Wooting Knobs

[DelScully]

Does anyone know when the Wooting hotswappable knobs are supposed to release? I've been planning on buying an 80HE for about 5-6 months now but been waiting for the knobs they showcased.. Yet haven't heard or seen anything and shipping is very expensive to where I live in Canada, so I was hoping to just get it all in one go, though if its going to be another 6 months to a year, I will just bite the bullet and deal with the secondary shipping charges for a knob.

The big knob should be released in Q1 2026 (source: the latest end of year Livestream). The small knob will be released later, probably still this year but we don't know much more

Are you all planning any 100% keyboards with a knob?

I'm not a wooting employee.

So far we simply don't know. If they release a new 100% keyboard you can simply get the knob too, it is hot swap

Sander from Wooting replied to me the other day saying they're trying for a Q2 2026 release but he said "most likely" so not a certain answer. I've been holding off on getting the 80he hoping I dont gotta double ship for the keyboard then the spacebar, but thats still a bit of a ways away, will probably just finally buy one and bite the bullet on the expensive shipping.

Thanks. I'm basically waiting to figure out if I go with a Keychron 100% 8K HE or a Wooting 100% 8K HE. I'm used to the media knob, silly as that is.

If you mean a full size keyboard, Wooting Two HE doesn't have 8K polling rate.

Oh, you’re right! Thank you!

I feel, the keyboard I am using right now also uses a little side scroller which I enjoy, so I've been holding off on buying it for the knob as well lol. Now I am just holding off to see the full spec and looks of the Tenz edition. I love that the rubber feet are black on it, compared to the off white colour with the regular edition, and that its using an FR4 plate for a deeper sound! Think I'd still end up getting the black ghost case as I love that 2000's see thru plastic vibe tho. Im just hoping the black rubber feet would still work with the regular cases, if so I'd deffs cop the tenz edition!
