Great value, big smooth

I am a big boy and I like heavy switches. As a linear gang member they are perfect, smooth pretty and for now reliable. The lube is okay. I recommend putting them into a keyboard (if it is hotswap) and then just applying more lube if certain switches need it.

Would recommend to a friend.

Hoooooooooly cow these are smooth. Like smoother than smooth. You think Durock linears are smooth? You ain't felt smooth. Slap some of these bad boys into your board and prepare for a linear experience unlike anything else. Mine were even perfectly factory lubed and the housing tolerances were perfect, meaning you don't have to do any extra work to them. They're totally stock, and they're totally sick.

Would recommend to a friend.

Zealpc Tealio V2 or these Everglide Aqua King switches? Which one do you guys recommend more?

Rayan

Aqua Kings. Zealpc is overpriced and there are better options now that the industry has caught up.

Do these come dry or prelubed?

someone in the comments here says many of the switches they bought stopped rebounding properly. I'm still wondering where to get a comparison of 5pin switches. something heavier duty. The 67gram pack is out of stock and I might need more than 35 switches for a keychron q3 pro. not sure if I should get linear with heavier force or what else would

So the "Initial Force" listed in the table (38g/45g/55g) should be the actuation force and the "Actuation Force" listed (55g/62g/67g) is the bottom out force, correct? The table doesn't match the force curve diagrams.

Is there a plan to make silent version of there?

I've been using these for about 3 months now. Many of the switches have stopped rebounding properly, getting stuck in the down position. I wouldn't buy these on account of the "good" factory lubing. In my experience they're inconsistent out of the box and then deteriorate with age.

what supplies would you need to clip a 5 pin switch?

bensoodersNot sure, since I've never done it. There aren't a lot of boards anymore that will only work with 3-pin switches, and the Drop ones are the only ones I know of. My guess would be flush cutters, since anything else would likely leave a bit left that would scratch or poke the PCB.
