idk why on 80HE alu and FR4 sounds almost identical, but on venom its radically different sounding to me

#

maybe boronto keyboardman one isnt good, but its just so weird

maybe its the silicone gasket telling me to get rekt idk

hi, has anyone removed the sandwhich pad and gasket mount from their wooting80?

harsh dove
upbeat sorrel
#

ahh ok ok ty ty

#

thought you would be able to, doing a case swap to a Holy80 so I thought you'd be able to get away with it

harsh dove
#

Yeah, its required for the board to function properly. They sell foam versions on Aliexpress, but never used them myself, so not sure how well they work

upbeat sorrel
#

cool, thanks for the info!

little glen

Any other case or situation you have to use it pretty much

upbeat sorrel

gotcha, so am I good to remove the silcone pad then?

oh sander is sending me his sparks to try out, so i guess i don't have to order any

@tawdry tree wait i actually like the Astros in that ST 👀

#

surely raptors will sound like that too

tawdry tree

Those are the AstroAims

not Links

but sound profile is similar nonetheless

glacial wind
#

according to swagkey this is what changed. ferrule is iron I'm fairly sure lol
25.07.03 Renewal Improvements
• Increased pitch by using PC material
• Shortened ferrule length and applied R value to tip to resolve contact with the board in certain environments
• Changed hinge shape to minimize clearance between ferrule core and housing
• Minimized clearance between ferrule and ferrule core
• Increased metal precision to improve cross-sectional quality

anybody care to explain to me about the need for ventilation holes at the bottom of a switch? just curious, because ive seen closed bottom switches with and without

glacial wind
#

so the holes help ventilation, although whether they do anything who knows

young lantern
#

gotcha! thanks for explaining. i guess it makes sense if you think about it. i wonder if someone in the future would do a deep dive into it 🤔

AstroAim goes hard

tawdry tree
#

Outemu/Yiqian is slept on icl

#

more than decent sound and good stability

#

and they actually do unique stuff

#

like silent, clicky and tactile

glacial wind
#

it's probably a lot of side effect from their early switches being awful magnet ranges that had issues with bunch of boards

#

so people don't really look at their stuff as much now

tawdry tree
#

yeah, their earlier switches had smaller magnets so they didn’t work but now even those work fine

#

with the 80HE at least

not wrong

why is your bot censoring sound test btw

reminds me i need to check if dhl returned the package yet lol

#

i'm still annoyed the guy invented some rules that you can't import 2 keyboards at once

#

that has to be a mistake

calm pulsar
sacred elm
glacial wind
#

right? I'm almost certain the dhl guy just doesn't know how to classify computer gear properly, threw them in as radio equipment and said 'sorry you can't import 2'

then they offered to split the shipment for me and return one keyboard but charge me $100 lol

how louds raptor v2 compare to raw, jade pro, or owlab ti?

glacial wind

thank you sir

calm pulsar

I require rappers v2 at once

tropic urchin
calm pulsar
tidal frigate
#

I think dhl issue is 100% tied to one sorting centre

glacial wind
#

i think the jade pro thing is more that almost every switch falls in the realm of 'jade pro' when it comes to typical closed bottom 3.4-3.5mm switches lol

kind helm
#

thats why i asked about loudness, tofu v2 is a bit muted compare to my salv or leggera

#

i remember raptor v2 is on the deeper sounding side, so may work well with tofu v2 on alu plate

iirc, Geon said he might use some coating for the rgb ver.

nah it just got on the deskmat not on the keeb

coating gud, maybe not for actually spilling water but just in general less likely to damage the pcb

nothing can beats the warranty of wooting imo

tawdry tree
#

I’m from the EU

#

mandatory 2-year warranty

#

updating older products is something only woot does though

#

really old products*

untold wigeon

untold wigeon
#

i will sell my benom for 60he v2

#

can't wait to be back with wooting as my travel board

#

6 months of benom is enough for me (praying too much so it won't die)

tawdry tree
untold wigeon
#

don't worry

#

and i have a lot of gh60 case...

#

so i might buy the module only

#

and tikken

#

but all depends on the stock case price tho

#

if it's <$240 i might buy prebuilt

#

but i will lose the 7uSwitchyCry

untold wigeon
tawdry tree
#

ye

untold wigeon
#

huh

#

but no warranty

tawdry tree
#

prob not

#

it’ll be 7u too tho

untold wigeon
#

I don't want to pay multiple import tax if the pcb die

#

i have to buy again = extra shipping and extra tax

tawdry tree
#

maybe you’re too charged

#

you kill the pcbs when u touch them

maybe 60he v2 as well but we’ll see

a little more with shipping I think

eh no

#

a little less

#

but still

huh or should i just keep venom for 7u (?)

#

idk

#

i'm dead to think about it

tawdry tree

get both

#

keep venom

untold wigeon

and buy 60he v2

what if venom becomes $100 but have warranty havo

#

but still

#

no guarantee for long updates like wooting

tawdry tree
#

venom not having warranty is idiotic

untold wigeon
tawdry tree
#

there is no way that it doesn’t hurt sales more than they save money

untold wigeon
#

the worst thing to do

#

ngl geon is being geon

#

they don't have warranty

#

on any of their stuff

#

iirc

tawdry tree
#

yep I think so too

untold wigeon

and people are glazing about the performance, layout, case compatibility and etc.
but us as a wooting user can glaze about warranty

it's always been 8k, i think he's thinking about eyejoker testing via multi key input specifically with his test conditions too

Hey, has anyone compared the haimu dove he to the mathew silent and the raeds he switches yet ?

glacial wind
#

Dove and mathew seem to be the sameish switch from best anyone can tell

#

could be that mathew got access to early version of them

valid sun
#

Alright

#

Even though they're structurally different, which one would be more silent ( in a stock wooting two he for example ) ?

#

In your opinion

sacred elm
glacial wind
#

they don't feel anything like normal switches

#

some people love them, some don't

valid sun
#

I see...
Why wouldn't they be used for normal usage though, do they feel too much "squishy" or something like that ?

glacial wind
#

they're based off ec rubber dome style switches, not exactly the most accurate with the silencing and tactile nature

#

silent switches already are less accurate than regular switches due to dampening

#

i wouldn't use silent + tactile switches for typical gaming usage

valid sun
#

Ok, thanks.
I don't mainly use mine for gaming though so that should be ok.

#

The raeds seems sold out everywhere though so I guess I shall wait or go for another switch.

glacial wind
#

people have honestly liked the tecsee more than the raeds

#

i'd get those instead

#

they also come in silent option

valid sun
#

I'll look for those too thanks

sacred elm

TTC is releasing silent switches in October, just saying

#

Maybe worth waiting

Oh I won't buy anything yet

So, can wait.

@glacial wind What's the name of the tecsee switch in question ?

Do you care about split space

If the answer to that question is no, then you will be fine buying a 60he+ today

@molten wedge Gateron will be releasing a tactile magnetic switch pretty soon and that’ll be compatible with the venom as well.

#

It’ll be around the same price as the Panda HEs, probably.

Hey guys and gals
I got a question regarding the transition from Mechanical to Analog.

Today I bought a Two HE. I am currently on a Ducky with Cherry MX Blue Switches. I like the aggressive feedback it provides. Especially while typing. I think I used to feel like linear switches were really unpleasant for me.
I've just recently learned about Analog being a thing and since I just broke my Keyboard (water) I wanted to try Analog since the benefits seem to be tremendous.

Any advice for a smooth transition? Tips on mindset, hardware modding, software settings would be appreciated. I decided against buying other switches before the board even arrives but am open to suggestions, I also heard rings might make the feel more like what I'm accustomed to? Before my MX Blues I had Razer Greens and MX Browns before those.
Since I mainly game with over-ear headphones the sound isn't as vital to me but the feeling is important.

In general I am curious how y'all adapted to linear switches, analog in particular.

#

I wonder if they’re gonna have leafs of a non-magnetic material

#

or they just reuse copper

tawdry tree
#

I don’t think many people use tactile for gaming, so it’s not that big of a difference for them.

little glen
#

you might just love it tbh, i swapped from clicky to linear analog ages ago and loved it almost right away

#

there will always be an adjustment period but eventually you will just know whether you pressed a key etc

#

you could also spring swap for stronger springs if you would like that

trail bane
tawdry tree

#

Woot came stock with a steel plate, so no

#

but the leaf is as close to the magnet as the spring is

#

so I’d be kinda worried about that

trail bane
#

Oh ic

I can just imagine the faces of the 0.001 mm fans

#

@glacial wind are the Jade pros from gateron comparable to the Raptor V2 HE?

glacial wind
#

Sure. But so are every other closed bottom 3.4-3.5mm switch

#

They’re comparable in sound, although jade pro been outclassed in tolerances by the newer switches

#

Jade pro is just a very standard typical closed bottom he switch sound so almost half the switches out there sound similar to average person

#

The difference between the Raptor and the jade pros

#

specifically

Any updates on Tikken?

YEAH

You just said difference

LMAO

#

HJoly shit

glacial wind
#

Jade pros are not at all comparable then if you mean not sound

#

At least not by enthusiast he wobble peeking standards

paper bloom
#

O i c

#

Ok

glacial wind
#

They’re perfectly fine switches but beaten in wobble by the owlab gen and now even more by the raptor gen

glacial wind

No updates beyond that though for the public anyway

Many many updates for the private wooting employees

tropic urchin
# paper bloom Like stem wobble

For your reference when I switched to TTC POM, they outclassed the Jade Pros in every way. Raptor V2s now are outperforming the TTC POM for top wobble and are looking like the best bottom wobble on any cherry stem switch rn

stray tiger
tropic urchin
#

If you’re curious

stray tiger
glacial wind
#

They’re physically incredibly impressive wobble wise

#

Wobble difference is noticable enough even for just visual look

tropic urchin
#

They’re the first real upgrades I’ve seen

#

For a non boxstem to blow the POM out of the water is a rare sight for stability

#

And first new switch with 45g long spring SwitchyHeart

stray tiger
#

Im not a wobble maxxer so that's not a factor for me personally but I love that things are improving.

glacial wind
#

Well top wobble isn’t as crazy because top wobble isn’t as tricky to do, but the bottom wobble is impressive that it’s at least physically as stable as a ttc box stem switch while having mx stem

tropic urchin

Glad im coping the raptors then nonthless

I think owlab and tikkens sound better but that’s just sound preference since all sound clean

Sander is sending me his spare sparks too, so I’ll be able to check them out soon at least once Japanese mountain public holiday is over lol

#

it’s not all marketing once again

glacial wind
#

I’ve been putting off ordering them to see if a rep could send me them because they’re so absurdly expensive even if wooting is paying for it

#

But gateron been very hit or miss with communication so it’s been slow

tawdry tree
#

every switch manu is 😭

#

Funny enough suddenly reps reply way faster after the first switch content piece I made for wooting hit 10k views

Ttc have always been nice though. they replied right away even before my image went viral

Yo guys in terms of feeling and sound how much can a different plate material change those two things? Like stock wooting 60 HE+ Comes with the PC plate but how much is there a difference to lets say an aluminum plate?

Will there be a noticeable difference in terms of sound feel
