Curently using this https://www.gateron.com/products/gateron-ks-20-dual-rail-magnetic-orange-switch-sat?VariantsId=10779

but its old since the days when I got my wooting v1 and first dual rails came out. I am thinking of upgrading to something newer

Gateron

Tip: The magnetic switch is designed for magnetic keyboards(Hall effect keyboards), not for mechanical keyboards.Magnetic Keyboard Compatibility: This magnetic switch N-pole faces down to the PCB board; any keyboard model featuring downward-facing N-pole magnetic switches is compatible with this switch. Please check your keyboard before choosin...

Do you think they just released these cases so sander and marco could take a vacation on the company credit card

tropic urchin
#

What the fuck is that sound profile

glossy pagoda
cyan lark
#

If you put Raeds in this case your kb will be like 96% rubber

glacial wind
#

sound profile is just full silicone basically, it's like if you use the silicone dampening with the 60hev2

wispy wharf
#

Phone case for your 60he type shit

ionic breach
#

no case foam or silicone fits right?

#

just straight module?

calm pulsar
#

ppl probably thought someone put their module in a silicone dampening for a metal case

glacial wind
#

yeah no bottom dampening, just module inside

ionic breach
#

now we just need a metal travel case

little glen

Can i tray mount it PEPELA

negative, it's 100% squish chill type sound

sounds like the taste of a delicious green grape on a hot summer's day

it's silicone, not foam, so won't be in the 'thock' side of things

I have Cullinan on the way for my 80 HE. I'll put my Nova in my 60v2 that I can't decide what switches to put in it.

tropic urchin
#

Figured the Jade max v3 would be the less pointed one

little glen
#

I have them set up as one row each on my gaming keys

#

To see how they hold up over time

little glen
#

Maybe it was just an issue with shitty gateron

sacred elm
#

There won't be any sticking

little glen
#

I am gateron hater

sacred elm
#

Gateron used PC stem and that's why it had sticking issues

little glen
#

I see

sacred elm
#

Also dual rails

little glen
#

Imo, the switch selector should be sorted by quality of the switches, not alphabetically

#

Aka swap gateron and ws

sacred elm

Even stem

Once i have a full set of cullinans i can put those in and lube the horsies

Has anyone happened to derive a solution to the extreme rattling on the 60HE?

I have been a fan since day one and even pre-ordered this thing to be a part of the success of Wooting and their ideas.

However for as long as I’ve had this thing it has sounded like a poorly kept car driving down a gravel road.

This is the sound with just the weight of my fingers over the keys.

sly palm

glacial wind
#

as others mentioned just swapping the switches to a newer, less wobble switch will instantly improve the chatter/wobbly sound right away

sly palm
#

@glacial wind I am a little curious, will you update the price of switches on the recommendation sheet if they change? nyaThink

glacial wind
#

yeah, they get updated when i do the next sheet

#

for example ufo went down in price now, same with horses since they got the noble horse variant

#

weirdly xvx he went up in price

sly palm
#

Oh I see

glacial wind
#

the tricky one is always whether i list official pricing vs 3rd party because sometimes you get situation like flux where official pricing is $2 a switch and 3rd parties sell way cheaper

tulip dome
#

Thats a list of switches that would be compatible Id assume?

#

This is probably the V1 considering the date I got it, I believe

glacial wind
tulip dome
#

Alright gotcha

sly palm
glacial wind
#

problem is mostly sometimes more information isn't good

#

i had to scale back what gets put on the graphic because it was too much info before

sly palm
#

Yea I can see how the average Joe would get confused

glacial wind
#

honestly if someone wanted diamond cullinan and didn't want to spend much i'd send them towards flux jade

#

very similar sound signature

tulip dome
#

I will keep an eye out for this list and see what switches would work best

#

Thanks for your insight

somber scroll
#

The XVX switches have a rubber dome? Intriguing

glacial wind
#

technically not rubber but yeah similar idea and execution as the rubber dome thing

#

and they themselves say rubber dome sometimes to explain it so it's just easier to call it rubber dome

cloud crane
#

Xvx ec is gateway to topre robloxman

sage flicker
#

what's the reasoning for a silicone case? Sound profile/travel lightness? 😄

#

didn't see that one coming.

glacial wind
#

ask wis the designer

stray tiger
#

I love the sound of silicone cases for some boards. I tried the OG 60HE in one a while back and it wasnt amazing but was using the OG switches too

glacial wind
#

from what I understand it was roughly a fun pet project of his and wooting greenlit it as an official project once it reached a certain point. I'm sure wis can explain better on the next livestream though

#

so good to ask him since i only know roughly what we've heard in general meetings

stray tiger
#

The real question to ask is how bad does lint stick to it

glacial wind
#

actually not bad from mine, but i only had it out for a day so i can't say long term

stray tiger
#

I had one of the hibi june cases and after a few days it would be covered in lint lol

regal patio
#

It depends on the region and place where you buy them from

glacial wind
#

yeah that's the issue, it's such a wide range sometimes and dependant on place you're buying from

#

and with new switches it's even trickier, like cullinan do i list their official price or the launch pricing which i have no idea if it's staying

regal patio
#

I think it can scare some people off

#

Seeing that price

#

When you could get them for 1.5$ per switch from keybay

broken notch
#

If you don't research pricing you shouldn't be buying them imo

sly palm
glacial wind
#

end of the day that's on the companies, i have to put official pricing generally

regal patio
#

Sno do you have every single recommend switch list ever?

broken notch
#

We don't need to spell everything out exactly

glacial wind
#

i can't be the one having to do marketing on behalf of the switch brands, so they have to handle that on their side

glacial wind

#

Sno is testing the switches, not selling them :p

regal patio
#

I would love to see how it changed

regal patio
broken notch
#

I love the lists, they're great and they even get the community here talking every time

glacial wind
#

oh you mean past versions? there's only been a few honestly because we only update when there's changes and sometimes nothing much comes out for 3-4 months

broken notch
#

So aside from being helpful they're good topics to natter about too

glacial wind
#

switches have a habit of nothing much happens for 2-3 months then suddenly a whole ton come out at once

#

i think we've done maybe 3-ish switch lists now

broken notch
#

Did you see what they did to me Sno? WS sent me the test switches in the empty box of the glassware you got REE

I got so excited thinking I got one too!

2 ways this is possible

#

probably not very feasible though without either being kinda shitty or far too expensive

jade narwhal
#

is the silicone case limited ?

glacial wind
#

not necessarily but the first batch is quite small. It's an experimental product that we don't really know how popular it may be so the first batch of cases isn't that large

jade narwhal
#

an interesting product i would say.

glacial wind
#

so it's limited in that we only made a small batch of them so far basically and don't know how it'll perform and if we want more batches etc

#

but maybe it does well and we make more batches and more colors

jade narwhal
#

understand

any photo of the back of the case ?

does anybody have GravaStar UFO Magnetic Switches – Hall Effect Gaming in pruple, I wanna see how the RGB looks on wooting board with them

#

if there any purple tint to it?

cyan lark
#

Lots of folks have posted images of them, and I'm sure they have a purple tint since the housing is purple. Try searching for has:image ufo in this channel to find examples.

#

I don't have them myself or I'd provide one.

chilly mural
#

The silicone case gives me an idea: What if it's just a really really big friction fit.

#

need a custom case though, but extra thicc friction fit + thicc case (maybe) possible

cyan lark
#

But I also see the cleverness in being able to just lift the whole friction fit assembly w/ the pcb and plop it in a different case

Hiii, I’m looking to get a he board but there aren’t any designs that really work for me, I was hoping for something like a 80he with a split spacebar, but since that doesn’t exist I’m more so looking into a more custom keyb. Does anyone know where I should look for working custom he pcbs? I don’t mind printing one with a company, but designing my own he pcb is way outside my skill range. If anyone has any recommendations on resources I would appreciate it. Ideal board would be something like a split he colstag with f row and like extra keys on the sides, but ofc that likely doesn’t exist.

Guys ufo or nova

Idk what to do

#

Or raptor v2

sly palm
prime orbit
#

As long as it doesn’t go away that fast

chilly mural
#

Raptor v3 (in seriousness, I would go for nova because ufo long term wise is a bitch due to the difficulty/impossibility lubing without breaking the switch)

prime orbit
#

UFO only bad thing

#

Raptor v3 would be peak

sly palm
#

personally I would prefer Novas smile

#

but the choice is on you

prime orbit
#

I just care about stability and not loud switches tbh

tropic urchin
#

You’re not gonna get better than A/S stability, UFOs never felt more stable at the top than raptor V2s and they (raptors) have some crunchy springs, so all of the high end stability seems to have some blemish to them

#

I wouldn’t fomo UFO/Raptor, just get keytok and call it a day imo since it seems you’re after the quiet end of it

prime orbit
#

Ok so nova is the move

#

Bet bet

#

I shall listen to yall

#

For 60he v2 do I need to get 70? Or is getting 60 fine

sly palm
#

70

tropic urchin
#

Think the default is 70

#

You need what like 64 or smthn like that

sly palm
#

ANSI 61 ISO 62

#

and if split +2

prime orbit
#

On the website it’s only buying in 10 so yeah 70

#

I’m on split

tropic urchin
#

Yeah just get 70 and you’ll have some extras in case you need em

prime orbit
#

Oooo and they got added to the switch selector thing peak

prime orbit
#

Is there an aliexpress for them or website the cheapest

tropic urchin
#

What price are they on their main?

#

Think on Sno’s picture they’re $1.3 per

prime orbit
#

97 for 70

#

So yeah 1.3 I think

sly palm
prime orbit
#

Bet

sly palm
prime orbit
#

Also kind of confused

#

How are some switches like s/s+ stab but not on the list for the best stab?

#

Like the XVX

tropic urchin
#

Silent switches aren’t real so I wouldn’t worry about it

prime orbit
#

Aren’t real 😭

sly palm
#

other factors, as Varedis said silent switches aren't real dogekek

tropic urchin
chilly mural
#

Sometimes the switch might be 3.2mm bottom, maybe 3.4mm, if somebody's raging, maybe 3.5mm.

prime orbit
#

wtf

#

What’s the point of them then

chilly mural
#

Silence

tropic urchin
prime orbit
#

And how are they so good stab wise 😭

chilly mural
#

Idk, ask sno

tropic urchin
#

They’re also not even accurate due to their dampening mechanism

prime orbit
#

Hes gonna tell me I can figure it out in a k drama or something

tropic urchin
#

All around fade imo

#

Not worth it

prime orbit
#

Ok bet so nova

#

Heard

#

Will do

#

No more changing I promise

tropic urchin
#

Just use PC plate and keytoks

#

If you want maximum softness

chilly mural
#

It's only worth if you don't mind trading the stability lost by not having a noise complaint

tropic urchin
#

Should be gud

#

clack is the real hot shit

prime orbit

Should I get Pom or fr4? Idk what’s the second best

tropic urchin
prime orbit
#

Ah ok

tropic urchin
#

FR4 is more neutral, POM is kinda poppy kinda harsh if you don’t pair it with poron

prime orbit
#

Does the v2 come with poron? I don’t think so

tropic urchin
#

POM is a fun one for a deeper switch with poron

tropic urchin
#

I’m curious, how did you manage to break 3 PC plates @prime orbit

prime orbit
#

Every single time

tropic urchin
#

Did you bend it in half in rage

prime orbit
#

It was from taking out switches

tropic urchin
#

Tf

#

If you use a different puller from the Wooting default you should be fine

prime orbit
#

Yeah idk if it’s cuz I was using the wooting plastic one lol

tropic urchin
#

Unless you’re white knuckling that shit like it owes you money

tropic urchin
prime orbit
#

Nah I was being so careful on the 3rd one and it just snaps right where the switch is at

tropic urchin
#

Get the WS titanium or the TX AP one

#

The plastic is hot ass

prime orbit
#

It was on the space bar one time and the enter and the s key

prime orbit
#

Does it matter which one

#

Is one better

tropic urchin
#

Titanium has been my favorite

prime orbit
#

Kk

tropic urchin
#

Anything is better than the default

prime orbit
#

I was gonna get the ws tbf

#

Just never got around to it

tropic urchin
#

Should be like $12-15, best I’ve spent tbh

prime orbit
#

Do I need a keycap puller too

tropic urchin
#

You could keep the Wooting for the keycap side

prime orbit
#

Kk

tropic urchin
#

I have a random keycap puller from my Rog Azoth that I just use

#

You can also use your hands but ymmv

prime orbit
#

Yeah I tried my hands

#

Does not work 💀

tropic urchin
#

I’d prob just use it only for keycap pulling if you don’t want to get a new one

sly palm

#

prime orbit
#

Does plastic vs aluminum case make a sound difference

tropic urchin
#

Max came out when I bought my 80HE

#

I’d say so, I guess also depends on the plastic

#

If it’s the PCR plastic then that’s kinda not it

sly palm
tropic urchin
#

But I’ve never liked plastic for cases

#

So I’m biased

Cuz I got that

For now

Hopefully it’s better than the 80HE PCR

what are some fire keycaps for the 60he v2

hollow rivet
#

why is it so hard to find a keycap set thats black and white with a 1.25U keycap, a 2.25U keycap and a 2.75U keycap

Adding extra keycaps to a kit is quite expensive, especially for kits with a low MoQ(compared to mass production)

finally got the flux deep clacks put into the keyboard, the sound is amazing.

#

the soft clack is really welcome

#

but most of all that octagon stem box is so nice, I wonder why more manufactures dont just outright use it

tropic urchin
#

Think keytok novas and TTC horsies are recent examples

untold wigeon
#

I see, its really nice and feels nice and stable

#

now has me considering replacing my stabs with ones that have a box housing around it as well

tropic urchin
#

Yeah fluxes have been my favorite by far since they launched

untold wigeon
#

the spacebar rattles a bit now lmao

calm pulsar
#

maybe a more stable switch exposed not perfectly tuned stab

I think that's the name of the pcb

#

Quite expensive but it provides the most layout compatibility

#

Oh you want frow too

#

Welllll scrajj

#

thonk yeah there's no he pcb in TKL format with split SB. Only HE pcb I can think of with the most layout compatibility is one of the Venom HE PCBs in TKL layout, they provide 6.25u and 7u iirc, with split backspace but no split space bar.

Yeah hell nah there ain't no pcb that has colstag

Dang

fluid ravine

Colstag would be difficult to trace

#

For an HE pcb

What could I even do? I tried looking into custom designing my own but the community for that is so gatekeepy they make it sound like unless you have an electrical engineering degree it’s physically impossible to make one

fluid ravine

Sorry no luck

Dang unlucky I guess

There’s a few split 70% ortho he boards but since I’m looking for colstag it’s kinda :/

MX overrated

fluid ravine

Need to be more unique doe angry_noot

I find them to have a nicer punch than any of the other (esp wall stem) switches. Both MX and HE angry_noot

Tho I mustn't lie. Wall stem stability esp the Octangle stems from WS are coooookinn

Not that I care of smile

All that effort to have kinda mid stability smile

@sacred elm you said you wanted CF plate right

Gonna have to break out the good shiii

cf plate cullinanPepeBusiness

fluid ravine
#

I should test the diamond switches in CF

#

I think the resonance on the alu ruins it for me

#

Personal take

fluid ravine
tropic urchin
#

Or open bottom

fluid ravine
#

Could be the stem design

#

Idk

tropic urchin
#

They’re all kinda like that tho

fluid ravine
#

Just a hypothesis

fluid ravine
#

When I meant flux type nolds

tropic urchin
#

With the exception of a few but I’ll have to see

fluid ravine

#

I think Sno said they’re both kinda muted to some degree

Making the mids more emphasized

They feel weird imo

Poseidon is dog shit

It feels padded

Even though its not a silent switch

Throw up some plates on the barbell squat

I actually talked about my bad taste in therapy

Turns out taste isn't real and fashion houses have no pedigree because it's fake

Stupid human social nonsense

tropic urchin

Nothing is real

So yeah no preference has any merit

tropic urchin

Everything is fake

Solipsism aside

I'm just talking about preference

And people will choose a worse thing if a famous person likes it

Like the tenz pcr case

And the looting PBTFans crosshair caps

untold wigeon
#

anyone have suggestions to get rid of a little rattle when pressing the spacebar on my split v2?

#

its not loud rattling but its almoast like a small chatter after the first press

#

thinking it could be dry lub in the stabs

tropic urchin
#

You might need to rebalance it

#

Or lube if they are

untold wigeon
#

rebalance? like move the stabs to be straight up?

tropic urchin
#

So you wanna put the wire on a flat surface to see if any side sticks up slightly

untold wigeon
fluid ravine
tropic urchin
#

If it’s rattling probably might need to be straightened, if it’s lil chattery probably lube

#

I never really liked the default stabs anyway compared to knights

untold wigeon
#

One sec, I’m recording it

sacred elm
#

Just relube

fluid ravine
#

2 things

#

Relube

#

And keycaps

untold wigeon
#

am i hallucinating it? the spacebar on the right has no chatter

#

lube it is then thanks

#

keycaps?

fluid ravine
untold wigeon
#

whats wrong with them? these are the stock keycaps

#

but aye, will relube

#

gonna order some kryotox

sacred elm
#

You'll need thicker lube for stock stabs, 205 won't be enough

untold wigeon
#

any recomendations please?

fluid ravine

#

I SEE okay thats what you mean

CannonKeys

Swagkeys Knight V4 Stabilizers! Swagkeys Knight screw-in stabilizers use a doubleshot manufacturing method to achieve a nylon outer material with a silicone interior. This interior helps reduce the unwanted noise commonly found in stabilizers by helping lower the amount of rattle. Please note that spacers/shims are not

#

just making sure

cloud crane
#

Ye

untold wigeon
#

thanks twins

dumb question: for the new silicone case are you supposed to not use case foam?

fluid ravine
untold wigeon
#

might as well get new ones tbh, I dont like the stabs for how shaky they are

sacred elm
cloud crane
#

Glare is no more sad_joe

or just keep stock stab on right shift, who cares about right shift
