Title: Holy Panda Alternative?
Post by: adamchevy on Fri, 09 March 2018, 16:39:53
I'm starting to realize that I might have to go with an Alternative Switch for the upcoming Rama M60-A than I previously had in mind. Does anyone have an Alternative that they would recommend?

Have you tried the BOX Jades? Personally loving them (also looking forward to the M60 release).

Pandelios. Panda housing, zealio stem and sprit springs. My endgame switch. Got 78g ones in my tx1800v2 and Zilent variation in my Noxary 268

I haven’t tried the box jades or pandelios. I’ll give the Jades a try, but Panda switches are out of stock, and theirs no telling when they will be back in stock.

r2 panda switches sometime in the future.  holy pandas are better than zandas/pandelios whichever you want to call them.  Nicer, smoother bump.

That’s the best news I’ve heard all day. R2 pandas would be great. Maybe they can just make Holy Pandas next time.

You could always do Salmon on Ice - Halo stems in Outemu Ice v2 housing.

Having tried both personally I prefer lubed Pandelios. But that’s what’s great about this hobby, tons of choice :)

Halo Stems in Outemu/Zealios are an ok alternative, there really isn't anything close though  :D
