I have never used the Green so i can't comment on that. However, the blues on my Das, Poker, QuickFire have all had failed switches. It's unfortunate because i really love the blues. They are one of my favorites but i have to be cautious when i buy my next cherry mx blue. If i wanted my keyboard to sound like cherry mx red i would have bought a cherry mx red keyboard.
Bought a new BWU to test blues once again, not happy at all with the switches. Considering paying somebody to mod it to clears or ergo clears.
Yeah, a few keys won't click. I've posted it in other threads, sorry ;D
Edit;
and also voted in the poll XD
My Green board (which I just sold) clicked 100%, as does my Blue Choc Mini.
Both were produced in 2012.
What brand was your Green board?Ducky
Voted. I've owned a Filco with blues from 2009 or so and a CM QF with blues from 2013 and both had one switch that didn't click. I just swapped the switches out and went on with my life.

If Tp4tissue was a Cherry MX switch, he would be a clicky green.

Sir, I have no grasp what you're insinuating, but am inclined to be -highly offended.

You are harder to push than a blue, but you are still clicky. Quite rare, but still sought after.

Stop coming onto me.. we're both dudes. >:D
Hard to get, but once you have you get a satisfactory click after a push

My Filco with Blues has a non-clicking switch (Tab), which is not as annoying as a letter key.
I still don't know what to do with it since it is plate mounted and I am not really skilled in soldering. :(

1- Make sure you vote
2- I never replaced a switch myself. We need to do little research on how to do it OR return that thing backs to its maker and get a replacement.
Anyone knows where we can buy GREEN MX?
Or maybe older switches are less prone to non-clicking. Somewhere I read that with the rising popularity of MX switch-based keyboards, Cherry might have had to ramp u production of switches with a slight loss of quality control. Or maybe there is a certain percent of faulty switches in each batch, and more batches are being made so more faulty switches are escaping into the wild.
idk.. giving the Germans the benefit of the doubt,, their side of quality control is probably the same....
So.. we're likely just seeing more REPORTS of switch irregularities proportional to total volume sold/produced.

A quick DIY invention i made that might help you guys. I also posted it in the Other non clicking thread
It is designed to Press the keys REALLY fast via attachment to a variable speed power drill.

Some sex toys might be softer and less risky to achieve the task you are proposing.
It even made me think of something out of an electric tooth brush.
Ducky with greens (December 2012) and Ducky with blue/green/white (Feb 2013) all click with no issues :)
Good for you.
I'm uber jelly of your Ducky Pro LE PBT with Green. That was my first choice but was out of stock.
I fold back on what seams to be a deal... 88$ CM QFR Green.
You will definitely love the greens. Although I would definitely prefer the Ducky over the QFR; at 88 dollars, the QFR is an incredible buy. Especially considering the ~60 dollars price premium of the Ducky
