Wait can you not gummy o ring the pcb?

Oh

[fluid ravine]

you can use a gummy o'ring to friction mount the pcb

[candid bramble]

It could be fun thooooo

[fluid ravine]

but you won't get the full experience of a gummy mount board if there aren't any cutouts on the pcb for the case posts of a gummy mount case

[fluid ravine]

I've done this already in a tofu case and what not and hell its a lot better than tray mount but again not the same as gummy mount

[candid bramble]

I mean is worth a shot

I will see how bad it is to make a case myself

Using their file lmao

[fluid ravine]

Here's a video of my old woot build back to early of 2024 i think?

[candid bramble]

Wait did they make a tofu60 v3?

[fluid ravine]

Wooting 60HE with a bakeneko60 30a oring in a tofu case
Standoffs dremeled

[candid bramble]

I know they made a 65 v3

[fluid ravine]

yes

60 v3 came out before 65

[candid bramble]

Oh what

I been living under a rock

[fluid ravine]

lol

like the zoom, wooting pcb is compatible if you get the usb extension

[candid bramble]

I mean I still have time to pick cuz I have 2 60 he pcb that I haven't touch

And building a bone 80 next week

[fluid ravine]

i forgot what the cable is called specifically

[candid bramble]

I will see what spec I end up with lmao

[fluid ravine]

FPC Cable

right

zoom64 should be using something similiar as well

[candid bramble]

The side of the zoom look so cool

[young viper]

Zoom has a hub like structure on it I think, I saw someone putting a wooting in a zoom in a video

[fluid ravine]

yup

[glacial wind]

zoom is cable + hub yeah

[candid bramble]

What switches you guys running btw

[fluid ravine]

theres extra space for the cable to be connected at the port so it can be routed

[glacial wind]

since they wanted to add the scroll wheel

[candid bramble]

Cuz I was thinking AE Reads and geon raw

On 2 of the builds

[fluid ravine]

I'm using a frakensteined combo and i have Kois on the way right now

[glacial wind]

i'm still waiting for someone to do full copper bottom with 7 degree or less case

tofu 3.0 could have been the one but it was 9 degrees

great tragedy

[candid bramble]

Dude if only

Cherry housing

He switche

Oh my lord

[young viper]

Order the rgbs next

[glacial wind]

overture v2 looks interesting at least, but who knows how far out their 60% is

[fluid ravine]

if they're available to buy from the US

[young viper]

I'm collecting kois like infinity stones

Nah superbuy

[fluid ravine]

i forgotttt about that boarddd

[fluid ravine]

well def a no for me then

[glacial wind]

the 65% is coming soonish

[candid bramble]

Can someone send the switch compatibility notion thing?

[fluid ravine]

heard it uses its own tadpole mount and shi

[glacial wind]

60% they said after, but who knows when that will come

[candid bramble]

I can't find it for some reason:(

[glacial wind]

#💬│general message

he may have been kidnapped... forgot bout him

[regal patio]

Why are the default Koi's so popular

They are just another graingold switch

The RGB ones are the most exciting ones

[young viper]

They're a cleaner dfc

Dcf?

Idk fluxes

[regal patio]

Alr

So nothing that special honestly

[glacial wind]

they aren't really. It's just side effect of foreign enthusiast discords being very small

[young viper]

Dirt cheap is honestly their only real point here

[broken notch]

I just think they're neat

[glacial wind]

with any of the enthusiast groups you have to remember that it's a very small subset of folks and most people aren't on discord

just like when duhuk got popular for awhile while it wasn't popular at all outside of small discord groups

[young viper]

I'm excited for the rgbs... If they ever show up

[glacial wind]

most discord groups are like the same 10-20 people if you compare the 50 different peripheral discords

so you kind of get the impression that 'oh dam this switch is everywhere!' sometimes but really it's just a wave of discussion with the same people in various discords

rgb koi is interesting though in that it's pa12 bottom, so that's actually new

[regal patio]

Yep

[young viper]

I think only jade maxes use a pa12 bottom so yeah should be neat

[glacial wind]

keytok nova, flux ocean whisper are pa12 too

[quasi hinge]

Regular black zinc with cf plate and my old magneto kom poms

My buddy said wheres the knob lol

I told him it would be out already

[young viper]

Oh yeah your right

Rgb is probably going to be a similar case to the novas in sound I bet

Speaking of rgbs, they've finally been shipped to the warehouse lol

[glacial wind]

knob coming 'soon'

[broken notch]

Knob ksoon

[fluid ravine]

bob when

[trail bane]

Knob !soon

[dawn hornet]

Need knob

[robust siren]

[fluid ravine]

turn me

twist me

press me

[robust siren]

[fluid ravine]

aight ima stop

[fluid ravine]

i thought thats what they obsessed knobs over

[robust siren]

bub needs to sleep

wait why are you still up

[fluid ravine]

im doing homework

i just finished actually

[robust siren]

ah yes the classic “who submitted their homework at 3am”

Pull me

Fidget me

[fluid ravine]

[fluid ravine]

[robust siren]

ah yes

[dawn hornet]

Screens covered

[fluid ravine]

Pillow cases

[robust siren]

the classic “i can’t see shit”

[fluid ravine]

LMAO

wait

Do yall turn off yalls monitor when you're not using it?

[robust siren]

i just let it go to sleep mode

after i turn off my pc

[fluid ravine]

Same

[robust siren]

i never hard anything about having to manually do it so ive been doing that for years

[fluid ravine]

I see

Cus I know a friend that turns off his monitor after use so was just wondering

I only turn mines off when I hear my parents outside my room at 3am

[dawn hornet]

Mmmmm yum

[broken notch]

Why do you put pillow cases on

Genuine question

[dawn hornet]

Me two twin… me two

[fluid ravine]

It's ike dust covers

[fluid ravine]

[broken notch]

I don't have OLEDs so my screens and computer are on 24/7

[fluid ravine]

My room kinda dusty

[dawn hornet]

I hear footsteps of my mom waking up after knocking out on the sofa watching TV and my fingers go win+x, u, u

[broken notch]

And my pc is not in my room ofc

[dawn hornet]

Jump into bed and pretend I was asleep the entire team

[fluid ravine]

What combo is that?

[broken notch]

I'm a big girl after all

[fluid ravine]

Real HHAHA

[dawn hornet]

Win+x is the windows menu you get when you right click the logo, u is shutdown options, u again is shutdown

[fluid ravine]

O

[dawn hornet]

i would be sign out, r to restart, l to lock

[fluid ravine]

I have one of my fn functions on all of my keyboards to either shut down my PC or sleep

Fn+esc is my sleep and fn+q is shutdown

[young viper]

It's when you get wisdom teeth removed and you don't want to stain the pillow with blood, that's the purpose of mine lmao

[fluid ravine]

That goes for all of my HE and MX boards

[dawn hornet]

Too lazy to set it up, learned the shortcuts and I just use it everywhere now

[fluid ravine]

It's lowkey pretty useful and super quick to use icl
Although if I do sleep the PC just cus I'd have to turn off the monitors just incase if the PC turns on again randomly

[broken notch]

No, I mean on his screens

[young viper]

Oh

I never saw that part

[broken notch]

Normal people put on pillowcases on their pillows, Lumen...

[dawn hornet]

I personally just shut it off because my hours on the pc are like 10pm to 3am and then never touched again until that time

[young viper]

I thought we meant like pillowcases in general

[fluid ravine]

You calling me weird?

[young viper]

Who really needs pillowcases

[broken notch]

Dunno, do you want me to?

[fluid ravine]

I see

[fluid ravine]

Just call me special

[broken notch]

Hehe

[broken notch]

Case arrived :D

[twin egret]

Flux, ur ice ultra, raptor v2 or mmd c1 for osu?

[dire delta]

I am currently on WS Flux DC.
Is there any better switch when it comes to stability, since I am looking for new switches for my 2nd Board😅

[wispy swift]

Does anyone know of aluminum-look keycaps that perfectly match an aluminum Wooting case?

[broken notch]

Nova and UFO

And TTC Horse

I believe those three are considered the most stable ones out there right now

I personally run Gravastar UFOs

So ask away if wanted

[dire delta]

Thx I'll order some UFOs and try them ^^

[tidal ridge]

All these sound ass

[dire delta]

I am currently running WS Flux DC on Alu Plate in my Frog Mini and they sound amazing

[broken notch]

Well you might need a different keyboard type then

[twin iron]

Best switch for valorant?

[glossy pagoda]

Tikken TenZ

[twin iron]

i want smth that are lighter to press than the lekker tekken

[glossy pagoda]

That be them

[little glen]

Lekker tekken

https://tenor.com/view/meme-gif-10758471661434860821

I personally have flux deep clacky and ttc horse and can confirm they are both good

[twin iron]

How much pressure do u have to put on a key

[little glen]

You can get flux much cheaper on aliexpress

A lighter spring wont make you better at valorant

[twin iron]

I know

I had logitech g pro x

it has really light spring

and i like it

[wispy swift]

Hi 👋 Does anyone know of aluminum-look keycaps that perfectly match an aluminum Wooting case ? Thanks

[little glen]

You can swap the springs on your tikkens

To something lighter

[little glen]

There‘s the awekeys

But i honestly would recommend against metal (or other exotic material like ceramic) keycaps cause they can cause issues with their weight and quality control sometimes isnt the best

As for things that just look a little metallic i think there are some pbtfans sets that do that

[wispy swift]

Ok thank you 🙏, yeah that’s what I thought, thanks a lot I’ll take a look have a nice day 😉

[frail hemlock]

I like my cerakeys

[bleak jolt]

Can I really enter here any amount ? It’s superbuy

@little glen @humble surge u had experiences with superbuy before right

[little glen]

No

[glacial wind]

My experience with superbuy was “wow this is a messy ordering process”

[trail bane]

It’ll be better to declare at least 50-60% of your total order value

In theory, only DHL might add tax with some chance; the others usually only get involved if the amount exceeds $150 (ofc if you’re in Europe)

[tropic urchin]

@fluid ravine Bella plates arriving today (POM/PP) 🥶

[golden meteor]

150e*

[humble surge]

yeah you can, however it's best to give something close to the real value, otherwise you go with a value thats below a threshhold you don't want to hit.

[humble surge]

It's very easy to understand and structured in reality, probably the best among the Chinese forwarding services.

[glacial wind]

Yeah but best of that is like saying best of what would be considered F tier for easy to use online services these days

Like the only services more annoying to use are the actual taobao website and the Korean banking system

[regal beacon]

what happens if i put the foam and the silicone in the 60hev2

[humble surge]

Not sure what your issue with it is, F tier in your opinion at best then
As someone who used it for years i really can't agree there sorry.

[broken notch]

The sound is dampened

Somewhat atleast

In any case the sound profile changes

[neat maple]

Hey guys, probably got asked a thousand times already: but what are the best / most competitive switches I could put into my Wooting? Like 90% of the comparisons I find are focused on sound, which is a nice thing but not exactly what I’m focused on

[regal beacon]

would you reccomend it for a thocky sound or just the foam

[candid bramble]

^ is gonna be very quiet

[candid bramble]

Foam is more than enough to get that

[broken notch]

All switches bar domed ones are almost the same performance wise

[sacred elm]

Then usb port is going to be misaligned

[little glen]

all switches, as long as they are recent enough, perform about the same. As long as you get something with good wobble performance you wont feel any in game difference

[candid bramble]

Depends on what you like tbh

It's more or less on pcbs

[sacred elm]

You either use one or the other, can't use both

[little glen]

that is why people focus on other stuff, the switches dont really change how the keyboard performs

[sacred elm]

Don't know why would you use both

[neat maple]

Would you say the Gateron Jades are a pretty „safe“ pick?

[sacred elm]

no

[candid bramble]

Like do you want shorter travel or longer?

Spring weight?

If sound don't matter to you

[neat maple]

Oh no

[sacred elm]

they were safe pick 2 years ago, when there was nothing but lekkers

[neat maple]

I see, what would you say is a safe pick nowadays?

[sacred elm]

check #🪛│modding_faq

[little glen]

anything here will do, focus on the top 2 rows

[sacred elm]

better to click the link there, there are more options

[candid bramble]

Owlab ti is quite safe imo

They are quite cheap as well

[broken notch]

Lekker tikkens are very safe lets be honest here

If you don't know what you want, I will always recommend those

[little glen]

lekker tikken are good but i wont buy them again (i have 160 of them)

[broken notch]

More more

Switches for the switch gods

[little glen]

i also have dcf and horsies

[broken notch]

Lekkers for the lekker throne

[candid bramble]

Oh btw I did your mod and it worked wonderful on both the plastic case and zinc case

[sacred elm]

Fluxes cost 45 for 90, so I don't know if anything's safer than that lol

[broken notch]

Actually, yeah

I keep forgetting

[little glen]

what mod, i did lots of them

[candid bramble]

The silicone cut out

[broken notch]

But I know he's trynng to avoid aliexpress

He said earlier

[sacred elm]

oh

[candid bramble]

Where you cut it to like a half plate shape

[broken notch]

So I still think Lekker Tikkens are best

[little glen]

yeah

i do prefer it that way tbh

still wish there was a way to mount this thing with no silicone sandwich at all

[candid bramble]

Cant wait to build the bone 80 so I don't have to use it at all

[candid bramble]

Yea

It kinda stupid with how they mount it I am ngl

You could have went with gasket on the plate

[little glen]

how are you gonna mount it in the bone

[candid bramble]

But they went with a whole ass silicone

[candid bramble]

Top mount :)

[little glen]

i think plate gasket wouldnt have worked with the pc plate

now that they use fr4 on the tenz edition i could see them doing plate gasket next time around

[candid bramble]

PC plate could work

Is just that it would be very bouncy

[little glen]

yeah you dont want that

on HE

HE needs stiffness

[candid bramble]

Gg

[candid bramble]

Idk cuz the notion said the bone 80 support top mount and the listing also said that

If I can't top mount it well fuck

[little glen]

i mean maybe you can

i dont know how the bone works, never looked into it

[sacred elm]

thought bone80 used the same mounting as 80he cases

[candid bramble]

I will update when I get my hands on it

Idk it looks like you can top mount it

With how the plate is

Unless I am high

I think the holes in the plate allow you to screw it up

But WE WILL SEE

[bleak jolt]

Understood. Thank you.

U know because the tax here is 20%

So I would like 15 euros on top

[fluid ravine]

Ohh sheeeet

[tropic urchin]

Hopefully the bottom accent screws in properly again

[lyric nimbus]

i just realized

how fucked up and evil the 2he design is

[quasi hinge]

Squadmate is retiring the 60he

[lyric nimbus]

deadass this is off by 0.15mm

[silent spruce]

Can someone recommend me places to buy the everglide sticky rice v2’s. they use to be on aliexpress but i cant find them there anymore (only the rice puddings)

[young viper]

https://milktooth.com/products/sticky-rice?srsltid=AfmBOor3SOcUELuyeUZt1zxmQO6rUcCMgAnZ6tUzsYsnqbfn6uG2-Pdg

10 switches per order

[glacial wind]

Someone save this man

[silent spruce]

Thank you, not many places ship to where I live at reasonable prices

[sacred elm]

Why sticky rice?

[sly palm]

sticky rice sounds sticky

[sacred elm]

just get something else, sticky rice switches are outdated

[tropic urchin]

Gluttonous rice clears

[sacred elm]

thockkk

[tropic urchin]

Has a brand new ick sound profile

[sacred elm]

milktooth said in his video that they're thocky

surely

[tropic urchin]

I should make a parody shop called silktooth and only stock $1+ per switch switches

[silent spruce]

I like them. Any issues with them?

[sacred elm]

Like how? They're not thocky like some youtubers say. They're expensive, wobbly and don't sound good. You can get better switches nowadays for the same or less money

#🪛│modding_faq message

[young viper]

kois kois kois kois

[candid bramble]

? sticky rice was good when i first tried them

they were fine to me

[broken notch]

We have the list for a reason

[sacred elm]

I don't know what "fine" is for you, but sticky rices definitely not worth $60

[silent spruce]

🤔 I was originally gonna go for the owl lab ti he switches. but then heard they can be inconsistent, so that was my reasoning. Are they really THAT much better than the everglides?

[humble surge]

the list

https://klipy.com/gifs/monka-walk-away-pepe

[uneven cradle]

Yes

[sacred elm]

Anything from top of the list is going to be better than sticky rice v2s, especially if you care about the sound https://link.wooting.io/soundtests

[uneven cradle]

Milktooths top 5 lists seem to consist of whatever stock he has left lying around so take his videos with a large grain of salt

And a lot of people parrot his lists since they're popular

[regal patio]

Maybe try the Keytok nova's

[robust siren]

i have been summoned

[humble surge]

https://klipy.com/gifs/koi-fish-hungry

[silent spruce]

Okay, I shall revert to the owl lab switches. Are there any stabilisers you’d recommend for them?

[sacred elm]

stock

[silent spruce]

Okay thank you, human. Your help has been deeply appreciated 🧙‍♂️

[candid bramble]

Yea I have no idea

Yk what

Fuck it

Geon raw he on all 3 of my woot build

[candid bramble]

60 is not bad

But there is better switch now

But they were quite nice on my friend board

[sacred elm]

You can get two sets of switches for that price and both of them will be better

so 60 is definitely terrible for sticky rices

[candid bramble]

Stock already ok

You could buy some 205 in a syringe

In case it start ticking

Optional tho

Ok the ur ice and sticky rice is not that far off

Milk tooth did not tell me the spec of the stem

Nvm I am blind

Yea its only the bottom housing is where the difference

I might get ur ice then

[twin egret]

Can u check dms

[robust siren]

<@&1098943457654997093> that guy

[ionic ingot]

?

[robust siren]

logan paul scam

[ionic ingot]

Oh someone sorted it

[pure tiger]

keycap vendors lowkey need to be arrested

[robust siren]

i mean sure if you wanna pay $50 shipping on top of 120+ keycaps but id rather not so

[pure tiger]

trying to find something in stock is highkey torture

[robust siren]

thats not really up to the vendors
thats just how much stock they have of the total printed amounts

[pure tiger]

(joke)

ion really mean it ik it's hell running a business selling keyboard gear

[robust siren]

here we go again

<@&1098943457654997093>

[sacred elm]

You can ask here

[twin egret]

What do you think are best switches for osu?
Rn I'm looking at:
Flux deep clacky
UR Ice ultra
Unionwell hunyuan (heard it’s like blazing bloom)
MMD C1
Raptor he v2

How would u rank them and why? I have lekker l60 v1 and I might swap the springs if that works

[young viper]

I'm not going to rank them. They all rank the same. The only defining trait between all of them is the travel distance and sound.

Your best off listening to the sound test in #🪛│modding_faq message and going off of that

[cyan hemlock]

Do you think it is worth it getting rid of PET Film and adding tape mod? I heard that v2 does better, but what about 80he?

[young viper]

Pet film is simply a acoustic modifier. All a tape mod will do is slightly remove the high pitched aspects of a noise. I'd suggest polyfil if you really want to get rid of the highs

It's really something you just need to play with

Add a tape mod and leave the film, then remove the film, it's all just experimenting to find what you like

[stoic sparrow]

anyone know what keycaps these are?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7WkKkzjJFwA&list=LL&index=9

gmk beige also has that color scheme

[young viper]

Damn yeah I didn't realize how many beige sets there are

[nocturne mango]

Really happy w my V2. Converted my on-keyb macros to AHK. Had already been using AHK for lots of macros. Not a great solution bc it won't work for elevated windows like powershell etc. Now I need to make an elevated run-as for compiled AHK.

I mean geographically I'm closest to japan

[robust siren]

[young viper]

For 11 dollars I expect teleportation

[trail bane]

[lyric nimbus]

[fluid ravine]

Omw home from home game

[sly palm]

You won?

[fluid ravine]

Yeappp

[sly palm]

[uneven cradle]

Well done thockson

[lyric nimbus]

ahhh

[fluid ravine]

Tanks

[robust siren]

hello debtson

[fallen pecan]

2 upcoming switches by offstudio x tnt

orange is very very similar to the tnt magma flux, blue is a silent switch with silicone bumpers top and bottom

[young viper]

The oranges don't sound terrible

[glacial wind]

Cute mini box they give you with the gmk black snail artisan

[uneven cradle]

You have entered dangerous waters

[glacial wind]

i'm still safe, I only have 3 artisans for sets that i actually use full time

i need to buy a keycap storage box though, I forgot how awful the gmk add on kit packaging is

[uneven cradle]

This gonna be you soon

[glacial wind]

at least the base sets come with the box, the add on alpha kit just sitting in the flimsy tray i don't know how to store

already cracking

[uneven cradle]

The linworks ones are nice

[sly palm]

This looks like a fortune

[glacial wind]

Swagkey makes nice heavy duty ones for $7, I should probably pick up one

[uneven cradle]

The description from these ones is pretty funny
https://www.torokeeb.store/product/pre-order-gmk-replacement-trays

[sly palm]

I fear I might fall for the artisan trap

[glacial wind]

my rule with artisans is I only buy them in the sets where i think it fits and i'll actually use it

swagkey tray is quite nice

[sly palm]

Thats a good rule tbf, I lowkey want to get 2 as esc keys for my 80HE and my 60HEv2

But I know my self and the chances that it will stay 2 are pretty ahhh

[uneven cradle]

You wouldn't believe how much some of those artisans cost

[sly palm]

I saw some for 30€+

[glacial wind]

that's starting price

[sly palm]

[glacial wind]

that's just the ones that are instock with standard kits

[uneven cradle]

Some of those go for $400-800 in the aftermarket

[glacial wind]

like my black snail one was $30 price but that's because it's instock with geon ordering a ton of em

the niche custom ones and limited run stuff is crazy, i don't touch those lol

[sly palm]

I might just

Nah thats some crazy numbers for keycaps
Tho some look really cute

The question is, do I get a artisan keycap and get a matching keycap set or do I get a keycap set and a matching artisan for it

[glacial wind]

see that's danger territory

[sly palm]

Ya

[lyric nimbus]

ngl

i want an artisan made of ivory

but we all know that can't happen

why must sick ass materials like ivory be highly unethical 😔

[young viper]

Where's my liquid mercury keycap

[lyric nimbus]

https://www.elforyn.info/en/ i can probably get a block of this and commission someone to make me an artisal key though

[sly palm]

I think resin is also kinda cool

[lyric nimbus]

i could probably get something like this

and then get it machined

[lyric nimbus]

also honestly a liquid mercury keycap would go pretty damn hard

keycap containing liquid mercury in a virtually indestructable case

the thermometer keyboard build

[young viper]

https://www.canadianivory.com/#walrus

Ah yes my walrus keycap

[sly palm]

This looks kinda cool

[lyric nimbus]

like

ivory + ceramic kecap

[young viper]

Where's my pangolin scale keycap

[sly palm]

Where are my keycaps filled with my blood
Would lowkey be sick

I am tired I shouldn't be looking at keycaps that are as pricey as RAM

But I can't stop

[sly palm]

Imma heading to eep cyaa

[granite rune]

yay or nay?

[glacial wind]

That is quite the pricy price

[young viper]

https://torontokeyboardman.ca/products/wooting-v2-modding-kit?_pos=2&_sid=229740e73&_ss=r

Half the price

[glacial wind]

Although I don’t know what tariffs are if you’re an NA person

[quasi hinge]

Yay to cf

[young viper]

I believe shipping+tarrifs for me is about 12 dollars

[granite rune]

i live in au 😔 so shipping will be exxy

that 50 bucks is in aud so like

[young viper]

Still significantly cheaper than amazon

[granite rune]

35 usd roughly i think

amazon shipping is free

[young viper]

Ohh it's au

[granite rune]

yep

[young viper]

Yeah 35 total is usually what you'd be paying anyways

[glacial wind]

oh if you're AU just buy from aliexpress

it'll take a bit to ship, but aliexpress is cheap

[wet garnet]

guys i just spent 20 mins putting a 4 layer tape mod and some foam in the spacebar of my optimum colab and this might be the best sounding thing in the world

[granite rune]

will explore that option thanks for the tip

roughly the same after shipping

[sacred elm]

Make sure to get plate mount compatible plate if you have og 60he

[granite rune]

guess ill just order off amazon since theres better buyer protection

ah yeh cause the stabs are plate mounted

i can jsut use the old stabs from my original right?

or would i have to buy new ones

[sacred elm]

if you get plate mount plate, yes

[granite rune]

W

[lyric nimbus]

anyways

what cable do yall suggest i get for my build

[sacred elm]

Is this the only option for you? I'd advise getting a plate without those flex cuts

[granite rune]

i think theres one without it

welp fr4 one doesnt have it

is there much difference between fr4 and cf in terms of feel this one is cheaper and afaik its fiberglass reinforced epoxy

[sacred elm]

cf is stiffer and more clacky than fr4

[lyric nimbus]

ya think this would fit my 2he build

[sacred elm]

what color is your case

[lyric nimbus]

black

[young viper]

If you pay 119 dollars for a cable I'm stabbing you

[lyric nimbus]

ok BUT IT LOOKS REALLY NICE

[young viper]

NOT 118 DOLLARS NICE

[lyric nimbus]

do i just get

wooting cable

https://wooting.io/product/detachable-cable

[young viper]

Your ancestors are rolling in their graves thinking "man that idiot could have bought a 15 dollar keychron cable which looks almost THE EXACT SAME and went along with his day"

[young viper]

Does your case allow for it? I thought I heard something about it not working on the original 2he case

[lyric nimbus]

hell yeah it does

[young viper]

Do it, I love mine

[lyric nimbus]

i gave like

2.7mm clearance

[regal patio]

Install the standoffs.
Look how the default FR4 plate is attached and copy it

[ionic breach]

have them

id say its not actually like carbon black

more greyish

[young viper]

Drakon why do you own that

[ionic breach]

magic probably

[lyric nimbus]

ok

i think i need rubber feet on my kb

[uneven cradle]

Yeah good thing I haven't spend that much on a cable

[fluid ravine]

Yet

[uneven cradle]

That was a joke I have

Genuine lemo cables ain't cheap

[broken notch]

I don't understand superbuy

3.50 usd shipping costs for switches international? Huh

That does not sound right to me

[young viper]

What???? Is that all it is?

That physically does not make sense

Mine are still being shipped to the warehouse😭

[broken notch]

I have pics

[uneven cradle]

AliExpress be like

[young viper]

Send it you can, are you us or somewhere else? I figure tarrifs are gonna kill me

[young viper]

Lmaooo 1 cent

[uneven cradle]

1 cent shipping from China to NZ

[young viper]

Meanwhile the koi website made 11 dollar 2 day shipping the only option and well it's not going to come in 2 days

Japan to Cali by tomorrow pfttt

[young viper]

Hasn't even been picked up yet

[broken notch]

Kois

[young viper]

Wait the box they come in is awesome

[fluid ravine]

Kois rgb?

[broken notch]

CN ¥ 88.50 to ship with dhl

[broken notch]

Yup

12 euro shipping + taxes kek

That's not bad at all

[young viper]

I was just about to ask if us or not

[broken notch]

No

Eu

[young viper]

Time to see the us shipping costs

1000 dollars in tarrifs

[cloud crane]

Hell nah wait for XX Cable 😭

[orchid valve]

is spacebar foam worth?

[glacial wind]

Depends on the person. Some people actually like the tone of spacebars sounding different

It’s a cheap mod though so usually worth trying out if you don’t like your spacebar sound

[crimson sky]

Isn't it a flat percentage rn?

[young viper]

I believe it's a 25% flat rate on China with a 10% additional rate on every country rn

So much better than 47 or whatever it was before

[crimson sky]

Oh i thought it was flat 15

[young viper]

My bad, it's just a flat 10%. It seems the 25% is meant for maritime cargo and thats been delayed until November

[broken notch]

Lets goo

[regal patio]

You can fill your spacebar with painters tape

That should change the sound slightly

And you could always take it out

[robust siren]

ts is not coming bro

[stoic sparrow]

anyone know what these kind of cables are called

looks like the cable on my iems but idk cant find how they are called

[fallen pecan]

aviator cables

[stoic sparrow]

not it

arent those called coiled cables

i mean something like this

[little glen]

aviator refewrs to the in between connector piece

[stoic sparrow]

ah that makes sense

[stoic sparrow]

i meant like the cable the designe

thats like braided idk how its called

[broken notch]

It doesn't have a name afaik

It's just a knotted cable dunno

[stoic sparrow]

https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005007628537361.html

[broken notch]

https://wiredinstore.com/collections/charging-cables/charging-cable

"IEM-style cables"

[stoic sparrow]

https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005007274952363.html

found this too

no copper colour tho

[broken notch]

I just found this on AliExpress:
Metal USB Type-C Cable For Huawei Honor Xiaomi Super Charge 100W Fast Charging USB C Data Wire Cord Keyboard Phone Accessories
https://a.aliexpress.com/_Ewq3sLA

Here's a copper

[humble surge]

I have several of these wishlisted, it's similar in design to the XVX cable i got

even similar to the supplied and also separately purchaseable Zneo cables

[robust siren]

still in japan bro

[broken notch]

I dislike zneo cables a lot

Don't even use them

They so stinky color changing

@humble surge 10 euros shipping for a box of 64 switches, does that seem right? Superbuy

[broken notch]

I was a bit confused but I chose a taxes included carrier and airfreight by weight

[humble surge]

yeah seems legit, you can show me which one if you want in DM, just to verify

[broken notch]

And then I somehow had a 20 yuan discount

Okay!

Tehehehehe

[young viper]

They must've invented teleportation surely

[robust siren]

[exotic pewter]

Has anybody found that the v2 module spacebar stabs needed a little more grease? Or am I crazy 🧐

[little glen]

i swapped mine out

but there's also unit variance

[regal patio]

With some lube you can make the stock stabs sound great

[exotic pewter]

Yeee I have lube and a grease syringe. I’ll probably add a bit when I’m out of work

[regal patio]

I think going with stock stabs is better than buying some

[exotic pewter]

What’d you swap to? TX AP stabs are pretty great from my past experience

[regal patio]

Atleast for me

Easier to tune and require less lube

[little glen]

typeplus x yikb are the best rn imo

[exotic pewter]

Yeah my he+ module was perfect after adding a bit more grease to the stabs. So I probably just need to do that today

[little glen]

knight v4 are good too

both of these dont require special grease, just 205g0

[exotic pewter]

Just threw the module in my case yesterday so I can get some gaming in before bed. I’ll tinker with it for sure

[exotic pewter]

Good to know! I’ll look into those. Thanks 🫡

[mellow leaf]

yall my stabilizers are dry as hell

someone wiped the stabs clean

[cyan lark]

We told you not to lick them.

[little glen]

You said no licking, nothing about no sucking

[mellow leaf]

i havent even touched the stabs

it was prelubed

[cyan lark]

https://tenor.com/view/notouching-arresteddevelopment-gif-8163704

Just goop 'em up, they'll be right as rain.

[exotic pewter]
