Title: Switch Examples?
Post by: TGShadow69 on Mon, 27 August 2012, 15:38:37

I was wondering if there was anything like these,

but for other switch types, or where could one get examples of switch types might be a better question to ask.  I am wondering this because I am debating between buying a keyboard with browns or reds in them.

You could always just buy some switches (http://www.wasdkeyboards.com/index.php/products/keyboard-parts-1.html) on thier own.

Sadly i dont think there is any other way than to buy both boards, try them lightly to see wich you prefer and then use your right to return x-item within x days if still in mint condition (different companies have different policies afaik) to return the one you didnt want and get your money. ive heard though that you dont have this right in all countries, but here in sweden you always get a so called "open deal" wich means you have the right to return something within 3-5 days if its still in mint condition.

Thats perfect thanks, although i still kind of like the idea of having them on a key-chain, but this is perfect.

Just buy the keychain, pull out the blue one and put the other one inside. Easy.
