Comments on Huano Caramel Latte V2 switches | Comments on HMX Lunar Stone switches |
The new Huano Caramel Latte switches have been manufactured with the latest molds to improve tolerances and precision, V2 also comes with an LED diffuser. The special spherical pole of the stem provides the characteristics of a long pole switch but with a slightly smoother bottom-out – MonacoKeys. | The HMX Lunar Stone linear switches are manufactured using HMX's brand-new full POM housing mold. It is the first full POM HMX switch. As the first full POM HMX switch, we expected it to sound and feel a bit different from other HMX switches in the market. They have proven to be quite unique; They sound fuller and thockier than most HMX switches yet still come with the bassy bottom-out sound. The travel feels very smooth yet there is audible scratch since that's what most people love about full POM switches – Unikeys. |
