The Sunset Tactile Choc Switches are being dubbed as "the first truly new Choc switch in years". The switch was born from a design by LowproKB - a company that specializes in anything and everything low profile and Choc - and manufactured by Kailh, the leading company in Choc switches. Using a newly designed tactile stem and a 40g spring, the Sunset switch is able to produce a nice tactile bump, and as it comes factory lubricated, is also exceptionally smooth. | No comments on Wuque Studio WS Light Tactile switches. |
