actually right now I'm testing out the ceramic 60% case with my v2

robust siren
analog prawn
#

but I think I made a mistake LOL

analog prawn
#

yeah

fluid ravine
fluid ravine
#

sno talked about it once

fluid ravine
#

how is it?

#

even though you said it was a mistake dogekek

analog prawn
#

LOL

fluid ravine
#

oh HAHAHHAH

robust siren
#

the only image i have with it in the 7u config atm carstare

analog prawn
#

now i'm trying to figure out how do I get this out LOL

fluid ravine
#

oop-

#

lube it up

#

jk

robust siren
#

split right shift is so good carstare

fluid ravine
#

but damn that sucks..

robust siren
#

no more god awful right shift sounds

fluid ravine
robust siren
#

wait ill have to deal woth it on the 80he AyaDeed

analog prawn
#

but the case itself honestly surprised how light it is

fluid ravine
analog prawn
#

super light

#

for a ceramic

fluid ravine
#

oh-

analog prawn
#

like 800g

fluid ravine
#

WHAT

analog prawn
#

gonna try using it with the keytok nova

fluid ravine
#

800????

analog prawn
#

I think it'll be quite deep

fluid ravine
#

i had to like convert it a few times dogekek but whaaaat 800g is wild

#

for a ceramic case..

analog prawn
#

yeah you would think it'd be heavier

fluid ravine
analog prawn
#

yeah, we'll see which case I prefer the most at the end with the v2

analog prawn
#

getting myself a steel case soon

fluid ravine
#

damn mikey getting everything dogekek

robust siren
#

uhh fuck i really wish i got 7u led pcb and not some fuckass 6.25u led pcb

analog prawn
fluid ravine
#

lmao

robust siren
#

fuckin keybay angry_noot

analog prawn
#

too be fair I do this for work partially

robust siren
analog prawn
#

you ordered the 6.25u and they send you 7u?

robust siren
#

why even have it as an option to buy if youre just gonna sell 6.25u only

analog prawn
#

i mean opposite

robust siren
analog prawn
#

ahh that's unfortunate

#

have you tried reaching out to keybay?

robust siren
#

well yes.. 7u ledpcb just doesnt exist for them

fluid ravine
robust siren
#

even when i sent the image of all 4 led pcbs

analog prawn
#

ohhh that's unfortunate

robust siren
fluid ravine
#

that's what he meant by this

#

unlucky

analog prawn
#

that was for the rakka?

fluid ravine
#

yeeeup

analog prawn
#

there is a place sending it out I think they are sending me the 7u

#

or at least trying to send me the 7u plate version

robust siren
#

at least i can use universal layout plate

#

i can get away with using 6.25u ledpcb with 7u split but not 7u

#

it requires leaving the right most stab to be unscrewed

analog prawn
#

interesting

#

I'll have to take a look once I get it

ionic breach
robust siren
#

which completely fucks 7u but its fine for split

but it was def more than 12in at the time we were shoveling

and it was still snowing

so id say it totaled to around 17-20in once it finished

They offer plate files for the wooting, but don't cut them or sell them? That's odd

Hello, new to this channel but I was wondering if anyone knew where i can get metal keycaps for the wooting 60he v2 ansi split in bright silver? was considering just painting my original set but i'd rather not. Thanks!

ionic breach
#

but just sell for ansi

#

splits and iso are the files cos they never planned for it

copper dome
#

anyone know if I cant buy a fr4 plate for wooting 80he

little glen
#

Not from wooting but plenty are available elsewhere

#

Aliexpress has a few sellers, toronto keyboard man also sells them (they are just aliexpress plates that he resells)

#

You can also get one custom cut by hypekeyboards if you need ISO

Hi! I really want to make my wooting 60he+ iso nordics more silent but i am totally inexperienced when it comes to keyboard modding. This is my first expensive keyboard. I mainly play fps and just want the keyboard more silent for late night playing. Would anyone be kind enough to help me out?

ionic breach
#

theres a couple silent switches

stoic cradle
#

Thank you! Any of these switches would not compromise performance in any way? I play valorant ranked religiously at high level and just want to make sure performance wont be compromised. I read some stuff about silent HE switches not being up to par yet?

broken notch
#

Any up or downsides are marked on that site

#

They are seperate from the manifacturers so believable

ionic breach
#

most silent switches use soft dampening

broken notch
#

No marketing embellishment

ionic breach
#

ehich can fk with thr callibration

#

which might make you have to use less sensitive settings to compensate

#

which is not the worst thing

stoic cradle
#

And changing switches would be the most effective way ti make it more silent? Also read alot about switch plate kits, foams etc

broken notch
#

I'd go for Tec Magnetic or HVX HE tbh

#

Going from the list

stoic cradle
broken notch
#

Switches have the biggest impact imo

ionic breach
#

domes for valorant?

broken notch
#

But it's definitely a sum of all parts

ionic breach
broken notch
#

I am curious!

cloud crane
#

Topruh 🤤

ionic breach
#

im not a silent user but domes for any wasd games sounds rough

broken notch
#

Peach and freya is meh anyway

#

Idk, there's not much optimal for silent

ionic breach
#

yea

broken notch
#

You're definitely looking for a niche here

#

What keeb do you have

stoic cradle
#

Hmm, appreciate the help. Perhaps focusing on changing case, using foam and similar things is better than changing switches at the moment?

broken notch
#

60he+ huh

#

Could tapemod the module for starters

#

But it won't do much to the sound intensity imo

#

Oh and definitely change your plate

#

Yours is steel afaik

#

Which is rigid and noisy af

stoic cradle
#

I dont care much about how it sounds, just want to lower the volume for my GF

#

Tofu60 good?

ionic breach
#

i would get a mat

broken notch
#

The plate

stoic cradle
#

I have a mat

ionic breach
#

deskmat or keebmat

broken notch
#

The uh, part your switches sit on

ionic breach
#

wooting sells pc plates

broken notch
#

Keebmat is pretty good call ,aye

#

I'd go for a softer plate too

stoic cradle
#

Are u talking about the pc switch plate?

broken notch
#

The keyboard switch plate

stoic cradle
#

Yeah on the wooting website there is something called pc switch plate

broken notch
#

This is an FR4 plate for example

ionic breach
#

basicslly go thru the sound tests link i sent

#

domes are more silent but they are like tactile in a way like 10 dollar amazon keebs

#

which is not a dealbreaker but its up to you

#

each of the switches have a link for a sound test

#

all the way on the right

broken notch
#

Play them at full blast to your partner AFoxy_KEKW

stoic cradle
#

alright thank you

#

Are there any other mods you think are worth doing? Silent or not

# stoic sparrow I think I found it but I don’t think that price is normal

Swagkeys has specific size layouts and save a few bucks, but they're in South Korea so shipping will probably suck https://swagkeys.com/products/sw-calm-beige-pbt-keycaps?variant=46892418662653

stoic sparrow
#

Yeah shipping from Korea is pretty crazy for me

#

I was looking at the leggera and the shipping was as much as the keyboard

stoic sparrow
ionic breach
#

for 60he?

stoic sparrow
#

Yeah

#

Tofu is a choice I guess

cloud crane
#

You missed tofu 60 3.0

ionic breach
#

tofu 3.0 or flux60 or gehrin or holy60

#

cheaper id say tofu redux or leggera

stoic sparrow
#

Where can I get a leggera from in Europe

#

On their site the shipping is like 50-60🥲

ionic breach
#

they have partners world wide

#

but idk if any stock them

id ask their discord

stoic sparrow

The tofu 3 is nice too but seems like it’s out of stock

would u guys recommend the optimum case or holy60 or tofu

bronze flare

is there any keycaps that wld match w optimum that has split spacebar and legends

holy60 might sound a bit different but it should be fine with their plastic insert

personally i love the new tofu since it's just a slab of metal as a keyboard

#

yes but the split will need a diff plate

#

i dont remember which other layouts will need diff plates, there were 3 including the split ansi

glacial wind
#

basically any except the default ansi regular spacebar will need to download and make your own plate from that file

#

although technically you can friction fit but it's not a fully perfect friction fit

#

we tested friction fitting one internally and it did work

anyone reckon if the 60he v2 pcb is worth it over the venom 60?

unless u need 7u spacebar for some reason

honestly i went into some form of psychosis last week and impulse bought a ton of shit including the venom 60

is tray mount the one in the 60he?

isn't a bit late though if you already have the venom?

stoic sparrow
#

Is there like a list for cases I can get for the 60HE in Europe?

#

Other than the tofu

little glen
#

virtually all the manufacturing is done in china so you'd be a lot more likely to find a compatible case there

#

look at this list and see if you can find one

#

there are more compatible cases not listed here (wilba tech salvation being one for example)

#

but it also really depends how much you are willing to spend

stoic sparrow
#

About 100€

bronze flare
#

is wuque studios flux good?

little glen
#

at 100 euro price point you wont have many options unfortunately

little glen
#

official site pricing is way too expensive vs other places

#

if i need another project to dump money into

stoic sparrow
little glen
#

yeah

stoic sparrow
#

Only from their site with 40€ shipping plus the import fees and vat which will be insane

ionic breach
#

almost all cheap budget cases are asia

with the exception of the tofu

For keycaps you have to factor in the hidden costs of production, other than its plastic so it has to be cheap

I really wish 80HE was designed for poron gasket SwitchyCry

robust siren
#

you can also just do this without the top case on too since there arent any tabs on the plate

#

kinda just shmove it forward and down, youd pull it out the same way with friction fit

little glen
ionic breach
#

honestly it would have been fine if they did a full tkl lol

little glen
#

bro imagine being able to leaf spring mount the 80he using the gasket tabs on the plate or some shit

ionic breach
#

3rd party makers would be more inclined to make a case for it, cos aesthetically the 80he sucks

little glen
#

i think aesthetically its pretty good

#

hot take

ionic breach
#

like they even made a gt60 to middle usb port adapter for the 60 lol

ionic breach
#

the layout and led bar would be unpopular to their usual customers

#

collabs are probably the only way, and they would take like years

#

even tenz collab took so long despite being so simple, they started the collab even before the 80he was a thing

#

so maybe theres a secret collab in the works rn

What are sum good cases

https://youtu.be/2JqNqpF0XYM I don't know if anyone has watched this video on plate tests but i love how clacky this board sounds. it is something i am wanting to replicate with my v2. i am debating between the carbon fibre and polypropylene to be honest. i know the carbon is stiffer and the pp is softer with a poppier sound. and i see that HypeKeyboards offer quite a wide range of materials of which are all cheaper than CF with the included flat fee so I just have to decide really...

Ever wondered how plate materials affect custom mechanical keyboard sound?
Are you building keyboard and want to have as deep/clack/poppy/marbly/thocky keybord as possible? Different plate materials have different sound properties, so watch and decide yourself what is best for you.

tofu 60 redux is goated, frog mini legarra is very nice also. i opted with the aluminium case for the v2 and it's very premium, sleek and relatively low profile, which was the reason i sent the tofu back as it was too tall for me.

Depending on the switches you’re using or planning on using, POM can give you a little bit of pop with deep undertones with a little harshness but you can tune it out with pairing it with poron foam which mutes the harsh higher frequencies in your build

Hey guys, I’m cleaning my keyboard, and I noticed that it has hair under the keycaps. How do you remove it?

For the loose hairs you can get a small ish brush tool to try and scrape them to the side and take it out in a clump

Hello guys,

I'm totally new in the magnetic keyboard universe, just learned it existence and naturally, I came to know Wooting.

I made a lot of researchs but I need a final advice please about the build I'm going for :

  • Wooting 80 HE Module
  • Layout ISO French
  • PCR Plastic Case
  • First I was going to choose the Lekker Tikken Medium but now I'm aiming for the Gateron Jade Pro (Dual SMD > classic right ?)
  • I'll continue my researchs on keycaps since we are very limited in ISO French but if I don't find anything good, I'll go with the Double-shot PBT Keycap Set from Wooting
  • Gateron stabilizer for space/shift/enter (since I'm ordering the switchs on their website)
  • Some foam pads (my next research but I'll probably try those later)
  • Some tape of course

Or easier and I take the Tenz, swap 2-3 keycaps + Wootility remap and bet on my muscle memory to remember where I need to press

Could a kind soul help me choose the right path please ?

Thank you !

# paper mulch Hello guys, I'm totally new in the magnetic keyboard universe, just learned it ...

Go here and listen to sound tests: https://link.wooting.io/soundtests Jade Pro and dual SMD are the same, dual SMD just has two LED diffusers. I'd recommend getting something else instead.
Also you don't need Gateron stabilizers, those are already preinstalled in 80HE.
Not sure what you mean by "foam pads", if you mean switch pads then don't use those as they negatively affect keyboard's performance.

# paper mulch Thank you 🙂

Personally from what I've also heard you would really like teh V2 lekker switches because they are quiet from the videos that I've heard on YTUBE which is the stock switches the 80HE is supposed to come with basically I myself just ordered the Lekker L60 V2's to give them a shot out cause Im searching for that quieter sound in my 60 HE V2

Rather than a curly font

paper mulch
lyric nimbus
#

is it a pain in the ass to mill?

broken notch
#

Because a curvy font, in my personal opinion, does not fit the aesthetic of your case design at all

lyric nimbus
#

mmm

#

To me it currently exudes classical design, old stuff

You want to be a bit sharper, aggressive, newer

If that makes sense

$26 for it all and it doesn't even fit my spacebar 😭

tropic urchin

You can cut the foam to make it fit it’s too much or are you saying it’s not enough

gritty laurel
tropic urchin
#

Oof

gritty laurel
#

I'll have to cut here

tropic urchin
#

So typically you don’t want to have any foam on the center piece where the switch is

#

You want it on opposite ends and have a clear space in the center

#

Then once it’s where you need it to be just push it into the spacebar and you should be good to go

#

why do they design it that way if you have to end up cutting it😓

@harsh dove is it possible to cut out the number row silicone and transplant majority of my poron onto it so it maintains silicone stiffness with poron sound

#

Or will it jeopardize the overall stability of the gasket cutting away too much

I’ve just about had it with how much poron moves 😭😭

seems fine so far

harsh dove

yeah should be okay

robust siren

@tropic urchin

tropic urchin
# harsh dove This?

Yeah basically I want the number row and alphas to have the same sound with as little silicone as possible

#

If I cut the surrounding stab silicone would that change things

little glen

Here‘s exactly what i cut out

#

seems similar to what you did plus the num row

robust siren

i shall cut it like that

wait do i even have foam-

Ideally it shouldn’t change much

Doubt it

Since the only part that matters in theory are the side parts

little glen

honestly

it might be possible to make a custom plate with tabs on the sides

where you can place the silicone underneath
