Comments on Keygeek Guns N Roses switches | Comments on Keylist Kitty switches |
Guns N Roses is the first non-cheese themed switch by Keys in Cheese studio. The name and colourway is a tribute to one of her favourite rock bands from the 80s. This switch has a kinda deep/thocky and kinda clacky sound profile unlike Blue Cheese V2 which is the current thock king. They've achieved this by using the same materials as Blue Cheese V2, except adding metal powder into the L4 stem blend to make it clack a little – Keebzandcables. | The Kitty linear switch designed by Keylist Studio features a cute kittycat paw light diffuser on the top housing. With transparent keycaps on and RGB underglow, the kittypaws light up and look very adorable. Material-wise, Kitty switches come with an HPE stem and PA66 bottom housing for a thocky and relatively deep sound profile. The HPE stem also ensures each keystroke is smooth and clean – Unikeys. |
