topre 45g alternatives

I know there aren't exact matches but I am looking for a cherry mx compatible switch that weighs and feels similar to topre 45g.

How do you compare mx clear, Ergo clear, box brown, box royal, zealios or other switches to topre 45g?
And topre 45g feels heavier than a cherry brown, what spring should I use when I mod a switch?

SpAmRaY:
If you want the feel of topre get topre.

The reason is, I want to build another dactyl. But I don't think i can use topre switches easily.
So, I plan to build a dactyl with a topre-like mx compatible switch.

I think matias quiet click is similar to topre 45g but that's alps, as for cherry zealios 67g "might be similar" maybe some silencing clips can help simulating that rubber feel?

ju6ju8Oo:
I feel that cherry mx brown feels a lot lighter than topre 45g.
Some redditors recommends Box brown.

Another GH thread said 45g topre is actually with 55g actuation force.
Matias Quiet-Click Switch comes with 60g actuation force. In therms of weight, does it feel heavier than topre 45g or just about the same?
