Bought the GuliKit Hall effect sensors sticks as soon as they released. Loved the (almost) zero dead zone and their drift resistance.
But I quickly realized, that the GuliKit sticks have a square ouput zone, which makes them borderline unusable in first person games, as they reach their max output way before they reach their physical movement limits. That makes aiming horrible.

Yesterday I found out that a new player has entered the Hall effect stick game, Elecgear. I ordered them and put them into my Steam Deck, as they have a circle zone, the same as the original OEM sticks do. They feel SO much better because of that.

So If you want to change your sticks, I highly recommend the Elecgear ones over thei GuliKit counterpart.

    I don’t even own a soldering kit, and don’t trust myself enough with it (yet). Not everyone can do everything.

      I hear you. But, the specific soldering task for this is really simple. You could watch a YouTube video and have this specific task done really fast.

        I used to think this until I helped out on a robotics site. Some people are absolutely hopeless at soldering even after tons of practice. It is what it is.
