KMAC with Red Alert set from sixty
mkawa:
are 50g springs clear springs?
demik:
it's a custom spring if im not mistaken.
clears are 55, blacks 60 and reds 45. so, not as light as a red, but not as heavy as a black.
topre is MX form?

It is likely that they are custom springs. Also, I think clear springs are much heavier(require much more force to depress) than 50g.
I wonder if I should try to get one this time.. The pricing of the so-called defective package is 220000 KRW (about 200 USD) However, even if you get a hold of the package(I think it would be tough to get one), you would still need to get parts such as switches, stabilizers, and key caps not to mention you would have to assemble it yourself or have some one do it for you at about $50 (or more if you want more things done on your board).
From the picture, I see the switches are sticker modded, possibly lubricated. I lubricated my Poker with Krytox and it feels very different and smooth. It also sounds different (very little rattling noise).

i have no idea what you're talking about

I don't know what you mean..
OP states it is 50g spring and I said I think it is custom spring and 50g spring is different from springs from clears.
And why are you suddenly talking about 62g spring and Hooke's law? If you are talking about the reason for custom springs, I believe it is because they want different force. They are not making clones of Cherry original springs with same specification from just different materials.
