@NachoMuncher-g4g Жыл бұрын
one thing to mention is, that when you replace the analog sticks with Hall effect ones, you will have a small under-or overshoot, meaning if you pull the stick 100% in one direction it could show about 90% in game or 110%if you overshoot, meaning if you want to move your character with Hall effect, he could either go already at maximum speed when you didn't wanted him to or go slower than you wanted.

@@TheGamer2Know Thanks, I just bought 10 of these since I've been replacing potentiometers like a mad man these last few days. The reason I ask is because I'm primarily fixing Xbox Elite Series 2 controllers, and those have a threaded/magnetic joystick stem so these Hall Effect ones will not work with the Xbox Elite accessories. If I can get away with only swapping the potentiometers to these Hall Effect ones and keep the joystick housing itself original, then it's the best of both worlds. That's assuming the magnetized joysticks on the Elite do not interfere with the Hall Effect sensors.
@TheGamer2Know Жыл бұрын
@spartanvi They will definitely interfere. As in my video towards the end when I took the magnet and brough it close up to the hall effect joystick, you could tell from the gamepad tester the stick was moving in response to the magnet.

I purchased 2 more... replaced the left stick AGAIN and now it works fine but day after that the right stick had the exact same issue... so I replaced that with the new one and now it has the same damn thing... I cant press L3 to lock on, every time I move the stick I hear crunching in there (yes it is clean inside) so it feels like its either not lubed up, too much lube so its sticky inside or I dunno... but I dont want to spend another like 15 bucks on sticks to try more and more and more until I finally find all 4 good ones to fix both of my gamepads...

Sadly Hall effect sensors do not solve stick drift it solves potentiometer wear, still a good thing just doesn't solve drift for liner curve players. Stick drift is mainly from a stick centring issue as sticks are centred by a spring pushing two plastic parts together and coil spring love to loose their spring tension over time... Don't believe me buy a hall effect controller go into the software and remove the DAEDZONE in the software. Gamersir Nexus for the G7 controller for example even has this as a warning in their software stating Lowering "initial value under 10% will make the stick very sensitive, which is prone to drifting, please use caution". I own 6 controllers 4 with hall effect sensors and they all have drift out of the box after removing the deadzone also they seem to perform poorly in circularity test unless you have software to help fill in the gaps. Sadly social media has hyped them up and put down potentiometer being the main issue defiantly can be if they are worn however you would see voltage drops where it makes less contact resulting in loss of movement like my old Xbox controller. Saying that I really like the Gamesir G7 light weight, 1000hz, rear buttons and it has drift like every other controller.

The issue isn't that potentiometers are trash and hall effect are all great and last forever. This is a myth and simply isn't the full truth to the matter! There are of course good and crappy hall effect modules, just like there are crappy potentiometers and good potentiometers as well! The analog sticks on my 8 year old Ps4 controller still work great. (The old battery inside not so much.) The sticks on my brand new Dualsense PS5 controller though are already creating massive stick drift after just 35 days! They both share the exact same technology, even made by the same manufacturer as the old PS4 controller, supposedly even upgraded to the V2 on the new Dualsense controller. Still one of the two is absolutely great, the other one is complete and utter crap! The detailed technical reviews and thorough tests I have seen on Hall effect modules replacing potentiometers so far were all not exactly very promising at all! There were issues with jitter with unacceptable and uneven dead zones. Yes, the hall Effect modules usually do work, but they very often seem to perform rather crappy whenever compared to good quality potentiometer versions! When using Hall effect sensors for example, you will normally want them to be accompanied with suitable electronics filtering and averaging the signals to eliminate jitter. The claim that the Playstation or the PC itself will filter the jitter out is generally NOT true and the test used in the video shows you otherwise! It absolutely will affect some games more than others so it may not necessarily be a big issue for certain games, but the jittery input displayed in the text will be jittery input to the game and will NOT be filtered by the playstation! This jitter does typically NOT happen on potentiometers (unless they bare faulty) and that is exactly why the Playstation (and Windows) do NOT filter or compensate the input values to eliminate this type of jitter. This would need to be done INTERNALLY/ INSIDE the controller with suitable electronics which are obviously NOT part of the Hall effect module that was used here in this video! What the test in the video does show you instead, is simply that the installed Hall effect sensor is absolutely NOT performing nearly as good as a original potentiometer one did when it was in good working order! So if you need to replace a faulty potentiometer, then you may instead want to replace it with a GOOD high quality potentiometer, much rather than replacing it with the comparably poorly performing Hall effect sensor shown and installed here in this video! - Or wait/ look for a hall effect module to be sold on the market that performs considerably better than the poorly performing ones used here in this video!
