Wooting 60HE - How to Swap your Keyboard Case

you have a rooting six heat and you wanna use a different case well that's possible the six he has a module design which you can install on any universal sixty percent case there's a lot of third party cases out there i have one here that's made of aluminum and i'm going to install my 6ht module into this case so how do we do that and what is the best way to do it without breaking anything let's take a look so i have here the aluminum case i have my whitney six stage here and this is the module that's inside here that we're going to take out without keycaps and this is what it looks like so let's take that module out first we're going to start off with removing the keycaps that are covering the screw holes so we can screw out the module you don't need to remove all the keycaps you just need to remove the keycaps that are covering the screw holes unless you have your own keycap set and want to do a full replacement now that i've removed the keycaps you can see that there are five screw positions here here here here and there now there is an additional screw position right in the center but we don't use that one some cases might others won't you don't need to install it so let's remove the screws here quick tip when you remove the screws you can use a keycap as a screw holder so put the screws in there so you won't lose it if you lose one there's always two extras in the box now that if you've removed all the screws you can take out the module but you have to be careful because the usb port is still inside the case now you don't want to force the module in any way that can damage the usb port so there's two good ways of taking it out the best way is to just grab the module here and tilt it from the bottom forward and it will slide out easily another way which is possible is by grabbing the keyboard with two hands flipping it around and the modulus will just drop in your hand there should be no force required and should just easily drop out without any kind of tension so now we have our module let's install it into the new case and put this one away as you can see from the case there are six screwing points we have two here two on the other side and two in the center we usually don't use the center one but if you really want to you could use it there is a connection point for it but i'm not going to use it in this case so pay attention to that to properly install the module you need to take careful look at the usb port again and make sure you connect that one first before you drop the whole thing into the case a simple way is by tilting it this way sliding it in and dropping the front you can double check if the usb port is aligning with the hole make sure to hold the module it's still loose it's not screwed if that's no problem and it's there then you can double check if the screw holes are aligning with the openings and that's all okay you can start screwing in the module now i personally recommend to start with the screw closest to the usb port because then you can align the usb port and make sure that one is in the correct position so that will be here on the left top now you can see that the whole opening is not aligned with the screw position so i'm aligning it right now screw goes in and don't tighten it all the way don't put too much pressure on it just tighten it slightly now you can double check if the port is still connected there and is in the opening it's okay so now we can screw in the rest now that all the screws are installed we can put back the keycaps and we're done [Music] all right so now you know how to safely exchange the 68 for a different case be sure to share your creation on discord or on twitter we'd love to see it that's it bye
