Kailh CP Switch PRO (Butterfly Love) - Product Details
Top-Tier Ultra-Light HIFI Linear

Kailh CP PRO (Butterfly Love)

Tired of heavy, fatigue-inducing linears or scratchy, hollow "light" switches that sound like cheap plastic? Ready for the ultimate sensory typing experience?

Peripherals titan Kailh drops the absolute custom endgame, fusing romantic aesthetics with hardcore esports performance—the Kailh CP Switch PRO Butterfly Love.

Engineered as the ultra-lightweight variant in the CP PRO series, it features an insanely gentle 35gf operating force. But don't mistake light for sluggish—paired with a light-speed 1.2mm actuation and a ferocious 20mm extended spring, it delivers a wildly snappy, energetic rebound. Innovatively utilizing a Conical Long Pole POM stem wrapped in a POK top housing, it eliminates all mushiness, rewarding every keystroke with a pure, concentrated HIFI "Creamy Thock." Lubed to absolute perfection straight from the factory, this is the final stop for heavy typists and micro-adjustment gamers seeking RSI relief and acoustic bliss.

Core Advantages: The Ultimate Tool for RSI Relief & HIFI Sound

We know you don't just need a fast switch—you need a reliable partner that lets your fingers completely relax while delivering therapeutic ASMR feedback. The Butterfly Love was engineered to obliterate finger fatigue, mushy bottom-outs, and scratchy travel.

The Problem: Finger Fatigue & Sluggish Reset

Standard linears (45-50gf) require too much effort, causing joint pain (RSI) during long typing sessions. Conversely, cheap "light" switches use weak springs that result in a sluggish, sticky rebound that ruins your rhythm.

The Problem: Mushy, Hollow Bottom-Outs

Traditional switch stems are flat at the bottom. When they hit the housing, the large contact area creates a hollow, scattered plastic sound and a mushy "stepping in mud" feeling.

The Problem: Scratchiness & Dim Hotspots

Many switches skip proper factory lubing, leaving you with a gritty, scratchy travel and spring ping. Furthermore, opaque housings block RGB, creating ugly hotspots that ruin your desk aesthetic.

Kailh CP PRO (Butterfly Love): 35gf Snappy Spring, Conical Long Pole HIFI Stem, and Comprehensive Factory Lube. Type effortlessly for 10 hours straight.
35gf Force & 20mm Extended Spring

End Finger Fatigue & RSI
35gf Cloud Press & 20mm Snappy Spring

Ergonomic Breakthrough

Precision-locked at a feather-light 35±5gf operating force. Mated to an incredibly resilient 20mm extended stainless steel spring and a lightning-fast 1.2mm actuation point.

Absolute Advantage

Completely liberates your fingertips. The 35g weight requires zero effort to press, while the 20mm spring guarantees a ferocious, snappy rebound (Snappy Return) the millisecond you release.

Typing Benefit

Experience the magical "light press, fast bounce" dynamic. It dramatically relieves repetitive strain (RSI), allowing you to code or game for 10 hours straight while your inputs remain incredibly fluid and rhythmic.

Conical Long Pole Stem

End Mushy Bottom-Outs
Conical Long Pole Stem & Pure HIFI Acoustics

Acoustic Redesign

Features a custom-engineered extended POM stem with a unique Conical (cone-shaped) bottom. Encased in a low-resonance POK top housing and a self-lubricating POM base.

Absolute Advantage

The conical tip drastically reduces the surface area upon impact. This completely eradicates mushiness, delivering a razor-sharp, crisp "early bottom-out."

Sensory Benefit

Every keystroke is a highly therapeutic ASMR concert. It explodes with a clean, concentrated, and beautifully resonant HIFI "Thock," absolutely devoid of cheap plastic rattling or metallic ping.

Factory Pre-Lubed & Frosted Light Diffuser

End Scratchiness & Dim RGB
Comprehensive Factory Lube & Frosted Diffuser

Premium Refinement

Undergoes Kailh's highest-tier "Comprehensive Factory Lube" (rails point-lubed, springs dip-lubed, leaf precision-tuned). Features an upgraded Frosted Light Diffuser embedded in the POK top housing.

Absolute Advantage

The extensive lube job saves you dozens of hours of tedious manual modding, delivering peak buttery smoothness out of the box. The POK+POM material combo naturally drops friction by 25%.

Setup Benefit

Drop them in and transcend. The frosted diffuser shatters harsh LED hotspots, casting a massive, uniform, and incredibly soft ambient glow that turns your custom board into a desk masterpiece.

Real Reviews from the Keeb Community

★★★★★

"The ultimate dual-threat for typing and gaming!"

"The 35g actuation is like water. I write thousands of lines of code daily, and my fingers literally never ache anymore. The crazy part is the 20mm spring—it bounces back so aggressively that double-tapping in Valorant feels incredible. No mushiness at all."

"The sound from the Conical stem is absolutely insane."

"I've never seen a conical bottom on a stem before, but wow, it works. The sound is so concentrated and sharp. It delivers that incredibly pure, deep HIFI 'Thock' with zero metallic ping or scratch. Plus, the pink and grey colorway is gorgeous."

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Both switches share the exact same premium materials (POK+POM), pure HIFI acoustics, and 1.2mm fast-trigger actuation. The ONLY difference is the operating force:

Butterfly Love (35gf): A feather-light, cloud-like experience. Perfect for users who type heavily for long hours or gamers who need the absolute fastest, effortless response.
Butterfly Dance (45gf): A golden, balanced experience. Provides a slightly firmer, more authoritative resistance for standard typing and gaming.
It is perfectly balanced. While the 35gf operating force is incredibly light and the 1.2mm actuation is lightning-fast, the switch is equipped with a 20mm extended spring. This long spring provides excellent "pre-load" resistance at the very top of the keypress, comfortably supporting the weight of your resting fingers. It prevents accidental "fat-fingering" while keeping purposeful keystrokes incredibly fast and fluid.
The impact is massive. Standard linear stems have a flat bottom and long travel, leading to a mushy collision with a wide surface area—resulting in a hollow, scattered plastic sound. The Butterfly Love's conical (cone-shaped) stem drastically reduces the contact area upon bottom-out. This creates an extremely sharp, highly concentrated, and pure HIFI "Thock" or "Clack" that custom keyboard enthusiasts actively hunt for.
Absolutely not. The CP Switch PRO series utilizes Kailh's highest-tier "Comprehensive Factory Lube." The slider rails are point-lubed, the springs are dip-lubed, and the leaf contacts are precision-tuned. Combined with the naturally self-lubricating POK and POM materials (which reduce friction by 25%), you get peak buttery smoothness and zero spring ping right out of the box. Hand-lubing is completely unnecessary.
Yes, you can! The two extra plastic legs on the bottom of the switch provide extra stem stability and eliminate horizontal wobble on plateless PCBs. If your PCB only supports 3-pin switches, simply use nail clippers or flush cutters to snip off those two side plastic legs flat against the base. They will fit perfectly, and doing so will not void your warranty or affect the switch's electrical functionality in any way.
