Comments on Yushakobo Fairy switches
This is a customized Kailh Midnight Silent V2 switch with a spring custom made by Yusha Kobo. While inheriting the characteristics of the Kailh Midnight Silent V2, we changed to a 35g spring, favorite of many users, and adopted a blue housing, which is the image color of the Yusha Studio – Yusha Kobo.
