Comes with factory pre-lubed, it is designed with eye catching color to perform a new level of smoothness in each keystroke and significantly wobble less than a regular mechanical switch. With a tactile design, carefully selected components, and a light-to-moderate 50 grams of required force, these little typing cubes make each actuation melt right into the keyboard – Gateron. | In celebration of our 3rd anniversary, we’d like to present DK Creamery – Birthday Cake! These striking light tactiles feature creamy white housings and 5 vibrant sprinkle-colored stems. Inside we’ve paired a well-rounded short tactile bump with minimal pre-travel to provide a gentle and satisfying tactility. The switches also boast the classic combination of polycarbonate top housings, nylon bottom housings, and POM stems to further elevate the typing experience! – Dangkeebs. |
