Comments on Sarokeys x Geon Strawberry Wine V2 switches | Comments on Keygeek x Moyu Athena (40g) switches |
The Sarokeys x Geon Strawberry Wine V2 Switches are a complete revamp of the V1 switches. With different materials from the Y3 stem for better sound and bottom-out feel to the PA12 bottom housing which is the same as the Sarokeys BCP switches. A light diffuser is now included as well as an upgraded nickel contact leaf – SerpentKeys. | Following the runaway success of the HMX Hades V2 – where depth (in both sound and visual aesthetic) met darkness—Athena rises as its radiant counterpart. Forged from the same mythic lineage, this is the next chapter in a switch series inspired by the gods themselves – Thocc Exchange. |
