It forces your fingers to grip it a certain way, but over time your pinky starts to feel strained or atleast mine did claw gripping it
i mean is not bad compairing to the angry miao inf mouse
LOOK AT THE SIDE WHAT DA HELLLLLLL
Type shiii
Where the mouse? 
Ye but I don't see mouse only see holes 

Like this shit is the holy of the mouse world
pink car 
why does he look so plasti dip
theres a lot of glitter in whatever they sprayed this with
Being in this Discord
We love edging
Had to have been there
Mark
Yeah
Now i see
Is this a warranty case? When will you be able to send me a replacement?
Are lekker tikkens worth it?
y e s
If you like a 4 mm travel and don't care about precision stability/wobble that much, for sure 
Wobblemaxxer detected
I just need better sounding and feeling switches than l60’s 🥀
They were intended to be upgrades and better overall stock switches than the V2s, you should be fine with them unless you want better stability then you have other options
Ye
Ufo and flux’s are out of my price range, as well as nova’s
Tikkens should be fine then
Stability Doesn’t matter AS much while daily usage for me
They have good feel and decent sound
Little wobbly top for me but was my only real complaint with them
I’d say roll a dice between owlab ti he or tikkens depending on what’s available to you prob
Unless you don’t want bright clack then prob tikkens should be fine
I’ve heard that owl has too much of a high pitched sound
It was on my list but after i saw the reviews i just discarded it, i like it deep
Just get Tikkens if other options are expensive for you
Yep planning to do so
Fair
Have any of y’all used a shipment forwarding service?
What do you mean by precision
Shi my bad, Initially I meant precision at sensitive values, but in this context stability fits better in the response.
I just ctrl + c ctrl + v description from my list without thinking
You can get fluxes really cheap
Think he lives in a country that has it more expensive iirc
Did you see the alexotos vid about he switches
When the first switch poped up I thought: Is this a milktooh video?
It was sponsored by milktooth
Toronto KeyboardMan website

Ewww
i couldn't find any for a good price, do you reocmmend anywhere?
Ali
is it safe to get switches from ali? i ordered gravastar ufos there and hoping they will be authentic
Yes
Got those gradient key caps in. Texture is very fine on top, caps are well molded and thick
Had to boil the main stabilized keys and put a big book on them but they are flat now
R3 (A) key
Legend shine through is decent for how thick they are
Can't believe these were $15
which ones are these?
XVX purple gradient cherry profile
Amazon? I see some with side printed legends
Hold on lemme grab the link
Not sure if they are available outside the US on Amazon
fine choice, XVX has some really exciting sets
Thanks I hope they don't shine like the Wooting ones
them wooting knobs are gonna be made by raesha i have a goooood feeling
did you get the back lit version ?
for the wooting keycaps
Yes
I hope they fit ok as cherry profile on lekker Tikken
I also got some typeplus stabs
Cherry profile keycaps have no issues
anyone picking up some of those newer SWG sets
seems as though they are nice for the price
Thanks for confirming
@tropic urchin its the max 
interesting
i thought it was pro cause dongle
i have the max and it doesnt feel as light as the beastx pro/Ulx/Crazylight for me
even tho they're all comparable weight
Me 
Oh yeah you picking up euler
I'll probably skip euler but neowell looks nice
Neowell cool too 😛
do u have a pic of it
ouhhhh they prettyyy
oh so like gmk honeywell
My mini (non solid sides) is 35g iirc
And max solid side is 42?
Or 44
the mini is teeny tiny
im pullin the numbers from wlmouse
42 max
36 mini
39 pro
Yeah I had to stop using mine
Too small for me to even ftip
i like small mice, but not that small
FM SHILL 😝
is time to buy a hsk pro
i kinda want a hsk pro
Keycap set arrived today. I really like how this looks now. I fail as a Japanese person though. I had to look up why it’s called the Nichirin. I thought the word “sun” was an odd name for a grey set.
its a wink to demon slayer
Yeah, I found that out.
yeah i have that exact same set too
I just bought it because I thought it looked cool.
Nichirin would be fire on derivative mono grey 🤤
yeah its a very pretty set. The blue water dragon keycap made me come to that conclusion
I kind of want to buy the light grey subset for the face keys.
your case is silver correct?
It's the Anodized Grey one
oh
Ohh that's pretty dark, right?
Ish
on the website it is
I suddenly fell in love with bright silver
I have a light over my desk. Makes it look brighter in the picture.
Got a picture of it?
well if you get the lighter alphas it will look like this
lowkey want to see how the set looks in the dark grey gt80 case
This is without my over desk light on.
@sly palm
I don't know. I have to decide. I may buy it just to see if I like it more or not.
RAW aluminum mogs silver ano 😛
Looks neat
Camera is making it look brighter than it is. It’s kind of hard for me to see detail on it. I may just need better glasses though. 🤣
whats the brand of that red dac
i see it everywhere but always forget the name of it
It's not a DAC. It's my XLR interface. But it's a Scarlett Solo Gen 3. My DAC is a FiiO K11.
I have the Scarlett on top of my desk as I adjust the gain depending on the situation I'm using it for. Putting it out of the way isn't ideal.
Also my XLR cable isn't long enough to really move it. It's 10' long. But that's not really that much when half of it is fed through the boom arm.
You can use a Scarlett as an output device, but it can't output high resolution audio. You're better going with an actual DAC that supports high resolution than using the output channel on the Scarlett. Maybe Focusrite makes a device that will output high resolution, but the one I have will not.
Wannabe of the Rose75 Wannabe
i did
i thnk
LMAO
actually i have no idea why that particular short is going off on instagram
i was confused too
like your acc went onto my recommendations
the day before i think

it's doing fine on tiktok and youtube is slow as always because youtube algo is different, but instagram it's going crazy up to almost 50k now
just instagram decided this is the video apparently
usually yeah
yeah i did like the vid i just checked 
and always differences in views. Youtube is heavily based on what you watched recently and less 'meme' content, tiktok is the full meme content and instagram is somewhere in between normally for what content goes viral
but it's always weird to see. sometimes you'll have a video do 100k on one platform but barely get views on another

best i can tell is semi prepared/polished content seems to do well on instagram cause users scroll there expecting to see that sort of thing from brands they follow
but that's just vibes based assessment lol
Hi! I'm building a second keyboard with a Wooting 60HE v2 module in a Tofu60 Redux case. My other build is the Wooting Platinum edition, which uses the friction fit (screwless) system. Since the Tofu Redux is a tray mount with standoffs, do I definitely need to use screws for this one? Are there any specific mounting tips for the v2 module in this case compared to the Platinum setup?
you can just friction fit into tofu redux
just make sure you screw in one of the screws https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yFVUqHdHFVI
Older Wooting cases and third party 60% cases (such as the Tofu60 Redux) are not electrically grounded when friction fitting your Wooting 60HE(+) or 60HE v2. Here's how to fix that!

Thanks, what’s your recommendation?

🤔
Anyone using any switches that are low distance travel ?
how low are we talkin
Similar to low profile ? Hahah
Or at least lower than Jade's
I'm not even sure if low profile switches work on 80he
Koi koi koi koi
Sadly no, low profile ones are for the most part only exclusive to some keyboards
yeah ks20 on the wootings wont work with the existing lo pro mag switches, the magnets are slightly offset
i've used the nuphy air75he, very comfy since it's low off the table but i didn't notice any meaningful improvements
Jade Ultra
3.2mm travel
That's the lowest you can get I think
Ahhh
Hmm not worth then considering it's not that much compared to Jade's ?
I'm excited for UFOs lol
I see, I was actually tempted to buy that kB too
Yeah, not worth it. Jades have 3.3mm
do XVX Whispers work on the 80HE?
silent switch?
Diamond fluxxies?
looks like one of it
not sure if oceans heart is part of it
there's some structural changes so not recolors this time
CF plate is here
Their plate has noticeably tighter tolerances, UFOs barely move in this plate now
They were a bit loose in stock plate
I'm trying to mount my Wooting 60HE v2 module into a Tofu60 Redux using the friction fit method (using the friction pad, no screws/standoffs
I've run into an issue: the USB-C port is shifted to the right and doesn't align with the case hole, so I can't plug it in. I only removed the silicone feet before sliding it in
The tofu redux has a screw for the port
You can unscrew it and move the usb port hole cover to fit
Inside the case have a look inside and you’ll see the screw for it
you should have an orange keycap tool that came with your wooting
remove the keycap on the right side of your spacebar and you'll see a hole you can put the orange tool into to hook the tool into and pull out the module
What is meant by their plate? Some brand?
Thanks a lot
this is with holy60, thoughts
kinda tempted in trying a different case and ceramic keycaps
cf = carbon fibre
Yeah but their is whose
For example can be torontokeyboardman
ask them then, there's no brand for cf plates
torontokeyboardscam gets his from taobao
Interesting, i ordered plate there too but fr4, and wondering whether it also has tighter tolerances so that my ufos sit tight there
seems like a lot of unwanted resonance
is it hard if i buy the wooting module version to put it together myself?
no
Tikkens, because they're cheap with the module and good
damn really? i was looking at the gateron jades
Jades are outdated and not worth it anymore
so just get the lekker tikken mediums?
There are many switches better than Jades nowadays #🪛│modding_faq message
Yes
most he switches are
Depends on the keyboard
wooting 80he
60HE v2 comes with Lekker TIkkens, 80HE, 2HE and 60HE come with Lekker L60 v2s
Would you guys say that tapemod sounds better than stock 80he?
@sacred elm i’ve read that you bought TKM cf plate and said ufos sit tighter there, do you think it will also be the case with fr4 plate from there?
is there a big difference between the tikkens and the l60 v2s
Yes tbh
I can't tell
Is it an actual problem with stock plate and ufos?
it's more UFO problem, because they are a bit loose in some plates
alr guess im spending more for them
Tikkens sound and feel different, because they're closed bottom. V2s are open bottom
alr ty
Bro my postal company is actually trolling
They apparently picked up my deep clackies on Monday and it still hasn't moved 😭
that is an unfortunate misspelling by ttc
i guess those clear horses we saw were just mchose edition of same thing
let's all just look away and pretend we didn't see the typo until they fix it
hrm @ionic breach 35mm f1.8 + 16mm f1.8 for my travel kit or 24-50mm f2.8 + 16mm f1.8
i can't decide which way to go for my travel kit
i do already have the 24-70 gm2, but it's so big and heavy that I'm not taking it out unless I'm doing work
16mm f1.8 has to stay cause it's the perfect vlog lens, then have to pair it with something light and usable for non vlog
camera recommendation for beginner below 100eur thanks
i dont have one
that is a problem. Maybe it's time for you to invest in the $3k samsung tri fold
more screens must mean better
shouldnt i invest into a sony camera then if i spend 3k anyway
fake camera enthusiast
its actually doable
no no, you'd want to invest $5k for your sony setup
vintage cameras are a vibe
how are you going to afford your lenses with only $3k!
¯_(ツ)_/¯
arent they like 50bucks or smth
they are just some heated sand and plastic after all
that is true. He could go ultimate hipster and buy $100 worth of disposable cameras
it'd be very on trend
those cant video can they
like these types do quite well
you can do stop motion video if you take enough photos
then you're really max hipster trend
i really need a video camera at some point
zoom for me is just so intuitive
and basic editing and the camera i have is already like a cheat code
i dont think i really care abt F that much
it's mostly i can't decide if it's too wasteful to buy the 24-50 for travel when i could technically use backpack and bring the 24-70
well availability is a big thing
and 35mm f1.8 is really tiny lens
so camcorder or dslr/mirrorless for videos. are camcorders even still a thing?
yeah that's tricky one. I think my sling bag can fit either 35mm f1.8 or 24-50 as the second lens though, so either works
do people still buy those? Phones beat everything up to like $500 probably
the main pain with phones is... mounting to anything
cameras and camcorders all have handy screw holes
ehh, i still prefer cameras to phones
not to mention the zoom sucks on phones
i really hate the software processing on phones
its actually a pet peeve
ive seen like hacks and apps that let u take raw photos but its kinda a hassle
apple does raw now but only on later model iphones
i think 14 onwards or something like that
I like my picture raw
thats cool
@sacred elm would you recommend lubing ufo switches or not worth it?
pls dont
from what ive heard its much harder to open them
and its alr decently lubed
id use that day for fun stuff
If factory lube is decent then agree
But if its not - i will be thinking about it every keypress
have fun opening them
my old sony just has a setting for raw photos in the camera app
tbf it also has a shutter button
you can't
Watch a video on how to open the UFO if you're intent on lubing them. They don't open like every other switch. More headache than its worth imo.
I'm happy with the factory lube on mine though.
My purple and white keyboard is even purple and white underneath the key caps.
One of the cons of non standard funky ahh mold 
They definitely have a unique shell shape.
Uhh for those with koi rgbs is this an issue? When i pull the keycap out the switch comes off together too
That happens sometimes with tolerances
Long as it’s not coming off while gaming it should be fine though generally
this doesn't look like pom stem to me
@tulip phoenix is it a bit hard to remove the keycap from the switch?
Yep, its really on there
I got both the ice ultra and koi rgb and they sound the same to me lol
then that's probably because of PC stem and these specs are just wrong
I guess we shall wait for the gateron nylon housing + pom stem then 
like a Topre switch but for HE boards
Well at least for me every one of the keycaps pull the switch out and idk if thats good or bad
I don't think that's good.. at least not how it should work 
@young viper glass shrimp L?
Does this also happen to you?
Is there a chance i put it in the wrong way..?
#🔧│keyboard_modding message it is probably what shafie said
this happened to me with jade max too
It shouldn't be like that, but it won't harm the switch soooo
Yeah, I think this is normal. I remember Jade Maxes had this, because of PC stem
Damn
koi rgbs are fake kois 
I'm upsetti now
It could be just really tight stems too initially
maybe their tolerance for the stems was a bit too big
Or the opposite side which could be their housing is just a tad on thin side for fit
This was happening with the Flux Deep Clacky for me even with the 60 v2's FR4 plate.
So not even specific to your Koi's. Just different tolerances between housings.
Yeah, it happened a few times on the rgbs for me. But never on any other switch and cerakey has somewhat tight tolerances
We got gaslight

Better than fitting too tight
For sure

Only keytok nova owners now what I am talking about
The Nova's aren't coming out of my 80HE. Not with how much effort it took me to put them in.
After using both the UFO and the Nova for a bit, I think I'm happier with the Nova the most of the switches I've tried. But it could just be that I like my 80HE more than my 60 v2. But I like the 60 v2 more than the TenZ. The TenZ is just a decoration piece at this point.
You can’t say th…

I use it everyday just like any of my other decorative keyboards 
After 2 ish days the bonarchs slapped the crown off my top pros, sad but rumbly day
Gib top pros
Ill replace its crown 
Won't be as rumbly

I gotta have my backup 😅

I would monitor r/avexchange doe

no im not fucking the vaporeon
Are you sure?

Odd thing to proclaim unprompted
yes im sure
i know those people
Those people who do?
It's almost like one of the nervous exclamations
You're not making your case stronger haha
IM NOT INTERESTED IN A FISH
I did not hit your car!
Meanwhile, car = hit
Not enough fur for you? 
i need a
imitation ivory keycap
No you don't
Also, imitation ivory is just as illegal as real ivory
what
artifial ivory
You sure about that?
Jurisdictional dependant but yes
i thought something like elforyn super tusk which puts dye that shines under UV light to differentiate from real ivory was fine
no
If you can't discern authenticity, you'll be in trouble
No, imitation ivory (synthetic, plastic, or resin) is generally not illegal to own or sell, as it is a manufactured alternative to real ivory. However, it is illegal to label real ivory as imitation, or to use fake ivory to disguise the sale of illegal ivory.
Dashi, is this an ai response? :(
idk i just googled
Maybe I'm thinking of eagle feathers
but you're right its the stupid google ai prompt
Eagles are too American clearly
Oh wait no the eagle thing is that having eagle feathers is just as illegal as poaching eagles
I mean selling moose meat to someone is considered poaching
Offering to buy moose meat is also poaching
Can only be given not sold
I read a story the other day about an all female group of antipoaching rangers in Kenya
They are apparently entirely unarmed, which I find strange, but I guess it works?
Do you ever read chat and wonder. How did we drift from keyboards to all female antipoaching groups in Kenya? I did. Once. 
we love edging
Hahahahaha
If I was a genetically significant specimen of a critically endangered species, I'd want my guards to have guns
I'd want them to have trained snipers tbh
Functionally extinct 
So sad really
I love the mimikyu one
sylveon is also awesome
odd question but does anyone know of any cases i could buy for a 60he that have that "floating/exposed" switch design (like in pic 1) compared to the case covering everything but keycaps? (like in pic 2)
Simple
Get a normal case and chop off the sides
toothache
Wuque Diamond when
crunchy
Ew I would never
Currently got the novas on board but I got my flips and horses today 
Haven’t tried yet but a few ppl have tried
Alr
I have the nova's and I love them
The only downside of the nova's is the price
And 1000 boxes that it comes with
yeah i would agree on thtat
so upon testing
its subtle
but i rather have the horses than the ttc
imo
horse less clack
Both are TTC 
flip a lil more
thas true
:3
but since i just game and i try to find which switches i like for sound
sound novas but for just pure games id say horses over novas
yeth
i actually hear the hooves
Jade's have the hifi mahjong sound 
i was just spamming sd and i actually hear it 
Nice
i feel like i have to ask for wooting software but i'm pretty sure its fine to have different switches right?
cause am on beta wootility
Ye
Choose them on switch selector
TTC horses and flip's are on the list
And nova's
Just select the keys you have switches on
boom
might put one on left ctrl and another one
im pretty sure i bought 8? for both flips and horses
i can't even recall

Gn
Crunch
Gn
gn lander
I love my novas so much
And since I don’t use the deep clacky flux anymore, my friend can have some good switches for free when he buys his own wooting
… and returns my 80HE
After redoing my uwuting buddy case from a year ago and recieving some positive feedback for making it angled, i was thinkging of remaking it to have an adjustable angle. im not entirely sure how to fix it in place at the right angle tho. I would appreciate some inspiration <3
so far i have a kickstand but that obviously wont work
the hinge is just a 1.9mm hole which you stuff a length of filament through then flushcut it
Question, gt-80 for wooting80he or keep my raw zinc alloy case? Which has better sounds
It depends on your preference which sound you like more
Zinc (slightly deeper) vs GT80 (slightly brighter) doesn’t have a crazy sound difference, the biggest diff is prob the ball catch and coating difference (silver GT80 not having flow marks)
wdym brigther
you put the foam in there?
Zinc is slightly heavier
You can put stock foam in or use other foam if you want (poron foam would be a good choice if you want to mute some of the higher frequencies and get it closer to zinc)
Poron usually my go to
i have a zinc alloy raw can i use that foam?
Can I use the stock wooting80he foam i have in my raw alloy zinc into my gt-80?
Probably yes
<@&1098943457654997093>
Yo guys, Im Planning a Wooting 60HE V2 Module build with Gateron Jade Magnetic Linear Ultras (3.2mm). Are TX AP Screw-in (1.6T) Long Pole stabilizers the right ones to match the travel? Also, for pure speed/perf, are these Jades still the best for wooting? Thanks!
Jades are outdated
This is the Jade Ultras specs
We are well aware what the Jades are
There are newer and better nowadays
Check #🪛│modding_faq
Specifically the latest posts
jade ultras are fine, they're just not fotm
jades arent the best anymore
Fr? What is bro im looking for the best switches performance wise. Both Gemeni and chatgpt told me the new jade ultras were best for performance
dont listen to the ai
So if you know better ones lmk what is and ill check it out
its all slop that doesnt know shit
they always say jade jade jade jade bro jade is ass
Haha true but thats why i came here as well to ask
Fr why is it ass?
old and outdated
if you want something good today check out ws flux (deep clack version), ttc horse, gravastar ufo, lekker tikken, keytok nova
they should also be on the switch selector so the performance will be as good as possible
I am buying the new wooting 60he v2 and i get lekker tikkend with it i think since im buying pre built
i personally have the flux, ttc horse and tikkens and can vouch for all 3
But im lookin for something better then lekker tikkend
yeah if you are happy with tikkens then keep them
they are good enough for 99% of people
I have ocd and love to have the absolute number 1 best everything performance wise
So i want the absolute best ones that will help the most performance wise and also with the newst and best tech
if you are sensitive to wobble, try deep clack flux, ttc horse or gravastar ufo
Ok ill check em out
the performance is all from the keyboard itself
as long as the switches arent completely terrible they will have comparable performance
The switches do add a lil slight performance imporvment such as shorter travel distance / no wobble and things like that
shorter travel does not affect performance
wobble is also not really an issue as long as its not lekker v1 levels
again, any one of these is best in class
just compare the sound on the soundtest site and see which one you like more sound wise
would anyone know anything? 
not a thing
Ok will do thanks for your help
shucks
thats just opinion

There are low profile cases
but my opinion is the correct one, have you considered that
if you want floating switch design the top part of the case would have to be the plate
i didnt ask for criticism i just wanted to know if there were such cases
honestly you can probably 3d print something that works
hmmm yeah maybe
nothing like that on the market, will be a custom solution
gotcha
babao60he in dragon60 case build vid
you love those chinese custom builder videos huh
yea i do
i clicked on it, super hyper video with the guy yelling, i click in the middle and its all chill and calm music
???
the guy switches it up sometimes
I fact checked @little glen s opinion with chatgpt and it's true
I fact checked with the resident ai larpers at youraislopboresme, it's true
Chatgpt recommends white KS-20's for a deep thocky sound

Honestly switches don't really matter for performance
If they are in switch selector they will be fine
Bro I just checked but MaxGaming has just the Gateron Magnetic Jade Ultra Linear Switches and the Flux ones u said but they are too expensive for me so do you think the Jade Ultra are better then the Tikkens I get on 60HE V2 or worse? even if they are a bit better ill buy em
you can get flux for cheap on aliexpress
0.5$ per switch sometimes
yea but im wondering if I should but the Gateron Magnetic Jade Ultra Linear Switches for my 60HE V2 and change out the tikkens with the Jades Ultras
I checked with creamgpt and it said raeds better
nah dont wanna do that gonna order everything from MaxGaming already got like 12 things in my cart
there arnt many on maxgaming
Try ali
thats why im asking is it worth to upgrade to the jade ultras the new ones that just came out recently or no
as I just said above I wanna order everything from inside norway (from MaxGaming one website)
so my question is should I change out the lekker tikkens from 60HE V2 with Jade Ultras or no point just leave the Tikkens?
Just leave tikkens
Try them first and find out
problem is Im gonna order everything at once the keyboard, mouse, mousepad and everything so I wanna order the switches now as well and I heard good things about the Jade Ultras + they are on MaxGaming so I can just add em to the order (But I dont wanna downgrade if they are a downgrade from the tikkens)
Lekker Tikkens Medium are better than Jades
Personal opinion, but yes
even better then the new Jade Magnetic Ultras that came out recently?
Chatgpt is not hearing about switches btw
Jade Ultras have less bottom wobble but the top wobble is bad
Chatgpt flat out lies
Yes
damn fr?
You keep asking for our opinion then refute it though
Do your thing monsterman
I believe in you!
haha nah cuz then I cant buy no other switches
maxgaming doesnt have the ones u guys recommended me
Buy flux on aliexpress later
If for some magical reason you're unhappy
But you won't be
Ill check it out but in norway its fucked to order from other countries cuz you need to pay 30-50% plus on the price when It arrives and also long waiting times
Oh so is maxgaming selling Jade Ultras for over $1/pc? yikes
Doesn’t gravastar have an eu site?
yea XD
Please, don't buy them for that price
I checked out other places but Idk where I can get it cheaper (overall with delivery and the taxes I will pay when it arrives) and max gaming its free delivery and no tax
so for me it would be maybe more worth
At the price you’re paying just buy ufo from gravastar eu site
There's gravastar.de, order ufos from germany
are they from sweeden or norway if not I gotta pay 30-50% tax on top of price and delivery
Ill get cooked on tax there tho but let me see
They’re EU, do you still get hit by that tax?
they dont even ship to norway
yup
only norway and sweden I dont
I think
lemme check
I thought eu had better deals in place with each other
r they better then ultras?
They have better top wobble
also you can check switch database and compare them https://link.wooting.io/soundtests

Hi! I am searching for a switch that has the least amount of "scratchyness" (feeling wise, not sound) with a similar initial/bottom-out force than the Lekker L45 V2 swtiches. I tried the L45s, GEON RAW, Tikken and Gateron Jade. All of them feel scratchy too me when pressing the keys down repeatedly.
(I hand lubed the L45s but still no improvements)
Are you sure it’s scratch or you might be describing something else maybe?
If you hand lubed and still have scratch as well as trying all of those options then I think you might be feeling wobble or something else
There’s very low chance every single one of those switches is scratching, especially after trying hand lube
Yeah that is a good question. When i keep the key stable and slowly press up and down without "bottoming out" i can mostly "reproduce" it. In that case there is no wobble involved. It gets worse when slightly applying more force to f.ex. the left side of the key i.e. tilting it a bit. I can feel "something" touching although by tilting it it might be expected. I might be oversensitive to this though tbh, but gaming a lot i can feel it quite often.
Maybe try deep clacky flux if you can order from aliexpress, they're cheap there. They don't have that scratchy feel if you press them offcenter from my experience
honestly best might be to try small sample pack of something a tad more stable like say try just a few of the deep clack and see if it's stability related from the tilt rubbing on the sides
because if it's not then there's no fix for what you're describing as that friction feel is already as low as you can get it with say tikkens that was lubed
Yeah, I haven't noticed anything like that with tikkens, but did notice with jades and raws in the past
interesting yeah that makes sense. any other switches besides the deep clacky i cuold try?
Ice Ultra maybe, but I think deep clacky Fluxes are the safest switch to get if you're sensitive to wobble and smoothness
thanks for the tips! 🙂
rotor alu caps: https://item.taobao.com/item.htm?id=991391446299
really cool design actually
Too bad it's so pricey
Alphas only 27 keys 1280 yuan
Numbers + symbols 22 keys 980 yuan
it's pity metal caps sound so awful, because they do look really cool
Those pink ones are goargeous
Has anyone gotten their Zoom64 case yet?
hmm cant get the flux deep clacky for a reasonable price. anything else i can try with more smoothness? jade ultras? 🤔
Have you checked aliexpress? They are cheap there
yeah, sadly not available in germany 😄
ohh nice, google brought me to a different page. thank you!!
Do i need different stabilizers for the flux? (currently have the stock from the wooting 80he)
no
Deep Clack Fluxes should be way better
Than the jade ultras
I looked into what you guys told me the GravaStar UFO`s and I wanna buy em so badly. I found a company that does package forwarding from Germany to Norway but then I need to pay like 35euro on shipping plus another 20-25 euro when it arrives in Norway so over like 120+ euro for em
It’d be way too early for most
I don’t think first units even start shipping until April
group buy model takes awhile to delivery normally
I was hopeful
I feel like mine will be later anyway
Since I went through a third party seller
Gateron says that their delta switches are clicky
Is that true?
"Defined by a profoundly satisfying click"
126$ per 90 btw

the iconic gateron sound
no
Chatter 
Why do they say that than
Click ≠ clicky
looks nice
they ship worldwide, atleast into the EU, i dont think you need a separate package company
they dont, only EU and Norway isnt in the EU
its in Europe but not in European Union
true
They ship to Norway from their USA website but not from their German website lmao
Make it make sense
oh you are from Germany?
yep, on the german page atleast they say "worldwide" but i didnt go into checkout to see what it would say for norway address, probably exludes it then
yea no norway here
when i checked them i read they have a lot of friction due to how tight they are. thats why i didnt consider them further. if you are not super set on them there might be better options
I want the best option possible bro I been lookin at Jade Ultras thinking they were best then someone from here told me these UFO switches were best
would u maybe by any chance be down for me to order the switches to you and then you send it to me in Norway I would pay for everything and if can even pay you like 10-15$ if you would be down
if not I understand
Not a lot of friction, but it's a bit noticeable compared to something like Flux, especially if you press them offcenter
so is Flux better or worse then UFO`s?
I wouldn't say one is better than the other, they are both good
Just sound preference
And they feel different
I dont think there is "the best" when it comes to switches. Too much preference going on but i understand where you are coming from. Any switch you see on the modding_faq recommended switches picture are candidates for "your best". If you choose one of the more popular ones you cant go wrong imo. Lekker Tikken are considered very good by a lot of reviewers.
im listening to their sounds they sound about the same ngl
No sorry 🙂
They definitely sound different in person
Also i assume you want the very best for competetive gaming? Check what the pros are using, mostly Wooting keyboards with the lekker switches (now probably going for lekker tikken). That can be an argument for you to go with the tikkens if it helps you
yea, I want the absolute best and I am buying a prebuilt 60HE V2 so I think I get the new lekker tikkens installed on it if im not wrong? But I like to customize my stuff (but ofc only to upgrade it not to downgrade so if there are any better switches id like to buy em)
yeah the 60he v2 has the lekker tikken, it also says it in the description text when you order it, so you can double check it. Considering what pro gamers use, a lot of youtube reviews and comments on here, the tikkens are one of the absolute best you can get. No need imo to try and get something else right now except once you have them and you have a specific problem with them (too light / hard to click or something like that).
Choose switches for sound
Most of the popular switches are available on switch selector
but sounds isnt the only thing I care about I want them to not have any wobble, not have stiffness, I need them to be linear, and no other imperfections like scratchiness and stuff also need to be very smooth
tikkens have quite a bit of wobble imo
ok thanks
I don't think you quite understand what performance is with switches
They're all very similar
You don't have an edge over someone using other switches
I get I dont have an edge ofc
It's about sound and feel, not performance, at all
I am just saying I want the switch with least imperfections
and nicest feel
smoothes
Brotha how do you want me to phrase it lmao
I want the switch thats the smoothes
no tactical switches
No, you're not understanding it
You pick what you want, you can't force us to say "these" are the best above all
That's not how it works at all
Ok bro, cuz thats what im tryna do btw
I am just asking
whats the smoothes with no stiffness no scratchiness and things like that
No you arent lmao, you are just over here calling me out and everyone else is giving me good info
OMG I am not saying better
I am saying better imo cuz I care about
stiffness and smothness
Iirc the UFOs could be a good bet 
I just woke up and could mix up things lol
Yet you keep bringing up performance? Hence my confusion
yea cuz in my opinion stiffness is a part of performance, and I know its subjective preferance but still if its stiff I wont be able to press it exectly to which point I want
How can we know what you want if you fill in words with your own meaning?
yea the UFO`s are fire but I cant buy em in Norway
I dont understand what ur tryna ask?
I said what I am looking for
Same, to be honest
You should get flux, and you'll be happy, even with lekker tikkens medium you will be
They're both very good switches
Thanks thats the feedback im looking for
In your opinion is it better then the Lekker Tikkens, in terms of feel, stiffness, smoothness etc
Flux? Yes
ok ill look into them
Oh you can't get em there?
Not even over 3rd party?
Though it's so subjective I don't think you'd know if you have one or the other
I genuinely suggest starting with the lekker tikkens
You need a baseline anyway
And the wooting comes with them stock
There's no sense spending money before having felt them imo
If you're unsure what else to get
Only the 60HEv2 and the Tenz come with them stock
No reason to regret it if you’re using them on Wooting
I love you Coin, but he said he is buying a 60he v2
Hence my reply
Well.. didn't read all chat
That's fair :3
I can its just gonna be around 50-60 usd in shipping
Fair fair

Have you looked for a different seller with less shipping? Or a local seller even?
Don't underestimate the tikkens simply because they're stock
I tried to find local but none sells it locally the only ones I found are from official website in US and Germany
Thats what I been kinda doing ngl
UFOs are on the upper upper end of expensive too
I thought since they are stock there must be better ones
would u say I should go out of my way to get the UFO`s and do you think the stiffness on them is a deal breaker or not?
compared to lekkers v1 and v2? yes
compared to aftermarket, not really 
imo but thats just me
I wouldn't get any for now
Especially if they're so hard to get
Ok, what do you think about the tightness on the UFO tho thats the only thing that scares me from them
True, I don't disagree but I don't think it's worth the hassle to get UFOs
Tikkens is the newest Wooting switch.. there would be no reason to use it if it's not good 
You got to break them in like new shoes
Then the stiffness is gone
In my opinion
damnn thats how it works
Mine aren't stiff anymore at all, or I got used to it. Your mileage may vary
I personally have UFOs
Mine never felt too stiff for example, so in essence i don't even know what others mean by that.
what do you rate them? is it the best switch u used so far
well yeah, the top end switches are almost always never worth it unless you are looking exactly for that they give
But I never had lekker tikkens
Also tikkens would be way cheaper with the 60hev2.. guess it's $20 or something. Pretty good price
I have only used UFO and v2s
I liked tikkens but realized I prefer shorter switches so I use Novas on my 80HE and UFOs on my 60he+
Since I only bought a 60he v2 module
and hows the ufos feel you happy with them?
Dude youre making me want to buy them hahaha
ahh yes, the Invasion Leader welcomes the enlightened earthling, be prepared for Phase 2 cleansing of your world. 🛸
but fuck it ill listen to you and wait first to try out the lekker tikkens and then see if I want the ufos
If you think a little less about being hyped I personally would do exactly that in your situation
Since the tikkens aren't even a choice
They're just there regardless
Due to a prebuilt 60he v2
yea
If you find them too wobbly or whatever you feel, you can easily slide a bunch of cash over to a reseller
But as most people can attest, it takes a week or so to get used to a switch
So break in those tikkens first imo
See how you feel about them
Also, there are always new switches
Maybe some better and cheaper version of the UFO drops
Ws diamond?!
Cheaper is unlikely, since every new switch is now around that more expensive range, but better is possible perhaps
thing is for me its also a bit of an ocd thing I like to customize my stuff a lot I have a thing for customizing so thats also why I wanna change out my switches so much
also yeah where the eff is Diamonds at
I get that. But there's no race this time :p
i thought they said there gonna be more info or a date very soon on that teaser
ive modded 4 of my own boards so far 
and another 2 of my friends
Where did you order your UFO switches to and from? if its not a secret?
must be fun bro haha 🙂
I bought them from gravastar directly like on accident
Like for real, I wanted to see price and it bought them
its fun till you look at your transaction history
So I was like w/e
AHAHAHA
I hate when that happends XDDDD
Type shit

it's a small price to pay for happyness
I like my UFOs, yes
i paid a slightly bigger small price of 150$ for mine
and this is why we pay in cash 
its like its never left the account
yea but I was asking to which country did you order it too and from which website USA or german one
Your rakka config was about 600 no?
yeah
Atleast until february kek
I bought them from the gravastar official site and I'm in Belgium
Imma a little confused 
How much you got for 150?
Ah ok you are in the EU its chill for you
its my best sounding creation yet 
87 pieces
80he hopefully can sound like my rakka
Release price was just high
when im done modding it
nearly 1000 CNY
So a little under 2 per switch
still hurts
its around 600-650 now, 500-550 on sale
Nedry is standing on my tin
idk i never did the per switch math, i like to just calc with 85-87 pieces
You wouldnt myb be nice enough to let me order it to you and then ship it to me 🙂 (Ofc I pay for everything and can give u 10-15$ for the hustle) If not I 100% understand
That's incredibly sketchy, for you
I trust you tho
I dont think ud scam me
I would do it but you have no assurances this way, if the package gets lost or anything
It's about 1.72
Your welcome
I would advise not doing it this way :(
W maffs
But, I can
Why would it get lost?
this is why kois are the best 
Like, I do have a postoffice next door
DM me and we'll make it work assuming they're in stock
Pinkies still not in stock :/
Kois are so specific to this very channel it's funny
thanks to @young viper for paying import fees 
I sent you a dm ill let you know if I decide to buy it 🙂
Soju’s novelties are like 1/2 of the budget 
Shafie trying to bring down the koi cult
sojus novelties arent as much as gmks 
soju caps kit tho was about 1/3 of the budget
But still
Bad thing I am planning on to get my fingers on sojus
Need koi v2s with nylon housing + pom stem
I love your sojus
one day silver gt-80 case will be mine 
GMK Arcade 👀
exactly what i wanted at first, now who knows
Easier access outside of China would also be good.. so Sno tests them
*So wooting add it to the calibration list
you cant bring down a recolor from 2025 
Trueee
But koi gud fihh
duhuk herz wants their switches back fam
koi hate so forced 
I think it's very funny
The KOI hype
I mean i can hype up Neo lavenders that doesnt make them good
I only bought into them cuz they're so cheap 
And I want to try their leds
Before getting like novas or clip clops
Well, their shine rather than leds of course
im better at spreading propaganda then you
you should have seen the UFO hate, until i only had them and had nice things to say from experience, most of the responses were negative
after all i am chinese
thats because i dont spread propaganda, i spread truth
theres a difference
Oh, I remember you having them when I arrived here
and i dont mean jakubrix truth either
I was non biased at all
I just hate the VERY non standard mold

I liked your lil review
this is December Trips
