Bias effect kicking in already?

[Parak]

So, I currently have two cherry brown keyboards: G80-8200HUAUS and G80-1838HPU. The problem is that the former's key feel seems lighter with less tactility. At first I thought that it might have been something obvious like heavy switch wear, but it's uniform through both of the boards. I haven't done a force or spring/stem comparison yet, but I wanted to check first if I'm just apparently growing insaner thanks to you fine lot ¬_¬

Both were used, with the 8200 showing a certain shine on most of the letter keys but the feel of it is definitely (unless... more bias?!) consistent all over, down to every macro and function key. My kingdom for a proper force meter

Hmm. It's not impossible, I suppose. I finally managed to locate a few buttons that are somewhat firmer, but this would mean that the keys on this keyboard were used almost completely uniformly.

In any case, I'm definitely curious as to how many nickels are needed to actuate a new (or nearly) brown switch with a double shot keycap on it, as a non-scientific test.

Try keys like Print Screen and Scroll Lock since hardly anyone presses those.  While it's more than likely switch wear, there could be some slight differences in manufacturing runs.
