gateron switches on kebo.store webshop?
« on: Fri, 30 December 2022, 09:16:03 »
wondering if its just me or are these two sources not actually matching up with each others as far as colour coding seem to go?

I don't get it. You mean that the colors are off color from each other? In anyhow they are the same switches.

I think he means that the described actuation force and the color coding of it are different between the sources:
Switchkebo.storegateron.co
Silent Yellow35 g50 ± 15 g
Silent Red45 g45 ± 15 g
Silent Black50 g60 ± 15 g
Silent Clear50 g -
Silent White-38 ± 15 g
Silent Brown45 g55 ± 15 g

A yellow switch is a light switch at Kebo, but a medium switch at Gateron, and a White switch at Gateron is light, but the similar-looking clear at Kebo is a medium switch. It is interesting to note that the differences between Kebo and Gateron are within the interval that Gateron describes (± 15 gf)
