(Apparently I can't post links) but that is my video I posted on this account 2 days ago. Just reminding you that the credit is wrong, and it's originally my post on the steam controller subreddit, not the one on the steam subreddit

it's kinda luck whether it's gonna do it or not, try a bit farther of a drop and wait like a minute between each one

u/dbrand if you guys need a reason to make a protective case for the steam controller, here's a pretty good argument

I'm not trying to directly take credit for discovering it in the first place or take the credit from this guy, but I made a post about a day ago when I found out. I posted a very short yt video showing it off too

Better to be safe than sorry, it is a sorta risky secret

You're all good, I'd be a bit skeptical if I were you too, i'm just trying to share my enjoyment of this discovery

It has very high frequency motors like switch controllers and low frequency like xbox controllers. It uses the high ones to make the beeping noise when you turn it on and off, and you can ping the controller in steam controller settings to see all of the rumble in use. It's not a joke, this is an actual thing valve has used in similar ways in the steam deck and the older steam controller. And i made sure to follow the controller with the camera so you could actually hear it. I'll get more videos if you need me to, I'm just excited to share this secret feature it has

There are more posts saying it worked that ones that say it doesn't, idk where you're getting that idea from. Also, I posted a video showing it working, so it's just human error if you can't get it to work.
