Title: Keycool 87 Stabs
Post by: Harms on Mon, 07 July 2014, 00:58:55
Hi everyone, I was looking at this Keycool 87. I was wondering if it had cherry stabs or co-star, thank you.

Unless they have changed it, my KeyCool 87 has Costar stabilisers.

It seems to be not clear to GH community about which stabilizer Keycool uses. Maybe I can help.

The old Keycool keyboards (KC87 and 104 generation 1 and 2, etc) used co-star stabilizers while the new Keycool keyboards (KC87 and 104 generation 3+ and those Kailh switch products) all use cherry stabilizers.

I guess it is because using cherry stabilizers can reduce the expenses of labour of installing keycaps.
