[kind helm]

rawr

[glacial wind]

did you like the c1 light press? I can't decide if i should swap them off the influencer build or not

[polar girder]

Yeah I’d probably feel it hour one NGL

TF IS C1

[glacial wind]

the mmd c1

i have a few 80he premodded for influencers who need them, one of them is full c1s since i got extras when i ordered since it was so cheap

[kind helm]

id describe it as a slightly cheaper alternative to owlab with deeper sound and lighter spring.

wait is it lighter? does owlab has a 30 something g spring weight version?

[glacial wind]

no

owlab doesn't go that low

[kind helm]

yea alright thanks :3

[polar girder]

What’s most solid switch?

[glacial wind]

what do you mean by solid?

[polar girder]

Like just no wobble, no airyness, just up down, stem hit bottom, no weird noises or feeling

Sound and feel just solid

[tawdry tree]

Fluxies

[glacial wind]

hrm i don't think they exist yet

[tawdry tree]

you’re just using them in specific ways bro 😭

[glacial wind]

all of them have some sort of movement

specific movement aligner. please comprehend, and stop trying to bait

[tawdry tree]

I don’t even know what that means tbh, with them having almost no wobble

how specific can specific usage get like that?

[glacial wind]

he means beyond pom level I'd assume

[tawdry tree]

specific movement*

[glacial wind]

i mean that there seems to be a specific usage of how someone presses keys that triggers it more

as in do they push in hard, slam it down, soft etc

because if it was pure usage then some of us like myself and ponz who put heavy usage into it should have seen it by now, especially ponz who has had them in from earlier than most in here and still has them in

[tawdry tree]

so everyone here except faker and you press their raptor V2s in a specific way?

and ponz yeah*

[glacial wind]

and ponz? and when you say everyone here you mean what like 3-4 people

the regulars here who tried raptors are literally those 3-4 people lol

which is why like i said to varedis seems about 50/50

then you can check the geon reviews

[tawdry tree]

seems like a lot to me for specific usage no?

[glacial wind]

out of 100 reviews i went to the lowest to try find the bad reviews

and found 1-2 that mentioned it

[glacial wind]

not really?

if you want to go purely off usage then why hasn't ponz nor me seen it with heavy usage

[tawdry tree]

you know I didn’t even use mine when noticing the crunchiness and sending that recording right? just plucked a couple out of the bag and pressed em in hand

[robust siren]

i mean its alright, probably doesnt help im swapping back to even lighter raws before i get fluxes lol

[glacial wind]

so clearly there's another factor

[glacial wind]

what does that have anything to do with it? If we're going to start counting people who don't report it as potential reports then we can also count people who don't report it as not having the issue

that's a non factor

[tawdry tree]

I don’t see it, randomness explains it to me considering I hadn’t used them and the spring being as loose as it is (which makes it repeatable as well).

[glacial wind]

the bottom line is if it's purely usage then everyone with heavy usage should trigger it

except that's not what we're seeing

[tawdry tree]

not if it’s random bro, that’s what I’m saying

[glacial wind]

no one is saying it's random completely

who are you even arguing with on that point

[tawdry tree]

the spring has too much room and can move all over the place

[glacial wind]

i'm saying specific usage movements seem to trigger it more and if you don't use it that way it doesn't seem to trigger

nothing about random

[kind helm]

my goat, what board you using for pp + mmd c1?

me really like the combo with leggera

[tawdry tree]

you know the people who encountered it here, press their switches in specific ways, how? 😭

[tawdry tree]

HM66, tray mounted in stock wooting lol

[glacial wind]

because something extra has to be happening to cause it to not happen in other heavy usage

[tawdry tree]

foamed up too

[glacial wind]

otherwise why are they so easily able to repeat it while others with heavy usage can't get it to happen

[kind helm]

plastic board for extra THOCK

[glacial wind]

i don't understand how this is a hard process of logic to follow

[tawdry tree]

that’s a fair point

[tropic urchin]

Please add a trigger warning

I’m triggered

[tawdry tree]

still though, I had like 4 with crunch right out of the bag

without any usage at all

[robust siren]

anyways sound comparison 2 lefts raws right are the c1s (no trigger warning )

[glacial wind]

no idea what to tell you. I tested all 110 of mine after the first crunching was reported and could never get any to crunch

[tropic urchin]

Try putting them closer together since left/right side will sound different

[glacial wind]

then i tested them all a week later again because i thought maybe long term use might have caused some to crunch but nothing

[tawdry tree]

open one and push the spring to the side, it might just be too faint to notice

it can be difficult to notice on keys you don’t hold down for sure

[glacial wind]

i even tested the ones in my own board and did a full 360 hard press on them

couldn't get any crunching

[polar girder]

Like what’s the Sony lens of HE switches?

But sounds like we’re not there yet

[fringe quarry]

whats the what

[tawdry tree]

Fluxies before the price drop

[polar girder]

Crescent wrench why

[glacial wind]

probably doesn't exist right now if you want something even more stable overall than hand lubed poms

[polar girder]

Ok yeah that’s kinda what I was thinking. Thank you

[glacial wind]

flux are similar stability with better feel though, but same amount of wobble honestly

just that you don't feel it because it has that round/octagon stem

[tawdry tree]

had to hold em down properly so they don’t run off

[polar girder]

Fair

[glacial wind]

there are some switches that are more stable in either top or bottom but not both

or they have downsides

like the polar pro+ being rock solid bottom out, but worse top and sound bad

[polar girder]

Ah

RIP

[tawdry tree]

split stems make wobble a preference in theory, so if you like wobble (and don’t care foe sound) you could go with a split stem one.

[glacial wind]

i do think flux deep clack will be popular IF they drop the price to a more normal level

[sacred elm]

Fluxes are best of both worlds tbh

[glacial wind]

if the price goes back up then flux are a bit of a tough one for normies to ever swallow when you're paying the price of your wooting keyboard just for switches

[sacred elm]

If Ali prices stay the same then it's fine. We can just recommend getting them from Ali

Well, of course if they're not fake 😆

[glacial wind]

that's what makes me a bit nervous, in that it's just one shop

if it was more than 1 shop I think i'd feel more like "okay this isn't just a one off kind of thing"

[tawdry tree]

there’s a cheaper one on TB, but not on Ali yet

but it’s pretty common for TB to be first so I’m not surprised

[polar girder]

So IF I buy an fr4 plate to try out the keysnaps in frog mini then I might pick up DCF to try. But otherwise probably chilling

[robust siren]

wooting is now back to fuill raws

and i can immidately feel the difference between the 2 switch weights

i might be cooked when i get the fluxes

[polar girder]

What’s the weight diff

[robust siren]

like

3 grams

between raws and c1

[tropic urchin]

All you need is time grasshoppa

Or new fingers

[glacial wind]

should save money though

new sony camera is coming soon

[robust siren]

yeah this

bro init force on the fluxes is gonna be same almost the same bottom out force of c1s

[robust siren]

backspace is no longer thocky

[sacred elm]

They might release compatible spring packs in the future.

If you email them they'll release springs faster

[robust siren]

itd be the first switch id ever take apart

[sacred elm]

https://tenor.com/view/smart-think-meme-intelligence-common-sense-gif-8946867

I’ll wuque wuque right away

[sacred elm]

[robust siren]

shafie edging the ban button:

[sacred elm]

I can't sorry

[robust siren]

yeah i def feel the lube (or lack there of) on my raws now

but i dont wanna take apart switches

https://tenor.com/view/judgement-cat-cat-angry-cat-cat-face-cat-forehead-gif-4731341898773190051

nor do i have anything to take them apart with

[sacred elm]

You'll get used to 50g dw

[robust siren]

what the laziest way to apply lube without taking them apart

i think the solution is drowning it in lube

[sacred elm]

🤨

[sacred elm]

NOO

[tawdry tree]

with walled stems you can’t

[robust siren]

talking about raws, not the fluxes

[tawdry tree]

oh

then press them and brush the inside

[marsh saffron]

What are these called, wonder if they'd be nice to help my fingers

[tawdry tree]

or with a syringe but it might be too much

[tawdry tree]

just searched finger trainer

[marsh saffron]

I speedran arthritis too fast now I've got old man hands

[glacial wind]

soak the entire switch in gpl oil for 1 month and see if it absorbs the oil into the actual plastic

[tawdry tree]

actually, for Raw HEs specifically, I wouldn’t recommend this as they already stick when pressing them initially due to lube.

[tawdry tree]

Hejin classic

[tropic urchin]

Goat shit if you get them to release 45g spring packs

Pls 🙏🏻

[robust siren]

guys i dont think my pcb is straight anymore 💀

[tawdry tree]

it’s more likely u bent your plate considering what u did to it lmao

[robust siren]

oh no it was just the pcb on its own, maybe screw in stabs can effect it? idk anyways it wobbles when i tap one corner

oh wait im dumb

“It looks like I finally got my 45g long spring Mr Stark”

@sacred elm if we get 45g short spring flux it’s safe to say I’m not upgrading unless we get a real switch with raptor top stability

[chilly mural]

keep on dreaming

maybe it'll become a reality

guys how can i fix wobbly feeling

on my wooting

has gateron jade pro

[robust siren]

step 1: throw gaterons in the trash

[hollow obsidian]

lol

whats ur recs

[robust siren]

well it depends

do you care more about top or bottom wobble

and does sound + price matter

[hollow obsidian]

i want something more stably feeling, creamy sound vibes and can be flexible on price

[sacred elm]

https://aliexpress.com/item/1005009888870031.html

[robust siren]

fluxes

[robust siren]

theres these and fluxes that shafie linked
though i dont think youre getting a "creamy" sound from any HE switch

[hollow obsidian]

are these that much better than gateron jade pros?

[sacred elm]

Fluxes yes

[hollow obsidian]

what is fluxes? like a brand?

[sacred elm]

I linked it above

[robust siren]

its a switch name

[hollow obsidian]

okay tha k u

[tropic urchin]

They were good like a year ago when we only had RAWs but there’s been like 10 new switches that came out that’s miles better currently

If you don’t wanna spend too much owlab/raptor V2s are good (if you don’t get spring crunch RNG), if your budget allows $1 per switch then the pink WS Flux Shafie linked are great options

There’s also sound tests in the pins as well for most switches mentioned @hollow obsidian

@glacial wind what happened to the deep clack fluxies pin

[polar girder]

Raptor v2 still recommended?

Yeah Jade pro and raw are fine if you have them

But I wouldn’t buy them new in q3 2025

[peak breach]

Yeah, they sound decent top tier wobble and they are really cheap

[fluid ravine]

Time to get HMX HE switches then

[kind helm]

personally fuck no

[polar girder]

Ikr

[kind helm]

me, aligner, varedis, 3 people just on top of my head, have had spring crunch issue. sample size not that big but i think its a gamble.

[upbeat cloak]

[polar girder]

TTC POM springs work on any other switches?

[polar girder]

This would make me throw my keyboard against the wall

https://tenor.com/view/my-disappointment-is-immeasurable-and-gif-20080022

[upbeat cloak]

😭

is there an owlab ti he sound test

[peak breach]

Pretty sure the same amount of people if not more haven’t experienced any issues with them

[sacred elm]

You forgot the word

Yet

[robust siren]

owlab crunch he

[unborn cargo]

Hey, i decided to mod my wooting after a long time of having it. can anyone tell me whats the best upgrades? like the most difference making and stuff that i should get? i tried looking it up but nothing specific helped

[reef oar]

switches

case

[tropic urchin]

Could be divinikey shipments are scuffed

But aligner wouldn’t fit into that theory

[sacred elm]

Case, switches, plate, keycaps

Switches will make the biggest difference

[tropic urchin]

Raptors mainly

[unborn cargo]

so aluminium case is ok? and switches do i check which ones i like? plate idk how it works but keycaps ill check also what i like. i just dont know how the others work

[tropic urchin]

I won’t lie raptors have me jaded on new switches 🥀

[tropic urchin]

1). Yes, 2). #🪛│modding_faq message, 3). Depends on which Wooting you have, but Wooting has deconstruction videos for modding so it shouldn’t be too bad

[sacred elm]

Do you have 60HE? There are many compatible cases: Optimum, Alumaze, Tofu60, Frog Leggera and many others

You need Wooting compatible hall effect switches, you can check them here https://link.wooting.io/soundtests

[unborn cargo]

i got the 60he 2 years ago. i got it with 12 or 20 L45 switches.

[unborn cargo]

ty very much man

[tropic urchin]

The general idea is you want to strip the keyboard down to the PCB and then you layer the switch plate over w/e PCB foam you have and then rescrew it in

[unborn cargo]

oh ok

[tropic urchin]

It’s not too bad of a process once you see it once or twice

[unborn cargo]

yea, i already did all the stripping and testing things when i got the keyboard 2 years ago

[sacred elm]

What's your budget btw? How much can you pay for switches?

[unborn cargo]

but from where do i buy all of the things?

[unborn cargo]

ummmm. i wanna mod the whole keyboard idm putting like 200 USD if its ok. idk how much it all can cost

[upbeat cloak]

what site sells switches cheapest

gonna get some of them owlab ti he

[sacred elm]

Hmm, then maybe get Wuque Flux https://aliexpress.com/item/1005009888870031.html , they're nice.

Do you like Optimum case ? If so that's a solid option too, with friction fit pad, the sound will be softer and more consistent across the board.

[tropic urchin]

Aliexpress or whatever keyboard vendor is for your region probably

[upbeat cloak]

sure lol

always heard bad stuff about aliexpress but if it works it works

[unborn cargo]

ali express is nice xD but can i get like actual good aluminium case there or should i check other sites?

[sacred elm]

Wooting

[tropic urchin]

If you don’t know where to look it can look sketchy, but I’ve had decent experiences. Just don’t buy clothes and expect them to look like the picture

[unborn cargo]

i mean it might be nice for keycaps and stuff like that but yk im talking about the quality too

[tropic urchin]

Keyboard stuff it’s been pretty good

[unborn cargo]

i gotta check the delivery time tho i just hope its not 2 months

[sacred elm]

Getting switches from AliExpress is fine.

[tropic urchin]

It really just depends on the case you want imo. If you want GT60 for example you’d get it from KBDfans or their Aliexpress store. If you want tray mount leggera you’d go to geonworks etc

[upbeat cloak]

damn the prices for only 10 switches is nuts

😭

[unborn cargo]

oh they got ali express store in kbdfans?

[tropic urchin]

Yeah

[unborn cargo]

ahhh imma check that out

[tropic urchin]

Other way around but yeah

[upbeat cloak]

was gonna get some just to test and the price is crazy high on the 10pc compared to other quantities

[tropic urchin]

Some might be on the same site/platform Aci, but you might have to use a few different stores to get everything you want

[unborn cargo]

ok ill do some more research tysm for the help btw

[tropic urchin]

Also I’d check out KBDfans’ other stuff for keycaps too

Get an idea for what you want (material/colors etc)

Might take some time so don’t sweat it if it takes a few weeks to get your build together

[unborn cargo]

yea i checked kbdfans but idk if its me i just dont think they have alot of options for like the cable or too many cases

[tropic urchin]

Cable not really

They’re more cases/keycaps or different keyboards

[upbeat cloak]

10pc for 14 on ali while its 10pc for 4.80 on unikeys

[unborn cargo]

yea i just wanted also that cable which looks much better and organized

[upbeat cloak]

[tropic urchin]

Yeah def go unikeys then

i cant wait for wooting knobs

how will the big knob mount onto the keyboard?

[upbeat cloak]

im so jealous

[tropic urchin]

I think it’s supposed to take up 4 switch spaces?

[sacred elm]

Instead of 4 switches

Big knob is only compatible with 80HE and 2HE

[upbeat cloak]

i have 2he, tryna think of where id fit it

guess i could take out home/end/pgup/pgdn

Nah KBDfans is goated

@tawdry tree salt lake build inc

[unborn cargo]

hey if i buy the tofu60 redux case, what does the brass weight,filler foam and do the jade switch good? like what do the first 2 things do

[polar girder]

lol should I try?

[tropic urchin]

Brass weight makes it heavier and sound less hollow, filler foam looks to be extra foam you can use and Jade switches don’t bother with

[tropic urchin]

If yours doesn’t crunch it’s good yeah

[polar girder]

I meant TTC Pom
Spring in Raptor v2

Wouldn’t that do away with the crunch?

[tropic urchin]

Oh you mean that

[sacred elm]

No

[tropic urchin]

I tried and it still kinda happens

[unborn cargo]

what makes the sound better out of them? i like it less of a high pitch if yk what i mean

[tropic urchin]

I’d get both tbh

The foam doesn’t look to be terribly expensive

Most people that get the tofu get the weight iirc

[unborn cargo]

its 1.50 but the weight is 25$

so the foam ill get 100% but is the weight brass worth 25$

[sacred elm]

Filler foam is if you're broke and can't get brass weight. If you're getting brass weight then you don't need filler foam

[unborn cargo]

but does it make the sound alot better like is it worth the 25$?

[tropic urchin]

@polar girder the raptors have really great top stability if you care about it, the only issue is if yours will crunch or not since it seems to be a divided issue

They were great until they crunched

[tropic urchin]

I’d assume so, the one thing you don’t want is a hollow sound

[sacred elm]

You can get whatever, just don't buy Jades. Get Wuque Flux or something else instead.

[unborn cargo]

i just hope it does make a noticable difference. i cant find any sound test videos on yt

[polar girder]

Yeah I don’t like that

I’m happy now. Just curious

Anyone try keysnaps in a frog mini yet?

[tropic urchin]

From what I’ve seen of others asking about it, the people who have one generally recommend the weight or it’ll sound like ass

If you’re on the fence just pick a different case or don’t, but it’ll be hollow/empty sounding

[sacred elm]

If you're getting Tofu60 Redux, get friction fit pad from Wooting and replace your sandwich foam with it.

[tropic urchin]

Could also do that

[unborn cargo]

alr ill get it 🙂

[polar girder]

Yeah fk it. Go all out

Tofu with brass and a friction fit pad

[tropic urchin]

#🔧│keyboard_modding message

[polar girder]

That’s pretty lux

[tropic urchin]

Try what Shafie said too

See which fits better for your budget

[polar girder]

Best case redux build

[unborn cargo]

whats friction fit pad

[polar girder]

https://wooting.io/product/friction-fit-pad?Title=Default+Title

Use that instead of tray mount

[unborn cargo]

wait so do i get the redux + weight brass + friction fit pad?

[polar girder]

You don’t have to. You could just buy the redux and it will work.

But that combo of the three would be nice.

It’s like bare bones vs Cadillac version

[unborn cargo]

i want the sound to feel premium and basically look at my keyboard and say wow

so if i get 3 will i be closer to that? 🥺

[polar girder]

Yeah I’d get all three then if you like the aesthetic of redux

[unborn cargo]

aiiightt

[thorn zealot]

yes those 3 will be far better than default redux

[unborn cargo]

ty

what does the fit friction do btw? cause i dont understand shi

[sacred elm]

If you won't replace your current switches, prob no. You really need to swap stock Lekkers with something else.

[polar girder]

Watch the video on the page I sent

[sacred elm]

They're disgusto

[polar girder]

lol ignorance is bliss tho

Some people love lekkers

[tropic urchin]

They also haven’t tried any other switches prob, but you’re right ignorance is bliss

[unborn cargo]

which ones would you recommend from the wooting store? idk if i wanna get the ones from ali express since they got 1 sold orders..

i got my wooting 2 years ago with the normal l60 lekkers and a pack of 12 L45

the V1 tho i think

[thorn zealot]

changes how the pcb and stuff mounts to the case, makes it sound more even and more full imo than the default (tray mount)

[sacred elm]

Yes, because they got listed few days ago.

[unborn cargo]

ooo k sounds good then

[unborn cargo]

oh alrr

[polar girder]

KOM POM Linear if you want Wooting website one

[unborn cargo]

should i add any with the redux case?

[polar girder]

Do you have to lube those ones too?

[unborn cargo]

umm

i havent lubed my switches in like a year

[sacred elm]

Yes, they have the same factory lube (none)

[unborn cargo]

oh

[polar girder]

Ah

Yeah KOM POM have to be hand lubed

Get RAW if you want Wooting site switch and don’t want to lube

But there’s better options

[polar girder]

I dunno about those plates and compatibility with Wooting

Fr4 plates are cool tho but idk

[sacred elm]

You can yeah, both options are good. 60HE stock steel plate is very loud and metallic sounding

[unborn cargo]

oh.... the brass weight is sold out in kbdfans... nice

[polar girder]

You have module or stock 60HE?

[unborn cargo]

i bought the normal stock 2 years ago

[polar girder]

Gotcha

[sacred elm]

Yeah, then you have steel plate now. Get FR4

[polar girder]

Yeha get the fr4 then IMO

[robust siren]

dont get the fr4 plate with frciton fit

i have it

[polar girder]

Oh snap

[unborn cargo]

oh why

[robust siren]

its a very very tight squeeze and its hard to take out

like you have to use something to pry it out

[sacred elm]

🤨

[robust siren]

pullout game weak

[unborn cargo]

so i should get it huh

[thorn zealot]

aint that true with any plate

[unborn cargo]

but what do i do about the brass weight? if its sold out somehow :/

[robust siren]

its significally harder to take out compared to the pc plate

[sacred elm]

I mean, if it not stuck in there then it's fine. 60HE v2 will come with a plastic tool to pull the module out of the case

[robust siren]

can support give me one if i have the 60he+

[sacred elm]

Can't you just use the switch puller to pull the module?

[robust siren]

i mean if you dont think youre ever going to take it out OR very rarely mod after this (which is a challenge) then you can go with fr4

[unborn cargo]

do you guys sell brass weight by any chance?

[robust siren]

switch puller is no where near strong enough

[unborn cargo]

does it make the sound better for you?

[polar girder]

Aliexpress does

[sacred elm]

If you have plastic puller then yeah

[unborn cargo]

oh really

[sacred elm]

I meant the real puller

[robust siren]

oh

[polar girder]

I bought my tofu redux brass weight on aliexpress after the fact

[robust siren]

i had to use a screwdriver to pry out the module from the redux case

[unborn cargo]

you got the link maybe? im looking for it but non are found

[robust siren]

its probably the tariffs icl

[tropic urchin]

They not using DHL and got new logistics to combat extra tariffs

[tulip rapids]

Whats the price on kbfans?

[tropic urchin]

I’m chillin

[unborn cargo]

25

but sold out

[tropic urchin]

Try emailing them to see when it’ll come back in stock

They’re really good about getting you what you need

[robust siren]

everything is out of stock on divikey (us seller)

[unborn cargo]

smart but im impatient. will try tho

[tropic urchin]

Fair

[unborn cargo]

oh are they

[tropic urchin]

They’re very accommodating

[unborn cargo]

ill try it now

[thorn zealot]

kbdfans has 🔥 customer support in my experience

[tropic urchin]

Very

[unborn cargo]

how long till they responded to you

[sacred elm]

They have a live chat

[unborn cargo]

oh tidio

[robust siren]

kbd isnt a us vendor and this is for the case alone

[polar girder]

Yeah it was normal price like $25 or whatever

[unborn cargo]

and do you have the link by any chance? cause he found it but for 60 usd

[unborn cargo]

oooo

[polar girder]

Sorry

[unborn cargo]

nah man thanks for the help

yo wtf

i just asked that dude in live chat and he instantly added the brass weight and i can buy it now

[sacred elm]

[unborn cargo]

im tryna buy the cable from them but its says handmade and not any color choices.. i might be dumb tho

like that

asked them in chat

lets see what he says 🫡

non in sale for now.. 🙁

[sacred elm]

Wooting sells coiled cables

https://wooting.io/product/detachable-cable?Color=Stealth

[unborn cargo]

yea ill get it but only if i also get the friction pad thingy

when i press on white or the 2 other colors it doesnt show a preview

is it just the cyan on screen or it doesnt show the preview by accident?

nvm when i press on it then it shows

Which color should i get if im getting a tofu gray anodized case?

[sacred elm]

Maybe stealth

[unborn cargo]

yea im wondering if the stealth or the white but ill prob go with the black

[sacred elm]

Which switches are you getting?

[unborn cargo]

shiii didnt get any yet

look

i got the cable and friction pad from wooting.
the tofu case with brass weight and fr4 thingy.
all that for now

[robust siren]

fall for the trap card of flux deep clackys

[unborn cargo]

now im thinking of maybe switches and wrist rest from kbdfans? or nah

[robust siren]

wooting sells a wrist rest

[sacred elm]

Not many switch options on kbdfans

[robust siren]

but if you dont like silicone then youd have to look for other options

[unborn cargo]

there are like 35 the thing is idk whats the difference

[unborn cargo]

silicone wristrest?

[robust siren]

yeah

[sacred elm]

Most of them are probably not compatible or a bit outdated. Better to just get switches somewhere else

[robust siren]

https://wooting.io/product/wooting-wrist-rest?Size=60+Mini&Color=Just+black

[unborn cargo]

so the ali express you sent?

[unborn cargo]

ill check it out if i want that or a solid one. thanks man

[sacred elm]

Yeah, that's a great option.

https://aliexpress.com/item/1005009888870031.html
https://aliexpress.com/item/1005009244438976.html
whats the difference between them tho?

i want the deeper sound

[sacred elm]

First will be deeper. Flux is just more stable (less stem wobble)

[unborn cargo]

ehh idk if the wobble will really annoy me or sum

so do i get the 60 pc right? i got the wooting 60he

[sacred elm]

Nah, it won't really annoy you. Second switches are also stable. You can't go wrong with either of those.

[sacred elm]

61 if it's ANSI

[robust siren]

its better to have more

[unborn cargo]

the closest option is 60 pcs

[ionic breach]

70

[robust siren]

itd be diablical if fluxes start crunching

[ionic breach]

get that if its avai

[robust siren]

https://tenor.com/view/cat-crunch-cat-crunch-emote-crunch-emote-gif-5506737341963771034

[unborn cargo]

so have 9 spare?

[sacred elm]

They won't. I have them for 6 months, never heard any spring ping or weird sound.

[unborn cargo]

cant i leave 1 with my L45 Lekker 🥺

[ionic breach]

up to u lol

[unborn cargo]

hahaha

anyway i got that buttom right key which i never use

[unborn cargo]

and would you say they sound amazing? 🫣

[ionic breach]

ngl i saw this when i clicked ur link

[unborn cargo]

HAHAHA

wtf

[sacred elm]

Those pink ones are on the way to me. I have the other version now, they're loud but clean sounding.

Pink is quieter/deeper sounding

[unborn cargo]

not like loud high pitch annoying?

[unborn cargo]

the ones im getting you mean? or the other ones

[sacred elm]

yeah, the ones you're getting are deeper.

[unborn cargo]

btw if i open a new ali express account will i get the 75% welcome discount or its patched?

[unborn cargo]

greatttt

[sacred elm]

I doubt

[ionic breach]

wait i kinda want this lol

[sacred elm]

[ionic breach]

lol i didnt even see that

[unborn cargo]

btw, which type of keycaps would you recommend to help the sound and feel maybe?

[sacred elm]

Thick PBT keycaps are usually deeper than ABS keycaps, so if you want deeper sound then get PBT

[unborn cargo]

alr,ty!

[robust siren]

dont forget the spacebar foam

[unborn cargo]

what foam

foam for everything i need

[sacred elm]

You can get it from KBDfans

[unborn cargo]

what does it do

[sacred elm]

Can help dampen the sound a bit

[unborn cargo]

just the sound

oh

[robust siren]

i used the foam that came in the prebuilt 60he

and cut it up to fit inside the spacebar

one side of it already has glue so

[unborn cargo]

so should i get the one from kbd

there are alot of sizes

[robust siren]

i aslo did it for right shift but thats not as important imo

[sacred elm]

Get 3.5mm

[unborn cargo]

and 6.25 or 7U

[sacred elm]

6.25

yall js dont wanna admit you dont wanna use $.03 of foam to improve the sound of $140 keycaps

i just cant prove it yet

[calm pulsar]

foam is copium if you cant tune stabs properly
also gmk spacebars are the besterestest

I mean if you're just using it to alter the sound signature its fine, but if you're trying to fix rattle and things like that then foam isnt that much help imo

[fluid ravine]

That’s why you have to watch every livestream. You never know when sander will be 3 beers in and promise a free wooting to whoever mentions a catchphrase in person

[little glen]

Is the catchphrase something along the lines of "i‘m going to apply to work at wooting"

Iirc it involved covering his eyes as well

@polar girder maybe this will be more worth it for you to order from here rather than geon

[stoic ocean]

When the pcbsnap will bé released in Europe

[little glen]

I think deltakeyco had some

[stoic ocean]

i found them but they cost me 40€

Not on dkc

bcs nobody have them

[little glen]

i think deltakey had some but they went out of stock quickly

https://deltakeyco.com/products/geon-x-nuxros-keysnap

Never mind

Its in stock right now

[calm pulsar]

but its keysnap, there's pcbsnap too

[little glen]

Idk where you looked

[calm pulsar]

seems like 2 different designs

[little glen]

Ah

Whats the diff

[calm pulsar]

no idea exactly, maybe different feel

or intended for different cases/pcbs

[crimson sky]

different purpose

keysnap is for cases that don't have o-ring mountign pillars

so they get secured on the switch essentially

so they can't move side to side

pcbsnap replaces an o-ring mount

[calm pulsar]

ic ic, it's nice to have these options for cheap

[little glen]

interesting

doesnt look like pcbsnap enables using non oring pcb in oring cases tho

[crimson sky]

yea it doesn't make the PCB shift on the 3rd dimensional axis in 4d space that is correct

[little glen]

what

[calm pulsar]

im trying to understand lol

[crimson sky]

yea idk what you were expecting

how would it enable PCBs to be used in cases where they straight up don't fit in

[little glen]

idk maybe could have put a barrier between the 2 and let you use non oring pcb that still have daughterboard

ofc i wasnt expecting it to put holes into the pcb magically

thought maybe it could offer something more than slightly different feel compared to traditional oring

[calm pulsar]

for frog mini it is nice because this case requires custom plates and only uses tadpoles by default
with this you can use normal plates and have an oring-like mount

[little glen]

true

[calm pulsar]

when bakka 60 atlas drops I might build it in my frog

[little glen]

i would have loved a frog mini but now i got my eyes on that gambling themed case

[calm pulsar]

lol what is this case called

[little glen]

slots60

#🔧│keyboard_modding message

[calm pulsar]

ah that lol

goddamn that case looks chinese

the sides of it look like some other case i saw before

Tho it is gambling themed

which parts in the wooting keyboard do i not change/mod? that i wont ruin the whole point of the keyboard? is it like the pcb?

[tidal frigate]

Well you can mod pc but you loose warranty

[unborn cargo]

no i mean without xd, i wanna know all the things i can mod. but without ruining the whole point of the keyboard yk?

[calm pulsar]

I think you can mod plate, switches, case, stabs and not loose warranty, but better check on the website

[tidal frigate]

You can mod everything

[unborn cargo]

if i bought the keyboard 2 years ago will i still have warranty?

[tidal frigate]

But when you destroy pcb

[calm pulsar]

iirc it was 4 years

the warranty

[tidal frigate]

Your warranty goes away

[tropic urchin]

Pretty much everything except PCB pretty much you can change

PCB is pretty much the only constant

[unborn cargo]

oh great

so only not to change the pcb basically

[calm pulsar]

imagine using that MX pcb that kbdfans make for holy80 and sending it to wooting with a warranty claim that rapid trigger doesn't work

[tropic urchin]

LMAO

that would be hilarious

[trail bane]

Tuff

[unborn cargo]

is there a point in buying these? will it make pressing softer or something better than what i got stock rn?

[calm pulsar]

if you want to change the weight of the switches, yes

also note that on this listing most springs are for mechanical switches, not HE

but geon has HE springs

[unborn cargo]

so do i choose the Pingless he compatibility? and get the 45g weight?

[calm pulsar]

yeah these will work for HE

[unborn cargo]

will it like make it "softer" or "easier" to press? is that the point of these

[calm pulsar]

if you go lighter yes, stock wooting switches are 60g bottom out

[unborn cargo]

oh so its a pretty nice difference

[unborn cargo]

im getting new switches from ali express

and these springs then too

[calm pulsar]

most new switches are already light, you can double check the specs on them and maybe you dont need separate springs

[peak breach]

Just got my other set

[unborn cargo]

oh ima check rq

[peak breach]

The collection groweth

[unborn cargo]

its called Switch deep clacky sound 35gf magnetic linear

is that it?

[tropic urchin]

For geon pingless you’d get 42.5g bottom out

[unborn cargo]

oh its also the only one in stock now that i see.

[little glen]

what happened to that red samurai

[tropic urchin]

You’ll find it on Geonworks or your regional keyboard vendor, but you have to be careful since they’ll only
Work for short spring switches like owlabs ti he and similar

[peak breach]

It’s rly old

[marble sierra]

Red Squashmurai

[tropic urchin]

Some switches have unique springs like raptor V2s (TTC POM spring compatible) and flux where you won’t be able to swap from stock as easily

[unborn cargo]

[little glen]

also i spot a bit of a red theme here

[peak breach]

Yeah pretty much

[unborn cargo]

so if i buy these should i get the pingless 42.5?

[tropic urchin]

Yeah pingless won’t work

[unborn cargo]

oh so i dont get them alrr

[calm pulsar]

yeah actually these have their own spring diameter, but they are still lighter than wooting stock ones

[tropic urchin]

Wuque might release other springs in the future

[calm pulsar]

and smoother

Considering they were nowhere to be found when we had the talk for days, i'll happily ignore the existence of Raeds kek

@tidal frigate #💬│general message

[tropic urchin]

Anyone who likes Raeds with blue role should be demoted to white role

[little glen]

i know shit and you dont

[unborn cargo]

anyone knows where i can find like gray "metallic" looking keycaps? maybe even without the letters on them👀

[tropic urchin]

If you don’t want legends look for “blank” keycaps

Or blanks

For instance look at Pbtfans Lyla keycaps @unborn cargo

[little glen]

do you want full metal keycaps or just something that looks metallic

[unborn cargo]

whats legends

[tropic urchin]

The letters

[calm pulsar]

letters on keybort

[tropic urchin]

Are called legends

[unborn cargo]

oh okk

well its out of stock in kbdfans except the white ones but maybe ill find in ali express

[tropic urchin]

Yeah was to see if that fits what you want

[unborn cargo]

https://www.aliexpress.com/item/32727885210.html if i get these dark gray ones? its pbt too and says "ansi"

[humble surge]

you can btw remove all the tracking BS after the "html"

[unborn cargo]

after the .html?

[humble surge]

yeah

product links for aly end with the ID you see and .html

[unborn cargo]

like that?

[humble surge]

yep much easier on eyes and people just get to the product

[unborn cargo]

yup, ty will do for next times

how can i check if the seller is legit tho? cause he only has like 49 sold with not almost any reviews

[humble surge]

Not sure, but price is low enough that i would personally give this seller with only 3 feedback and 49 sales a try

[unborn cargo]

yea its very low actually

and i really like the look on them with the redux 60 gray anodized that im about to get

[humble surge]

If you can get a better one recommended by others, you can always go with that instead

[calm pulsar]

here are this seller's stats

[unborn cargo]

yea ill look but dont seem to find alot others

oh

looks good then

[humble surge]

I'm only judging by the product

[unborn cargo]

and damn its pretty cheap considering other keycaps i saw

[humble surge]

ever

[calm pulsar]

yeah but seems more on my end too

[unborn cargo]

mmm

[calm pulsar]

yeah these are quite cheap compared to most other caps

[fallen pecan]

womier has a few metallic looking caps

[humble surge]

because probably diff sub product selected?

[calm pulsar]

probably just region locked reviews

[humble surge]

Actually no, no change

[calm pulsar]

for me it doesnt change if I select diff colors

[humble surge]

Not sure then

Safe to try imo

[tropic urchin]

ANSI is layout

[unborn cargo]

oo they got a few very nice ones, but it also has expensive shipping and ofc the product is much more expensive ;/ but ill see

[unborn cargo]

so i choose ansi not the other one right?

[tropic urchin]

I didn’t get a look since aliexpress is aids on mobile

[calm pulsar]

yeah, these fit wooting which uses a standard 60% layout, so no worries

[unborn cargo]

its ansi or add 4 iso keys

oh ok

[tropic urchin]

Nice

But from my 1-3 seconds before aliexpress gave me the twitter “make an account!” Popup it looked nice

[unborn cargo]

btw whats the difference between the pbt ones i get from aliexpress vs the stock i got from wooting 60he? is it only the looks

[calm pulsar]

wooting ones will likely be higher quality, and obviously have legends

[tropic urchin]

Could be different PBT keycaps — I.e. double shot PBT and dyesub PBT

I think the feel might be slightly different, but the type matters less and what matters is more the quality of the PBT

[calm pulsar]

if these are blanks then probably just pure plastic without dye sublimation

[tropic urchin]

I’d try to get the PBTFans Lyla those would be pretty good quality wise

Off aliexpress or somewhere else if they’re out of stock

You could also try to get the optimum keycaps which are blanks too
