doesnt really do anything right?

[fluid ravine]

bumpons better

[calm pulsar]

my fwog has em

[steady halo]

it's sticky at least

[tulip rapids]

the leggera is 5 inches tall right?

[fluid ravine]

mm

yeah iirc the typing angle is 5

[steady halo]

i hate 5°

minimum 6° or 7° even better

[tulip rapids]

i want to use my wooting wrist rest on it

[fluid ravine]

i can go from 5-8

[tawdry tree]

alps

[fluid ravine]

i like 7 degree

[steady halo]

i think because i'm used to using OG tofu

[fluid ravine]

sweet spot for meh

[steady halo]

that's why i love 7

[steady halo]

yess sirrr

[harsh dove]

Was looking for my copper weight pic .. found it

[tawdry tree]

case green ain’t even comparable to ur guitar bro. guitar clears >>

[fluid ravine]

ayyy

[calm pulsar]

is there any spec you dont hate on leggera

[fluid ravine]

still gotta find different screw color for the weight

[steady halo]

there is

[tulip rapids]

bro where do i go for polyfill? Build a bear?? 😭

[harsh dove]

Copper screws

lol

[calm pulsar]

true, but the general tint is there at least

[fluid ravine]

shi you know what kind of screw it is?

[harsh dove]

Nah

[fluid ravine]

fug

[harsh dove]

I could look tho

[steady halo]

I don't hate the changeable feet and i don't hate the gummy oring

i hate the fly db

[fluid ravine]

when i started my keyboard hobby i got used to 11 degree at first

[steady halo]

[fluid ravine]

then i went down from there without a problem

[steady halo]

literally my first board was tofu 60

it was the best shit ever

as a first board

[fluid ravine]

for a first keyboard it's amazing tbh

yeah

i wish i knew about it back then

all of my previous keyboard purchases i really regret

but here i am now ig lol

[steady halo]

and until this day

I can't hate the tofu

[calm pulsar]

but it's the journey that leads to where you are now🌹

[steady halo]

I'm even planning to purchase the tou tkl

[fluid ravine]

true

[fluid ravine]

oh yeah that modern look to it is really nice

i fw it

[steady halo]

ikr

[fluid ravine]

i swear i finna say i made more friends in this server than irl but at that point im lying to myself cus i made slightly more friends in volleyball

but ay atleast i made a lot mroe than at school in a way LOL

[harsh dove]

Been awhile since I made a soundtest, so here's my Leggera with Owlabs after months of use, factory lube

[calm pulsar]

poppy

[fluid ravine]

PP?

[harsh dove]

Yeah

[fluid ravine]

hell yeha

[calm pulsar]

bet if you upload it to YT people wont even know its HE

[fluid ravine]

lmao

[harsh dove]

Lol

[tulip rapids]

did you put foam in your case?

im building my first venom frog leggera

[harsh dove]

Yeah just case foam

No plate foam

[tulip rapids]

did you use the venom foam or foam from somewhere else?

[little glen]

you should add your sound tests to the sound test thread in #🪛│modding_faq

[harsh dove]

Venom foam

[little glen]

any hobby store should have it

yk where people to to buy stuff to do crafts etc

[tulip rapids]

walmart

[calm pulsar]

technically it would be harder to achieve this on a wooting cause you cant mount it in a leggera G version

[tulip rapids]

yeah i know some art stores though ty wizard

[little glen]

not what i was saying

[calm pulsar]

yeah but I mean if you pin this in the channel people might expect that on their 60he

[tulip rapids]

im coming from wooting pc plate and the boys here are recommending me alu,fr4 and cf plate

gotta decide what plate to get. Im excited for this venom build though

[little glen]

idk if you clearly state what it is i dont see the problem tbh

[calm pulsar]

also true

[fluid ravine]

Here's mine

[little glen]

hell nah bro got the gaming sleeve 😭

how is he gonna game in the summer

[tulip rapids]

what plates did you guys end up choosing for your venoms?

[fluid ravine]

lmao i was playing val earlier

[fluid ravine]

i got ac dw xD

[fluid ravine]

alu

i have fr4 as well

[little glen]

i have an alu and an fr4

i should really buy an alu plate for my 80he

i feel like it would go rlly well with the rawhuks

or maybe fr4

not sure

[fluid ravine]

Frog Mini Leggera G Cream
Venom 60HE 7U
GMK Black Snail
Alu Plate
Rawhukies (Raw+Duhuk) & Duhuk Spacebar
YIKB Stabs + Geon Spacers
40a Oring

@tulip rapids

[little glen]

rawhuks

[fluid ravine]

simple as it gets

[tulip rapids]

i appreciate all your guys help

[calm pulsar]

fancy with separate switch for spacebar

[fluid ravine]

lul

need that hard bottom out

not super satisified with it but ill take it

alphas should like cover up the top out of the duhuk reverbs

intrusive thought

i snip off the little legs on duhuk stem

bad idea yes

useless as well lmao

[tulip rapids]

so you didnt put foam in the case

[fluid ravine]

no foam

yup

[harsh dove]

Alright

[little glen]

do yall know if the hypekeyboards guy has all the 80he files

[harsh dove]

Or PP

[little glen]

or do i need to add the ISO file manually

[fluid ravine]

polyfill @tulip rapids

[tulip rapids]

is the f4 plate that stiff?

[harsh dove]

Solid

[fluid ravine]

actually just for your sake ima add polyfill rn

[tulip rapids]

the video disappear DX

[fluid ravine]

yeah ik

i deleted

[harsh dove]

Decided to clean my keeb rn

[tulip rapids]

okei thockson sensei

[fluid ravine]

cus preamps on the audio interface im using vs the one i was using before is different

so ima get you a fresh recording

[tulip rapids]

Whats pp a custom plate you did?

[harsh dove]

Uh I got mine off AliExpress I think

[tulip rapids]

thank you

you a real one

[fluid ravine]

polypropylene

[harsh dove]

Polypropylene

[fluid ravine]

it's a material

[harsh dove]

Yeah

[tulip rapids]

oh i see

[fluid ravine]

it's one of the flexiest plate material

[tulip rapids]

didnt know that

[harsh dove]

Yeah it’s super soft

[fluid ravine]

it's a soft plate, like pom and pc, but has that bit of Pop characteristic in its sound signature

[little glen]

i think i will need to send the hypekeyboards guy an email about this whole thing cause the configurator doesnt work for 80he yet

[fluid ravine]

like pom but has a bit more

[tulip rapids]

The 40a Orings come with the leggera or gotta buy it on the side?

[fluid ravine]

it comes with it

[tropic urchin]

@tulip rapids hypekeyboard

[fluid ravine]

i have a 30a and a 50a as well

[tropic urchin]

He’s also Canadian so he will treat you well

[tulip rapids]

what size do you guys recommend for the orings

[tropic urchin]

Cool guy

[fluid ravine]

if youre getting graveshift orings then m size

bakeneko orings get 60%

[harsh dove]

#1377337057550008473 message

[little glen]

very good now dig up all the rest too

[fluid ravine]

should add mine frfr

jk

alr got polyfill in

oh wow it sounds full

[harsh dove]

[tulip rapids]

i honestly have no idea what o rings to get

[little glen]

https://www.twitch.tv/camofflife/clip/YummyStrangeLeopardKAPOW-q97PUb12krGd6W3_ post this link there too maybe

[harsh dove]

Oh god

[calm pulsar]

[harsh dove]

My hands look like Dinosaur feet

[little glen]

just had to bring this back up, great clip

[tulip rapids]

ayo crash out

love the video xD

[austere creek]

what AI generated thumbnail is that

jesus

[harsh dove]

Definitely AI

[tropic urchin]

Oh yes you mean

[fluid ravine]

lmao i remember making fun about it

[calm pulsar]

I remember frog also looking funny

[fluid ravine]

@tulip rapids polyfill

[calm pulsar]

its back was so big because of the lens

[tropic urchin]

I remember I remember

[harsh dove]

Yeah it looked taller from the angle

[fluid ravine]

@tulip rapids all i can say, with polyfill it sounds a bit more fuller, or in other words without it, the board sounds a bit brighter

especially on the bottom out

typing feel is a bit more cushioned since the polyfill is filling up the empty space and is also condensed so when pressure is being applied it pushes right back

still soft typing feel eitherway

[tropic urchin]

@tulip rapids you will learn benom sound and booting is not the same

[fluid ravine]

oh yeah especially the standoffs

how they're applied

they make a difference in how the board sounds

[tropic urchin]

Chat do I swap to owlabs while waiting for raptors

[fluid ravine]

i remember talking to dave about it, iirc with the standoffs being soldered onto the pcb, we get a more fuller and maybe brighter sound out of it

[fluid ravine]

what are you using right now

[tropic urchin]

No comment

[calm pulsar]

[fluid ravine]

lemme guesss

flux

[tropic urchin]

https://tenor.com/view/im-in-danger-gif-21942122

[harsh dove]

He using Steelseries Omni points

[fluid ravine]

yeah buddy you're cooked

if i had those i would throw the whole board at the wall

[calm pulsar]

yeah that's a perma ban

[tropic urchin]

Did you buy that too on my credit card smh

[fluid ravine]

LMAO

[little glen]

if i get a custom plate for 80he

should it be fr4 or alu

fr4 is cheaper

[fluid ravine]

what profile you going for

as much as i like the resonance coming out of alu i feel like it can be finicky sometimes

with certain boards

or builds

[tropic urchin]

Both for me were similar (but alu had some metal ping) but I had keyboard fun store fr4 and Toronto keyboard man alu

Alu works best for benom

[calm pulsar]

depending on mounting alu can be too much for HE I feel like

[tropic urchin]

Custom alu might be better

[fluid ravine]

arghhhh i want a cf and pp plate so bad now

[fluid ravine]

hmm yeha

[calm pulsar]

but I loved alu in my forg

[fluid ravine]

especially like plate to case contact type of contact

or pcb to case

tray mount, top mount

prob worst mounts for alu
