DK Creamery’s Red Velvet are silent tactiles to make you melt. These silent tactiles feature intricate TPE silencers within the stem rails to minimize noise during each keystroke allowing you to enjoy your delicious switches without bothering those around you! They feature minimal pre-travel and a well-rounded short tactile bump to provide a gentle and satisfying tactility. The switches also boast the classic combination of polycarbonate top housings, nylon bottom housing, and POM stems to further elevate the typing experience! – dangkeebs. | Gazzew U4Tx Tactile Switches are a thocky version of Gazzew's U4T (U4 standing for "euphoria") switches featuring their signature "D" sound profile. U4Tx feature a mechanism dampening the upstroke and giving a satisfying thock on downstroke which makes them a perfect choice for those looking for a mostly silent switch that still gives a clear feedback – OZO. The all-new Gazzew U4Tx is here! The updated construction of these tactile switches provide a more pronounced bump upon downstroke and a smooth, silent upstroke thanks to the pads on the stem. Virtually wobble-free, the dust-proof stems are using a box design now. A clear top housing for RGB lighting and a new proprietary plastic for its bottom housing completes the look to match your chase for the ultimate thocky experience! – Pantheonkeys. |
