Title: where to buy Kailh switches in Europe?
Post by: Naweo on Sat, 02 July 2016, 05:54:25
Hey!

I wanted to stock up on kailh switches. Specifically the ones with the housings matching kailh red switches.

would kailh black switches use the same housing as kailh red switches? Maybe linears and non-linear switches uses the same housing?

I found some boards on amazon.co.uk, but not sure they are legitimate.

Is it possible to buy kailh switches seperately somewhere?

Thanks!

Hey Naweo,

Sorry for the really late reply. I can bulk buy these for you if you're still interested?

Why are you necroposting a 6 months old post...?

It's called efficiency because starting up another thread is not only useless but not necessary at all.

Nothing worse than having hundreds of threads describing the same question or inquiry over and over again.  Far better to keep it down to the bare minimum for users to access at any time.

I think making a new thread makes most sense, as the OP surely has obtained what he want by this point (6months!) and someone just pops up offering switches to them?

In some cases I do agree with you in terms of efficiency, but it just doesn't really apply to this case.

Somewhat related - does anybody know how to source Kailh SMD switches? Can't find them anywhere.

Are you looking for RGB Kailh switches?

I understand it's crazy as it's 6 month old, but just trying to help out a user. I have no need to open a new thread.
