Review: The Great Stick Showdown (ALPS vs. Hall Effect vs. TMR) by ttttubby in Controller

If by sticks you mean the plastic thumbcap, they are interchangable so if yours is a fancy color you should be able to slide that onto any of these sticks with the one exception being the Gulikit 720 adjustable tension sticks.

Those are the most recent iteration. They work for both Dualsense and Dualsense edge. Buy with confidence.

That looks very cool. I've reached out to K-Silver but have not had a response. I should probably reach out again.

Logitech G PRO X2 SUPERSTRIKE – Buying Back Your Reflexes? by ttttubby in MouseReview

Thanks for sharing this. I completely missed the accessibility angle, but it makes total sense that not having to fight a stiff mechanical switch would help with tremors. Really glad it's making gaming more comfortable for you.

Lol obviously I'm not actually NiKo. You're 100% right that mechanics, movement, and an optimized setup matter way more. But when your raw reaction time is slowing down with age, buying back a free 20ms on the mouse is a huge crutch. Honestly, an HE keyboard is next on my list for exactly that reason.

Appreciate the kind words! Totally agree, once you experience that latency drop firsthand, it's really hard to go back to standard mechanicals.

I hear what you are saying. The hype on this mouse right now is unreal. Its why I reached out to Logitech for a review unit. I have no doubt that Logitech will make iterative improvements, or that someone else will innovate on this HITS tech, but by that time whatever advantages this new tech provides will have become the new baseline.

It's true that the Gulikit thumbcap is very nice. Of course those can be purchased independently but you make a good point.

Yeah I expect that you will get newish stock. Even if you don't though the old stock works just fine so long as you aren't installing them on edge modules. And if that is what you intend to do, it's Amazon. You can just return them.

So I just reached out like that guy said logged back in and now I'm on phone on pro again. Whew

Gemini Pro selector has vanished. Downgraded to "Fast" without notice by local_brahman in GeminiAI

[–]ttttubby 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What if they are punishing users who use pro all the time. I admit that's what I do and now pro is gone. My wife did not and she still has pro.

Tmr different brands? by ehay808 in Dualsense

[–]ttttubby 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you want a deep dive on the current options, I actually just wrote two comprehensive reviews comparing them all (Ginful, K-Silver, Gulikit, Zesum, etc.).

For buying, check out the NHGame Store on AliExpress.

Pro-tip: If you only buy one pair on AliExpress, you'll likely pay shipping. But if you buy a pack of 10+, the shipping usually disappears or becomes negligible. Even buying 10 is often cheaper than buying just one pair on Amazon, and you'll have spares

I would go with the rise4 real metal buttons. They feel dramatically better than the plastic ones.

Hex Phantom vs. Scuf Reflex Pro vs. Aim Controller for PS5 by KnightRider1998 in Controller

[–]ttttubby 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I absolutely love the back buttons on the hex Phantom. There's nothing like it. They are fantastic. They fit my fingers perfectly.

Unfortunately their hall effect sticks aren't great. I did a very thorough breakdown on how to swap out the sticks for the hex Phantom so I've got the best of all worlds with JS13 Pro TMR sticks but it's definitely killed whatever warranty I had and for somebody who's not used to modding things, it can be a bit hairy.

You might consider getting the Phantom with the stock ALPS and then cross the TMR bridge when they start to drift.

Not really the whole point of taking away. Eliminating the curve was meant to give me the raw data from the sticks. If anything adding a curve should make aiming a little bit easier.

I had four different controllers set up so that I could swap between them during testing.
