Gateron Clear keyboards - What are my options?
« on: Sun, 25 October 2015, 21:23:20 »
I'm looking for a board that comes from the factory with Gateron Clear switches.

So far I've only been able to come across https://mechanicalkeyboards.com/shop/index.php?l=product_detail&p=1447
A V60 from mk.com

I've heard that Cherry is introducing a linear RGB backlit switch, which is kind of exciting as well, just hoping its as light as the 35g activation point of Gat Clears.

Are there any other boards that I've missed?

I have the same board in with Gateron Reds, trying to find something without floating keys! :)

Not sure if you're into Ergodoxes, but Falbatech can make them with Gateron Clears

I had the same question. So far we have
  • noppoo choc mini 84
  • Ergodoxes by Falbatech -- although currently I don't see a choice for Gateron Clears .... just Blues and Blacks...
  • Varmilo va87m
  • a V60 from mk.com

Any more?

This is the thread where you can see  that those new switches are between Reds and Blacks as force, about 55g.
