Comments on Loobed Oak switches | Comments on Keebz N Cables Ice Kachang V2 switches |
We are proud to announce our newest switch in collaboration with Dotnick. Dotnick is responsible for many beautiful keycap sets such as GMK Lavender, GMK Fright Club, and many more. Oak Switches are the second in the lineup of our new series of switches t | The Ice Kachang is the first switch in our Shaved Ice series and inspired by a childhood favourite dessert thanks to all the Malaysians and Singaporeans in Perth. For those who are familiar with the ice kachang/ais kacang, we hope the colourway is remiscent of some of the many elements you'd find in this amazing dessert. Now about the switch… it's a long pole medium tactile with a rounded bump with minimal pre-travel. It comes with two options, hand lubed from factory for the cbf crowd like myself and unlubed for enthusiasts with trust issues – KeebzNCables. |
