Title: CM Storm Mechanical Key Switch Tester NOW ON SALE (North America AND EU!)
Post by: CM-Rajiv on Fri, 06 December 2013, 13:58:10
Hey guys,

Our initial batch sold out fast, but we're back in stock!
Also, our EU team noticed all the comments and feedback so they added it to their store as well.

The way this works is the unit costs $15, but you get a $15 credit towards any keyboard purchase. Works the same for EU with their currency as the credit.
If you're buying from the US store, I'd recommend a TK Green or the new MECH ;)

Shouldn't this be in your vendor forum??

Or even classifieds?

Does it connect to a computer or is it just switches mounted in plastic?

I'd love to see an aluminum keyboard from you all with a slightly less… elaborate… design.

this is excellent.  i have always wanted to try before i buy with mech keyboards, but even at microcenter you cannot try all the different types of switches.

Meh, 22€ is a bit too much for shipping only. ;[ Just bought x2 TK's and x2 Rapid's. Both in blue and red. Would love to try out the brown ones.

I was thinking of taking advantage of the switch tester-offer Cooler Master had on their site....and I could only find 1 QFR and that one had blacks :/

... plus $40 shipping ...

(actually US$42.55, based on my recent purchase from them of a Ducky Yellow, and the total works out slightly higher in AUD)

What happened to this over here in Europe? The link leads to "The page you were looking for appears to have been moved, deleted or does not exist. " Searching for it leads nowhere and the "new and improved" CM forum turns up nada.


Sorry for the necromancy, but I am a licensed wizard.

Huge bump, I know, but is this going to be coming back in stock any time soon?

I already have a tester coming in the mail soon but I really like the design of this one.

Another huge bump, is there any news if these will ever come back in stock for the US?
