MX Cherry Clear switches, alone or on keyboard.
« on: Thu, 19 May 2011, 13:13:26 »
Hi. I would like to purchase some Cherry MX Clear switches. Preferrably just stand-alone, but I will accept them on a keyboard aswell. I am using these to change my switches to "Ergo" clears.

Thanks much!

I'm pretty sure that these boards have cherry clears. He accepted my offer for $20 for 2 boards.

Seems they often come with MX Browns.. a gamble. I'll give it a try, thanks.

I have some but I would need to pop em off or I can ship you the keyboard(probably cost more to ship), it doesn't have keycaps though.  I can't ship to you right now since I am busy with school but maybe later I could. Preferably you should be in CONUS.

I got mine from him, has clears.  Another member asked him to check all of his boards, and he replied they all have clear switches.

The part numbers for the clear stem (white stem) MX are MX1A-C1NW and MX1A-C1NN. The NW version is for PCB mounting as it has 2 additional mounting pins for added stability. The NN version does not have the extra pins and is designed to be mounted into a metal face plate. For any questions contact Cherry Support at keyboardsupport@zf.com.

I'm currently offering a barely used, half-year old black G80-3000LQCDE-2 with clears on deskthority. Tried to get used to that keyboard again and again but just couldn't, so it spent a lot of time gathering dust in the cupboard. Switched to browns now and so far I'm pretty happy.

However it'd be 40€ + shipping and it's located in Heidelberg, so it would only make sense if we're on the same side of the ocean ;)
