Core Advantages: The Undisputed King of Budget Silent Switches
We know you don't just need a switch that "doesn't annoy others"—you need it to feel amazing, prevent fatigue, and be wallet-friendly. The Silent Yellow Jade is engineered to solve these exact pain points.
The Problem: Loud & Bothersome
Standard tactile switches clack loudly, easily disturbing those around you. Many budget "silent" switches use cheap dampeners and still suffer from scratchy friction noise.
The Problem: Harsh & Fatiguing
To achieve silence, many switches feel mushy or overly stiff at the bottom-out. Paired with heavy springs, typing quickly leads to sore, fatigued fingers.
The Problem: Insane Markups
Premium silent switches often cost an arm and a leg per switch, making a full keyboard build painfully expensive. Plus, many are notoriously hard to open for modding.
✨ Outemu Silent Yellow Jade: The ultimate solution offering a foam-infused POM stem, a cloud-like 21.5mm long spring, and unbelievable value.
Say Goodbye to Bothersome Clack
Foam-Infused POM Eradicates 95% of Noise
Traditional Issue
Standard tactile switches are notoriously loud, and cheap silent alternatives often suffer from abrasive scratchiness due to poor materials.
The Outemu Advantage
Features an innovative Foam-Infused POM stem, combined with high-quality silicone noise-reduction pads on the rails and base. Stem wobble is strictly controlled to under 0.5mm.
The Benefit
Turn on "Library Mode" anytime, anywhere. This comprehensive dampening design absorbs 95% of bottom-out and rebound noise. Even in a dead-silent dorm or bedroom, all you hear is a faint, muffled "thud"—completely eliminating the sharp "clack" and giving your family peace of mind.
Say Goodbye to Harsh Bottom-outs
21.5mm Spring for a Cloud-Like Soft Touch
Traditional Issue
To mask sound, many silent switches feel brutally stiff or suffer from severe "mushiness," turning long typing sessions into a painful chore.
The Outemu Advantage
Equipped with a golden 50gf actuation and a massive 21.5mm extended spring, perfectly balanced with a 2.0mm pre-travel and 3.3mm total travel.
The Benefit
It’s not just quiet; it’s a massage for your fingers. The 21.5mm long spring provides superb initial support and a snappy rebound, effectively neutralizing the "mushiness" caused by silicone pads. Pressing it feels like sinking your fingertips into soft cotton—light, gentle, and incredibly satisfying for hours of fatigue-free typing.
Say Goodbye to Insane Markups
Unbeatable Value & High Modding Potential
Traditional Issue
High-end silent switches can cost a fortune per piece, making custom builds prohibitively expensive. Plus, tight housings make them a nightmare to open for lubing.
The Outemu Advantage
Built on the standard V3 architecture with MX pins and easy-to-open latch housings. While factory-lubed, it leaves massive headroom for custom modding—all at a fraction of the cost of premium switches.
The Benefit
Achieve top-tier feel for pennies on the dollar. This switch has a phenomenal "base." If you love tinkering, a simple spring swap or a touch of hand-lubing elevates its smoothness and acoustics to rival the most expensive silent switches on the market. An absolute godsend for students and modding beginners.

Customer Reviews
★★★★★
"The absolute savior for dorm life!"
"This is the quietest switch I have ever used! Even in a dead-silent room, you only hear a very faint whisper. Now I can pull all-nighters typing essays in my dorm, and my roommates have no idea. Pure magic."
— @DormDweller, College Student
★★★★★
"Hand-lube these and they ascend to god-tier."
"The foundation of the Yellow Jade is insane. I swapped in 22mm dual-stage springs and gave them a light hand-lube. The feel and acoustics now rival premium silent switches that cost five times as much. Unbeatable value."
— @ModdingAddict, Custom Keeb Hobbyist
★★★★★
"Cloud-like touch, incredibly relaxing."
"This 'cotton-soft' feel is seriously addictive. The 50g force is just perfect—zero fatigue even after long typing sessions, and the tactile bump is noticeable but not jarring. If you want a quiet, highly comfortable typing experience, this is it."

It is exceptionally quiet, frequently described by users as a true "Library Mode" switch. Thanks to the innovative foam-infused POM stem and silicone dampeners, it eradicates roughly 95% of bottom-out and rebound noise. In a dead-silent room, all you will hear is a very faint, deep "thud", guaranteeing you won't disturb anyone nearby.
This sensation is born from the pairing of the 50gf actuation force and the 21.5mm extended spring. When pressed, it offers a gentle, cushioned resistance, much like pressing your fingertips into soft cotton. It completely avoids the dreaded "mushy" feel, instead delivering a light, fatigue-free, and gently confirmed tactile bump.
The Silent Yellow Jade comes pre-lubed from the factory on the rails and springs, so it is highly smooth and perfectly usable straight out of the box. However, if you are a modding enthusiast chasing perfection, its easy-to-open latch design makes it an incredible base for secondary hand-lubing or spring swapping, elevating its feel to rival top-tier premium switches.
Absolutely. The 50gf actuation force prevents accidental mistouches, and the 2.0mm pre-travel ensures rapid response times. If you live in a dorm and love late-night gaming (like MOBAs or RPGs), it allows you to enjoy mechanical tactile feedback without waking up your roommates.
Yes, you can! The two extra plastic positioning pins on the bottom of the 5-pin switch are designed to provide better stability on plateless PCBs. If your keyboard PCB only supports 3 pins, simply use a nail clipper or flush cutters to snip off the two small plastic side pins. It will fit perfectly without affecting the switch's function or lifespan whatsoever.
Both are excellent silent tactile switches by Outemu. The Silent Lemon V3 has a much lighter actuation force (35gf), making it ideal for extremely light typists. The Silent Yellow Jade features a 50gf actuation and utilizes the advanced foam-infused POM stem. Its tactile bump is more stable, and its noise reduction is more extreme, making it the better choice for users wanting balanced feedback and absolute silence.
