The Gateron Summertime V2 Switches feature a full polished rail POM top housing, and Milky bottom housing, with molds being custom polished just for this project. The switch also brings the Ink material in the form of a lightly lubricated and polished 3.8mm travel linear stem paired with a dual stage 63g long spring. The goal is to provide a nostalgic feeling and sounding quality linear with a bright sound profile akin to BCP's (black cherry pies) and a crisp bottom out at a mid-tier price point – Serpentkeys. | No comments on Invokeys Matcha Latte V2 switches. |
