Hi all, happy to show my Wooting 80he with the raw case. I put the new (boxed) Jade Gaming switches in that came out around september. I lubed all of them and they feel A M A Z I N G (and sound so too). I also put in stems that are made for shorter travel switches just to make sure e.g. the spacebar wouldn’t pop out. This wasn’t needed when i tried the stock ones but its still nice to have. Only thing missing is the arrowkeys, F-row keycaps, backspace, shift(s), capslock and tab. I cheaped out on this since it would have been €100 more and i wanted to see first if i liked this set before spending about €300 on keycaps lol. I will list everything i did in terms of modding / components, if someone has questions about anything hit me up (:
Case: Wooting 80he Zinc Raw
Keycaps:
- GMK Panda Spacebar set
- GMK Panda Alpha kit (Cangjie)
- GMK Panda Novelty kit
Switches: Gateron Jade Gaming Switch Set
Lube: Krytox 205G0 + Molykote EM-50L (from Wooting)
Stabilizers + stems: Gateron Screw In Stabilizer Set (Silver)
Mods:
- Tapemod (2 layers on top of the PET film, made it sound even better)
- Lubed all switches (housing + spring) don’t overlube the spring tho! Happened on one and it was terrible so make sure to be gentle there
- Replaced stems for the Gateron Silver stems since the jade gaming switches bottom out at abt .35 instead of .4)
- Replaced the spacebar stabilizer with the stabilizer that came with the set for the stems, i think its actually the same one as stock but i just wanted to re-lube that one)
I think that’s it (: might upload a soundtest in the future but now im heading to sleep.
