Comments on Loobed Oak switches | Comments on Keebz N Cables Mountain King 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 | Introducing the KeebzNCables x clickpig Mountain King, the first switch in our KeebzNCables community collaboration series! Based off Australia's own tactile gold clickpig's notorious BBT frankenswitch, the Mountain King is a long pole tactile sporting a sharp medium/heavy strength bump, encased in a JWICK nylon T1 housing. This particular combo results in a lively sounding switch with a punchy tactile bump and a satisfyingly crisp bottom out. The Mountain Kings are a great addition for those who enjoy experimenting and tinkering with their switches, as even minor changes will result in a noticeably different experience. Spring swapping to 62g two-stage spring will result in a snappy tactile with an almost feather-light linear section post bump. Alternatively, drop in a 65g long spring for a tactile bump that bumps back. Mountain Kings come with a small amount of factory oil to increase stock performance, however do not come pre-greased, so they're ready to lube without needing to scrape out any factory lube first. |
