what is the rakka 60 atlas

chilly mural

#

oohhh it has a waifu on the pcb

fringe quarry
#

although i could probably not put that in a leggera or

calm pulsar
#

using usb port on the side or daughterboard like venom

fringe quarry
#

where do you connect the daughterboard from geon

calm pulsar
#

ahh wait I forgot leggera G has that mini db

#

then it might not fit

#

unless you can connect another db somehow

#

but the stock one is like the square one attached to venom pcb

fringe quarry
calm pulsar
#

yeah kinda sucks

#

good thing I can use it with my frog mini

fringe quarry
#

interesting connection

#

or is that a connector

calm pulsar
tawdry tree
calm pulsar
fringe quarry
#

idk if those are the same kinda connectors

#

but both got 4 cables atleast

tawdry tree
fringe quarry
#

the db uses ezmate

tawdry tree

#

ill just wait xd

tawdry tree
fringe quarry
fringe quarry
#

nice

#

how is rakka software

tawdry tree
#

Among the very few that still gets regular updates

crimson sky
#

harold ezmate is such a garbage connector

tawdry tree
#

Is it the standard for fly dbs?

crimson sky
#

only ever had one board with it and almost ripped off the connector twice

crimson sky
#

yes

#

I had it in a ziggurat

#

tho the designer also said that they would switch to JST if they ever reran that board

tawdry tree
#

only ever used JST I think

#

guess I’ll know how those ezmate connectors are soon enough

#

is JST just better than molex in general?

#

or just that type of connector

fringe quarry
#

although maybe ill just go back to wooting with 60v2 and a like an optimum case

#

not the biggest fan of the leggera

#

then i could go back to iso blobaww

crimson sky
#

molex does a LOT of connectors

#

and JST is just a style of connectors

tawdry tree
#

ah, thought it was a brand too

crimson sky
#

just japanese standardizing

tawdry tree
#

ic

fringe quarry
#

a LOT is an understatement

crimson sky
#

similar to a DIN connector in naming ig

#

yea molex makes a stupidly wide range of connectors

#

Clueless they made the connector that 12vhpwr is based on

fringe quarry
#

i just noticed that my gmk set doesnt have split spacebars

#

and they dont sell them seperatly...

crimson sky
#

yea they often get put into a spacebars kit with 6us

#

#

what set do you have

tawdry tree
#

unlucky mfer dogekek

crimson sky
#

they usually include it or have one

tawdry tree

yeah

I’d believe that if Jean from KBDfans didn’t say it wouldn’t update until post customs and usps receiving SwitchyActually

i never had problems with aliexpress

I have decided to give away my SM4, gonna wait for Crinear reference to come out next year and gonna snag that bitch... After 60hev2+knob+tecsee

#

aliexpress gave me a late coupon when my fluxes took 9 days

tropic urchin
#

$1 coupon just in time to not use it on anything else

chilly mural
tropic urchin
#

It’ll probably expire by then

chilly mural
#

if all else fail, there's always raeds

tropic urchin
#

That’s a failure of a rage bait

#

I’ve yet to see someone main them and speak positively

It’s always the people who don’t use it memeing it

#

Is there confirmation about the spring weight on the Lekker Tikkens?

little glen
#

teal stem so probably around 60

sacred elm
glossy pagoda
#

Middle of the road, with a lower total range

little glen
#

tikkens use long springs right

sacred elm
#

Yes, 21mm

little glen
#

when are we getting long spring packs

#

i need that shit

tropic urchin
mental salmon
sacred elm
#

Tikkens will be around the same weight as Wooting x TTC KOM POM switches

little glen
sacred elm
#

Heavier than Owlab Ti 50g

mental salmon
tropic urchin
#

T45 might happen, but probably won’t be for the initial launch

little glen
tropic urchin
#

Why would I ask anything of jakub 😭

#

I’d rather use 100g springs than interact with that generative AI

#

He will just @ you with the most random shit then dip for 20 mins when you get annoyed or press him

tropic urchin
little glen
#

the ramune60 is the only board where i would consider black colorway

#

that thing looks SICK

calm pulsar
#

almost nonexistent

little glen
#

that can probably fit a 60he, might need custom plate tho

#

i'm so damn tempted but i dont think i can justify the price

#

i pray that the successor to the two he is an 80he with numpad stuck to the side, missing the keys that 80he doesnt have either

#

just cause i think it would be funny seeing the freakout some people would have

#

i'm honestly very curious on how lighter springs are ive never tried them

tropic urchin
rotund perch
#

yea ill see how the owlab ti springs are see if i would want lighter springs

tropic urchin
#

are you getting the 40g option?

#

i ended up ordering 42.5g geon pingless springs and it was interesting

#

think i still prefer 45g tho

rotund perch
#

let me check

#

yea

#

the 40g

#

how big of a difference are the lekker v2s between the v1?

tropic urchin
#

are you using L45 or L60s

#

L45 it would have a difference, but if you're using L60s it will be very weird

rotund perch
#

im getting L60s but i hjave l60s rn

tropic urchin
#

ah yeah it will be a complete 180 then

#

my rec would be to adjust your actuation/RT sensitivity if its too much at first

rotund perch
#

if i like the lighter spring on owlabs and if i prefer lekker v2s in general i might the 45s

tropic urchin
rotund perch
#

oh so i dont need to buy new switches just replace the spring?

tropic urchin
#

yeah

rotund perch
#

i could theoretically put the lekker v2 60s in my 60he

tropic urchin
#

you can use the spring in other short spring switches (also can use geon pingless HE which should work as well)

rotund perch
#

is it the lekker springs?

#

oooh yeah i see

#

kineticlabs makes good keycaps btw?

little glen
#

i should not have looked at deltakeyco, they still have mantas for sale

okay i'll stop ragebaiting

the only problem is the translucency

make that a solid white and it's clean

Nah the translucency is the best part

nah man ts ass

#

i'm sorry

robust siren
robust siren

but ill have to cope with that as my incoming switches are 50g

Felt like my keys were stuck in mud

Just use the 35g Wooting springs

Someone should make a gmk set that is colorblind blanks

#

They are only blank for people that are colorblind

marsh saffron
#

I feel targeted

fringe quarry
#

they should just make a lot of colors with white or black text

little glen
#

Half of the target audience is colorblind people and the other half is their friends that want to prank them

is there any way to modify a switch to sound less crunchy? tried it on every board I own and it's really definitely the switch itself qwq

these?

yessir

to me something sounds off about them

based solely off of sound profile they're gross but they actually feel so dreamy

Tempted to get a few more deep clack to fill out my F row, these owlabs are rough 😭

chilly mural
#

You can ask the person I just pinged (varedis) on that matter, he used both flux a lot

analog reef
#

oh man qwq

chilly mural
#

like... 1.2$ per switch cheaper

analog reef
#

$100 / 90 is still pain even if the price was higher once

chilly mural
#

It's alright, you can always get the switch later.

analog reef
#

I know qwq

#

but the instant gratification.......

#

oooouuuuughhhhhh

chilly mural
#

though that's prop more pain than just waiting

analog reef

I have a job 💔

#

do you think they'd be getting any cheaper...?

chilly mural
#

Not sure. You gotta pray for that one unfortunately.

wauuughh

rotund perch
#

is there any big noticeable difference between the pet film and your own tape mod in the 80he really?

Is there a list of all available 80HE cases, both official and maybe dupes?

Gt80, holy80, bone80

lethal ingot

That’s unfortunate pepe_cry

The holy80 was the one I was looking at but it was more expensive than the keyboard itself

At this point I might as well just contact the cnc company near me and ask them to make it for me 😭

I am visiting my girlfriend soon and I am building a custom board for her so I should really get the keycaps she wants instead

#

I think I will do that, actually

wispy thistle
#

My gmk copper finally came in. blobaww what do you guys think. Mod another 60he or should I mod a 80he. Or neither and just make one completely for sound/typing cus I have a 60he.

tropic urchin
humble surge
#

Looks great, make a 80HE :)

tropic urchin
#

I think it would look nice on both

#

id use it on whichever you think you'll use the most so it starts to get shiny and smooth

little glen
#

Get the qk alice duo

#

😄

tropic urchin
#

the smoothness of GMK is when it starts to get nice

#

once it starts to shine it feels like you're typing on stone its fun

little glen
#

I have so many keycaps and like no boards to put them all on

#

Crazy problem to have

wispy thistle
tropic urchin
wispy thistle
#

What do you mean by theme

tropic urchin
#

do you want it to be specific colors, do you have alot of colorful keycaps, do you want colorful keycaps etc

#

bc you can drastically change the look of each build depending on what you want

#

you could go full green with a GMK british racing for example or go full purple with another route

#

so it was just more if you had a plan for each board or not

#

if not thats cool too bc thats most of the fun anyway

#

The look and overall theme of GMK Copper will be different from GMK Black and Gold which will be different from GMK Dragon witch etc

wispy thistle
#

For the new one

tropic urchin
#

ah cool

wispy thistle
#

I’m going to use gmk copper

tropic urchin
#

so you have a lighter 60HE build

#

then a slightly more robust and darker 80HE I take it

wispy thistle
tropic urchin
#

not sure how long ago the pic was only seeing the 60 and the copper keycaps

wispy thistle
#

But I don’t think I have any options like that for 80he

tropic urchin
#

keyboard options as in like a new case?

wispy thistle
#

Only thing I see is gt-80 with gray I guess but idk

would you recommend the geon stem spacers? I'd get the 0.5mm option because the jade pros are 3.5mm right?

I'll probably be fine with the stock stabs for now at least

#

Do people still use o-rings to fix the bottoming out and decrease resonance? If so, are there different methods to use o-rings or all of them put the o-rings on the keycap part?

little glen
#

Dont use o-rings on your switches or keycaps with HE

clever vault
#

Is there a reason?

little glen
#

It adds inaccuracy

clever vault
#

Any other way to prevent bottoming out?

#

or at least reduce the sound it makes?

little glen
#

You can use silent switches

clever vault
#

Does Wooting sell any silent switches?

little glen
#

No but there are some recommended silents out there you can buy

fringe quarry
#

will still reduce performance a bit and not feel as nice

Man. Bruh.

just a lil question, why is the ow60 case 500$, what makes it special?

fair enough lol

those are cheap somehow

ill assume that even a refurbed ow60 will be at least 250

the main difference being the pink left is like jade pros sound profile with significantly better stability and the right is very bright clack (not a 1:1 to owlabs, but is very loud)

what was your opionion on them?

Both are very good, just depends which sound profile you like more

how do they compare vs geon raws for example? thats what i have in my 80he rn

Pink Flux isn't loud

misty sapphire

fringe quarry
#

they got speakers in them or what

sacred elm
#

White Fluxes are very loud, I think the only switch that's louder is Flux RGB lol

misty sapphire
#

when are those new wooting switches coming, wanna try those

misty sapphire
#

oooo

rotund perch
#

how is the factory lube on the lekker v2s?

rotund perch
#

is it worth hand lubing ?

glossy pagoda
#

Worth is subjective

#

I don't think it's worth hand lubbing any switch, ever

rotund perch
#

fair enough ive never done it either way

glossy pagoda
#

It's easy, just takes time and patience

#

Two things that I do not have in abundance 😛

rotund perch
#

just checked a video i can hear a slight difference but its not worth 2 hours or so for it lol

tropic urchin
#

Only worth it if your switches feel considerably dry or sound otherwise plasticky

rotund perch
#

ah ok

#

honestly i probably wouldnt be able to tell 😭

I’m using abs rn

robust siren

should be fun sound testing

misty sapphire
#

Pbtfans xray

#

I’ve had 2 doubleshot pbt sets and 2 abs sets

#

The pbt sounded better to me

#

But the X-rays look really good on the white zinc with low backlight

#

The whole key glows and the light refracts in the clear toplayer of the caps

robust siren
#

i ordered the novelties already and getting the base + white alphas next week

misty sapphire
robust siren
#

i think my DC Fluxes should also arrive within the next week or so

misty sapphire
#

Black zinc with pbtfans retro dark v2 or whatever it was

#

The black zinc had the paint issue so they send me a white one for free and I swapped to the X-rays

robust siren
misty sapphire
#

They have ugly holes in em and if you have a backlight on it shines through

#

From the injection moulding

robust siren
#

ah

misty sapphire
#

You can see them clearly under the D

robust siren
#

@marsh saffron has the xrays

misty sapphire
#

Old pic

#

Kinda hard to capture how they look irl on camera

robust siren
#

yeah i think some people paint over them or cover the hole

misty sapphire
#

These have the same holes

#

I put thick white nail polish in the bottom and they don’t shine through as much

robust siren
#

or they changed it on more recent batches(?) dont quote me on that

misty sapphire
rotund perch
#

is it just the one from wooting?

misty sapphire
#

Yea

rotund perch

how is it

misty sapphire

They gave me a free one

@sacred elm can you pin

robust siren
rotund perch
#

it looks like a silent switch sort of even though its not

tropic urchin
#

New Mr mod man

rotund perch
#

it reminds me of one lmao

tropic urchin
#

But they are deeper and not obnoxiously loud as the original

rotund perch
#

im just waiting for my 80he and my owlabs to arrive so i can try them

#

i just have to wait till monday 😭

#

for 80he

robust siren
tropic urchin
#

You can order deep clack later if you’re still interesting in better stability switches, but if you just want owlabs then they are good as well

tropic urchin
#

To finish the keyboard

#

Even tho I don’t use frow

rotund perch
#

honestly i can feel the stem wobble on my lekker v1s a bit now while typing

tropic urchin

#

owlabs had a short meta

tropic urchin
#

Owlabs just cheap with good top wobble, they’re overrated imo but I want less bright and more overall stability to be gud

#

Playing any fps with that bottom-out was yuck

rotund perch
#

i don't necessarily like the owlab higher pitch clack but its not the end of the world for me

tropic urchin
robust siren
#

this is the first time in a i made any significant changes since the last time i modded my wooting (im not gonna count MMD C1 cause theyre dirt cheap + returned)

rotund perch
#

yea

tropic urchin
# rotund perch yea

To give you an idea tho I loved the Jade pro sound, but their wobble was just not great for me after a few months so I upgraded to TTC POM and that became my new standard.

robust siren
#

@tropic urchin when i get fluxes the silicone + foam pads are getting chopped up SwitchyLaser

rotund perch
#

i hear sometimes about the duhuk herz are those any relevant now

tropic urchin
#

Deep clack has tighter top wobble than POM (smaller box stem) and comparable bottom wobble with jade pro sound which is why I am so fanatical about them

rotund perch
tropic urchin
rotund perch
#

ah

tropic urchin
#

There’s lots of recolors in this space

tropic urchin
rotund perch
#

so deep clack is just jade pros but better

tropic urchin
#

Jade pros with TTC POM stability which is crazy

rotund perch
#

how good is the ttc pom stability?

#

i havent heard much

tropic urchin
#

They’re labeled as TTC Helios

#

But their stability is comparable

rotund perch
# tropic urchin

wow i can finally see the full text of the peaches and tikkens

robust siren
#

mmd c1s had a nice sound to them

#

they were just in the return window for me to invest them into fluxes and new keycaps

stable dawn
#

so i just built an 80he as my first like nice keyboard and i noticed that some parts especially the middle of hte keyboard sound a decent amount better is there a way i can use like foam or something to make everything sound like that especially the up arrow or is it kinda just something that happens no matter what i do

robust siren
#

i wouldve kept them otherwise

stable dawn
#

also i got jade pros if that matters

rotund perch
#

i mean i also ordered jade pros before asking questions here so if i like those alot i might go for fluxes

#

but the lekker v2s seem just fine for me lmao

tropic urchin
#

You could use more foam if you want, but those variances will still exist

I tried a cherry mx blue clone by gateron and like the tactility but not the sound, so brown is what I want even back then.

Based on old SGI Granite keyboards, Matt3o took the inspiration and added some RGB accents and basic ergo support. 11 years, and several successful runs of Granite later, Matt3o has given us the blessing to bring his now classic Granite colorway to his new keycap profile- PBS. GB August 8th.

#

Clean set if you’re in to alternate profiles

#

Big fan of the PBS profile, personally

meager skiff
polar girder
#

I haven’t tried DSA. But PBS looks lower in height and more uniform

#

I love the flow between keycaps. Very smooth.

#

“Think of it as DSA done right, because DSA is boring and PBS is all but!”

meager skiff
#

its hard to tell from info online but they kinda just look like slightly squashed DSA to me smile

polar girder
#

PBS is dye sublimate tho. They are definitely more of a budget profile

#

There’s PBS vs GMK

meager skiff
#

glorpNOTED ah, so they have kind of a concave to them?

polar girder
#

Yeah

#

The ridge is very smooth and satisfying tho

#

whats the diff in the l45 and l60 im bad at understanding switch specs

tropic urchin
#

so for L45, your initial force is 30g/45g to bottom out the switch, L60 is 40g/60g to bottom out

#

so for L60 your initial force is pretty close to fully bottoming out for the L45 is the biggest thing

covert solstice
tropic urchin
#

50g bottom out is usually the sweet spot for most people, 60g is on the higher end

covert solstice

if you bought the prebuilt wooting, youre already gonna have lekker L60 v2s

also unrelated but in wootility is there a way to make profiles that auto activate when you start playine a certain gasme

covert solstice
#

i also play osu, so i may just leave my z and x on sum lighter switches, any recs for that?

robust siren
#

also on aliexpress and quite cheap

covert solstice
#

will do ty

#

i think ima do the tofu60 case, will i need anything else?

robust siren
#

its comparable to foam

robust siren
covert solstice
robust siren
#

id suggest maybe a different plate

robust siren
#

PC plate will sound deeper and be more flexy

#

FR4 is a good middle-ground, will feel kinda like the steel plate but doesnt have a metal ping

covert solstice
#

gocha, i really like how the v2 sounded in the videos, obv i know its not out yet, but i am kinda going for a similar sound profile

stable dawn
#

one more thing is the rgb shining through the keycaps different from the color from like between them because i have green switches or is that just how the rgb works

robust siren
covert solstice
robust siren
#

60he v2 will also have a silicone pad at the bottom as an option i believe

which slightly changes the sound a little but not enough to worry about
