Perhaps start a groupbuy thread and sell them in packs of 10 or something to let us have a chance to test them?

I've yet to feel the tactility of this switch, but I could see it working as a sort of ergoclear. Normal ergoclears apparently jam on occasion, the smaller bump could fix that while still being more tactile than browns.

I'm not much of a light switch person myself, but I wouldn't be opposed to giving one a spin.

I'd like to try on them if I could.
And pink switches looks really good the keyboard anyways :)

I am not a Cherry person, but an ergo clear that does not jam seems to me like the perfect Cherry switch, or at least tied with the jailhouse blue + lighter spring.
"The Trump campaign announced in a letter that Republican candidates and committees are now expected to pay “a minimum of 5% of all fundraising solicitations to Trump National Committee JFC” for using his “name, image, and likeness in fundraising solicitations.”
“Any split that is higher than 5%,” the letter states, “will be seen favorably by the RNC and President Trump's campaign and is routinely reported to the highest levels of leadership within both organizations.”"

Very interested, also in other stem "mods" like clicky clears or clears with a bigger tactile bump :)

Everything seems so legit, especially with the thread title "I’m not bootleg." I see no reason these would at all wind up being fake.

well, nothing's fake.. it just might not be officially the cherry mx brand...

I find this silly because both mx blue and mx brown feel exactly like mx red/black if you are typing fast enough...

if you lube the switches, the difference is even smaller.

I see the center stem is shorter.. this is good i guess, since that means you can end up with oil pool at the bottom of the reservoir without causing as much suction..

With the exception of "unlubed mx clears"  all other Mx-es feel linear when you're going full speed.
