Comments on Keygeek Mirror Lake V2 switches | Comments on Unikeys x BSUN Udon switches |
Do they remind you of a peaceful ice lake? The Keygeek Mirror Lake V2 switch is a full upgrade from the V1. The major improvement is that they are now manufactured using Keygeek's newest mold set, which fixes some of the issues that existed on the V1, such as stem wobble, loud but noisy bottom-out sound, etc. The UPE stem plus PBT+%30 FG bottom housing creates a loud, clacky, and clean sound profile. The UPE stem also buffers the bottom-out feel to make it more comfortable to type with. Just as we always say, don't expect Keygeek's flat tip UPE stems to sound deep or thocky. They are more like Keygeek's LY blend for clacky switches – Unikeys. | The Unikeys Udon linear switch is our attempt at trying to create a clacky BSUN switch that is not thin-sounding. The stem material, Y3X, is the same as the Jade Rosales switches; It can be considered an improved LY or Y3 material, and Y3X is slightly softer than LY but much smoother than both LY and Y3. We chose to pair it with a modified PA66 bottom housing to create a full but clacky-sounding bottom out. The PC top housing gives them a clean and sharp top-out sound. Overall, these will be one of the more clacky new BSUN switches in our collection. In order to prevent the lube pooling issues, we chose to only lube the stem sliders and legs with a very thin coat of 205g0. Springs are lubed with dry film – Unikeys. |
