[little glen]

something in between is usually kinda meh

tho i dont really mind it on the gt80 for example

[mossy river]

how are switches even added to the switch selector?

who decides when they are added

[cyan lark]

Well that depends. Are you a nerd of faith?

[tropic urchin]

Kinda reminds me of Miami nights I fw it

[cyan lark]

Those iem art plates aren’t swappable?

Pricey pokemon cards 😰

[tropic urchin]

Why would you wanna swap out perfection

[glacial wind]

They’re added based on popularity

We make a list of popular switches and basically add them in batches right now

[mossy river]

oh

lucky that my magneto rgb there

[glacial wind]

Incoming batch will be jade ultra and a few other current popular ones like Wuque deep clack, mmd c1, etc, then batch after will be the recent wave of switches like ttc flip, ttc horse, ufo, whatever else comes out in the next month

[mossy river]

god

i havent been keeping track of magnetic switches

been out of the know for half a year

0 idea what ANY of those switches are

💔

like what even is the ufo

[sacred elm]

Gravastar UFO

[mossy river]

does the switch selector just change the range, or is it actually measured for calibration data?

[mossy river]

do we know the manu

they look interesting

[cyan lark]

Measured

[mossy river]

cool

by who?

[sacred elm]

by one of the Wooting team members

[mossy river]

[boreal dust]

I can’t seem to get the module unscrewed in the 60HE+ any help?

going for a case swap

[sullen kiln]

what are good stabs for the 60he v2 because im having really bad rattling and wobbling 😢

[sacred elm]

Stock

https://youtu.be/vxHb6CJc9V8

[sullen kiln]

but when i push on my left/right side, it wobbles like a seesaw

[fallen narwhal]

This can apply for wooting right

I swear this will be the last thing I ask here

💔

[sullen kiln]

yes. that's why he sent it, for rattling on the wooting stabs

[glass dragon]

Factory stabs w/extra lube had no wobble for me, but the top-out ping they make is awful to my ears

First stab was stock lubed, second was staebies lubed

[robust siren]

crismis

[robust siren]

you need stem spacers

[sullen kiln]

can you recommend me where to find some, im in canada, and how to fix a hollow sounding spacebar, and what to put in the little bottom slivers 😃 .. sorry for asking a lot of questions, im new to this stuff

[robust siren]

you can try foam in the spacebar, as to where for canada im not sure

but its called geon stem spacers

[sullen kiln]

alr thx ill look around

[sullen kiln]

https://geon.works/products/geon-stem-spacer?variant=45263328379043 found some here, 0.5 mm and 0.4, does it matter which ones

[robust siren]

this website ships from korea

it might be expensive

[robust siren]

.5mm is most common iirc

[sullen kiln]

divinikey sold out, will keep looking

[sullen kiln]

😭 $7 cad for the spacers, $100 shipping on deltakey

[robust siren]

aw hell nah wtf

[sullen kiln]

$43 in total from geon.works, better than $100

damn hotcakes, sold out everywhere

[robust siren]

check if its on aliexpress

[sullen kiln]

16 in total off ali, w

forgot ab that site

[robust siren]

still quite a bit but it is what it is

[sullen kiln]

i just want my spacebar to sound great, the rest of the keyboard does

i remember buying spacebar foam before and it would either just fall out or block the stab holes

[robust siren]

i cut my own foam for it

but now i use split so i dont need spacebar foam

[sullen kiln]

i was gonna get split but if i couldn't get 'used' to it id be screwed, my thumb placement isnt consistent

[glacial wind]

wait, pricing for this zoom64 is great

[chilly mural]

how much?

[glacial wind]

Reposting - you guys with splits need to go vote if you want the split plate option. They're considering adding it now:

Zoom64 Case Kit + 63 Flux switches (Babao Switches) From $125
Zoom64 Case Kit from $79
Zoom64 Barebone Kit from $115
(Note: The acrylic version will not be available at this launch.)

And we are currently gathering interest for a split spacebar layout plate! If you would like to see this layout supported in the future, please fill out the survey and share it with your friends!

[chilly mural]

holy fuck that's good

[glacial wind]

go vote yes if you want a split plate option

[chilly mural]

already immediately

[glacial wind]

babao is the ocean whisper isn't it?

it's also a chance for folks to get ocean whisper switches reasonably priced if so

[chilly mural]

is it friction mount compat?

[glacial wind]

we tested it internally and yeah it is. It's not 100% perfect fit but like 95% works

[chilly mural]

good enough

[fallen pecan]

ocean whisper not mentioned, babao is just flux in the CN market

but if the babao60he kit is the full set it should come with whispers

[glacial wind]

that will be very popular here if they offer both split plate and ocean whisper switches as a kit

especially at that price

[fallen pecan]

ye the 60he with switches go for 1299 yuan ~ 190 usd

[glacial wind]

i think i could easily see it become the new default modders pick for a lot of folks if case + set of ocean whisper switches is really just $125

[fallen pecan]

theyre selling 64pc off of boards for like 399 yuan the cheapest ive seen

[glacial wind]

do you have a link to ocean whisper reseller on taobao?

i might try grab a few to check if magnet is the same as deep clack

[cloud crane]

Cheapest I've seen the flux60 pcb offered is 40 bucks for pcb only (in a gb tho)

[ionic breach]

oh my lord

[glacial wind]

wuque are always so goated with color options honestly

[ionic breach]

bro why does 60 get everything man

this reminds me of the nothing phone design actually

[sacred elm]

If there was no knob version, maybe

[cloud crane]

Hope wuque improves their qc lol

[ionic breach]

the variety is actually steller

it seems like they are planning to actually do most of them, seeing that its a general ic and not per colour

[glacial wind]

they've always had really big variety for their colors. Even when they say they subject to interest they often end up doing most of them

[random dagger]

Is fr4 or cf better in terms of sound for raptor v2s?

[glacial wind]

totally personal preference

[broken notch]

My new switches arrive in the next hour

[random dagger]

i have to take my kb apart

this time i will stick the fluxes on the fr4 plate and call it a day

[robust siren]

would the case require this specific plate to work

or can you get away with using a normal plate like on a gt-60

[glacial wind]

If you want their gasket mounting then need their plate

But it does seem to fit friction fit, although maybe not 100% perfect fit

[mental gyro]

For the people that opened their 60 v2 did you manage to unscrew the mid bottom screw without damaging the tape?

[glacial wind]

Yeah just flip the tape up a tad

do it gently and you should be fine

[mental gyro]

I may or may not want to return so I don't wanna damage it

Need to get out my custom switches lol

If I damage the tape I'm fucked can't return it right? 😵‍💫

[glacial wind]

Huh? What would return have to do with tape mod

Also I’m confused why are you unscrewing this for switch changing

oh i see you're testing stuff, yeah just be aware even changing switches perfectly will leave marks on plate and such

just the nature of tight fitting things into material. Plates develop scuffs and marks every time you swap switches

[mental gyro]

I put in owlabs basically and removing them with the switch puller is nigh impossible so I wanna disassemble

[broken notch]

Here we go!

[mental gyro]

But I'm also potentially looking to return the keyboard without my 30 day window

So I'm kinda cooked maybe cus there way to do it "undamaged"

I think at least

[glacial wind]

might be able to push them out from plate if you disassemble everything, but even that leaves marks on the inside normally

[mental gyro]

I even asked support if I could return it with owlabs and take a loss, but they kinda said no

Understandable

[mental gyro]

Shittt

[glacial wind]

plates just naturally get scuffed a bit

[mental gyro]

Ye but I assume that voids my return cus well it's damaged

[glacial wind]

you'd have to ask support about that, i'm not fully sure on the rules there as I don't work in that department

[mental gyro]

I'll ask it back ye

Hey guys, maybe a stupid question, but are the tikken switches compatible with the lekker switch pring packs? And if so, does it negatively impact their sound/ performance? I finally would like to go for an upgrade from my lekker45 v1's and havent found good alternatives that are both light, sound good/have minimal wobble and dont completely break the bank

[mint frigate]

What switches would sound best with a CF plate on a 80he?

[little glen]

depends what sound you want to achieve

[mint frigate]

Loud clack, marbly

[rough hedge]

never tried it, but people have mentioned that regular WS flux are loud and clacky.
Ive tried TTC snow on FR4 and its also loud and clacky

[sacred elm]

Go listen to sound tests in the database https://link.wooting.io/soundtests

new switches for switch selector

[cyan lark]

👁️ 👄 👁️

[sacred elm]

[broken notch]

No UFO yet :c

[cyan lark]

Tremendous ✨

[sacred elm]

UFO is next batch afaik

[little glen]

when is wooting adding my custom switches i made out of glue and shoe polish

[cyan lark]

Oh also had to remove the spacer on the regular keys

[little glen]

would be cool if you implemented a tool that could automatically update the switch selector with minimal developer input using just the top down picture and the measurements

[broken notch]

Oh! Exciting!

[little glen]

over the air updates as new switches come out and get measured 🤯

[ionic breach]

just make it connect to ur Shop app and auto update to whatever u bought as soon as it gets delivered

[little glen]

what

[rough hedge]

just switched to UFOs and they didnt make the cut

[little glen]

not what i was saying

[ionic breach]

yea ik lol, just made me think of it

[little glen]

i feel like my idea seems a lot more reasonable and doesnt require accessing outside tools + uncertainty if people actually use what they buy

[uneven cradle]

Thing is each switch needs to be measured since manufacturers aren't providing accurate measurements on their listings

[ionic breach]

just a tad

[little glen]

yeah thats why i said "using the picture and the measurements"

[uneven cradle]

Right well that's the most difficult part I'd imagine of adding a switch

[little glen]

of course someone needs to measure them but after that it seems possible to plug the data in and create the object to put into the selector

[uneven cradle]

Given Wooting I believe has already beaten every other brands switch selector options in volume and it's still in beta

[rigid raptor]

Thread is dead 💀

[little glen]

not surprising considering wooting is one of like 2 manufacturers that dont abandon their product after a few months

[quick finch]

thats not how any of this works

[little glen]

[tropic urchin]

I might’ve gone a little crazy with reacting but I’m not sorry

[little glen]

i know that its a lot more involved right now as (from what i know) the measurements have been done for a while for this new batch and they only just got implemented due to what i assume is developer overhead or other priorities going first

[tropic urchin]

Best marbly CF option imo is the deep clack flux

[candid shell]

What is UFO

[broken notch]

Uh, a very expensive keycap :p

Wtf did I say

Switch

Not keycap

[oak jewel]

https://www.gravastar.com/products/gravastar-ufo-magnetic-switch-hall-effect-gaming-switches

[broken notch]

Mind drifted

They sound really good to my ears

[sacred elm]

@quasi hinge the final piece for your 80HE mate

[glacial wind]

Go forth my deep clack brothers. The new beta update is live and you can now switch selector the following new switches:

• Gateron Jade Ruby
• Gateron Jade Ultra
• Gateron Spark
• Geon Raptor HE V2
• MMD C1
• Owlab Ti HE
• PHYLINA Thunderflash White
• UR Ice Ultra
• Wuque Studio - Flux (Deep Clacky)

[humble surge]

Try 150$ for 87 of them, 80$ instead is a steal 🙃

[tropic urchin]

I took a nap and the whole world changed type shii

but ive been abducted by aliens from the deep clack church. 🛸

Flux church is happy

[uneven cradle]

When rawhuks

[tropic urchin]

Based on popularity ☝️🤓

[uneven cradle]

I guess it would be the same as raw hes but the bottom housing wouldn't match!

[chilly mural]

Yay, now my keyboard is slightly more accurate.

[hearty slate]

i don't know who recommended me the mmd c1 but i absolutely love them they are way way better than stock lekkers

[glacial wind]

you'll have to wait for round 3 in a month or so

[pliant tinsel]

So ufo switches in the beta in like 1 month or so?

[glacial wind]

maybe. It's the next batch but how long that will take not sure because 3rd batch i'm including really new switches that might become popular, such as ufo, ttc horses, ttc flip, gateron mag lev (if they release it?)

so it will take time as i don't even have the ttc horses yet while it's still in the mail

[pliant tinsel]

Would be pretty cool tho

[humble surge]

Might have to wait til end of month to get the Horses, hopefully can get them still in time before everything shuts down for CNY

[uneven cradle]

https://tenor.com/view/horse-man-drunk-carrying-a-horse-horse-off-my-back-gif-14129445822980753743

[glacial wind]

i think lots of folks should be happy with this 2nd batch at least though since we cover basically all the meta switches now

[humble surge]

Which was that switch a while back, like oct-nov that provided a tactile feel?

[uneven cradle]

Wooting be cookin

[pliant tinsel]

I bet flux church is kicking their feets right now

Id be too

[glacial wind]

there's a few tactile switches. Gateron has one, the tecsee and raeds also count as semi tactile

[humble surge]

it might have been the gateron, what is that one called?

[glacial wind]

jade emerald

[humble surge]

allright

[fluid ravine]

Silver and black are nice

White not so much

Red is valid cus there are key caps that can match it pretty well

[pliant tinsel]

Someone knows where i can get nice keycaps for like 20-30 euros ?

[ionic breach]

wooting's own

[pliant tinsel]

Aint they 40 ?

The PBT ones

[ionic breach]

not when u buy with keyboard

[pliant tinsel]

stock 60he plus comes with PBT ?

yes

[pliant tinsel]

[glacial wind]

wuque has a more detailed page on zoom64 configs and such it seems

ocean whisper not an option it seems

og flux, deep clack flux and that pink lotus one

[little glen]

oh the case comes with switches

interesting

if you take official ws pricing on the flux that would make the case free

[glacial wind]

if you opt for it yeah, there's a bare case option

i don't think i'll get the switch option though since no ocean whispers

i don't need more other flux switches lol

[little glen]

what switches do you think i should try on my 80he with fr4 plate

i originally wanted to buy a new ssd but prices made me decide not to

so i got some money to throw around

maybe ill also just get an alu plate for both the 80he and 60he v2

[glacial wind]

horsies are the most interesting new ones for me, because of their weird interior addition things

[little glen]

hmmm

[glacial wind]

that and it's ttc doing round stem he for first time

[little glen]

rn i only have tikkens and i like that they are full travel but maybe ill give something else a shot too

[glacial wind]

i wonder how many responses they got on the wooting split plate form

[little glen]

i wonder how long itll take wooting to release the split iso plate file

i need it to get my custom plate for the gt60

[glacial wind]

i've requested it a few times now, but i think issue is there's no official procedure for cleaning up the file and publishing it, so it's been pushed to the side while people responsible for it are busy

[little glen]

do ttc really make you spend 50% more for a tiny serial number on the switch

[glacial wind]

yes

[little glen]

[sacred elm]

"clip clop sound"

[cyan lark]

I cannot wait to find out where clip-clop sound falls on the marble/cream/thock/squish sound diamondd

[glacial wind]

what i'm curious about is why they removed all their previous videos of it

the horse mini short video they released is gone and they took down some other announcements of it

[little glen]

how are they so expensive on ali

[glacial wind]

it's always expensive, even if you buy taobao direct

their year of x stuff is always their most expensive switches basically

[little glen]

oh they just have the og version

[glacial wind]

yeah look for rgb version for lowest price, but it may be sold out/restocking

[tropic urchin]

Clip clop KOMPOM

[glacial wind]

it goes og > cny > rgb for pricing

so rgb is the most 'sane' pricing

[little glen]

not seeing it but ali search sucks anyway and lots of sellers wont ship to me

hmm i found some but they dont seem to be great price either

probably expected

what is this "built in sound package"

their marketing images are kinda funny tbh

[trail bane]

OG

[little glen]

the sound of hooves is coming

[lucid juniper]

clip clopf

[cyan lark]

Is this a threat

[little glen]

it's just cut off and the horseshoe icons next to the text

[trail bane]

So to speak Usb-C extension for gh60 PCB’s is already available with gehirn GB

[little glen]

the snail that kills you if it touches you but it has hooves for some reason

[glacial wind]

basically they added a few pieces inside the housing to fill in certain gaps

[hearty slate]

can someone recommend me where to buy good keycaps on eu? not too expensive

[little glen]

pick 2 of the 3

good and eu is easy but itll be expensive, cheap and good not that difficult but it wont be eu, cheap and eu exists too but they wont be good

than good and eu (italy)

[maiden storm]

Anybody know if there is anyway to get a hold of the Wooting 60HE v2 switchplate platefile?

[cyan lark]

The files have not been released yet

[polar agate]

Hi, im fighting with my stabilizers for months and still cant make them sound good. Are the geon balanced wires as good as people say? Should I try them?

[maiden storm]

Any idea on when they usually are released?

[cyan lark]

They said are a little gun shy this time around after getting their designs ripped off, so I don’t know.

[maiden storm]

Damn it........................

[chilly mural]

dont blame em, blame the coppier.

and people who encaurage it cause 'wooting too expensive'.

[maiden storm]

Not blaming them, I understand you don't want your design copied without credit or royalties. But it sure would be nice to be able to change sounds on my 60HE V2 other than just changing cases, bottom dampening layers and switches...

[chilly mural]

could prop look for aliexpress/taobao, there should be some plate that's compatible.

[maiden storm]

Haven't found anything for V2... I know that the current 60he switch plate on their website is not compatible due to conflicting with the friction fit layer. If you were to remove the friction fit pad and go full tray mount instead, would it then be possible to use the switch plate kit?

[stark osprey]

Where do you guys go for custom made plates? Im aware of Torontokeyboardman.ca as well as Hypekeyboards. Are there any others? Preferrably NA based?

[cyan lark]

I would think so but I haven't tried it and don't know for sure

[tropic urchin]

its those two or aliexpress generally

could probably find someone in NA but thats going to be very niche and locally driven imo

[stark osprey]

Ok cool thanks, I did find this just now too , and they appear to be about an hour from me incase anyone else was interested: https://cbbplanet.com/products/custom-plates .

[glacial wind]

taobao vendors have them now, but you have to request for split versions (and also for pcb stabiliser mount versions)

https://item.taobao.com/item.htm?id=1005312835238&mi_id=0000F-blfCbuDvubd4FaKY3CnARzVDyoFS3nSKYpWaDverw is the one i bought from recently. The only ones left in stock are all plate mount stabs only though

[autumn temple]

Is there a noticeable enough difference going from springs that are 35g to 50g versus 45g to 60g. Initial to bottom out

[cyan lark]

Think about it this way: 35 -> 50 is 70% increase

[sacred elm]

🤯

[tropic urchin]

Considering the initial force is basically the same as the bottom out of the other spring set, I’d say it’s a pretty big difference. Whether you’ll like one more than the other I can’t say, you’ll need to try it.

[autumn temple]

The UR Ice Ultra switches I currently use are 35g to 50g and its too light

So the 45g to 60g would be the next step up

Isnt 45g to 60g like the average mechanical switch force

[tropic urchin]

thats what others have said in the past iirc

[autumn temple]

I just looked it up and it says so

[tropic urchin]

try it, you might like it more

[autumn temple]

Yeah I will

The switches are already 3.4mm so less travel distance than the full 4mm the last thing I would want is the springs to be lighter

Im okay with a 3.4/3.5 mm total travel but I think the lightness of the switch ruins it

[maiden storm]

Cant even create an account on the site, not available in sweden xD

[glacial wind]

yeah taobao is a nightmare to use

i avoid it at all costs unless it's an exception and i have to use it lol

Just swapped my plate and now I can’t screw the pcb back to it

[sacred elm]

did you install standoffs

[barren olive]

No; I just assumed I’d be able to just screw it back in and kind of work backwards from disassembly

It’s my first time swapping plates

how much should i spend on lbwk today

[fluid ravine]

Yem

[fluid ravine]

Ho2 much u got

uhhhhhhhhhhh

[robust siren]

yes

[fluid ravine]

[fluid ravine]

Yes

[quasi hinge]

Ty for this

[quasi hinge]

I think I need to try

Has anyone tried these ufo switches

[sacred elm]

Yeah, sno and some others. They're very stable

I might grab them at some point

[quasi hinge]

Oh nice

I think I might get them also, was hoping they weren’t gimmicky

[robust siren]

rate the wallpaper

well it depends if i wanna get another hoodie or not

[tropic urchin]

now lets see the 45g variant

[robust siren]

idk how hard it is buying LBWK in the big US of A

[tulip rapids]

but they heavy bruh

[mental gyro]

Dumbo question, if I remove the plate from the 60v2 to remove switches. Do I just push the switch from the back? The YouTube video still does the same from the front.

Or like do I push and pull the switch at the same time?

[fluid ravine]

If you need to

[mental gyro]

Ok but it should just get out with a normal push at the back?

Pulling it with the switch puller is shit so I'm just making sure the "push it from the back" thing is easily done. The YouTube video doesn't even push from the back lol

[fluid ravine]

You can take out the swictehs with a switch puller normally but if you're having difficulties then yes you can take out the plate and use a switch puller to take out the switches while pushing the switch from the back

[quasi hinge]

Any idea who makes these

[quasi hinge]

These

I dont think Gravastar has a factory lol

[mental gyro]

Ok so both push and pull

Alright

[clear topaz]

how do i make the wooting sound more creamier

i have the l60s

for free

im broke

[sacred elm]

No clue

[tropic urchin]

probably heijin

everything is made by heijin

[fluid ravine]

Gotta start my own factory

Lubing factory and a switch factory

These damn switches ain't good enuf

[tropic urchin]

make some marbly and poppy nylon and POM switches and i'll give you some $

[fluid ravine]

I gotchu bub

Pop and clack

[quasi hinge]

What other switches do they make

I dont know much about the origin stories lol

[tropic urchin]

they were the manu for alot of the early and current switches (most of which you've probably used or heard of atp)

primarily the trad MX stem ones

[sacred elm]

nah, hejin isn't the manu of ufo

[tropic urchin]

ruining my fun smh

[quasi hinge]

Maybe they are dropped off here from zeta reticuli every so often

[tropic urchin]

watchout for the tracer mercury king, they testing you

Also wondering how well that flat cable goes, could be a normal thing for cases going forward to get that mid usb layout

[tropic urchin]

80HE case when

[stray tiger]

I'm using that same flat cable on my Sebas FE that I converted to HE and I've had no issues

Speaking of cool ass cases coming soon

I still have two keyboards coming
Can't be affording any more atm, plus with the camera I just picked up 💸

Random Q and likely early… but has anyone heard any rumors of bringing the split spacebar to the 80he? (I guess 80he V2 or so)

[fluid ravine]

da hail

did calder accidently leak this

[quasi hinge]

Nah, I just want the split spacebar in my lazar 80he

[fluid ravine]

oh lmao

[quasi hinge]

The split spacebar is great for the game I play

Keybinding combos etc

Slide reload etc

The 60he v2 split is fantastic

But I want it in my 80he case and form factor

[quasi hinge]

Then technically it would be 85 keys

[fluid ravine]

more stabs xd

[quasi hinge]

Round up and voila, 90he

lulz

[fluid ravine]

lowkey split killed me when i found out i needed more stabs and stab wires

7u and split backspace and shift could never

[quasi hinge]

#worthit

[fluid ravine]

lul

i am still wondering why i barely use my wooting

[quasi hinge]

Do you have the split v2?

[fluid ravine]

yur

at the top

[quasi hinge]

I use them on my gaming rig

[fluid ravine]

honestly at this point its a display piece

[quasi hinge]

Only keeb I use

The split keys are great for combos

[solid geode]

which keyboard is that ?

[fluid ravine]

im like switching from my venom and neo65 when gaming and like doing casual stuff

[fluid ravine]

which one?

nvm ima just list top to bottom

[quasi hinge]

Maybe because of limited keycaps?

[solid geode]

that top one

[fluid ravine]

Top keyboard- Wooting 60HE v2
Middle- Frog Mini Leggera with Venom
Bottom- Neo65

[fluid ravine]

nah just not a big fan of my build

well, yeah ig you can count keycaps

and switches...

[solid geode]

I just ordered wooting 60he + for cs2

[fluid ravine]

im out of proper stock switches

all of my switches are frakensteined

[quasi hinge]

Handling too many ladies

[fluid ravine]

im just waiting on a new release that really catches my eyes

[quasi hinge]

Stick to one hahaha

[solid geode]

i see haikyuu fan me to

[fluid ravine]

indeed..

[fluid ravine]

hehe yessirrr

stacking up on volleyballs for my school team for our next season rn

[fluid ravine]

i got a mikasa and molten displayed on my shelves

[quasi hinge]

This was the one I got for our squadmate

We all play in the dark

[fluid ravine]

haha

naice

[calm pulsar]

ever since I built my 80he with gt80 and astrolinks I never touched anything modding
stock stabs, stock plate lol

[quasi hinge]

Hence no issue with keycaps

[fluid ravine]

as simple as that

lit

im impatiently waiting on my vella for my forg

im a liar, said i was gonna upgrade my wooting but naaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

im throwing

[quasi hinge]

Wooting turned me into the whole keyboard modding scene

Switching would be like cheating on a wife

I just cant

Hoping for 80he split

[solid geode]

guy's anyone heard of wooting 80he Tenz takeover

[fluid ravine]

yup

[polar girder]

Sheeeesh

[fluid ravine]

quick with it as well

saw the ping and immediately hopped over

my goat

but not that interested

except for those RAPID GRIPPERS iykyk

[quasi hinge]

I had to change stabs because one brand was the only one that fit the silver cf playe

[polar girder]

Astrolink? Tell me more.

[cloud crane]

Akko astrolink

[fluid ravine]

HMX x Akko collab

[quasi hinge]

I bought like 5 boxes of stabs

[polar girder]

He lives.

[calm pulsar]

its that same switch as geon raptor v2s

[cloud crane]

Wooting ergo when

[fluid ravine]

but without the friction issue eh?

[calm pulsar]

perfect for me tbh, didnt even bother installing fluxes that I got lol

[calm pulsar]

I had one key like that and I just replaced the switch with a spare or rebuilt it

[fluid ravine]

lowkey i think i would prefer the sound profile or feeling of the astro link over fluxes

[fluid ravine]

mm

[fluid ravine]

hollup

[calm pulsar]

yeah it's all I ever wanted jade knights to be

[fluid ravine]

yesssssss

[polar girder]

Damn. Now I want to try

[fluid ravine]

i remmeber jade knights

[quasi hinge]

Lurk now more, built end game but then V2 split came out

[polar girder]

My problem is I refuse to take these KOM’s out of alu plate

[fluid ravine]

im waiting for a DUHRAWKEN successor

[polar girder]

So need new plate for new switch install lol

[fluid ravine]

damn you still have koms?!

[cloud crane]

I'm waiting for UR ICE R2

[fluid ravine]

i forgor

[polar girder]

Yeah bro. They fk

Heavily

I have Tikkens too but haven’t tried them out yet

[calm pulsar]

@polar girder any upgrades to your headphones? I was thinking of getting some higher end open backs lol

[polar girder]

Tempted by the UFO switch

[cloud crane]

DMS Omega

[quasi hinge]

I asked wooting to remove the tikkens so I could get my v2 split faster lol

[fluid ravine]

sno told me about how they have friction cus of the stem tolerance

told us*

[polar girder]

Rocking 490 Pro’s on a JDS Labs Element

[fluid ravine]

but some peopel dont mind them

[polar girder]

Haven’t changed in a bit

[quasi hinge]

Thank you for the tip!

[fluid ravine]

like stem tolerance is good i heard just not sure about the friction maybeh

[polar girder]

Huh haven’t heard that problem yet

Only heard good things so far

[quasi hinge]

I was going to buy them but hellll naww on friction

[fluid ravine]

yea

[quasi hinge]

How bad is it?

[quasi hinge]

I had that issue on some switches before

[fluid ravine]

i can't sya

say

i dont have em

nor do i want them

i dont think you can open them up and lube them

the housing designs aint normal

[polar girder]

@calm pulsar only other headphone I care to buy in the future is 800S

[fluid ravine]

def made by an alien

[quasi hinge]

Damn, they would have been great on my ufo 80he build

Dodged a bullet

[calm pulsar]

ah its those hella priced ones?

[polar girder]

Can get used 800S for like $800 but yeah

[quasi hinge]

It comes with a custom switch opener

[fluid ravine]

couldve

[fluid ravine]

oh really/

[quasi hinge]

https://www.gravastar.com/products/gravastar-ufo-magnetic-switch-hall-effect-gaming-switches?variant=47246414512373

[fluid ravine]

well guess you can open it then

weird ah switch

[polar girder]

Yeah where thockson getting this intel

[fluid ravine]

lul im just going based on visuals

[quasi hinge]

Checking

[fluid ravine]

it looks weird af

[polar girder]

Bro is sus maxxing

[fluid ravine]

haha

[polar girder]

Thockson doesn’t fuck with the ufo switches haha

[fluid ravine]

nop

[polar girder]

Nah I’m jk but good to know

[fluid ravine]

i do but i dont

oh @quasi hinge nvm i think i see where the clips are

it should be openable

stem rail on the bottom housing

near the buckle clips

[quasi hinge]

I have no idea

You could be right

[quasi hinge]

It requires a custom switch puller though

[fluid ravine]

yeah def need a custom opener

dunno whats up with the designs but sure ig

[polar girder]

Yeah my only next curiosity for keyboard is buy fr4 plate and the keysnaps and try it with Tikkens

@fluid ravine

Want to try the Keysnap mount in frog mini

[fluid ravine]

oo keysnaps im curious about as well

ngl im not a big fan of fr4

on benom

personally

[quasi hinge]

I want to put them in my build but dont want to risk 140$ to 160$ with shipping etc only to get F’d by friction

[polar girder]

Damn

[fluid ravine]

and i dont remember the reason why

LMAO

[polar girder]

Should I just get another alu? Lol

[fluid ravine]

only thought that runs in my head

ion like fr4 just cus

[polar girder]

Need to buy new plate to try keysnap mount

[fluid ravine]

what kind of plate?

[polar girder]

lol fair

[fluid ravine]

like gh60

[polar girder]

Yeah

[fluid ravine]

or like frog mini plate

o

[polar girder]

I only have frog mini plate rn

[fluid ravine]

i have one

[polar girder]

Venom 7u?

[fluid ravine]

yh

[polar girder]

What material

[fluid ravine]

fr4

[polar girder]

Oh snap

[fluid ravine]

i have alu in my board rn

[quasi hinge]

This has wooting kom poms just in case anyone was wondering

[fluid ravine]

hollup

[polar girder]

Ofc it does

[fluid ravine]

lemme check divinkey

[polar girder]

You Chad

[fluid ravine]

you want bigsly?

[quasi hinge]

Long live the pom king

[fluid ravine]

divinikey doesn't sell fr4 7u

[polar girder]

Yeah I just need to buy the keysnaps.

[fluid ravine]

it out of stock

i just want the CFRP 7u plate for my venom

[polar girder]

Yeah I’ve had a hard time finding the plate and the keysnaps both in stock at the same time lol

[fluid ravine]

lol

[polar girder]

Yeah I would like to try CF at some point

I like alu

[fluid ravine]

i like alu too

[polar girder]

I’m a big stiffness guy now

[fluid ravine]

but i want that extra hint of brightness from cf so flipping bad

im gonna go insane LMAO

[quasi hinge]

Join the cf church

[fluid ravine]

alu is like moderate and resonate

which i like

as well

[polar girder]

Yeah I don’t love loud

But Alu & kom Pom is a killer combo

[fluid ravine]

yeah i dont know how you would feel about cf plate then

hehe

said the same thing about alu and raw back then

i think they would still lowk hit

but yh lmk bigsly

ion mind selling it to you

[fluid ravine]

not like im gonna use it anyways

[quasi hinge]

My baby

[fluid ravine]

xd

last time i touched the fr4 was when i got my wooting v2 so i can put the tikkens on it to test it out

it was, alright, could just be the switch for me

[polar girder]

So hot

[fluid ravine]

[polar girder]

Damn wtf why that middle hole

[fluid ravine]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[polar girder]

I fking hate that hole

[fluid ravine]

oh right

[polar girder]

Who made that plate

[fluid ravine]

venom still uses tray mount

[polar girder]

Geon?

[fluid ravine]

yea

venom pcb was made for tray mount and gummy mount

[polar girder]

Oh I see it.

[fluid ravine]

so he had to make it compatible

[polar girder]

Right yeah

[fluid ravine]

yeee

i hate the whole too

can't really see it unless its not black

lol

[polar girder]

lol i know I just hate it

[fluid ravine]

shit got me coooked

damnit i really wish bowl still had some CF plate in stock so i can pick one up with the vella damnit

if it werent for mino keys declining my card i couldve gotten one

[robust siren]

just get bakka universal plate custom cut

[fluid ravine]

lmao

[robust siren]

anyways in leaving japan tomorrow o7

[fluid ravine]

o

[robust siren]

got the last model and they drove me back to the station

wouldve been a 20 minute walk uphill

[fluid ravine]

get dat cardio in mah boi

[robust siren]

i walked to the store and dropped $110

and 180 at their other location

[fluid ravine]

wth 😭

[robust siren]

the bag was $90

AGS Radiant HE + Akko Astrolink soundtests uploaded to database today:

• Akko: https://www.youtube.com/shorts/UTBX-_KsMKo
• AGS: https://www.youtube.com/shorts/yLgwbii_edU

[fluid ravine]

astrolink slightly sharper on the top out im guessing

[fallen pecan]

just me or these 2 sound almost identical

[fluid ravine]

i can hear the minor difference

but they're pretty much the same

i think specs wise as well

AGS Radiant HE
Top: PA12
Stem: POM
Bottom: P2

nvm

[fluid ravine]

i lied about this

[glacial wind]

They're basically same sound just like crystal HE again

[fluid ravine]

but where the hell is the astrolink spec sheet

material*

[glacial wind]

the special fiberglass bottom thing just doesn't seem to add any new sound signature to hmx's switches

[fluid ravine]

yeah practically

[fluid ravine]

oh wait yeah no i actually do hear a difference between these two

like we can obviously put them in the same category of clack

but i can still hear the difference

but i still stand by my statement that astrolink is still slightly sharper than AGS

@glacial wind all the mic settings and volume are the same with each recording right?

or atleast you try to make sure it is?

[glacial wind]

yep literally down to the mic distance

it's all identical

there's a very minor difference but like crystal he it's so minor that basically no average person will notice

[fluid ravine]

ok well ima just like tell my thoughts on comparison just from based from what im hearing out of my ears and yeah i agree average person can't even hear the difference anyways

[glacial wind]

sometimes the camera angle shifts slightly but my mic and recording setup is permanently on a measured setup directly above middle of keyboard via pole rig

[fluid ravine]

Crystal and AGS are basically identical, but i think that the volume overall on the crystal is slightly a smidge louder than AGS but again no one can even fricking tell. Sound profile same across the board here.

Astrolink however, again i still stand by my statement, it's sharper than the both. I think I would notice it more, but average person, not really.

[fluid ravine]

i really fw this

it's sick

[broken notch]

I've been working on a chill Jurassic PArk keycap set :3 The bottom is scuffed rn, but yeah, the edges will be touched up etc, but this is the rough idea

[robust siren]

greenland doesnt own greenland guys

[glacial wind]

i think volume is a tricky one too because spring weight or how you feel that day can change how hard you bottom out keys too. which is why i decided not to include noise level meters on my sound tests

[fluid ravine]

true

good point there

spring length and spring weight can def change the volume of the switch

[glacial wind]

sometimes you're just on an off day too with typing and it can change how hard you even press the keys lol

[fluid ravine]

lol

then theres day where you become apart of the speed force

[glacial wind]

the most noticable though is when spring weights/distance change a lot, then it REALLY affects how well you can type

like i've done back to back sound tests before where i've had to record the sample 10-15x times because my hands stop being able to type properly mid recording due to the weights feeling so different

[fluid ravine]

[glacial wind]

you just get used to whatever is your norm, then when it changes too much it really messes with your typing feel

[fluid ravine]

60g to 40g would kill me

[fluid ravine]

https://unikeyboards.com/products/wingtree-yuci-he-magnetic-gaming-switch-factory-lubed-10pcs? so uh what the hell is this

[glacial wind]

really bad switches from everything i've heard lol

[fluid ravine]

LMAO

wait holdup 😂 😂

[glacial wind]

i never bought them because everyone i talked to with them said they were awful

[fluid ravine]

fire

EVEN THE SPRING AND LEAF ARE LUBED!!!

[fluid ravine]

unique stem and bottom housign design

[broken notch]

They look like temu switches tbh

[fluid ravine]

nice

"Instantly make any he mangetic keyboards sound better**

be so for real 😭

i guess this is the inspo

[glacial wind]

i'm doing a quick update of the switch recommendation image but man owlab ti he is just the forever staple i guess

feels like it's just always there

[broken notch]

Ufo ufo!!

[glacial wind]

ufo is on the stability section now yeah

[broken notch]

I am so happy I went with ufos

The sound so good

[fluid ravine]

Go to switch ig haha

Raw hype then we go to upgraded raws

[glacial wind]

the thing is even if i replaced it, the replacements aren't really any better, just sidegrades

[fluid ravine]

Yeah

I wonder if anybody scrolls all the way back up in the modding faq

[broken notch]

I do

[fluid ravine]

Oop

[broken notch]

I did

[fluid ravine]

[broken notch]

Like a sponge I read and consumed all info

[fluid ravine]

Theres so much since the last time I check

[fluid ravine]

Ignore switch tape mod

Irrelevant

That needs to go

We in the new gen

[glacial wind]

almost no one. It needs a big update but i wanted to do the update with linked guides to our official wooting modding site, but the site upgrades taking time

[fluid ravine]

7/14/2023
I think that message should be removed

[glacial wind]

organise it nicely with linked guides + images and an auto responder bot that mods/chosen people can activate

[fluid ravine]

Yeee

Well do take the time with the site tbh

I think once that is like good to go

Then do work on modding faq

[glacial wind]

yeah that's the plan. Doing it now would just be creating double work later re-cleaning it up again for the official site, that's mostly why i've just left the old stuff

[fluid ravine]

Yeap

[broken notch]

I don't even know what this is tbf

[fluid ravine]

Good

Don't even bother

It's in the faq

Next to tempest tape mod

[broken notch]

Heh

Are stabilisers even worth replacing? I feel like they have minimal impact beyond lubing?

[fallen pecan]

if you get something like the ttc one, you won't hear the wire slamming into the housng if you spam the spacebar a lot

whereas designer studio has a flex piece under the wire that pushes up all the time so the wire is always in contact

tho it's known to break off after a while, or if you mess with it a lot

[glacial wind]

hrm what to put as my 3rd rgb recommendation

right now we have mmd c1, thunderflash white for 2

oh maybe nova

i need my novas to arrive to confirm how they feel though

[fallen pecan]

ice ultra clears

[broken notch]

Thank you!

[glacial wind]

oh right ice ultra is a good one to add

can put that until i figure out wtf to do with novas

[fallen pecan]

kailh jellyfish is also fully clear, dont think you have those tho

[glacial wind]

yeah i don't really want to add the rarer/trickier to find stuff since this list is for normies

oh actually those unionwell xueyao are quite good for just basic rgb

[fallen pecan]

xue yao and jing yao

[glacial wind]

snow jade or whatever the name translates to

[fallen pecan]

but those have opaque bottoms iirc

[glacial wind]

ah right it is opaque at bottom

actually it's probably a ttc horse rgb angle now that i think about it

[fallen pecan]

if you can get ocean whispers readily in the future, those too

[glacial wind]

i'm a bit bummed they chose not to include ocean whisper with zoom64 options

unless you buy the he pcb with it

[fallen pecan]

i saw the demo kits on bili, they only got flux alphas

[glacial wind]

oh right there's taishan gt pink too now

but those are still on the way so i need to test them still

[robust pendant]

i have a small number of raptor v2s and i'm thinking instead of going with mmd c1s cuz they're so cheap and have better rgb

is the stability on the c1s still worthwhile and stuffs

[glacial wind]

either is a good switch

c1 is less stable but it's still good for a regular stem

if you're really concerned about bottom stability you could look at phylina thunderflash white

those are fully clear housing and more stable + still very cheap

[robust pendant]

primary concern is top stability.. like

i also have a few gateron sparks and resting your finger on the wrong part of the keycap can actuate the switch if actuation is low enough

altho that's a B tier for top

[glacial wind]

yeah gateron sparks have split stem so they're naturally slightly loose on top press

[robust pendant]

also as a gd player (yes i admit) the raptor v2 i play with is able to be pushed in like 0.2mm beyond its bottom out which i think is weird

[glacial wind]

ttc horse rgb switches potentially great rgb switch too, but very few of us have tested it yet as it's brand new

[robust pendant]

maybe that's just fatigue cuz i record the number of clicks i put on it (around 200,000 since installing it)

[robust pendant]

is there a significant sound/feel difference between the c1s and those

[chilly mural]

There's another one, Meze Empyrian 2. Same tuning but might be more comfortable than hd800s

[glacial wind]

yeah, note is different but both is clean. You can listen to soundtest inside the database and compare

go to the database, both have soundtests listed

Alright so playing around with the recommendations i think it'll probably end up roughly like this, but I need to test ttc horse myself and see how it compares vs flip kom

oops forgot to crop it

there we go

[broken notch]

UFO on the front page, letsa goooo

[glacial wind]

owlab you could sidegrade with any of the crystal he/ags radiant he/raptor v2 variants at this stage probably, but it's just preference based

i moved jade ultra and spark to fully compatible now too, since we have them in switch selector

[chilly mural]

Rip raptor v2

Still waiting for the tecsee to be on switch selector

[glacial wind]

yeah it's a pity we couldn't add it. I think it's going to be same problem with all of the silent switches

[robust pendant]

why'd it need to be slotted out

we think once we get some other accuracy updates in then maybe we can make it work, but the silent switches are just a nightmare to have tight accuracy models for (i assume due to the dampening issues)

[glacial wind]

just too much competition in the stability segment

like i said potentially it could be a swap owlab out for raptor/ags/astrolink/crystal he angle, but i'm not sure if that's an upgrade for overall pick or not

could also be a jade ultra goes out and raptor/ags replace it, so stability would be ufo + ttc horse/flip + raptor/ags

but not sure yet. I need to wait for horses to arrive to decide and test them better

feels like if you want that s/s stability though that most would go ufo over raptor unless they're on budget now

[broken notch]

This could be the greatest but also the worst thing ever :p

[hearty slate]

what switches should i definitely try? even not on this list (i have tried mmd c1 and lekkers)

[broken notch]

There's a new list

Since this morning

[broken notch]

This one.

[robust siren]

well if you got the budget, fluxes and ufos

when i get back to the US, i got like 4 different switches to test

[upbeat delta]

Guys I haven't been checking this discord for aaaaages since I was an early 60he adopter and have basically been happy with my build since
I'd be interested to know if anyone in here has played around with the friction fit pad, possibly in the hibi June case?

[robust siren]

got the WS Flux Mobius (OG Flux recolor), UR Ice Ultras, Kois, AGS Radiants

[upbeat delta]

My June has a slight misalignment to one of the standoff inserts so the PCB gets pushed to one side more than the other, and the friction pad looks like it would solve that because it more or less forces the PCB to be centered in the case

I ordered 70 KeyTok Nova switches, and this is what I got

@sacred elm

[limpid acorn]

my oldddddddd 60he has died 😢

well probably has died

time to get a new one and actually get some nice switches

i was not aware the lekker v1's were so awful, i thought all he switches were like that tbh

[chilly mural]

L.ao

Lmao

[peak breach]

That list is heresy

[broken notch]

I don't think it is, but to each their own

[peak breach]

No raptors v2

Heresy

[sacred elm]

[peak breach]

Smh gateron jade ultras

[broken notch]

Tastes differ

[glacial wind]

UFO is just a better raptor honestly. Both s tier physical wobble. Only downside is price but no reason to have both on list

[mental gyro]

wait i dont need to remove the keycaps in the split spacebar to open pcb up?

i see its not circles at the bottom

but the vid says all stabs keycaps

[glacial wind]

What timestamp are you talking about

[ionic breach]

b for the new jades?

[glacial wind]

We can’t tell the context with just the freeze frame

[ionic breach]

its that bad?

[mental gyro]

https://youtu.be/DF6i5ozV5bY?si=zfMMNrOL8ttn4TtW&t=198

[glacial wind]

It’s not bad but it’s more than normal switches by a tad due to split stem

[ionic breach]

icic

[glacial wind]

oh yeah I guess the render missed one circle

you'll remove the spacebar too

[mental gyro]

alright i figured ye

👍

[glacial wind]

is there a reason you're tray mounting though

[mental gyro]

ill go unscrwe stuff thanks for the help (prolly be back for more stupid questions when i get stuck)

[glacial wind]

but wait why

why are you unscrewing it all

[broken notch]

The fit is why you'd get a hev2 tho

So you don't have to screw

[sacred elm]

wants to remove the switch

[broken notch]

You don't need to unscrew to remove a switch?

I'm confused

[sacred elm]

They couldn't pull it out with a puller

[broken notch]

Did we check if they're doing it correctlyM

It shouldn't be that hard >.>

[sacred elm]

Yes

[broken notch]

Okay, I take your word for truth, just wanted to make sure

[neat spade]

can someone recommend cheap fitting any material case for 60he? (i dont like the sloped front)

[ionic breach]

Tofu Redux or Frog Leggera

there is cheaper, but these 2 are v solid

[broken notch]

There's a Holy60 clone on aliexpress that works well

Both in plastic and in Alluminium afaik

[limpid acorn]

out of curiosity

whats the difference between lekker v1's and v1.5s?
