The short version
The 60HE v2 is Wooting's current 60% gaming keyboard, succeeding the 60HE+ with true 8 kHz polling, Rapid Trigger, per-key actuation from 0.1 to 4.0 mm and Lekker Tikken switches on an FR4 plate. It comes in ABS or aluminium cases with an optional split spacebar. PC Gamer rated it the strongest Wooting yet but noted faint ping on some keys and a price above the older 60HE+. Its compact layout favors competitive players who want mouse room over office convenience.

Common questions
What changed from the 60HE+ to the 60HE v2?
Wooting says the v2 adds true 8 kHz polling, Lekker Tikken switches, an FR4 plate, an aluminium case option and a split-spacebar option, while the 60HE+ stays at 1 kHz polling.
Can I use other magnetic switches?
The sensors only detect switches with a magnet, so mechanical switches will not work. Wooting recommends its own Lekker switches and points buyers to a community database for alternatives.
