Comments on Gateron EF EverFree Curry switches
Gateron sub-brand EverFree switch is a new mold and design, different from the main GATERON brand. But it also has high value and quality. The EF Curry switch top housing is PC and bottom housing is Nylon, and the stem is POM. Which brings a different satisfying typing feel. Also EF switch has an original Gold Alloy contact point with better antioxidant quality, more reliable conductivity, and a longer lifetime. With a dual-layered pin, it is more strong when put on the PCB board. This GATERON EF curry switch item is 5-pin and compatible with a standard 5-pin MX mechanical keyboard with SMD-LED light – CandyKeys.
