Get you a +84 

lol I want to get her the ergo
i might get kidnapped by its the truth
what ergo specifically?
Truth hurts. It’s alright I respect it lol
Neo Ergo
oh hell yea
Idk any other good options tho
hmmm
Never look at mx. I just liked that one for her
I like that it’s Alice plus tented
And still one solid keyboard
I showed her the Alice Duo but I think that’s a little too unconventional for her
its giving i like this should you should get it 
ngl neo ergo is the only ergo board i know
Yeah I think it’ll due
Just gotta figure out switches and wait for that wooden wrist rest
what kind of build youre going for out of it
Simple, subtle, office sophistication
jk not true clack but you can still get a nice thin smol clack out of 4mm switches
lol def quiet
hmm
lol
Yeah prob max quiet
o max quiet
Like she’s max max silent rn
oh dayum
Don’t want something that’s distracting during web meetings lol
got ittt
I mean the Apple keyboard is pretty silent
valid
Yeah the Magic Keyboard. That’s what she’s using now
oh yeah coming off from a low profile type keyboard is going to be weirdddd
get pbs
its like mid profile and comfy
yeaaa gotta def do more research on silent switches here bigsly
looking at some build even with plateless this thing can still be pretty loud (some long pole switches) thin and loud still
resonance as well
gonna need some foam
thick dense foam, nothing compact, use the foam it comes with, maybe do use a plate
maybe POM plate, damn got no PC

Currently selling a wilba tech salvun salvation casefor 200$, cerakoted white, dm me if interested🙂 new condition barely used not even week.
A salvation 
oh tenz 80he has black feet
"Silicone feet v2"
wonder if its changed other than colour
cos idk why he said that instead of just black feet
😳
For those who have purchased UFOs, how long did it take before they were shipped? Curious
tenz 80he feet has rapid trigger
rapid trigger feeties
aren't the shape different too ?
no clue, just saw colour change in the tenz short
the case is pcr with a fr4 plate 😭
Rapid grippers
more dust resistant
the first version picked up a lot of visible dust in black, so his has an updated formula that doesn't pick up as much dust
cool
i just got my unit today, which means i finally have a dust cover lol
i never bought a prebuilt 80he for ages
the sides are definitely cooler than i expected
so it's basically the top and bottom area are similar black plastic, but then the entire stripe that goes around entire keyboard in between the top/bottom case is translucent
so it's both opaque at top and bottom but translucent around the middle
Hello everybody !
I recently build a 60 V2 with the owlab OW60 case and I absolutely love it.
The problem is the yellow and black cable that comes with the 60 HE V2 module, do you know if the detachable Premium Cable Set is compatible ?
I think it is but i want to be sure about it.
it is yea
Hey everybody!
I want to get the optimum keycaps set for the black 60he v2 does that go together?
I have the split spacebar layout. Would I need to get 2 sets of optimum keycaps?
Yes you’d need 2 sets, or buy something like pbtfans lyla for blank black keycaps
They’re sold out
Any thoughts on these?
You will have to purchase 1 Alpha kit and 1 Mod kit to get full coverage of your 65% keyboard. A new colour variant has joined the POM family, introducing Ink. Ink differs from the translucent POM Jelly series as it is a solid colour. Mix and match with other POM Jelly kits for a two toned set. *The Alpha kit consist
Looks in stock to me, unless you mean some particular shop

Cosmos great value

MMD AR80 pcb: 269 yuan bare pcb + daughterboard, 389 yuan pcb + 85 C1 switches + daughterboard https://item.taobao.com/item.htm?id=1011835098545
Non standard layout 🤢
Well it’s an 80HE clone 
it's alright, maybe you'll get lucky and have such pcb, a small chance it could have split too
what i need is more premium 80he cases
owlabs 80
i have a the enter key that when pressed does not bounce back properly, i tried reseating the keycap but no improvements. Can it be an issue with the stab?
could be a stab issue yeah
do you feel any resistance if you try to move the stabs up and down manually?
yeah you may need to check the stabs then sounds like something is wrong
i cant say exactly what maybe the wire popped out or something else
Theres no active code for KBDFans or the GT-80 specifically right now, is there?
The king still reigns
Long live the king
I want to gift my old 80HE to my younger brother, but I want him to have the best possible experience - similar to what I had when I tried the 60HE v2 out-of-the-box.
How do I upgrade/tune my existing 80HE so it feels better?
Want to see what I did
I've never modded a keyboard before so I dont want to go super-extreme type shi on my first one
but yeah I wanna see
thats turbo sick
If you wanna tune them, I’d follow this video: https://youtu.be/vxHb6CJc9V8. if you don’t wanna tune them, I’d search for your stabilizer of preference and search for “Prelubed and wire balanced” (they will be more expensive if you go down this route)
Here is how I mod my stabilizers. I get asked this a lot of my streams and honestly, I figured why not just record this so I can link this video instead of having to re-explain it every time. I hope you enjoy it. Please remember this video is only covering lubing and installing, some stabs like cherry clip-ins, you'll need to clip the bottom leg...
Is the stabilizers the main thing ?
Like, I love the out-of-box feel of 60HE V2
fact its so tight, minimal wobble
way less then my 80HE
do I just get the Lekker Tikkens ?
Stabilizers are only for your shifts/space bar and backspace, will also depend on what switches you’re running on both too
tikkens would be the easiest way to make the 80he feel better and almost on par with with 60hev2
What was the best spot to source Knight stabs for 80HE?
US?
Divinikey and Cannon Keys both have them in stock
Has anyone disassembled the friction fit and put it back yet on their v2? Just wondering how hard it is
Don't wanna fuck up if I have to do it.
I have assembled and disassembled every piece of it. I didn’t consider any of it hard, and Wooting has great videos on YouTube.
Is there any particular part of the process you’re worried about?
EU
Putting it back basically. I only want to seperate pcb and push out a switch.
It’s super easy - you won’t have any problem
Only quirky things I remember are that there’s one screw hidden under the tape on the bottom so you will have to peel that tape back to get it apart. And IIRC on the diagram on the tape there’s a screw that’s mislabeled as a stabilizer screw.
Can anyone help me assemble my stabilisers they keep falling off
oh rly do u have a screen for me
is the website wrong?
i mean i need to remove a tab switch on the left, do i even need to unscrew all screws? could i get away with just the left side + quickly sticking a finger to pop up one switch?
i feel like that would make things super easy lol

I got some from deltakeyco, might still be in stock
Beat me to it 🫡
@uneven cradle @ebon quiver thanks!
yeye but he doesnt put it back u know
and the vids make it look easy lmao
Watch that video @sacred elm linked - it will show you how quick and easy it is
it is easy
Remove stabilizer keycaps, unscrew 8 screws on the back of the PCB, lift the plate and pull the switch
then reassemble
do i need to remove stab keycaps?
i see hes grabbing it on the top and bottom edges so doesnt look like it matters to remove keycaps if i dont wanna remove all switches
And you use the tool included with your keyboard to pull the module from the case (after you unplug it obviously)
You need to remove stabilizer keycaps, otherwise you won't be able to separate PCB and plate.
oh ok
i mean im still debting whether i wanna return or just do this fix
does opening it up void my return?
No
doesnt void warranty i know at least
If you don't damage anything obviously.
ye thats my worry
i thought removing switches was easy cus i had two other boards where it was easy
and this one was holy ok
i guess he switches need to be stable so it makes sense
Some switches are hard to remove
You can't really damage anything, just follow the video and you'll be fine
Nice wall right
just spent time changing out all the stabs for the tx ap long stem, stabilized keys definitely feel and sound better in comparison to the stock stabs with dcf
much less hollow sounding now that they actually sit flush

finally my v2 is done
won't need to change anything on it any time soon, hopefully
kb and pc upgrade
twist and wiggle the keys while pulling up
usually helps
Chozo 🐣
is it just me or is it impossible to take out the switches on the 60he v2
I'm undecided about which color I'm going to choose.
Same
The weight of cryogenesis will ultimately be like that of the others
The anomaly is just blue; I thought it was mixed with purple.
I’m interested how gambling ages looks like
Me too
to be discussed with the content creators regarding the other colors
@trail bane
I’d just take the plate off the pcb and push the switches out from the back
First of all, I’m waiting for Alex’s stream on Gambling ages. Cryogenesis will be sent to one Russian YouTuber for a review, so I’ll be able to get more information
Lemme see
A french guy too
Raie de boule
And likewise, I'm waiting for Alexotos for the Gambling Ages.
@trail bane
Nah, anomaly is insta skip for me
anyone know good metal keycap sites
This shit is just blue
I asked Manu for a reddish-purple color because the alien on the back looks like Femto 👀
To bright, to blueish
Fr
Or a dark purple, I'm too obsessed with Berserk, but that could have been cool, it's just blue.
For me it's going to be the aged one, or cryo
Carbon Fiber plate for 60he v2 split
Where did you get one?
I neeeed
Ooh split too 👀
Taobao
taobao making plates before woot released the files
the magic of measuring things 
Ima try to order a Vella later today @stoic ocean
Still aint sure on which layout i want tho icl
Either WK or WKL
Hurry before they run out of stock
there's still 3 left kek
Dang
its been there since we had our last conversation hehe
but yea ill order when i get home from school

istg if they decline my card or wtv im gonna crash out
I had like 400 euros on a virtual card, I didn't think I could pay with it
wait so were you able to?
I still have about 430 left; the Gehirn60 is going to bankrupt me.

I got a total of 230 euros free😈
im going broke from the vella 😭
pretty sure ill have like less than $50
after all this
well maybe
I sponsored two friends of mine; I received €110 the first time and €130 the second time.

Bro my translator is broken
Well
I can read and understand, but I'm too lazy to write. 😭
So I got the Vella for free 😈
damnnn
I wanted to get the Tofu60 3.0, but I don't have enough because I want the Gehirn60 with the Rakka Atlas.
It's okay, I'll wait for the Constance 60. 👀
I'll have time to put some money aside.
@fluid ravine are you planning to get the Vella in black?
I bought it in silver, I'm waiting for the Kap Vella too
yeaaa
im going to get it in black and put gmk black snails on it
Ah yes, you said it, I'm so stupid
i dont got any other keycaps that goes well with any of the other colors
lul you're good mane
Guess it's time to buy some more 
nhehhehehe
is there any way to get a muted HE switch without having the bottom-out feel unsatisfying
like my raptor v2s feel just the tiniest bit off when bottoming out but they sound awesome and a little muted compared to other switches i have
Not really they all have that bottom out
hm ok
what's the quietest switch that doesn't use a gel pad or something
i know the raptors v2 are a little quiet
Idk all my switches are loud aside my Raeds which have that rubber bottom out
Question about the raeds what is the correct orientation on north facing lds? Wooting 80 he or orientation doesnt matter
Not sure if the left or the rights side is correct
Yeah I would assume logo on top, but I don't think it matters much there's no diffuser or anything
Okays so the left side is the correct thanks guys. I mean both work but i wasnt sure as there is a tec logo on one side and a HE on the other 😅
Technically, you can flip it left 90 degrees to have the Tec logo on top, and HE on the bottom.
But it doesnt matter, just aesthetics
Just doing a test run not my switches. Has anyone had the tecsee gel pad the white ones with blue stem, and compared them with the raeds? Is there a big difference?
Would love to try WKL, but in case of Vella ig WK looks way cleaner
Gn
i think my order kinda glitched
7u cf suppose to be sold out
but we'll see what happens
thats an achievement on its own
ph1 like the rest
no like
m1? m2?
they also look like flatheads
idk how to model these screws lmao
or tell the cnc miller that's how i want it
oh thats what you mean
im not entire sure if you want to use the ones included because they arent machine screws
huh ok
if i recall right they were normal screws cause they have to screw into plastic
its the same screws that hold the pcb in the bottom case btw
ah so m2x3 flatheads
if that fits the thread size then sure
dumb me outer diameter i mean
not like the original thread matters to you
show this keybort
actually im genuinely unsure now
this screw is apparently too big to fit into the standoffs?
too big for these standoffs
im probably not factoring in the
daughterboard though
too big? or too long
cause its 2mm diameter
3.8 is just the head which is fine
m2 basically means 2mm diameter on the thread outer and 0.4mm pitch i think
example chart of ultra thin flatheads
unless i misunderstood the problem
ill just go sleep and then tomorrow ill know if i understood right or not
I just got deep clacky now I think I’m gonna have to track these down
debtson
how's your trip
spent too much
LMAO i can see that
dropped 190us on just liberty walk and it was a small store 
theyre a japanese based car widebody kit manufacturer

they chopped up one of the rarest ferraris for a kit
and i got a model of one

the hoodie was 140 of the 180 i spent 
bro WHAT
let me see the hoodie atleast 😭
its a really heavy hoodie 
you HAVE to buy it from the jp website since everything ships out of japan

i don’t even see one listed on ebay 
what kind of mods 
i got a holy60 clone, backplate, yikb stabs, foam, pet film (and allat), stabilizer + wire pads, 2 switches 
inno64 
my first inno64
Nice keycap
thanks
i wonder how many keys itd cover if i were to make one really jank
tbh all of these are a first
just hotwheels before
got a link? Curious to see who was first to sell one because we had some incorrect listings before where they just listed v1 plates as v2
there is a option "Ships with the standard 6.25u layout by default. contact customer service if you need a split keyboard..."
ah i see so you have to ask them for the split version
yes
that's going to be annoying with taobao app, maybe i just wait for aliexpress to have it lol
is the tape mod supposed to make the space bar louder and clackier?
What is currently one of the lightest switches you can buy at the moment? (I hate replacing springs)
https://item.taobao.com/item.htm?id=1005312835238 direct link for v2 split, same shop torontoscam buys from
for pcb stabs only silver cf available for now
ah ty
the other options are plate mount stuff?
interesting that they even bother making plate mount stuff
Jabber, if you still have TB open, may i ask you to locate a listing for me for the Keyspire Nova/Star Arashi switches where it offers them in more than 10 pieces?
technically the lightest would be the melgeek x ttc 035 switch at 35gf top to bottom
Thank you
i only see a used seller selling 70 bare and 20 NiB for 399 yuan
keyspire themselves only sell the 10pc sku
70 used?
they only tried 10 switches on their board in the listing
so techically 10 are used
alright cf split plate is ordered

If you need the link
Ohh i see, well not interested in it from an individual. Appreciate your time and help for checking. This identification really made it inconvenient.
I'll check it anyway when i wake up, thanks.
Is your country one of the official taobao countries? Or you using reship?
don’t think ever been hit by the id thing before, but S Korea is one of the few official taobao supported countries
oh, did i buy the last one they had in stock without making more lol
ye you did
excellent
or maybe they hit you with the : sorry we ran out lol
oh god please no
Have the UR ice ultras arrived
yeah but im currently in japan and not china
and i cant test it till i get back to the US
bakka build gonna go crazy when i get back to the US
What else are you missing so far
Or is that it
koi switches, some foam and other sound mods
i might use this case if it doesnt work in the kbdfans gt-60
Nexus 61a pretty decent for an ultra budget PCB, all Green on laobaozi's test
Goes for 169 yuan for a full kit with fr4 plate minus switches
OUCH
It is what it is 😔 🚬
this is probably the wrong channel but it’s the only one i can find active people in, how to do i make my rgb look like it does in this video
making custom cases ain't cheap that's for sure
Can someone tell me—is a carbon fiber/FR4 plate mod worth it for the 80HE? Or is the difference too subtle to justify the cost?
And yes I know—personal preference something something.
ok i can probably get it down to $350
but if i factor in line
- 3d printing prototyping to make everything work
- getting tom to print out my fr4 plate
- buying screws and stuff from kbdfans
- etc etc.
half a grand

what are some good coiled cables for the 60he v2
i just wanna make sure i get smth that’s compatible with the 8k hz
got a budget?
nah
its one of the rgb presets in the rgb tab
like any amt?
Okay not smth crazy, let’s try to keep it under 200
ill link you a discord
their website is there too
but i reccomend going into discord and checking cable_inspo channel
since they do a lot of custom work and its probably what u should get
Appreciate it, thank you
Depends on the person. Pc vs fr4 vs cf is noticable, especially doing pc vs cf, but how much better/not better than stock it is will depend on you
Stiffness differences are also noticable so how much that matters to you depends
boy do i got the cable for you
you see
that’s exactly what i didn’t think was possible
That shit better pay my car payment or smth

praise geon, the cf split plate has shipped
so i won't be getting the 'sorry out of stock' taobao message
geon makes wooting split plates?
Lol
fair
https://commission-corner-app.fly.dev/product/prism
New 60% case IC (Whopping 4kg steel
)
Under 100usd 👀
my laptop insta crashed after clicking thst link lol
it's interesting they only did cf plate split for pcb options right now. I assume it's because it was requested by someone so they made it
and rest are still just custom order
Lmaoo
I opened it on firefox mobile no issues
btw i confirmed with wuque they said zoom64 will have plate to support both v2 and v1 60 he
however no split support initially
Oh interesting
so similar to owlabs case in that the plate will have holes for both positions
i'm still a bit skeptical on performance implications of forcing keyboard to use a usb hub though
most usb hubs usually introduce a minor amount of latency, even if the power supply is fine
ya just bad timing lol

oh yea theres one more upcoming case that is prob wooting compatible but im not 100
Designer says yes but we'll see
They didn't say anything bout the wooting v2 pcb sooo
We'll see
should be fine, i dont think wootings pcb changed drastically
Ye think so
anyone know good metal keycap websites
just a fyi
they are heavy if u are running like 40 gram switches
there is a chance that it will be held down slightly
by the keycap
yea i dont think running metal keycap would be a good idea lmao
they are not that good anyway
just run a set of cheap wob pbt
i don’t want the most used keys getting shiny like they are now
pbt dont get shine as fast or as much as abs
the wooting came with abs keycap
most pbt dont get shine for a long time
i’ve had it for like 2 years maybe
Wootings at least now are pbt no clue about 2y ago but I assume it was the same
Is there a certain budget you’re going for ?
nah they all come with abs
iirc
they sell dye sub pbt on their store
but all stock wooting come with abs
at least thats what i am looking at
but they are double shot
so i have pbt
the stock abs keycap no
my keycaps are double shot
different prebuilts have different options just fyi.
yea if it like white inside is most likely pbt
yup
for example our stock 80he ansi is indeed doubleshot pbt
so my wasd are shiny and i wanna find some keycaps that don’t do that
and feel nice and stay nice
yea if u change the keycap before
and bought something from amazon
I was gonna suggest GMK but they still shine
it most likely pbt
💀
they are 150 buck a set on avg
and they are abs
save them for nicer builds
i’ve never changed my caps, just the case, switches, and plate
you have to find brands with high pbt content, tricky thing is you never know how high pbt content each brand uses as far as shine goes
okay
oh wtf
i didnt know that lmao
if you want nice budget sets, fbb on aliexpress has an official shop that has nice cheap keycaps with thick pbt
Lmao
CRP PBT keycaps are endgame pbt but mostly just white or beige
I think keyreative has some black pbt keycaps
isnt it like
only hammerwork
is making them?
i havent kept up with caps at all
Ye hammerworks
There's cheaper dye sub options too like XMI, JC Studio
Colours even more limited tho
Oh and GMK MTNU profile is pbt so maybe that
ah a good day. TTC Horsies on the way and cf split plate at last
A happy day for all
Considering getting alu plates for 80he and gt60
I got a FR4 for my 80HE, arriving soon finally.
My GT60 Pro has Alu, but wanted FR4 too ( i really prefer after testing all of them ) ... but i don't find any available unless i get the GT60 Pro+ ... which, like ... it would be weird 😄
Do you know where we can get some GT60 plates? 🙂
or GT60 as in, the case 🙂
gt60 is only kdbfans options. If you want anything else you'd have to order from a custom plate website basically
i think he meant the gateron gt60 pcb not the case
oh
right that explains the pro stuff lol
you'll have to ask gateron folks, almost none of us have gt60 here
i'm sure there's custom plates on taobao/aliexpress though
the same shop for the split cf sells plates for gateron gt60, he just needs to search for it
lol ... dang, it's inverted
but yeah this hobby sucks
2 wootings on the right ... GT60Pro in the middle, Razer on the top left and Nuphy on the bottom left ...
just to say, i was talking about GT60Pro but of course i'm here because it all started with the wooting 60HE 😄
I‘m gonna have to buy custom plates from someone to cut them for me
Aint noone out there selling split iso 60he v2 plates with gt60 compatibility
Ahhh ok
There‘s like maybe 2 potential customers 
so you were talking about the case
yeah ... the plates for the v2
are totally different
Probably need to wait for the platefile to be released
Did you go from the v1 to the v2 (60HE) ?
yeah that's always been issue with custom plate cases. In that you get screwed if they don't offer the plate for the format you want
Nah i went straight to the v2 and replaced my venom with it pretty much
Venom build i gave to my brother
ahhh ok ...
zoom64 we've been able to get it to fit friction fit mounted at least though, but not sure how exact that fit is until i get hands on it
yeah, mine too
Also have an fr4 plate on it
Had to get a custom cause ISO
Ahhhh right
None of the ali sellers sold iso at the time
I bought an ANSI just because of keycaps shortage in Portuguese 😄
Plus a lot of them refuse to ship to germany (i have complained about this a lot already)
What?!
really ?
weird ... never had any issue shipping stuff to PT
and since its EU ... i thought it would be the same for all
My speculation on that is due to some german rule on eco friendly packaging
I could have someone order from me from the netherlands and take it over the border if i really wanted to
But its a little bit more work which means if i dont really really want something i just wont get it from ali
yeah totally and if you have someone that have a CNC machine that can do the cuts
it's more about finding the right material with the right thickness
There are services out there like hypekeyboards that specialize in it
And they can verify if everything looks good about your plate file etc before making it
Surely bowl will add the v2 standoff position to the gehirn woot plate, surelyy
Doesn’t the GT60 use the exact same standoff positions as the 60HE?
Soon™

I should honestly take a closer look at the gehirn60
But i should probably get a new ssd first
But ssd prices make me sad
Hmmmm ... actually, that's a good point 😄
Gehirn is twisting my soul man
where are these pretty please????
Yeah, I’m fairly certain you can just use 60HE plates on the GT60 but you might want to check with Gateron.
Gosh I need the ditto ones for a ditto keeb
i'll just take both apart and try it 😄
dang
i was so focused on GT60 specifics that i forgot it was a standard 60%
Standard 60% doesn’t have anything to do with plate compatibility, it’s just that Gateron copied woot’s standoff locations so that all 3rd party woot plates would be compatible with the GT60 as well. That is if I’m not misremembering.
gateron gt-60 or kbdfans
gat
oh you said it in the message above
Korea
This?
Gm
Lookin good
yup
thank you bro
icl creamy thocky marbly sounds the best
are there any creamy thocky marbly switches for he
No to the first two, maybe to the last
Okay thank you for this.
Sadly wouldn't know how to order this and get it to me.
man keytok switches are so crazy pricing after shipping
even with discount i can only get it down to 1.50 or so per switch lol
where is that from?
TB
Like their original 10 piece link?
yep
gotcha
1.43 for me, but i never really looked it on a per switch basis or in USD really
the benchmark is a dollar, so anything above is in premium territory
for example my fav switch is the ur ice ultra, i can get those down to ~$0.17 per switch
great great value
hrm i can't find that old ttc horse sound test they did
for some reason it's disappeared from their socials
only one left i could find is this one https://www.bilibili.com/video/BV1GavbBoERK/
but it's so soft in this one that i can't hear much
i also still can't find anything that says if white and black sound different or if it's purely just color
from a few random chinese tests i found i think they sound different maybe, but can't tell if it's just position in the keyboard or there's a legit different in sound for the two colors
Anyone try out ws flux deep clacky switches ?
any carbon plates for the 60hev2?
yeah but you need to use taobao and ask them to make it basically
i will try and have a look into it thank you
okay ordered some keytok nova finally
had to buy from taobao off a reseller because even their taobao official store refuses to ship to korea
was it "in外设“?
yeah
Yes, many
they run the yt channel with the same name
btw do you know what happened to the ttc horse sound test videos?
they all disappeared
even the mini short video they posted with the horses
the press release got taken down i think
so strange
yeah don't want to bother them now cause it's late
Bother em tmr
when i asked they just said different stem lol
Anyone know of some red/white keycaps? Im getting a 60he v2 module with split bar and throwing it in a red tofu 60
so i don't know what they mean by different stem, it could mean just different color stem
or it could mean different blend stem
from what i rmb from the press release there was no mention of a functional dif between the 2 colors
just that they're launching on their respective prebuilts by melgeek and angry miao
i hope it's the same because i got 36 of the black and 36 of the white, so half the keyboard will sound different if so lol
taishan gt pink finally hit aliexpress so i got some of those too
heard good things about those, but not interested in taishan, didnt pick any up myself
yeah the last taishans sounded awful so i don't hold much hope for this just cause of material change
the weird thing also is all the sound tests on bilibili are gone too
from 3rd parties
those are still there
i found only one single really bad quality one
and the rest are people just at press conference lightly pressing single switch
theres one at the press conference that switched from black to white and they sounded very similar
lm see if i can find it
this one weirds me out because i can't tell if it's different side of keyboard/mic that i'm hearing difference or if they're the same https://www.bilibili.com/video/BV15eB4BbEsY/
at end he has right with black and left with white
because his audio is so bad i'm pretty sure the difference i hear is just the mic is further on one side lol
I see, i haven't heard of that before.
I'm willing to experiment with them as long as they are good, for example the initial UFO price was insane, but turned out great so no regrets.
But ofcourse everyone has a cutoff, for example i don't think i would go higher than 150$ for 90 switches no matter what.
i just watch him for the news, this guy shills a lot and gets views so he gets a lot of stuff
i wish his audio wasn't so bad so i could tell if white or black are any different lol
from what i've seen basically all the above $1 switches tend to really suffer
it's hard to sell them in western market
they have to be really universally insane for people in western market to buy
skip to the end
yeah does some similar there
although 2 different keyboards
oh well i guess i'll find out whenever they arrive

Which reseller had Novas with more than 10 per boxes?
none
sounds similar
can't really tell with the sound outside and the fact that the keyboard is different in 2 different places.
i assume it has to be same sound because otherwise surely they would say something about white vs black material somewhere
i had my first aliexpress failed order other day, but it just was vendor took way too long to ship so i guess aliexpress got angry at them and then gave them -marks and they got angry and cancelled order after shipping
but then aliexpress just gave me money back instantly
vendor skill issue lmao
yeah not my problem, i didn't even complain lol
i just got random email from aliexpress saying they do not tolerate this behaviour and have penalised the vendor
Btw Embolia, I picked up UFOs as well :3
but does mean i have to wait another 2 weeks now to get kailh ice creams
How are the UFOs? Worth the high praise and cost ?
top tier if stability is your main concern. Mixed opinion if feel is your concern because they're vice grip level tight
sound is good, quite clean
hrm ttc said they're sending me the gift package edition of the horses whatever that means. So i think it just comes in a nicer package
Excellent, think you will love them. I have no complaints about the feel either.
I'm trialing some Novas for a few days now, they are really growing on me.
I was debating novas but
The hassle to get them is too much for me
Whereas the UFOs I just straight up ordered from their site
It is a hassle, i don't recommend it, until some seller starts providing it with good price and 80-90 packs
But it's surprisingly good, just as stable and even more quiet, pleasant sound.
keytok is doomed to be hard sell outside of niche enthusiast community
way too annoying to be at 10 packs at that pricing
It is
Sorry a bit early in the morning even for me for that kinda horse action
I'm now wondering what else to get, what were all the new switches? horses and what else?
gateron should have some soon
with their mag lev switch and possibly full pom jade ultra
not buying any gateron, anything else?
and ttc have a quiet switch that is still in the works
prolly this
that was supposed to launch awhile ago
thats horses or something else Jabber?
ah maybe
horsie
all i know is it adds up to 36 white and 36 black horses lol
But i swear i recall we had several new switches a few weeks ago showcased, nothing else released yet?
@humble surge I'm trying to remember where we talked before. Either diablo or path of exile
You mean other Discord?
Yup
it always comes in waves with switches
anyone tried the new TTC Flip KOM ?
we'll get nothing new for a bit then suddenly one wave of switches comes out
I have no idea, i don't have any Diable or PoE Discords
they're in the switch database already
oh
they're basically ttc kom but now actually lubed from factory, so sound is improved
I get the waves, but what else released alongside Horses in the last month?
i looked at it last week and didn't see it ... maybe i was crosseye'd already 😄
i'M ready to test more
ttc 'released' switches but didn't release them
yeah it was
there's some extra mods i think, on the rails iirc
but that one actually got released right away, but not huge amount of hype because it's literally just ttc kom but lubed in sound/feel
you're thinking of the horses
Passable then? you already tested?
yeah they're already sound tested in the database
yeah okay then, i'll skip those
they're the best ttc switch out right now because it's actually lubed from factory, but it's nothing amazing over the other top switches like wuque deep clack etc
i'm expecting horses will dethrone them but that's just guessing until mine arrive
Whats the consensus on switches rn, still wuque dc at the top?
Thats okay, i guess i'll just get horses
in general yeah, still wuque at top for overall switch
but new wave is incoming so we'll see
I wanted to order a sample of XVX Snows and Pink Lotuses aswell, but i have to wait a few days, but it's better to get all of this before Chinese New Year, wouldn't want to wait until late March or May for silly shipments.
I wanna try it, they seemed interesting for months
Jed, thoughts on sending me everything you have extra in exchange for eternal gratitude?
here's a list of most of the switches in a tier list by some guy on bili
hrm i'm not sure eternal gratitude is enough
2 entire eternal gratitudes then
but i also don't have much extra stuff lol
i usually just order 35 or so, so not even for full board unless i think it's something special

Share the goop sir
Man, i don't know Chinese sadly ... i can recognize 1 in the S Tier 😄
is that melgeek zero switch at top?
A tier
tikken is NPC lmao
npc is basically mid
or A Tier... some show S tier, others A ... 😄
I know some people who dislike tikkens
what is the pause switch
Lovely, my GMK Dune got cancelled. Damn rats.
Ultimately its preference
kailh's new switch
ah
tikkens are fine but i think super enthusiast HE folk won't like them because they're not min/max for stability nor the sharp sound
their only encapsulated mag switch, but not decoupled like the polars
so baiscally kailh's flip koms
ah so it's kailhs version of the fully closed
What's the 嘤嘤 switch
new new switch that has barely any coverage, was selling on douyin for 0.3 yuan
Wow mad cheap
yea and apparently is solid too
Any info on that?
msrp is 0.4 yuan i think
Like materials and stuff
nope
I see
only 1 vid on bili
i'm still waiting for the other version of ttc fully enclosed
ehh, hard to trust, at least it's very cheap
the one that's not just the stem but whole structure
the current flip kom are just improved sound but that's it mostly for me
rest still feels like standard kom switch
i'm curious if their other one feels different since it's whole structure changed
Not my ss
Do we have horsie link?
they're selling on TB now
horsies are already on ttc official stores
both aliexpress and english site
their red one they haven't shown any photo of, i assume it's their 'quiet' switch
not buying from Ali, unreasonably priced, sticking to TB if i can
Blue laser emissions identified 😆
嘤嘤made by aiguoxin which also made the phylinas
Jabber can i get the horsies TB link? then i'll leave you alone for a while.
Been trying to actively resolve the ID issue, but not much progress so far.
It's been rather annoying not being able to browse TB since December and having to ask for links.
are those kailh fully sealed for sale yet? I haven't seen them on kailh's store
Quite expensive 💀
yeah their year of the x switches are always crazy pricy
at least $1 a switch normally
they were a few days back, but they go in and out periodically
It's okay, Nova pricing
Much appreciated drip
o7
Now just to figure out what are the version differences and what i want to get lol
just 3: basic, serialized and rgb
og is if you feel like spending extra $100
No i mean like understanding what are their differences
So theres New Year Edition and OG it seems
og is literally just "i want the limited number on my switch" basically
and a horseshoe on top
Pictures showed something changing internally, so idk how accurate that is
nah no difference internally
this shows it better
basically OG is number + horseshoe, limited new year is horseshoe and rgb is just the switch as normal
Hmm weird, i only see two versions on this link
scroll down until you see the full diagrams
first one is og, second limited new year edition, third is normal rgb
the red text is what is 'special' for the 2 special ones
gm and ty im definitely getting the coloredcolored accents
couldn't decide if I wanted the novelties or the accents for this set
I mean't theres only two on the TB link, i saw the bilibili differences
ah, yeah some tb stores only sell certain ones as it's limited stock right now
even ttc didn't have enough to just send me a full pack of one, so that's why i ended up with 36 black and 36 white lol
I guess their main site is showing only RGB and OG differences with pictures showing differing internals, like that red is completely missing and side by side you can see some other pieces looking different aswell.
I don't know if i trust that means it will feel/sound and behave the same.
they do this every year
it's the same thing
it's their thing when it comes to new chinese calender year switches
it's always a regular version then some special editions that sound the same but have cosmetic stuff like numbering
But i guess for the sake of completeness i would want OGs and RGBs and then to compare, both on both colors.
i mean you could but it's way pricier lol
except .(
like ttc still hold record for most expensive switches with their og
literally $200 level
Never got the special numbering and codes on switches. Is that a big thing in china?
5 pieces each, doesn't matter
Yeah to test
china has understood that collectors like to collect lol
no need to get 360 switches without knowing more first
You guys should've done special numbered heist. Missed opportunity
ah shit i misremembered, the Rests were by Huano not Kailh
Did they send you 36-36 OGs? i can't find RGB anywhere
Oh for sure you should if you're going dualshot. I'm not a big novelty guy but accent colors? 🙂↕️ 🙂↕️ 🙂↕️
evil ahh switch
Same thing just different advertising?
just rgb as far as i know
it's blurry so i can't see well, but i assume it's rgb since i don't see a horseshoe on top
i wasn't really bothered though since i don't want to request any limited editions anyway, they barely have enough to send to influencers right now i think
yeah im going to get dual shot 2 set first then sno ps1994 set later (safer choice buying from deskhero than aliexpress)
really reminded me of these duo lmao.
Idk, it shows plenty in stock for OG and CNY version, but if it truly means no difference then who cares
Can't find any RGB tho
the reason I want the novelties is for the r4 controller themed row
So is this just black horse with different advertising?
it's black horse but better lighting lol
or worse lighting depending on how you look at it
looks cooler though
just serialized black horses, the year of the horse keeb is limited to 2026 units
Looks more evil for sure
okay cool, cause i saw that collab on that bilibili page, but that was a little unclear due to the differing advert aesthetic
i'm fairly sure their rgb are new, as in they made the og/ny version first and now are making more rgb since it's the non limited one
I guess i come back to these in a few days, Aliexpress still processing 3 refunds and i need to find RGB version sourcing
rgb i think they only just started stocking because ttc were supposed to send me some awhile back but only just got stock to send me
honestly i think they're making so much stuff that they're at max capacity trying to make all these sku right now
that's how it seems since they're so behind on the switches they announced even, like the ttc kom v2 full enclosed and silent switch
Does anybody have a suggestion for a nice usb c to c cable? Doesn't need to be 8k compatible since this is for other thing. Budget around ~$100 pref shipping around Asia.
Why not the wiredin one
hmm
He has c to c option
I forgot about that site lmao, thanks for the reminder.
good reminder, knobs need to hurry up
Knobs soon
What are some good HE switches right now
tagged you with some Nova feedback a few days back as you asked, you saw?
Yeah
new banner reminded me of mandelbrot
or like almost AI generated due to how even and repetitive everything is
