Frequently Asked Questions
Are these switches loud? Will they disturb others?▼
Yes, they are clicky switches with a satisfying, refined click. However, the sound is more musical and less harsh than traditional blues. Many users find them acceptable in open offices or dorms, especially compared to cheap clicky switches. The BOX structure also dampens some high‑frequency harshness.
Do I need to lube these switches?▼
No. They come factory‑lubed on key friction points. The POM stem and PC housing provide smooth operation out of the box. Lubing clicky switches is not recommended as it may reduce the click sound.
Will the translucent housing show fingerprints or smudges?▼
The PC material is resistant to visible smudges, and the gradient finish helps mask minor fingerprints. They maintain their candy‑like appearance even after extensive use.
Can I use these on a 3‑pin hot‑swap board?▼
Yes. The switches are 5‑pin design. You can clip off the two plastic positioning pins with flush cutters to convert them to 3‑pin compatibility. The metal pins remain intact.
How does the 21mm spring affect typing experience?▼
The longer spring provides a more consistent force curve and a snappier return. This reduces fatigue during long typing sessions and makes rapid key presses feel more responsive.
Are these switches good for gaming?▼
Absolutely. The 1.8mm pre‑travel allows for rapid actuation, while the crisp tactile feedback ensures you know exactly when the key is registered. Many esports players prefer clicky switches for this reason.
