Alright, I've constructed a nickel tester out of the key tester and some leds. I used 7 red switches with their springs replaced. The keycap being used weighs 3.2 g so it's a little off, but it's the flattest key I have without sanding one down. The weight listed will be where the LED turned on.
For the sake of simplicity, I'm just rounding up the keycap to count as another nickel. You can see in the first switch that it activates with either 7 nickels or 6 nickels with the switch so it's probably somewhere in between the two, but if someone wants it more accurate I'll figure that out later.
I hope this will help rather than make more confusion, but let me know if you have any questions.
35 g spring - 35 g
40 g spring - 40 g
45 g spring - 45 g
60 g spring - 60 g
62 g spring - 65 g
67 g spring - 75 g
80 g spring - 80-85g
I don't understand this line:
>60g - Same weight as stock MX Black/Green/White
Someone please correct me if I'm wrong, but don't Black, Green, and White all have different weights?

Green and White have the same springs. Black is slightly lighter. [source: ripster's imgur album]

Maybe the click loudness threw me off. But the greens were more fatiguing.My green and white feel exactly the same.The whites I have used aren't as heavy as greens.I don't understand this line:

When I remembered which one was the green and which one was the white I could have sworn there was a differnce, but I don't know which one is what, so they feel exactly the same to me.Maybe the click loudness threw me off.

Also put green spring with a linear stem and compared it to a stock black by pressing them into each other. Black and Green are pretty close. But grey is much heavier.
Not the most scientific experiment but its what I got. Could be doing something wrong.
