[sullen dagger]

Waiting for the speckles

[warm garnet]

I pray for my wallet

[torn belfry]

65% to 75% would’ve been better sadly

[warm garnet]

75% maybe, definitely not 65%

[ocean atlas]

I'll sell my house to fund my purchase this is game changing

[arctic ibex]

Hope the price don’t too high

[floral geode]

[thin peak]

I have a wooting 60he and I love it, this will be a great product

[zenith jasper]

Chill guys 8k rapid trigger 75 keyboard>>>>>K70 MAX

That key port actually kinda smart ngl.

[potent bluff]

I want the translucent one so bad!

[ocean sun]

how much it?

[velvet zinc]

send free pls

[potent bluff]

you can't just beg a company to give you something.

[sturdy tangle]

Still waiting for a knob version of the two he. that keyboard would've been perfect for me if it has a knob 🙏

[supple valley]

well he can...but its unlikely to work

[quaint orbit]

pls free send to me 🙂

[echo apex]

Man I just paid for a 60HE too

Wonder if I can change it to an 80HE

[potent bluff]

Yeah I know, of course he can try. But i'm saying don't expect much.

[clear grail]

why would they let you do that

[echo apex]

I mean, I can pay the difference

[quaint orbit]

i got one for free 😮

[arctic ibex]

today I just decided to buy 60he then I will wait it

[clear grail]

just cancel the 60he and buy the 80he then..

[echo apex]

Just get both maybe lol

[dusty summit]

this is going to be my next keyboard

[zenith jasper]

In fact, some companies offer free gear to professional gamers

[quaint orbit]

like me 😊

[uncut eagle]

So at this moment and time, there are no aluminum cases for 80HE?

[velvet zinc]

I’ll Harry Potter you bucko

[velvet zinc]

yuh huh

I jus did

[thin peak]

I just bought my 60he

time to get the 80he

holy shit

[rocky shoal]

I got the 60he a couple months ago and it's awesome but I do miss those f keys and arrow keys. I really want the 80he!

[thin peak]

I mostly use the q10 from keychron for software engineering

alice keyboard for working is goated

[crisp vine]

Have a h60 time to grab that h80 too

[arctic ibex]

use wooting plan delay waiting 80he

[jade fog]

[mighty ruin]

Why does the 80he have such a huge bezel compared to the 60he?

Or does it just look like that?

[uncut eagle]

Was gonna buy keycron HE but I’ll just stick with wooting

[steady glade]

Anyone know how much or na

[sharp phoenix]

We will reveal pricing, options and perks next week

[rain helm]

The founder edition will be with the zinc alloy Erik ?

case*

I hope so that the pre built one will be with the L45 switches and not the L60

[pseudo widget]

[stoic sand]

w00t

[steel blade]

Release it faster

[half chasm]

Really wish the feets were integrated and had a kick-flip style mechanism instead of those 3d-printed looking things

[sullen dagger]

No. Good products take time. Although wooting already is really fast.

[steel blade]

My keyboard broke and my replacement is from the 90s give me a break

[oblique dew]

^

[calm oracle]

After 3 wootings, now this… 🫤
Going deeper in the keyboard rabbit hole 🥶

[steady jacinth]

Just waiting for a TKL so I can use it not only for gaming 😅

Anyway good to see that they improved a lot of things on the 80!

[sullen dagger]

The 80% layout is exactly what I needed!
I need function keys, delete and print keys, arrow keys. And that (and only that) is there with the 80he. Can‘t wait to preorder it!

[weak vigil]

It can't be helped because it's a gasket mount.

[iron ermine]

Buying

[sonic marlin]

Buying it eventhough I already have my alu 60he

[latent mantle]

Cool, I'll be part of the founders 🙂

[spring glacier]

How much is it? I’ll still buy it no matter the price just curious

[spring glacier]

No way Osamason im listening to you right now

I’ve been your supporter since 40k monthly listeners gang

[trim yarrow]

what is founders campaign?

[solemn lintel]

Looking forward to getting my first wooting keyboard, will join founder campaign for 80HE when it's available. The updates really sold it to me, Ergonomics & Feet update the most to be honest because low profile, as gaming is important to me. I love the videos and communication overall. Everytime a new video comes out it's fun to watch and I learned some new things as i'm new to keyboards.

[sinful gorge]

Pre orders and more info

[trim yarrow]

oh nice

and the realise?

[sinful gorge]

Its price will be revealed at the campaign. Most likely $200-$220.

[sinful gorge]

The release is campaign. They will be shipped out in summer.

Summer/Q2-Q3 of 2024.

[trim yarrow]

thanks so much

im from argentina, what is q2.

[sinful gorge]

Q means quarter. Late in quarter 2 or early in quarter 3 of 2024 is when the 80HE will be shipped out.

[trim yarrow]

thanks for the explanation

[sinful gorge]

👍

[trim yarrow]

another question

what is the difference between l45 and l 60

linear and tactil?

[rapid merlin]

Hey I just watched the yt video. So can I assume if I want the expensive case that I will have to self assemble?

Speaking of the alu. I guess the video wasn’t clear on exactly how many premade options there were gonna be. Just one or several?

[ivory ridge]

LETS GOOO

[foggy belfry]

[sinful gorge]

No, L45 and L60 are the force it takes to press a switch. 45gram endforce for the L45s and 60gram endforce for the L60s iirc.

There are no magnetic tactile switches compatible with Wooting’s boards yet sadly.

[sinful gorge]

It’ll be clear once the campaign launches.

[trim yarrow]

so 80he is not going to be magnetic?

[rapid merlin]

Yes magnetic, no “magnetic tactile”

[trim yarrow]

oh

my bad

sorry

[lapis nacelle]

gyat

[rapid merlin]

Of course the board is called 80he, so they need 80 gram switches

https://tenor.com/view/sable-cute-dog-derp-gif-14862657

seeing a cool keyboard but its 200 dollars

[brisk oasis]

@normal storm

ok I go now

[sterile hornet]

Those 8k would also have to be supported by my PC, right? because if so, byebye pc

[trim yarrow]

yes, you must have high speed usb

i saw

but i dont now

[sterile hornet]

anyway it's probably not going to be enough for me 😿😿😿

[sterile hornet]

money*

[trim yarrow]

its very expensive

i understand you

[sterile hornet]

how much?

200 dollars?

the 60he, I think it cost 180

[trim yarrow]

yes

but at this moment

im playing with a redragon kumara

i hate it

so i really need it

[sterile hornet]

oh sorry brother

[trim yarrow]

how much money do you have?

[trim yarrow]

JAJAJA

[sterile hornet]

I highly recommend the 60he, I honestly don't know what the 80 is going to be like, but I really liked the 60he

[sterile hornet]

7 pesos mexicanos

[sterile hornet]

xdd

[trim yarrow]

yes, but for the difference about the prices, i actually prefer the 80he

[sterile hornet]

Well yes... 20 dollars more is not that much but, that plus shipping, customs, and something else that they are going to charge you

and honestly, the 60% format seems very comfortable to me.

aduana*

[trim yarrow]

im not going add something

beacause if you buy something to customize i will be very expensive

[sterile hornet]

I was referring to the shipping, sorry, I'm mostly using the translator xd

[sterile hornet]

ah yesyes xd

[trim yarrow]

maybe i will buy something on aliexpress xd

[sterile hornet]

wtf, will he be there?

I see it easier on eBay

[blazing aurora]

Just sold my 60he to fund the 80he, can’t wait man

[heady cape]

Last stream, we did announce that we finally will be offering spring packs soon* that you can get to change the weights of the switches.

Available options:

• L35 (20-35gf)
• L45 (already offer, 30-45gf)
• L60 (already offer, 40-60gf)
• L70 (50-70gf)
• L80 (60-80gf)
• L100 (80-100gf, the big boy)

*soon in wooting time

[fast moth]

Could we pick the L45 switches preinstalled if we wanted to?

[sinful gorge]

I don’t think so. From their video it’ll either the V1 L60s or the V2s. You can always choose V1 L45s and install them yourself.

[trim yarrow]

the peolple who buy it in the pre order

is going to have something?

[glacial karma]

The other case that was shown, is it light grey or white?

[real jungle]

Has the 80HE RGB backlight?

Or any backlight at all?

[sinful gorge]

Yes, the perks will be revealed at the campaign, or maybe earlier.

[sinful gorge]

White.

[sinful gorge]

Per-key LEDs like all Wooting’s boards have.

[cerulean arch]

[sullen dagger]

Maybe

[barren nacelle]

i want it but throwing geon raptors onto it.

[viral skiff]

https://tenor.com/view/whet-what-ew-can-you-not-stop-gif-17941942377869719800

[sullen dagger]

I'd love to see a picture of this with all LEDs enabled. Doesn't need to be a product picture, but would be nice to see what it looks like, since I can't choose between solid and transparent atm really.

[prisma token]

Will you deliver pre-orders to Spain? I know some brands do not...

[glacial karma]

you know where one would find raptors in-stock????

[naive fog]

for the keyboard is there a rough estimate of price point, and delivery time when pre ordered

[sinful gorge]

AliExpress or some stores like KBDFans

They’d be cheaper from Ali most likely.

[sullen dagger]

Pretty sure they do

[sullen dagger]

I'd guess between 180-220$. Shipping will be q2-q3, although it seems like they are giving more exact dates till the campaign starts.

[naive fog]

AIGHT

[normal ice]

I never liked the translucent stuff.. I like Opaque Black 🙂

[sullen dagger]

I miss the speckles. It was unique and it felt like a starry sky. Reminds me of when I first met a very special person in my life lol.

But I get that not a lot of people liked it :/

[normal ice]

I appreciate you thank you!! 🙂

[cyan vessel]

is the white transparent going to be a thing still?

[trim yarrow]

which case won?

transparent?

[heady cape]

Not sure what you mean by "won"

[glacial karma]

Wanna link? every where i look they are sold out

[trim yarrow]

which case will be

[trim yarrow]

??

[hidden locust]

the stealth black and white versions iirc

[trim yarrow]

the white version will have the same price that black one

?

[sinful gorge]

I assume all ABS cases to be priced the same, with only the Zinc Alloy versions more pricey.

[sinful gorge]

If you just search “Raptor HE” on Ali you can compare the prices yourself.

[trim yarrow]

what is "zinc"?

[sinful gorge]

Zinc is a metal.

[trim yarrow]

For me they have to put the band-aid on the 80he that the 60he has

is a good idea

[thin tendon]

The 60he and 80he software will be the same, but is there any difference in functional performance?

I have 60he and I wonder if I will be spending double.

Of course, if there is a clear difference, I am willing to purchase it, but if it is not enough... 60he is enough.

I'm curious because I don't see any merit in simply arranging or adding keys to my game.

[sullen dagger]

Nope. Only difference function wise, is the true 8k polling rate. But it‘s definitely not something that is worth switching, especially when you prefer the 60% layout.

[knotty condor]

and the optional knob...

and the other mystery add-on

[sullen dagger]

Didn't even notice that was a thing

[thin tendon]

ok thx!

[tardy harbor]

I wonder how the 80HE looks with white case and white keycaps

[glacial karma]

god bless you

[sullen dagger]

nama tama! 😅

[velvet zinc]

i wish they could say what that is i can decide wether to buy it or not

[knotty condor]

well they'll tell you when you actually can buy it so

[velvet zinc]

but im already saving up money

i would prefer to see if i want it nowww

you know

[knotty condor]

just a couple weeks

I'm sure you can hold out

[sullen dagger]

Most things will already be next week as well, i'm sure

(price, etc.)

[red fox]

I wish there was an option without the RGB strip

[acoustic rock]

Price ?

[tardy harbor]

will be released later this week

[vale briar]

sound test pls

[toxic aurora]

If it had a touch sensor, it could be quite a cool alternative to a knob.

[ocean atlas]

8 days fellas

Cannot wait

[sullen dagger]

fr

(although someone still owes me money so it might take longer for me 😭)

[pseudo scaffold]

I moved to the AkkoHE for the extra keys but will be moving back to Wooting for the 80. The Akko is good but wooting is untouchable on software

[sullen dagger]

Agreed. Also 80% is exactly what I need!
Basic Key, Function Keys, Delete key, arrow keys & print screen key. Nothing more, nothing less and the 80he is the closest to that!

[pseudo scaffold]

What case are you thinking about? The zinc or happy with plastic?

[sullen dagger]

I'm stupid

uhm

happy with plastic for now

[pseudo scaffold]

Yeah. The Akko is metal and so heavy, but the plastic of the wooting 60 was very light and felt cheaper

I will decide when prices are announced

[sullen dagger]

Agreed. tbh I totally forgot about having options there, so I might actually go zinc once the prices are announced as well.

Although never had anything other than plastic yet, so not 100% sure yet

[fresh sage]

its next week 😉

[sharp phoenix]

Sander is editing the video "D

[fresh sage]

❤️

[sullen dagger]

He does a good job with it!

[pseudo scaffold]

Exciting! my daily standup can wait for this

[rain helm]

So we have untill April 15th to order the 80HE ?

from March 14th

Because I am getting my salary on the 15th xD

[sullen dagger]

For the founders campaign, yes.

[rain helm]

What is the difference between the founders to the "normal" campaign?

[sullen dagger]

Extra perks (and I think a better price, not sure tho). What it will be exactly will be revealed when sander has edited the update video ^^
Also you'll be among the first people to receive it, instead of having to wait for them to produce more and go in-stock.

[rain helm]

Thanks for sharing friend !

[pseudo scaffold]

I missed the start of the stream. Did anyone grab the pricing for them?

[sullen dagger]

Someone in chat said plastic is 200 and zinc will be 300, couldn't check myself yet tho

[pseudo scaffold]

Appreciate it. Thank you!

[sullen dagger]

I'll be getting the plastic then 😅

[sinful gorge]

ABS $200/€220
Zinc $300/€330

[sullen dagger]

yep

I thought they mentioned it was cheaper to produce than the 60he, but because of the cool stuff in it it will be around the same price range. Guess it's a bit more pricier 😅

Will still get it tho!

[light quiver]

Founders campaign's shipment is faster than normal shipment?

[sullen dagger]

Since it's a pre-order you'll be among the first to receive it, yeah

[hidden locust]

which box is that, the travel case?

ahh so u can put ur name on the travel case, i thought its on the keyboard case xD

on the sale box?

dayum, gotta save the boxes then xD

[tardy harbor]

maybe they‘re doing like idk 200 people can buy the „your name on the box“ edition yk?

[light quiver]

I want to know 'mode' keys on 80HE. that changes keyboard profile?

[heady cape]

Yes

You can remap any key in Wootility to Mode, Cycle, or D1, A1, A2, A3 to switch between profiles

Mode in particular switches between D1 and your last used Analog profile (A1-3)

And if you don't want this, then you can remap the key to something else

[light quiver]

Ok, thanks! I love wooting from korea. Have a nice day!

[hidden locust]

so where can i find the name thing about the founders campaign, i tried looking for the 60he founders one to have an idea but couldnt find it

[stoic sand]

Hello, just to confirm this will be worldwide?

[sullen dagger]

Yes

[stoic sand]

Thanks!

[trim yarrow]

How many switches will there be?

i mean the pearks

[cyan vessel]

90

[sturdy tangle]

Preordering 80he, I have absolutely no idea what switches to get, which one of their options is the most popular?

I played on Cherry MX blue for like 4 years when I was a kid, switched to Cherry MX red for maybe another 4 years, the past 6 months I use a steelseries apex pro set to 0.2mm trigger and 0.2mm release for valorant. I probably get used to red mechanical more, but I don't think I hate the blue or brown switches, and I don't hate or love the magnetic switch on apex pro. so I really don't have a preference/don't know which wooting switch I would prefer.

[sinful gorge]

The Steelseries Apex Pro uses Omni-Point switches, also named KS-20 switches. The current Lekker switches come from the same mold, they’re identical twins with a different color hair. The KS-20T/Jade switches offer a clackier, noisier sound. The KS-20U switches are similar to the KS-20 switches in sound but feel smoother and have tighter tolerances because of their dual-rail design. The Raptor HE switches’ sound and feel are very similar to the KS-20 switches but they can be used to stem swap. That’s using the KS-20’s stem in the Raptor HE’s housing which drastically reduces the stem wobble but also has to get worn in as they’re a bit too tight.

[pseudo scaffold]

I take it you don’t get the travel case on the assembled ANS case? It’s the only one that doesn’t list it

[sullen dagger]

Seems like it :/

[sinful gorge]

Only with the Zinc Alloy and Module versions.

[ocean atlas]

Campaign starts today fellas

[sullen dagger]

6 minutes!!!

(sadly didn't get my paycheck yet :c)

[echo gazelle]

Let’s goooooooooo

[pseudo scaffold]

Holy shit, the prices keep changing 😂

[ocean atlas]

Just purchased

[zenith jasper]

Me too

Purchased

[foggy belfry]

are the gateron jades 80g to bottom out?

[sullen dagger]

With the module, is just the zinc alloy having a travel case? Because on the website it doesn't say that...

[warm garnet]

Thanks wooting

💪

[pseudo scaffold]

Does this mean I need the zinc?

[sullen dagger]

Seems like it for the travel case on the configurator, but not on the main page :/

[red fox]

Gateron Magnetic Jades are an option? That is great

[red fox]

I am also curious about this

[sturdy tangle]

what is the hidden feature? still "tba" in the announcement channel

[sullen dagger]

Rapid Lock or however they named it

[pseudo scaffold]

Is frost just translucent on the plastic case or is it white?

[rapid merlin]

I heard from someone that the zinc 80he comes with a travel case, is this true? If not I’ll need to see about adding onto my order

[sonic marlin]

Got the white zinc one

How does one now add that order to their account?

[sullen dagger]

It does

[sullen dagger]

Translucent

[rain helm]

Getting it right now also ! 🙂

[sonic marlin]

Yesssss

Can't wait to install the L45s too

[steel blade]

Im about to order, im in greece will i pay customs or is it shipped from the eu?

[trim yarrow]

The module comes with everything except the keycaps and switches, right?

[latent rock]

no case too

[trim yarrow]

but it still has everything for noise reduction etc.

[latent rock]

That I'm not sure, try asking on #💬│general or the #🌟│wooting80he

[sullen dagger]

It should, yeah

[fresh sage]

did prices change

[sullen dagger]

Don't think they did.

[fresh sage]

the cart page says £286

the checkout page says £230

lmfao

[sullen dagger]

shipping costs perhaps?

[fresh sage]

how does shipping remove £60

[sullen dagger]

it could, not sure.

[sullen dagger]

Oh I think they reduced it for pounds in order to minimize the shipping costs, since they are quite large for uk afaik. Don't mark my words though, not a wooting employee.

[pseudo scaffold]

If you seelct module and under case options select the 'i' it shows this, which looks like any module gets the travel case, which is what was originally mentioned

[fast moth]

Is it worth getting the zinc case?

[pseudo scaffold]

If you like it heavier and want to hit someone with it, then it's a good option, probably sounds a little better

[fast moth]

Should

[pseudo scaffold]

I'll use mine for travelling between home and the office, so I'm going Ghost plastic

[pastel aurora]

is the retail and campaign prices gonna differ?

[sinful gorge]

I don’t think so.

Just that you’ll get a free switch pack if you order during the campaign.

[pastel aurora]

and is the 8k polling rate gonna be exclusive to 80he only?

[sullen dagger]

Yes

[red fox]

Most useless feature

[sturdy tangle]

nobody cares about the 8khz, you buy wooting for tac fps and you want 300+fps, so it will only be used at 1khz anyways

[ocean atlas]

sheesh

[pseudo scaffold]

Hi guys, can we just start shipping now? We can’t wait. Yours sincerely, Everyone

[sturdy tangle]

Yeah man, just ship them now, why wait til august 🤡

BTW the pre order reached 4.3mil euro in like 5 days

[latent rock]

yeah, too many ppl want 77.5% keyboard

[velvet zinc]

I’m in copious amounts of suffering due to having to wait 4 months

oh my god.

I might have to move

this is catastrophic

[heady cape]

Don't worry, you'll be asked to confirm your address before they are sent out

so if your address changes between now and when they are ready, you can change your address then.

We know things can quickly change in a few months

[velvet zinc]

can I kiss you

who said that?

not me that’s for sure
